DxD 0101: Something Off

Her eyes widened as she realized that everything from before was an illusion, “So none of it actually happened?” She asked as she fell on the ground due to the disappearance of the table that she was leaning on.

“Oh no, some of it happened.” Abaddon clarified, “I still attacked you in the middle of the street and kidnapped you. It was just that instead of Kuoh, we teleported here. I’d already started the illusion in this room.”

“And where exactly is this room?” Sona couldn’t help but ask with a sparkle in her eyes. Even though she was still tied up and lying on the ground with a degrading-looking magic suppression collar on her neck, she asked Abaddon with academic curiosity.

“It’s an illusion chamber,” Abaddon told her and walked up to her. He grabbed her tied-up arms and pulled her up to her feet.

“You aren’t freeing me?” She asked him.

He just shook his head with a teasing expression, “That was the lesson part, there’s still more that I want to do with you.” Abaddon smiled as he created a leash that connected to the collar that Sona was wearing, “Follow me, pet.”

She felt a jolt run along her body as she saw the leash connecting to her collar. And Abaddon’s words only cemented that pleasure. Without a word, she followed him, being forced to hop due to having her ankles tied tightly together. It made her modest breasts jump up and down with each of her movements, giving Abaddon a mesmerizing view.

As they walked out of the room, they appeared in Abaddon’s dungeon. He said, “I’m gonna make you cum more than just once tonight. Imagine that you’re in front of that crowd whenever you cum. Let out all your thoughts and emotions and I’ll take them all.” Abaddon’s words embarrassed Sona and she looked down. But Abaddon yanked her leash and she was forced to look up at his face, “Understood?” He asked.

She nodded with an aroused expression, “Yes, sir…”

…

The next few hours passed by in a blur as Abaddon released all of his desires on Sona. Even though they still didn’t have sex, he ravaged her completely and thoroughly, to the extent that he and his dick would be on her mind for at least a week after that.

Abaddon brought the passed-out Sona to her personal bedroom and tucked her into bed before giving her forehead a kiss and leaving her to rest.

After that, he cast a magic circle and appeared in the Occult Research Clubroom as a familiar girly scream sounded out.

In that instant, he felt the encroaching influence of a domain over himself, ‘Did he just use Forbidden Balor View?’ Abaddon thought as a failsafe spell was activated that broke him from the influence of the encroaching domain.

He looked at Gasper, who was quickly running to the box in the corner of the room, and narrowed his eyes. In that instant, Gasper felt a chill run down his spine and couldn’t help but look over at Abaddon, “Y-you aren’t frozen?” He stuttered out.

“Release your ability, Gasper,” Abaddon said solemnly.

The meek femboy couldn’t help but listen to Abaddon as his ability deactivated. Just as Rias and the rest of her peerage came to their senses, they heard Gasper crying loudly as he ran into his box and hid.

“Leave me alone!” Gasper shouted from inside the box as Rias’ gaze went to Abaddon.

“Did you do something?” She asked him as she heard Gasper’s wailing.

“Why do you have to think that I did something?” Abaddon asked defensively.

“Although Gasper is a little meek, this kind of reaction would never come unprompted. Even if you startle him with your appearance, he would only hide in his box and nothing more.” Rias told him.

Abaddon shrugged, “His sacred gear doesn’t work on me.” He told everyone.

There was a collective sigh as Rias said, “No wonder he’s spooked.”

As Abaddon continued to hear the annoying half-vampire’s whining, he lost his patience and pointed at the box that Gasper was in. A read sheen formed around the box, isolating his cries from everyone, “Finally, some peace.” He said with relief.

He just got hostile looks from everyone.

“What?” He asked with his hands raised, “If Gasper was a girl, I would for sure go to town on her and make her forget any trauma with my boosted dick, but that’s not an option.” He shrugged, leaving everyone speechless.

“I think you should stay away from my Gasper.” Rias said with a frown, “Who knows what you’d do to him…” Her mumble did not go unheard.

“My Rias.” Abaddon said with a smile that made Rias cough as she looked away, “Say that again. I dare you. I’ll show you what I can do.”

“N-no need. I think everyone can attest that I just said that in the heat of the moment, I know that you’re a gentleman who wouldn’t lay a hand on his kouhai.” Rias’ tone instantly changed.

Abaddon’s gaze went to Koneko for a moment before he said, “Right…”

“Senpai just gave me a weird look.” Koneko instantly ratted him out.

“Koneko…” Abaddon said with an exasperated tone, “How could you betray me like that?”

“Humph…” She turned her head to the side.

“Anyway…” Abaddon changed the topic, “About Gasper, what’s the deal with him?” Abaddon asked, “I’m curious.”

“Get rid of that destruction membrane first, he could get hurt.” Rias pointed out.

“He’ll be fine.” Abaddon cast a simple noise reduction spell around the box. Now, they were able to hear Gaper’s whines, but they were much fainter than the previous ear-piercing ones, “Happy?” He asked.

“He’s a—“ Rias started but was interrupted by Abaddon.

“Something more than ‘He’s half-vampire and half-human. His daddy didn’t love him and he was ostracized.’ I can deduce all that. Vampire society is full of dickheads towards half-breeds. What’s the real trauma?” He asked.

Rias was speechless at how nonchalantly Abaddon talked about Gasper’s tragic past, “That’s it,” She could only shrug, “He wasn’t accepted by either his vampire or his human side. Even his death was because humans pelted him to death with stones, giving me the chance to reincarnate him.” She said, “He does have a friend who’s still in the noble Vampire house. She was the reason he got his cross-dressing habit in the first place.” She almost told Abaddon everything about Gasper.

“How tragic,” Abaddon didn’t seem to care, “Though, I’ve seen people in worse states.”

“If you aren’t going to help then go away. Gasper’s situation doesn’t need your kind of tough love.” Rias said with annoyance.

“When did say anything about tough love?” Abaddon asked before saying, “Gasper needs constant reassurance and a whole lot of therapy.”

“See, you say that, but at the same time, you’re acting like his mental state doesn’t matter,” Rias said and put a hand on her head while feeling stressed. It was at times like this that she felt like Abaddon was on a completely different wavelength from her, “Can you send Xenovia and Aika here? We could use their help.” Rias said.

“You sure?” Abaddon asked, “You’re asking to increase the number of people while trying to get someone with agoraphobia comfortable.”

“I can’t get you, Abaddon.” Rias sighed tiredly, “At first you were acting like Gasper’s mental problems were just things that he could shrug off, but now you seem to understand exactly what his problem is. My head is hurting.”

“I have a different thought process when it comes to these things, Rias,” Abaddon told her while walking to the couch. On the way there, he grabbed Akeno’s hand and pulled her with him.

Rias did her best to ignore his actions and said, “Can you elaborate?” She asked.

Abaddon sat on the couch and pulled Akeno onto his lap, “A-kun?” She asked confusedly.

“Shh~” He put a finger on her lips and brought one of his hands to her chest before slipping his hand between her undershirt and groping her tits.

Humming comfortably as he teased Akeno, Abaddon turned back to Rias, “I have extensive knowledge of psychology and understand that everyone is different and has different tolerance levels. I’ve seen people who were in worse states getting back on their feet by themselves so I don’t think that Gasper’s problem is that big of a deal.” He said, “Although it’s not a big deal to me, to Gasper, it’s everything. And I do understand that, it’s just that I don’t treat it as if it’s the end of the world.”

Rias felt that she was getting a bit of a glimpse of how Abaddon’s mindset really worked, but she was still not relating to him very much, “I see…” She still nodded.

“I’m a contrasting being, Rias. You’ll need more than just a month or so to understand me.” He freed Akeno’s bosom and slid her off of his lap. She was already a little dazed after experiencing his groping for less than a minute.

Abaddon smiled at Akeno and caressed her hair gently before giving her a light peck on her lips, He told Rias, “I’ll send Aika and Xenovia. You can deal with your peerage by yourself. I won’t interfere unless you really ask me to.”

With those words, he cast a teleportation circle and disappeared.

Rias was left staring at the spot that he disappeared from, “Does anyone else think that something was weird about him just now?” She asked.

“He starts acting weird every once in a while,” Koneko said. She’d been hanging out with him quite a bit recently because of her swimming lessons, “I’ve learned to not let it bother me.” She shrugged.

“He’ll talk about it when he’s ready, I guess…” Rias sighed before saying, “He’s gone Gasper, you can come out now.”
