"Ah, I'll be borrowing that dojo room as my workshop if that's fine. Also if Asia doesn't want many clothes then I'm pretty sure it can buy a few outfits for whomever goes with Asia while I work on things."
Ritsuka mentioned before walking out of the room. He didn't even seem to notice the stunned looks from everyone in the room with how nonchalant he was being at the moment.
"Um… uh… " Asia fumbled back and forth as she looked at the small pile of yen.
"Come along Asia. Let's go shopping." Akeno chuckled slightly as she stood up from the table.
"I'll stay and take care of the dishes." Kiba mentioned as he got up as well taking the plates over to the sink.
"Y-Yes… thank you Kiba." Rias muttered out slightly surprised still as Koneko assisted her to her feet.
With some shock still Rias put the money away in a purse. The fours ladies walked out of the manor. Ritsuka had already entered the room and closed the door, leaving the four curious about what he was preparing and his attitude during the entire conversation.
Kiba remained behind but decided not to bother Ritsuka since he felt responsible for Ritsuka's actions. He had mentioned to him all about Riser and the only response he saw was that he was ready to stand up for a friend.
Letting out an exasperated sigh, Kiba washed the dishes, hoping he wouldn't get blamed for Ritsuka's recklessness.
'Oh I did a stupid thing…' Ritsuka mentally berated himself. Ritsuka had made a show of himself being kind of generous and reckless all in the same swoop.
Seriously, giving the money he had gotten from pawning off two jewels he got from Ishtar's Valentine gift.
Ritsuka closed the door to the dojo and decided he needed to look over every servant he contracted with and figure out which ones were resistant to flames… or outright immune.
Summer BB was a choice… which was discarded as quickly as he had thought of it. That was the insanity calling and he'd rather not deal with having a potential last boss kouhai rooting around his head.
'Hopefully, I figure the right ones. I don't want my new friends to worry about something like this. Now who would have the best skills for the job.'
Ritsuka mumbled into his hand as he pulled up his communicator. While the communications function didn't work at the moment, it did have data on all the servants he held contracts with. He would find the right ones for the job soon enough.
Asia was still stunned. Akeno had to hold her arm just to keep her moving. Koneko did the same for Rias who was equally stunned but for entirely different reasons.
For Asia, the thoughts racing through her mind all wondered the same question. 'Why would he waste that all on me…'
She couldn't really fathom it and it left her a twitterpated mess. Her heart was thumping from how much he cared for her well being and the small longing for happiness she had held back so long from.
She remembered what happened that morning and shut down almost immediately. Luckily, Akeno caught her before she fell. The smile Asia got from her was far more knowing than she felt comfortable with.
For Rias, her thoughts were more focused on Ritsuka's words than actions. If what he said was true, he would be a self sufficient mogul without even trying should he become a jeweler.
It didn't help that he had said he could magically make more gems to use should he need more money.
Her mind wandered towards more intricate fantasies as she pictured Ritsuka and her working on new jewelry together. He soon presented her with something that could never be recreated even by the greatest artisans… then he would push her onto the table.
Before her mind could go wild, Koneko would lead her towards another path which broke the illusion she had crafted for herself.
Even though Akeno and Koneko were able to keep their wits about still, even they couldn't help fantasize… at least a little.
Simple days where they traveled across the world with him and did whatever crossed their minds. Akeno's were more implicit though which she kept hidden by her neutral smirk.
"Here we are. Let's find you something then Asia." Rias announced as they entered a clothing store and started taking stock.
"Seriously… damn it all." Ritsuka groaned as he was forced to use two Phoenix plumes for an alchemical potion.
Those were some of the most difficult materials to gather since they had to fight Amazoness Leaders or Shantaks just to get them to drop with any regularity.
The fact that it was random if they held any made it harder to part with them as they were mixed into a special potion meant for the fight.
It had taken him the better part of the day to get the formula for said potion and the memories of how it worked. He was glad it at least made ten doses from the concoction he made.
"Now I probably need familiars… so golems, crystal birds, or robots." Ritsuka muttered as he looked over Avicebron's card, Sitonai's card and Babbage's card.
Each had told him about how they used their specialties as familiars. He also looked through the craft essences for any particular chances for a familiar.
"Ah… this one will do." Ritsuka picked out a Storch Ritter card and three wire work bird familiars popped out into existence.
The three familiars flew around examining the area and an image appeared in his vision overlaid on his normal vision. The sudden double vision forced him to dismiss the card before it got any worse.
Ritsuka rubbed his now irritated eyes before using Sitonai's card… he needed to deal with the vision problem that day.
Asia stepped out wearing a simple white dress that Akeno had picked out for her. She didn't know why she was being so nice to her but didn't question it. There were many questions rolling around her head.
