His first
Akeno woke up feeling more light and relaxed than ever before.
She again look around and saw that the plate was gone, meaning a maid or someone took it while she was sleeping.

Although she was a bit embarrassed, she knew she needed a shower or a bath, so she got up and went to the bathroom.
While on the shower she began contemplating her situation.
What is she going to do from now on. She knew the agreement made by the two devils and the Himejima clan, the agreement that she had to stay with the crimson haired red girl named Rias.
Will she uphold the agreement. If she doesn't what will happen to her, will they just let her go, if so where would she even go.
Her life was saved by them and Akeno knew it was something she would always be grateful for and a debt she would gladly payback.
As she finished her shower and changed her clothes, she heard a knock and a maid came in telling her that her mistress who Akeno assume is referring to Rias wanted to meet her. Akeno followed the maid and soon reached Rias.
.
"Good morning"
"Um, good morning to you too"
"Rest well?"
"Yes, and umm, thank you for saving my life, I-I didn't get the opportunity to thank you yesterday, so thank you" Akeno said somewhat awkwardly bowing her head in gratitude.
"You're welcome, come sit down, have some tea. "
"Thank you"
"I know it's a recent and touchy topic but, what are you going to do after this?"
"Huh, wasn't it part of the deal that I had to stay with you?" Akeno asked clearly surprised.
"Indeed it was, but that doesn't you actually have to, you can but it'll be your choice. Just remember as long as you don't go anywhere near their territory they won't know" Rias replied
Akeno was very confused, they're just going to let her go? If she accepts where would she even go? She doesn't have any place to go. She's be on the road again struggling to survive.
"What if I decided to stay here?"
Rias was a bit surprised but truthfully answered "Then we will have to uphold the agreement and you will stick and work with me as a member of my peerage. You will also live here at the castle until I move out.
In return I and the Gremory family will provide you with everything you need. "
"What's a peerage?" Akeno asked meekly.
After Rias explained the concept of a peerage and Evil Pieces, Akeno was dumbfounded, isn't this the perfect opportunity to repay her debt.
This might be the only opportunity she could get to start anew, an opportunity to a new life.
"I-I'll do it, I will serve you as a member of your peerage to the best of my ability" Akeno declared.
Rias smiled and nodded "That's fabulous, and thank you for taking the offer. We'll decide what piece you'll take later on.
For now, let me give you a tour of the place, so you may get used to it. "
"No, thank you for giving me the opportunity Gremory-sama. .
?" Akeno said a bit confused on how to call her new king, employer, mistress?
"Please don't call me that, just call me Rias, It's fine I don't mind. "
"I understand, again, thank you for the opportunity Rias-san" Akeno said with a small smile.
And so the began a new life for Akeno, in a place she would soon call her home.

I'm on the base of Mount Takao trying to find a Tengu. Why? no reason I really just wanted to see one.
But instead of any Tengu I met someone far more dangerous and powerful. Someone I never expected to meet.
"What's a young devil like you doing here?" asked a very old looking man with a very abnormal looking head.
"Nurarihyon?" I muttered
"Oho, I'm surprised, I did not expect to be known by a young devil such as yourself" he said a bit surprised.
"You are the leader of ths east yokai faction in Japan, it's impossible not to know you, and to answer your question Nurarihyon-sama, I'm here to see if I could meet a yokai for myself but I did not expect the first yokai I met to be someone of your status. " I said politely.
"Oho, a polite Devil, haven't seen those in a while" he said with a chuckle.
"Umm, can I asked you a question?"
"You already did"
"I-"
"I'm just kidding ask away young one. "
"I don't think you're someone that would randomly appear in front of someone, so why me?" I asked.
"Just curious" he answered nonchalantly.
"Huh?"
"Anyway, want to see more yokai?"
"Excuse me?"
"Come on, I'm here to visit a friend of mine" he said as he start to climb.
What the hell is happening?
"You coming?"
Welp, might as well, what's the worst that could happen.
.
.
Sigh I should have known. Nurarihyon was known to have a mischievous personality and is a known troublemaker after all.
The old man just brought me inside a barrier, bringing me infront of a Shrine and just vanished, seconds later there's three spears aim right at my throat by three Tengus. All three having red skin and a big nose.
At least he didn't lie about me meeting more yokai.
"How did you get in here young devil?" one of them asked
"Would you believe me if I say Nurarihyon himself brought me here?" I said calmly.
sigh "Sadly yes, yes we can believe that. " The other one said as they retracted their spears.
"You were too calm boy, I was expecting more reaction from you" said the voice of Nurarihyon from the roof of the shine

"I did say I know about you, also I don't think you'd lead a boy your curious about to his death. "
"Ho~ I know you could easily handle yourself if things go bad"
"I could" I simply replied.
