Beyond Critical - Chapter 22.1 (Patreon)

"You….know?" Akeno swallowed heavily, a distraught look appearing on her face.

It was almost fascinating how quickly such a confident, sexually bold, teasing demeanour could evaporate and be replaced by near the complete opposite in just a few scant seconds.

"Course I did," I replied with a shrug, "Like I said, I made sure to know who I was dealing with just in case. In case you forgot, I had no interest in joining at all, I'm not the type that likes to be a low class flunky."

Technically, he wasn't lying either.

Technicalities for the win.

He could have done this with a bit more subtlety, but he simply couldn't be bothered with it at this point. This day, had been rather trying for him and he'd lost much of his rather considerable patience.

"I…see…" Akeno trailed off, biting her lip, before giving a tight nod, "Yes, it's true. As you said, my father is Baraqiel a high ranking member of the Grigori, while my mother, was a shrine maiden who once saved him when he was wounded. Their meeting is what led to my filthy conception." she reached up to grasp her shoulder tightly as she trembled, tears beginning to bud in her eyes.

She looked up at him, meeting his eyes and as she did, twin wings erupted from her back, one dark and leathery, like that of a bats, while the other was filled with deep beautiful ebony black fathers like that of a majestic raven. Her fallen angel wing bore subtle distinctions that he noticed from those of Satanael's own. Her feathers appeared softer, more cushiony and almost inviting to his eyes, in contrast to the Cadre's which were thin and razor-like and looked like they could slice through skin if touched at the wrong angle.

'I wonder if I'll get dragon wings when I decide to fully transform?' he mused idly.

"There's no point hiding them," she said, "You see them? These corrupt and and disgusting black wings. It's the proof of my heritage, the reason why my family hated me so much and considered me tainted. It's only fitting I'd become a devil as well no? I'm a repulsive woman with sullied blood flowing through her veins and it only made sense to add the corruption of a devil on top of-

Akeno was cut off.

But not by Kaito's voice.

Rather, by the back of his hand meeting her cheek, the echoing of his backhand ringing through the room and stunning her silent.

It wasn't hard at all, definitely not enough to hurt a Queen like Akeno, but it didn't stop her from being stunned quiet and cupping her cheek in shock.

"Shut the hell up, nobody asked for your god damn sob story," he scoffed at her, "I don't need your freaking life story."

The tears trickled from her eyes down her cheeks, "Yes…I suppose you're right, who would want to listen to the tale of such a filthy disgusting-"

She stopped as he flicked her on the nose, quite hard, drawing a little yelp from her, "No, it's the simple fact that you being a half fallen angel doesn't mean jack shit to me, as far as I'm concerned, you being disgusting or not, is who you are as a person, And I don't know you enough know if you are or not," Kaito retorted, "Honestly, who the fuck even cares you're part fallen angel? Really, honestly, get the fuck over yourself. So you were born stronger than any human without an overpowered Sacred Gear could ever hope for, with an innate beauty that would make models weep in envy and even without being a devil would have probably have had a life span in the tens of thousands, boo fucking hoo."

"Ah…eh?" Akeno uttered, staring at him wide eyed and unable to form a response.

"I don't know shit about your situation or your sob story, but I'll tell you straight, my father never even knew I existed and my mother abandoned me, but I don't give the shit off of a camels ass, and you wanna know why?" Kaito growled at her, looming over the girl and looking her straight in the eyes, "It's because it won't fucking change anything. Saying your filthy, corrupt, disgusting and blah fucking blah, is an excuse to pity yourself, grow up, the only thing obscene about you is your absurdly obscenely sized tits. Well, that and the fact you've had the power to beat Riser yourself all this time and won't use it because boo fucking hoo nonsense?"

Akeno stared at him at wide eyed, wide mouthed and in total, absolute stunned shock.

Kaito sighed deeply, and ran a hand through his hair, "And there I go again losing my temper," he rolled his eyes, then shook his head and locked his gaze with hers once more, "Whether or not you're a shit person, comes down to you alone and nobody else. I don't know what happened between you and your family beyond some basic things I dug up, but in the end, fuck them, they've got no bearing on who you are now, so just wash your hands of them, suck it up, and be the best you can be, live your life and be happy, there's no reason why you don't deserve it."

"Even…though my family killed my mother because she gave birth to a girl like me?" Akeno's shoulders shook as she asked her question.

"Even then," he nodded, "You don't owe the world or anyone else anything for being born. You can do whatever the hell you damn well want with your life."

"…Ah…" Akeno stared at him open mouthed, before her lips formed into a watery smile, "I'm beginning to see why you've managed to get two girlfriends, you know just what to say, don't you?"

"Not really, I'm just winging it and telling it like I see it," Kaito rolled his eyes, before reaching over and with his thumbs to wipe away the tears that dirtied her cheeks, "Now come on stop crying, I can't exactly have you teach me how to use magic like this, and I really need to learn how to use a teleportation circle."

Without Yanagi and Irina to help suck out the excess dragon power that built up within him, it would get harder and harder to stop his full transformation into a dragon from progressing.

At this rate, he was going to need to just fly back early morning to get it done and then come back. It wouldn't be that long of a trip really, but it would be way more convenient with teleportation magic.

She stared at him, cheeks flushing once more with his thumbs on her cheeks, faces close together, before giggling lightly, "You know Kaito-kun, you need to be more careful," she said suddenly, "This is the kind of thing that will make girls fall for you."

"I literally just slapped you." he deadpanned.

"I'm kind of into that though," Akeno smiled at him prettily, "Since you know quite a bit about us, you probably know I'm quite the sadist, but I wouldn't mind being the M either, it sounds fun, though I think I'd prefer you slapping something else fufufuf!"

Kaito snorted and pulled back from her, "Yeah, whatever virgin." he shot back.

Akeno froze looking like a deer caught in headlights for a moment before shaking her head, "Isn't that better though, you'd get to break in and steal my purity all for yourself," she returned fire, ironically calling herself pure when moments ago she claimed she was disgusting and tainted, "I'm dummy thicc and ripe for the taking, don't you want to see if you clapping my ass cheeks will be heard by everyone?"

Kaito just stared. That was was a sentence that should never have been uttered aloud.

Akeno grinned and winked at him, "My coming onto you earlier was only partly a joke you know, I do find you rather manly and handsome and after our little chat here, I can't say my interest hasn't risen massively," she said, before cupping her huge breasts and holding them up to his gaze, "What do you say, I know I'm definitely not first in the running, or even second, but I don't mind being third place either, it might even be more fun that way."

Kaito simply nodded, "No." he replied bluntly.

"…No?" Akeno cocked her head to the side and just looked confused, she apparently didn't think he'd refuse the offer for a free third girlfriend like her.

"No," Kaito confirmed and then shrugged, "Don't get me wrong, you're gorgeous beyond belief, and the whole walking talking cock tease theme you've got going on? I'd definitely fuck you into the bed hard enough to break it and leave an imprint of your dump track of an ass in the mattress, but Akeno, I just told you, I don't know you. This is literally the first time we've had a proper conversation between us and it's got pretty heavy. You being sexy as sin itself, isn't enough for a relationship."

Akeno blinked, "….Oh…" she trailed off, looking a little lost. She let go of her breasts and looked at him a little befuddled, "Well, that makes this kind of awkward then doesn't it? Especially after I kind of poured my heart out and then what you said and now, usually this would culminate into kind of dating…"

"In an anime maybe, you've clearly been watching too much of it with Rias," he rolled his eyes, "A relationship isn't about lust, at least not to me. Actually entering a relationship, is a commitment. Like I said, I will happily make you squeal, but right now, I'm only committed to Yanagi and Irina, I don't know you enough to be willing to do that for you, at least not yet, who knows how things might change in the future."

His dick if it were possible would be smacking him silly for turning down such an offer.

"You're really mature, huh?" Akeno mused, shaking her head, "Any other boy would probably jump at the chance, even if they didn't feel anything for me, they wouldn't hesitate to use me as they pleased and toss me aside when they got bored."

"That's just not me," Kaito shrugged in return, "If you want me to just fuck your brains out, that's fine with me, I'm all for it. But if you want more than that, I can't give it to you right now."

"Ara, ara," Akeno cupped her cheek and stared at him hotly, "I can't say that blunt attitude of yours it isn't a bit of a turn on either. What if I say, I'm actually alright with that and would to put your boasting about leaving an imprint of my 'dump truck of an ass' in the mattress to the test?" she licked her lips and glided her finger down through the top buttons of her chest, unfastening them expertly and allowing a massive canyon of deep creamy cleavage to jiggle into view.

His dick practically roared to attention.

"I'd say you better be hopeful mouth isn't signing a cheque your ass can't pay." he replied, before stepping forward, unzipping his pants. He was going to call her bluff.

He yanked down his pants slightly alongside his boxers, allowing his semi hard cock to flop into view and loom menacingly above the older girl.

"Oh…dear," Akeno swallowed heavily, "That's…a lot bigger than I thought it was going to be."

He grasped it at the base and gave it a long stroke, "Ready to start squealing?" he smirked at her, the lust built up over getting worked up to have his way with Rias, and then Serafall as well and pulling back each time to be a good person finally boiling back up to the surface and overwhelming his normal sensibilities, "You'll be calling me daddy soon."

Akeno shuddered, "Sounds like a fun time, daddy~"
