Chapter 294: Grayfia’s Request
"So, Adam will you do it with me?" Xenovia asked again.
"...Let's take it slow. It isn't something you can do that willy-nilly." Adam cleared his throat.
"I understand, now I know that there is a chance." A smile appeared on Xenovia's lips. So, far she had shown minimal expressions, but now she showed a proper smile.
'She got him with that one,' Akeno giggled looking at Adam's realization.
But, before he could tell her off other members of the Occult Research club came in.
"Oh! Sensei! Where have you been man?" Issei ran in as soon as he noticed Adam. A step behind Asia also greeted him with a polite smile similar to Kiba.
"I was a little busy." Adam sighed engaging with them in a short conversation.
Koneko however went straight for the new cookie jar as soon as she entered. The sleepiness vanished from her face as she took the first bite. All active peerage members gathered in one place for lunch today. Grayfia too made her entry and lined the table with the best dishes she made since morning.
She stayed behind to practice from the books Adam lent Roygun and others. It did take her a little while to get used to the techniques, but she did well enough for everyone to devour the food like they had starved for days.
Grayfia made sure to make enough for everyone considering their appetite. Even then, her eyes were only fixed on Adam's reaction. Though, he wasn't in any position to think about the taste of the food at the moment.
"H-Here." Rias' face turned red.
