Unlike what Grayfia thought, Zaydas didn't go to school… Or rather, he did, but he didn't. A clone created by him took his place at school while he wanted to spend the day with Grayfia.
In his words: We didn't even have a proper date, and we're already going to be parents. I want to at least take you on a romantic date while you can still go out and spend the whole day with you.
Grayfia, who intended to return to the Underworld to face her in-laws and talk about what happened, postponed the inevitable and admitted that she was very happy with what he did.
After all, it was her first time as a mother, and she admitted that she was feeling nervous, even a little anxious. It was also a fact that her anxiety and nervousness decreased in his presence.
...
As he walked down the stairs, Zaydas saw Grayfia in her 10 cm high heels, wearing a black bodycon dress with a V-neckline that highlighted part of her breasts. Her silver hair was tied in smaller double braids in the front and larger double braids in the back. On her lips, a beautiful smile was enhanced by black lipstick.
It was the first time he had seen her wearing black lipstick and… If he had to sum it up in a few words, he would say: She is breathtaking!
Was that all? Obviously not!
Grayfia was tall, standing at 1.75 m. That being said, it's easy to imagine how sexy and long her legs were, especially with her thick thighs. Now, add to that the image of her wearing black lace stockings and high heels—which made her 1.85 m tall—further accentuating her sculpted legs. She was simply stunning.
When she stood before Zaydas, she reached out, touched his chin, and seductively said, "You're drooling~"
Closing his mouth, Zaydas swallowed a gulp of saliva. His eyes narrowed dangerously: "How could I not? You look simply too beautiful!"
It was a sincere comment.
He truly believed that if she went out like that, she could cause an accident.
"Smooth talker." She rolled her beautiful eyes but soon smiled.
Her fingers slid from his chin before falling freely in the air, only to be caught by Zaydas' hand.
"Shall we?" he asked.
Nodding like a good older sister, she held his hand as they walked to the garage.
Naturally, he didn't take the keys to the conventional cars, but instead, the Lamborghini Veneno.
In the garage, when he pressed the unlock button, the doors lifted upwards like black wings.
Grayfia went to the passenger seat, and Zaydas took the driver's seat.
...
"Huh?"
Before Zaydas could leave the premises, Grayfia felt a strange sensation as if she were in the background, and then, she saw the scenery change, appearing on the road ground of the Underworld!
With a shocked expression, she looked at him in complete disbelief at what had just happened.
You see, it's not that teleportation is something rare, but rather the way it was used. He had even transported a car while driving, and to emphasize the strangeness even more, the moment they appeared, a truck simply passed right through them. It was as if they had become ghosts!
Smiling, he turned to her and said, "Grayfia-nee, it's still too early to be surprised."
Pressing the accelerator, the engine combustion exploded in a thunderous roar as the tires screeched, and the Lamborghini Veneno reached 100 KM/H in an instant. Soon, they were already at 150 KM/H.
Irresponsible? Maybe, if he were an ordinary human and didn't have 100% confidence in what he was doing, but at that moment, he had everything under total control.
Whether it was due to [Mana Perception], which made it difficult for anything to escape his notice, giving him an almost blind-spot-free vision, or his analytical power that allowed him to have everything under control.
Even when he reached 200 KM/H, it felt like he was just taking a simple drive.
Once Grayfia realized this, she relaxed. She knew him well enough to know that he wouldn't do anything reckless without being absolutely sure that they would be fine. Not to mention that even if they were in an accident at this speed, not even real damage would be inflicted on them—or even on the baby that was still forming.
With a soft smile, Grayfia asked, "What made you decide to come to the Underworld?"
The road in the Underworld was long. The Underworld itself was immense, and the road they were on was a straight path leading toward the entrance of a city.
When he heard her question, Zaydas turned to her without worrying about keeping his eyes on the road—after all, it wasn't really necessary. Then, he replied, "Although I love how beautiful you look, I also understand that if you appear in public in the human world, many will stop to stare at you... and that bothers me a little."
As for the Underworld? Heh... Anyone who knows Grayfia wouldn't dare be ignorant enough to do something foolish and ask to be beaten.
On the other hand, the human world is full of fools who can't resist chasing after a skirt, believing they might have a chance. After all, many strictly follow the philosophy: "I already have the no; the yes I will earn." Or even: "The worst that can happen is I get a no."
They were now in Lilith, the current capital of Satan's territory. The city was approximately the same size as Japan's capital, Tokyo. Culturally, it was no different, with very tall buildings and public transportation present. It had one of the most advanced hospitals, called the Serafall Memorial Hospital.
Speaking of the devil, they had just passed by public transportation and officially entered the city.
As the traffic increased, he slowed down, reducing his speed to less than half of what it was before.
Grayfia gazed absentmindedly at the street before turning to look at Zaydas. Her lips parted slightly until she asked, "Have you told your parents about us?"
Her question caught him off guard, but it wasn't entirely unpredictable. Zaydas answered after two seconds, "Actually, not yet. Although Mom and Dad probably already know that I love you."
"..."
Hearing his response, she looked down, blushing.
The sight of an Onee-san blushing while looking down, with the tips of her ears red, was simply a feast for the eyes. Zaydas almost couldn't contain the urge to pull her into his arms and kiss those black-lipsticked lips.
"So, should we talk about us with my in-laws?" Grayfia asked, timidly.
It was almost unbelievable. Her voice was like a siren's song, luring him into the sea, and her words felt like a magic spell designed to seduce him.
Zaydas' Adam's apple moved slightly as he responded, "Yes, let's talk to them about us."
Hearing this, a very charming smile appeared on Grayfia's face, and she nodded.
...
After parking, they took the elevator to the third floor of the mall.
Even though he wasn't used to going on dates, the basics were still the same—going to the movies, having dinner, strolling around the mall, etc.
First, he went to reserve their movie tickets. He had already checked which films were playing, and there was one about a forbidden love story between a Pure-Blood Devil and his Maid.
Just the fact that it was a romantic story and somewhat similar to their own situation made it worth watching. Not to mention that it had a great rating—9.4/10.
"It starts in an hour," Zaydas said. "How about we walk around and check out some stores?"
"I think that sounds good," Grayfia agreed easily.
As they walked together, several Devils turned to look in their direction. Many of them recognized Grayfia—after all, she had been involved in several important events in the Underworld, and her face was highly recognizable. On the other hand, Zaydas was an unknown figure, which raised questions and curiosity about who he was and why he was with Grayfia.
However, Zaydas ignored them all as he entered a women's clothing store with Grayfia.
...
After walking around for a while, the one-hour wait was almost over. Among the stores they visited, there was a baby clothing store. Inevitably, they stopped and looked around for a while.
