CxC Chapter 10: Ridiculous Nunsense
🕑 Added 2024-12-17 17:58:26 +0000 UTC~Yuta Yukimura~
I looked with conflicted confusion at the nun who was face down, ass up on the ground, frantically grabbing garments off the floor. Reflexively my hand went into my pocket and took a photo of her rather large ass barely covered by her pure white panties.
...Man I really, really need to get laid. I am almost starting to dip my toes into the realm of the degeneracy of the perverted trio.
So, why was a nun here? In Kuoh? A known devil territory. Hell, the church shouldn't even have much stake in Japan anyway, Japan was Shinto territory, not Christian territory. And Rias didn't warn me about any Church people in town either.
Either she was here in secret, was a regular nun, or was here with ill intent.
Detective Yuta mode engage.
I narrowed my eyes and inspected the girl in front of me, she didn't give off the vibe of a combatant at all, in fact, she looked rather pathetic, picking up her clothes off the ground while mumbling embarrassment.
Seems like it won't be immediately dangerous to approach her and just ask what she is here for, so that I can report to Rias about what was happening.
But just in case.

[Uncommon - Natural Weapons]
Better be safe than sorry, if she does try something I can blast her with sand veil and gut her with Natural Weapons. Or try to and get murdered if it turns out she was stronger than Low Rank.
"Hey miss...? Could I help you? You look like you need some help." The girl turned around and looked at me like a lost puppy who just found their owner with how she just perked up.
She was a shorter girl with long straight blonde hair and green eyes, she had a rather sizeable bust, she looked rather adorable and like she wouldn't hurt a fly, or couldn't if she tried. She wore a dark teal nun outfit with light blue accents, a white veil over her head with light blue accents, a brown satchel slung on her right hip and brown boots with black straps in an X-shaped pattern. She also wore a silver cross necklace around her neck. Even her conservative clothes failed to hide her attractive figure.
I gave her a hand and pulled her up as she dusted her clothes.
"Oh! You speak Italian? I'm sooo glad! I got lost on my way and fell and didn't know what to do." Fuck, I didn't think that she wouldn't speak Japanese in Japan, but she doesn't seem to suspect that I am a devil even though I was a Japanese schoolboy speaking Italian to her despite not hearing her speak it.
She was either unaware of the supernatural or was just naive and innocent. Or she was pretending to not notice and I was about to get gutted by a Bible Blast™.
I replied while helping her pick up the clothes that had fallen out of her suitcase.
"Yeah, you can say I know a little Italian. So... what is a sister doing here? Visiting family? Or just travel?" I lightly probed as the girl beamed at me with a smile now that all of her clothes were back in her suitcase.
"Oh no, I was assigned to this church in town, I am glad to have met such a kind soul in this town, I have a hard time finding my way so I end up lost. This must be the Lord's work." My mind turned and I was still wary of Asia, she seemed kind and naive, too kind and naive.
I was confident in my ability to read body language but at the same time, I was facing my natural enemy here, maybe the moment I turn my back she would plant an appropriately cross-themed dagger in my back.
But operating under that assumption was simply paranoia, just be prepared for the scenario but don't assume it. Everything so far points to her being innocent. But just one thing doesn't add up.
"But isn't that church abandoned? As far as I know anyway." Asia tilted her head at my words, not understanding.
"Abandoned? Is it? Do you perhaps know where it is? Could you please help me find it? I have been trying to find it for the past four hours..." Asia said dejectedly as I updated my mental portfolio of her.
Growl!!!
Before I could respond however I heard a rumbling growl, like a mighty beast threatening my life with its jaws bared, I slowly turned my head to see Asia with her head hung and clutching her stomach.
"I-I also haven't eaten anything since yesterday. I am sorry for being such an inconvenience!" I turned my head and couldn't help but quirk my lips, laughter nearly escaping my throat before barely recomposing myself and turning to the girl.
"Nah, I don't mind it, want to join me for lunch?" I can't help myself, she acts like a kicked puppy, I want to pamper her. She quickly waved her arms.
"N-no I can't possibly impose and take advantage of your kindness!" I raised an eyebrow and lifted a corner of my lips.
"You won't, I was about to eat anyway and I'm rich. You won't be a burden." She still shook her head, was this girl a saint or something? Seriously, how can one human be this nice? You couldn't act this nice.
"Well, can you please do it for me? I don't want to eat by myself, I would appreciate the company you know?" She went to object again but another grumbling of her stomach cut her off, making her meekly nod. I chuckled, this girl was cute

"Thank you very much for the food Yuta-san, I am very thankful to the lord for allowing me to meet such a kind soul like you." Asia said as we left the Pizza place we had lunch at.
Asia Argento, that was her name, I learned after probing her for information a little at lunch. She was a nun who came here after being sent here by the Vatican, she was apparently supposed to meet someone who would have helped her to the church but they apparently pulled a no-show.
Also now I was certain Asia was just painfully innocent and kind, not acting as far as I could tell. Hell, I had to teach the poor woobie how to eat pizza.
I had to teach an Italian how to eat Pizza.
She was kind, adorable, helpful, innocent and downright saintly. I may have only known her for an hour but I would throw down for this adorable specimen.
I wish I had a girlfriend like her.
...Maybe I could? I mean it's kinda like Romeo and Juliet but instead, it's Saint Girl and the gambling devil. Whatever, I shook my head to get out of my thoughts.
"Alright, that should be the church, at least I don't remember any other in Kuoh. But are you seriously going to live there?" Asia beamed at me in happiness as I pointed to the abandoned church over the hills.
"Yes! Thank you so much Yuta-san! I cannot repay your kindness enough. May god bless your soul." I tightened my neck as I felt a piercing headache at her words, I was very good at making pain not show but that was seriously painful.
"Yeah, no worries, hey Asia-chan, want to meet me back here tomorrow at the same time? You know, we could walk around town and I could help you get adjusted." I not so subtly offered both a date and a way to keep an eye on Asia but I doubted she knew what a Date was.
"Ah yes, thank you so much Yuta-san, I will be back here tomorrow them." Asia said with a blush on her face. "Then I will see you tomorrow, I better get to the church now." I smiled a little.
What a nice girl.

Home sweet home, I feel like absolute shit.
After my meeting with Asia, I spent most of my day just working out and studying about devil stuff, I also did a contract just to get a Common Item Ticket that I would roll when I was feeling more alive. A bit disappointing but I couldn't just crank out a silver every time I guess, and to be fair my contract was a very easy one, trivial even so I didn't expect much either.
____________________________

So I was just completely spent, I just wanna crash out and watch the anime collected I borrowed from Morisawa.
I decided to cook up some salmon this time, Akeno recommended me to try cooking a variety of foods to learn more ways to cook and expand my horizons, and I found some fresh salmon being sold on the way home, it was a bit expensive and I definitely got a bit scalped by that old man but it looked like quality salmon so I bought it, not like I am begging for money considering I got another 100,000yen from my latest contract.
I started by putting some butter in the pan and heating it up before putting the cut of salmon in, I was making some pan-seared salmon steak, I carefully cooked the salmon while adding seasoning and using Pearl Jam, this food wasn't supposed to be anything special, just an overall boost to the vitality.
Leaving the steak next to the open window to cool down a tad I cut up some green veggies and prepped a plate but when I turned back to my steak there was now a black cat chewing on my steak, seemingly having smelt my goods and crawled through my window.
Just my luck. A black cat too, how fitting.
The cat and I locked eyes, a tense air formed, I looked at the steak it took another bite out of and sighed while straining a corner of my lip.
"You were hungry little guy?" I watched as the cat tilted its head at me before going back to eating the steak while I slumped my shoulders.
"Whelp, hope you enjoy my human portion of steak you ravenous beast." "Mrow." The cat seemingly replied to me in a manner that I would only describe as smug if it were an actual human. "Guess, I am making another steak for myself then."
I fired up the stove again and started searing another steak while, contrary to my expectations, the stray hadn't left my house but instead was now inside and watching me from the counter, or more importantly the steak I was searing.
"Seriously? Can cats even eat that much?" "Meow" "They do!?" Of course, I only pretended to understand the stray cat to amuse myself, I finished up my steak as the cat was still lazily waving its tail. I cautiously plated my salmon and sat down while the black stray followed me like the plague, eyeing my plate, the moment I took my eyes off the thing I felt like it would vanish.
"You already had your own." "Mrow." "This one is mine." "Mew."
I took a bite of my seared salmon while the black cat assaulted me with an intense gaze. I sighed again, moving my fork and cutting a portion out and holding it out for the cat that quickly gobbled it up without an ounce of hesitation, must be getting fed by the neighbours considering how fat it was.
"Such a hungry beast, I should probably give you a name to at least call you by, I'm tired of having to refer to you as stray in my monologue." I tilted my head as I inspected the cat eating my food, it looked like a stray but looked just about the healthiest cat I had ever seen. I took another bit for myself and gave another to the feline.
"Kuro?" The cat stiffened up for some reason as if I was about to take its food away, what a whimsical creature. "Nah, that's too boring and generic. From henceforth you are Bobby Black the 3rd." The cat lifted its head up from its meal and gave me a look as if I was a bug it just squashed. What an emotive specimen.
What a weird cat, maybe mana just does that to animals? Weird cats wouldn't even rank top 10 in the strangest stuff I have seen in this town.
"Yup, you are officially Bobby Black the 3rd." I reached out and booped the cat's nose, making it receive away and scratch my fingers with a hiss as I laughed, those are some sharp ass claws, holy shit.
"Hiss!"
"Haha, don't be so mean to be mean to me Bobby." Bobby hissed at me again. "You'll break my heart, your predecessors already broke my heart by leaving me behind, don't do me like that." The cat tilted its head at me.
"You act just like Bobby Black the Second you know? He had a ravenous appetite too, the little monster. Too bad that hawk grabbed him and tore him apart in front of me, birds are such assholes, still miss him. Even Bobby the first had it better and he got ran over in front of me." I didn't have a good track record with pets, I still remember that hawk making eye contact with me as it tore my cat in half and ate it on top of a tree in my backyard.
I hate birds with a passion, because one ate my cat and others keep shitting on me.
"Meow~" Bobby the 3rd rubbed up against my hand a little making me smile, cats were cute, Bobby sniffed my hand and rubbed against it again, making me chuckle and pet its soft fur absentmindedly, Bobby had really soft fur-
-Oh.
"You cheeky little bastard."
"Mrow~" I didn't know if cats were biologically capable of grinning but I felt like Bobby was definitely smirking at me.
The little feline fuck gobbled the rest of my salmon while it was acting cute and rubbing up against me. Betrayal, betrayal on all sides.
I sighed and petted the cat again.
"Whatever, you're lucky you are a cute little bastard."
":3"
What a temperamental, whimsical little creature.
A/N: Asia, the eternal woobie makes her appearance, Yuta carefully steps around her and gauges her threat while Asia is probably the most harmless creature on the planet. What did you guys think about Yuta and Asia's interaction? I hope it felt natural.
Also, Yuta gets a pet-ish, every guy needs a whimsical and temperamental cat sidekick, and what better companion for an unlucky guy than a black cat? What did you guys think about the totally normal and mundane cat Bobby Black the Third? Did you like Bobby and her interactions with Yuta? I'd love to hear your thoughts about her.

Being both a black cat owner and a cat lover in general. I need the location of the POS hawk, because it needs to be Bobby's (Kuroka's) next dinner. I will gift the corpse to Yuta, for him to feed to his new kitty.
Colin Peden
Yup, it can only be that sexy shortstack cat.

I got distracted and forgot which chapters these were from so I'm posting them here as I continue to read "Do I need a reason to want to occupy my new cute servant to school?" accompany? "Yup, you are officially Bobby Black the 3rd." I reached out and booped the cat's nose, making it receive away and scratch my fingers with a hiss as I laughed, those are some sharp ass claws, holy shit. it retreat away?

A lot of people keep Asia as this saintess damsel and she is… but most forget she is an absolute goober who throws herself in whatever situation if it means she won’t get left behind by her Onee samas. Can’t wait for more goober antics. And we all know the cat, you gonna make it so Koneko somehow recognizes her or not and little Bobby will just chill in his backpack like a waifu Morgana? Either way with some senjutsu and Yuta not really having a filter, Bobby is gonna realize that her new master/friend/husband isn’t all that well put together. Maybe she can help with some ritual skinship.

I felt physical pain when the cat used an emoji
