DxD : i am the honored one

"Wait a moment Shirone. You'll be able to talk to your sister soon."

"Really? I'll be able to talk to Oneesama?" Koneko asked with anticipation in her eyes.

"Yes, but let me talk to her first. Just be quiet." After a while, Hanzo's phone vibrated and he picked up.

"Nya, hello Hanzo. Vali said you wanted to talk to me. Do you miss me already?" Kuroka's voice rang out cheerfully. Beside Hanzo, Shirone started to tear up again after hearing her sister's familiar voice.

"Haa… yes, I missed you Kuroka." Hanzo replied happily.

"Really? Then you should come back to our group. Vali and the others miss you a lot. Nya." Kuroka said. And Vali's mumble rang out, "Who remembers him? I'll beat him next time. Tell him to prepare himself." 

"Haha I really want to return to the group but I'm busy right now." Hanzo said with a laugh. 

"Busy? You're just busy with your cunning thoughts. Nya." 

Shirone who was beside her couldn't help but be surprised when she heard the conversation between Hanzo and his sister. They looked like old and close friends. 

"Don't say that to me Kuroka. I'm not a cunning person." 

"Really? Don't fool me, I know you very well Nya~ You always have shady plans going on in your head. Also, where are those people, are they with you?" 

" Hmmm... You mean Makima and Izuna? They're not here right now." Hanzo replied.

"Did you tell those two to help you do shady things?"

"Hey, don't act like I'm some crime boss sending his underlings to do shady things." Hanzo replied, earning a relaxed laugh from Kuroka.

"I missed you Hanzo, it would have been great if you hadn't left the group that day. You're still in Kuoh, right? Maybe I'll come visit you in a few days. Nya."

Koneko listened attentively to Hanzo and her sister's story. Even though she didn't understand everything they were saying, Kuroka mentioning that she would be going to Kuoh in a few days made Koneko very happy.

"Haha… One mountain can't have two tigers. Besides, I had people supporting me at that time." Hanzo replied.

"I see… Makima and Izuna are very loyal to you and they don't want to work under Vali's command."

"Let's drop that topic. I called you because I wanted to discuss something with you."

"Nya? What did you want to discuss with me?"

"It's about your past."

"About my past? Did something happen?"

"It's nothing serious… I've been working for Sirzechs Lucifer recently, he promised that he would try to investigate and help me clear your name." Hanzo casually dropped the bomb to Kuroka and Koneko.

"You work for Sirzechs Lucifer?" Kuroka shouted in surprise. Even the others around her started whispering after hearing the news.

Even Koneko was surprised and couldn't believe what she had just heard. The person beside her was working for one of the four satans and was also her master's older brother.

"Why are you surprised by that?"

"Why can't I be surprised when I hear that you're working for a satan?" Kuroka said.

"But what do you mean by helping me? Nya. You're working for Lucifer because you want to help me clear my name… don't tell me…"

Hanzo wanted to explain that what Kuroka thought was a misunderstanding. He only saw her as a good friend and what he helped her with was simply because it was convenient. However, Hanzo didn't have time to explain. Even though Hanzo couldn't see Kuroka's face right now, he knew that she was blushing fiercely.

"Hanzo, you love me?… Nya." Kuroka hesitated. Koneko who was standing beside her couldn't help but think that Hanzo liked her sister. If that happened, she would definitely support Hanzo and her sister getting together.

"…Kuroka…"

"Next time, let's make kittens together." Kuroka said, causing Hanzo to sigh. Koneko was surprised at her sister's shamelessness.

"She used to tease me like that many times before, but it seems like she's serious now." Was what Hanzo thought before he changed the topic once more.

"Kuroka. We'll talk about that after we meet. Right now, I have something else to tell you."

"Alright, we'll make kittens when we meet. Wait for me for a few more days, Nya."

"…"

"Kuroka, I recently fought with Shirone and her master."

"Nya? You fought with Shirone? Don't tell me you bullied Shirone."

"Don't get the wrong idea Kuroka. It was just a small skirmish and I used hypnosis on her…" Hanzo started to tell what happened, causing Kuroka to worry about Koneko's condition.

"Is Shirone okay? Vali, I need to go see my sister. I won't be participating in this mission anymore." Kuroka said in a panic.

"Calm down Kuroka… it's fine now."

"No… It's not fine at all. I need to see Shirone." Kuroka said.

"Calm down. I talked to Shirone about her losing control… Actually, Shirone is sitting next to me."

"Nya?"

"I told her about what you did in the past… That's why she's really wanting to talk to you right now." Hanzo said and handed his phone to Koneko.

"… Shirone?"

"…Oneesama."

Hanzo decided to leave the room to give Koneko and his sister some space.
