Chapter 54 An Anon commissioned this chapter.
The reactions to the Gremory Peerage learning could be summed up by Koneko's reaction. "You two snuck away from a party you both set up, and your ecchi actions resulted in Rias being knocked up... Jake you are a pervert."
I thought Rias was the pervert with the impregnation fetish but whatever... Either way, Akeno, and Koneko were blushing messes who refused to meet my eyes at the news while Kiba just congratulated me and asked when the wedding was.
"Alright let's get going to the underworld while Ei keeps the rest of my creations busy with a long movie," I said bluntly as the girls ribbing and reactions were getting to me.
We all came together and then with a flourish of light, a Gremory crimson glyph formed beneath our feet and then Rias took my hand as we were teleported away into the underworld.
"So Rias, I am leaving telling the news to your brother up to you." I joked and she looked at me like I was crazy as our small group was teleported into a large welcoming room with a maid sitting on a chair for our arrival.
"Mistress, your family is waiting for you in the south meeting room. Will your peerage be joining you as well?" The maid asked and Rias looked at them and they all nodded.
Akeno spoke up with a teasing tone. "Oh, I cannot for the life of me miss your parents and brother's reaction to this news hehe." Akeno snickered as she imagined Sirzechs doing any damned number of things.
"Jake is going to get his legs broken." Koneko piped in sarcastically and I rolled my eyes.
"Fine, no head pats for you Koneko." I threw out and she pouted with her eyes going wide and dilated.
"But why does Akeno still get head pats? She started it?" Koneko said pitifully and I just rolled my eyes.
I then pointed at Akeno who raised an eyebrow as I began to speak. "Any punishment I give Akeno will just make her horny... If I physically punish her, she would get aroused due to being a masochist, and even if I ignore her, she will get horny at the lack of attention." I said bluntly with Akeno giggling and giving me bedroom eyes.
"Plus you don't even give me head pats. But don't worry Jake even if you love me less and give me less affection than your least loved creation I will still wait for you to pay attention to me." Akeno chimed in making my eye twitch at how shameless and perverted she was.
The maid, however, was a true professional as even with all the nonsense we were saying she didn't turn around to look at us as she walked us to the meeting room and once we arrived she turned around and bowed to us. "Mistress and her friends, here is the meeting room so please excuse me as I have other responsibilities." The maid said respectfully before she walked back the way down we came through the highly ornate hallways.
Rias took a deep breath and then she gripped the doors of the meeting room and with a clicking noise she dramatically threw open the doors and stomped in with us following behind her. "Mother Father, Brother, Sister, Milicas... I have important news." Rias started powerfully as she stomped in but as she looked at her concerned family members who were staring at her in confusion at her actions her fiery courage spluttered out into whispers.
"Rias we cannot hear your mumbling speak up." Grayfia said sternly as she raised an eyebrow and Rias took a deep breath with her chest undulating as she attempted to spit it out but utterly failed before it was blurted out.
"I am pregnant!" She shouted as she seemed unable to push the words out naturally and had to resort to shoving the words out as hard as she could which resulted in her shouting and resulting in the entire Gremory family freezing in dead shock.
Sirzechs looked like a mechanical fish mounted on a bar wall as his mouth opened up like a fish and made little nonsensical sounds that were out of synch with his mouth's movements.
Grayfia normally so taciturn and cool blushed with her eyes zipping between Rias and me, with her eyes snapping to our hands that were conjoined, and at that sight, she smiled with utter happiness as she nodded to us both.
Rias's Mother and Father on the other hand were closer to Sirzechs in reactions. As Zeoticus went still and slightly pale while his wife Venelana smiled softly but seemed lost for words as this was literally one of the biggest bombshells people can hear from family except for a death in the family.
Finally, the silence was broken as Milicas ran over and seemed to inspect Rias's belly before he looked up at her with a serious face as he spoke. "But Rias, you can't be pregnant! You aren't even fat!"
I had never seen a woman move so fast, as at that moment Rias's hand came down on her nephew's ear with the hateful vengeance of a scorned woman that sent the brat crying out for his mother. "Mom! Rias is pulling off my ears!" He cried out.
But Grayfia just spoke coldly. "It's alright dear, Jake can reattach it... Never call a woman fat Milicas." She added chidingly as she took an elegant sip of her tea Rias worked out all her stress into Milicas's ear for a couple of seconds before letting him go with a huff.
With that little episode out of the way, Sirzechs weakly smiled at me as he asked. "Are you sure?"
"Yup... Might as well mark the calendar for the day you will be made into the fun uncle you are." I said bluntly and Sirzechs choked at the thought of my words as the scenario played out in his head and then his fucking eyes rolled up into his head as he fainted with his head softly hitting the back of his reclined chair.
Grayfia loudly sighed with a wry smile as she walked over to check her husband while the Gremory parents giggled with Grayfia speaking as Rias's peerage looked concerned. "Don't worry he fainted when he learned I got pregnant... As well as when I gave birth." Grayfia paused as she checked on her husband and she snorted. "He fainted when Venalana announced her pregnancy with Rias as well."
"Huh, that's some good blackmail. Do you have pictures?" Akeno asked to giggle and Venelana matched her giggling with her own.
"Oh of course I have pictures of all my family members at pivotal moments of their lives. Speaking of which Jake, I need to get some pictures of you with the family to add to the stasis collections." She said with love clear in her voice as she spoke to me and I nodded with a soft smile as I came over to Zeoticus.
"I have been practicing my soul manipulation abilities with the Grail, can you get me access to a devil the Sleeping Sickness so I can get to work on it before word of your affliction gets out," I spoke softly as Rias was taken by the hand by the two matrons of the Gremory family and they were loudly discussing a baby shower and other such things.
Zeoticus nodded thankfully of my silent asking as Milicus still didn't know of his affliction so he responded equally as softly. "Yes in fact we already have a couple of maids that fell to the affliction that we take care for their centuries of service. I will lead you to them." He said standing up and beside me with him speaking up to the party as Kiba silently escaped the room to flee the room of chatting ladies.
"Ladies, Jake and I will be going for a bit of father and son bonding time as we are well aware of our inability to contribute to this conversation." He said wryly and in response, Grayfia and Venelana waved their hands at us as though to tell us to shoo with Grayfia bluntly telling us to carry Sirzechs into another room if I couldn't wake him up.
