Chapter 67 - 66 Seeing Rin Again (1/2)
Rin took Gray's hand politely and by her slightly accented English, it was evident that she was not from this country. Even though Gray had met Rin once before, he had not met any of the people behind her, inlcuding the frowning young man with purplish hair. By the look he gave Gray when he held Rin's hand, it was clear that he already didn't like the older man.
Gray sent a glance to Caster to also noted the red smudge on Rin's hand. It was definitely not a bruise, and the Goddess nodded slightly as Gray faced directly at Rin.
”I didn't think we'd meet each other again. I'm sorry for leaving the party so abruptly, but I had to deal with some.... tenants back at my apartment”.
”You own a building in New York?”.
Rin's eyebrows raised and she felt a small nudge from the brunette beside her. From Gray's nod and Ayako's not so subtle push, the raven haired woman already knew what the captain of her school's archery team wanted.
One of the girls behind Rin looked at Gray, then to the beautiful woman sitting at the same table, before her faced reddened and she pulled at her sisters red blouse. The buxom girl pointed at Caster before whispering to Rin.
”Nee-chan. I think we're bothering him. He looks like he's on a date....”. Said Sakura in Japanese.
The group of four girls and two boys looked at the Servant sitting opposite Rin's acquaintance, and the two boys gulped slightly and straightened their backs. The look on Scathach-sama's face as she quietly scooped her ice cream looked both lonely and beautiful. Both boys felt their heart skip a beat as they looked at Gray's Servant.
Gray shot a glance towards Caster before speaking in the same language as Rin's younger sister, earning surprised looks from all six of the people in front of him.
”It's fine. Caster and I aren't in that kind of relationship. We are.... accomplices in the same undertaking....”.
The words Gray used was affirmed by Caster. She nodded and also spoke in Japanese,
”That is right. Gray serves me and does whatever I want. It is only natural for mortals to serve their Goddess', even if I should ask for his-”.
Gray placed his hand over Caster's mouth, causing the woman to go wide eyed as she felt Gray's hand over her lips. It both prevented her from talking, as well as stifled her breathing, causing the Servant to look up at her Master with a reddened face and slightly watery eyes.
He gave the group of six a smile before pulling a small black note from his brėȧst pocket and handing it towards Rin. The Tohsaka daughter took the card readily before noting the phone number written on the front.
Gray winked at the girl as he took Caster in his arms an left a not so small amount of money on the table. The Servant tried to resist Gray's strength, but with her B Rank Strength and D Rank Endurance, she couldn't even put up a fight against him.
”I seem to recall you asking for that. While you're in New York, if ever you're in trouble, just give me a call. I'll come running, or something along those lines”.
He looked towards Rin who was still stunned by Gray's use of Japanese, before frowning and crossing his arms.
”I see your still entrancing men, even when we're over seas Tohsaka”.
The girl in question frowned and turned around looking at Issei with a raised eyebrow.
”At least I attract members of the opposite sėx, Ryuudou. With your bland personality, I'm surprised girls even talk to you”.
