Unnamed

After getting in the shower I went back in the living room and saw that Mia was awake. I stood in the doorway as she looked at me.

"How's your stomach?" I asked. She sighed as she stood up and walked towards me.

"I couldn't go all out back there so we have to fight again." She claimed as she looked me dead in the eyes.

"We have all week so sure. I've been meaning to see how strong you really are. To make it better let's go in the eight rings of hell and I'll change the dilation to maybe 10 years is the same as a minute." I exclaimed. Her head jerked back in shock at my statement.

"Why though?"

"So we can get the most done in a week. I can raise it more, but we already gonna be in there for like 100,800 years." I explained. Her mouth was left agape, but she regained her composure quickly.

"So do you want to start now or take a bath and change?" I asked.

"I can change my clothes whenever and can't we just make a bath there right?" She asked.

I nodded and so for the outside world we were gone for a week, but for us we were gone for a 100,800 years. While we were there we worked on her powers and normal strength as well.

After all this is a partnership and I like a partner who can actually help me…I also like thighs. I her's in particular caught my attention.

But anyways, I didn't stop training either. I was finally able to do astral projection and with it I can freely travel to other plains of existence, but in that form I'm very weak again magical attacks.

Mia can do some things that she call Dark arts and White arts. In terms of speed she's faster than light without weights and with strength alone, she punched out a galaxy.

When I said training I wasn't playing. Although I can do better, she still improved extremely fast. I've also gotten to know her more. She's smart but have dumb moments. She doesn't like when she does something wrong or not how it was planned.

She also has some lazy days. I started opening up to her a little while we were in here. I showed my more "goofy" side. It was letting loose for a while because I noticed something with myself.

I could know people for my whole life and still have walls. I don't know why, but I feel like it's because I'm a skeptical person. I never fully trust people anyway.

Even my two best friends when I was on earth were no acceptation. They just learned to be patient. Some of these day's we relaxed. We made a smaller house in here with a hot spring. We also sat up some protection around the house to kill monsters in its vicinity.

All in all we were good. I don't know how much raw strength I have and running faster than light not all that fun since you basically live in a black and white world.

I also had a weird dream. It was about this woman or people who "live in the sun." Apparently I'm their brightest child and was requested to come visit them.

It was weird, but I guess it had something to do with my Primordial fire. She said something about "the Parliament of Flames".

That was all we did. We trained, played around, and relaxed.

"Come on this is our last day." I said encouraging Mia to do the last push up. She had weights that weighed around 15 septillion tons.

A/N: 15 with 24 zeros.

It wasn't the weight itself because we've been having these weights on for a while. It's just the amount of push-ups added with the gravity that's making it hard.

We each did around 12-15 trillion to start and end the day. With the time dilation completely fucked up we had a shit tone of time in one day.

She did the push-up and immediately drop to her knees. Right now she was wearing some tights while I wore some joggers. I made our clothes the weights so we can do this naturally without looking weird.

"I'm glad this is finally over." She said as she stood up with a heavy sigh.

"We can get in the hot tub later so you'll be fine." I said. I finally grew taller than her. I'm 6'8 while she's still 6'6. I was hoping we wouldn't grow anymore, because this height is already abnormal. I don't mind though.

"You ready to leave?" I said. She nodded eagerly and I opened a portal to the house. We both walked in and breathed in the clear air. After all the air in that dimension is stuff because of the magic.

"What should we do now?" She asked.

"Hot tub, then we can go visit Rimuru and see what's going on with them." She nodded and teleported in a mist of dark force. Honestly her progress with everything is just impeccable.

I made a tile appear in my hand as I slung it over my shoulder and with a snap of a finger my pants changed into shorts and my shirt disappeared. I walked out of a door and through the hall.

Making a turn to the right I opened the door and steam came rushing out. I walked through it breathing in the steamy air.

"How hot do you got the water?" I asked as I looked over to Mia. She sat in the huge hot tub with the water coming up to her neck.

"How enough to get us nice and warm." She said with a relaxed sigh. I got in on the other side and leaned on the walls making them vibrate.

"This is definitely my heaven." I murmured as I closed my eyes. The hot we had was like a rectangle, but wider. The water would burn people skin off if they even got hit by the steam, but to use it was just warm and cozy.

It was relaxing.

Feeling Mia look at me I opened my eyes and looked in her direction.

"What?" I asked tilting my head.

"What are you thinking about. I heard that you Virgos always have sex on your minds, but cover it up with a calm face and eyes." She said.

"…"

"You a lil freak underneath all that calm?~" she said in a seductive voice. I saw her coming closer to me and I raised my foot and with a powerful push I threw a wave of water at her.

"What made you think I would tell you that? If you want to know figure it out." I said with a small smile.

She piped up from under the water and took a deep breath.

"I am figuring it out. You're just stubborn, it doesn't matter since I'll unravel you at some point. I just want to loosen up around me." She said as she slapped the water making a wave of it slam into my body.

"I was never stiff that was just my personality. Like what I'm doing now. If I wasn't a little bit comfortable around you I wouldn't be in here with you." I said.

"Plus, why would I tell you about stuff like that?" I added.

"You don't have to tell me, I was just teasing, but honestly you need to be more wild." She said.

"I can, it's just a matter of if I want too. Plus, I'd only ever show that side of myself to people I'm close with."

"We're not close?" She asked playfully pouting.

"I'm getting comfortable with you."

"Whaaaaat?"

"You've changed too. I remember you always being serious just like me. Now you're like an flirty adult." I commented.

"I don't remember being that serious." She said as she put a finger to her lips.

"Once I'm comfortable with you you'll see some sides of me you didn't know I have, but I'll tell you this. I still have a craving for sex, I just know how to keep it in control. That's it." I said plainly.

"How you say that with a straight face or without blushing?" She said looking at me with a smile.

"Because I can." I pushed a huge wave of water over her and got out of the hot tub.

"I'll be waiting for you in the living room." I said and left the room silently.

(Third POV)

That was all cap.

Akihito is a person that gets embarrassed easily with things about sex or anything that's personal. The fact is that on the outside it looks like he doesn't care or isn't embarrassed, bun on the inside he wants to be alone.

The way Akihito gets embarrassed is something only his two best friends knew that was because he would get really quiet and as a natural quiet person people wouldn't notice unless they truly knew Akihito.

To lay out his personality would be complex yet simple.

He's Modest, Dedicated, Perfectionist, worrying, efficient, responsible, subtle, curious, honest, sensuous, compulsive, repressed, selective, energetic, organized, incisive, trustworthy, humble, altruistic, nervous, practical, generous, and classy.

The list can go on and on, but it wouldn't matter since people don't even get to see these types of emotions and different sides of him. All most people see from him is Quiet, Calm, Logical, Cold, Skeptical and the Analytical side of him.

It's not that he's incapable of showing emotions it's just that his face doesn't show them or doesn't know how properly?

Akihito is a very insecure person even though he doesn't show it. It's because he's also too prideful to show weakness to people no matter who they are.

He won't show or tell you about his insecurities and neither will I, because once he finds a person that can unravel his personality and get to the center that person's life would be like something from a dream from that point forward.

That's the thing though, there hadn't been anyone he knew that could put up with him long enough or take the time to unravel him. You can compare him to a ball of yarn. He doesn't need much but for you to pull on a loose string that he sets out and slowly and gently unravel the yarn.

It might take a while, but it's better than cutting off a piece of the string thinking that's all you need while leaving everything else behind.

Definitely dealing with him. While he can become completely attached to someone he can act like they never met in a heart beat. As I said grasping at his personality is complex yet simple it just takes time.

Mia however realized that and decided that she's down for the challenge. She believes that with enough time she can get Akihito to open up to her, but she herself didn't know why she was so attracted to him.

For her he seemed more of the stand-offish and cold type, but also had this uncanny attractiveness. She was confused, but wasn't at the same time.

She sat there in the pool thinking about their little exchange and came to the conclusion that he must not have wanted to talk about the topic anymore, because he was annoyed.

Of course she still had a long way to go. Now that all these problems are arising and the fact that he's a god with a goal along with his mind never being calm it would take even more time.

The biggest struggle that he has is when his mind and emotions conflict. Sometimes he felt lonely, but never wanted a girlfriend, sometimes he cared about what people said, but his emotions were like "no you don't." So he rolled with it.

He's the type of person that can hide his emotions with how he talk and moves, but it's the small details that's a dead giveaway at how he's feeling.

While Mia would be right in some cases she was wrong in this one.

Akihito didn't leave from annoyance it was out of pure embarrassment.

(First POV)

Sitting on the couch in my normal clothes I waited for Mia to come out of the hot tub. Honestly, why would anyone bring up a topic like that and so outta the blue. You know what fuck it.

I sighed as I leaned my head back on my couch.

"I'm ready now." Mia said as she came out in a black skirt, and a white shirt along with some black heels. Hair hair was tied into one long braid that stopped at the back of her knee.

"Why are you dressed like that?" I asked. I'm not dressed in anything, but my normal black pants, black shirt, and black trench coat with a fur hood. I also had to put my hair up into a bun since it grew.

"Don't we give off that Boss and Secretary vibe?" She said putting a hand on her hip.

"You're so childish." I got up and opened a portal into the city where I felt them all gathered and one other presence with them.
