Chapter 15: Meeting Ada again.
Katharina gave him a deadpan look, clearly fed up with having to explain things to him—especially now that he wanted to leave her to go see other women!
"Tsk," she said, opening the door to reveal a hallway on the other side. "Novah!" she shouted, calling the woman back, who came immediately.
\'Damn... sends me away and calls me right back,\' Novah murmured as she saw the possessive look on Katharina\'s face. The woman was clearly furious... \'This irrational woman... I should ask for a raise!\'
"Send us to Ada\'s house," Katharina said, and Novah looked at her with concern. "Are you sure? I mean, last time you two almost killed each other," she murmured.
"Novah... Do it now, don\'t make me repeat myself, got it?" Katharina said, almost threatening her with a smile.
Novah sighed as she created a magic circle around the two of them. "Hold onto me," Katharina ordered, extending her hand for him to take. "I hope you don\'t get nauseous easily!"
Vergil looked at Katharina, who was clearly at the end of her patience, but he decided not to prolong the tension.
He took her hand, feeling the force with which she gripped him.
The magic circle around them began to glow intensely, and he could feel the energy pulsing through their bodies.
"Ready?" Katharina asked, and before he could answer, Novah began chanting in a language he didn\'t recognize.
The magic circle glowed even brighter, and Vergil felt the ground disappear from under his feet as a wave of dizziness overtook him.
In an instant, the world around them distorted, as if they were being sucked into a whirlwind of light and shadow.
The sensation was overwhelming, as though his body was being stretched and compressed at the same time.
Vergil clenched his teeth, trying to control the nausea that was building up.
"Don\'t look down," Katharina warned playfully, noticing his discomfort.
"Easy for you to say," he muttered, feeling the pressure ease as the magic began to stabilize.
When the sensation finally passed, they were standing in a softly lit room.
The familiar scent of Ada\'s house enveloped Vergil, bringing instant relief. He took a deep breath, glad to be back, though still a bit disoriented.
"Welcome back," Katharina said, letting go of his hand and fixing her hair. "Now, let\'s see what\'s going on with Ada."
Vergil looked around, recognizing the place as Ada\'s home, and sighed in relief. "I really need to get used to these trips... That was intense."
Katharina just laughed softly.
"Oh... so you were with her." Ada\'s voice sounded as she appeared in the room. "Check your phone... idiot," Ada said, and Vergil blinked twice.
[63 missed calls.]
Vergil stared at his phone, his eyes widening at the sight of 63 missed calls.
He felt a chill run down his spine as he looked at Ada, who was clearly furious.
\'I\'m going to die...\' He felt the cold dread creeping over him, sending shivers down his spine.
"I... didn\'t hear it," he tried to explain, but the look on Ada\'s face told him that any excuse would be useless.
\'I\'m really going to die...\' he smiled awkwardly while scratching his head.
"Didn\'t hear it?" Ada repeated, crossing her arms and raising an eyebrow. "You were so busy that you couldn\'t check your phone even once? Do you know how long I\'ve been trying to find you?" she continued, her voice laced with irony and disappointment.
Katharina, on the other hand, simply watched the scene unfold with an amused smile on her lips.
It was obvious she was enjoying the situation, perhaps feeling a bit vindicated by Vergil\'s divided attention.
"Sorry, Ada. I... was kind of... off the planet? I mean, it\'s her fault, she dragged me to the lower realm," Vergil said, pointing at Katharina, trying to shift the blame, but Ada\'s expression didn\'t change.
"Really?" Ada replied, her voice still filled with frustration. "While you were \'off the planet,\' I was here, worried sick about whether you were alive or not, you idiot!"
Those words alone made a huge vein bulge on Vergil\'s forehead—he was angry... very angry...
"Katharina." He said seriously, turning calmly to face the woman who had lost all the mischievous sparkle in her eyes... "Didn\'t you tell her you had taken care of the Exorcist issue?" He asked, gently frightening with his eyes almost swallowing the redhead.
"I-I-I... Ah... Well... Let\'s just say..." She sighed, trying to find any way to defend herself, but her shoulders slumped, and she lowered her head... She had no defense...
"I\'m sorry..." she murmured, genuinely sad. "I don\'t want to hear apologies; you need to apologize to her." He said...
\'No fucking way! I\'m not bowing my head to this bitch!\' Katharina raged internally; she refused! She was a Proud Demon! She wouldn\'t do it!
"If you think you\'re getting away with this, either you apologize, or I will never call you Katy again." Vergil said, almost consuming her entirely. He looked like a Dementor ready to suck her soul if she didn\'t comply...
"S-Sorry..." she murmured almost inaudibly. "Louder," he repeated, one thing Vergil couldn\'t tolerate was... not admitting guilt...
It really irritated him; he didn\'t like people lying to him, even if it was to protect him. If he was honest, he liked people to be honest with him, and when they lied not just to him but to someone he cared about... He also got furious, and that was the case now...
Katharina and her euphoria completely forgot this characteristic... He knew she was a Yandere, and if he was certain of that, another certainty was also confirmed... She must also be a Stalker, so, currently... She knew she had done something wrong...
\'I... messed up.\' She murmured.
"I\'m sorry, Ada, it won\'t happen again." She said sincerely, trying to convey as much honesty as she could muster in front of him... She didn\'t want to disappoint him...
\'Is she... being controlled?\' Ada wondered, seeing her friend acting this way... after all... let\'s be honest here...
Only one person could control Katharina in the entire world, and it was the Demon Queen of the Agares Clan... Her mother.
\'Well... at least half of the world\'s problems will decrease if he can control her... Ah... She wanted him to control her from the start... Hence the Master-Servant Pact...\'
Ada was a logical woman; she had enough intelligence to read her friend\'s movements... It was clear, she wouldn\'t be controlled unless she wanted to... \'Makes sense now... but she dragged us... now I have this damn feeling for this man!\' She screamed internally.
"Alright. I accept your apology... just don\'t let it happen again, okay?" Ada asked, and Katharina, still somewhat downcast, nodded.
"See? It wasn\'t that bad, my Katy," he murmured into her ear, making her spine scream and tremble entirely, her whole body shook, and her hairs stood on end, while his hand stroked her hair...
"Y-Yes..." She nodded...
A silence lingered for a few seconds while Ada continued to watch the scene... and finally... "Oh... Did you get the message from Roxanne?" Ada asked, and Katharina reverted to... herself...
"Can you believe that? That bitch shouldn\'t be in Hollywood? Besides, why was she alone? Even though we have a truce with the Inquisition to keep the territories under control, they shouldn\'t be hunting so recklessly." Katharina said, shrugging; after all, it didn\'t really matter.
She didn\'t care what happened to Roxanne... Well... actually...
"I\'m not anyone\'s mother, you know? And her mother? Nothing?" Katharina said, and Ada showed a contact labeled "Slutty Employee 2"
[Slutty Employee 2 ~ They\'re fighting, let her suffer.]
"Seriously?" Katharina asked, looking at Ada, who shrugged. "They should stop fighting... what could it be this time? Stealing demon sweets from Lady Sitri\'s vault?" Ada said with no emotion in her voice...
"You two really hate each other, don\'t you?" Vergil asked, who had been just observing until then...
"Try living twenty years with those two, and I guarantee you\'d think the same." Ada commented, while tying her hair into a ponytail. "We need to go after her... And I need a coffee." She said, while using a pen to secure it properly.
"Can we stop at a Star on the way? My baby is still in the garage?" Katharina said, pouting, "I miss him so much..." She murmured, "The problem is yours; you lost that bet!" Ada said quickly... "Come on, let me drive it... just today..." Katharina said, almost pleading.
"No chance!" Ada said
"What the hell are you two talking about?" Vergil questioned, and both women smiled.
"We need to go after Roxanne, and from the look on your face, you want to come along, right?" Katharina said with a grin.
"It\'s going to take a while..." Ada commented.
"Well, what do we have to lose? I just need to let my mom know... By the way, how much time has passed?" he asked, and the two women exchanged glances.
"A week..." Katharina replied.
"A WEEK?!!" Vergil shouted, startled.
