Chapter 0288: The Wisdom of Okaa-Sama
AraAra, little Tenraku and Ravel are back, As soon as Tenraku, Ravel, and Ruval entered the room, they saw the smiling face of Madam Phenex waiting for them.
Okaa-Sama! Ravel immediately hugged her mother, and Tenraku and Ruval also greeted them with respect, Otou-Sama, Okaa-Sama.
Please, have a seat, Duke Phenex said while sipping his hot tea.
Yes.
Prominent families always had many rules, and the Phenex family was no exception. The Otou-Sama was typically a stern and dignified family lord, while the Okaa-Sama was more approachable and caring, always showing concern for Tenraku and Ravel.
After exchanging pleasantries with Okaa-Sama, Duke Phenex spoke, So, what brings you back so suddenly?
Tenraku gave a wry smile. It was no surprise that his Otou-Sama was so direct, and Ravel became even more nervous, burying her face in her mothers embrace, unable to face anyone.
Even Madam Phenex and Ruval could sense that something was amiss between Tenraku and Ravel.
Being anxious was only natural, but Ravel shouldnt be the one to talk about this. With a slight exhale, Tenraku stood up and said, Otou-Sama, Okaa-Sama, theres something important that I would like to request your approval for.
Oh something important that requires our approval? Madam Phenex smiled, but Duke Phenexs expression remained inscrutable.
Otou-Sama, Okaa-Sama, I love Ravel, and I want her to be my wife. I hope you will approve of our relationship! Tenraku said, mentally preparing himself for Otou-Samas response.
However, instead of the expected stern reaction, the room fell into an intense silence after Tenraku spoke. Duke Phenex remained expressionless, Madam Phenex covered her mouth in shock, and Ravel blushed even harder, trembling as she clung to her mother.
Tenraku, Ravel, you two you two Ruval was the first to regain his composure, looking at Tenraku in disbelief.
Due to his involvement in Rating Games and family business matters, Ruval rarely returned home. He never expected to encounter such a sensational matter upon his return.
Although from a Devils perspective, there was nothing wrong with Ravel and Tenraku being together, and Ravel had always been particularly attached to Tenraku among her older brothers. However
How did they end up developing to this point?
Cold sweat formed on his forehead but Tenraku wasnt in the mood to explain anything to Ruval right now. He was focused on waiting for Otou-Sama and Okaa-Samas response.
To him, the tense atmosphere lasted for several minutes, but it felt like centuries!
Finally, Duke Phenex broke the silence, Ravel is your Younger Sister; dont disappoint her.
His response was as clear and concise as usual. He approved of Tenraku and Ravels relationship.
Breathing a sigh of relief, Tenraku couldnt help but feel a bit strange inside. Otou-Sama, dont you want to know Ravels opinion on this?
Do I need to ask? Duke Phenex glanced at Ravel, who still had her face buried, and replied nonchalantly.
Tenraku was at a loss for words.
Impressive, truly formidable, no wonder he was Otou-Sama!
But, this matter is not solely decided by me. Your Okaa-Samas approval is also required, Duke Phenex added unexpectedly.
While he usually made decisions as the family lord, this matter concerned Ravels future, and Madam Phenex also had the right to decide.
Well, Okaa-Sama
Tenraku scratched his head, his gaze shifting to Madam Phenex. H H H Little Tenraku, Ill give you an answer tomorrow, she said.
Uh, tomorrow? Cant you decide now? Tenraku asked.
This is a matter concerning Ravels lifelong happiness. I need some time to consider it properly, Madam Phenex replied.
Whats the rush, little Tenraku? Cant you wait just one night? she teased.
Alright then
Since Okaa-Sama said so, Tenraku had no choice but to wait until tomorrow. If even Otou-Sama agreed, Okaa-Sama shouldnt object, right?
Madam Phenex then left the room, taking Ravel with her. Mother and daughter probably had a lot to discuss. Meanwhile, Tenraku and Ruval stayed with Otou-Sama for a while, but he was a man of few words. Three grown men sitting together made the atmosphere awkward, so Tenraku and Ruval soon made an excuse to leave.
Tenraku, you always manage to surprise people, Ruval said, patting Tenrakus shoulder. Come to my place for a drink, and tell me more about you and Ravel.
After leaving the room, both Tenraku and Ruval breathed out a sigh of relief. Then, Ruval invited Tenraku to his place for a drink, and Tenraku reluctantly agreed.
That night
In the luxurious room, Ravel and Madam Phenex were lying on the bed. Both exuded an air of nobility, with Ravel resembling a slightly younger version of her mother.
Mother, have you made your decision? Ravel asked, blushing, unable to contain herself any longer.
Why? Are you in such a hurry to become Tenrakus wife? Madam Phenex put down her book and looked at Ravel with a teasing smile.
N-No, thats not it! Ravel denied it with an embarrassed expression on her face.
Oh really? In that case, Ill reject Tenraku tomorrow. My Ravel should find someone even more exceptional as her wedded, Madam Phenex said with a sly grin.
No! Ravel quickly lifted her head in excitement, only to realize that her mother was teasing her.
Mother, youre so mean.
Blushing furiously, Ravel buried her head again.
With a touch of indulgence in her eyes, Madam Phenex gently stroked Ravels hair and said, Ravel, youve been close to Tenraku since you were young. I had already expected this development when you went to the Human World together with him.
Mother, you knew back then?
Even when Tenraku was considered a waste, you were close to him. Moreover, now that Tenraku has become outstanding, it would be strange if you didnt fall for him, right?
Besides, although Tenraku took all the responsibility, you were the one who confessed first, right? Tenraku only said that to save face for you.
W w w Mother, please stop!
Her face flushed, and feeling incredibly embarrassed, Ravel never expected that her mother would see through everything.
My silly daughter, do you know why I delayed my answer to Tenraku for one night?
Tightly embracing Ravel, Madam Phenex spoke softly.
W-Why?
Although she was incredibly shy, Ravel was curious.
If her mother already understood her feelings, why did she do that?
Men are so overbearing and possessive, and Tenraku is no exception.
No, maybe hes even more forceful in this regard, given his qualifications.
The more unattainable something is, the more precious it becomes. Its a natural instinct for both humans and Devils. Despite Tenrakus intelligence, even if he knows I will eventually agree, as long as I havent confirmed it personally, he will still be concerned about this matter and care even more about you.
My foolish daughter, if you want to capture a mans heart, loyalty and love alone are not enough. You need much more, especially when dealing with someone like Tenraku, who is surrounded by many outstanding girls.
Ravel, I will now teach you how to firmly grasp Tenrakus heart and keep him forever and ever. You must listen carefully, my dear.
Hearing her mothers words, Ravels eyes lit up, forgetting her embarrassment for a moment. She didnt dare take this matter lightly; it concerned her lifelong happiness. She listened intently, afraid of missing a single word.
Meanwhile, at the Gremory residence
Mother, this is too embarrassing, Rias blushed crimson, feeling tempted to give up after hearing her mothers explanation of bed skills.
Rias, capturing a mans heart is not that easy. If you dont learn a few skills now, you might regret it later when Tenraku becomes bored, Venelana said with a glint of wisdom in her eyes.
Hearing her mothers words, Rias hesitated. Indeed, as her mother said, if she didnt learn some techniques now, she might be in danger later. After all, there were so many women around Tenraku now, and there would be even more in the future!
Mother, please teach me. I want to learn!
Finally, Rias made up her mind. She didnt want to lose to those vixens; she wanted to firmly grasp Tenrakus heart and make him forever infatuated with her!
Seeing her daughter finally understanding, a brilliant smile appeared on Venelanas face. She was determined to train the adorable Rias into a perfect woman whom Tenraku would be unable to resist!
At this moment, Tenraku was still unaware that both of his wise Okaa-Sama were imparting their skills to their daughters, teaching them how to capture his heart both physically and emotionally
