"Unfortunately, I doubt that it was my new mage. As far as I could tell and from what some people have spoken about Ritsuka was seen in a pawn shop before wandering the main boulevard. If he had been the one to do it then he would have never made it back to Kuoh in time for us to intercept him." Rias assessed as she thought over everything that had happened.

Sirzechs had done some research on the matter of Ritsuka's appearance. While there were no definite entry points his trip through Kuoh had been well viewed by several passerbyers who all noticed the strangely dressed young man wandering about. Each moment was well documented with his entry being the only sticking point.

"When was the time of death Sona?" Rias asked trying to figure out the timeline of events.

"Around eight I think." Sona pointed out.

"Then it couldn't have anything to do with Ritsuka. He was already in my home and I kept a close eye on his stay. At most it was around seven thirty that we arrived and another forty five minutes before he retired for the night." Rias recalled with perfect clarity the series of events that first night.

"Tch… I guess he checks out for now then. Still he is very suspicious, don't you think. A person arriving out of nowhere. And your Peerage, how do they feel about him." Sona questioned pushing the point still. She wasn't convinced in the slightest that Ritsuka wasn't involved in some way.

"They like him. I'm pretty sure they all feel something in common with him. Why? What does that have to do with anything?" Rias lowered her gaze feeling that this conversation was getting a bit too intense.

"Well, let me finish my previous thought. A suspicious person arriving out of nowhere seemingly too good to be true if what you told me so far of your Peerage is right. A real dreamboat of a guy? That screams suspicious… so what's stopping you from forcing him to answer honestly." Sona needled the point and didn't want to accept a flimsy excuse.

"... His eyes intimidate me. A lot. I've never seen such a sharp gaze except by my father and the only time I've seen that gaze is when he lost his temper." Rias admitted… something she didn't want to say out loud.

"He's just a human… isn't he? I mean no matter what even any exorcists who tried to do something stupid in Kuoh couldn't even match our own gazes. What's so special about this Ritsuka?" Sona balked at the explanation but she couldn't dismiss it out of incredulity. Rias didn't lie about these sorts of things and their own deal made them work together on the management of Kuoh as a whole.

"Get him into the Academy and you'll see what I mean." Rias shot back clearly not wanting to continue the meeting in that direction any further.

"Fine I will. Though don't blame me if I get him to join me." Sona gave her fellow King a satisfied smirk. Rias returned it full of far more confidence than Sona could ever muster… pressing her breasts up as well just to prove a point.

The meeting between the two Kings of Kuoh once again ending in a tense standoff as two women fought for dominance in the grand scheme of things.

Ritsuka had woken up as early as he usually did… still in the comfortable bed in the world that he had been rayshifted to. The previous night he had once thought that the world around him was nothing more than an overly elaborate dream. It could have been just like the murder mystery he got involved in where Holmes had helped solve a case where he died within the first couple of days. Unfortunately, it wasn't a dream and he was still there.

The Bounded Field remained standing and the door was still locked. He still didn't understand why he needed to do that. Of course, that was a lie. One he would never say out loud in case Kiyohime somehow managed to break through the barriers of time and space to call him out on it.

He didn't know why but he was disappointed that she didn't. At least it would have led to Chaldea finding him already. Not the worst idea but possibly in the top ten if he actually thought clearly about it.

The last time something of this magnitude had happened, from what he could recall, the remnants of the Chaldean computers had tried to cleanse him of his PTSD. It didn't work and just reminded him of far more unpleasant things he had dealt with.

Shaking off the anxiety, he made his way downstairs. From what he could tell the two story house seemed to be made into a modest home, one no would expect was much grander on the inside than the outside. Everything within was extravagant or stylish in a way that fit with royalty or the like. To Ritsuka, it looked normal. The main hall was a small walkway split by the kitchen and dining area with a living room and small atrium on the opposite side. There were more room but when he tried the doors they were locked.

He didn't dwell too long upon it since he wanted to get his actual training done instead of the impromptu session he performed yesterday.

The room was empty with a small closet off to the side holding plenty of furniture and accoutrements that fit with the room. He set up a bounding field in the room as he looked at the center. There was a small pattern in the center which had signified the arena that he had dueled Kiba within and immediately took his stance as well.

It had taken him months to even get the stance right from a lifetime of only modern physical education. Breathing steadily he slowly sunk his body down keeping his legs apart allowing the space between to resemble an equilateral triangle. With feet pointed straight ahead and back as straight as possible he raised his arms until they acted as if he was holding onto a steering wheel.

Ritsuka kept counting making certain to keep them measured at a five seconds for each number recited allowing for a twelve count every minute.
