(Hyoudou Household)
Issei was relaxing in his room Saturday morning when he got a call on his phone. Checking the caller ID he found that it was his master calling and answered, "What's up master. It's not like you to call me." Issei said curiously.
'Well I thought you should know that, when I checked the church this morning, I noticed that the fallen angel presence was completely gone. It looks like Rias finally decided to get rid of them.' Olivia explained.
"I see." Issei said calmly unsure of what to think about the revelation. A part of him would miss the brash fallen. Admittedly, that part was mostly his libido but there was nothing he could do about it now.
'The good news is that I got a call from Irina. She was able to find out what you asked me about the other day.' Olivia revealed. Tosca's desperation surprised Issei so he asked Irina to see what sort of information the church had on Rias. Using Olivia would be much easier since she was a high-class devil, but in order to do that she'd need to expose herself.
Issei's eyes narrowed as his focus turned to the real elephant in the room, "So what's going on?'
"Rias is engaged to a man named Riser Phenex and he doesn't exactly have the best reputation according to the church."
"That doesn't explain why Rias would want me." Issei said in confusion.
"Actually it does, but you'd need to understand devil culture to figure out why."
"Then explain it to me miss High-Class devil." Issei said sarcastically.
'Devils love two things more than anything else: maintaining Blood purity among the 72 pillars, and Rating Games. Arranged marriages like these are common in order to maintain said purity and the women are usually in a helpless situation. Rating games are typically used to… reinforce that."
"Rating games are battles between peerages right. You've mentioned them a few times." Issei mused.
'That's right. If she wants any chance of freeing herself, she'd need a rating game. Your athletic prowess would've made you a prime candidate to become a member of a devil's peerage. Kind of ironic since a devil gave you the skills in the first place' Olivia reminded him.
"To be fair you gave me the ability to create the skills, I'm the one who created SUPER ATHLETE and had the means to abuse it" Issei replied. SUPER ATHLETE allowed Issei to become an expert in any sport no matter what it was, and it was the source of his reputation as the Swiss Army knife. The kisses from the girls also served as an excellent source of raising his LP until that got boring and he formed the perverted trio. Of course, none of that compared to the fateful week with Irina and Xenovia when his LP exploded, and he was really able to utilize GET CREATIVE alongside the powerful frame he was building thanks to a private training dimension his master let him utilize.
'Well it doesn't matter now. She'd have to recruit you directly and I doubt you'd easily give her the time of day."
"Yep. Shame to see Raynare go, but between the student council girls and the kendo club I've got plenty of women on my plate." Issei smiled.
'Just be careful Issei, Sona and Rias are best friends so don't be surprised if they try to use your interest in those girls to their advantage.' Olivia warned. Devils manipulated people as well as anybody and if Issei wasn't careful he'd be in trouble. That was a lesson she learned the hard way and she made sure that Irina and Issei understood that as much as anything else.
"Got it master. I'll talk to you later." Issei said with a smile.
'Bye Issei. Come visit me soon.' Olivia requested.
"I will once things calm down master."
'Good.' Olivia replied before hanging up.
As he got off the phone with his master, he couldn't help but wonder how the final battle played out. As far as he knew, Rias wasn't aware of his powers, but she knew that Raynare was interested in him. The question is how much did Raynare tell her if anything.
"I know what you're thinking partner but relax. At absolute worst she knows you have powers and there's no way she knows about Get Creative." Ddraig reminded him.
"True. I guess I'm worried over nothing." Issei replied as he moved to relax. The ball was truly in Rias's court now and all he needed to do was wait and see what she did.
(Scene Skip)
Gym class Monday promised to be a headache because they were with Class 2-C yet again. Issei was focused on relaxing since Matsuda was off with Manami. Motohama was focused on something else entirely, "Looks like Class 2-C got another cutie, 31-22-32." Motohama smiled.
"You really do have tits on the brain Moto." Issei groaned as he looked at the new girl who was talking with Tosca about something. She had long blonde hair and big green eyes with a small figure. As far as girls went, she was pretty basic, but she did have a supernatural aura which was interesting to note.
"Speaking of tits. What did you and Tosca go and talk about the other day." Motohama asked curiously.
"Absolutely nothing." Issei deadpanned. He was actually annoyed that his buddy reminded him of Tosca's stupidity. Unfortunately his mood got worse as someone far more irritating than Tosca approached them.
"Oh great not this loser." Motohama groaned aware of the person coming to see them.
"Yo glasses you and I need to have a little chat." A guy with fair skin black hair and brown eyes scowled.
"We have absolutely nothing to talk about Yamato. Now get lost because you're blocking my view" Motohama scowled with genuine venom. Yamato Nishikori was the current leader of Kuoh's soccer team and somebody Issei and Motohama both despised.
"But we do perv. Keep away from Reika or else." Yamato groaned.
'Figures. He's still as petty as ever.' Issei sighed. Yamato was the captain of Sanzen's soccer team when he was the Swiss Army Knife. Back then he and Issei got into plenty of arguments over Tsubasa and after a colossal failure in that regards he found somebody new. "Since when do you get to decide who Motohama talks to." Issei replied with an annoyed expression on his face.
"Since Reika happens to be my girl." Yamato said boldly.
Issei twitched because this was getting annoyingly familiar, "That's a lie and we both know it. You're probably interested in Reika and you heard from one of your flunkies that she was interested in Motohama and decided to intimidate the competition. You're just as petty as always Yamato." Issei groaned.
"Say that again Hyoudou." Yamato growled.
Issei smiled and stood up to Yamato, "You're… as… petty… as…" Issei was about to say always but Yamato aimed a punch at his face before he could finish. A punch Issei blocked with ease, "Always" Issei finished with Yamato's fist blocked by his right hand.
"What the hell." Yamato growled.
"Now why don't you just relax. Maybe this will help." Issei smiled and aimed a swift kick right in between his balls.
"Bastard!" Yamato yelped as he fell to the ground in pain. Issei typically hated doing such a thing but Yamato was the exception.
"Thanks" Issei replied as he pulled back the same foot and kicked him in the side of the head knocking him out. As people started to approach, Issei couldn't hide his irritation.
(Scene Skip)
As he sat across from Sona Sitri or Sona Shitori as she was known in the human world, Issei couldn't hide his amusement. Sona had black hair that was kept in a bob and violet eyes with glasses adorning her face, "I'm surprised it's taken us this long to have a conversation Hyoudou." Sona said with a frown as she stared him down. As the leader of the Perverted Trio, Issei was constantly sought out by Sona. She suspected he was part of their antics but since nobody had ever seen him, they couldn't really met out punishment.
"I'm surprised that THIS is why we're actually having a conversation. Tosca was right there, and I can only assume you've talked to her about why I kicked that that idiot Yamato in the balls."
Sona was unbothered, "I talked to Tosca and she said that all she saw was you kicking Yamato in the face as he fell to the ground.
Issei scowled since Tosca screwed him over, "Well let me make this very simple for you. Motohama and I were minding my own business when Yamato came over. The petty idiot was angry that Motohama was having success with somebody he was interested in and wanted to intimidate him. When I called him a petty idiot, he tried to punch me in the face, key word tried. I blocked his punch, kicked him in the balls and as he fell to the ground kicked him in the face. End of discussion."
Sona flinched at how easily Issei admitted to what he did, "I'm surprised that you would be so ruthless." Sona said calmly.
"If you only knew." Issei rolled his eyes.
"What does that mean." Sona scowled.
"Ask Tsubasa about the Sanzen championship incident and she'll tell you why." Issei smiled. Sanzen was on the verge of the first soccer title in the school's history and many expected for Issei and Yamato to lead the group as the paired strike force for the team. When the day of the match came Issei arrived and was told that his uniform along with all the spares were missing. The team lost 3-1 and everyone suspected that the formation change required was the reason.
When it was investigated later on it was confirmed that Yamato snuck on campus late at night and stole the uniforms. He was suspended for two weeks for the incident, but that was it as far as the school was concerned. Issei suspected that his father, who was a prominent member of the school board, was one of the reasons. Issei retired from being the Swiss Army knife not long after that and many blamed Yamato for it, something that wasn't true, but was believed to be the case and Yamato's reputation was shattered afterwards.
Sona looked at him strangely, "I'll leave it at this. Try not to get in more trouble."
"I make no promises Sona. I won't initiate anything with that idiot, but if he tries anything with me, he suffers." Issei said calmly.
"Very well Hyoudou" Sona frowned. A situation like this could end badly and she was hoping to nip it in the bud. Clearly that wasn't going to happen.
"Thank you" Issei replied before getting up to leave. He walked outside to find Motohama sitting on the chair with Reika next to him. Reika had dark brown hair that was in a ponytail with green eyes and a B cup chest.
"Issei, are you okay?" Moto said nervously as he stood up to face him.
"I'm fine. Just tell Sona what happened, and you'll be okay." Issei said calmly.
"Sorry about this Moto. I never thought Yamato would be this ridiculous." Reika frowned as she sat next to him.
Issei smiled at the interaction, "Hey Reika it's not your fault. Yamato is a petty moron and everyone who knows his real personality is aware of that."
"Got it." Reika smiled.
"Now if you don't mind, I'm going to get to class." Issei smiled but he had no intention of doing so. After leaving the Student Council office, he went to the nurse's office where Yamato was sleeping off what Issei did to him earlier. Luckily for him, the nurse wasn't there, and it was time for some revenge.
"So what are you going to do to him partner."
"I'm going to… get creative." Issei smiled.
CREATE SKILL: PERMANENT IMPOTENCY- Target of skill will be permanently impotent unless skill is removed
- 7000 LP
A surprisingly low number but Issei wasn't upset by that.
BESTOW SKILL TO YAMATO NISHIKORI
-10000 LP
TOTAL LP
310,200
"How about that" Issei chuckled at the irony of the situation. When the Sanzen incident happened Issei had 17,500 LP but he was afraid that any revenge would cost him all of his LP. The best part was that not only did he have more than enough LP but using Get Creative wasted so little magic that nobody would realize what he did until much later.
"Well done partner. A perfect revenge and one that nobody can trace back to you."
"That's the point" Issei smiled as he left the nurses office and returned to class. Yamato would be in for a rude awakening later and it was a shame he wouldn't be there to see it.
(Scene Skip)
Issei smiled as class came to an end and he made his way home. He wasn't surprised at all to find Yamato and his goon squad waiting for him at the entrance to the school, "You bastard. You'll pay for what you did to me." Yamato growled as he cracked his knuckles.
"What did I do to you Yamato." Issei chuckled as he dropped his things to focus on the fight.
Yamato was about to scream but his buddy stopped him, "Let's just get him Yamato" his buddy Kaido said with a glare on his face.
"Yeah." Daisuke another of his goon squad frowned.
"You're toast Hyoudou." Shiro scowled.
"This will be good." Kai the final of his goon squad growled.
'This should be fun' Ddraig chuckled knowing a battle was on the way.
'Yeah' Issei smiled as he allowed some of his power to flow freely. They suspected he had powers but didn't know anything and as long as he just used regular strength, he would stay that way.
Kai charged first and as he aimed a punch at his face. Issei ducked before sending an uppercut into his jaw.
"GWAHH" Kai frowned as he was sent flying.
Issei didn't have time to relax because he was flanked by Shiro and Daisuke each aiming to punch him from the sides, "Amateurs." Issei scoffed. Timing it just right, he nudged Shiro so he and Daisuke would nail each other in the face which is exactly what they did.
"Shiro you moron." Daisuke growled.
"That was your fault Daisuke." Shiro winced.
"You're both idiots" Issei smiled before chopping Shiro in the neck and as he fell swiftly dodging a punch from Daisuke before hitting him in the stomach with a brutal knee. Both were knocked out from the assault.
"What the fuck" Kaido growled.
"Who's next" Issei smiled.
"BASTARD!" Kai shouted before charging Issei.
"That won't do anything" Issei smiled as he spun around Kai's punch and appeared behind him before aiming a kick at the back of his right knee.
"GAHHH!" Kai screamed in pain as his knee buckled.
"Buh bye." Issei smirked before kicking him in the back of the head knocking him out. With them done it was time to deal with Yamato who was shocked by the display of strength.
"What the hell. How the heck are you this strong." Yamato gasped.
"I was the Swiss Army knife dumbass. That included a few stints in the karate club also. Now how about I show you what I've learned." Issei smiled ready to really give him the business at least that was his plan, until somebody interesting appeared in front of them.
"That's enough Issei. You've proven your point." Tsubasa frowned. Tsubasa Yura was a tall girl with blue shoulder length hair and blue eyes with a pretty boy face.
"How long have you been watching Tsubasa." Issei frowned.
"Long enough to know that- LOOK OUT!" Tsubasa screamed as Yamato charged him with a knife in his hand. He must've grabbed it while Issei was distracted by Tsubasa which annoyed him to no end.
"Make him suffer." Ddraig ordered. A simple fight was one thing but bringing a weapon changed everything.
'Got it' Issei smiled before turning towards a charging Yamato.
ACTIVATE SKILL: KILLER INTENT
Issei focused a massive amount of killer intent on Yamato, and it caused him to fall to the ground in fear dropping his knife in the process, "What the hell" Yamato gasped as sweat dripped down his body.
"That was a mistake Yamato." Issei smiled as he walked over. Yamato chose violence and Issei was more than happy to give him what he wanted.
Tsubasa froze as she watched Issei pick up the knife and was well aware of what it could mean, "Issei don't do it. The rest of the council is on the way. You do something and you won't be able to avoid punishment."
"Yes, but with you as my witness this is simply self-defense." Issei smiled as he grabbed the knife and focused on Yamato who was still suffering from the killer intent.
"Stay back! Stay back you monster." Yamato complained.
Issei was fully intent on taking care of his Yamato problem Tsubasa be damned, "Time to end this for good Yamato" Issei smiled as he got closer.
"Issei STOP!" Tsubasa shouted. Yamato was a prick, but he didn't deserve to die.
Issei turned towards Tsubasa and he saw the look of horror on the face and the fact she was on the verge of tears. Issei hated Yamato as much as anybody but seeing Tsubasa like that was enough to override his hatred, "Consider yourself lucky Yamato." Issei spat before spinning back and walking over to a surprised Tsubasa.
"Thank you." Tsubasa said weakly. She knew the history between those two and Yamato deserved to pay for what he did, but she would never forgive herself if she watched Issei kill Yamato.
"I can't let you cry like that Tsubasa even for this fool." Issei smiled before handing her the knife and kissing her on the cheek. It spoke to how displeased he was that he didn't even gain LP from the act as Issei grabbed his things and walked towards the entrance passed a paralyzed Yamato.
"Issei." Tsubasa yelled wondering what he would do.
"Tell Sona what happened, and I'll deal with whatever punishment I need to later. Right now I'm going home" Issei shouted back before leaving. This was just another headache in a series of them and Issei would deal with it, like they had the others.
(Scene Skip)
Issei relaxed in his room, still annoyed after what happened. "I'm surprised I came so close to actually killing him." Issei mused. Yamato was an idiot but to want to kill him was a bit much.
"You haven't had my power flow through you properly in ages. Plus he brought out a knife." Ddraig suggested.
Issei was about to reply, but a presence appeared right in front of his house one that was not only unexpected but very unpleasant, "What now" Issei scowled. Issei quickly used SUPPRESSION and walked to the door, opening it to find Rias Gremory herself in the Kuoh uniform.
"Hello Issei, may I come in." Rias smiled. Rias Gremory had fair skin with long red hair and blue eyes. She was also the owner of some of the largest breasts Issei had ever seen outside of his master and her queen Akeno.
Issei closed the door and walked out, "No because I have no idea what you're doing here, and surprise guests are not something I'm a fan of." Issei replied coldly.
Rias was a bit taken aback by his reaction but kept her cool, "I've come because I wanted to tell you what happened after you left."
Issei looked at Rias with a flat expression, "I don't need you to tell me something so obvious. The rest of the council arrived and took away Yamato and his goon squad and asked the witnesses. The council would learn Yamato and his dumbass squad were the aggressors and that what I did to them was self-defense. The only major issue is the knife but that was also Yamato. In other words, I'm sitting pretty." There was the fact he tried to turn Yamato's knife on him, but he stopped before actually doing anything.
"That's right." Rias replied.
"If that's all, I have nothing to discuss with you so scram." Issei said harshly.
Rias frowned because Issei was giving her nothing. That meant she had to try something else to get her to listen, "Don't you want to know what happened in case they want to get their revenge on you later."
"Not at all. Yamato is as good as expelled and even if he wasn't, he wouldn't dream of coming after me after I school his goon squad. Yamato is a petty fool, but he isn't so braindead as to think his next attempt would be as successful as this one." Issei replied with a clear disinterest in his voice.
Rias cursed because she had him, "So" Rias started to say before Issei spoke.
"Rias let me stop you right there. I know you want me for something, but there is nothing you can give me that I can't get myself."
Rias smiled because Issei messed up at least as far as she was concerned, "There is one thing I can give you that you can't yourself."
"If you're offering up yourself as collateral don't bother." Issei quickly replied dismissively.
"So the leader of the perverted trio doesn't want the best breasts in school." Rias smiled though she was a bit annoyed that it was coming to this.
"I'm fairly certain you have the second-best breasts in the school. The best belong to Akeno." Issei retorted.
Rias twitched because he had her there, "Be that as it may I still have the second best. I'm sure you'd enjoy these breasts of mine quite a bit."
"I probably would but I also have principle and your breasts belong to another already which means I can't have them." Issei smiled deciding to reveal one of his cards.
Rias's eyes widened, "How!? The rest of the question wasn't required.
"That my dear Rias is a secret and one you will never discover. Now if that's all I'd like for you to leave." Issei smiled.
Rias was furious that her latest attempt failed, "Very well. Have a nice day Issei." Rias replied stunned by her utter failure.
(Scene Skip)
'Today was a good day' Issei thought to himself as he watched the track and field club work. Sona called for him to confirm his side of the story and Yamato was expelled with his goon squad suspended for a month for what they tried to pull. The only issue was his little freak out at the end, but he just claimed an adrenaline rush and Sona brought it. He got another warning and that was it. His day got even better when he got a text from Murayama saying to meet him in the kendo locker room for a foursome with her Katase and Himari. He naturally agreed, but since he needed to kill some time, he watched his two buddies at work. Seeing Matsuda running again made him smile but the real shock was watching Motohama.
"Eri you did fine. It takes a little while to get used to the new form." Motohama said calmly as he talked to a first-year girl with short black hair. When he pats her on the back to reassure her, the girl seemed to smile before walking away.
"It's hard to believe that a girl can be comfortable around him." A voice spoke up breaking Issei's good mood.
"What the hell do you want Tosca." Issei frowned as Tosca sat next to him. He could see she was without her bindings again, no doubt in order to try and convince him to help.
"I heard Motohama was actually helping the track and field club and I couldn't believe it and decided to come over."
'Yeah right.' Issei thought to himself. "Don't you have business with the ORC to handle."
"Yes, and I'm doing that right now." Tosca replied.
Issei smirked, "So what. You think some ghost is haunting the club and that's why they've let Motohama join." Issei scoffed.
"Better than some of the rumors I've heard. Some people think Motohama is blackmailing the captain." Tosca replied cheekily.
"Makes sense. People are idiots after all." Issei replied back.
"They are but we both know why I'm here." Tosca said firmly.
"Yes we do, and you didn't do me any favors when I know you saw what happened with Yamato the first time and played stupid. Maybe if you hadn't the latest mess wouldn't have happened." Issei said coldly.
Tosca frowned because she had him there. She was annoyed that he wouldn't help Rias and played the fool, "What will it take for you to help me. Name the price and it's yours."
"Funny story Tosca, Rias came over to tell me the obvious results of my second encounter with Yamato and was hoping to gain my favor by doing so. I'll tell you the same thing I told her. You have nothing that I want." Issei said with a hint of amusement in his voice.
"What" Tosca gasped. She had no idea that Rias came over to him directly.
"To be fair you do have a lovely body, but I have Murayama Katase and Himari along with Tsubasa Reya and Momo if I want to enjoy a beautiful girl. You might as well stop wasting my time and find some other way to solve your problem." Issei said coldly. He was growing tired of all of this.
Tosca was shocked at all of that, "I see" Tosca frowned before staring at Issei with a sad look in her face.
'Good grief' Issei thought to himself seeing the sad look on her face. Tosca and Kiba were normally as aloof as anybody but her expression showed how desperate she was to get him to help. Then again, the fact she offered her body was proof of that, "Do you really want my help that badly." Issei sighed.
"Yes. I'll do anything you say Issei. Please just help me" Tosca said as she began to cry.
'Why am I so weak to crying girls.' Issei groaned recalling Tsubasa and how she stopped him earlier. He was going to regret this but decided to give in at least in some regards. Rias needed help with a rating game, and she thought he could be the key to victory. She'd be right, but not in the way she originally hoped, "Fighting somebody with immortality is an absolute prick, but it can be done." Issei said calmly.
"Huh" Tosca blinked not expecting that type of response.
"I won't get involved myself, but I can help you win against Riser Phenex."
Tosca's eyes widened since Issei knew who Rias was facing, but she couldn't look a gift horse in the mouth, "So what's your advice." Tosca said happily.
"True immortality doesn't actually exist at least in my experience. It's a combination of a massive healing factor and incredibly high stamina. It's an annoying combination but there are three ways to deal with it."
"What are they" Tosca said calmly.
"The first way is to remove the healing factor. If you can't heal yourself. Regular damage will do the job. The second way is via overwhelming physical power. An onslaught of physical power will not only weaken the person but exhaust the stamina that fuels the healing factor. Magical damage can work but it's significantly easier to weaken stamina with physical damage. The final way is via poison or burn damage."
"Poison or burn damage." Tosca said with a raised eyebrow.
"That's right. Most healing factors can't deal with that type of damage. Any factor that can get would require a massive drain and constantly poisoning them would eventually drain their stamina."
"I see" Tosca smiled. The first two things were impossible for her group, but poison damage was a very distinct possibility.
"Good now get out of here." Issei frowned.
Tosca blinked in shock, "That's it. You're just letting me go."
"Yes. Consider this a freebee. Now get out and don't bother me again" Issei deadpanned.
"Thanks Issei" Tosca smiled before kissing him on the cheek and leaving.
'Okay then.' Issei replied a bit caught off guard by that.
'I can't help but think you could've done more with that.'
'Probably but I don't want to get too involved with them.'
'You say that as though you won't be sleeping with two other devils before too long.'
'Good point.' Issei chuckled. He hadn't slept with Reya or Tsubasa yet, but it wouldn't be long until he did. Hopefully, this would mark the end of his interactions with Tosca.
(Scene Skip)
As Issei left Kuoh's campus at last he was drained and in a very good way. Murayama Katase and Himari drained his balls big time, and his massive stamina was pushed to its limit. He did get a healthy amount of LP for his efforts.

As he made his way to the gate, he was surprised to find Reya waiting for him. Reya Kusaka had long brown hair in two matching braids and brown eyes she had a nice pair of C cup breasts, but he wasn't focused on that. He was more curious why she was waiting for him.
"Somehow you got the best of both worlds Issei. You're not the Swiss Army Knife again, but you're certainly reaping the benefits of being him." Reya smiled.
"I have no idea what you're talking about Reya." Issei chuckled.
"So you didn't just have a foursome in the kendo locker room." Reya said with a raised eyebrow.
"Spying on me Reya."
"Momo couldn't stop bragging about how good you were in bed. When's my shot Issei." Reya replied changing the subject.
"How about Saturday afternoon at 12." Issei smiled.
"Deal but before you go, I should let you in on a fun little secret."
"What's that?" Issei said with a raised eyebrow.
Reya smiled as she walked up to Issei and whispered, "After you gave Tosca that advice, you should've just fucked her. As far as Kiba's concerned helping Rias is more important than doing anything with Tosca. She would've been putty in your capable hands."
Issei twitched heavily since that meant she overheard his encounter with Tosca, "If I were you, I'd be more focused on how much I'm going to make you scream after our date is done." Issei replied with a lustful smile.
"Sounds good to me." Reya smiled as Issei left.
(Scene Skip)
Issei was barely ten minutes away from the campus when he sensed a presence following him. It wasn't the devil that Rias sent to follow him before which meant that he had a new stalker. 'I'm fairly popular aren't I' Issei smirked.
"Yes, but this one is different. Let's see what they're all about." Ddraig suggested.
'Yeah' Issei replied before changing his path. The presence pursing him continued to follow until he reached the park where he met Raynare. Realizing that the presence had stopped Issei decided to sit at the park since he went the opposite way from home, and he did just come off a foursome.
"I think you scared them off. They didn't expect you to know they were tracking you."
'Oh well.' Issei replied as he got up to go home.
"Wait!" a voice shouted, and he sat back down with a smile on his face. A moment later, a person walked into the clearing and he was pleasantly surprised by what he found. The person was a young girl who looked to be about 13 with blonde hair in drill curls on the side, bangs above her face, and big blue eyes. Her outfit was a very light pink dress with white frills. a magenta bow, and pair of red shoes with white socks. Issei could sense that she was a devil, but he had no idea who she was and why she was here.
"And just who are you" Issei asked with intrigue. She wasn't a servant of Rias's or Sona's which meant that she was either connected to his master or to Rias's fiancée.
"If you must know my name is Ravel. That's all someone like you deserves to know." Ravel said in a haughty voice.
Issei rolled his eyes, "This was fun." Issei smiled as he got up to leave.
"Now hold on." Ravel said quickly.
"You just said that all I deserve to know is your name. Frankly I despise arrogance like that so goodbye." Issei replied before starting to walk away.
"Don't you want to know why I had you followed." Ravel wondered.
"Not enough to listen to some arrogant brat." Issei rolled his eyes.
"How dare you! I'm devil nobility!"
Issei turned around and gave her a flat stare, "And I should care why?"
Ravel stepped back in confusion, "You… aren't you friends with Rias?"
Whoever this girl was she clearly wasn't very smart, "And what made you think that?" Issei replied with a chuckle.
"Wait you're not… but what about Tosca coming over to you."
"Ahh see that's a funny story. Tosca wanted me to talk to Rias about something, but I wouldn't listen. She tried again using a more interesting persuasion method, but we were predictably interrupted by that fool Kiba."
"More interesting?" Ravel said with a raised eyebrow.
"Yep, but that's enough talk. I have homework to do, and I don't feel like wasting my time with you any longer." Issei scoffed before getting up.
"Did you talk to Rias?" Ravel asked.
"Eventually yes, but not by choice. She came to see me, and I told her off before sending her away."
"So… you don't care about what happens to her?" The girl said in disbelief.
"Personally no. I don't know her very well and although she has wonderful breasts, that's all I know about her."
"What's with you men and breasts." Ravel frowned.
"I'm not so sure I should be discussing this with a little kid." Issei deadpanned.
"KID! I'll have you know I'm a teenager. I'm just not as ridiculous busty as girls like Rias."
"Whatever you say." Issei dismissed. This was getting stupid but at least it was humorous compared to Tosca and Rias.
Ravel twitched at the clear dismissal, "You don't believe me, do you?" Ravel replied angrily.
"It doesn't make a difference to me." Issei said nonchalantly.
"Then why did you bring up Rias's breasts!?"
"Because you asked if I care what happened to her. The answer is I don't. Now if you aren't going to do anything other than lose your composure, I'll be on my way." Issei replied and he walked by the young girl.
"Jerk!" Ravel frowned.
"See ya pipsqueak."
"MY NAME IS RAVEL!" Ravel scowled as Issei left a fuming Ravel behind.
(Scene Skip)
'Ddraig.'
"Yes partner'
'Why the hell is the girl from yesterday waiting in front of my door." Issei groaned as he finished getting dressed the next morning. As he got out of the shower, he sensed her presence appear relatively close and walk up to his house. How the hell she knew where he lived was one annoyance, but the bigger question was why she was here.
'I don't know but she seems hesitant.'
'Then let's go see what she wants.' Issei replied with annoyance as he walked downstairs and to the front door. Opening it up he found Ravel standing in front of his door but not in her dress from yesterday or another outfit fit for the nobility but the Kuoh uniform without the cape.
"Can I come in now. This uniform feels uncomfortable." Ravel frowned.
Issei could only roll his eyes, "Get in here before anybody sees you, you stupid girl." Issei frowned before opening the door and inviting her in. There were a few people from Kuoh who lived nearby that he didn't bother with. If they saw Ravel it would be a headache that he really didn't need.
Ravel wanted to say something but in truth he was right, "Thanks" Ravel said calmly before walking in as Issei shut the door.
"Issei was somebody at the door." his mother asked curiously from the kitchen.
"It was just an annoying door to door salesman. You know how they are." Issei shouted.
"Alright. Breakfast will be ready soon."
"Cool" Issei replied as he continued to lead Ravel through the house. Luckily Ravel was smart enough to levitate so that her footsteps didn't echo as Issei led her to his room. She really had no right to complain since she was the one who came over unannounced.
"So this is what a teenage boy's room looks like." Ravel said in awe. It was a relatively clean room with very little beside a drawer for his clothes a desk for homework and a closet. She could do without the posters of women, but he was a young man which meant there was nothing she could do about it.
"So you've never been in your brother's room. You know the one that's engaged to Rias." Issei deadpanned.
Ravel's eyes widened, "I'd ask how you know that but you're not going to tell me are you."
"Nope. Frankly the only reason I invited you in is because it's a pain to talk outside. Speaking of which." Issei stopped in order to activate a privacy barrier around his room. "So is there any reason you came outside of proving to me you had boobs." Issei deadpanned. With the uniform on instead of her dress, Issei could see that she had a fairly large bust.
Ravel blushed, "Well what was I supposed to do. You insulted my pride." Ravel replied.
Issei facepalmed at that, "Give me a break, any dumbass with half a brain would notice how unflattering that dress you were wearing was. Besides, I dismissed you because you completely misunderstood the scope of my relationship with Rias's peerage and made assumptions that weren't true. Frankly you're a lovely girl Ravel and if I didn't know you were a devil, I would've definitely given you the time of day. Of course I do know and my patience with devils is gone thanks to that idiot Tosca" Issei groaned.
"I see." Ravel blushed not expecting something like that.
"So yeah. I don't get along with Rias at all and outside of some small data on dealing with immortals, I didn't tell her anything."
"What!" Ravel gasped not expecting that.
"Yeah. I may not be a devil like you but if immortality is anything like the video games, I know your weaknesses. Whether or not she's capable of doing anything about it is another matter." Issei deadpanned.
Ravel frowned because his advice could be dangerous, "What did you tell her?"
"Now why would I tell you that." Issei smiled.
Ravel froze because she had a point, "Then how about we make an exchange."
Issei twitched heavily, "In other words if I tell you what I told Tosca, you'll do something for me."
"Exactly. That's how devils do things. I'm sure you made some deal with Tosca for her to tell you also." Ravel frowned.
"She wanted to, but I dismissed her after telling her what I knew. All I really wanted was for her to leave me alone." Issei smirked.
"Huh?" Ravel said in confusion.
"I asked Tosca to leave me the heck alone because I was tired of dealing with devils." Issei replied.
Ravel frowned, "Then I guess I'll just be on my way also. You're right that there are certain ways to deal with my family's immortality, but Rias isn't capable of any of them."
"Then get out of here." Issei deadpanned.
"Alright but one more question." Ravel insisted.
"Fine" Issei groaned in annoyance. As long as she left, he would humor her for a bit longer.
"You gave Tosca advice on how she can deal with my brother. If you were fighting him yourself what would you do." Ravel asked curiously.
Issei smiled, "Nice try Ravel, but I won't tell you how skilled and powerful I am. Besides I'm not going to fight your brother so that doesn't matter."
Ravel clicked her tongue but couldn't hide a smile at the interaction. He somehow saw through her perfectly and she appreciated that, "See ya around Issei." Ravel replied before creating a magic circle and leaving. This was more interesting than she thought, but since the young man in front of her wouldn't be a threat, she decided to leave it at that.
(Phenex mansion)
Leaving her magic circle Ravel Phenex hoped to get a few minutes to change her clothes before somebody came looking for her, "Hello Lady Ravel." A voice said in teasing tone ruining that plan.
'Oh crap.' Ravel thought to herself as she spun towards the voice and found her brother's bishop and her personal maid Mihae standing in front of her bed. "Hello Mihae." Ravel said nervously.
"Now why do you have the uniform for Lady Rias's school on Ravel. I'm pretty sure your brother said he would only watch from afar." Mihae said curiously.
"Well… I noticed that Rias showed interest in one of the young men there and I wanted to see what his relationship with Lady Rias was." Ravel revealed. Naturally they had no relationship so it was a waste of time but that didn't matter now.
"I see. Tell me all about this young man I understand Lady Rias recently obtained a healer as well." Mihae smiled.
'Me and my big mouth.' Ravel cursed mentally. "Don't worry Mihae, they don't have a relationship." Ravel said quickly wanting to nip this in the bud.
"That may be so but it's obvious Lady Rias forgets who she belongs to. We would do well to remind her of that and if a regular young man must pay the price so be it." Mihae said her expression turning vicious.
'Sorry Issei. Let's hope your advice is more useful for you than it was for Rias" Ravel thought to herself.
That's it for Chapter 2 guys and the fun is just getting started. Next time Issei must deal with a very angry Riser Phenex and everyone is about to learn just how powerful Issei really is.
