Before we get started, wanted to mention a shoutout to Tyrant Overlord Killidia. Got some good idea's, brainstorming, comparing what other's have done, what works, what doesn't, that kinda stuff. Anywhoo, thanks again Tyrant!

Chapter FOURTEEN (End of a Strange Tale)

After a few minutes of digesting some oddball information, some of which, sounded like something from ancient scripts of old, while other bits of this rather queer book, sounded as though parts of it were written like a rom com novel. Standing up, while trying not to knock the three angels that were leaning on him from multiple directions, Issei laughs lightly.

As everyone turns their attention toward the laughter, he speaks up. "Well, that was quite the story. A lot of it felt very strangely reminiscent but it helps. I know it's strange, but I feel a bit better after hearing this story. I do have some questions though, if all of you don't mind?" Azazel smiles, nodding, then looking at the other girls as they followed up with their own nods.

"The memories I have, living here, with my, erm, the Hyoto family, those were all implanted right?" Azazel nods, "yes, up until the two years you have been living here, yes false memories were placed inside of your consciousness, for obvious reasons as you can now tell." Issei nods in understanding. "Issei, you have to understand, your parents, the Hyoto's, they were a very sad couple, on the brink of divorce. They tried and tried, but were unable to have a child of their own. Don't you see, you were the best thing to happen to this family, your family. You are the glue that bonded and insured their loving future. They are your parents Issei, just like I am your uncle, Penemue, your aunt. Now, it seems as though your family has grown."

As Azazel takes a look around the room. "I never ordered Raynare or Kalawarner to love you." Both said angels looked back at Azazel with death glares. Then Azazel focuses his attention on Sona. "I am also very sure that Sona wasn't ordered by her parents to love you either." Sona blushes and attempts to stand behind the much taller Rias, avoiding any stares. Azazels attention falls back at Issei. "Do you understand?"

Still feeling ashamed for breaking down like a child at the Gregory Hospital, Issei does the best he can to not shed tears right now, as his heart is beating a mile a minute. Looking at the floor, he can no longer hold back. Out of nowhere, Issei feels somebody embracing him. Afraid to look back up, he feels another yet another person, joining the embrace. This happened 3 more times, before Issei finally opened his watery eyes. Azazel, Penemue, Raynare, Kalwarner and Sona were all in a group hug with a very shocked Issei.

After the heartwarming moment, everyone finally released their holds. "Issei, your Aunt and I need to get back to Gregory. Raynare and Kalwarner, your orders stand. Also, Raynare, think about our conversation earlier." He winks at her. "Kalwarner, I have a bit of some information for you, as a goodbye present". Azazel walks up to said angel and whispers in her ear, "my nephew, he has a thing for older chicks, I have access to his web browser history, just thought you should know." Kalwarner giggles out loud, "thank you Azazel Sama!" Backing away from a very happy and drooling Kalwarner, Azazel finally looks at Sona and Rias. "Sona, you're smart and calculating. Strategy, tactics, thinking ahead, these are your specialties.

However, with all of the skills you've obtained, I fear you may still need to learn how to share, when it comes to a specific someone". After said comment, he makes his way to the front door. Penemue stands up, before leaving, she turns to Issei. "You will no longer have bad dreams. I will not allow it." She then turns to Raynare and Kalwarner, pulling something from her pocket. "I know the two of you already sleep with my nephew. From now on, each night, one of you will need to cast this circle. It will be complicated at first, but once you get the hang of it, you're looking at a 2 minute casting time. Don't be discouraged if it takes the two of you twenty or more minutes to get it right the first time. Once this circle is cast, it will last for 24 hours. Its purpose? A nerve blocker of sorts. Everything moves in wavelengths, including mind-magic. If Ophis, or someone else, is attempting to poison my nephews mind while he sleeps, well, this circle will put an end to it. It requires a physical drawing, then a casting, followed by skinship for the person being protected." Curious, Raynare (having a blush) and Kalwarner (also having a blush) look at the paper.

Listening to what is being said, Sona becomes quite angry again, she also realizes that she never got a true answer from Azazel when she asked about his faction, getting too close to Issei. Then, she just couldn't take it anymore. "Thee three of us!", Sona yelled out. Penemue, Raynare and Kalwarner stopped what they were doing and looked at the Sitri devil, trying to verify what they just heard. "Yeah, the three of us will be sleeping with Issei, so.. (Sona's voice trails off), I will need to learn how to use this circle too."
