Here's the third episode! Enjoy!
A guy in tighty-whities?! Issei thought pervertedly. That's a rare sight - a SUPER rare sight! And he's quite cute and handsome too...wait! Not important right now! She and the young priest continued gazing at each other, blushing.
"A-ah..." the priest muttered, rubbing the back of his head and avoiding eye contact with her. "S-sorry about that!" He closed his eyes and smiled nervously, bowing down quickly at her. "I tend to forget my belt and sometimes, my pants slip under this every now and then." His eyes shot open when he thought of something, blushing hard. "W-wait! You didn't see my...uh..."
Issei shook her head immediately. "Oh no, of course not! I don't know what you're talking about exactly," she lied, also blushing hard.
He smiled, lost his blush, and sighed in relief. "That's good. I just tripped, that's all." She nervously smiled back at him.
Oh my god, he's my type! she thought happily. He's blonde and cute and handsome! I gotta keep the conversation going...um...ah-ha! She cleared her throat and asked him, "Isn't the weather nice today?" She immediately cringed at what she said. What a lame attempt...
"It is, actually," the young priest replied, much to her surprise. "I got distracted though, so I became...well, lost." He smiled nervously at her again. "So I need your help, if you don't mind." His smile went from nervous to happy. The brown-haired girl would be more than glad to help a cutie like him!
Episode 3: I Got A Friend! - Part 1
Both the priest and Issei began walking through town together, almost like a guide helping a tourist. "So, are you on a trip?" she asked.
"Oh, no," he answered, shaking his head. "I was appointed to this town's church."
"So you're a priest?" She scanned his body. "That explains your clothes...don't priests wear their clothes under their vestments though?"
The priest laughed nervously and sweat-dropped. "Yeah...I was in such a hurry, I forgot to wear pants." He blushed, looking a bit embarrassed. "I hoped no one saw my...underwear..."
I did! And it was a great si- She smacked the top of her head with her palm to stop herself. Grrr! Stop, Issei!
"I'm sure no one else was there."
He sighed in relief once again. "Great." He looked down at her and smiled again, making her blush. "You know, it's nice meeting a lady like you. It must be divine guidance."
She giggled. She felt great that a cute, handsome guy like this priest liked her. "Well..." she said before seeing his cross necklace. When she did, a sudden chill went all around her body, making her flinch.
The priest became concerned when he saw her expression change. "Is something wrong?"
She shook her head once again. "N-no, it's nothing!" she lied again. What was that feeling though?
Suddenly, both of them stopped walking when they heard a little girl cry. They look to see the child with an exposed scrapped knee. The priest ran to her, leaving Issei behind, knelt before the child, and patted her head. He gave her a warm, friendly smile.
"Hey, hey, it's alright," he said soothingly to the child, making her look up at him and stop crying. "Don't cry: it's just a little scrape. You are a little girl after all." He then hovered his hands over her wound, green energy emitting from it. Both the girl and Issei watched in awe as the scrape began to heal up.
"Her wound..." the brown-haired female murmured before feeling a phantom pain on her left hand, causing her to flinch again and massage it. I just felt some sharp pain in my hand. Why? She'd have to ask President later...
When the green energy disappeared and the knee healed up, the young priest looked at the little girl and said happily, "There you go! All new and healed up!"
The child was in joy and hugged him. "Thank you, sir!" She then ran off, happier than before. The priest looked up at Issei's awed look and stood up.
"Sorry, force of habit," he said as he winked at her.
As they both continued walking, Issei stared at the priest's hands, which were holding a suitcase. One of them had a ring on it. What was that power? Whatever it did, I definitely felt something in my left hand... She focused on the ring. Does that mean-
"I must have surprised you, miss," the young priest stated.
The female pervert halted her thoughts, surprised at the sudden statement, and replied, "Oh, uh, definitely! You have a pretty amazing power!"
He looked at her happily. "Thanks! It's a power granted by God." He then looked away from her and muttered in a solemn tone, "Yes...an amazing power." Issei was curious to why he said it like that. It truly was, right? He healed that little girl's scrap in no time! Was there something-
He looked up at something and stopped, making her stop as well. "Oh, look! That must be the place!" The female pervert looked up and saw the town's church from far.
"Yep, that's the only church we have in town," Issei described before another chill crawled underneath her skin. She tried to ignore it though and continued, "But...I don't see anybody coming over there."
"Oh...well, I'd like to return the favor you've granted me, so can you accompany me there?" the priest asked kindly.
A devil like her going to a place like that? Even she knew that'd be trouble! "N-no!" she blurted out, her hands and head shaking. "I, uh, have something to do!"
He looked down on the road and frowned. "I see." He looked back up at Issei however, still keeping his kind demeanor. "Well, if you want to know, my name is Asher Argento - Ash for short, but I don't mind if you call me Asher." He smiled cutely once more.
The female devil smiled back. "I'm Hyoudou Issei, Issei for short."
He nodded. "Well then, Issei-san, I'm happy to meet someone as kind as you arriving in Japan!"
She blushed, smiled modestly, and looked away from him. "Ah, well...thank you!" She giggled nervously. To have someone so cute and handsome actually LIKE her...
"Please visit me at the church when you have the time, promise?" He extended his hand out to her, which she gladly shook.
"I will, don't worry."
"Thanks, Issei-san!" Issei blushed once again and let go of his hand, turning around.
"Well, I'll see you around!"
"See you later!" She turned back to Asher to see him smiling and waving goodbye to her. She couldn't help but smile and feel her heart beating fast.
He's a really nice guy, she thought, waving back at him. He's especially rare since he's a foreigner...I like it!
After school, Issei met Richard on the empty balcony in the main hall. "Don't go anywhere near the church again," Richard scolded the brown-haired girl, walking to the wooden railing of the stairs. "Churches are hostile territory for us devils. You'll incite battles between God and devils just by stepping in them. And you don't know when THOSE guys will throw a light-spear at you."
Issei became scared. "S-seriously?" she asked. "Then the chill I got from the church is..."
The red-haired devil turned around and leaned his body on the railing, his thighs and bulge on emphasis. "Your demonic instincts possibly detected danger," he explained. "Staying around someone from the church is inviting death, Isa - especially since the exorcists of the Church wield Sacred Gears." Now his chest outlined by the uniform was on emphasis.
Her eyes widened. Sacred Gears... Then, the image of Asher healing the little girl's wound crossed her mind. Does that mean Asher has a...
"Isa," Richard said, making her break out of her thoughts and look at him. "To exorcise a demon means erasing their existence. You'll be turned into nothing-" He paused to get off of the railing and glare at her. "You'll feel nothing, you'll see nothing, you'll do nothing. Do you know what that's like?"
Sounds scary...to be absolutely nothing... she thought, fearful of the possibility. There was that time she almost died from Yuuto, but she could still think, at least. The female devil shook her head. "No, not at all, sir."
Richard sighed and turned away from her. "I'm sorry if I sound upset, Isa. Just be careful from now on, alright?" He then began to walk away from her, his bulge on emphasis. She sighed as well.
"I will..." she muttered sadly, her hands behind her back. Again...she did it again...
In the clubroom, Issei laid on a couch, sighing. "All that I've accomplished is being yelled at by President..." she murmured to herself. Seeing Asher's smiling face in her mind, she added, "I'm sorry, Asher. I can't fulfill our promise..." She was sure he would be heartbroken, but it would be best-
All of a sudden, Akihiko's head popped up from behind the coach and stated, "The president is just looking out for you, Issei-chan~." She yelped a little and sat up, the raven-haired man standing up.
"A-Akihiko-senpai!" she exclaimed. He could only chuckle before Richard entered into the room.
"Akihiko, I thought you already went back," he said with a raised eyebrow.
"The archduchess just sent us a message," Akihiko informed him.
He shot back. "The archduchess?"
Akihiko's face turned serious. "Apparently, a stray demon is running loose in this town." Richard's face turned serious as well. Issei was confused at the situation. What did he mean by a "stray demon"?
Much later at night, the Gremory peerage headed to the spot the stray was at by magic circle teleportation. "They used to be a servant for a demon," Yumi explained.
"Like us?" asked Issei.
The blonde-haired girl nodded. "Sometimes, demons betray or even kill their masters so they can live however they please." The peerage then appeared in the woods near the place where the demon lived.
"Really?"
"Yes. They are what we call a stray devil." Betraying...killing their masters...how heartless. She would never do that to the President. She would never want to be a stray for any reason.
"We're headed to a deserted home," informed Richard. "A stray devil is said to lure people in to eat them."
Shivers went down the brown-haired girl's spine. "E-eat them?!"
"Our mission is to take it down." The team then walked into the home, Yumi opening it for everyone.
"You will see the utter monstrosity of abusing demonic power and not having a master," she added. Man, Issei didn't have time to be ready. Well, she had to be now!
When everyone was inside, she also went inside and closed the door. Everyone looked around. Issei worried about what the stray might look like. They might look hideous...
"Isa," Richard said.
She glanced at Richard. "Yes, President?" she replied.
"Do you know chess?"
She was puzzled at the random question. "Chess? Like the board game?"
He nodded. "Yes. I, the master, am the king, then there's a queen, the knights, the rooks, the bishops, and the pawns. Demons from the aristocracy assign these traits of these pieces to their subordinates."
"The traits of the pieces?"
"We call them 'Evil Pieces'."
Issei crossed her arms. "So, why do you need to assign them?"
"Tonight, you will observe how demons fight."
"Oh, uh, okay." She wondered how that could go. She could only think of Seduction Boys as a reference...
"He's here," announced Kabu. Everyone turned to his direction, waiting for the stray devil to appear.
"I smell something bad..." bellowed a distorted male voice. "At the same time, I smell something delicious~...might it be sweet?" Well-toned pecs and abs as a bulge appeared before the stray revealed himself entirely. "Or might it be bitter?"
The female pervert had her perverted face on, yelling enthusiastically, "Peeeeeeccs~! Aaaaaaabs~! Buullllge~!" A shame that his bulge was covered by hair. The hair also made his boots as well. His hair was dark and short while his eyes were grey.
Everyone tried their best to ignore Issei's reaction. "Stray devil type: Visor," stated the red-haired devil. "Nefarious beings that run away from their masters to fulfill their own desires. They deserve more than death for their sins." He glared at the stray with a certain look in his eyes. "In the name of Duchess Gremory, you will have your punishment!" He posed confidently, his hand pointing at the being.
"You insolent man!" the Visor barked. "I will cover you in blood as red as your hair!" He then ran his hands over his chest and bulge, practically playing with them both and laughing.
"Your line was as witty as I expect from a small fry like yourself," Richard said, unimpressed.
"So, this is a stray demon?" Issei asked before putting on her perverted face again. "I thought he might be an exhibitionist!" However...the rest of his actual body appeared, a hideous chest with hideous hands and fingers appearing. The Visor also had a blue jewel on his chest and a snake on its back. Issei shot back in shock and horror. "Wh-what the hell?!"
"I told you," Yumi said, smiling and giggling at her reaction. "They truly become terrible in their bodies and in their hearts."
"B-but he has nice abs and a nice bulge too! What a wast-" However, the brown-haired girl stopped as she noticed the Visor hover his hand above his nipples and the other above his bulge, a magic circle appearing on each. "Wait! Are those MAGIC CIRCLES?!" His nipples then became hardened and pointy while his covered penis was extending while she said that. He laughed crazily as he shot glowing beams through his nipples and penis.
The peerage ran out of the way, Richard grabbing Issei and crouching down with her out of the way as the beams hit the wall behind them, melting it. "Whoa! He really IS a monster!" Issei shouted fearfully.
Richard let go of her. "Don't let your guard down, Isa," he warned her. He then turned to Yumi. "Yumi!" The blonde-haired devil nodded as she got out a large sword and disappeared.
"What the - she disappeared!" the female pervert exclaimed.
The red-haired man stood up, his bulge appearing in Issei's view. "That's because she's so fast that you can't even see her," he explained, smiling. "Yumi represents a Knight. Her trait is speed-" The girl mentioned was then in front of the monstrous stray. "-and her sword is the strongest weapon." She then chopped off both the stray's arms off in a flash, causing him to scream. Kabu then appeared in front of him, his fists clenched.
"K-Kabu-kun! It's dangerous!" Issei cried out in panic. The stray's face then turned hideous, his eyes turning dark red, his teeth growing sharper and longer, and his tongue long and forked like a reptile's. His larger chest opened up to bare its sharp teeth as well. He screamed and lunged for the white-haired shouta.
"DIE!" he shouted as the chest "ate" him. The brown-haired girl gasped, but Richard smirked.
"Don't worry, Isa," he said confidently, making Issei look up at him with a puzzled look. She then saw Kabu himself open the monster's chest, half his underwear showing due to a missing chunk of his pants and his shirt ripped up, showing both his nipples. Issei's jaw dropped at the sight. "Kabu is a Rook. His traits are simple: tremendous strength and defensive ability. That kind of attack wouldn't leave a scratch on him."
"Begone, foul stray," he said in a cold voice before he smashed some of the stray's chest teeth with one punch, knocking him back to a wall.
I guess I should not anger Kabu-kun, then... Issei thought, stunned and a little scared.
"Akihiko!" Richard called out.
"Right away, President," he said as he closed his eyes, smiled, and began walking towards the wall, ready to make a magic circle. "Well then~, what should I do?" He chuckled.
However, the stray's larger arm lunged for Richard. Spotting that quickly, Issei shouted, "President!" He looked at her with a confused look, the hand reaching towards him. Wanting to protect him, she shouted, "Sacred Gear!" The red hard glove appeared on her left hand as well as her bow and arrow. She ran towards the hand, let out a battle cry, and shot an arrow to the hand. It dug into its skin and blew up, knocking Richard back and making him fall on his bottom, his bulge bouncing a little. His clothes were stained with blood. The Visor screamed once again. He looked up at Issei and blushed.
"Th-thank you," he said, stunned about what she did.
"Oh!" the female pervert interjected, blushing as well and placing a hand behind her head. "It's no problem. I instinctively..." He then stood up and walked beside her, making her stop talking.
Richard looked at the raven-haired man. "Akihiko, finish him off."
"A bad boy who tries to harm our President..." he said in a low voice before turning to the stray with a soft, yet sadistic face, smiling. "...will be punished~!" Electricity then sparked from his hands.
"Akihiko's the Queen," Richard stated. Issei wondered why he was called a Queen even though he's not female. "You might be thinking that Queens can only be women, but in reality, a Queen is the almighty vice commander combining their powers from the other pieces."
"O-oh." That made sense. Now she doesn't feel weird about Akihiko having the title anymore.
The Visor was twitching on the ground, looking up at the dark-haired guy. He closed his eyes and kept his soft but sadistic smile. "Well, well~, you still have some energy left~?" He raised both his hands up, creating lightning from the both of them. "How about this for punishment?!"
"He specializes in attacks using demonic powers," Richard continued. Akihiko then shocked the stray with the lightning, the monster screeching in pain. "On top of that, he's..."
He opened his now Yandere-like magenta-colored eyes and still kept his soft, sadistic smile. He rested his cheek on his hand. "Well, well~, you're still energetic~." He then licked his lips, chuckling once again.
"...a complete sadist."
"Let's see how long you can bear it!" the raven-haired guy shouted as he shocked the beast with another strong ray of lightning. He began laughing in a sadistic manner.
"He's...laughing..." Issei muttered, both awed and terrified at the sight. He seemed to be a nice guy, but when it came to battle, he had a completely different demeanor...
"Akihiko, that's enough," Richard said as a command. The lightning stopped, leaving the stray fried and static, but living.
"Done already?" he questioned as he turned with a soft smile and his eyes closed. "What a disappointment~!" He chuckled again, now making Issei more scared.
Richard walked toward the beast. When he stopped in front of him, he asked, "Any last words?"
"K-kill me..." the Visor muttered in a weakened voice.
The red-haired devil smirked. "Oh really? No name-calling? No useless death threats? I'm quite shocked. But now, you must vanish." He then spread his arms out, forming a magic circle. He then said with triumph, "Checkmate." Dark red energy came out of the circle and struck the stray. It screeched its last screech as it disappeared into thin air. Issei was in shock and awe of what happened. It almost felt like an episode of "Seduction Boys" in real life!
"We're done here," Richard announced before turning around with a smile on his face. "Let's go."
"Yes, President," said almost the entire peerage, walking towards an area for a magic circle.
"U-um, President," the female pervert spoke up, following behind him.
"Yes?"
"What am I considered then?" Issei pointed at herself. "What piece am I?"
"You're a pawn."
She looked perplexed. "Wait, a 'pawn'? You mean that...?"
He turned to her with a reassuring smile. "That's right. You're a foot soldier."
"A-a foot soldier?" She imagined herself with the other pawn pieces. The lowest rank of chess...? she thought, baffled. No way! WHY?!
Eye Catch #5: Kabu is laying on the checkered floor on his side with his knees and legs covering his chest, carrying a chess piece with his fingers. He looks neutral and he's wearing the entire Kuoh Academy males' uniform with shoes. His small underbulge is shown and his head is resting on his left arm.
