Chapter 22: A New World? Hotspring?

~Underworld~

"Sirzech, how are we going to find him? He could be anywhere." Ajuka asked walking side by side with Sirzech along the halls of his mansion.

"I know. But that's why we have to search for him. I don't know where those three Devils came from but we have to find out where Izayoi's whereabouts." Sirzech stated.

"Sirzech, are you really sure those three were Devils? Each of their descriptions were really normal to compare with a human being." Ajuka explained as Sirzech stopped, followed by Ajuka.

"You're right… But if they were not Devil, then who are they?" Sirzech questioned looking down with a thoughtful look.

"Anyway, this is the first time I heard when a child nulled both of you and Lord Gremory's powers. It is strangely hard to believe." Ajuka explained with a hand under his chin.

"But our first priority right now is to find Izayoi and his friend, Asuka. We can discuss about those three later." Sirzech said as Ajuka nodded and the two of them continued to walk along the halls, directly headed towards the meeting place where they can discuss with the other Devils.

"I hope Rias is okay…" Sirzech thought.

~Izayoi's Home~

Night

"Rias-sama, are you sure you don't want to have dinner? You'll be hungry by then." Shirayuki-Hime asked as she looked over at Rias, who was sitting on the couch, hugging her knees while having a sad look on her face.

"Yes. I'm sure. You don't have to cook anything for me right now, Shirayuki-Hime. Thank you for asking." Rias answered as Shirayuki-Hime wore a small frown, knowing that Rias acted this way was because of Izayoi's disappearance.

After she heard what happened from Rias herself, she was devastated that her Master had disappeared from being kidnapped by three powerful beings from what she heard from Rias. She was skeptical on the description when Akeno told her about their appearances. She knew she heard something similar in the past where it involves three powerful beings, and that consists of a girl, a woman and a man. But somehow, she didn't want to believe that for now because she was trying to comfort Rias, but after several comforting tries she had failed to do any one of them.

After she already heard about Izayoi's kidnap, she met up with Akeno, who told her all about the details yesterday about Rias. She was told that Rias was blaming herself for Izayoi, to which everyone knows that it wasn't her fault and they told her that the girl was beyond their powers to defeat. But Rias didn't care about it and instead she isolate herself inside the Occult Research Club. While she was doing that, Akeno told her that Rias received a message from Sirzech about giving her permission on releasing her other 'Bishop', which caught her interest on knowing.

Prior to that, Rias understood her brother's message and walked out of the clubroom to released her other 'Bishop', with everyone. She heard that the Bishop was a boy that was cross dressed as a girl, to which made her shook her head in utter frustration, not believing that anyone would cross dressed as a person that they shouldn't be. But she didn't question any further on the Bishop, instead she asked about Rias's condition from Akeno.

Her response was upsetting for her as she heard that after Rias released her Bishop, she immediately was called upon to a meeting to prepare for the meeting of the Three Factions. In the meeting, Akeno told her that Rias had spoken a little about the main subject of the meeting before she silenced herself from the meeting and kept quiet. From that behaviour, she could honestly say that Rias was still sad and upset about Izayoi's disappearance. The other members in the meeting knew about the kidnap and they didn't question about Izayoi with her, afraid that she would be more sad than she was at the time of the meeting.

When the meeting ended, Rias went home and ate a little of the dinner that Shirayuki-Hime left for her. After that, she quietly walked upstairs and closed the door to Izayoi's room. Shirayuki-Hime could hear some sniffling sounds inside, to which she knew that she was crying inside the room but she also knew that Rias was holding a lot of tears in. Because if she did released all the pent up sadness inside, she would certainly heard the crying sound clearly inside Izayoi's room that night. But she didn't, to which she was relieved that Rias was holding in the sadness instead of letting it out fully.

After that day, Shirayuki-Hime and a determined Rias searched for Izayoi along with Akeno. When the day became a little dark, she and Rias bid farewell to Akeno and the two of them went home. And so, this is the situation that they were in, with Rias upsetting over Izayoi on the couch.

Then, Shirayuki-Hime closed her eyes and breathed a deep breath. After a while, she opens her eyes and strode inside the living room. "Rias." Shirayuki-Hime said standing in front of her, startling Rias from the volume of her voice.

"I don't mean to interrupt your sad time. But Izayoi-sama wouldn't want to see you like this. He would want you to be yourself instead." Shirayuki-Hime said as Rias looked down. "Do you think Izayoi-sama would want to see you like this?" She asked with a cross of her arms.

"No…" Rias answered quietly as she gripped both of her legs tightly. "Why did this happen?" Rias asked in thought. "Why am I so weak? If I could have known about their arrival, I would..." Rias thought but she said the last words out loud, to which Shirayuki-Hime heard her and she clench her fist tightly.

"Rias-sama. Rias-sama!" Shirayuki-Hime shouted as Rias jerk back in surprise by her loud voice.

"What is it, Shirayuki-Hime?" Rias asked to Shirayuki-Hime, who sighed at her response.

"It is not your fault that Izayoi-sama got kidnapped. They suddenly appeared in the day time." Shirayuki-Hime explained as Rias looked at her with a small frown edged on the corner of lips.

"But I can still do something at that time. I can..." Rias said but no words escape from her mouth at the last part when she tried to find any way to try to help Izayoi at the time of his kidnap.

"See? There's no point on blaming yourself over it. We all know that the red haired girl could nullify your power. The same goes for Sirzech-sama and Lord Gremory." Shirayuki-Hime stated.

"I know. But I wished I could still do something. Anything. To prevent Izayoi-kun from being taken away. What a horrible wife I am..." Rias mutters sadly as Shirayuki-Hime put her right hand on Rias's left shoulder, which caused Rias to look at her.

"You're not a horrible wife, Rias-sama. Izayoi-sama wouldn't hate you if you can't do anything to help him at that time. Forget that, he wouldn't be mad at you for everything! Do you remember seeing him being mad at you before?" Shirayuki-Hime asked as Rias tried to recall anything about Izayoi being mad at her. But after a while of remembering, she couldn't remember Izayoi being mad except the one where Izayoi talked with Xenovia who mocked Asia about being a Devil and she would have to die to repent for her sins.

"No..." Rias answered as Shirayuki-Hime smiled a small smile.

"Then, why do you call yourself a horrible wife? Izayoi wouldn't want you to call yourself that if he's here with us. And he surely wouldn't let you sulked around here in the living room from his disappearance. He would made sure that you wouldn't give up and he would made sure that you will never be sad no matter where he is. Because he would do anything to return to you." Shirayuki-Hime explained with a smile as Rias looked down, thinking about her words.

Then, a smile appeared on Rias's face, "She is right. Izayoi-kun wouldn't want to see me like this... He is not that kind of guy to." Rias said in thought covering her mouth from giggling.

"What do you say, Rias-sama?" Shirayuki-Hime questioned leaning her head forward a little while she held a smile on her face, awaiting for the right answer from her mistress.

"You're right, Izayoi-kun wouldn't want to see me like this." Rias answered with a smile, looking straight into Shirayuki-Hime's eyes.

"Then?" Shirayuki-Hime asked with a small smile.

"I should eat dinner." Rias answered smiling up at her as Shirayuki-Hime nodded. "You know, Izayoi-kun has picked a wonderful Familiar to be with him. Thank you, Shirayuki-Hime." She thanked as Shirayuki-Hime wear a smirk.

"I'm his Familiar, after all. And I don't cry for him, unlike someone." Shirayuki-Hime teased as Rias wore a sly smile.

"Are you referring to me?" Rias asked as Shirayuki-Hime glanced sideways.

"I don't know what you're talking about." She stated with a playful smile as Rias stood up and faced Shirayuki-Hime.

"Thank you, Shirayuki-Hime. I'll be changing and then I'll eat dinner." Rias said with a smile as she walked pass her and walked upstairs to change.

Rias open the door to her and Izayoi's room and walked inside, closing the door after she came inside. Rias strip off her school uniform and went inside the bathroom to bath.

After a while, Rias came out of the bathroom and walked toward one of the wardrobe, opening it with a pull of her hand as she look inside for her night wear. She look to the furthest side of the wardrobe and pulled out her red nightgown. She closed the wardrobe and lay the nightgown on the bed. She straighten her hair before she remove her towel and wear her nightgown.

After she wore her nightgown, she walked towards Izayoi's work desk and spotted the picture frame of Izayoi and her mother. She smiled at the picture and look through the stuffs around the desk, seeing a stack of books at the left and right side of the desk.

"Hmm?" Rias spotted something shining below the desk as she crouched down and pulled on the box that contained the shiny items. "What's this?" Rias asked herself looking down at the several cover CD's in the box, poking out from the box.

She then picked one of the CD and open the cover, which revealed a CD, entitled, 'Good luck!'. Rias frowned at the CD as she didn't understand what the title means. "Maybe Shirayuki-Hime could help." Rias said as she closed CD cover and put it back inside the box. After that, she picked up the box and walked out of the room, heading downstairs to talk to Shirayuki-Hime.

Rias walked inside the living room, seeing Shirayuki-Hime sitting on the couch while she watch TV. "Shirayuki-Hime," Rias called out as Shirayuki-Hime turns her head to look at her.

"What is it, Rias-sama?" She asked as she then spotted the brown box in her hands, which caused her to hold a curious look.

"Do you know what this box is? It has several DVD's in it." Rias said as she put the brown box on the desk between the two couches.

"Hm... I never saw this before. Where did you find this?" Shirayuki-Hime asked.

"In Izayoi-kun's room. It was beneath his desk." Rias answered as Shirayuki-Hime pulled out one of the cover of the DVD. She opens the cover and pulled out the DVD from the cover.

"We should watch it." Shirayuki-Hime stated surprising Rias.

"But we don't know what those DVD's contained." Rias said with a frown, worried that she crossed the line on watching the DVD's without Izayoi's permission. She also was worried on the contents that are inside the DVD's. She doesn't know if she should watch it or not, but after reading one of the titles of the DVD's, she's gotten a little curious on what it means.

"Don't worry, Rias-sama. Izayoi-sama, won't mind." Shirayuki-Hime said with a reassuring smile, as she put the DVD, entitled, Mother's Love' into the DVD player that was set up beneath the TV.

Shirayuki-Hime then changed the channel of the TV to one of the channels that was specifically for DVD's only.

"Hello, Izayoi. This is your mother, Canaria." A blonde woman said with a smile appeared on the screen as Rias and Shirayuki-Hime stared at her.

Unknown World…

A bright light penetrated the orange sky as it forms into a portal and came out from it was Izayoi, who look down at the new world he was in.

"What the?" Izayoi exclaimed looking down at the city of some sort he was in, while falling form the sky with his arms and legs spread. "Where is this?" Izayoi asked himself as he landed on the roof of a building, making a small crater in the roof, but the people in the streets didn't heard it and they just continue on their walking.

Meanwhile at the other side of the city…

A bright light landed down at one of the alleyway, with no one around to pass by. When the light slowly dissipated, it reveals Asuka in a sitting position.

"Wha—Where is this? This is not Kuoh Academy." Asuka said to herself as she stood up from the ground and dusted herself from the dirt on her clothes.

"Where's Izayoi-kun?" Asuka asked looking around her to find any signs of Izayoi anywhere. But after a few minutes, she didn't see him which caused her to walk out of the alleyway to discover the new world she was in now.

"Wow." Asuka exclaimed as she stared in awe at the numerous people passing by the street. But then she look closely at the people, noticing that some people weren't people at all. Some had horns on their foreheads and some had strange features like monsters. But they didn't attack anyone on the street which highly confused her, but she kept her thoughts about herself, not wanting to attract attention of everyone in the street.

"Since I don't know how to get back, I might as well explore this world for now." Asuka said to herself as she walked along the street, while looking at the variety of people walking in the same street as her. "This world is really different from the other world." Asuka stated as she walked on the street while she bought one piece of crepe from a food stand for her to eat.

Asuka took a bite of the crepe as a smile spreads across her face, "This is sweet!" Asuka said loving the sweet taste of the crepe. "I never thought this world had this kind of food." She said as she took another bite of the crepe while she continued walking aimlessly.

Then, something caught her eye as she look at her right, seeing a small yellow fairy standing amongst some glasses in a stand. Asuka moved her head closer to look at the fairy, initially looking at the fairy behind her back.

Then, the fairy turns around, spotting Asuka as she scream and jumps away. Asuka then threw her crepe on one of the people passing by, "You can have that." Asuka said to the girl as she chased after the fairy.

On top of a roof somewhere...

"Where is this?" Izayoi asked as he looked upon the world he was in. "Damn, those three were really setting this whole thing up!" He said annoyed as he sit on the roof, watching the people passing by the streets they were in.

"Anyway, where's Ojou-sama?" Izayoi asked as he tried to search for her amongst the people, but after a while he couldn't find her anywhere.

"Ah… What am I going to do now?" He asked himself as he lay his back against the roof, looking up at the orange sky.

"Boring… Where's all the fun around here?" Izayoi asked with an annoyed voice as he continued to lay boringly on the roof, without anyone noticing him since he was up on the roof, preventing them to see him. Instead, the people of the city continued to walk along the streets of their city, without knowing what will happen soon.

~Streets~

"Thank you." The shop attendant said as Asuka walked away from the shop, with a bun in her hands. Meanwhile, on top of her shoulder sat an exhausted yellow fairy, laying on top of Asuka's shoulder

"I wasn't trying to hurt you. I just wanted someone to accompany me on my journeys." Asuka said as she take a small piece of the bun and showed it in front of the fairy. "Here you go. Proof of my friendship." She said to the fairy.

"Sniff, sniff, sniff." The fairy sniffed as her eyes suddenly had stars in them and she grabbed the small piece of bread in her hands. "Nom, nom." The fairy eats the bread while her sounds of eating could be heard.

After, the fairy ate the bread, she climbed onto Asuka's head as she runs around her head, which caused Asuka to smile. Asuka cupped the fiary with both of her hands as she brought her down in front of her.

"How about we introduce ourselves now that we've become friends? My name is Kudou Asuka. Can you say that?" Asuka asked tilting her head slightly to the side.

"Asuka?" The fairy said.

"You stretched that out a little bit too much." Asuka said with a finger in front of her.

"Asuka! Asuka! Asuka!" The fairy said as Asuka smiled, putting down her finger.

"Thank you. What's your name?" Asuka asked.

"Rattenfanger!" The fairy introduced.

"Hm? Is that your name?" Asuka asked.

"Comu!" The fairy said.

"You mean that's the name of your… community? So what's your name, then?" Asuka asked.

"Hmm… Rattenfanger!" The fairy said as Asuka held a troubled look but she settled it with a smile.

"Oh well. I've come this far already. How about we go take a look at the exhibits? I heard they have it in here." Asuka said recalling some people taking about looking at the exhibits, while the fairy hop onto her shoulder and Asuka walked along towards the exhibits of the city, which she heard had a long line of people to go inside.

"Hmm…?" Izayoi squint his eyes as he spotted Asuka walking towards a cave, which had a lot of people at the entry of the cave.

"Wow, there are a lot of people here. I wonder what they're looking at?" Asuka asked herself as she walked through the cave while people look at the artifacts that were inside the display inside the walls along the tunnels.

"This is pretty amazing." Asuka commented looking a beautiful silver candle that had six holders candles. She then look down at the words inscribed about the artefact.

"Created by the Will-O-Wisp Community." Asuka said herself as she look up, spotting a symbol in the middle of the candle.

"The pieces are placed differently…" Asuka thought as she look back seeing different symbols placed on each different artifacts throughout the cave.

Then, Asuka walked further inside the tunnel and her eyes look up, "Who build this?" Asuka asked herself seeing a big metal being in front of her. She then spotted a description about the metal being as she read the community who built the metal construction.

"Created by the Rattenfanger Community. Title: Dean." Asuka said as she look up at the huge being.

"Dean… The Rattenfanger Community is amazing." Asuka said but suddenly wind blew in her direction, causing Asuka to held up her hand to defend herself from the force of the wind, while instantaneously the lamps that brighten the tunnels, faded out of existence, darkening the tunnel.

"I've found you. I've found you…" A voice called out, echoing through the tunnels as Asuka and everyone in the area listened to the voice.

"Coward, show yourself!" Asuka demanded as she look at the left side of Dean.

"I've found you… That which dares to lie about the name Rattenfanger!"The voice said as red eyes appeared in the dark.

"Rats?!" Asuka exclaimed in surprise as the rats run towards her and everyone in the tunnel.

"How can there be that many?" Asuka asked herself disgusted by the quantity of the rats.

"Return to your nest!" Asuka demanded as her eyes turn red for a second, knowing that her power could control anything but the rats didn't response to her order and continued on running towards her.

~City~

"Where is this place exactly?" Izayoi asked himself perching up on a tall roof, looking out over the surrounding place he was suddenly in.

"Strange…" Izayoi exclaimed looking down at the people walking through the streets of the area he was in.

Then, he felt something was wrong and his eyes spotted the cave that Asuka entered not a while ago. He narrowed his eyes before he completely vanish out of sight.

~Cave~

"Be still! Return to your nest!" Asuka ordered the rats but still the rats didn't have any effect from her power.

"Why won't my gift work?" Asuka asked as she pulled out a card from her school uniform and she held it in front of her, causing a sword to appear out of nowhere. She then hold it in her other hand as she slays rats left and right.

She turn on her heels as she run from the rats, and she held the card in front of her, seeing the symbol of her gift light up in red.

"This is strange. My gift of Authority hasn't faded, but…" Asuka said as she look back, seeing a rat jump towards her as she turns around and slash the rat, causing it to few backwards after being slashed. Asuka then continues on running from the rats that were chasing her non-stop.

"Wait… Are they after her?" Asuka asked as she looked down at Rattenfanger who was holding onto her neck.

"In that case!" Asuka said as she put Rattenfanger inside her dress, which was between her breasts.

"Hold on tightly! Don't fall out!" Asuka stated at the tiny fairy as the rats bit into her skirt.

"At this rate…" Asuka thought.

"Ojou-sama stand aside!" Izayoi said as he appeared beside Asuka, while all the rats immediately jumped towards Izayoi, who pulled back his right fist and punched the rats, which caused them to be destroyed into oblivion.

"Are you hurt, ojou-sama?" Izayoi asked as Asuka look at him.

"No. But how did you find me, Izayoi-kun?" Asuka asked in curiosity as Izayoi pointed his thumb behind him.

"It was pretty easy. I find you walking in this underground muzium." Izayoi said with a grin as Asuka shook her head in amusement.

"Thank you for saving me. Those rats suddenly appeared out of nowhere." Asuka explained as Izayoi touch the back of his head and looks around the dark cave.

"There must be someone controlling those rats." Izayoi concluded as he looked in front of him.

"Show yourself." Izayoi stated as Asuka look in front of her. "You must know the consequences of attacking ojou-sama in this place." Izayoi said with a smirk as Asuka look at him.

"Excuse me?" Asuka asked as Izayoi look at her.

"I can't let anyone hurt you, can I? This place gives me a bad vibe, you know." Izayoi explained as Asuka smiled at his concern.

"Well, thank you for your concern, Izayoi-kun. But we should worry about our situation right now." Asuka said as Izayoi look in front of him.

"Worry? Why should we? He or she isn't attacking us right now." Izayoi exclaimed as he waited for any signs of the spell caster, but after a while there wasn't any move or rats that came to attack them.

"Since we've arrived here, why don't we enjoy in this place instead?" Izayoi suggested as he turns around to look at Asuka, who held a confused look.

"But what about those three people? They led us here for a reason and to this particular place. Shouldn't we investigate it first? I mean we can't find ourselves to go back the way where we came from anyway." Asuka said as Izayoi smirk.

"Do you see them now?" Izayoi asked as Asuka look around the cave and then at Izayoi.

"No…" Asuka answered.

"Do you know why they sent us here in the first place?" Izayoi asked as Asuka look down.

"No…" Asuka answered with the same answer.

"So, we should enjoy while we still can." Izayoi said with a smile as he held out his hand at Asuka, who look at it before she looked at him.

"It'll be fun." Izayoi assured her as a smile appears on the corner of Asuka's lips.

"Okay, Izayoi-kun. You win." Asuka said as she took his hand with her right hand.

"Then, we should go to the hotspring." Izayoi explained as Asuka look at him confusion.

"Hotspring? There's a hotspring here?" Asuka asked as Izayo nodded.

"Yeah. I found it when I found myself on a roof after we've been teleported to this place." Izayoi exclaimed as Asuka smile in amusement.

"Poor Izayoi-kun…" Asuka said as Izayoi smirk at her in return.

"Yeah, poor me. Anyway, we should get going." Izayoi said as he led the two of them out of the cave and straight headed towards the hotspring he found in the city.

~Thousand Eyes Hotspring~

"What?!" Asuka exclaimed with a shock look, looking at the smiling clerk in front of her. "We have to share the hotspring?!" She asked to the clerk, who nodded at her.

"Yes. We have some slight problem with the water in the boy's part of the hotspring. So, I have to suggest you two to share. I'm sorry if this is inconvenient for you two. But you two look like a cute couple, so I'm sure you wouldn't mind sharing the same hotspring with your boyfriend, Miss." The clerk said with a sincere smile as Asuka look at her with a blush.

"H-He's not my boyfriend—" Asuka was cut off by Izayoi.

"We'll take it." Izayoi answered with a smile to the clerk, who smiled at him.

"How wonderful! Don't worry, we have a special service for you two since you two have to share." The clerk said as Izayoi nodded.

"Okay. Thanks." Izayoi thanked her before the clerk bowed her head and left the two, standing in the counter.

"What is that, Izayoi-kun?!" Asuka asked with wide eyes turning her head to look at Izayoi.

"What?" Izayoi asked looking at her with an amused smile.

"We can't share!" Asuka exclaimed with wide eyes as Izayoi smiled at her, before the clerk from before put down their robes on the desk.

"It's only one night. Anyway, we never know if those three would come tomorrow. So, we should enjoy it now." Izayoi explained as he picked up both him and Asuka's robes with his left hand. He then wrapped his right arm around Asuka's shoulder.

"Hey, what are you-" Asuka was cut off as Izayoi pushed her towards the hotspring with his right arm.

"Have fun, you two." The clerk said with a smile, while she waved at them.

~Hotspring~

"This is relaxing…" Izayoi said as he sigh in bliss while sitting in the water with a towel on his head. Izayoi look at the entrance of the hotspring, seeing a silhouette over the slide door.

"You can come in, ojou-sama. There's nothing to be embarrass about. I'll close my eyes if it helps you go inside the water." Izayoi said over in the water.

"Close your eyes!" Asuka yelled as Izayoi shook his head before he closed his eyes without using his arms to cover it.

"I close it! You can come in now!" Izayoi exclaimed as Asuka grabbed tightly at her towel that covered her body.

Asuka slowly slides the door open as she step inside the hotspring. She looked at Izayoi, who has his eyes closed just like he said he would, which made her slightly happy that he was loyal and true to his words. She then hurriedly entered the water while holding onto her towel tightly, not wanting it to slide off her body and let Izayoi get a full look of her body, which would completely embarrass her for her whole life.

"Are you inside the water?" Izayoi asked leaning his head up towards the sky while Asuka look at him.

"Yes. I'm inside." Asuka informed him as Izayoi opens his eyes and look at Asuka.

"What a sight…" Izayoi trailed off as he looked at the towel-covered Asuka.

"W-What are you looking at?" Asuka asked as she slowly covers her chest with her right arm.

"You." Izayoi simply answered which caused Asuka to blush.

"Can you not?" Asuka asked looking down, hiding her full blown blush.

"How can I?" Izayoi asked looking at her shoulders that was exposed.

"Because it's rude to stare at people when they're completely naked with just a towel hiding their bodies." Asuka explained as Izayoi laughs.

"But I'm not as nice as people say." Izayoi reasoned as Asuka glare at him.

"And I'm completely surprised by the appearance of your body, ojou-sama. I never thought you had such curves that fit perfectly with your body. And your shoulders that are glisten with the water making you more resistible. And your hair that is flowing with the water makes the sight of you even better. In the whole picture of you, you're really are beautiful." Izayoi said with a smile as Asuka blushed crimson by his compliment. When Izayoi explained about her body, she was prepared to throw a bucket near her towards him, but when he said the last part, she completely forget all about the bucket.

"I never know you had such a tongue, Izayoi-kun. T-Thank you, for your compliment."Asuka said looking down, while she glanced at Izayoi, who pulled his head back towards the night sky.

"No problem. I can't deny to explained the details of your curvaceous body. And this hotspring gave me that chance to explain." Izayoi said with a grin, while Asuka smiled a small smile at him.

Asuka then swam towards the wall on her left as she leaned her back against it.

"I wouldn't expect a hotspring in the city. But I was just wounded and there's no sign of that after simply bathing here." Asuka said as she scrubs her right arm with soup. Asuka look towards Izayoi, who had a towel over his eyes while his arms were at the back of his head. Asuka look downwards at his body and her eyes widen, spotting the outline of a six pack abs in the water. She blushed as she looked the other way, regaining her composure.

"Why did I look at it in the first place?" Asuka thought as she shook her head out of her stupor from seeing Izayoi's abs.

"Ugh…" Asuka said as she shook her head from the image of Izayoi's abs in her head. She never knew that Izayoi exercised before, but that would be because she only met him once, when they accidentally bumped into each other while walking in the streets. And after she entered Kuoh Academy, which she noticed Izayoi entered it in the first place, according to the uniform he wore during their interval, she could honestly say she wanted to meet him while she was there. But after searching during recess, she couldn't find him anywhere, which baffled her. During the recess, she could hear Izayoi's name from other female students along the hallways, saying that Izayoi was the most handsome guy in the school aside from Kiba, she heard. She was confused by the students who knew him, and the fact that she couldn't find him anywhere adds to the problem of his whereabouts that time. After she went home after school, she was thinking about Kuoh Academy, knowing that something strange was with the Academy. She could sense several strong presences near the main school, but she wasn't going to take the chance of meeting them, completely knowing that she will be outnumbered. And so, when the 2nd day of school has ended, she hid on a corner, when she saw Izayoi and a crimson red haired woman past her.

She was about to go and left the school for her house, but she heard someone's voice over at the same spot where Izayoi and Rias stood. She heard the conversation and she was shocked to hear that the person was trying to kill Izayoi in time. She walked out from her hiding place and questioned the said person, wanting to know the identity of the individual, so that she could warn Izayoi about the conversation she heard from the person. As she was going to leave the hallways, she sensed a presence behind her, and she looked behind. She was surprised to see the new teacher that everyone was talking about in her class before recess and after recess. The transfer teacher suddenly pulled out a card from his pocket and she was suddenly teleported to a coliseum. But by the time she realized it, she heard a scream from behind her and she suddenly felt the world went black.

Suddenly, she woke up from her long sleep and she noted that she was in Izayoi's arms, which confused and shocked her at the same time, wanting to know what happen to her, why she felt tired, why she felt like she had woke from a long sleep that she never took, and why did Izayoi carried her? All those questions were in her head, and Izayoi had answered one of them. But after hearing that she was petrified to stone for a week, she let those other questions go away, knowing that they had been answered by that one simple answer.

After meeting with the Occult Research Club in their clubroom, she was ordered to stay in the room after they were finished dealing with Kokabiel and a fused Excalibur from Izayoi. When she watched the battle through the window, she was surprised to see Izayoi wielding a sword of some sort but she knew that it was a powerful sword. She then watched on the battle, as Izayoi unleashes a variety of skills that she couldn't believe that he had when he wielded the sword in question. After seeing that Kokabiel survived throughout the onslaught of Izayoi's attacks, she watches as Izayoi's appearance changed; his hair was slightly longer to the point some strands of his hair had covered his left eye completely, leaving only his right eye to see. She stood in front of the window and watched Izayoi reap the four remaining black wings from Kokabiel's back with his last attack, which left her shocked beyond words.

When the battle was over, Asuka decided to lie down for a while but just as she was about to turn around, she glanced from the corner of her eyes, seeing a bright light coming down from the broken barrier. She then looked at the bright light that slowly dissipated, revealing a white armored humanoid in its place. She looked at the being, who was about to take Kokabiel but he was interrupted by Izayoi, who punched his stomach, which caused cracks to appear over the armor. After a while of watching, the white being left, taking both Kokabiel and the priest with him. Asuka decided to meet up with Izayoi before she left. And when Izayoi left after talking to her, she was baffled by the word Devil who Izayoi reffered to Rias. After a while of thinking, she had finally pieced the puzzle together and she decided to believe in Izayoi's words about Rias being a Devil herself, but she didn't want to question Rias on the topic, and so, she kept it to herself.

After the previous event of the battle, she walked through the hallways of the school to head towards her class, she stopped to look at the crowd of students that was piling beside a Third Year class. She decided to catch a glimpse inside the classroom and she was surprised to see Izayoi teaching the class himself even though he was a student. But nevertheless, she thought that he was doing a favor for a teacher of his and she continued to head towards her class after

When she walked out of her class for her recess, she saw Izayoi, Rias and Akeno walking towards the gym. Suddenly, she looked at the group of boys that instantly rushed outside the gym while taking their cameras and phones in their arms. She then looked at the door of the gym and saw a phone being launched from Izayoi towards one of the boys that was running behind the group of boys. She smiled in satisfaction as the group of boys flew across the hall and crashed into something hard, judging by the sound she heard from all over the hall.

But then, she sensed three powerful presences near the school and she looked at the direction of the gym, where Izayoi and the others were. She then rushed towards the gym, wanting to warn Izayoi before it's too late. When she got inside the hall, she instantly saw a black haired man charging towards Izayoi from behind, to which she shouted Izayoi's name to warn him of the attack. When her shout reaches Izayoi, who turns around and instantly pulling back his fist towards the black haired man, he instantly disappeared in a bright light which halted the fight with Kokabiel.

After shockingly seeing Izayoi disappeared, she immediately rushed inside the gym and runs towards where Izayoi had disappeared to, but she too was suddenly confronted a blonde haired woman, who was in front of her and she showed her a piece of card, which engulfed her in a bright light. Then, she woke up to find herself not from the world she came from but a different world where she could see people, that were different from where she look in the streets. Horns, sharp teeths and all kinds of inhuman traits that were different from human standard, but she was surprise to see that the people in the city were nice and a shopkeeper gave her a creap to eat, which she enjoys.

After walking on the streets for a while, she was met by Rattenfanger, a little fairy that was standing on top of a desk that features several toys, that would be played by children and kids alike. After picking her up, from running after her, she shared her food with her, and the two of them instantly became friends and Asuka decided to go to a cave to discover the artifacts she heard from one of the people in the city. When she went inside, she was amazed by the different displays inside the cave, from different communities. So, when she look up at Dean, that was built from the Rattenfanger Community, she was astounded. But when the rats suddenly attacked her from nowhere, she was suddenly met with Izayoi's voice, telling her to stand aside, which she complied by standing beside Izayoi, who killed the rats with just a single punch.

After the assault of the rats had been dealt with, Izayoi suggested they should have fun while they can, which confuses her since those three people were the cause of all this and they should be aware of their surroundings and investigate about the three individuals than enjoy the rest of the day, not knowing when or where the three of them would strike. But Izayoi assured her that it would be fine, which she believed because of the confident he held in his words and she believed that without her help, Izayoi could handle those three by himself.

So, she took his words and took his hand, to which Izayoi suggested that they should go to a hotspring located near the city. She agreed to go because she knew that she needed some relaxation from being stone for a week and being assault from rats had been draining her energy all day. She still hasn't fully recovered her energy from being stone for a week and she suddenly was assaulted by rats in an unknown world she had teleported to, where she and Izayoi didn't know how to go back.

But after arriving in the hotspring and hearing the news that she had to share the hotspring with Izayoi had made the situation even worse, as she didn't expect such an embarrassing event to happen to her. When she wanted to protest in sharing the hotspring, Izayoi had to agree with the clerk to share the hotspring, which made her blush. When she was about to protest the second time to the clerk, she didn't get a chance to utter a single word because Izayoi had already dragged her inside the hotspring to get ready. And now, she was in the hotspring's water, fully recovered by the water and was sharing it with Izayoi, who was relaxing in front of her.

She didn't expect him to be quite a charming person as she was surprised when he called her beautiful and that made her embarrassed, which resulted on her blushing state earlier. She didn't know that she was beautiful from Izayoi, and she didn't know why she felt kind of special for a moment when he had called her beautiful. And lastly, she didn't know why she suddenly felt warm inside when he compliment on how beautiful she is, even though his words were slightly perverted by her own standards, but she was entirely confused by the warm feeling, why?

"Ojou-sama?" Izayoi called out as he took of the towel from his eyes and look at Asuka, who was staring at the water.

"Ojou-sama?" Izayoi called out again, startling Asuka.

"Huh? What?" Asuka asked as she look at Izayoi.

"You're spacing out. What are you thinking?" Izayoi asked as Asuka realized that she had been spacing out on her own thoughts about the whole event that was happening to her right now.

"Sorry. I was thinking about the event that is happening to us right now." Asuka answered as Izayoi raised his eyebrow at her.

"Why are you thinking about that right now? You should enjoy the day at the hotspring." Izayoi said as Asuka held a smile.

"It hasn't been a day since I got out from being turned to stone and suddenly, I have to deal with rats in a world that I don't know? To me, that had been a rough situation to be into." Asuka explained looking down as Izayoi smiled, knowing what would get her to lighten up from her tiredness.

"Ojou-sama." Izayoi called out as Asuka look up at him as she was suddenly assaulted with water on her face.

"You should try to lighten up." Izayoi said as Asuka look at him, and she suddenly held a smirk.

"And you should learn how to have manners some time, Izayoi-kun!" Asuka said as she splash water towards Izayoi, hitting him on the face, drenching his hair wet.

"Ah… So, the inner Ojou-sama has come out, huh?" Izayoi asked as he swept his hair back and he countered Asuka's attack with another splash of water on her face, but she had already raised her arms to block the water from hitting her face.

"Inner?" Asuka asked as she look at Izayoi.

"You've been feeling boring, right?" Izayoi asked.

"You should lighten up and have fun!" Izayoi exclaimed with a smirk as he swam towards her, causing Asuka to look at him with wide eyes as she slowly back away, but she realized that she was cornered to the wall.

"It looks like ojou-sama will not be escaping from this." Izayoi exclaimed as he stood in front of the wide eyed Asuka.

"What are you going to do, Izayoi-kun?" Asuka asked with a blush at the close contact as Izayoi slowly leans his head down onto Asuka's head, which caused her to put her hands on Izayoi's chest, pushing him away from whatever he was going to do to her.

"W-What are you doing, Izayoi—" Asuka was cut off as she felt Izayoi sniffed her hair.

"You have a nice smell, ojou-sama." Izayoi said as Asuka blushed from his words.

"You are a pervert, aren't you, Izayoi-kun?" Asuka asked with her face flushed as she tried to push him away with her hands on his chest.

"I took a pleasure of thinking perverted thoughts if that would make you feel better." Izayoi exclaimed as he pulled away from Asuka.

"Really? I think that would make me worse just knowing that." Asuka said looking at him with a light glare, while a blush adorned her cheeks from their earlier contact.

"Hahaha!" Izayoi laughed as Asuka shook her head at him, but then she joins in on the laugh, laughing with her hand over her mouth.

"Now that's a happy smile on your face. Isn't this fun?" Izayoi exclaimed as he stopped his laugh and look at Asuka, who had a smile on her face.

"You're right. This is kind of fun." Asuka said with a smile as she look at him.

"Thank you for this, Izayoi-kun. I never felt this much fun before. I always got bored of commanding people with my Gift." Asuka said as Izayoi look at her interestingly.

"The name of your Gift suits yours perfectly, ojou-sama." Izayoi said as Asuka stifle a laugh.

"Yeah, it does apparently." Asuka replied back.

"But I've been wondering about something since you fought with Perseus. Your power... What's it called?" Asuka asked Izayoi look up at the sky, that was filled with stars.

"I don't know. But if my Gift were to be given a name, it would be Last Future of Embryo." Izayoi said as Asuka look at him in confusion.

"Last Future of Embryo? Why?" Asuka questioned as Izayoi smiled.

"My mother called it that. I don't know why she picked a long name." Izayoi explained as Asuka held a small smile on her face.

"But it's better to have a name than nothing, right?" Asuka asked as Izayoi looked at her and let out a small smile.

"Yeah. It's better than nothing." Izayoi stated as Asuka nodded. Izayoi then stood up as he walked out from the water, "I think you deserved your privacy, Ojou-sama. I'll see you later at our room." Izayoi said as Asuka stood up from the water.

"I think it's better if we get out together. I prefer company than being alone." Asuka said as Izayoi raised an eyebrow and a small smirk appear on his face.

"Really? I never thought Ojou-sama would say something like that. So, If I stay here, will you stay?" Izayoi asked with an amused smile as Asuka blushed in embarrassment, knowing what he meant.

"N-Not like that. I think we should go." Asuka said as she get out from the hotspring, leaving Izayoi with a smirk on his face.

"Who would have thought?" Izayoi asked himself as he looked up at the stars, twinkling in the night. "Huh…" Izayoi looked forward and he then walked out from the hotspring and into the changing room.

"Izayoi-kun!" Asuka said as a slapping noise resounded in the changing room.

~Hallway~

"You know that we shared the hotspring, right?" Asuka asked as Izayoi rubbed his arm that had a red hand mark on it.

"Yeah. Can't we share the changing room too?" Izayoi asked with a playful smile as Asuka glare at him. "Hahaha! Okay, I got it." He laughed as Asuka looked at the other way, trying to hide her small blush.

"Baka…" Asuka muttered as she and Izayoi walked inside their room, that was reserved for them by the clerk from before.

"Are all the rooms like this?" Izayoi asked with an impressive smirk as he look around the room, seeing that it was slightly larger than he thought it would be.

"Apparently so." Asuka answered looking around the room.

Then, a knock could be heard from the sliding door as Izayoi and Asuka looked at the door. The door then slides to the side, revealing the clerk from before.

"I'm sorry to intrude but how is your room? Is it comfortable for your liking?" The clerk asked with a bow as Asuka smiled at her.

"Yes, it is. But are all the rooms the same as this one?" She asked as the clerk looked at her.

"No, there's a few rooms that are the same as this one that you two are in." She stated.

"Why did you give us such a room? I mean, we don't have any money to pay for the hotspring and our room." Asuka said without realizing the words that came out of ber mouth. "Oh, I mean—" Asuka said with wide eyes, finally realizing the words she had said.

"Don't worry, Ma'am. We paid for your stay already, including the hotspring and the room." The clerk explained.

"Why? It's rude of us to take advantage for your hospitality." Asuka said with a small frown as the clerk waved her hand in dismissal.

"It's not a problem, Ma'am. This is our gift for you two." The clerk said as Izayoi smiled and he wrapped an arm around Asuka.

"Thanks. We appreciate your gift." Izayoi said as the clerk bowed her head in appreciation.

"You're welcome, Sir. Anyway, today our town is holding a festival to visitors and townspeople. You should go see it. It will be fun." She said as Izayoi wore an interested smile.

"Really? Okay, we'll go to the festival." Izayoi stated as Asuka looked at him.

"Alright. Then, I'll be taking my leave." The clerk said as she walked out of the room and bowed her head to Izayoi and Asuka before she slides the door closed.

"I think we should go to the festival." Izayoi said with a smirk as Asuka looked at him and smile.

"Since we can't find a way to go back, we might as well enjoy the remaining time here, right?" Asuka asked as Izayoi grabbed the ends of his rope, that was tied around his blue robe.

"W-What are you doing, Izayoi-kun?" Asuka asked as Izayoi looked at her.

"Changing. What's the problem?" He asked as Asuka glared at him.

"You should change somewhere else!" Asuka yelled as Izayoi laughed.

"Sorry. Got it, Ojou-sama." Izayoi replied with a smile before he left the room and walked inside the changing room from before to change.

"Sheesh, what's wrong with him?" Asuka asked herself with a shook of her head. Then a smile played on her face. "At least it's funny." She said before she changed into her red dress to go to the festival.

Meanwhile in the other world...

"So, that's Izayoi-kun's mother..." Rias trailed off as the last recording of Canaria had ended.

"Yes. The fifteenth one." Shirayuki-Hime said looking down at the CD's that were in the box. She pulled out the last CD out of the CD player and put it inside the DVD cover, before she put inside the box.

"Okaa-sama would have loved to meet her if she was still alive..." Rias said with a small sad smile, recalling the last recoding which showed Canaria last day in the hospital. Even though she knew that she was going to die, she still kept the wide smile of hers on her face, to which made Rias shed tears from watching the scene.

"Also, to the one that loves my son. I hope you take care of him for me after I die. He is a sharp-tongued of a son of mine. But he's a good son nonetheless. He needs to find a nice wife though. But if he gets into trouble, which I doubt that he would always do, you should wait for him to solve it by himself. In this world, there are many challenges that would get in our way. And if Izayoi is challenging one of those challenges, you'll just have to hope for the best and support him all you can for him. Because I know him. I'm his mother. And I know that son of mine would solve the piece of puzzle and fit it in perfectly to make the jigsaw complete."

"Cough, cough! Hm... Sorry. Anyway, I don't think my son would attract just one girl. To me, he'll definitely attract many beautiful girls. And make many babies, so that I can be a happy grandmother. What mother wouldn't want that? Haha... Lastly, always be by his side. Even if he goes off to fight the challenge at hand, you'll just have to put your faith into him wherever he is and wait for him with the hope that he will return. Cough! Anyway, I think that's all for me and I think I wrapped up the footage really well, if I do say so myself. Oh! I almost forgot. The girls who love Izayoi, be strong, ne?"

"Izayoi-sama has such a great mother." Shirayuki-Hime commented as she picked up the box and put it on the desk between the couches.

"Yes, he is." Rias replied as her eyes held determination. "But one thing is for sure, Canaria is right. We have to be strong no matter what Izayoi is facing right now. The only thing we can do is wait for him just like she said." She said as Shirayuki-Hime smiled at her mistress.

"Yes, that's right. Izayoi-sama will definitely solve the challenge." She said as Rias smiled and nodded at her.

"Anyway, we should continue searching for Izayoi. It hasn't been two weeks yet like he disappeared before. It's merely been a day. So, we should continue our search, Shirayuki-Hime." Rias said with determined eyes as she stood up from the floor, followed by Shirayuki-Hime, who nodded at her.

"Yeah, Rias-sama." She replied as Rias smiled and she turns around, preparing to search for Izayoi with Shirayuki-Hime. But before she could take another step, a white magic circle appear before her and the image of Akeno appear above the magic circle.

"Buchou, come to the school immediately." Akeno said as Rias look alarmed at her.

"Okay, we'll be there." Rias replied before Akeno nodded and her image disappeared along with the white magic circle.

Rias turns to Shirayuki-Hime, "Let's go." Rias said as Shirayuki-Hime nodded. The two then quickly run out of the house and headed towards Kuoh Academy.

After a while, the two arrived at the academy's gate, to which they could see Akeno waiting for them by the gate.

"What happen?" Rias asked standing in front of Akeno.

"You should come inside the school, Rias." Sona said appearing behind Akeno and Xenovia as the four girls look at her.

"Unfortunately, since this is apparently related to Izayoi abduction. My sister came along..." Sona trailed off as Serafall suddenly step out from the gate beside her.

"Hello!" Serafall greeted with a smile.

"Hello to you too, Serafall-sama. Anyway," Rias said as she focuses on Sona. "What happen to the school? And why does it relate to Izayoi-kun?" She said as Sona turns around.

"Look for yourself." Sona said as Rias raised her eyebrow at her, confusion written on her face. "At the top of the school." She added as Rias and the rest of the girls look up at the school. They looked at it for a while, but they couldn't see anything that looks out of the ordinary.

"Are you sure? I don't see anything." Akeno asked.

"Rias." A voice called out as Rias looked back at the owner's voice.

~City~

Evening

"Wow!" Asuka said with wide eyes while a smile appeared on her face, seeing a lot of games and food stands all around the city. Then, she saw that the street was crowded and was filled with lots of different species of people that she saw from the moment she teleported in this world. She also saw that the building and structures of the street she was in, was decorated with lots of decorations that practically lit the whole street with light. And she noted that the other streets would also be decorated with the same decorations as the ones she sees now.

"Do you want to begin your first game?" Izayoi asked with a smile, pointing his finger at a certain shooting stand.

"Yes!" Asuka answered with a nod as she started her way towards the shooting stand, leaving Izayoi to look at her.

But before she take another step, "You should play also, Izayoi-kun." Asuka said with a smile taking one of Izayoi's hands as she lead him towards the shooting stand.

"Okay. But I'm afraid that I'll win this one against you, Ojou-sama." Izayoi said with a smirk grabbing a deck of cards as his weapon of shooting while Asuka grabbed a bunch pf darts in her right hand.

"We shall see on who is the best at this, Izayoi-kun." Asuka replied with a challenging smirk to which Izayoi return with his own smirk.

"Ready? One, two, three!"

~Time Skip~

"I never know you were so good at all of the games, Izayoi-kun…" Asuka said with a small frown as she look at Izayoi, who was carrying a lot of stuff toys, such as a stuffed bear, fish, panda, dragon, dog and cat.

"I played a lot of games in the past. So, how's it feels to lose a couple of times on games, Ojou-sama?" Izayoi asked with an amused smile as Asuka lightly glared at her.

"Couple? You mean fifty, right?" Asuka asked as Izayoi smiled at her.

"Really? I've lost count." He replied as Asuka look at the stuffed toys.

"Anyway, what are you going to do with those toys?" Asuka asked in curiosity as Izayoi look at his prizes for winning all of the games so far. He then looked up, seeing a lot of kids walking with their parents through the rows of the game stands.

"Easy." Izayoi answered as he walked towards the kids, that were eyed wide at the toys that Izayoi held in his arms. "Do you want them? You can have it. I don't play with these anymore." Izayoi said with a smile as he crouched down at the children's height.

"Really, mister?" One of the kids asked as Izayoi nodded.

"Yeah. You can have them each. Go ahead. I won't bite." Izayoi said smiling at them as the kids held happy smiles. They looked up towards their parents to which they smiled and gestured them to take the stuffed toys, much to their happiness.

After a while, Izayoi stood up and looked at the group of children, hugging their stuffed toys in their arms while they walked away with their smiling parents.

"I thought you weren't nice." Asuka stated with a smile walking up to stand next to Izayoi.

"But it's a waste if I keep those toys to myself, right? I mean, I don't play with them. So, it's better to let someone play with it than let those toys filled up my room." Izayoi reasoned as Asuka stifle a laugh.

"Yeah. It'll be annoying if you let those toys filled up your room." She said as Izayoi smiled an amused smile at her.

"I know. But it's a shame that you didn't won anything, Ojou-sama. Isn't that annoying to you?" Izayoi asked as Asuka glared at him.

"And whose fault is that?" Asuka asked in mock anger as Izayoi looked up at the sky, his eyes narrowed, seeing something floating down from the sky. "Izayoi-kun?"

"What's that?" He asked as Asuka looked up at the sky and her eyes spotted a large amount of black game sheets falling down from the sky.

Izayoi take one of the black Geass Rolls as he looked at the contents written on the sheet.

"The players are all the communities in this area. The host appointed will be the Black Death." Izayoi said as Asuka continued for him.

"For the host master to win, all players must be pushed to submission or massacred. For the players to win, they must shatter the false legend, and make the true legend known." Asuka said.

Suddenly, everyone on the streets screamed in terror, "A Demon Lord! A Demon Lord is here!" A man shouted as Izayoi picked up Asuka in his arms and jumped on one of the roof's building beside him. When he reached to the top, he let Asuka down.

"Izayoi-kun!" Asuka said pointing her finger at the top of the giant walls of the city in front of them.

"It looks like they found us." Izayoi said with a smirk looking at three individuals that was standing on top of the wall while a single Strom stood behind them.

Meanwhile in the other world...

"Rias." A voice called out as Rias look behind her, seeing Xenovia and Irina standing in front of her, each wearing a frown on their faces, knowing the news about Izayoi's disappearance. When the two of them heard about the news from Akeno, they were shocked upon hearing it. After that, they immediately searched for him together. But sadly, they couldn't find anything that would take them to Izayoi's whereabouts, because all of them didn't know where Izayoi was abducted. When the two of them got a message that Sona found something that would be related to Izayoi's abduction, they immediately headed to Kuoh Academy, to which they are now.

"Do you really find it?" Irina asked with worry bringing her hands up together.

"See it for yourself. It is in front of the school." Sona said pointing her hand in front of her as Irina looked at her before she focused her sight on Kuoh Academy.

But after a while, she waited but she couldn't find anything. "I can't see it." Irina admitted as Rias nodded in agreement.

"Sona-chan, are you telling the truth?" Serafall asked with a frown. She too, was worried about Izayoi and when she hear that her sister had found something that is related to Izayoi disappearance yesterday, she immediately tagged along with her sister to see for herself. But

"Wait." Sona said again as everyone looked at each other before they looked in front of the school. The night was getting darker and darker, giving it a purplish atmosphere surrounding the school. Everyone looked around at the dark atmosphere before they heard something. Static sounds. They then turned their sight at the school, and Rias's eyes widen, followed by everyone, excluding Sona. Rias saw that there a screen appearing in and out, in front of the school.

After a while, the screen appeared fully in front of them as everyone looked up at the screen.

"We will start our game." A voice said with a smile on her face as Rias's eyes focuses on the red haired girl from before, standing in front of the black haired man and blond haired woman that were involved with Izayoi's kidnapping.

"Yes, my master." Weser and Ratten answered as everyone saw the black haired man and blond haired woman from before, except Xenovia and Irina who didn't met them before in the gym yesterday.

Rias looked at the red haired girl and then the screen immediately zoom in on a person, to which her eyes settle upon the person's face.

Every girl looked at the person and their eyes widen, seeing the person standing before them with a smirk. Rias looked at the person's face and her eyes widen, recognizing the face which was displayed in the screen. Slowly, a tear fell from her eye as she shouted the person's name.

"Izayoi-kun!"
