Chapter 8: Issei and Asia 2
Shirou POV
Today I already told the store owner and the school, about being absent
The reason is to guard Issei
Because of his wound Issei had been absent today, so I had been guarding his home
Seriously for someone so weak he sure attract strange thing
He seems depressed about having to leave Asia with those guy
From his point of view those fallen angel and rogue priest must be a scum
And leaving an innocent girl like Asia must have been bad for his heart
However it can't be helped, after all bringing Asia who is associate with fallen angel might and a sacred gear owner might cause dissatisfaction from the fallen angel side
Then, I see Issei going out from his home
I don't know whether he is an idiot or what, but he probably going outside to have his lunch
I follow him close the hall time, then
"…Asia?" Issei
"…Ise-san?" Asia
Yup, it was Asia.
Issei POV
"…Auu."
It's a strange sight. A Sister is getting confused in front of the register.
"W-What would you like to order…?"
Its lunchtime and I took Asia to a fast food restaurant at the business district.
It seems like Asia never came to this kind of place before, so she is having a hard time choosing her meal.
Seeing the chance, I help her.
"Sorry. She will have the same order as me."
"Okay."
The employee takes the order. Asia on the other hand is shocked.
"Auu, I'm ashamed. I can't even buy a single hamburger by myself…"
"W-Well, first you need to get used to Japanese."
We head towards the empty table as soon as we got our meals while I encourage Asia who is feeling down.
While we are moving inside the restaurant, most of the male customers are looking at Asia.
It's because she is a nun, but also because she's really cute.
Asia is taking a really good look at the hamburger and isn't eating it. Rather, does she even know how to eat it?
"Princess, you can eat this by taking the wrap off like this."
I showed her how to do it while smiling.
"T-There's actually a way to eat like that!? A-Amazing!"
She takes a small bite of the burger.
She starts eating it.
"D-Delicious! This burger is very delicious!"
This girl is saying it while her eyes are shining. What does she normally eat?
'What do you normally eat?"
"Mainly bread and soup. I also eat vegetable and pasta food."
Such simple food. Is Church like that?
"Is that right? Then eat it carefully so you remember the taste. "
"Yes. I will eat it with joy."
Asia starts eating it deliciously. But why was she at that park?
She said she has time off, but it seems like she is running away from something.
When she saw me, she seemed relieved.
I wanted to ask her but that might been a thoughtless question. I probably should wait till she feels like telling me.
We then go to the game center to play some game
I'm currently playing racing game with Asia.
After we finish the game I thought about going to other place
But then,
I lost sight of Asia. When I looked, she is standing in front of the crane game.
"What is it?"
"Hau! N-No… I-It's nothing."
When I ask her, she tries to hide it.
"Is there something you want?"
When I look inside the crane game there is a doll of "Rache-kun" inside. It's a cute mascot based on a mouse. If I remember correctly, this character came from Japan but it's popular worldwide. So that's why Asia also knew it.
"Asia, do you like Rache-kun?" I said
"Eh? N-No, t-that is…" Asia said
Asia's face gets red, and she nods her head shyly.
"Okay. I will get it for you!" I said
"Eh? B-But…!" Asia said
"It is okay, no worry." I said
Strike while the iron is hot. I put the coin in immediately and started controlling the crane.
I had a hard time getting it.
I finally managed to get it on my sixth try!
I made a victory pose and took Rache-kun which I just dropped out. I then give it to Asia.
"Here you go, Asia."
Asia became so happy that she held the doll to her chest.
"Thank you very much, Ise-san. I will take care of this doll."
"Hey hey, if a doll like that makes you happy, then I'll get you more next time."
That's what I said to her., but she shook her head.
"No, this Rache-kun that you gave me represents the wonderful day I met you. Since today is the only day I met you, I will take good care of this doll."
…Her words makes me shy.
But, when this girl says it, it actually seems natural.
Well, never mind!
"Okay! We haven't started yet! Asia, we will play for the whole day today! Follow me!"
"Y-Yes!"
I took Asia's hand and went further into the game centre.
Shirou POV
I never would imagine that Issei able to actually flirting with girl properly.
I thought he will just bring the girl to the love hotel
Well that just show that he have a pure side
After getting out of the game center I continue to follow them
Right now, they're visiting some park
It seems they're in a middle of conversation
"Issei-san! Why is it that you walk strangely since just now?"
"It just the wound still hasn't healed."
"That's terrible, you should have told me about it."
Green light appear on Asia hand.
"Please try move." Asia said
"Oh! It healed already." Issei said
"That's good to hear" Asia said
"You are amazing, Asia. The healing power, it's an incredible power. …This is a Sacred Gear, right?" Issei ask
"Yes, it is." Asia answer
"To tell you the truth, I also have a Sacred Gear. Though, it's not much of a use. Right now, that is." Issei said
"Ise-san, you also have a Sacred Gear? I didn't realise it at all." Asia said
"Hahaha, I don't even know its effect. And to compare it, Asia, your power is amazing. This can heal humans, animals, and also Devils like me, right?" Issei said
….
She then started crying
"WAAAHHH! Don't cry please, I'm sorry." Issei said out loud
"No, it isn't Issei-san fault." Asia said while wiping her tear
"I-Issei-san would you mind hearing my story." Asia said
She then tell her story
Yeah this is exactly the same story I read using structural analysis on her belonging back then
In a certain region in Europe, there was a girl who was discarded by her parents.
She was raised in a Church nearby by a nun along with other orphans.
The girl who was a strong follower of the Church received a special power at the age of 8.
She healed a wounded puppy, and a person from the Catholic Church witnessed it by chance.
From there on, her life changed.
The girl was taken to the main Catholic Church and she was symbolised by many as a "Holy Maiden" because of her healing power.
She had no dissatisfaction for how she was treated. People from the Church were kind and she didn't hate healing people.
She instead was happy that her power was of use.
But she was a bit lonely.
She didn't have any friends she could open up to.
Everyone treated her nicely and was nice to her. But there were no one willing to become her friend.
They didn't look at her as a human but as a creature that could heal humans.
But one day, it changed.
By coincidence, there was a Devil nearby and she healed it
A wounded Devil. The girl couldn't ignore it.
She thought that even if it was a Devil, she had to heal it if it was injured.
But, this resulting the people calling her traitor and people even start calling her a witch.
Not to mention, normally there are no way people can heal devil, because their demonic energy prevent healing abilities to work.
There are only a few method devil can heal themselves.
So it is no strange she is deemed as witch
After I finished recalling that memory I see
I look back at the two of them
Asia POV
"…It's because I didn't pray enough. It's because I'm clumsy. I'm so stupid that I can't even eat a burger by myself." I said
"This is also a trial that the lord gave me. Since I'm a clumsy nun, the lord gave me this trial. So I have to endure it." I said
Yeah, if I give up now I can never have friends
"Well then I shall become you friend. No, we are already friends." Issei-san said
"I'm a D-Devil, but it's all right. I won't take Asia's life, and I won't take any price! You can call me whenever you feel like it! Ah, and I will also give you my mobile number." Isse-san said
…..-!
I then started crying
"…Why?" I said
"It's not why! Asia, you played with me for the whole day right? We talked right? We laughed together right? Then you and I are friends! A human, a Devil, or God doesn't matter! We are friends!" Issei-san said
"So let's stay together from now on" Issei said
My tear start to fall I can't help but cry
Oh lord!
Thank you so much, for letting me meeting Issei-san
I who never made a single friend, able to meet this person
Although he is a devil, he also my first friend
If it's now I think I can die in peace.
"It's impossible." Raynare said
"After all you're going to die for our sake today." Raynare said
A voice which rejects all my thoughts.
When I look towards the direction of where the voice came from, I become speechless.
I see so it is time
I then stand and go to that person direction
Issei POV
"Raynare! You bastard, what do you want?" I said
"Don't call my name easily insect." Raynare said
"Mittelt you better kill this trash, I am going to bring Asia with me." Raynare
"Y-y-y-yes!" Mittelt said while shaking her voice
I then see my opponent.
The so called Mittelt was a girl with blonde hair styled into twintails and blue eyes
She wore a Gothic Lolita attire, which consisted of a black Lolita dress with white frills, a large black bow on the front, and a green jewel embedded on the collar, white thigh-high socks, and black shoes. She also wore a large black bow on top of her hair.
RAAARRREEEE!
I scream at my heart at the sight of this kid, but she is a fallen angel she definitely stronger than me.
I prepare myself to fight, but it seems there is no need to
A person with a red hair appear before us.
It is Emiya Shirou
Shirou POV
I give up!
Seriously how many time did this guy will be attacked.
This is already the fourth time
Then again my E-rank luck must got something to do with it
When I see the little girl called Mittelt preparing to attack Issei
I immediately subdue her
Using black key I aim at the kid shadow
She then stopped moving
"I-I-I can't move." Mittelt
"You again! Dammit!" Raynare said
"Asia come with me!" Raynare said
I like to subdue Raynare as well but when she see me, she left almost immediately using teleportation spell.
"W-Wait!" Issei said
Damn, from the look of his face he definitely planning to save Asia
Based on what that trash said, they plan to sacrifice Asia life
I better tell Rias Gremory about this situation first
I then grab Issei shoulder
"Issei!" I said
"What is It now?" Issei said angrily
"I know, you want to save that girl, but now we need to contact your master first, plus we got this girl to tell us their plan." I said while pointing at Mittelt
After hearing that Issei calmed down.
Anyway we need to act fast, time is scarce
