Hey Readers. Welcome back. First I have to say my desire to write the story increased, so I finished writing Ch10 quickly. Anyway, I brought Asia into the story. First of all, like in the anime, the Asia / Issei relationship does not develop well all at once. The first one is Issei Not a simp in this fanfic. That's why I decided to build the Asia / Issei relationship slowly.

Ddraig Talking ( )

Talking " "

Boosted Gear [ ]

(10) Redemption part 1

"I'm home" I unlocked the main door and headed inside. "Welcome back" Mom said while preparing food.

"Hey mother, where is father?" I asked.

"I think he is still sleeping," Mother said while chuckling. It's now 6.30a.m. Well I still have some time for preparation. So I can go to school. I didn't go to school for two weeks so I thought it would be good to go today.

"So Issei, how was your trip?" She gave me a coffee cup and asked. I sat on a chair and started to drink it.

"Well, It's not bad I had fun"

"I have to asked you what happened to your hair"

"My hair!" Yes, I had forgotten that my hair is a little red now. Ddraig told me that this happened because I was able to take full control of the balance breaker. But this is not mentioned in the novel. I think my Dragon transformation may have affected this to some extent. "Sorry mother, I have to color it. Don't worry, it will fade after a few more days" I said, But I know mothers don't like this kind of thing.

"Hmm Ok then, But It's look good on you. It's like you're cool or something and your look also changed" Then mother went to the kitchen. At the same time "Issei Welcome back Looks like you had fun" Father came in.

"Hey father, Good morning. Yes I had some fun. Looks like You're the person having fun here"

"Nah! It's really hard to keep up with your mother's voice" He sat on nearby chair.

"Hey!! I can still hear you" I heard the sound of my mother from the kitchen.

"Oops I got caught" Father started laughing.

It is really amazing to live with this family. They are joyful and always listen to me. After I got reincarnated to this world my life got better. Well I still don't know who reincarnated me. in this world God is dead. Archangel Michael controls the prayer system and he tries to protect the humans. My problem is this universe really the only one?, or is there a parallel world like this world?, maybe God is alive in those worlds. He is completely omnipotent so I think many things were possible for him.

"Father, I have to go to school. Enjoy your food now" I got up from my chair and headed to my room. I brushed my teeth, put on my uniform and left the house.

(Partner, Good morning)

'Hey Ddraig and morning' Ddraig contacted me via telepathy link. He is the Welsh dragon currently living inside of the Boosted gear.

(I have to tell you something. Your progress is getting really high. I think you can become the strongest red dragon of this generation)

'Wow thanks for the compliment, But I'm not the only one right'

(Of course Before that there was a man and a woman. Maybe you will meet them one day. Because a part of the soul of the previous hosts is connected with the boosted gear. As I said, if your mind has become stronger…)

Boring 'yeah yeah I can understand well. It's getting close to the school so..'

(Yes understood) Ddraig went to sleep mode. He can understand situations correctly. When I come to Sona, Ddraig is trying to minimize the energy that can come out of the Boosted gear as much as possible. So I was able to hide my identity without any problem. But I can't hide this for long. Because if I participate in the upcoming event, I have to show the whole supernatural world who I am. I have to be ready for all those things.

Currently I'm Infront of the school gate.

'Let's go then' After I entered, many students started looking at me with wide eyes. 'What now! I already put my gear on hibernation mode so they don't need to fear, right?' I can hear some students talking about me. But it doesn't matter to me. After that I reached my classroom.

"Excuse me" I opened the classroom door and headed inside. All my classmates looked like they were surprised by something.

"What! Why are you guys watching me like that?" I crossed my arms and started to observe my classmates' facial expressions. They all looked at me as if they were looking at an outsider.

"May I ask who are you?" Murayama stepped in. 'Oi Oi These guys forget me or something?'

"What?" That's the word that came out of my mouth. "Who are you? What are you doing in our classroom?" Murayama. She is one of my classmates and she is also the president of the Kendo club, So she has some guts and pride. That's why she's the only one who comes in front of me and asks 'who are you'.

"You guys seriously forgot one of your classmates who has not come to school for just two weeks???" I asked.

"No way Issei!" Murayama's eyes widened.

"Huh Issei"

"Is that really him He looks different"

"look he suddenly got taller"

"yeah I can see that too. His body also got somekind of big and his muscles also perfect"

"Most importantly He just colored his hair It's against the school rules Didn't he know that"

The others in my class started whispering things to each other. But the most important thing is that I can hear you guys well. A few moments later they got calm and I sat on my chair now It's time for the study.

I didn't have time to talk to Murayama,Katase, Kiryuu because they were so surprised that they didn't even try to look at me during the class. At least Kiryuu didn't try to talk to me. Maybe there is a change in my behavior pattern or maybe the three of them feel my aura differently. Because Kiryuu is also descended from Magicians. Anyway, I was able to finish the day's studies without any problem. But those three didn't talk to me until the end. Then I decided to give them some time. Before that I want to meet Sona. At the same time, Today I have to dye my hair. Maybe because this could be a big problem in the future.

I started walking towards the council office. In any case, the school is over and the devil can roam inside this school without any problem. I went to the council office and stopped, but there was not much good.

"Closed" Most of the time, this board is hung only when other people including Sona are not there. But the surprising thing is that no one is here on a day like today. "I am now an official member of this but no one has remembered to give me an extra key." Finally, I decided to go to Sona's class and see. Anyway, since there are extra classes for third year students, she can be there too. Sona and Tsubaki's class is behind this building. I came out of the council office and started walking towards the second building. But when I went and looked, I realized that Sona was not there either. In the third year, I was able to see that many people participated in the extra class and studied. At the same time "Hey are you Issei hyoudou, the new member of the student council office?" One of the girls who sat behind me asked.

"Huh yes senpai My name is Issei Hyoudou" I bowed my head politely.

"Then here I think this belongs to you" She handed me a letter in a white envelope.

"What is this?" I took the letter in my hands.

"It's from Sona. Well yesterday she gave me this letter and said 'please give this to issei hyoudou' I accept it, You can leave now Kouhai" She turned to the front and again she started to study. Her hair is different from Blonde and according to the clothes she was wearing, she can be compared to a Delinquent. Maybe she is a Gal, It doesn't matter to me anyway. That means Sona knew that I had come to the classroom to find her.

"May I ask you a question?" She nodded while writing something.

"How did you find out about me? I mean we two never meet right?

"Huh thats?" She turned back again and looked at my face.

"It's your Hairstyle. It looks different. But It's very similar to what Sona said to me. Sometimes she only talks about you" She said and started to laugh. "I see thank you then. It's nice to meet you senpai"

"Sure" After that I left Sona's classroom.

I took out the letter inside and started reading. "What!" In it, it was written that others including Sona will be staying in the Underworld for a few days and as the only council member in the school, I have to see the work going on in the school. Not only that, there was another thing in it. The second thing was to work together with Rias for a few days. So I can learn about the devil's society and their abilities from the Rias. There is good as well as bad here. I can learn more from Rias. I can't use the demonic power yet. The bad thing is that if I stay with her, there is a chance of getting into an unwanted problem.

It's not good. I don't know what will happen if Rias finds out about Asia. I have no right to change his fate. I only save Asia with the intention of stopping Kokabiel so she can decide what she will do next. Anyway, there is no point in being with Asia Rias. He is someone who wants to join Issei's peerage. But only if she likes that decision.

After that I'm on my way to Occult research club. I didn't like it, But it was a request from Sona. "Rias buchou Can I come in?" I waited for her permission. "huh It's Issei right Please come in" What is that sound ah Now I get it.

"Then excuse me" I unlock the door and head inside. No one here. Does that mean Rias and I are the only ones in this room? After that I started to examine the room. It has two rooms, the first one is for guests and other members. Second one on the right has a Bathroom or Kitchen? Can't guess it.

"Hey are you there Issei can you help me?"

"Huh Yes I'm here, Please tell me"

"Do you see the big towel on the red chair, can you give me that?'' She stretched out her hand from the semi-transparent curtain in the bathroom. 'What Rias is this your usual behavior or are you trying to seduce me?' I took the towel and went to the bathroom and put it on her hand. "Thank you" she started bathing again. In the anime, however, she is beautiful, and her naked body inside the curtain, as well as her big chest, looked good to me. "Issei, give me two minutes you can sit there. I will come" I came away from there and sat on the nearby sofa. She always tried to seduce Issei. First it's not from a romantic way. She tried to power him up. Only option to Make a pervert stronger by doing a pervert thing. Of course she knows I'm the most perverted person in this whole school.

After a few minutes she came out from the bathroom.

"Sorry for the wait" She still hasn't removed the wetness in her body. I could even see the color of her bra from inside the uniform she was wearing. She turned on a switch nearby wall. "Ah it's the heater'

"Sorry I came so suddenly. Well you can work with us. Of course It's a Sona's request. I can't ignore it right?" She sat in the opposite direction.

"Yes Thank you for having me and I'm sorry for the trouble" I got up and politely bowed my head.

"No no. please no need to apologize" She smiled at me.

"Buchou, where are the others?"

"Ah them They not with me now, They are on training"

"I see good for them" I said.

Rias got up and stood in front of the coffee machine and pressed the one button. hot coffee that came from the machine and it started to fill a cup.

"It's thanks to you" Rias filled the second cup and after that she gave a coffee cup to me.

"Thank you" I started to drink it. It's tasty but not like coffee made by Tsubaki. And I need to taste a cup of coffee that akeno makes.

"Rias buchou, what do you mean by it, thanks to you?" I took a second sip of coffee.

"Remember you fight with Saji ? After that he started to change. He started training continuously even on holidays. Next is Koneko, she is strong but she was surprised after seeing your strength in combat. So she also started training now. Kiba and Akeno started training them. That's the story." Rias crossed her legs and Looked at me.

"Good for them" I finished my coffee and put the cup on the table.

"I heard you're pervert.But you didn't even impressed by me" She said that and bowed to me. 'Just as I thought' I could see her big chest once again. 'Calm down Issei Calm down' I kept trying to calm down my mind.

"Of course, but a woman's body doesn't matter to me any more." I crossed my arms and directly looked at her Eyes.

"Is that so Then I will trust you" after that she started to act like usual. She gave me a big explanation about the Devil's past and about 72 pillars, and her explanation is helpful. I know about the Devil but this kind of information is not in the novel either.

"Then I will be going now Rias buchou" I got up from my seat and started to leave.

"Wait Issei" She stopped me.

"Huh what is it Rias buchou?" She crossed her arms under her big chest.

"We heard about A class of stray devil hides in this town. We already discovered its location. We will go tonight and try to finish it, you can come too if you like" She looked at me.

'It's a good chance for test my physical strength'

"I will come then please send me the location I will come by " She nodded and I left the clubroom.

I was on my way home. and I got a phone call from Raynare.

"Hello What is it?"

"Asia She will come to Kuoh In two days"

"Hmm it's getting closer. Have you decided on the day of Ritual?"

"Yes On the next day after Asia's arrival"

"You know about Freed Sellzen right?"

"Yes, what about him?"

"You need to keep him away from the peoples on the town But I have to say this He will die in 4 days"

"Ok I will do something about then. Bye Issei"

"Bye and tell Kalawarna and Mittelt that I said hello to them" After that I end the call.

"Tch It's getting closer" I had already decided that I would work for the people and protect him. But is it right to kill all peoples to save one, I still can't decide this properly. I am a devil, so I have no humanity, but inside I am still a human. No one has helped me and looked at me in my previous life.But here I am trying to save some people in the other world. I can decide after a few days first I need a bath.

First day was over. That night I went out with Rias to watch the battle with the stray devil. I thought I would get a chance to fight too, but Rias didn't let me fight. Anyway, I got a great understanding of their fighting ability. For example, Kiba is stronger than shown in the anime and he prefers to wield a duel sword. I know that Koneko is a nekomata, but the surprising thing is that even though she doesn't like Nekomata powers, she uses Senjutsu without realizing it. She strengthened her arms with Senjutsu and was inclined to fight. Finally, Akeno Himejima. It seems to me that she can fight face to face with my 1st liberation but this is not her full power.

"I'm impressed" I clap by using my hands.

"Huh," Rias said.

"What do you mean Issei?" Kiba put away his sword.

"You guys can do better than this. Look Saji . I think you think about the gear in battle too much. But what if you can't use absorption line, what are you thinking of doing? I also said that you have to increase your physical strength." I crossed my arms.

"Yes I'm kept trying Issei, One day I will show you" Saji clenched his fist. "That's the spirit, I'm waiting for that day" I got in front of the Kiba.

"Second is Kiba, don't you think You need to increase your sword durability? Can you give me that sword?" I looked at the sword in his hand and said "Sure" he gave me his sword.

Kiba's Sword Birth Sacred gear is really good. If he is better trained, he can make the best Excalibur in the world. But that event has not come yet, I am waiting for that day, I can even meet my rival that day.

"What do you think? If I use my gear for this, will it break or not?" I looked at them.

"No way You can't break it Issei" It's Rias who talks.

"Then" I used my 1st liberation mode and my right hand to break the sword. First, the sword began to bend in the middle. I know very well that I am about to break the sword because my hand can feel what is happening in the middle of it. And finally Break the sword broke in the middle. Everyone looked at my gear in surprise.

"This is a new form that I unlocked. It can make me five times stronger than I was before"

"I see You have some strength. Normally even a middle class devil can't break my swords" Kiba's face changed. Now he is looking down.

"Sword birth, I'm jealous of you Kiba" he suddenly said "Wait..you know about it?"

"Of course I know, one of my friends said your gear is really powerful because she fought with a sword birth user". Of course It's a lie I just need to cheer him up.

"Don't worry Issei, you can count me as your rival one day I will surpass you. It is my ambition now" Kiba looked at me like a true rival.

"I'm waiting for Kiba and third one Oh I forget she is second beautiful in Kuoh academy Don't you think Akeno senpai" I used an evil smile to confuse her.

"hahaha I don't know what you are talking about." her cheek got red and she blushed.

"Why do you underestimate yourself? This is not your full power, right? What are you hiding, Akeno senpai?" I asked while joking but her face became dark. 'It's not good. Looks like I asked something that is not good to ask.

'Issei Hyoudou, what are you trying to do now?' Rias began to think.

I don't know why I asked, but I can't leave here without solving this now. "Don't be afraid of your power..It's not someone who gave it to you Akeno senpai, Koneko, It is your power and it only belongs to you. Control it, Surrender it to yourself and devour it So you two can be stronger" I bend down and look at Koneko's eyes.

"What are you trying do Koneko, Destroy it or Protect it someone you love?"

"Protect…I will protect" She clenched her fist. I can see tears build up in her eyes.

I know what you're thinking. But soon you will know that what you are thinking about your sister is wrong.

"Koneko" Rias looked at Koneko.

"Good, Good Koneko Please get stronger for your loved ones" I gently pat her head for a few seconds. After that she somehow got calm 'I need to touch her Nekomata ears'

""Pervert"" huh I got carried away. It's really rude. All I did was touch her head.

Ah Saji damn you Why hell are you laughing.

"Ok then" I got up and looked at her again. Her cheek was red.

"Rias buchou, I'm happy for you. You got an amazing peerage" I looked at her while smiling.

"Yes They are amazing" Her hair started to dance with the wind. I thought she was a bad person But now I can see She's not bad, she 's just spoiled.

"So then Let's go to club ro–" and suddenly I got a call from my mother.

"Hello Mother, Yes I'm with my friends..huh ah..yes I will come, But! No no wait Please please don't eat that..It's my chocolate pudding, Waaait mother" Mother hung up her phone.

"Rias buchou I have to quickly then Bye guys Good Night" And I used my teleportation ring that Sona gave me to teleport in front of my home.

"Geez What's up with him" Rias put her hand on her waist.

"Chocolate pudding!" Saji started to laugh.

"He ran for a chocolate pudding hahahaha" His laugh now even louder.

'So he likes chocolate pudding, maybe I can make a pudding for him' Akeno thought.

"What do you think about his advice Akeno" Rias looked at Akeno.

"I don't have any idea Rias, But what he said is True"

"Yeah I agree with you. Sona got a wonderful person for her peerage"

"Are you jealous, Rias?" Akeno asked her.

"No Of course not I'm happy for her" She crossed her hand under her chest.

"I don't dislike him,'' Koneko said while biting a chocolate piece.

"Previously perverted huh?" Rias Looked at sky. There was not a single cloud in the sky at that time. She felt a strange calmness in her heart. She then started looking at her peerage again. In one place, Saji is constantly laughing, and in another side, Kiba is continuously using his sacred gear. Rias could see that he was trying to increase the strength of his sword. At that time, Rias thought that both Akeno and Koneko would be slightly different from what Issei said. 'Just who are you Issei Hyoudou?'

"Let's go then" After that they left the place.

After that I went home. But my pudding was eaten by my father. Now I'm in my bed.

(Partner I need to ask you something)

"Yes, what is ?"

(Why did you try to help them? I know you're kind person, But you don't like that gremory girl right?)

"Yeah It's kinda like that. But trust me they have their own problems. So I thought helping them would be great benefit for us"

It's true. Because in the novel most of the events are handled by Rias and the team. Reason is Sona is a just a supporting character. She has great potential but Author never tried to use it well.

(Ok then Let's see what happened after this)

Ddraig went to sleep mode. 'Is he angry?'

'Hmm Ritual day is also coming'

One days passed and Nothing important happened, but I was tired of working in this council. As Sona told me, they will come to Kuoh in 5 days. But I have a problem with working in the council office of this school. Sona had completed all the paperwork but some paperwork was sent to me again to complete it. Because of this, I could only spend two hours in the classroom. I was not able to talk to the three girls, and according to Raynare's SMS, she said that Asia would be coming to Asia Kuoh tomorrow at around 9.30am, which means that I have to take a day off from school tomorrow. Today's work is also finished. But I will get my revenge from you Sona senpai.

The day Asia comes

It's 8.00am now. The first thing I did was call Raynare and tell her that I would bring her to stay at the old church. The first thing to do to save Asia is to establish a good relationship with her. Because I won't meet Issei like she did by chance in the anime. That's why I completely nailed the plan from the beginning. I don't know what kind of person Asia is in this world, so I didn't want to take any risk.

I left home around 8.30am. Went straight to the small bus station on the east side of the city. because people coming from far away come to Kuoh from that road. Anyway, Asia is an outcast from the church, so there is no chance of her coming to Kuoh in a luxury car. I sat in a chair there and waited. It is now 10.10am and she has not come yet. 'Oh, there she is'. I saw Asia a while ago, and she's wearing the same clothes she's wearing in the anime. She tried to talk to two or three people. But unfortunately no one could understand the Italian she spoke. 'Not enough' I hid and waited because I wanted to see what she was going to do. She tried to talk to others for a while and started walking back towards Kuoh City. I also followed her so that she could not see me. After a while, she reached a park. Yes, I remember that it was shown here in the anime. The most special thing is that she walked past the place where Issei bumped into Asia for the first time. Then she sat on a chair in the park and started drinking the water bottle she had. Unfortunately, it's over too. I don't think she has any more money. Therefore, as a second step, I bought a bottle of water from a vending machine so I could approach her.

"Here" I came close to Asia and I gave water bottle that I bought while ago.

"Huh Thank you" She took it and started to drink. "You're welcome" I started to left from the park "Wait Do you know Italian language?" she asked me.

"haha Kinda" I scratched my cheek.

"Thank God. Please, I need to ask something from you. Would you like to help me?" She bowed her head. "Yes please tell me" She gave me a paper with an address on it. 'As I thought it's the old church,' "So you need to go to this place?"

Asia looked at me and said "Yes, can you show me the way?"

"Ok then pick up your bag and follow me"

She got her bag and silently followed me. There is no difference, she is too innocent like in the anime. Who follows someone who they don't even know about?

"My name is Issei Hyoudou. What is yours?" I asked her. "I'm Asia Argento, please take care of me." She has beautiful blonde hair, It's long enough to her waist.

"So you're a nun right? that's why you're going to that church" I pointed my index finger to the Old church. It's visible to this road.

"Oh yes I'm a nun" She fixed her veil so she could hide her face properly. She never tried to talk with me that much. But I can clearly understand. She is a little sad because she is now in an unknown area.

After a few minutes we came to the destination.

"Here That is your destination. So then let's meet again Asia. then good bye" I waved at her and she said "Yes It's a pleasure to meet you. You're really kind. Let's meet again and It's a promise" she started to climb the stairs. I don't know what kind of dangerous situation I will meet you next.

"Hey Raynare, Yes It's me. please take care of her. Yes please. wait, one more thing. Don't let Freed go out for two or three days. Then bye" I end the call. "This is exhausting. Don't worry Asia, I will come back for you." I don't know if the next day will be a good day, But I somehow stop Kokabiel from going into battle.

And Finished. I think Next one will be end of the Asia arc. Similarly, in the next chapter, Issei will use some of his new combat techniques. Be prepared.
