It had been several days since the student council president called him to the library. He thought about leaving things for now. These days have been relatively quiet. Nothing has happened that caught his attention. The only annoying thing was how insistent Rias was in trying to call him almost every day to the occult club, and how insistent both she and Souna were that he did not deviate on his way to the academy. Although at first he found these measures annoying, in the end he got used to it enough not to show an irritated face.

"It seems that for now it will be fine to trust them with things. They have kept their promise so far. If I suspect the slightest of them I think I can at least defend myself."

As he said this, he was walking towards the academy. Although not much time has passed since he woke up his sacred gear and started training with it, he felt for no apparent reason a great evolution in it. Also, the information that Souna and Rias gave him was incorrect, it seems. His twice critical could not only double his power once.

"Every nine, no, ten seconds it doubles my power. Although I have noticed that it is a huge burden on my body, it is still too useful."

Although for now he could not think of a scenario in which he could scratch either of the two, it was a good sign that he was advancing. Although his power evolved, the shape of his sacred gear apparently did not. The information that both Rias and Souna gave him was incorrect again.

"Was that information false? No, it's totally silly to lie with something like that, besides there's no reason to do it."

If they were not lying, that meant that for some reason he was not following the established pattern, thinking more deeply it was normal. Since he killed Yuuma, he was not following the pattern that the world had established for him, which was to die at her hands and be revived as a demon.

"Although I still keep the information of the sacred gear hidden from them..."

He still felt uncomfortable with them. Everyone in the occult club treated him as if he were a comrade, even Souna invited him to the student council to play chess almost every day during recess. This kind of treatment did not seem common to him.

The reason Rias gave him for protecting him for now was because she felt guilty for letting him deal with the fallen angel on his own. Souna's reason was her responsibility as student council president.

"Although both have made it clear to me that they have not yet given up on making me their servant, even every day both hint at the advantages of joining their clan."

Although their reasons for helping him were silly, he could trust those reasons. As the president said, if their only goal was to take advantage of him, they would have left him alone to die and then turn him into their servant afterwards.

"Even so, if I keep growing at this rate, I will end this cooperation as soon as I can defend myself well enough, after all, I don't want that poison to end up killing me."

He did not want to be betrayed. He had already gone through that once. No, 87 times before. The feeling of being betrayed was something he did not want to repeat, it was painful enough for him instinctively not want to be close enough to someone. If he could trust someone it would be someone who he knows for certain would never betray him. Even so, he does not believe that such a person exists. If such a person exists, without a doubt they would be very manipulative...

As he continued in his thoughts, he continued walking towards his academy. Although suddenly he noticed something on the ground that prevented him from continuing his way.

"Panties?"

As he looked surprised at what was in front of him, he saw her. A girl had tripped in front of him.

"People are getting more careless these days."

He whispered that as he kept walking. He couldn't take a detour and help this girl, Rias and Souna were very blunt in their instructions. Even so, he felt a little bad about leaving someone in that state. At least he should help her pick up her things.

"Hey, are you okay?"

After returning, he asked her that and gave her a hand. Now that he noticed, her clothes were undoubtedly a bit strange. She took his hand and thanked him. At that moment there was a slight breeze in the place that took away the piece of cloth that covered her face. Blonde, her hair was a beautiful blonde color. Looking at her face closely, he noticed how attractive she was. Was she his age? No, before that, Issei picked up the piece of cloth that had fallen off before. Was it a veil? After trying to return it to her, he noticed it. A cross...

"Thank you very much..."

As she put it on, he could see her more closely. She... was she a nun? He doesn't remember there being a church in this place. Wait, there was one in this place, although in that place there is...

"Excuse me, can you help me? I'm a little... lost."

While his gaze remained fixed on her, he could notice her with marked embarrassment. It was because of his gaze, he should leave his bad habit of getting lost in his thoughts when he is looking at someone.

"If you could help me, I would be grateful."

With a little embarrassment, she asked him for that favor. She was a nun... how should he respond now? He was allied with demons for the moment, should he treat her as an enemy? Looking into her eyes, he could tell she had no ill intentions. Even so, deviating from his path was something he was strictly forbidden to do...

In the end, he gave in. That look she had was a big nuisance. If he had told her no, he would feel like kicking a defenseless puppy. Although she was human, maybe that had something to do with him helping her. Being surrounded by demons all the time made his body involuntarily be on alert all the time. In moments when he interacted with other humans his body could relax.

"I'm glad to have found such a kind person, it was undoubtedly a miracle from God."

As she said this, she joined her hands.

"Are you a nun? I say this because of your outfit."

As he asked this, he glanced at her. She had a crucifix on her chest. If she wasn't a nun, it was undoubtedly good cosplay.

"Yes, I was assigned to the church in this town. I'm grateful that you're guiding me. When it comes to directions I'm a bit... distracted."

As she said this, she blushed slightly. At that moment, Issei immersed himself in his thoughts. This was a bit unusual. If they assigned her to the only church in this town it means she would be working near that lunatic. It was undoubtedly a very incompatible combination. Although now he could take advantage of this opportunity to thank him. Although he deviated slightly from his path to the academy, he doesn't think anything serious will happen. Besides, He helped him out of whim but it was undoubtedly key to getting out of that loop. At least thanks wouldn't hurt.

As they continued walking, both noticed a child crying in a small park holding his leg which had a small wound on it. People are getting more and more distracted these days, he thought glancing at the nun.

She immediately ran over to the child and although it surprised him a bit he didn't do anything but just started following her.

"Come on, come on don't cry you're a boy you shouldn't cry."

As she said those words she joined her hands and put them near the wound and at that moment he felt an annoyance in his left arm although he ignored it and green light began to illuminate the child's wound slowly filtering into the wound closing it completely.

At that moment, he sharpened his eyes. He had no doubt, that power was a sacred gear. He stepped back a bit. The girl turned her head at that moment to look at him and made a gesture with her finger to keep the secret.

They continued walking in the direction of the church. He was more alert about her. Although she was not a fallen angel and neither a demon, she still had supernatural power. While he was glancing at her, he decided to speak.

"That power, it's something... incredible I think."

As he said this with little enthusiasm and a bit of distrust towards her, suddenly she looked him in the eyes.

"Yes, it's a wonderful power that God... gave me."

She answered with a smile. Although he could detect that it was a fake smile almost immediately, after all he had faked the same smile dozens of times. Suddenly she raised her voice.

"Oh, there it is."

After saying that, she pointed to the church.

"Thank you very much. I would like to return the favor. Would you like to accompany me?"

After saying that, Issei looked towards the church.

"Sure, although your name, you haven't told me yet."

After remembering that she hadn't introduced herself, he asked her for her name. Although for some reason this situation seemed familiar to him.

"T-that's right, Asia Argento. You can call me Asia."

After introducing herself, he did the same.

"Hyoudou Issei. You can call me whatever you like, Asia."

After the introductions, they headed to the church. He was wondering if that guy would be there. After all, he had told him that he would be in that church when he gave him the light sword. Now that he thought about it, hadn't he told him to return it when he was done? He could make up an excuse if he asks for it.

"It's a relief to have found such a kind person as soon as I arrived in Japan."

After saying that, Issei glanced at her. She didn't seem like a bad girl. Although he's not an expert at judging people, even he can clearly know what kind of personality she has. Undoubtedly it is a very manipulative personality...

They arrived at the doors of the church. Asia knocked on the door several times but no one answered, although he noticed something.

"Is it open?"

After noticing that it was open, he opened the door. Upon opening it, he noticed that everything was dark. Without a doubt, it's a super creepy place to be a church, he thought. At that moment, his unconscious sight noticed a faint white light to his left. His mind stopped. He couldn't say anything, he couldn't react to anything, everything was silent. At that moment, a question arose in him, Why was his head so close to the floor?

N/T:If there is any mistake, please let me know.
