"Hey, Newby. I-"

"It's all right, Saji-san." Issei said as he gave Saji a soft half-smile.

Saji widened his eyes at Issei's words.

"I hold nothing against you as a person. On the other hand, it'll take a long time for me to get used to Devils. So staying away from each other is a good plan. No conflicts, no worries."

Saji nodded and crossed his arms.

"I just wanted to say I'm sorry about your cousin. She really seemed like a nice person."

Looking at Saji for a moment, Issei shook his head.

"Leiko-san's still alive."

The Student Council members widened their eyes, with the exception of Sona.

Staring at Issei for a moment, Sona nodded. That was a genuine relief to hear.

"I'm glad to hear that. And I appreciate you acting like this in a civilized manner, Issei Hyoudou. I am sure my peerage and I can agree to abide by your rules."

Issei nodded in response to Sona's words, and he put his hands in his pockets once more.

"Then it's settled."

As she watched Issei turn around to leave, Sona widened her eyes as she had just remembered something.

"Issei."

Turning around, Issei looked at Sona, raising an eyebrow.

"My older sister would like to meet with you. It's an important matter. Also a friend of mine, Rias Gremory, would also like to speak with you."

Staring at Sona for a few moments, Issei removed his hand from the door.

"...I'll think about it, the conversation with your sister. As with this Gremory person..."

"She's the President of the Occult Research Club." Tsubaki answered as she watched Issei.

"She's also Sirzechs-sama's younger sister." Saji added in his two cents.

At the mention of the Maou, Issei unconsciously flared out a small portion of ki, causing the members of the Student Council to back away. After a few moments, Issei calmed down almost immediately, and suppressed his energy.

"Tell this Rias girl, that if she wants to talk to me, then she'll have to come seek me out herself."

As he went to open the door, Issei turned back around.

The Underworld (Azazel's Headquarters)

Raynare sighed as she sat in Azazel's base. Dressed in her Fallen Angel attire, she put her hand on her cheek.

"Something wrong, Raynare?"

At her name, Raynare looked over to Kalawarner, who had her arms crossed in a bored manner.

"It's nothing."

Kalawarner rose an eyebrow, but then she shrugged. Her eyes glazing slightly, Raynare held herself.

'I hope Issei-kun is all right today.'

In Another Section of Azazel's Headquarters

"Yo, Azazel. You called?"

Azazel, the leader of the Fallen Angels turned to look at a young man with dark silver hair and light blue eyes.

"Vali. Yes I did."

Azazel crossed his arms and sighed.

"I have a suspicious feeling that Kokabiel is planning something. I believe he wants to start another Great War."

Raising a silver eyebrow, Vali scoffed.

"And how does that concern me? Can't you take care of it?"

"Because I know that you and Albion have been looking for a stronger opponent. And I believe that Kokabiel's plan involves Ddraig, the Red Dragon Emperor."

At the mention of Albion's rival, Vali widened his eyes. Smirking at Vali in amusement, Azazel closed his eyes.

"Tell me, Vali. Have you ever heard of the legendary sword; the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi?"

Fortune Cooky Restaurant

An employee smiled as he carried some bags out.

"It hasn't even been thirty minutes yet, so today might be my lucky day.

On top of the restaurant building stood Ophis, who looked down upon the car the employee was about to enter into.

Ophis lifted up a finger, and she narrowed her eyes.

"I, shall definitely have, free food."

The employee got into his car, and got ready to start the engine, until he noticed something slithering next to him. Tensing at the sound of the creature, the delivery man slowly looked towards the seat next to him.

"...AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

Issei's House (An Hour Later)

Issei blew out a sigh as he walked into his house. Closing the door behind him, he looked up to see Ophis sitting on the couch, looking at the clock on the walls.

"Ophis?"

Removing her attention from the clock, Ophis titled her head and offered a small smile as she looked at Issei

"My Issei. You are back."

Issei blinked, and then he gave Ophis a soft smile.

"Yeah, finally. I'm glad to see that you're still here."

Putting his hands in his pockets, Issei looked around the house.

"So did you do anything today, Ophis?"

KNOCK KNOCK

Issei widened his eyes, and he opened the door to see a delivery man covered with extreme snake bites.

"Hey, man. A-are you all right?"

"Just take the food!"

The man whimpered, and gave Issei a large bag, and ran off to his car, driving away quickly.

Raising an eyebrow, Issei looked in the bag, smelling something quite appetizing.

"Ophis? Did you order something?"

Issei looked up, and he jumped a little in surprise when Ophis suddenly appeared right in front of him. He noticed that since Ophis was in her adult form, she was a little taller than him.

'Huh. Never noticed that.'

Grabbing the bag from Issei, Ophis lifted her hand up and formed it into a thumbs up gesture.

"I, have obtained food."

Walking away from Issei, Ophis sat back on the couch, and reached into the bag to take out her order.

Blinking several times, Issei widened his eyes when he noticed something strange.

"Hey, Ophis, you're supposed to pay for delivery you know."

Pausing in her eating, Ophis set her dark-gray eyes to Issei. Her mouth curved upwards into an expression akin to a sly smile.

"I, shall have free food."
