uchou what's done is done and we can't change that, we just need to deal with it," replied Akeno.

Rias sighed but nodded, "inform Sona about what happened and to make the proper arrangements. Also let her know that I'm done letting these Fallen Angels think they've outsmarted us, from now on if we see them then attack on sight. They will pay dearly for this."

"Understood shall I send out the familiars to search for them?" asked her Queen.

"No that will just alert them that we are aware of their presence, for now stick to your normal activities but if you see one of them, eliminate them," she ordered, making Akeno grin eagerly.

"Ara, Ara, I really hope I see one, I could do with a stress reliever after the death of one of dear little kohai," she muttered as lightning crackled around her fingertips.

Koneko just nodded silently in agreement while Kiba had an angered expression on his face as he summoned one of his swords, imagining it cutting off the crow wings of those murderers. The group shared a moment of silence for the departed student before Kiba eventually spoke up.

"I feel sorry for Issei's father, to lose both his wife and now his son. That must be devastating," he mused.

Rias was silent as she stared down at the table before she sighed and stood up, "I'm going to go inform his father about what happened."

"Buchou are you sure that's a good idea? With those Fallen Angels still around who knows what they're planning next," argued Kiba in concern.

"It's my fault this happened Yuuto, if I had just asked if he would be a member of my peerage none of this would have happened. I need to be the one that informs his father," explained Rias as she headed for the door.

"Then let one of us accompany you, as your Knight I heavily advise against this," he replied, getting nods from the others.

"I appreciate the concern but this is something I must do alone if I want to learn from it. Let me know if anything comes up, I have some bad news to deliver," sighed the president as she closed the door and left the building.

"Where the hell have you been?!" shouted Issei while Zelretch just sat back in his park chair and relaxed.

"I've been to many places boy. Although the exact number not even I know anymore but my last count was around 7 billion," replied the magician with a grin as he got up and gestured for Issei to follow.

"That's not what I meant and you know it! Now where are we going?" sighed the teen, walking after him.

"Why my house of course! Even someone like you should be able to figure that out, after all you want to get those wounds treated don't you?" replied Zelretch happily.

"I swear to God, Zelretch I will stab you with Gae Bolg," growled Issei as his left eye began twitching.

"We're here!" cheered the magician, ignoring him completely.

Looking up Issei's eye began twitching again as he turned back to his companion, "Zelretch this is a maid café."

"So it is," replied Zelretch before walking inside.

Issei briefly debated leaving and forgetting about the crazy old man but the pain of his wounds forced him to follow with a sigh. Upon entering the café Issei immediately fell as the floor beneath him faded away and he was sent tumbling down some sort of slide built into the floor. Suddenly he saw light growing larger and prayed that he was in for a soft landing, he shouldn't have bothered.

"So did you enjoy the ride?" asked an amused Zelretch while Issei slowly picked himself up off the floor and resisted the urge to summon Gae Bolg.

Glaring at the magician Issei hissed as he felt his wounds begin closing up while Zelretch attended to them with some form of healing magic, "that was a good start boy I'm very impressed, taking on two Fallen Angels without any practice using the cards and only in the Include state," congratulated Zelretch.

"Fallen Angels? What are you talking about?" replied Issei.

"Oh you know the stories, angels that sinned and were cast out of heaven for their crimes," answered the magician with a dismissive wave of his hand. "Enough about that tell me how did it feel using the cards for the first time?"

Issei frowned at the sudden change of topic but decided to humor the old man as he brought out the Lancer card from the cardholder. "It felt good…I've never felt that kind of power before but at the same time it felt like I wasn't in full control of my body. Like I was a puppet dancing to some else's strings."

"That feeling will pass in time as you become more in tune with the card's Heroic Spirit," assured Zelretch.

"Heroic Spirit?" repeated Issei in confusion.

"Indeed they are the souls of some of the most heroic and infamous figures in human history who upon their deaths ascended into the Throne of Heroes, complete with the power of their legends that usually manifest as what we call Noble Phantasms," explained the magician with a surprisingly serious expression.

"Like Gae Bolg?" guessed the teen.

Zelretch nodded before continuing, "yes Gae Bolg the legendary spear of the demigod Cú Chulainn is a good example of one. But remember not all are as obvious and easy to use as that one."

"That 'Fallen Angel' I was fighting talked about Cú Chulainn like he was still alive so how can he be in the Throne of Heroes?" argued Issei.

"Ah that's actually rather simple, you see all the Heroic spirits used in your cards are actually from another world," he replied, happily causing Issei's eye to twitch once more as he explained the Holy Grail war and 2nd true magic called Kaleidoscope.
