~ I have added this Fanfic to my Patreon. If you'd like to read advanced chapters, feel free to check it out!
~ I'm planning to increase the number of advanced chapters to +50 this weekend!
~ I've edited some of the previous chapters to remove anything you might consider "cringe" or "unnecessary." I'll continue reviewing them from time to time!
~ Very soon, we'll return to releasing two chapters daily, including bonus privileges for Power Stone contributions!

"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?"
