Frustration boiled within Issei as he growled, "Seriously…who are you?! I'm starting to get pissed off now!"
The sender's next message was an invitation that caught Issei off guard, "Would you like to meet me?"
Issei let out an exasperated sigh before replying, "For the love of God, tell me this isn't an angel…"
The sender seemed to confirm Issei's suspicion, responding, "So, you do love God? Yes, I am an angel."
Not wanting any involvement with the angel or any other factions, Issei bluntly expressed his feelings, "No, I don't want to meet you, and I don't care about anything you, the devils, or any other fucking faction has to say to me. Pass that along to your little chain of command and leave me the fuck alone, you feathered bird bitch."
Despite his harsh words, the angel showed concern for Issei's safety, mentioning a powerful devil following him around lately. Issei realized they must be referring to Vali, which further annoyed him.
"Why does that concern you?!" he retorted, seeking an explanation for the angel's interest in his affairs.
The angel persisted, claiming to be a fan of Issei's and expressing concern about Vali's intentions. Issei, however, remained firm in his response, dismissing any need for the angel's protection.
"I don't need some sissy angel's protection... but thanks anyway," Issei retorted, feeling increasingly exasperated by the situation.
The angel assured him they wouldn't bother him but wanted him to know that they would be watching out for him. Issei decided he had heard enough and put his phone away, face-palming in frustration. "Now angels are fucking watching me?! There's no way I can go into the Dimensional Rift if I have to worry about them seeing me now. Can this get any worse?" he thought, feeling the burden of supernatural attention adding to his troubles.
But the prospect of missing Red's four portals stunt was unacceptable to Issei. He was determined to figure out a way to deal with the angel's interference and be there for his mentor's jaw-dropping stunt. "I'll work something out to get these spying assholes off me. We have to be there for that awesome move!" he resolved, unwilling to let anything stand in the way of witnessing Red's incredible feat.
Ddraig brought up the possibility of Heaven's concern over Vali, given her lineage as Lucifer's great-granddaughter. Issei acknowledged that this might be the reason for the angel's contact, but he couldn't understand why they had chosen him as a point of communication. The odd advertisement message he received earlier only added to the mystery and annoyance. "How lame..." he groaned, feeling frustrated with the entire situation.
"At least angels leave people alone for the most part... fallen angels, on the other hand, never go away," Ddraig noted, alluding to the fact that fallen angels tended to be more persistent in their dealings with humans.
Just as they finished discussing the angel situation, the doorbell rang. Issei went to answer it and was surprised to find both Xenovia and Irina sitting on the couch, already awake.
"Morning, Issei!" Xenovia greeted with a smile.
"Good morning, Issei-san," Irina added politely.
Issei couldn't help but smile back at his new housemates. With their presence, the earlier disturbance from the angel seemed to fade into the background, at least for the moment. He was glad to have them around, and together, they would face whatever challenges awaited them in the supernatural world.
"I'm looking at the guide here, and it says you have to find this bow before you can kill that vampire guy. It says you need three dragon scrolls to progress," Irina said, flipping through a guide of the game.
Issei couldn't help but be amused by their dedication, "You two having fun? Did you even go to sleep last night?"
"Yeah, we slept for like 3 hours," Xenovia replied, her eyes remaining glued to the screen.
Her character in the game was wielding a two-handed sword and resembled some kind of templar. Irina and Xenovia were completely engrossed in the virtual world.
Then, out of nowhere, Irina gasped, "Wait... Xenovia, isn't it Sunday?!"
"Oh... you're right," Xenovia said seriously, "we should pray... later."
"Well, I mean, it's not like we can go anywhere... and the only church in town is fallen angel territory," Irina trailed off, her focus returning to the guide.
"I'm sure God will understand," Issei chuckled. Just as he said that, the doorbell rang again.
"Who is that?" Irina perked up curiously.
"It's probably one of those fallen angels," Xenovia said nonchalantly, her attention still fixed on the screen.
Issei decided to check the front door, and as he opened it, he was met with two unexpected visitors.
The delinquent didn't say anything during the long pause and neither did the two devil girls. Standing in his doorway still, he slowly began to close the door as they stared at each other.
To his surprise, the red-haired devil princess, Rias Gremory, stood before him, accompanied by one of her followers. The other girl had long black hair tied up in a ponytail and wore a passive expression.
Issei couldn't believe his eyes, "Did they seriously just show up at my house like this?"
The unexpected guests had left him momentarily stunned, wondering what had brought them to his doorstep.
During the awkward silence that followed, Issei and the two devil girls stared at each other in silence. The tension was palpable, and Issei contemplated shutting the door on them.
Finally, Rias broke the silence, her face turning serious, "Wait, Hyoudou-san, may I have a moment?"
Issei didn't hesitate with his response, "No," and proceeded to close the door on them.
Curious and concerned, Irina asked, "Who was that, Issei?"
"Nobody," he replied with a shrug, not wanting to delve into the matter.
The doorbell rang again, but this time someone was spamming it repeatedly, creating a loud and irritating noise.
"It doesn't sound like nobody," Irina commented with a shake of her head.
Giving in to the annoyance, Issei reluctantly opened the door again, only to find the black-haired girl with the ponytail, Akeno, repeatedly hitting the doorbell button with a light smile on her face.
Fed up with the incessant ringing, Issei grabbed her wrist to stop her, "Will you fucking stop that?!"
In an attempt to defuse the situation, Rias spoke up, "I understand you're not really a fan of devils, and I apologize for Akeno's behavior. We didn't come here to start trouble for you."
Issei remained skeptical but decided to hear them out, "Then what do you want?"
