Chapter 16 - Score!

Issei was half expecting it was the case but it was still surprising to get by someone on date even though he did multiple dates with Raynare before she killed him.

He wanted to decline considering she was only asking because of what happened to her but she couldn't just let someone go alone facing their trauma. Issei did have personal experience when he found out Raynare reason for killing him.

Still he didn't want to accept out of self pity as Issei was also interested in her. As the harem king he must not let go a woman who's willing date him.

"Hold on are you really asking me on date?"

"A-Ah no of course not! Its more like inviting you on shopping om Saturday! You can bring Asia if you want since she seem a nice girl."

"That's sound very much a date."

"No it's not!!"

"Okay okay sure I'm free but just the two of us."

"Really!!?"

"Yeah! "

Murayama was surprise that Issei accepted. They quickly made plans on their date while she constantly blushing on how Issei making her feel safe. It makes her forget the day.

Issei notice her froze quickly put his on her shoulder that her flinch. He knew it was hard to take in when your close in getting r*pe. Murayama had been constantly having nightmare about it but always calms down when she recalled Issei.

In her dream something had been whispering, it was quiet and unnoticeable. The voice contain the 'innocence' of a small child whispering in the background. Soon she will know what is it. [A/N: hint]

"Murayama are you alright?"

"Y-Yeah, I'm just exci-I mean thinking about how this goes."

"Relax nothing going to happened as long I'm here."

His words strike her heart making true feel innocent. She did feel dirty and filthy on how those thugs touch her body. Unlike Issei who only a pervert but knows his limits.

Issei seeing her eyes having the same gaze as his lovers in the past who began to show their affections. He knew it was too fast therefore won't take advances. Afterwards they heard the school bells.

"Ah damn I forgot to bring my food!"

"Oh sorry for taking your time Issei."

"No need to I'm not really hungry. Anyways lets go back."

Issei unconsciously took her hands that Murayama even more flustered. They arrived in their room meeting up with Asia talking to Aika and Katase. Aika first to notice them only smirk while Katase surprise to see her close friend with Issei.

"Oh I wonder two went?"

"Murayama are you alright? Did that pervert did anything to you?"

"Jeez aren't you two exaggerating? Can't it just because be coincidence that we arrive at the same time?"

"You? Nah I think their going on between you two. Hey Asia you need to be careful this guy is pervert and may be two timing."

"I-I don't mind since he wanted a harem."

"Oh god Issei you already corrupted Asia."

"The one corrupting her is you, Aika."

"Good afternoon class take a sit we be starting our class."

The teacher entered they class which cost everyone to take a sit while Aika looked at Issei as if saying 'it isn't over.' He only rolled his eyes and listen to the teacher. The next moment they went to take their PE class and when they went to the locker room Issei garnered his classmate attention.

The male student were quiet jealous at how well define his muscle showing every lines of it. Though the most noticeable are the scare that etch throughout his body.

"Dude where did you get those Scars and holy shit your buff!?"

"What have been doing lately?"

His two perverted ask not out of concern but curiosity which made Issei scoff internally. He couldn't use illusion magic or morph his body as the would was cause by Outer gods magic and power. It held the concept over time and space which is why even after travelling did not heal.

"You want to know what I've been doing?"

"Hell yeah I want to that kind bod to get chicks attentions."

"Agree."

"Then do ten kilometer run, a hundred sit up, push ups and squats."

He said quoting a popular manga from the future in serious expression making his friend jaw dropped.

"That's bullsh*it!"

"Yeah that's near impossible!"

"Suit yourself."

Issei wore his PE uniform noticing it was getting slightly tighter but ignore it and went outside the locker. He crack his neck doing few strength that cause all the female to stair at his body.

"Oh Issei I didn't expect for your body to grown this much? Have you been taking steroids lately?"

He heard his PE teacher question his mysterious growth spurt. It wasn't big of mind boggling change but it was enough for people notice.

"No, Sir I've just been doing a lot of exercise."

"That's great to hear! I hope to see your exercise regime if you can consider it as additional activity."

"Sure I'll write it down and sent it to you later."

Getting a nod from the teacher Issei turn to looked at Asia who stretching her body getting a lot of lecherous perverted. He isn't having any of their Bullsh*t and released a wisp of his killing intent that made them stopped.

Afterwards their teacher test giving them each exercise with the addition of doing kendo to help the club gain few more members.

"Follow my instructions."

Most of them are Amateur beside the one who already join the Kendo club like Murayama and Katase who help teach them. Issei took the wooden sword feeling nostalgic since Ascalon had been shattered when he fought the outer gods.

Wielding the blade he tried to focus his concentration that slowly cause the wooden blade to sharpen into real one. Issei was placing his essence which he learn after training from a master in another world. He explore countless worlds to find ways in defeating the outer gods.

'I have many things to do. I need to train my sacred gear, see what the abilities that is currently available in my True maou bloodline and the blessing of god but latter could come later when I meet Azazel'

"Amazing work keep it up! Oh Issei's you seem much better than the rest don't tell you've also training swordsmanship?"

"Ah sorry no. This is my first time to be honest."

It was a lie since in this timeline it was the first time he was using a sword a blade. His teacher only nodded continued their class.

After finishing their class, Issei and Asia head to ORC to perform their devil's work.

"Oh you here great, you two are going to do delivers."

"Alright. Hey Buchou you seem down?"

"Oh its nothing."

Issei only guess it was about Raiser. He thought of how to cheer her up and the only thing he knew is give her a new set of manga from her favorite manga author. Their many stored manga in his memory that he and Rias always watch when their alone.

Heading their way to take the delivery, Issei and Asia rode a bike enjoying their alone time together.

"Hey Issei-san."

"Hmm what is it, Asia?"

"I was wondering about Murayama-san. She told me about you going on date with her."

"Yeah I'm sorry if it seem out of place. I was concern since their something happened and she need help."

"Oh I see but…."

"But?"

"But I want a date too!"

"Hahaha sure thing my cute Asia-chan."

Asia blushes while Issei laugh as they zoom finishing their delivers and return to ORC being welcome by Rias. She quickly asked Asia about doing a summoner quest which Issei shut down he request.

He suggested to take the request which made Rias consider it and accepted. Issei then jumped at the teleportation circle expecting it was going to be Mil-tan like last time but no.

"Are you the devil? I expected more horns."

Issei scanned his surrounding and met with countless papers that contains a drawings recognizing them from a popular manga. He turn to looked at his summoner who was a middle age man wearing glasses while his hand contain a pencil.

'I didn't expect to meet Rias favorite manga artist huh?'

"Yes I'm the devil at your service anything you wish I am willing to do."

"Oh can you read my manga and tell me what you think?"
