Chapter : 23

Naruto watched with an amused look on his face as Issei began scratching at his cheek, his confusion more than evident.

"Eh, not really. All this stuff about Devils and Angels and Fallen Angels is really too complicated for a normal high school student like me."

Everyone looked at Issei with a massive bead of sweat that literally looked like a drop of water forming on the side of their heads, Naruto especially. He might not be the sharpest kunai in the set, but even Naruto was not thatstupid. He could understand things so long as they weren't explained in an overly complicated way. Granted, he probably wouldn't have been able to make sense of Rias' lecture when he was 12, but that would have been more due to a lack of caring than anything else.

He hated listening to lectures.

Even Koneko was now staring at Issei like he was some kind of idiot (which he kind of was, though Naruto was being hypocritical in his thoughts).

No. Wait. Koneko was actually glaring at him because his inability to understand his situation had caused Naruto to stop petting her. Never mind.

"What about this girl," Rias decided to try a different approach and handed Issei a photograph she had grabbed from off the desk. Issei took the photo from her and looked at it.

"Yuuma-chan!?" He said in shock. Staring him in the face from within the confines of the photo was none other than the girl who tried to kill him... and suceeded. "Where did you get this!?"

"That's the girl that almost killed you and Naruto-kun," Rias told him. "She's actually a Fallen Angel."

"But then... this means she really does exist!"

"Yes," Rias nodded, "She really exists. I suspect she erased herself from everyone's minds to keep from being discovered."

"But then wait," Issei suddenly paused as he realized something. "If you know about Yuuma-chan, then that means..." he looked over at Naruto, who had gone back to petting a newly blissed out Koneko, stood up and pointed an accusing finger at the blond ass that he felt insanely jealous of. "You knew about Yuuma-chan all along! Didn't you!?"

"Took you long enough to figure out," Naruto smirked.

"Why did you tell me you didn't know her then!?" asked an angry and somewhat distraught Issei.

"Because I thought it would be funny."

The answer he received actually caused Issei to facefault. His face smacking into the ground, the lecherous high school student groaned at his misfortune.

He lifted his head a few seconds later to look at a slightly unsure Rias.

"So wait, you said you had reincarnated me as a devil after she killed me, right?" Rias nodded, still looking a bit concerned by how Issei was acting. "Then, then why did she try to kill me in the first place? I mean, I've never been involved in any of this Devil and Fallen Angel stuff before. So why me?"

"I suspect it's because you have a Sacred Gear," Rias explained as Issei stood back up. She looked very relieved to finally be getting down to one of the main topics she wanted to bring up. Just how things had taken so long to get to this point was beyond her.

"Sacred... Gear?" Issei frowned, his head lowering and his brows furrowed as he adopted a thoughtful pose. "I could have sworn I've heard that before."

Akeno decided to pick up some of the slack here and began explaining what a Sacred Gear was to Issei. "Sacred Gears are basically artifacts given to humans by the original God from the bible to enact miracles on earth. Only humans or human hybrids are born with Sacred Gears, though they can show up within the ranks of devils and angels if the human possessing the Sacred Gear is turned."

"Issei," Rias got the boy's attention as she pointed at him. "You have one of those Sacred Gears within you. A very powerful one if I'm not mistaken, which is the reason that Fallen Angel tried to kill you. Most likely, she was ordered to by the hire ups who feared whatever Sacred Gear you possess."

Issei stared at the red haired beauty for several long, silent moments.

Right before he exploded and took her words in an entirely wrong way.

"EH!?" The lecherous second year grabbed his crotch, which he was almost positive the girl was pointing to (she wasn't, but he thought she was). "I know I'm a super healthy and viral guy, but are you telling me that my penis is actually a super famous tool nicknamed The Sacred Gear!?"

Within his mind, Issei conjured up an image of various women coming to claim his 'Sacred Gear' for themselves. He saw them seeking it out, fighting over it, killing over it. Wars started simply because all the women in the world wanted his famous 'Sacred Gear'.

It would have been nice to see so many beautiful ladies fighting over his Sacred Gear, but if a war got started over him, then wouldn't his life be in jeopardy? Who knows how many women would fight over him and try to claim him for themselves. What if he ended up getting caught in the crossfire of one of those wars and was accidentally killed? What then?

As Issei's mind began taking a most unusual and lecherous turn, the others in the room watched the perverted boy's mind run rampant. No, really. There was actually a large viewing bubble that appeared over Issei's head and was showing his thoughts to all of them like it was some kind of movie.

Needless to say, the sweatdropping would not be stopping any time soon.

After the incident where everyone got an unwilling glimpse inside of Issei's mind, the group of Devils collectively agreed to forget about the incident all together. No one felt safe thinking about what they saw, the perversion that the newest member of the peerage possessed. Yes. It was much better to just pretend the whole 'viewing bubble' thing never happened. Safer for their sanity that way too.
