Date

Issei stood in front of the mall as he waited for his date to appear.

He dressed up for the occasion, wearing a grey open cardigan over his black shirt. He continued to check on his phone, until finally, his date had arrived.

"Issei!"

The girl exclaimed as she ran towards him.

She had a slender body with a large bust. Her attire consisted of a short black dress with a small, light purple jacket on top, which revealed a large portion of her cleavage.

Issei thought it was a pity that she obviously had some ulterior motives to approach him. In his last life, he definitely was not an innocent person, and had no problems getting it on with a woman, especially if the woman was as fine as this girl.

"Good morning, Yuuma!" Issei responded with enthusiasm, acting like a boy excited for his first date.

"Sorry. Have you been waiting for long?"

"No, I just got here, myself."

They exchanged pleasantries while they walked towards the mall. Issei had extensive experience when it came to interacting with woman, and soon had Yuuma in an in-depth conversation with him, weaving tales to keep her interested and creating jokes to make her laugh.

This was also used to prod at her mask, so he could see her true emotions. There were times that Issei intentionally brushed up against her, which caused her to make an expression of disgust which quickly flipped back into her normal face.

They explored many places, starting with a clothing store, where Yuuma tried on various dresses, and ending at a diner, where they ate sundaes together. Issei closed the physical distance between them the entire time.

The sun began to set, as Issei and Yuuma walked towards a water fountain located in the middle of the park, both holding hands with a smile on their faces.

As they arrived, Yuuma detached her hand from his and ran towards the fountain, before turning around with her arms wide open.

"To commemorate our first date, would you mind doing something for me?" said Yuuma, with a sickeningly sweet smile on her face.

It was obvious something was going to happen, but Issei just smiled and questioned her back.

"W-what is it that you'd like?" Issei stammered, like a blushing teenage boy, the chip affecting his body to make the act even more realistic.

She quickly approached him, a dark smile appearing on her face as she said

"Would you die for me?"

Issei pretended to not hear her and replied with

"Sorry Yuuma, but could you say that again? Something must be wrong with my ears."

She closed the distance between them, her mouth moving next to his ear, as she repeated her previous sentence with a look of glee.

"Would you die for me?"

She spread out her arms, expecting something to happen, but nothing happened at all. A stunned expression appeared on her face.

"Sorry, was something supposed to happen?" Issei questioned innocently, yet the expression on his face was far from innocent.

"What did you do?!?" she screamed as she repeated the motion over and over again. Yuuma began to panic as she realized that she couldn't lift her Transformation magic and return to her Fallen Angel form.

She held both her hands out, trying to gather her Light energy and form her Light weapon, but nothing appeared.

"Why should I reveal that to you? After all, it's my turn to ask questions now." Issei responded, as a red light soon blinded Yuuma.

Yuuma watched as a red gauntlet appeared on Issei's hand and laughed bitterly. To think that she went through all that effort for a Twice Critical, the weakest Dragon type Sacred Gear. In her full form, she wouldn't need to worry, yet with her powers mysteriously gone, even a trash Sacred Gear could actually kill her.

So, Yuuma did what a smart person would do in her position and ran. She bolted away, running from the center of the park as fast as possible. She ran and she ran, right into a barrier, that is.

Her face met the wall of invisible force, as she fell backwards with a groan. She looked behind her and saw Issei, who appeared right behind her with the form of a professional running athlete.

Issei walked up to her with a kind appearance, yet his face looked like the grim reaper's.

"It's useless to try to escape. Just stay still and obediently answer my questions, or face the consequences" Issei said gently, yet the threat in his words was obvious.

It was actually true, as there was no way for her to escape. He had sealed the center of the park with spatial Sealing Magic, basically stopping her from leaving. Especially since she no longer had access to her powers, as he had sealed that too.

While they were holding hands, Issei had silently sealed her powers from right under her nose, the complex seals locking her into her human form and making her abilities out of reach.

This was what he had learned by analyzing the seal on his red gauntlet, the complex spell models that he had copied using his A.I. chip.

"Now, let's get back to those questions, shall we?"
