CHAPTER 10 – ASIA'S PROBLEMS (PART TWO)

After a few minutes after leaving Asia, I arrived at my lonely house and went inside only to find myself completely alone and with no one to greet me.

[Are you sad, host?]

"Yes" - I nodded.

[I don't understand, everything you've done so far has gone well for you and you've already gotten two wives, i don't understand human feelings but even I know you should be cheerful]

"You're right, I have two wives but none live with me" - I said.

[Host, each one has her obligations, they already said they would live with you in a while, you just have to be patient and wait]

"You're right, it's just that this house is very big and being alone sometimes is not good" – I said.

[You can only wait... although if you conquer Asia he may come to live with you as he did with Issey, you never know]

"Yes, you have reason, okay, I'll try" – I nodded.

[I'm glad to see that you are more lively but you must train your Gomu Gomu no mi, your mastery over the devil fruit is too little, you must continue to train]

"You're right, it's a bit late but I still have enough time to have dinner and train an hour or so" - I nodded.

After making some noodles, mainly because I had no idea of cooking, I started training for a while, my training was simple, push-ups, squats, sit-ups and a little futting, that just to train my physique, to train my power I had to improve my aim.

"Gear Second" - I said.

Suddenly, my whole body turned red and smoke started coming out of it, however, 5 seconds later it faded away leaving me tired.

[Host, the Gear Second is a great burden for your body]

"Yes, I have to improve it, today I could hold 5 seconds, yesterday I could only do it for 2, I'm improving" – I nodded.

That's right, yesterday after Akeno left I practiced a bit and reached the Gear Second, however, it was a great burden form my body and I could only hold it for 2 seconds before falling to the ground exhausted.

[Keep it up and remember not to waste energy, in a few days it will not be difficult for you to use it for an hour]

It's complicated but I can try.

...

A week later.

It had been a week since I introduced myself to the members of the occult club and during this time I must say that I had a great time, not only have I had a lot of sex with Rias and Akeno but my relationship with Asia and Koneko was already at the limit, a little more and I would get them.

Unfortunately Rias said that she would have to wait a few more weeks to move, she said she had some problems, apparently the three factions were going to hold a meeting in Kuoh very soon and she was very busy with preparations, damn it, it's that damn meeting where Vali fights against Issey, which means Kokabiel is about to appear, damn this sucks, I don't want to intervene but if the girls are in danger I will have no choice but to do so.

Regarding my training, I managed to keep the Gear Second for half an hour, the reason for this huge change is due to my body, after training my body and strengthening it with magic, I was able to keep my Gear Second much longer, it was all a matter of practice.

On the other hand my relationship with the boys of the club, with Kiba there was no problem, he was a good person and a good friend, the problem was Issey, although he was no longer so hostile to me, he was still somewhat aggressive and was punished by Rias many times for thar, seriously, Issey could not matter me less but he was still hostile with me, if he continues like this I'm afraid I won't be able to tolerate him anymore and i'll teach him a lesson, so that he doesn't mess with those who are superior to him and yes, the Issey at this point in the anime couldn't even use the Balance Breaker so beating me was only a dream for him.

Anyway, today was a day like any other but not quite the same, today I had an infallible plan, I wanted to end my relationship with Asia and for that I had been thinking of the perfect excuse for it, but in order to carry out my plan, we had to be alone, so I had to wait for lunchtime.

As always, Asia and I ate together, it was already our custom during this week, what about Issey? No idea, I don't know what the problem is with that.

"Hey Asia, can I ask you a favor?" – I asked as I ate.

"Sure, what do you need?" - she nodded.

"Well, I'll be honest, there are some things about math class that I didn't understand and since the exams are almost here I'd need someone to help me, do you mind coming to my house and helping me?" – I asked.

Asia looked at me and blushed, I don't know what this girl was thinking.

"S-Sure, if you're okay with me, I'll do it" - she said.

That surprised me.

What Kazuya didn't know is that a curious thing happened a few days ago.

The day after Kazuya met Issey, Rias rejected him, leaving Issey devastated.

...

Days ago.

"I'm sorry Issey but I can't go out with you" - Rias said.

Issey stood in place for a few seconds, his brain didn't seem to properly process Rias's words or something.

"Excuse me President, can you repeat it? I don't think I heard correctly" - Issey said.

"Issey, this is also complicated for me, don't make it harder, sorry but I can't go out with you" – Rias said again.

"Why, don't you love me?" - asked Issey as he clenched his fists tightly.

"Yes, it's hard for me to say but I really don't love you, I'm sorry Issey" - Rias said.

Despite being completely in love with Kazuya, Rias was still hurt by having to say such a thing, not because she had feelings for Issey but because she didn't want to make him sad but there was no other way to do it, now her husband was Kazuya and she was in love with him from the bottom of her heart.

"President, I thought that after Riser's incident..." – Issey tried to say.

"Believe me, I'll never be able to thank you for that" - Rias said.

"Then...!" – said Issey hopefully.

"I'm sorry Issey, don't make it harder" - Rias denied.

He was pale, he didn't know why Rias had rejected him, the attitude that she had shown her the opposite than before, she even offered him her virginity before Riser's incident, so why did she now say that? Issey wanted to be the Harem's King but he wanted Rias to be his first wife and was unwilling to give up.

"I see..." – said Issey.

"I'm really sorry" - Rias said.

"Don't worry president, I will strive to be a better man for you and make you fall in love with me, i have no doubts" - Issey said confidently.

But Rias frowned, Why did she have that it will be so difficult? She didn't want to hurt him and was trying to tell Issey tactfully so she wouldn't get too sad but Issey believed that she had a chance with her and she can't allow that, for her, Kazuya is her everything and she doesn't want a slob next door who is trying to show her his good side all the time so that she would fall in love with him.

"Issey, I didn't want to hurt you and that's why I didn't tell you... but I'm actually in love with another man so I would appreciate it if you didn't try anything with me, please" - Rias said.

Issey was static hearing those words, his mind was a mess and he couldn't process the words, even Ddraig tried to comfort him but Issey didn't respond, it's as if his mind could only think of the words he had just heard from Rias.

"I know it's tough Issey but I'm going to marry him in the near future... I didn't want to tell you yet but you haven't left me a choice" - Rias said sadly.

She knew that by rejecting him in this way, Issey would become depressed, but what could she do? She already tried hard and Issey didn't want to leave her, she didn't want Kazuya to misunderstand her relationship with Issey, she had to set the record straight.

"Can I know who it is at least?" - asked Issey as tears streamed down his eyes.

His pain was such that he couldn't help crying but he could still keep talking while in his mind, Ddraig struggled to comfort him without success.

"I'm sorry Issey, I can't tell you who is he but in the future you will know, we both decided to wait until we finished high school to get married, I'm sorry" - said Rias.

"I see... I'm sorry president but I have things to do and probably tomorrow too so I won't be able to go to the club" - Issey said, turning his back on her.

"Don't worry, I know it's hard, take all the time you need" - Rias said.

With these words, Issey left leaving Rias alone in the place, however, suddenly Asia appeared, apparently she had seen Issey crying while she was waiting for Kazuya to leave the club to go home together and approached to see what happened.

"President, what happened, what happened to Issey-san?" – asked Asia worriedly.
