While the news might have been happily accepted by the brunet at the idea of having such a cute girl around, I had to be the one breaking to them about some issues that will surely appear immediately with this development.

In the show it wasn't never mentioned what degree of education Asia had when she arrive in Japan, nor was said if she did frequent or not any of Catholic private schools that children in Catholic-owned orphanages were supposed to go.

Thus the first question I decided to ask he was what her last school experience was before being excommunicated. She had to ponder a little bit about it since the Italian school system was completely different from the Japanese one, but I managed to get a positive response.

First year of Lyceum.

The Italian Lyceum was technically the commonly-known high school in Italy, and so that meant that she was going to skip only a year worth of studies by being in the same course as Issei.

Not something truly dreadful to fae about but also something that was going to require some adjustments in the girl's homework for the sake of making her catch up with her soon-to-be peers.

And that was going to be a somewhat easy job thanks to my position within the School Council.

The foreign girl was humming happily as she continued to walk close to me, listening to the various information I was providing her about the school and the various sections of the buildings owned by the Academy

"So Issei-san is subscribed to the Occult Research Club," Asia inquired quietly. "Which is made by the other members of the peerage he is part of?"

"Correct."

I nodded and gave her a small smile back at her own.

"Rias Gremory is one of the two owners of Kuoh's grounds by Devils' laws. The other one is the current Student Council's president, Sona Shitori," I continued with my explanation. "Her real last name is 'Sitri' but she wants to be addressed either as 'Sona-san' and 'Shitori-san'. Since I'm part of the Student Council, I've to address her as Sona-taichou."

"Sona-...san. Okay!"

I was having a really hard time keeping the urge of patting her head right away, knowing that this was actually hindering my current job of helping her around. She was just so adorable, making me pray for said cute feature to never be weaponized and used against me.

After almost ten minutes of walking around and giving Asia a full look of how the Academy looked like inside, we both reached for the door that led to the classroom she was assigned to.

"Remember to not get distracted by Issei during the lessons and to take notes, no talking mid-lecture- Also, if Motohama and Matsuda try to do anything remotely perverted, say 'no' and get Ise to tell them off, okay?"

She nodded, a determined expression in her face that just conveyed all the cuteness someone like her could muster.

I blinked when my hand unconsciously went over her head, causing the blonde to look in surprise the moment it start to pat her golden locks. "But also remember to be at ease around the teachers and to indulge in asking them for help."

Her body tensed in surprise at the encouraging words, her eyes glowing a little and then- my own eyes widened in shock as I found myself with her arms wrapped around my torso, a giggle left her lips as she concluded the brief hug.

"Thank you for helping me around, Senpai," The girl squeezed tightly. "I do appreciate your kindness and support."

I chuckled. "Just avoid trouble, Asia-chan, and you will be super-fine."

A last round of giggles left her lips before she moved towards the door, knocking at it, and waiting for a response.

At the invite from the teacher to join inside, the former nun nodded and waved quickly at me as she finally entered inside the classroom.

I waited a few more moments, sighing in relief the very instant the door closed and I decided that it was time to go back in my own classroom.

I wonder how things were going for Rias now that she wasn't going to have Asia as her Bishop.

This divergence was going to leave her and her team dreadfully weaker compared to the Canon Peerage, especially when she will have to face Riser in the Rating Game.

Still, I was fairly sure that by having Ddraig more active so early on in the story and with Issei actively training with his mentoring to unlock the boy's untapped potential earlier than in Canon, would be more than enough to rebalance and even improve the current standing of her peerage in terms of raw power.

Sitting by my usual chair, the teacher started with the roll call as he would usually do at this stage of the day. I took out my notebook, a black-colored pen and my English textbook, ready to calmly go with what was supposed to be a normal day at the Academy.

But it was right as I looked up from my desk to give attention to the teacher's writings on the whiteboard, that I noticed almost instantly something very concerning.

Rias' cerulean eyes darted away the very moment she noticed that I was looking her way, my mind instantly screaming at the fact I had managed to catch her interest for some reason. I tried to not focus too much on her efforts to hide away what had just happened, turning my sight back to the teacher…

And found out that Akeno was still staring at me despite her King's uneasiness to glance at me.

While this would have been chilling because of her personality and all of the shenanigans it would have brought me, what truly made her stare the most dreadful to endure was the lack of her usual smile.

Instead she was giving me an analytical look, studying me from afar and…

That didn't bode well with me.

It was by the official room of the Student Council that I found some relief.
