Its the early hours of the next morning Rossweisse could be seen sleeping in the passenger side of the car while issei was driving to Kyoto, Rossweisse asked him to drive slowly and by the speed limit he obliged and drove nicely to make her feel more comfortable
Issei: "Hey Ddraig"
Ddraig: yes partner what can I do for you?
Issei: " I want your honest opinion on something that's been nagging me at the back of my head"
Ddraig: if it relates to your feelings towards your parents then what of it
Issei: "Did I do the right thing leaving the family like I did, I've thought about it sure maybe I overreacted but in all fairness, they did start it first in terms of emotionally neglecting me "
Ddraig: I'm not sure how to relate I never had parents I was an energy that was manifested by something and I've lived on since its like that for all dragons if Vritra had his memories would tell you the same thing Albion included we no not of our origins but we have been alive for millennia and will forever be alive till we vanish from existence
Issei: " well that was interesting but I didn't need so much as a relation but my actions do you think I was right or wrong "
Ddraig: neither right nor wrong
Issei:....
He stopped the car on the side of the road and just got out of the car Rossweisse slowly opened her eyes and saw they had stopped and looked to see that Issei isn't in the car anymore and that he's looking over the edge of the barrier of the road, she got out the car and walked to him
Rossweisse: something wrong?
Issei: sorry if I woke you up I'm just trying to figure out something
She came closer and saw that they could see the city lights below them and since they were so high up it looked so small
Rossweisse: (amazed) woah
Issei: its nice hey
Rossweisse: I've never seen it like this before, last time we took a bullet train I would have loved to see this
Issei: me and you both
Rossweisse: so what's on your mind I may not be all-knowing but I could help you never know
Issei: don't worry about it, its alright we are about 4 hours out from getting to yasaka lets get going
Rossweisse:(concerned) sure but first
She took out her phone and took a few photos with Issei and sent it to the group with all of them
The one that stood out the most to him was the one where she pulled him close to her and they looked like a couple, he's never seen her smile like that before once she was done they got back into the car and took off again driving down the road
Rossweisse put on the radio and to their surprise, one of isseis songs was playing, he had made it to the most played song in the past week
Issei: to think the walls did that well
Rossweisse: hmm, hey do you have any other songs no one has heard of?
Issei: don't tell Rias or Irina it's a song I'm still conflicted on
Rossweisse: I promise
He took his phone and quickly made sure that the road was alright and slowed down enough and then took his phone and played the beat and started singing
When he was done Rossweisse just looked at him with complete shock
Rossweisse: wow I'm speechless, but it's not for just Rias is it
Issei just shook his head indicating she was right
Rossweisse: you still feel bad about it
He nodded and took a deep breath
Rossweisse: well I know I'm not one to talk but with everything that happened I see it as a good thing in the end think about it my ideal thought about even being a relationship is knowing each other to the point I would be able to see that they upset or have troubles, which they didn't see and only realized till it was too late and then that's when everything really broke down
Issei: I guess your right
Rossweisse: and the same goes for your parents I'm not entirely sure but even with your parents, I was readying a book to finish my degree in teaching so I can actually be qualified and not have the fake that Azazel made for me, but while I was studying I came across a section called emotional detachment in parents, its when they slowly stop showing signs of affection and it affects the child's mind to the point where they just want to leave the house entirely and cut them off from their life, tendencies shows, unsure about certain topics such as love friends life choices, or just keeping relationships in general, even showing affection will feel difficult in some types and towards parents its very similar because you don't even want to talk to them, I can see you have a few problems surrounding the matter
Issei: hmmm
Rossweisse: sorry if I upset you
Issei: you didn't it's just you described a lot of what's going on
Rossweisse: oh I see, would you like me to change topics or..
Issei: I'm not sure its a lot to think about because I felt like it was just me or something wasn't feeling right
Rossweisse: I suppose I should say that in most cases they found that people cant commit to a relationship but yet you and Irina have been perfect almost like you would have been cut off if she didn't step up like she did
Issei: I suppose you're right I would have just left and never come back it was a serious thought I had but she keeps me grounded and keeps thoughts from affecting me
Rossweisse: which is good because you need someone who will be by your side no matter the change
Issei: Lucky me then huh
Rossweisse: it's perfectly normal in human behavior and im thinking of her being with you day in and day out was a good thing because if she wasn't that good of an influence then we wouldn't be talking about it now
Issei: hmmm
Rossweisse: it's still good to have talks with people it helps get over the trauma
Issei: the question now is do I let them back in or keep it as it is
Rossweisse(falling asleep) it's your choice, not mine follow your heart and hope for the best
She fell asleep and was lightly snoring issei smiled at her, sleeping in someone's car is the ultimate form of trust he's seen Ravel and Irina sleep in the car but now Rossweisse, it was a good feeling
Ddraig: perhaps the Valkyrie shed the light you were looking for
Issei: "She kind of did but im still not sure "
Ddraig: see after the treatment it's meant to be enriching so you might be able to have a clear mind
Issei: then we will have to see as we move
They drove for another hour and Issei saw a restaurant and stopped to get some breakfast, as he got out of the car he saw his breath
Issei: looks like winter is going to be a cold one
He walks inside and sees the menu
Issei: i'll take two of those please with some orange juice, please
Cashier: It will be ready in a few, issei *smiling*
Issei smirked then just stood by the till and turned around it was empty but his focus was on Rossweisse in his car alone he may not look like it but he was watching her like a hawk, he wasn't going to let her feel like she's in danger while they are here
While he was watching the car the waiter came and gave him the food to go and then he went to the car to wake up Rossweisse he gently woke her up and saw he had food for them she then saw the coat he had on and put on hers as she got out the car she felt the cold breeze rush her body
Rossweisse(shivering) what a way to wake up for the day
Issei: it's not to bad honestly
Rossweisse: says the fire dragon
Issei: any other day I would have said im not but I am now, Im still not used to it yet
Rossweisse: I thought as much
Issei: anyway come sit the food still hot
Rossweisse: oh what did you get us
Issei: some egg ommlet and bacon bites with fruit juice
Rossweisse: alright how much do I owe you?
Issei: free of charge my treat
Rossweisse: if you insitst
They sat down to eat and it was nice not as good as the home-cooked meal but a nice meal regardless, Rossweisse decided to take another picture as an update to the group they didn't see the last one but she sent a picture of the breakfast with issei taking a bite and sent it
Issei: sending pictures to update them on things
Rossweisse: yes I feel just sending a message wouldn't do much justice in the end so doing it like this will show that you're still in good spirits
Issei: I see...
Rossweisse: hey you know the cashiers in the restaurant behind you are taking photos of us right
Issei: (deep breath) let them I don't care right now
Rossweisse: if you say so
Issei: hey thanks for earlier
Rossweisse: what do you mean?
Issei: I wasn't in the right state of mind and you helped validate my feelings, but I think i'll have a talk with them when we get back and give them a chance again but ill see how I feel after the treatment because its meant to be an enriching thing so I should be able to make the choice then
Rossweisse: glad to be of help ise
Issei: you ready to go?
Rossweisse: um let me see... let me go to the bathroom first I'm sure we going straight there and no stops
Issei: more or less
Rossweisse: ill be right back
She walked into the restaurant and the staff came up to her
Girl: (excited) hey is he your boyfriend?
Rossweisse: no we just super close friends, please excuse me
She quickly left before a blush appeared on her face and they caught her out
The girls smiled and posted the pictures to the internet and they were gaining traction
With issei outside
Ddraig: those bacon bites looked nice
Issei: I've been wondering something can you actually eat or are you satisfied with what I eat
Ddraig: I'm touched the first human to offer me food but to be fairly honest I wouldn't know in the slightest if I can eat or not it has never been tried
Issei: well how about we mess around and see if we can get you some food
Ddraig: It's worth a shot I'm willing to try it out
Issei: might as well go to the bathroom as well just to be sure
After going to the bathroom all both Rossweisse and Issei got into the car and drove off again
It was around 6 am and thy planned to be there by 8 so Issei put on music and was singing and Rossweisse joined in as well they sang the whole way there, once they reached the temple issei drove up slowly, he knew no human would ever find this place and then he got out with Rossweisse who clung to him for warmth walked to the door and knocked
After a few moments, they slowly opened
???:(tired) who is it
Issei: hi princess how are you this morning *smiles*
Her eyes grew large and then she shut the door and ran to her room to look presentable, Rossweisse and Issei looked at each other and started giggling at the princess's actions, with all the commotion yasaka was woken up and she let them in and tea brought for them Kunou slowly came back blushing
Kunou: sorry for my actions it wasn't my intention to be rude
Yasaka : good to see that you were rude
Kunou:(embarrassed) im sorry
Issei: don't sweat the small stuff now come give me a hug I know you want to
She was shocked and then her tails went on end and she ran to him and gave him a hug and snuggled into his chest
Yasaka: so as much as im delighted to see you again issei what brings you here
Issei: you see yasaka before we met I used a power I had no control over and used up most of my life force I had a near-death experience and I was ready to die that day but didn't but now that I'm back to peak health again almost I would like to regain my life force I know it's a lot to ask but it was either you or another sage user that I know would take advantage of the situation which could end up with me being hurt more so I please ask for your assistance
Yasaka: Kunou please go and prepare for your lessons later I need to discuss something with Red Dragon Emperor as adults
Kunou: (sad) Yes mother
She looked upset that she had to be sent away
Issei: hey I have a car now we can go get ice cream later okay
She smiled and nodded and ran off
Rossweisse:" When was he so good with kids"
Yasaka: I am more than willing to assist you with this I'm sure you are already aware of the process.
issei:... I do, is there another method that we could use first, out of respect for you I want to try another way first
yasaka: well bed room arts are the most effective picture of being intimate with entwining our souls together to fix yours, other methods are better to be explained as just touching or holding the soul and that's the type of limitation that won't make the others as effective as you want them to be
issei: (deep breath) I'm okay with it if you are
yasaka: the only thing that I wish to ask is to be gentle it would be my first time since conceiving Kunou
issei choked on his spit and started blushing heavily, Rossweisse wasn't feeling any better
Rossweisse: I think that's my cue to leave you guys to do your things
issei: I guess so, you can get your bags from the car it's unlocked I'll see you later
he placed the keys In her hands and she left quickly
yasaka:(chuckling) Hmmm so I was right she likes you
issei: really? If anything, we are good friends
yasaka: think about it you had so many girls that are with you why wouldn't she be any less is she not to your liking?
issei: no it's not that it's just I'm going through a lot right now and it doesn't help me much
yasaka: what happened
issei told her everything about what happened and how he nearly died and it was because of his loved ones he told yasaka about talking to Irina and how she's not against the harem thing but wants him to fully think about everything before just having more partners and then I get hurt again
yasaka: well before we get started how about we have a meditation course first, It's best if you start stripping
issei(light blush) right
she slowly took off her kimono and Issei could see her beautiful figure in all its glory she was stunning but seeing this part of her beauty made him get hard for the first time in a long while
she slowly walked over to him she saw his member and smiled at him
yasaka: first off I want you to relax your mind, I know what happening now but first clear your mind
he sat and closed his eyes and then he could feel her moving her hands around his body all the scars and damage that it has been through
yasaka: listen to my voice make it the only thing that you focus on
issei did as he was told, and she could feel him becoming more relaxed as they went on
yasaka: good now breathe in and breathe out
she sat behind him, and he could feel her breast pushing against his back sending a warm rush through his body
What Yasaka is actually doing is healing his body, as a sage user she can see the cracks that break the body that others can't, so using sage magic on his body he starts to relax and feel better and not feel uncomfortable in any which way or form
yasaka: you can open your eyes now issei
He slowly opened his eyes and saw her face looking at him
yasaka: I healed your body further, most beings of power cannot see the cracks on one's body that cause them to break
she touched his shoulderblade
yasaka: how does that feel not like it's going to snap if you push it too much does it
issei:(surprised) No it doesn't, it feels good again
yasaka: good
she slowly came to him and kissed his check
yasaka : your body knows what to do just follow the flow and it will all be alright
he came in for a kiss on the lips and they fell back onto the ground in each others embrace
outside
Rossweisse: (blushing) whooo its getting hot again
she walked to the car took their bags and saw the children playing
???: my child don't forget about love it's something that completes our souls and gives us a purpose to live another day if you find it treasure it
Rossweisse: Granny don't talk about stuff like that
???: i'll stop when you bring me a great grandchild
Rossweisse broke into blush and realized that she was still standing by the car then took their bags out and took them to their room
As she walked in she noticed something
Rossweisse:(blushing) Why is there one bed?
*buzz* *buzz*
She looked at her phone and saw it was a video call
Rias: hello Rossweisse how are you today we saw the pictures
Irina: How is Kyoto? From the photos looks cold
Rossweisse: oh you said I took one of Isseis jackets from the car because mine wasn't enough and when we stopped for breakfast he forget he's a fire dragon and said it's not as cold while im freezing my butt off
They all started giggling
Akeno: What does your room look like
Rossweisse: well we just got here a few minutes ago and um well issei and yasaka are already doing their thing so I brought the bags to the car and the room she gave us has only one big bed
She showed off the room
Irina: well it's not to bad issei does sleep with a wall between us most nights so he might do that if you don't have a problem with sharing a bed
Rossweisse: not particularly but it's a first for me so I'm not sure if I should do anything first
Ravel: I wouldn't stress about it honestly
Xenovia: so what do you have planned for today or are you going to spend it in bed staying warm
Rossweisse: I saw a few adverts about some sales on clothes so I might check it out sooner or later but for now I think im going to get some tea and maybe a muffin and freshen up a bit
Asia: well you are there for a week or two so don't rush anything
Koneko: im just thinking Issei is busy right now why not just take a walk around and see if there is anything of interest you would like to do like a restaurant or park
Rossweisse: not a bad idea, oh let me know if you see pictures of Issei and me on the internet, when we sat down for some breakfast some girls were taking photos of us two together
Ravel: WHAT oh hell no, I don't need pictures of him on the internet its bad for business
She left the call and the girls giggled
Irina: she is busy looking around for them, but let us know what happens okay
Rossweisse: of course *smiling*
They put down and Rossweisse went to freshen up in the bathroom
With Irina
She was sitting looking sad
Ravel: everything alright
Irina: I know that I can't right now but I wish I had his first time
Ravel spat out her tea and looked shocked
Ravel: you're upset about that, Irina I'm sorry but it would have happened sooner or later and we both know it, you would have been the last to have sex with him and he still wouldn't do it because he would hate himself if you become a fallen angel it was something you worked hard for and he will feel like he took away everything from you
Irina: I know it's just still I want to marry him but it's still a feeling im sure any girl would have if her loved one had sex with someone else but not you
Ravel: I know it's a long shot but why not see if Michael could make some sort of exception to allow you and Issei to be intimate and not fall, I'm thinking about it a holy dragon in your ranks will be very beneficial
Irina: huh never thought about it like that
Ravel: because you not thinking wide enough like yours truly
Irina: (holding back a laugh)
Ravel:(confused) what's funny
Irina: (holding back a laugh) you said im not thinking wide enough think about it
Ravel: (embarrassed blushing) Hey I told you that in confidence don't make fun of my head
Irina: (holding laugh) im not you the only one bringing up the wide things
The two burst out laughing at each other
Back with issei
He could be seen lying next to yasaka holding her in his arms
Issei: (out of breath) holy crap that was amazing
Yasaka : (out of breath) I'm so tingly, my legs still feel like jelly
Issei: glad I was good enough *phew*
Yasaka: if you're having doubts about your performance then you were perfect and nothing lower nothing better than perfect wouldn't change a thing
Issei: im glad
Yasaka: come with me to the baths we still have a day to get through
Issei: want me to carry you like we just got married
Yasaka: you know how to make a lady feel special
They went to the bath and just cuddled in the water for a few minutes then once they got dressed they went out to greet everyone
Kunou came running to Issei and she hugged him again tightly
Issei: hey what's wrong
Kunou: nothing I just want to give you a hug I missed you a lot *smiles*
Issei: right we can get ice cream when your mother says you finished your teachings for today alright
Kunou: okay I can do that *smiles*
Yasaka: feel free to walk around the area when you are here it's your home too
Issei: sure thing *smiles*
He let Kunou down and she and her mother left he went to his room to find Rossweisse sitting in bed reading a book
Rossweisse: oh your back, I must ask how was it to be with one of the most beautiful women in the universe
He fell face-first into the pillow next to her turned to his side and faced her with a goofy smile
Issei: im in bliss
Rossweisse(laughing)I would say well done, but the fact you tired and I can see the amount of love bites around your neck shows it was a good time
Issei: yea let's not talk about those right now
Rossweisse(chuckling) sure thing
Issei: so what did you have planned for today?
Rossweisse: well I was going to relax for the rest of today I went for a walk and saw a few stores im going to go to tomorrow but other than that what did you have In mind
Issei: treating you yasaka and Kunou to dinner
Rossweisse: what's the occasion?
Issei: because I feel like it plus I never got to celebrate much when I was told I was made high class, but couldn't get the rank because im not a devil anymore
Rossweisse:(shocked) oh yea I forgot about that tell me about it
Issei: well...
He explained how he was awarded the rank after his fight but since he freed himself but they were ready to make him a devil again but he ultimately decided not to since he is free to do as he pleases now, but he still got his rank regardless
Issei: and that's all she wrote
Rossweisse: well that was interesting, to say the least but still congrats
Issei: thanks *smiles*
Rossweisse: then where do you have a place in mind for dinner
Issei: im thinking something fancy but not too fancy there are a lot of stores and restaurants here, and the food is always good
Rossweisse: All alright then so what are you going to do for the rest of the day?
Issei: well I don't know if you noticed or not but I started producing a bit of fire when I fought Sairaorg so I want to see what I can do with that, but later today a new song of mine will be dropped so you will see it on tv and on the radio too
Rossweisse: oh what's its name so I know
Issei: If I'm correct its called parasite and the other bleed
Rossweisse: interesting names
Issei: well the song was made when I was still angry and what I felt at the time, the producers say that the songs should do very well so I said sure
Rossweisse: well if they liked it so much then I can only assume that it's good and probably catchy
Issei: well im going to go and play with fire be ready around 4 ish for dinner
Rossweisse: All alright enjoy and don't overwork yourself
Issei walked through the land and all the yokai children came running to him to greet him as the red dragon emperor
Child 1: red dragon what are you doing here again are we in danger?
Issei: no you not in danger im on holiday you see I was hurt in my last fight and Lady Yasaka is busy healing me so I can fight better
Child 2 wow that's so cool, so are you going to go and train now
Issei: Yeah actually do you know a place where I can have open space
Child 3: yea follow us
He followed the children and saw the open field it was wide enough to use large fire attacks and not damage the forest surrounding them
Issei: Perfect
Child 4: red dragon can we watch?
Issei: sure why not you probably just going to laugh at me
Child1: whys that
Issei: I have no idea what im doing so it's probably going to blow up in my face
Child3: that's alright we still want to watch our hero train
Issei nodded and walked to the centre and sat down and meditated
Issei:" Ddraig alright help me out here buddy"
Ddraig: hmm let me see I think dawn the armour and first see if any changes were made
Issei :sure
The children watched as the armour appeared on his body but then changed to scales growing around his body giving the armour a new shape, he looked at the scales and could see small embers leaving his body, the heat from the fire was a clam yet dangerous feeling as he felt it run around his body
Issei: so It's clear I have a boost in fire now
Ddraig: hmm I feel it flowing around your body, try to focus on the power within and see if you can bring it out
Issei: OK on it
He closed his eyes and felt the heat moving around his body and forced it to his hands then his hands caught alight and the fire was bouncing around in his hands
Issei: woah this looks cool, but now how can I use it
Ddraig: try it on the sword
Issei pulled out asculon and tried to make it catch alight and it only started sparking and nothing else
Issei: um that's new, let me see if I swing it around
He sliced down and it made a huge slice of fire and hit a nearby try and left a massive cut in it with a bit of burn damage to
Issei: oh sh...shoot um that looks like it can be used a lot if I use it properly
Ddraig: agreed
Issei powered down the armour
Issei: okay kids don't freak out this is new I want to see if I can bring it out again
Child1: what do you mean?
Issei: just watch okay
They nodded in excitement
Issei: you ready
Ddraig: well it has never been done before so I wouldn't know
He closed his eyes and forced all his power to bring out this transformation he could feel the scales and tail growing and his teeth getting sharper, he burst into flame and the transformation took full form he let off a roar and it alerted some of the adults and they came running to see the large creature in front of the children
Adult 1: WHAT IS THAT?
Children: (happy) IT'S THE RED DRAGON EMPEROR
The form was huge it was on the taller side of things, he looked at his body and it felt normal, but like this, his magic was completely different, the flow had changed and it felt better, it felt stronger and his old techniques were weaker than this
Issei: well this is different
He dropped the form and looked at his body, it was weird the feeling of his magic changing didn't change it stayed like it was
Ddraig: it seems to have fully unlocked a new permanent power-up for you, it's a good thing that we only tried this when nothing big was going on
Issei: true but first things first
He tried using another power and his right arm turned white with a blue gem then it turned into scales and like his red gauntlet was
Issei: looks like power form vali would be able to do the same if he tried
Ddriag: we keep it to ourselves we don't want the white one to get stronger
Issei: agreed, but let's see how far I can go, let's see if I can still use the dragon blasters like this
He focused and the blaster took form around the front of his arm it was smaller than when he uses them on his wings
Issei: wait a second if I can do it like this could I...
He made it go away and put his hands together and it made a super large blaster that looked like it could completely destroy the enemy
Issei: Oh, I'm so abusing the hell out of this
He thought of how he used his tail now and then and its blaster turned into his tail
He was able to use it like a whip and then he got creative and added his fire to the whips and they made a cracking sound with each hit
Issei: I think that's enough for today I don't need to use up all my magic energy but I have so many ideas now and I think my armours have a new set design as well
Ddraig: you are pushing the limits of your powers every day I'm impressed
He looked to the side and saw the kids parents looking at him
Issei: so kids how was that
kids: that was so cool
Issei: All alright lets get back before your parents get upset, they already look upset, im sorry
Kids(happy) okay
They took their parents away and he shrugged and walked behind them while they ran in front of him laughing and copying the things they saw him do now he smiled as they played in front of him as they arrived back at the temple he saw yasaka and Kunou walking out, when he looked at yasaka she was more covered up and showing less of her body, as he got closer to them they smiled at him
Kunou ran to him and he picked her up
Issei: were you good and finished your training?
Kunou: yes, I finished my work and I was good
Issei: then we can get ice cream, but before that yasaka Kunou would you like to come to dinner with me?
Yasaka: what's the occasion?
Issei: I just feel like celebrating
Yasaka: we would love to *smiles*
Issei: it's going to be a public place would you like to go in your traditional clothing or would you like to change? It's your choice
Yasaka: perhaps to blend in a bit we wear more natural attire to not stand out as much
Issei: if it works for you I have no issues
Kunou: (excited) Let me go get changed quickly
He let her go
Issei: I've noticed you are more covered up than normal
Yasaka: well you are my lover now my body is only for you to see
Issei came and gave her a kiss and she kissed back
Issei: well then I have no issues with that but I have to go and fetch Rossweisse ill back to fetch you two in a few minutes I still need to freshen up
Yasaka: don't take too long lover
Issei: never *smiles*
He quickly went to his room to freshen up and put on a black shirt with black pants as he got out of the bathroom he saw Rossweisse in a dark blue dress that complemented her figure extremely well
Issei: wow...
Rossweisse:(blushing) So I'm assuming I look good
Issei: good doesn't even begin to cover it.
Rossweisse(blushing) thank you issei
Issei: come on lets go
They walked to the temple again and found yasaka and Kunou waiting for them, yasaka wore a dress that made her look even better with her hair tied up differently which made him shocked even more, Kunou had on a dress herself it was cute it suited her with the frills and all
Issei: you two look amazing
Both: thank you issei *smiles*
Issei: now then ladies who is going to sit in front?
Rossweisse: yasaka may sit in front I don't mind
Issei: are you sure?
Rossweisse: positive *smiles*
Issei: well alright then
He moved the seat so Rossweisse and Kunou could get in
Issei: Rossweisse do you mind helping Kunou with her seat belt
Rossweisse: sure of course
As she was helping Kunou be strapped in he let yasaka get in and she hid her tails and got comfy in the passenger seat
He helped her get strapped in being both their first time being in a car
He started the engine, and both were amazed
Issei: All alright let's go
He carefully pulled away and then once on the road he started speeding he could hear Kunou laughing and the same could be said for yasaka she was just laughing while Rossweisse couldn't help but laugh as well
As they came by the restaurants they slowed down
Issei: and how was it
Yasaka: it was one of the best things I have experienced in my lifetime thank you
Kunou: it was so fun I want to do it again.
Issei: maybe when there's less traffic
They stopped at the restaurant and entered issei ordered the food and because of his newfound fame they let them have some starters which they enjoyed
The night went smoothly with some kids and adults coming to greet Issei he let the kids take some photos with him and all, and they ended the night with ice cream and Kunou falling asleep on isseis lap, it's clear she enjoyed the night he drove them home and they all went to sleep when he got into bed he didn't expect Rossweisse to snuggle up to him and just hold him in his sleep
Issei: "Maybe this time things will be better"
Chapter end-
