Subtly hitting the ’N’ button, he turned to Asia. "Well, here we are Asia."
"Thank you so much for guiding me, Issei-san." Asia bowed to him, which made him blush slightly, as she was bowing a bit too deeply for what he felt he deserved.
"I-It was nothing, Asia." he scratched the back of his head bashfully before pulling himself together. "Listen Asia, I don’t know what’s going on here, but this whole situation is worrying me. I’ll be in the park where we met two days from now at around about the same time. If you want to speak to me, go there then and we’ll talk, OK?"
The nun looked at him shyly. "O-OK, Issei-san. I’ll...see you then?"
Why did she sound so hopeful? Was she lonely? Gah, she was just too damned cute!
"See you there." Issei smiled warmly at her. As she turned away, he muttered, "[Observe]" and then noticed another screen popping up.
You have encountered [Asia Argento]! You are [Well-Liked] by her!
Ohhhh...what a nice girl!
Shaking his head as he walked away, sneaking glances at Asia as she walked up the steps to the church as he did so, Issei really felt torn at this point. He had a really bad feeling that something bad was going to happen there, and he didn’t want a sweet girl like Asia near it at all. On the other hand, without revealing that he too had a Sacred Gear, he couldn’t help her without compromising his own safety.
He tried to distract himself by looking at Asia’s stats, some of which really surprised him.
Name: Asia Argento
Title: Excommunicated Holy Priestess
Level: 19
HP: 440
MP: 513
STR: 20
STA: 22
DEX: 17
INT: 27
WIS: 19 (-5 due to [Naïve])
LUK: 30
CHA: 50 (-5 due to [Depressed])
Special Status: [Aura of Purity], [Naïve], [Slight Dojikko], [Draconic Affinity], [Depressed], [Excommunicated]
Sacred Gear: [Twilight Healing]
Asia Argento was given over to the custody of the Catholic Church as a baby by her mother. Raised as a foundling, she took vows as a nun as soon as she was able. At some point during her childhood, she discovered that she possessed the rare Sacred Gear known as the [Twilight Healing], which is able to heal almost any wound. As such, she was treated as a holy woman by the Catholic Church. Unfortunately, she healed a wounded Devil recently, and was excommunicated as a result.
A vein beat a pulse on his head as Issei found himself glaring at the screen in front of him in anger. Excommunicated just because she healed a Devil?! What the hell?!
[Gamer’s Mind] activated!
Forcibly calmed down by his Sacred Gear, Issei took a deep breath, let it out slowly and started walking again, this time focusing his mind on the puzzle that was Asia’s situation. Something about the way she was excommunicated rang false with him.
Then it hit him: if Asia had been a Holy Priestess, then how could she have just stumbled upon a wounded Devil? Presumably she had been guarded around the clock, and wherever she went would have been on church grounds. Did holy ground affect Devils?
A quick check using the [Gamer’s Gear] said that yes, properly consecrated ground did indeed affect Devils, striking fear into them if the consecration was powerful enough, feeling mildly uncomfortable on a barely consecrated site. One of the last places Devils would go if wounded, in Issei’s opinion. To him that spoke of one thing about this situation.
It was a set-up. Asia had been tricked, deceived and betrayed.
In all likelihood, the Devil had deliberately wounded himself before placing himself/herself in Asia’s path in order to get her kicked out of the Church. Issei doubted that just getting Asia excommunicated was the Devil’s endgame though. Perhaps the Devil in question wanted to make her one of their Peerage? [Twilight Healing] would be an amazingly good addition to any Peerage if it worked on Devils.
’Something else to ask Gremory-sempai about the next time I speak to her.’ he thought icily. He’d examine Asia’s Special Status at another time; right now, he had a lot of aggression to work out. Bringing up the [Dungeon Locator], he set the course for the [Dwelling of Mages] Dungeon.
Unbeknownst to him, a pair of figures were watching him from atop some nearby buildings. One had long crimson hair reminiscent of Rias Gremory’s and was dressed in a black and white suit. The other was a girl with her hair tied up in twintails and dressed pink and white outfit you’d expect a Mahō Shōjo to wear.
"This is becoming intriguing, wouldn’t you say, Sera?" the man said to his companion.
"Yup! Thanks for inviting me to look in on him, ’Zechs-chan." the girl replied cheerfully. "If he hurts So-tan, though...!"
"Then you can introduce him to his own personal Ice Age." the man agreed placidly. "He seems to be going out of his way to keep our little sisters alive though, which we owe him for. Things are going to become pretty interesting over the next few weeks..."
