Sirzechs was sitting on her bed thinking to herself. 'Okay girl, so today has been a very huge success. First, I was able to watch a movie with Issei. Second, I was able to understand that his dreams are similar to mine. Finally, I was able to steer the steering wheel and make Issei land on top of me. It was so funny seeing him get flustered.'

Grayfia opened the door to see Sirzechs hugging her pillow while staring at her phone. "Issei really got you thinking about him constantly."

Sirzechs screamed in fear before glaring at Grayfia, "You should have told me that you were entering the room."

"And not scare you? Yeah, no thanks."

"Anyways, I just wanted to let you know, if Issei ever asks to visit your home, let him know that you live very far and that your house is being redone."

"What? I understand that I shouldn't allow him to enter my house since the only way to enter from the human world is to teleport here. However, telling him some ridiculous lies would be dishonest."

Grayfia sat right next to Sirzechs and explained, "Think about it this way. If you say you're from out of town, he will feel bad and think more highly of you for showing up to hang out with him knowing how far you live. If you also say your house is being redone, then he wouldn't want to show up to not disturb anything being done in the house."

Sirzechs, when hearing that she would be able to make Issei think of her more highly, nodded her head and sinisterly grinned, "Maybe lying is a good thing."

"If he asks you for your age, then let him know that you're 20."

Actually, this reminded Sirzechs of a concern that she has been having and it continues to grow. Sirzechs is known to be one of the most powerful beings in the world and known to have countless enemies that would do anything to destroy her. If Issei is seen with her, then there is no telling what her enemies would do to gain an advantage on her. Sirzechs didn't care as much about herself but rather the safety of Issei. He was just a simple, innocent, and clumsy boy that didn't deserve the harm.

"Grayfia, do you have any small teleportation circles that could transport me to Issei whenever he needs my help?"

Grayfia looked confused in why she would randomly ask her this, but when looking at the concern on her face, Grayfia connected the dots within seconds and nodded. Teleporting to Sirzechs's office and grabbing a couple of small cards that would fit nicely in Issei's pocket, Grayfia teleported back and gave them to Sirzechs. "Got them here."

"Great, whenever he feels the need or whenever he wants to see me, this will light up and I will show up. This is perfect!" Sirzechs jumped up in the air celebrating knowing that she was able to secure Issei's safety.

"Now here is the true problem, how will you give them to him? Also, don't use all of them." Sirzechs sinisterly smirked before teleporting away. Grayfia stood standing right in front of where Sirzechs was before thinking to herself about where Sirzechs went. "Hold up, there is no way Sirzechs would get that desperate."

Grayfia denied the thought of her breaking into Issei's room. However, her sinister smirk was causing her to think otherwise. Sirzechs may have been a mature young woman, but her mind would frequently convert her into a childish adult at times.

Sirzechs soon returned with only a few fliers in her hand. "Alright, problem solved."

"What did you do?"

"I teleported into Issei's room while he was asleep and shoved a bunch of these fliers into his backpack. Not only that, I placed a couple of them into the back of his phone case. I have to be one hundred percent sure that he would be totally fine if he were to become desperate in front of a supernatural being."

"Not creepy at all. Sirzechs, we have to talk about some limitations with your connection with Issei."

"What did I do wrong? I'm only taking precautions, so Issei doesn't get hurt."

"Not knowing what you did wrong is another problem. Time for professor Grayfia in teaching you common sense."

Waking up and yawning, Issei got ready to leave his home. Doing his daily routine, Issei walked out of his house and began walking towards his school. Today was going to be a very uneventful day. He didn't have any plans with Sirzechs or his other two friends.

"I wonder, should I get a donut, or should I save my money? Entertainment or smartness?" Taking another step forward, Issei sighed before taking a look at the time from his phone. "Huh, what is this weird paper on my phone?" Stuck on his phone was a small card that had a teleportation circle unique to Sirzechs. "I... I don't even know how this got here."

However, his thoughts were interrupted as the space surrounding him began distorting. "What the fuck?"

Being frozen and looking around, Issei began panicking before turning his head to some footsteps approaching. "Finally, it took a while, but I have singled you out of humanity. This is the perfect time to end you."

"Yuuma? What the hell are you talking about?"

Slowly, Yuuma's warm grin transformed into a wicked grin while she transformed into her true form. Spreading her black wings into the air while floating in the sky, she simply laughed at Issei's question. "Disrespecting me the other day had angered me to the point where I just want nothing more than you being dead. What better way to help my feelings than killing you myself."

Forming a light spear, Raynare began to reel her hand back to snipe Issei's heart. "Wait, what the fuck are you?" Issei needed a way to die down the situation. His confusion was replaced with fear as he looked around to try and find something to help him. However, he wasn't able to find anything as they were inside an alternate dimension.

"Simple, I'm just better than you."

"Did I ever tell you that you look beautiful."

"This beauty is something to die for." Raynare threw the spear at speeds Issei couldn't react to. Feeling immense pain in his mid-section, Issei looked down to see his entire stomach being replaced with an empty hole. Coughing blood, Issei immediately dropped to the ground and turned his attention to Raynare.

Hysterically laughing, Raynare continued degrading him. "Such a pathetic way to die. A stomach missing and a heart stolen by yours truly."

"I can't die like this." Issei tried to get up. Blood was spewing out of his body forming a puddle. His vision was becoming blurry as he could only continue staring into the endless sky. "Sirzechs... Looks like I won't be talking to you again."

Raynare watched as Issei slowly began sitting up. "Oh, would you look at that. The little soldier can take a little bit of pain."

"You won't get away with this... You won't see the light of day. Someone will get you." Issei could say before he fell over once more and finally began losing the light in his eyes.

Thinking to himself, Issei could only remember the times with Sirzechs. The only friend that Issei had where he felt as if he wasn't being judged, where he felt safe, and comfortable speaking his mind with. Smirking to himself, "Sorry Sirzechs, better luck next time. I hope... you achieve... your dreams."

That was when one of the fliers began glowing.

Someone was coming... Raynare felt a huge power approaching the area. The power felt unbelievably huge as she froze in the middle of the sky. Her eyes widen in sensing the power. "This power... who is this? Azazel isn't this powerful." Appearing through a magic circle, Sirzechs beamed with a smile thinking that Issei was thinking about her.

"Issei, what's wrong? Did you miss-" Sirzechs stopped speaking when seeing Issei's lifeless body on the ground.
