3rd Person POV:


Inside Issei and Asia's shared apartment


Issei sat on the edge of the bed, dressed and ready. Asia had woken up a little while ago and he had been up most of the night putting the finishing touches on his plans. He understood he would be at Rias' beck and call during this game, but he had his own intentions and plans to fulfill. 

Issei: "One hour left before the 'Rating Game' starts, huh?" Issei said, looking at the alarm clock. "(Thankfully most of my leading has accumulated, it all should crystallize today...)" Issei thought, his eyes darkening, "(Rias Gremory, you'll prove your usefulness to me today...)"

--  FLASHBACK  --


The last day of the training camp


Inside the sitting room


Rias: "It doesn't matter that our opponent is Phenex, Let's give him a taste of how strong the Household of Rias Gremory really is." Rias said confidently 

All of the ORC members looked at her and nodded in agreement and determination. Issei watched Rias speak and listened to the confidence in her voice. To say Issei was surprised about the attitude turn-around, would be an understatement. Although, he wouldn't complain about it.

Issei: "(It seems like our conversation has sat with her a little more, and she's getting even more confident. Good...)" Issei thought, looking at Rias who continued to give a prep talk to the assembled members.

Issei: "(I've set the stage, and my pieces are in place...)" Issei thought, staring out the window at the dark night sky above. "(This is when it all comes to fruition.)"
