3rd Person POV:

Outside of the Old School Building, in a nearby clearing

Irina: "Amen!" Irina shouted as she dashed quickly at Issei, raising her sword above her head in preparation for an attack.

Asia, Rias, and Akeno: "FIANCEE?" the three girls shouted in united confusion.

Issei: "...I'll explain later." Issei said, as he shifted from Irina's attack line and summoned his 'Boosted Gear', "But for now, 'Boosted Gear'!"

Issei had stepped off of Irina's attack line, however she was if she were as skilled of a swordswoman as Issei thought she was, she would be able to do something still.

Asia: "Issei-san! Look out!" Asia called from the sideline.

Issei had indeed managed to dodge and avoid a severe slash, however, Irina's skill was on full display as she shifted her body mid-attack to adjust and slash across the front of Issei's chest, ripping his uniform shirt and undershirt slightly.

Issei: "Woah!" Issei said as he backed away, moving toward Kiba and Xenovia's battle. "This isn't just a friendly match, you're coming at me seriously!"

Irina: "Oh," Irina said as she wiggled and squirmed in place once again. Looking up towards the heavens she continued, "To have to kill my old friend in my own hometown! What a truly cruel fate!" The blush on Irina's face had begun to grow wider.

Rias: "Issei," Rias called from the side, "avoid direct attack!"

Issei: "That's already the plan, Buchou." Issei responded, taking another step back to gain more room between himself and Irina. His hope was that Kiba's 'Sword Birth' would allow him to use one of the many swords created. "(No better time to test that possibility than now, I suppose.)" Issei thought as he trained his focus on the weapon his opponent was wielding. "(It looks like a traditional Katate-uichigatana more than a Wakazashi... Either way, it's more dangerous than a normal blade, that much is obvious. And in the hands of a fanatical wielder, it becomes all the more dangerous. I need to hope that I can utilize one of the many swords Kiba created, if not then I really do have to rely on purely my technique and martial prowess.)" Issei's thoughts were racing as he formulated his plan.

Xenovia: "'The Red Dragon Emorer's, Dragon Gauntlet'?" Xenovia spoke questioningly, as she looked at the blonde knight standing across from her. "With Asia Argento's 'Twilight Healing' and your 'Sword Birth', you've definitely got a lot of the 'Pagan Sacred Treasures' gathered."
