Prince of Asmodeus

Parentage

No matter where you went, the area around Kyoto looked stunning. There were trees and rivers and valleys and mountains. Issei had been around there area once or twice in his past but never really had the opportunity to absorb the scenery. He knew that he had a time limit for finding Kuroka but he just couldn't help it. He stopped at one of the many valleys he had passed by and watched the sunset. He swore that he could stay there for hours and not notice the passing of time. However this view was far too similar to him. Though at the moment he couldn't seem to remember why that was the case. For now he had to move onward.

With an hour passing he had no luck in his search. Naivety had consumed him in thinking that a wanted criminal such as Kuroka would be an easy find. Though it wasn't completely his fault. The coordinates that Sirzechs provided were far from accurate. Sirzechs said that she was in an abandoned mansion but when he arrived to the coordinates it was in the center of Kyoto. Wether Sirzechs purposely gave him the wrong coordinates or not was unclear. But Issei had his suspicions.

However he did find his luck when he sensed some demonic signature leaving Kyoto. Since Sirzechs ordered all Devils to leave Kyoto before Issei's departure it gave him reason to believe that Kuroka was the only being in the city to have a demonic signature. With this in mind he made his way toward the cat in hopes for peaceful negotiations. Unfortunately for him however, any change of peaceful negotiations died with her master as when he attempted to calmly approach her she fired multiple ki orbs toward him. Issei effortlessly dodged the ki orbs and continued toward her.

"Quite aggressive for an introduction wouldn't you say?" He asked jokingly.

Kuroka stood prepared in case Issei would've attempted to try anything. However she was slightly confused as to why he was so casual. Normally any other person would be slightly fearful when they saw her; even Devil soldiers sent to subdue her. Curious. Nevertheless she had to stay cautious. Though she did allow her eyes to wander around his figure. She, like many other women found him devilishly handsome. He had a nice toned body and the power radiating off of him made her curious as to who he was.

"What else is a poor damsel such as I supposed to do when a complete stranger such as yourself approaches me in a hidden area nya? I am far too fragile." Kuroka replied with a false tone of worry.

"I think we both know that you're far from fragile, Stray Devil Kuroka."

With this Kuroka leapt back to keep some distance between them. The fact that he knew who she was and wasn't worried at all was troubling to her. She summoned more ki onto her fist in preparation for the worst. "What do you want?" She asked, her voice now sharpened.

Noticing that Kuroka was turning even more hostile, Issei made his attempts to calm her down. "Please just relax. I only want to talk; that's it."

Kuroka heard the sincerity in his voice. It had been a long time since someone had been sincere toward her so it caught her off guard. She dissipated the ki within her fist and returned to a normal stance. However she didn't get closer to him. She needed that space between them. Just in case.

"Listen I just want to offer you a deal. If by any chance you reject it I will go, peacefully." Issei said.

"And who are you to be offering me a deal?" Kuroka asked, still unknowing of Issei's identity.

Issei himself cocked an eyebrow. He had expected that most people, even criminals would know who he was. Sure he had only been back for about a week but news spreads quickly. "You haven't heard of me? I'm well known within Devil society."

"Sorry but keeping up with the news was never a priority." She said sarcastically.

Issei understood her situation of not being up to date. To quickly catch her up to things he decided to unfurl all twelve of his wings. "My name is Issei Asmodeus, son of the first Asmodeus."
