DXD : Ray Gremory

I am a Devil, and I know Asia is incredible, for her power, personality, Dragon talent, and kindness.

"That is right, that Devil you healed, Diodora Astaroth, set you up to send you here to Kuoh to be sacrificed to those Fallen. Your impressive Sacred Gear would be ripped from you, killing you, then he wanted to steal it back from them and take you away into his harem for nefarious deeds to even kill followers of Heaven.

"

As Asia trembled, seeing a picture of the Devil she healed, and his current Peerage I showed her, full of captured holy maidens, left her heart trembling. My detailed outline was irrefutable.

But Kuisha asked me.

"Husband, how did you find all this out?"

"Ah, Well I read some of this in the reports back in Urakyoto when I dropped in on Yasaka a while back. "

Actually I am not telling lies here, because she indeed had reports of Church affairs due to her status, and the fact the Church operates in Japan.

Yasaka indeed lets me go through all of her intelligence, especially after the Hero Faction ambush. She always wants me to be prepared, plus I confirmed Asia being dismissed due to wanting to know how many butterflies I killed.

Everyone bought my words and we moved on. .

.

"Asia Argento, I wish to make you an offer you may-refuse, but know all of your options before deciding. .

. "

Holding up my hand, a Mutated Pawn Piece rested upon it, making others in the room look seriously at Asia. I propose.

. .

"Going to the Fallen equals death, and you cannot do good and help others. .

. Leaving on your own would only result in the first option, or the path of Diodora Astaroth capturing you as a plaything.

Not joining me and my family would also result in you becoming a criminal in the eyes of the Underworld. Or.

. .

You can join my Gremory family, and stay at the side of your friend Saji and his Brother and Sister you made friends with. You will be treated well, and in the future, be able to continue to help others.

"

I stood, walked to the flustered Asia, and held up the piece finishing.

"I Ray Gremory wishes for you to join my family, and let your kindness help others, even as a Devil. What do you say, Miss Argento?"

Asia had been conflicted, but when she saw my genuine feelings, she looked at Saji who had not once pressured her.

She smiled, thinking how she had been treated kindly by Saji and his siblings, and how these Devils have been upfront and kind. Her warm smile bloomed, and she said to me,

"Then how do they say it in Japan? Oh. .

. Please take care of me.

"

Man, now I know I am just a real Devil to bait this pure girl. Thankfully my Devil heart is strong, so I won't crumble under her pure light.

The next day in class 2-B. .

.

Saji, Kiba, Issei, Tomoe, Yura, Motohama, Aika, Matsuda, Katase, and Murayama were all taken aback at the new girl who came into the class.

On the blackboard, the girl's name was clearly written. .

. [Asia Argento]

The nervous Asia bows her head and introduces herself.

"Hello everyone, my name is Asia Argento, and I am an exchange student from Italy, please take care of me. "

""""""""""So cute!""""""""""

Most of the homeroom class, boys and girls were just instantly taken by her adorable demeanor. But when her eyes landed on Saji near the back left of the class, next to the windows, she waved and said.

"Hello Gen, we are in this same class, I am glad. " (Saji is his last-family name, and Asia is using the shortened cute form of calling him just Gen, from Genshirou Saji, showing intimacy)

Issei, seeing and hearing that, grabbed Saji by the collar and shook him, half crying, and half yelling.

"What the fuck man?! How do you know this hot girl!"

Asia seeing Saji getting unfriendly glares, and wanting others to understand, covered for her friend. .

. Or made it worse.

. .

"Oh, please don't hurt Gen, I actually live at his house now. "

"""""""""". .

. .

. .

. .

. .

silence. .

. .

. .

. .

. .

""""""""""

Issei shook him harder and yelled.

"Dammit! You are my neighbor and did not introduce her to me first, aaaarg!"

Whack! A paper-fan from next to Issei's desk, swatted him back into his seat and the commotion ended. Tomoe just smiled at her skill.

The usual questions, and fun continued for Asia's first morning, as she instantly made many friends, and caused many hearts to bloom. .

.

Out in the hall, two Devils are suppressing their presences as they kindly watched through the class in the door. .

.

Sona asked me.

"Ray, this surprises me that you wanted to take in an avid believer in God? And I was amused when Kuisha said she was surprised, because you have not taken her in as a harem member, and the Harem King nickname is crumbling. "

She is smirking at me so I throw it back.

"Oh? And how is your reverse-harem going? You have a lot of boys in your Peerage too?"

Sona pushed up her glasses with an angry set of eyes, and threatened me.

"You know damn well I have no relationships with no others but my future husband, and if you ever make a bad joke like that again, you will eat my baked goods for a week, understand?"

Cold sweat covered my back, and my stomach cramped in fear, so I nodded fast and said.

"Ah! Sorry, that was a bad joke, have mercy on me my wonderful and beautiful friend. But seriously, that girl is a true talent and treasure.

As far as the church thing, I am fine with it. I personally do not have hatred for other factions, just the bad elements in all of them.
