Lelouch turned his attention to the undressed form of Issei as Akeno wrapped up some of his wounds.
He moved and sat down on the couch across from the injured boy, eyes softening in some sympathy as he took in the boy's wounds.
"That Exorcist sure did a number on you, huh Issei." Lelouch commented, analyzing the scar on the boy's back.
It looked like it would need to be healed further soon or he doubted it would disappear.
"Yeah." Issei agreed downtrodden. "I couldn't save Asia." He was so disappointed in himself, he couldn't save his friend when it counted.
"Asia?" Lelouch asked curiously, not recognizing the name.
"That nun friend of Issei's." Rias' voice sounded from behind him as she left the shower, thankfully dressed this time. "She's apparently working under a Stray Exorcist with the Fallen Angels here in town."
Lelouch's eyes widened at that. 'What is with Issei's luck when it comes to Fallen Angels?' He wondered.
The poor kid couldn't seem to catch a break. He assumed that the Stray Exorcist was a term similar to Stray Devil, only referring to an Exorcist who was excommunicated from the Church.
"She's not with them!" Issei asserted adamantly. "She would never, she's too kind!" Issei knew Asia, he knew she would never work with those scumbags.
"We can't take that risk Issei." Rias ordered, solemnly. "If she's with the Fallen Angels then she's a threat we must be wary of.
" Lelouch, understanding her paranoia, agreed. Though, once again, Rias needed to work on her phrasing as this would just inflame Issei and make him more stubborn.
"She wouldn't hurt a fly!" Issei shouted, as if to prove his prediction, before storming off after he finished getting dressed.
"You need to work on how you say things, Madame President." Lelouch said as he looked at Rias' dumbfounded expression. She looked like she was blindsided by his reaction. "Issei's just going to dig in deeper until he finds out a way to save that girl."
He hadn't mentioned her appearance once, all Issei had described about Asia was her personality.
Issei cared far more for this young girl than Lelouch had thought the boy capable of at this point in time. Issei's care for Asia went beyond simple Lust as he had first suspected.
"Why did you send Akeno for me?" He asked, cutting off any excuse Rias may have been prepared to give him. She needed to think on his advice later, to make sure that she didn't end up accidentally driving one of her Peerage away. "I was making progress on controlling my Wrath so I can use it in battle."
"Oh boy, was he." Akeno murmured admiringly from her position on the couch, drawing a glare from Koneko which she didn't notice.
The white-haired girl made a mental note to ask Lelouch to demonstrate just how far he'd come in his practice when they got home.
She wouldn't lose him to that busty sadist.
Besides, she was curious. His Wrath always gave a strong boost to his spells when he was training with Akeno and he got pissed, she was rather impressed by it actually, considering how short a time he had been a Devil. She was always eager to see how far he'd come.
"That's good, actually." Rias admitted, resolving to try and be more careful with her words in the future thanks to Lelouch's advice.
"We may need to fight the Fallen Angels here in Kuoh soon, so I'll need you to be in top shape." The President gave a look to her sadistic Queen.
"That means no training for the next few days as we wait for the Fallen Angels to make their move." Ignoring Akeno's complaining, she looked at Kiba and Lelouch.
"Kiba, I want you to help Lelouch work on his speed." She ordered. "It's not bad, but it could use a little last minute polishing before we fight." From what she had seen of Lelouch and Akeno's spars, the young man had his speed under control save for a difficulty handling sharp turns and decelerating without skidding beyond his landing point.
"Understood Lady Rias." Kiba acknowledged looking at his somewhat friend. This would be the first time they were going to be alone together since Lelouch had become a Devil at Kiba's request.
"You ready for some control training tomorrow Lelouch?" The blond asked his fellow Knight. It was rather late, so he decided to wait until the next day to begin Lelouch's training, Rias could get them permission to skip school for a club event if they needed.
"Sure thing." Lelouch said with a smirk, feeling excited at the chance in the near future to test out his power in combat.
"This was the reason I had Akeno grab you Lelouch." Rias admitted, wishing Issei had remained so that she could have given him this information as well, but he was still too impulsive.
"Fallen Angels are a legitimate threat to us as Devils, but they've been intruding in the territory of the Gremory family so I must remove them from my domain.
" She declared, waiting to see any sign Lelouch or any other members of her Peerage disagreed. She saw none.
"I'm unsure of the day we will launch our assault, but I know it will be soon." Rias ordered. "So, be prepared to get called at a moment's notice to arrive here so we can develop a battle plan."
Lelouch smiled at Rias, approving of her initiative. He hoped he got the chance to off the Fallen Angel who had killed him the first time in this world.
Vengeance would be so sweet.
Lelouch yawned as he walked through the woods with Kiba, preparing to begin his speed training. He was dressed in his pair of black boots, a pair of black jeans with a grey belt, a white button down long-sleeved t-shirt, and an unzipped black jacket lined with golden thread around the edges along with a high collar around his neck.
He had decided against going to school today, having a feeling his training would be exhausting and being tired after the previous night.
