Seconds later, she got up from the bed and walked over to the window, seeing Issei rush out of the door. Issei looked up from his spot, seeing Ophis looking out of his window. Nodding and smiling to her, Issei gave Ophis a thumbs-up.

The Ouroboros Dragon tilted her head again, and she lifted her hand up, mimicking Issei's thumbs up gesture.

"I'll be back, Ophis!"

And with that, the young man rushed on his way to school, leaving Ophis at his room window. Watching him leave, Ophis put her hand on the glass window, looking at her reflection.

"My Issei."

Kuoh Academy

Issei sighed as he sat at his desk. On his way to school, he could sense the numerous energies of the Devils. He could tell that some of them involved the members of the Occult Research Club and Student Council.

Yuuto Kiba and Genshirou Saji.

Issei had to admit, he was a little surprised when he discovered that Yuuto and Saji were Devils. And honestly, that troubled him slightly. Because of Riser, Issei's opinion of Devils had lowered greatly. And the fact that Yuuto and Saji, who Issei had considered as light acquaintances, were Devils, that conflicted with him.

Regardless, Issei still didn't trust the Devils at all. Since Yuuto and Saji seemed like the only Devils who had not troubled him at all, and were actually pleasant to him, he would go by his own rule.

'If they don't bother me, I won't bother them. It's that simple.'

No sense in killing an innocent Devil who had no way of being involved in his own life.

Issei chuckled a bit.

'Innocent Devil. That's an oxymoron.'

He looked over to the empty desk next to him.

'Hmm...Yuuma-san's not here.'

"Ok, class!"

The students in the classroom ceased in their chatting as they looked at the teacher. Issei rose an eyebrow, wondering what was so important. The teacher smiled as she looked at her students, and walked over to the door.

"We have a new student here today! Please make her feel welcome!"

The teacher opened the door, allowing the new student to walk in. Issei widened his eyes at the familiar person, and then he narrowed them darkly.

'Why am I not surprised?'

It was a well-endowed young woman of Chinese descent with shoulder-length black hair and blue-green eyes. Her hair had two Chinese-style buns on both sides of her head. She was dressed in the Kuoh Academy girls' uniform, which hugged her figure.

Xuelan shuffled her feet as she looked at the students in front of her. She gave a cheerful smile as she waved at the students.

"Hey, everyone! My name's Xuelan. It's nice to meet you all. I hope we can be friends!"

She giggled as she noticed some of the students giving her appreciative looks, the girls complimenting her hairstyle, and the males complimenting her physical appearance.

Only one student was not happy at seeing Xuelan, and he didn't bother to cover it up. Xuelan smiled as she looked over at the students, but then her smile faded slightly as she noticed the look on Issei's face.

Cold, narrowed, brown and yellow-orange eyes stared right into Xuelan's blue-green eyes. Xuelan felt her body shake, and she gulped down a nervous lump in her throat.

"Xuelan-chan, why don't you go sit next to Hyoudou-kun. He was a new student as well before you."

Xuelan forced a smile as she walked over to sit next to Issei, who removed his attention from her and glared at the chalkboard. The Chinese Devil crossed her arms as she sighed.

'Going to his house didn't work. Enrolling into this school was a sure way to get close to him.'

Issei inwardly sighed as he tried to control himself. He wasn't exactly in a murderous rage, but he was mad enough to throw a desk out the window. He would just have to settle with sitting next to the Chinese Devil.

Who wouldn't stop bothering him.

Sighing, Issei put his hand on his cheek, ignoring Xuelan's stare.

'Damn it. I knew I should have listened to Ophis and just stay at home. I wonder what she's doing right now?'

Issei's House

Ophis tilted her head as she silently walked around Issei's house. Moments after Issei left his house, the Ouroboros Dragon decided to go to sleep on Issei's bed. Not even 10 minutes later, did her stomach start growling.

"I, am hungry."

As she walked into the kitchen, she opened the cabinets, and refrigerator, and let an expression akin to disappointment form on her face.

"No, doughnuts, cookies."

Shutting the refrigerator door, Ophis went to look in the living room, and stopped when she saw a flyer laid upon the table. Tilting her head again, Ophis picked the flyer up and unfolded it, looking at the title.

"Fortune, Cooky."

The Phenex Mansion

The mansion was quiet, completely void of all sound. Sitting in the living room of the Phenex mansion were none other than the members of late Riser's peerage.

Yubelluna, Riser's Queen, stared at the walls with a lifeless gaze as she held herself. She couldn't believe that Issei had murdered her Riser!

'That boy! That awful boy! How could he do that to Riser-sama?!'

A young girl with long blonde hair and dark blue eyes shivered as she remained still. Her hair was tied in twin ponytails with large, drill-like curls, with blue ribbons keeping them in place. The front of her hair had several bangs hanging over her forehead, with a V-shaped fringe hanging over the bridge of her nose. She wore a long, pink dress with white frills and a magenta bow in the front.

Ravel Phenex, the younger sister of Riser, was just as deathly quiet as the rest of her brother's peerage.

When she witnessed her brother's death, Ravel didn't know what to think. It was as though time had ceased in her mind. The emotions she had felt during that time were changing so rapidly, she didn't what to feel.

Issei Hyoudou.

The young man who had killed her older brother.

The boy honestly frightened her to the core. That bone-chilling glare he gave towards her and the rest of the peerage. It was a sight wouldn't leave Ravel's mind.

When Lord Phenex had asked Riser's peerage to retrieve Issei in order to discuss his inheritance from Riser, Ravel and the other members had no intention of going anywhere near Issei.

Except Xuelan. The Chinese Rook was the only one who had volunteered.
