After Azazel finished his report, the members of DxD all went their own ways.

At a later date, they would meet the Maou Ajuka Beelzebub to reunite with Ravel and Riser Phenex that is in the Maou's custody.

Rias and Asia just came from the large bath in the underground floor and are making their way to the first floor.

Asia was relieved that both Phenex siblings are safe. Rias also was the same as she treats Ravel as her little sister. Rias said that it was right to trust his brother and Azazel although she thinks that they should really be prepared on anything. She noted that she was really scared on what happened.

According to Rias, she knows that there is no absolute in the world. She knows this as a fact as in their recent battle against the Hero Faction, the love of her life - Hyoudou Issei - once lost his body to them. Only a miracle was able to save him and bring him back.

However, this news was a really good one.

The reason why the two are with Ajuka? That information is still secret and only a handful of people know and it is something that even most of the higher ups know nothing about.

Another thing is the whereabouts of the champion Diehauser Belial.

Even though the sibling's location are already known, the Emperor's isn't. As Rias partook in numerous fights against the Khaos Brigade: Cao Cao summoning Samael, the attack on the Vampire's territory ... she has this feeling about Belial's actions. Sheknows this feeling well and it is a bad thing.

As they arrived on the first floor and was on their way to eat ice cream, they met Issei's mom in the living room. When Rias and Asia approached her, they saw multiple albums in front of her. She picked up one and showed it to the two girls. It was a picture album of Issei when he was still a kid. Both Asia and Rias already know of this album as Issei's mom showed it to them before the Kokabiel incident.

Rias and Asia sat on the sofa and decided that they would once again go through Issei's pictures. The album that Rias had in hand was an album that records Issei's growth with labels of "Issei, first ○○" under each picture.

Issei's mom said that Issei is their only son. She says that he looks cute for her and that person (Issei's father). She thinks that Issei's pictures when he was young was really cute.

When Issei's mom said that, Rias and Asia noted that Issei is loved by his parents. From the smile of his mother to the number of albums full of his pictures, he really is loved.

Suddenly, Issei's mother's hand stopped on a particular picture. It was a picture of Issei holding a fishing rod and pointing at the line. It was an Issei freshly enrolled in elementary school and holding a fishing rod that does not match his size.

When Rias asked what that picture is about, Issei's mom said that that was his cherished fishing rod and fishing is the hobby of both him and his father. They always go to rivers and the sea and always have a good time. Issei's father's actions influenced his son but that stopped one day.

Asia questioned why and Issei's mom said that Issei broke the fishing rod in the picture.

Both Issei and his father were at the sea and are taking a break. Issei took his father's fishing rod without permission and started fishing with it. He wanted to be complimented by his dad for reeling in a big fish but instead the fishing rod broke.

Issei continuously blamed himself even though his father forgave him. But Issei didn't forgive himself and since then, he has never tried fishing voluntarily again.

Rias and Asia know this trait of Issei quite well. When tragedy occurs, even though it is not entirely his fault, he will still blame himself. Issei still blames himself for the incident that happened with Asia. Rias sympathizes with Issei's mother.

Issei's mom then asked if Issei made Asia cry? She immediately retracted it saying that there is no way that his son will let Asia cry.

Rias had no words on what happened. This person knows Issei too well.

Issei's mother continued and said that Issei is over-protective of Asia. If anything happens to her, he will not forgive himself and it will stay in his mind forever.

Issei's mother then said that since Issei's hobby of fishing can no longer be, she accepted his other hobby. When asked what it is, Issei's mom said that there is only one thing. One thing that never changed since he was a kid. Rias and Asia eagerly asked what it is and Issei's mom looked at a certain picture. On it was a picture of Issei with an expression that all three of them know too well. If they see that expression, they can exactly tell what it is.

Issei's mom then took Rias and Asia's hand and told them seriously. She told them that even though this -- Issei's thing -- is lewd, she thinks that he is only being honest to his heart.

Both Rias and Asia agreed to Issei's mom and the three women held their hands tightly and nodded their heads. [/SPOILER]
