"Everyone wears a mask, Devils are no exception to this. If you want to find out someone's true nature then look at the mask they wear. It is always the opposite of what they are trying to hide, whether they know it or not," answered the Godslayer, causing Issei to fall into a stunned silence.
Just what was hiding beneath Sirzech's cheerful smile that could cause someone like Scathach to be wary. 'No not wary, she's afraid,' he realized in shock as he stared at the stern expression on his companion's face.
"Alright Scathach I'll be careful," assured the teen, bringing a relieved smile to the witch's face.
Issei then looked down at his clenched fist and sighed, "I suppose that's another problem to add to the growing list."
The Godslayer then noticed the small letter that was clutched in his hand, and instantly a spike of anger rushed through her body as she stood up and quickly grabbed it from him. 'Who was it? The nun? She's far more bold then I gave her credit for if that's the case,' thought the witch as she kept the letter out of the teen's increasingly frantic struggles, only for her to blink as an amused smile across her face as she read it.
"Well, it looks like someone has an admirer," she stated, through barely contained laughter.
"He probably just wants to be friendly," argued Issei, weakly.
Scáthach just shot him another amused glance before she read a verse from the love poem,
"If I could have just one wish,
I would wish to wake up every day
to the sound of your breath on my neck,
the warmth of your lips on my cheek,
the touch of your fingers on my skin,
and the feel of your heart beating with mine...
Knowing that I could never find that feeling
with anyone other than you.
Sincerely, Riser Phenex."
"Yep he wants to be friendly alright, tell him to send a ring next time. I could use some more for my collection," laughed Scáthach as she held up the jeweled moon bracelet that had come with the letter.
The witch just looked up and shook her head, "and to think I was worried for a second there."
"Worried? About what?" asked Issei, as Asia walked into the room with freshly cooked eggs and bacon.
"Issei, I brought you breakfast," she announced, before placing the food in front of him.
Issei smiled up at her, "you remembered my favourite way to cook eggs, thank you Asia. I'm sure you will make a great wife."
The nun just gained an embarrassed blush as a bright smile appeared on her face, "thank you Issei."
'For a nun she's far craftier than I gave her credit for, I'll have to start taking her seriously,' realized Scáthach as she watched the couple eat together. Not realizing that a certain fox spirit was thinking the exact same thing as Issei suddenly gripped his head in pain.
"Another headache," groaned the teen in pain, only to see a bright green glow as the pain disappeared.
"Don't worry Issei, there is everything better now?" asked Asia as Twilight Healing's glow disappeared.
The teen smiled at her, "much better Asia, thank you."
"Of course Issei, I'm happy to help," replied the nun, happily.
Scáthach felt another brief spike of anger before she suppressed it and sat back down at the table with them, snapping the two out of their daze as he turned to face her. "Scáthach, I know this is short notice but I need a favour. The school's holding a festival before the parent's day in a couple of days' time and I was wondering if you could help the ORC with our stall," informed Issei.
"Why not just asked Asia to help you? The two of you are clearly close enough," scoffed Scát
hach as the witch crossed her arms over her chest.
as Issei grasped her hands with his own and looked her in the eye, "Scáthach, this is something that only you can do…no one else. I promise you'll be rewarded afterwards."
