The Gremory family stood before a sealed door.
"Gasper, come out and meet everyone."
There was no response from inside. Issei narrowed his eyes with a doubtful expression, unsure of what to do.
At that moment, the door opened from within. A beautiful, petite young man wearing a female school uniform stepped out, his face filled with shyness.
"Buchou…"
Rias smiled gently.
"There's nothing to be afraid of. We're here for you," Rias said in a caring tone.
"Rias is right. There's nothing to worry about," Issei added with a warm smile.
Gasper's eyes lit up when he saw Issei.
"Issei-senpai?"
"Hm? You know me?"
Gasper nodded.
"I often hear people talking about you, Senpai."
"Hahaha, so I'm pretty well-known. That's kind of embarrassing."
Gasper let out a small laugh, feeling comforted by Issei's reaction.
Rias noticed something and whispered softly into Issei's ear.
"Please take care of Gasper."
Without hesitation, Issei nodded in agreement.
"Alright, but don't forget my reward."
Rias blushed and nodded with a shy, adorable expression.
Issei grinned in satisfaction and tried to get closer to Gasper.
Gasper seemed braver here and much easier to talk to, especially around Issei.
After observing him more closely, it turned out that Gasper greatly admired Issei.
He had even set his goal to become a dependable man like Issei.
'I didn't expect my changes to alter so many elements of the original story,' Issei muttered inwardly, then stopped thinking about it after a moment.
There was no point dwelling on useless thoughts. It was better to focus on teaching his junior how to act like a real man.
Not wanting to interfere, Rias ordered everyone to leave, except for Kiba.
Kiba merely watched and listened to Issei and Gasper's conversation from the side, with no intention of stepping in.
'Issei-kun, thank you. I promise I will become the finest sword of the Gremory family.'

Today was Parents' Visiting Day at the school.
Issei was running a bit late, so he headed out alone without Rias and Asia.
On the way, Issei accidentally noticed a crowd of men taking pictures of a witch girl wearing a pink-dominated dress, her long black hair tied into twin tails.
"Seriously, who's cosplaying in a place like this?"
Issei walked past the crowd, then stopped after a moment.
"Wait… I'm pretty sure I recognize that outfit…"
He took a step back, pushed through the crowd, and saw a scene that was all too familiar to him.
Not from this world—but from his previous one.
Serafall Leviathan, the only female Devil King and the older sister of Sona Sitri.
For some reason, she was here, posing in front of a group of men she didn't even know.
"Serafall-sama, why are you here?" Issei decided to speak up. Besides dispersing the crowd, he personally wanted to get closer to her.
"Hm? Who are you?" Serafall looked at Issei with sparkling eyes.
"Ah, please forgive me. My name is Hyoudou Issei. A pawn of Rias Gremory."
"Oh, so you're the current Red Dragon Emperor?"
Issei nodded gently.
"Are you heading to the academy, Serafall-sama?"
"Yes, but these people stopped me because they couldn't resist the charm of a magical girl."
Serafall looked proud as she puffed out her large chest confidently.
Issei gave a wry smile, glanced at the remaining crowd, and released a sharp aura toward them.
"!"
Instantly, the men froze before hurriedly scattering away.
After the crowd dispersed, Serafall blinked her clear eyes and stared straight at Issei.
"Such excellent control over your power. Even Sona-chan isn't as good as you."
"Thank you for the compliment. How about we go to the academy together?"
"Sure. It's boring to walk alone anyway."
With Serafall's agreement, the two headed toward Kuoh Academy together.

The Student Council members were busy conducting inspections on students carrying prohibited items such as adult magazines, game consoles, manga, and the like.
Everything went smoothly—until Issei arrived with Serafall.
"Sona-chan!"
"O-Onee-sama?!"
Sona was utterly shocked as her older sister ran toward her in a magical girl outfit.
Sona wanted to scold her sister, but her attention was suddenly stolen by Issei.
"Eh? Issei-kun? Why are you with my sister?!"
Issei smiled awkwardly.
"Some things happened, and we ended up coming together."
Sona fell silent, adjusted her glasses, then spoke sharply to Serafall.
"Big Sister! Why are you wearing something like that?!"
