Haru carefully observed the beautiful blonde girl in front of him. Her emerald eyes were both stunning and profound, and her waist-length golden hair had fallen out from under her white veil, shimmering like gold under the sunlight.
She wore a standard nun's outfit with a black base and blue collar, but the loose garment couldn't conceal her graceful figure.
The blonde girl had a troubled expression on her delicate face, her eyes filled with moisture, clearly, she was in pain from her fall.
"Ouch, ouch..." She quickly extended her pure white hands to cover her reddened nose, gently rubbing it. Her sweet voice carried a hint of a sob.
Then, a faint green glow emanated from her hands. The gentle light shone on her face, and her originally red nose slowly returned to its fair color.
The pedestrians around them were dumbfounded, staring at the green light in the girl's hands. The once lively street fell into an eerie silence.
After healing her injury, the girl slightly raised her head, just in time to see Haru's exasperated expression. She tilted her head slightly and asked in confusion, "Excuse me? Is there something wrong?"
The veins on Haru's forehead bulged, extending to his face. His mouth twitched uncontrollably as he looked at the blonde girl before him. He quickly stepped forward, placed his hand on her small head, and started ruffling her hair.
"Ah! Don't mess up my hair!" The girl hurriedly raised her hands, grabbing the large hand causing mischief. Her eyes, filled with mist, now showed a look of displeasure as she glared at Haru.
Snap! With a soft sound, the surrounding onlookers seemed to be controlled, returning to their normal activities.
"Eh?" A middle-aged office worker walked past the blonde girl. She noticed his vacant eyes.
Curiously, she looked around and found that all the people nearby had empty gazes as they walked down the street. Puffing her cheeks, she complained to Haru, "Sir, did you do something bad to everyone? Please stop harming others intentionally."
Haru sighed helplessly and flicked her forehead lightly. "Who do you think caused this? Using a Sacred Gear in front of normal people? Are you really that clueless?"
After speaking, Haru was suddenly taken aback. Blonde hair, a nun, a healing-type Sacred Gear? He tentatively asked, "Are you Asia Argento?"
"Eh? Yes, I'm Asia Argento. May I ask who you are?" Asia looked at the silver-haired young man before her in confusion, then suddenly seemed to realize something.
"Are you the priest from Kuoh Town? That's wonderful! I finally found you. Did you feel the Lord's guidance to come and rescue me?"
Haru stared blankly at the delighted Asia, speechless. What was going on?
"Um, I'm sorry I'm late for my appointment. I'm not very good at speaking Japanese, and I forgot to buy a map. Then I got lost, and no one on the road could understand what I was saying..."
Asia shyly looked at Haru, raising her hands to her chest and fiddling with her fingers, her face full of embarrassment as she explained why she missed her reporting time.
Hearing Asia's words, Haru realized that the adorable, naive girl before him had mistaken him for the priest sent to meet her. Understanding this, a mischievous smile appeared on his face.
"Well, Sister Asia, in this country, it's customary to show your panties when apologizing."
"Eh?! Is that so?" Asia's face turned bright red. She quickly stepped back a few paces, looking at Haru in shock.
The scene remained frozen for several minutes. Seeing Haru's serious expression, Asia hesitated for a moment, then slowly lifted her nun's habit, maintaining that posture as she softly said, "Um, I'm sorry for being late."
"Oh, it's alright. Now, let me take you to our base," Haru said with a pleased expression, laughing slyly as he watched Asia's apologetic stance.
Haru took Asia's hand and walked a few steps before turning around. The Boosted Gear of the Red Dragon Emperor appeared on his arm. With a serious face, he said to Asia, "Asia, remember, don't use your Sacred Gear in front of people... You'll be ostracized."
Asia's pupils contracted sharply. Memories of her lonely childhood echoed in her mind, and she looked sorrowful. "Is that so? Thank you for the reminder, Father."
"Oh, and I'm not a priest. Just call me Haru. Nice to meet you, Asia." Haru mischievously reached out his hand, once again messing up Asia's hair with a wicked grin.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Haru... Um, I told you not to mess up my hair!" Asia pouted in displeasure, gently patting the mischievous hand. Realizing her resistance was futile, she began to mutter softly under her breath.
"...Bullying me~~"
...
At Kuoh Academy's Occult Research Club.
Asia sat bewildered on the sofa, looking at the four people across from her who exuded a strong demonic aura.
Before coming to Kuoh Town, Asia had encountered a devil. That devil had brought her unfortunate experiences, so she had a deep impression of a devil's aura.
The others were manageable, but the red-haired big sister lazily reclining on the sofa directly opposite her must be a very high-ranking devil.
Like rusty gears, Asia stiffly turned her head to look at Haru, who was grinning mischievously. "Um, Mr. Haru... This doesn't seem to be a church, and... it feels like we've walked into the devils' headquarters..." Her sweet voice carried an unmistakable sadness.
Dear Lord in Heaven, your faithful servant Asia has fallen into the devils' lair. Could you please send an angel to help me?
"We didn't go to the wrong place; this is indeed our base," Haru said seriously, looking at the melancholic Asia. Then he turned his head, a wicked smile on his face as he looked at Rias.
"President, I've Kidn... I mean, found a Sacred Gear user, a healing type. But she has some connections with the Fallen Angels. Do you dare to take her in?"
Asia looked utterly shocked at Haru, who seemed like a human trafficker. Trembling, she asked, "Um, Mr. Haru... Are you..."
Then, her mouth opened slightly as she stared blankly at Haru. In her emerald eyes, she saw his bright smile, revealing white teeth, and the large bat-like wings spreading out behind him.
'Will someone please save me~~~' Asia's inner world was collapsing at this moment.
Hearing about a healing-type Sacred Gear user connected to the Fallen Angels, a flash of realization crossed Rias mind.
After Haru's encounter with the Fallen Angel yesterday, during which he had killed the Fallen Angel, Rias and Akeno had investigated the movements of the Fallen Angels to prevent potential conflicts.
Then, a certain high-ranking Fallen Angel double agent, Mr. Baraqiel, had quietly placed all the recent plans of the Fallen Angels in Japan at Akeno's doorstep.
Combined with the information obtained from the memory of the previously killed Fallen Angel, she learned about the Fallen Angels' recent plans in Kuoh Town.
The core of the plan revolved around a runaway nun who possessed a Sacred Gear capable of healing all life.
So, it was obvious who the nun before them was. Rias looked at the adorably stunned nun in front of her and smiled brightly.
"Welcome to the territory of Gremory, Sister Asia."
At 7 p.m., in the dilapidated church of Kuoh Town, in its main hall.
A figure with black wings flapped them anxiously as he flew inside.
