"I know, I know, keep the necklace on," interrupted Issei as he turned around.

Morrigan looked conflicted before she followed her fellow Celt while Issei walked in the opposite direction, "are you sure we shouldn't go with him?" asked the Goddess.

Scáthach scoffed, "Now you're starting to sound like Issei, don't worry he'll only be gone for twenty minutes. He'll be fine, not even Cu Chulainn himself was that unlucky. Honestly Morrigan relax, what could possibly go wrong in twenty minutes?"

"True," conceded the Goddess with a nod as they walked back to the Hyoudou residence.

Meanwhile Issei was beginning to feel cautiously optimistic since he spent the whole day without tempting fate, he really should have realized that Lady Luck wouldn't let him go that easily. Or that he wasn't the only one that could tempt fate.

"Hello? Anyone home?" called the teen as he approached the address Rias had given and knocked on the door, only to get silence in response.

Frowning Issei was about to walk off when he accidently nudged to door causing it to swing open and reveal a darken hallway. 'Who leaves their door unlocked like that?' he thought in suspicion before sighing as he walked in.

"I hope you don't mind but I'm coming in," he announced, leaving the door open as he kept a hand on his cardholder.

As the teen walked into the nearest room he stopped short as he saw the headless corpse of a man lying in a pool of blood, "what the hell happened here?" gasped Issei.

"It's a shame that he lost his head, a careless sinner who wound up dead. He wore his sin like it was some kind of prize, too many lies, too many lies," sung a manic voice as Issei spun around to see a white haired man in some sort of priest outfit.

"You don't feel like one of those shitty Devils, bah no matter. So did you like my handiwork?" grinned the priest.

"You're responsible for this? Why?" growled Issei as his mind began whirling.

'This house is too small for me to use the Tauropolos and Gae Bolg effectively, I don't know what the Caster card does but if all else fails I can resort to Boosted Gear,' he decided as the teen pulled out the card from its holder. The priest just smiled as he pulled out a gun and some sort of small hilt looking object.

"I'm just doing my job, killing shitty Devils and Sinners is what I do best," replied the exorcist and Issei watched with wide eyes as the hilt object suddenly burst into light.

"A lightsaber?" exclaimed Issei in shock.

The priest just gave him a mocking bow in response before the light sword came swinging at Issei's head eagerly, "the name's Freed Sellzen, remember it well it's the name of the Stray Exorcist that will kill you."

"Include, Caster!" growled Issei as he was covered in light, his Rune necklace glowing a deep black and dark purple.

The two of them laughed as they drank their tea, one clad in a golden kimono with a sun pattern flowing along its surface while the other was clad in a black and white one with the different stages of the moon beautifully woven into the clothing.

"Indeed Tsukuyomi, I do wonder if our dear brother Susanoo will ever learn to act his age, why just yester-" the gold one suddenly paused mid-sentence as her eyes widened and she jumped to her feet, startling her companion.

"Amaterasu? What's wrong?" asked the Moon God, snapping his sister from her trance.

The Shinto Sun Goddess just shook her head, "I thought I just felt…no that's impossible I must have been mistaken."

Tsukuyomi watched as his companion returned to her seat and the Moon God tried to continue their previous conversation, only to frown as he noticed how distracted his sister seemed. Honestly, what could have cause Amaterasu to act like that? A couple of minutes later Tsukuyomi would wish they'd remained ignorant, would have saved them a large number of headaches in the future.

The insane exorcist frowned as the light died down to reveal his sword being blocked by a large ornate mirror hovering protectively in front of Issei. "A mirror? Ha! Are you that vain that you want to check your reflection before you die?" laughed Freed.

"Of course not, I thought you could use it. After all if looks could kill, then your ugly mug would be more deadly than even Gae Bolg," taunted Issei as the exorcist backed off.

"You shitty Devil lover, I'm going to enjoy breaking you and your precious mirror," promised Freed as he sent another attack, only to see the mirror halt his sword again.

Growling in frustration Freed attacked again with his light sword, intending to shatter the fragile looking mirror with his blade. However, the mirror held firm and the exorcist backed away in confusion as he saw it block the hit without a single crack or blemish on its ornate surface.

Issei slowly stood up from the ground and the mirror followed him, hovering around the teen like a protective guardian as he glared at Freed. The exorcist just snarled as he fired his gun at Issei, only to see the mirror quickly move between the two of them and block the otherwise lethal shots.

"Sorry exorcist but I'm afraid this 'fragile mirror' is more than strong enough to stop those weak attacks," smiled the teen.

Freed backed away slightly as he saw a paper talisman materialize in Issei's hand, "so you're a magic caster, are you? One of those shitty Devil's contracted mages?"

"Maybe I am and maybe I'm not," replied Issei before he threw the talisman at the exorcist, whom just laughed as it hit the floor beneath him.

"Pretty shitty mage if you ask me, if you can only throw paper at people," taunted Freed as stepped on the talisman.
