Until now, Issei had unconsciously avoided it. But it was time to admit it. It was the scene of being killed by Raynare. Whenever it surfaced, a sharp pain would pierce his chest, freezing him in place.
"Issei-san, why...?"
"Haha... sorry, Asia... It... It won't get hard..."
His crotch, which should have been proudly erect, had long since gone completely soft. Like this, there's no way...
"Ah... I-It's okay, Issei-san. I'll... I'll make it big..."
Saying that, Asia pulled down his shorts, exposing his dick.
"Asia!? What are you doing!?"
"It's okay! I studied up on it...!"
Saying that, Asia grasped his shaft and began moving her hand back and forth.
'That Asia is touching my cock, trying to make it big.' Even in this incredibly arousing situation, his thing didn't even twitch.
"Not working...? Then---mwah, suck, mmmh... lick, schlurp."
"A-Asia, doing that... ngh...!"
Asia took his limp, unresponsive cock into her mouth. 'Unbelievable! Asia is sucking my cock!' Her face flushed bright red as she pressed her mouth against his groin, working desperately to make him hard! But it was no use. It still showed absolutely no reaction... Eventually,
"---Pwah! Haah, haah... I'm sorry, Issei-san. My jaw got tired..."
Reaching her limit, Asia released him from her mouth.
"It's enough, Asia. Sorry, could you... go sleep for today...?"
He said it without looking up, unable to meet Asia's eyes.
"Issei-san..."
Asia seemed to gaze at him for a while, but eventually stood up, picked up her negligee from the floor, and left.
"Pathetic...!!"
Issei had failed to respond to Asia, who had mustered all her courage. 'Some Harem King I am! There's no way such a pathetic harem king exists!!'
Tears welled up unbidden at his own wretchedness.
Leaving Issei's room, Asia leaned her back against the door and sank to the floor.
Tonight, she had intended to give her virginity to Issei. But the result was failure, and she had deeply hurt him.
Even though Yumi and Xenovia had kindly taught her how to do it, though Xenovia's methods were far too extreme to be of much reference, it was disappointing...
"This wasn't how it was supposed to be..."
She wanted to be united with Issei, to have an unshakable bond.
Now, Raynare was by their side. Even if she had been deceived, she was someone Issei had truly loved. What if he fell for the reformed Raynare again...? The thought filled her with unbearable anxiety.
That's why Asia had pushed for it tonight, but it was no good.
"Maybe it's because my boobs are too small...?"
Issei's preference was for women with large breasts and bottoms like Rias, all the women in the naughty books in his room were like that.
'Maybe he couldn't get in the mood to hold someone like me?'
...This won't do, tears are welling up. She couldn't stay here forever. Slowly, she returned to her own room.
…
Three days had passed since Diodora's visit.
The strategy Rias devised against Diodora was to avoid one-on-one combat, instead surrounding and annihilating him with multiple members.
It could hardly be called a strategy, but in other words, it was the best they could do. Everyone was working hard, training individually until the Rating Game.
From Kazuki's knowledge of the original story, it was certain Diodora was a member of the 'Khaos Brigade'.
That power-up was undoubtedly due to the "Ophis's Snake". He had warned Azazel, so he hoped some countermeasures were being prepared.
Everyone was diligently training for the upcoming Game. Amidst this, Kazuki, who couldn't participate in the Game, decided to use this opportunity to experiment with a new ability.
That ability was 'Dimensional Travel'. This world was apparently like an island floating in a great river called the "Dimensional Gap", with several other island-worlds existing. This ability allowed one to cross that river and move to another island.
Having learned this from a book in the Underworld, and considering that Guyver normally existed in a separate dimension, Kazuki wondered if Guyver might be capable of travelling across dimensions, and so he embarked on this experiment.
"Are you really sure about this?"
Rias asked with concern.
"It's fine, I won't push myself. I'll be back before the Game with Diodora."
Exchanging a light kiss with Rias, he moved away from her.
"GUY-VEEEEEEEER!!"
As Kazuki, now in Unit Guyver armor, concentrated his thoughts, a cocoon-like object made of material similar to the Guyver armor appeared from beyond dimensions.
He provisionally called this object, necessary for achieving Gigantic Form, the 'Chrysalis'.
"Alright, I'm off."
"Have a safe trip. Be careful."
Seen off by Rias, Kazuki's body was enveloped by the 'Chrysalis' and then vanished into the Dimensional Gap.
…
After school. Issei Hyoudou was training hard with weights in the training room of Kazuki's mansion.
"---97, 98, 99, 100!"
Finishing his set number of dumbbell exercises, he placed the dumbbells on the floor. As Issei wiped his sweat with a towel, breathing heavily, a drink was offered to him.
"Here you go, Issei-kun."
"Thank y---! Yuma-chan...!"
Issei accepted it before realizing it was Yuma, Raynare, who had given him the drink. He turned his face away and drank. An awkward atmosphere flowed between them.
"You still can't forgive me?"
Yuma, dressed in a maid uniform, murmured sadly.
Raynare, now called Yuma, had been permitted to stay in Kuoh Town, but Azazel hadn't prepared a place for her to live.
As a last resort, Kazuki provided a room in his own mansion, ordering her to work as a maid in return. Since then, Yuma had been working hard as a maid, hoping to earn even a little acceptance.
"...I don't know."
Truthfully, Issei himself didn't know what he wanted with Yuma.
To Issei, Yuma was his first girlfriend. He had seriously fallen for her, seriously thought about marriage, and been eager to make her happy.
But after being cruelly betrayed, his heart was deeply wounded. That wound was still unhealed, and the reappearance of the girl who should have vanished had made it start bleeding again.
"I don't like you or anything anymore. But still, it's like... Ah, I can't explain it well!"
As Issei scratched his head in frustration, Yuma looked at him with a remorseful gaze, then stood up as if having resolved something.
'Issei-kun's heart is deeply wounded. Since I'm the one who hurt him, I have to be the one to heal it…'
Slowly, Yuma began to remove her maid uniform. Issei's eyes were glued to her.
