The Hyoudou residence buzzed with its usual lively chaos, but today felt a little different. Most of the girls were out on one of Rias's carefully orchestrated "group bonding sessions" (which everyone knew was code for discussing harem rotation schedules and light glaring). This left Issei alone with his newly contracted magician, Le Fay Pendragon.
Le Fay stood in the living room, her shoulder-length blonde hair glowing softly in the afternoon light streaming through the windows. She wore a modified Kuoh Academy uniform with subtle magical runes embroidered along the sleeves and hem—her personal flair. At first glance, she looked like an adorable first-year student, but her bright blue eyes held the depth of ancient Pendragon knowledge mixed with genuine, shy excitement.
"I-Ise-sama! Thank you so much for accepting the contract with me," Le Fay said, bowing deeply. Her cheeks flushed a pretty pink. "I promise I'll support you with everything the Pendragon line can offer—spells, barriers, even some of the older forbidden arts if needed!"
Issei scratched the back of his head, flashing his signature goofy grin. "Haha, no need to be so formal, Le Fay-chan! We're comrades now. And honestly... you're super cute, so this is a huge win for me!"
Le Fay's face turned even redder. She had been a massive fan of the Oppai Dragon ever since she first saw his broadcasts while with Vali's team. Joining Team DxD had brought excitement and purpose, but being close to Issei felt warmer—like finding a true home filled with kindness, strength, and just the right amount of chaos.
The contract ritual had been completed the day before under Ravel's strict supervision. A glowing five-year pact sealed with intricate magic circles bound Le Fay's vast magical repertoire to Issei's Boosted Gear. Ravel had muttered something about "yet another rival moving in," but even she admitted Le Fay's talent was exceptional.
Chapter 2: Training... and Growing Closer
"Shall we test our synergy, Ise-sama?" Le Fay suggested eagerly, clapping her hands together. She summoned a small teleportation circle and whisked them both away to a secluded mountain training ground—far from prying eyes and potential interruptions.
Issei activated his Boosted Gear. "Boost!"
Le Fay moved with graceful precision. "Support Magic: Amplification Array!" Golden runes swirled around Issei's arms, multiplying the power of his boosts exponentially. She followed up with layered defensive barriers, precise offensive spells that shaped fireballs like miniature dragons, illusionary decoys to confuse enemies, and gentle healing waves that reminded Issei of Asia's Twilight Healing but carried a unique spark of ancient British mysticism.
"You're incredible, Le Fay-chan!" Issei shouted enthusiastically as he punched through a massive boulder enhanced by her magic. The impact sent shockwaves through the clearing. "With you supporting me, I feel like I could take on the entire Khaos Brigade again!"
Le Fay smiled brightly, but as she cast a complex repositioning spell, she stumbled slightly from mana drain. Issei was there in an instant, catching her in his strong arms. Their faces ended up mere inches apart. Her slim waist felt delicate under his hands, and she smelled faintly of old books, wildflowers, and magic.
"I-I'm sorry... Sometimes the more advanced spells take a toll," she murmured, not pulling away immediately. Her hands rested lightly on his chest, feeling the steady heartbeat beneath.
Issei's mind raced in classic perverted fashion—Soft... warm... smells amazing... Oppai Dragon would approve of magical enhancements!—but he held back. Le Fay wasn't just another girl in the harem. She was kind, incredibly talented, and looked at him with pure admiration and affection.
"You okay?" he asked gently, his voice unusually soft and caring.
Le Fay nodded, gazing up at him. "Yes... Ise-sama, I've admired you for so long. The way you fight for your friends, never give up on your dreams, and even your lecherous but honest side... it all makes you you. It makes me want to stay by your side."
Issei's heart thumped harder. "Le Fay-chan... I want you here too. Not just as my magician, but as someone important to me."
Chapter 3: The First Date – Magic and Romance
That evening, after they returned home, Issei worked up the courage to ask her properly. "Hey, Le Fay-chan... would you go on a date with me? Just the two of us?"
Le Fay's eyes widened like saucers before she beamed. "Y-Yes! I'd love to!"
He planned a perfect mix for her: a peaceful walk through a scenic park with cherry blossoms, a stop at a quiet bookstore specializing in old tomes (where Le Fay excitedly explained various grimoires while Issei nodded along enthusiastically, even if he only understood half), and then a sweets café where he bought her the largest parfait on the menu.
They sat together on a bench overlooking the town as the sun began to set. Le Fay fed him a spoonful of the dessert, giggling when some cream got on his nose. "You really are like the hero from the stories, Ise-sama."
A minor stray devil disturbance suddenly interrupted their peaceful moment—nothing too dangerous, but enough to test their new bond. Le Fay reacted instantly, casting protective barriers around Issei while amplifying his Boosted Gear. Issei charged forward with enhanced power, delivering a Dress Break combo that left the stray stunned and mostly exposed. Le Fay finished it with a precise binding spell, sealing the threat neatly.
"Teamwork!" Issei cheered, giving her a high-five. Le Fay laughed brightly, her magic still sparkling around them.
Back on the balcony of the Hyoudou residence under the stars, Le Fay leaned against his shoulder.
"Ise-sama... do you think I could be more than just your contracted magician?" she asked softly, her voice shy but hopeful.
Issei wrapped a strong arm around her. "You already are, Le Fay-chan. You're part of the family now. I like you—a lot. Your smile, your incredible magic, the way you believe in me even when things get crazy. This contract is just the beginning of something awesome."
Le Fay's eyes shimmered with happy tears. She stood on her tiptoes and kissed his cheek tenderly, then—gathering her courage—gave him a soft, sweet kiss on the lips. Golden magical sparks danced around them like fireflies.
"I'll support you forever, Ise-sama," she whispered. "As your magician... and as someone who loves you."
From inside the house, Rias's teasing voice called out, "Don't monopolize him too much, Le Fay! But... welcome to the club." There was warmth and acceptance in her tone—the harem continued to grow stronger with every new bond.
Epilogue Tease
In the days that followed, Le Fay's presence deepened. She trained with Rossweisse on combined magic styles, cheered loudly during Issei's Rating Game preparations, and shared many quiet, affectionate moments that melted his heart (while also inspiring plenty of creative "Oppai Dragon" fantasies involving magical enhancements).
The Red Dragon Emperor's legend grew brighter—with a brilliant young witch by his side, ready to weave powerful spells of love, protection, and victory.
