-Past-
When Issei got inside the house, he sees a ghost controlling the dolls.
The ghost thought it can scare him just like the others by doing this but Issei just calmly look towards her.
He ignore the flying dolls and look straight at the ghost, and that gave the ghost a chill even though she's already dead.
Especially after she saw the glowing red eyes of Issei and when his eyes become slit like a Dragon she become frozen in fear.
So Issei calmly look at her and said:
Issei - Go away or I'm gonna eat you.
He threatened the ghost and it's super effective! The ghost literally got scared into the afterlife, after that she's gone from the world and the mansion become automatically purified itself.
All the dolls disappeared into thin air.
-Back to the present-
When Issei brought Yunyun inside the mansion she become amazed by its sheer size.
Yunyun - Wow. So you live alone in this place Ise-san?
Issei - Pretty much. Now there's a lot of empty room around you can choose whichever you want, mine is at the middle door there.
Yunyun become reminded she's gonna live together with the opposite gender, and she couldn't help become nervous because its the first time she has done this before.
But she calm herself down because she knew Issei is not the one who gonna do indecent stuff against the opposite gender, and he's pretty gentle inside.
Even though he seems calm and serious all the time but when the time comes he always flash her a soothing smile, and he always treat her with gentle and care.
Even though she sometimes mess something up he never get mad at her and just calmly give her advice and encouragement.
He patiently guide her if she's stuck at something.
But for some reason people always looks wary and afraid at him. Not that she really care though because she's happy just by having him as a friend.
And she admit he's the best friend she ever had... Even though she never have friends before, except maybe her rival(self proclaimed), Megumin.
Recently she started to look Issei at different light, there's never anyone who treat her the way he is before.
Even her parents sometimes isn't as gentle as him, and she felt something twitch inside her heart every time she saw his smile.
She still never saw his face until this day though, because she doesn't want to intrude against someone privacy. So she never asked him to show his face.
She once asked him if he's a Crimson Demon Clan member because of his red eyes, but he says no and she can't really deny it because she never see nor heard about him before in the village.
After all even though he has red eyes, its not crimson like her clansmen. Its more like wine red rather than crimson.
So with that she fully believes him, after all she never see anyone outside her village who has crimson eyes so far.
And she knows Issei doesn't have a 'special' case like the rest of her village aka the Chuunibyou case.
Even though she also has a certain degree of Chuuni but she won't let him know that.
Yunyun - Un! Thank you for having me, Ise-san!
Issei just calmly gave her a smile once more and there it is again, the twitch she felt when looking at his smile.
Issei - Um. take care of me too. Yunyun.
Yunyun - Hai!
After that they went their separate ways and go to their respective room.
Yunyun choose the room right beside him, and while she's sorting her luggage she smells something delicious from outside.
When she went outside her room she follow the smell and headed towards the dining room.
And there's bunch of delicious looking food on the table.
Yunyun couldn't help become hungry after smelling and seeing the food on the table.
Then she heard footsteps from behind her.
Yunyun - Wahhh! Is this your cooking Ise-s-...!!!
When Yunyun turned around to ask Issei she become frozen in place.
Because finally she sees her Ise-san face for the first time.
That out of the world handsome face, that perfect body, that enchanting wine red eyes even though it gave a sharp ambiance it also gave a certain gentleness at the same time, his long silky dark brown hair, his fair skin that could make even woman jealous.
He usually wear his jacket and hood on so people can't clearly see his perfect body and handsome face. But now that he only wear a black shirt with two button undone from the top down, he gives this certain sexy vibe that she can't describe.
Even though she knew he have a fit body before but she never imagine his body would be this perfect.
Her eyes couldn't help become misty while looking at him now, she could swore she might have a nosebleed at this rate.
Thankfully he snapped her out of his delusion.
Issei - Yunyun? What's wrong? Are you fine?
Issei couldn't help become worried when looking at her like that.
Yunyun hurriedly shake her head and turn her face away so she won't become lost in delusion once more after looking at his face.
Yunyun - I-I-I'm fine! W-Wow this sure looks delicious! Did you make all this Ise-san?
She tries to change the topic, but Issei won't have any of it and put the food from his hand down on the table and went towards Yunyun once more.
He bent down his body so he match her height, after all he's taller than Yunyun.
Yunyun once again saw his handsome face but this time from up close.
Issei - What do you mean you're fine, your face looks red. Are you having a fever? Here let me check.
He proceeded to stick their forehead together to check her temperature, and Yunyun is finally at her limit.
Her face went full red with a smoke coming out from her head and her eyes are spinning, and finally she fainted with a small nosebleed on her nose.
Issei - Yunyun!
Issei hurriedly catch her body from falling.
Issei - Hang in there, Yunyun!
Issei still doesn't realize why she fainted that way. While Yunyun have hearts on her eyes and she has this silly smile on her face even though she's fainted already.
After all she's at the age of her puberty and she has interest in the opposite gender like normal girls her age. So its perfectly normal for her to react that way especially after seeing a perfect man like Issei.
-Skip-
After a while Yunyun finally stir awake, she slowly open her eyes.
And what she sees make her become stupefied once more, because she's looking up to Issei face at close range.
Issei at this moment put her head on his lap while he's reading some books, its the lap pillow position.
When she set her eyes on his calm face while reading the book she become entranced once more.
Issei - Oh. You're awake Yunyun. You scared me back there, I thought something happened to you, thankfully you're alright.
Issei saw her awoke finally, and he gave her a smile and put down the book he's reading.
Then he proceeded to pat her head gently.
Yunyun almost fainted once more after he does all this, but she held herself back and hastily get up from the lap pillow albeit feeling reluctant in doing so.
Yunyun - U-Um! I'm fine! T-thank you for taking care of me Ise-san!
She tried to avert her face from directly looking at his face.
Yunyun - L-let's eat Ise-san!
Issei - Um. Let's eat.
Issei stand up from the sofa and headed towards the dining table once more.
Yunyun follow closely behind him while gazing at his direction with a red face, she's still out of it a little bit because her heart rapidly thumping at this moment.
Then they have an awkward dinner together, because Yunyun keep looking down with a red face while sneaking a quick peek at his direction.
Issei at first become amused but then choose to let her be for now.
Even though the food is the most delicious food Yunyun ever tasted, she can't properly react to it because she's still in her delusion.
So after she finishes her food she offered to wash the dishes without any chance for rebuttal and took all the empty plates on the table back to the kitchen.
She practically dashes towards the kitchen while bringing the dishes along with her.
Issei become stupefied at first then he just chuckled at her reaction.
After some thinking Issei realized she must have fainted because of his face, but he just couldn't help stop teasing her after she's awake for some reason.
Now he knows what Akeno feels when she's teasing him back then, not that he care anymore.
He concluded its because she's pretty naive and gullible.
And This must be the first time she saw a handsome face. Unknown to him Yunyun have seen a lot of handsome face before but none can give her this kind of reaction.
Back at Yunyun.
She washes the dishes while still having a red face, and what's on her mind at this moments are
'Uwaaaa! Ise-san face is so handsome! How can someone be that handsome! Its pretty much a crime for having that kind of face! Uuuuu~ my heart can't stop beating loudly for sometime now! Ise-san no baka!'
After that they both went to sleep but not before Issei saying "Good night" at her, and she respond with a stutter "G-g-good night! Ise-san!" then she hurriedly close the door to her room.
Issei just chuckled once more at her reaction.
-The next day-
Yunyun have a delusional dream where she went to marry Issei, and she keep having this goofy smile on her face while still sleeping.
Yunyun - Ehehehe~ Ise-san~, I love you too~
Issei is already awake earlier and he's doing a meditation inside his room to stabilize his 'Aura'.
He started learning to hide his 'Aura' after some thinking, because his 'Aura' can give away his location in case he want to infiltrate a certain area or when he utilize his skill.
After a while he stopped his meditation and head towards the kitchen to prepare breakfast for both of him and Yunyun.
Not long after he done setting up the breakfast, Yunyun came out of his room.
Issei - Good morning.
Issei gave her a greeting.
And Yunyun couldn't help blushed once more after all that but not forgetting to respond "G-good morning, Ise-san."
So they both started eating their breakfast, and this time Yunyun properly give Issei's food a compliment and he just respond with his usual calm smile along with "Glad you like it" words.
Then they both head towards the guild.
-At the guild-
Issei and Yunyun went to do their perspective set of actions, Issei went to the quest bulletin while Yunyun went to resupply some of the necessities.
Even though Issei doesn't need it but he doesn't want Yunyun becoming over reliant on him, so he decided to let her do her own preparation.
Issei once more sees a weird companion request posted on the bulletin, such as
1. Looking for party member, the current party consist of a Crusader and Thief at the moment, preferably looking for a brute and violent new member, any class is fine.
2. Looking for party member, the current party consist of a Magician and a Priest, there's three member at the moment, including a top tier class. Sincerely want to save the world by having a crusade against the demon lord, even novice is welcomed. How about it? Shall we save the world together?
3. Recruiting, the team consist of a super beautiful and outstanding Arch Priest and impolite weakest class hikiNEET, wants to carries on journey of Heroes and take an exciting and warm happy risky adventure with the super beautiful and outstanding Arch Priest, that guided by the Goddess of Water herself? hurry and come join us! The condition to enter the team are only limited for a top tier class (And agrees that the Eris Cult is a Cult of the heathen).
How to say this... the first one the first part is very normal but at the end what's up with the brute and violent part?
While the second one its all very normal and all that but crusade against the demon lord? It seems a nice objective right? but this is a beginner city... Why would a beginner want to crusade against a demon lord this early on?
As for the third one... No words needed to point out the weirdness...
Only now Issei realized that this world is pretty weird for some obvious reason, first Yunyun case, and now this...
He now started doubting if this world is truly the world where Semiramis wants him to go or not.
He found out there's bunch of cult existed in this world.
But the most famous one is the Eris cult and Axis cult.
Eris cult is the national religion of the Belzerg Kingdom, people believes Goddess Eris as the one who control the fortune of this world or goes by the name Goddess of Fortune Eris.
And it also control some life and death that happens in this world, that's also why Eris cult is the most famous cult in this world even the currency is named after her which is Eris currency.
But Axis cult is famous for the opposite reason...
Namely known for their notoriety, their follower known to be having some screw loose or just plain weird in the head.
They will stop at nothing for their missionary job, from fraud to exhortation, etc.
They also always slander the Eris cult such as evil cult, heathen cult, crazy cult, etc. They will even smash the windows of Eris church and beat up the believer of Eris cult. This is also why some people thought Axist cult belong to the Demon Lord because of their notoriety.
That's also why no one willing to get involved with the Axis cult, now Issei knows what he almost got himself into back then when he just arrived at this world.
The one who told him Axis cult shall bring him salvation, and that little girl pamflet if he recall correctly it also has Axis cult symbol on it...
This cult believe in the Goddess of Water Aqua, perhaps the one who posted the third request is one of the Axis cult member?
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!

You scared me back there, I thought something happened to you, thankfully you're alright.Issei saw her awoke finally, and he gave her a smile and put down the book he's reading.Then he proceeded to pat her head gently.Yunyun almost fainted once more after he does all this, but she held herself back and hastily get up from the lap pillow albeit feeling reluctant in doing so.Yunyun - U-Um! I'm fine! T-thank you for taking care of me Ise-san!She tried to avert her face from directly looking at his face.Yunyun - L-let's eat Ise-san!Issei - Um. Let's eat.Issei stand up from the sofa and headed towards the dining table once more.Yunyun follow closely behind him while gazing at his direction with a red face, she's still out of it a little bit because her heart rapidly thumping at this moment.Then they have an awkward dinner together, because Yunyun keep looking down with a red face while sneaking a quick peek at his direction.Issei at first become amused but then choose to let her be for now.Even though the food is the most delicious food Yunyun ever tasted, she can't properly react to it because she's still in her delusion.So after she finishes her food she offered to wash the dishes without any chance for rebuttal and took all the empty plates on the table back to the kitchen.She practically dashes towards the kitchen while bringing the dishes along with her.Issei become stupefied at first then he just chuckled at her reaction.After some thinking Issei realized she must have fainted because of his face, but he just couldn't help stop teasing her after she's awake for some reason.Now he knows what Akeno feels when she's teasing him back then, not that he care anymore.He concluded its because she's pretty naive and gullible.And This must be the first time she saw a handsome face. Unknown to him Yunyun have seen a lot of handsome face before but none can give her this kind of reaction.Back at Yunyun.She washes the dishes while still having a red face, and what's on her mind at this moments are'Uwaaaa! Ise-san face is so handsome! How can someone be that handsome! Its pretty much a crime for having that kind of face! Uuuuu~ my heart can't stop beating loudly for sometime now! Ise-san no baka!'After that they both went to sleep but not before Issei saying "Good night" at her, and she respond with a stutter "G-g-good night! Ise-san!" then she hurriedly close the door to her room.Issei just chuckled once more at her reaction.-The next day-Yunyun have a delusional dream where she went to marry Issei, and she keep having this goofy smile on her face while still sleeping.Yunyun - Ehehehe~ Ise-san~, I love you too~Issei is already awake earlier and he's doing a meditation inside his room to stabilize his 'Aura'.He started learning to hide his 'Aura' after some thinking, because his 'Aura' can give away his location in case he want to infiltrate a certain area or when he utilize his skill.After a while he stopped his meditation and head towards the kitchen to prepare breakfast for both of him and Yunyun.Not long after he done setting up the breakfast, Yunyun came out of his room.Issei - Good morning.Issei gave her a greeting.And Yunyun couldn't help blushed once more after all that but not forgetting to respond "G-good morning, Ise-san."So they both started eating their breakfast, and this time Yunyun properly give Issei's food a compliment and he just respond with his usual calm smile along with "Glad you like it" words.Then they both head towards the guild.-At the guild-Issei and Yunyun went to do their perspective set of actions, Issei went to the quest bulletin while Yunyun went to resupply some of the necessities.Even though Issei doesn't need it but he doesn't want Yunyun becoming over reliant on him, so he decided to let her do her own preparation.Issei once more sees a weird companion request posted on the bulletin, such as1. Looking for party member, the current party consist of a Crusader and Thief at the moment, preferably looking for a brute and violent new member, any class is fine.2. Looking for party member, the current party consist of a Magician and a Priest, there's three member at the moment, including a top tier class. Sincerely want to save the world by having a crusade against the demon lord, even novice is welcomed. How about it? Shall we save the world together?3. Recruiting, the team consist of a super beautiful and outstanding Arch Priest and impolite weakest class hikiNEET, wants to carries on journey of Heroes and take an exciting and warm happy risky adventure with the super beautiful and outstanding Arch Priest, that guided by the Goddess of Water herself? hurry and come join us! The condition to enter the team are only limited for a top tier class And agrees that the Eris Cult is a Cult of the heathen.How to say this... the first one the first part is very normal but at the end what's up with the brute and violent part?While the second one its all very normal and all that but crusade against the demon lord? It seems a nice objective right? but this is a beginner city... Why would a beginner want to crusade against a demon lord this early on?As for the third one... No words needed to point out the weirdness...Only now Issei realized that this world is pretty weird for some obvious reason, first Yunyun case, and now this...He now started doubting if this world is truly the world where Semiramis wants him to go or not.He found out there's bunch of cult existed in this world.But the most famous one is the Eris cult and Axis cult.Eris cult is the national religion of the Belzerg Kingdom, people believes Goddess Eris as the one who control the fortune of this world or goes by the name Goddess of Fortune Eris.And it also control some life and death that happens in this world, that's also why Eris cult is the most famous cult in this world even the currency is named after her which is Eris currency.But Axis cult is famous for the opposite reason...Namely known for their notoriety, their follower known to be having some screw loose or just plain weird in the head.They will stop at nothing for their missionary job, from fraud to exhortation, etc.They also always slander the Eris cult such as evil cult, heathen cult, crazy cult, etc. They will even smash the windows of Eris church and beat up the believer of Eris cult. This is also why some people thought Axist cult belong to the Demon Lord because of their notoriety.That's also why no one willing to get involved with the Axis cult, now Issei knows what he almost got himself into back then when he just arrived at this world.The one who told him Axis cult shall bring him salvation, and that little girl pamflet if he recall correctly it also has Axis cult symbol on it...This cult believe in the Goddess of Water Aqua, perhaps the one who posted the third request is one of the Axis cult member?
