'Literally, I bet...' Issei thought, amused by the underlying meaning.

"See ya," he waved, swiftly making his way towards the front doors.

He needed to escape before more people began prying into his personal affairs. As he departed, Serafall expressed her concern. "You're leaving already? We barely had a chance to talk about anything!"

"Sorry, Serafall, but I'm ready to get out of here. I'll catch up with you later," Issei waved her off.

She frowned, her concern evident. "Are you sure you don't want to talk? I won't judge you."

"Another time, Serafall... I have some matters to attend to," he casually replied.

Gabriel intercepted him at the front door, catching his attention. "Would you like me to teleport you home?"

"Back off, Gabriel!" Serafall interjected, attempting to push the angel aside.

Raising an eyebrow, Issei addressed her, "No thanks. I came here on my bike."

"Well... your bike is gone, just so you know. That's why I'm offering to teleport you," Gabriel explained.

Issei's eyes widened with anger. "What?!"

Without waiting for Xenovia or Irina's reactions, Issei stormed outside, only to find his motorcycle missing. He clenched his fist in frustration. "What the fuck?!"

"Someone stole your motorcycle?" Irina asked, her disbelief palpable as she and the others caught up to him.

Gritting his teeth, Issei seethed, "Whoever did this is going to pay..."

Right where he had parked his bike, he noticed a piece of paper pinned to the ground. He picked it up and read the note, his anger fading as he perused its contents: 'Sup kid, I borrowed your bike for a bit to make some modifications. You can use mine in the meantime. IT GOES REALLY FAST! I left it at your house.~ RED.'

"Red took my motorcycle? I wonder what he's doing to it," Issei mused, his confusion evident.

"Why would he leave it at your house, though?" Ddraig chimed in.

"I suppose he assumed I could just fly..." Issei pointed out.

Curiosity piqued, Xenovia questioned him, "What does the note say, Issei?"

Issei let out a sigh. "My dad took it for some modifications. He left his bike for me at home."

"Would you like me to teleport you home then?" Gabriel asked once more.

Issei shook his head, a determined expression on his face. "Nah, I can teleport myself. I actually have to run an errand first. But thanks for offering, Gabriel. See you around."

"Remember, it's Gabriel-sensei now, Issei. Don't forget that when we're at school. Take care," the seraph replied cheerfully.

"Issei-chan!" Serafall called out, trying to catch his attention once more.

He turned back to face her, curiosity evident in his eyes. "What is it?"

"I want to talk to you alone when we get the chance. It doesn't have to be right now, but can we make time soon?" Serafall asked, a hopeful tone in her voice.

Issei nodded, acknowledging her request. "Sure, Serafall. I'll let you know when I have some free time."

Her eyes sparkled with excitement. "Okay, just remember that I'm here for you if you ever need someone to talk to."

"Thanks, Serafall," he replied, sending her a brief but appreciative smile.

With that, Issei wasted no time in walking away, his determination propelling him forward. Irina and Xenovia quickly caught up to him, falling into step. Once they were out of earshot from the school, Irina turned to Issei, curiosity getting the better of her. "So, what's this errand you need to run?"

Issei looked down at her, a serious expression on his face. "I'm going to find a new house. My parents will be returning soon, and I'd rather not have them surrounded by angels and devils. Besides, I can't exactly explain why you two are living with me."

"Living with you? Are we burdening you, Issei?" Irina asked, her voice filled with concern.

"I apologize if I came off that way. I simply meant that it would be difficult to explain our living arrangements to my parents and the constant presence of supernatural beings. That's why I think it's best to find a new place," Issei clarified, trying to reassure them.

"It seems a bit extreme. Didn't you just buy my old house? We could stay there, right?" Irina questioned, a hint of confusion in her voice.

"The farther away I am from my parents, the less likely it is that unwanted visitors will show up around them. Plus, I can afford a larger place now, where you both can have your own rooms. I was even thinking of setting up a security system at your old house and a portal for quick travel if needed. Does that make sense?" Issei explained, his plan taking shape.

A spark of understanding flashed in Xenovia's eyes. "Ah, I see. You want to keep your parents away from the chaos and ensure their safety. It's a wise decision, considering the circumstances. And with your newfound wealth, it's certainly feasible to provide a comfortable living space for all of us."

Issei couldn't help but chuckle at her bluntness. "Exactly. I don't think my neighbors would appreciate having fallen angels showing up dressed as...well, you know."

"What do you mean?" Xenovia asked, tilting her head with curiosity.

Issei facepalmed, realizing he had opened that can of worms. "Let's just say they might mistake them for workers in certain districts, like Soaplands or red light areas."

Xenovia's curiosity grew even more. "What are Soaplands?"

Irina blushed, taken aback by the question. "Well, it's..."

"It's a district known for adult entertainment and services. In the Western world, they refer to it as a red light district," Issei interjected, saving Irina from further embarrassment.

Xenovia's eyes widened with curiosity. "Do you frequent these Soaplands often, Issei?"

Issei let out a laugh, shaking his head. "Uh, no. Definitely not."

"In any case, let's get back to the topic at hand," Irina redirected the conversation. "So, we can still live with you at your new house?"

Issei nodded, a warm smile lighting up his face. "Of course. You're both welcome to stay with me if you want. Alternatively, you can choose to stay at your old house. I'm fine with either option."

"After what that devil creep did, I don't want to be away from you, Issei!" Irina exclaimed, determination shining in her eyes.

Issei's smile widened. "I had a feeling you'd say that."
