Throwing a shoulder around her shoulder, he pulled the now blushing nun into his side as he declared melodramatically, "Great Scott! You're right, Asia. The sun is bright, but don't worry. I'll protect you from the evil sun."

"What the hell is with that? You mocked me when I said the sun was bright?!" Raynare demanded upon seeing his shielding Asia from the sun.

Shooting her a teasing grin, Naruto shrugged and exclaimed, "That's because you were just messing with me. You and I aren't overly affected by sunlight. The same can't be said for Asia." Which was true. The stronger the devil, the less affected by light they are. Turning away from Raynare, Naruto added with a huff, "Plus, you and Asia are completely different. Asia's all cute and innocent. I can't help but want to hug her and protect her. If I tried to hug and protect you from the sun, you'd knee me in the nuts."

Raynare opened her mouth to protest, but paused and thought for several seconds. She then confessed without shame, "Good point. I'd totally do that."

"See. Now stop complaining," Naruto said.

Just shaking her head with a sigh, Raynare then looked around her before claiming, "Might want to stop playing around though. You're attracting a lot of attention."

Naruto lifted his head and looked around. They'd arrived at the entrance to the school, and students were milling around.

Many of them were looking at Naruto. Not a surprise since Naruto was basically doing his best to envelop the tiny Asia.

Looking down at the blushing Asia, Naruto questioned, "Want me to let go, Asia?"

Stuttering slightly, she finally told him, "I-I d-don't…mind this."

"You heard the lady," Naruto said as he lifted his head again.

Turning to the kids watching them, Naruto used a finger to pull an eyelid down and stuck out his tongue at the spectators.

A number of the students looked ticked at the taunt, especially the males, but they eventually turned and continued moving.

Raynare just held her face in exasperation as she groaned out, "You're so weird."

"Nothing wrong with that," Naruto immediately quipped.

Sighing and shaking her head, she started walking away as she announced, "I'm going to class."

"Hold on, Raynare-san," Asia called out. Reluctantly separating from Naruto, she jogged up to the fallen angel. She then dug in her bag before pulling out a bento wrapped in a purple cloth. Holding it out, she said, "Here's your lunch."

Raynare took it before muttering as she quickly left, "Thanks."

Naruto smiled a bit at the scene. Asia had managed to get over her fear of Raynare over the past few weeks, and had done her best to improve her relationship with the fallen angel.

The results were mixed, but seemed generally positive. Raynare wasn't completely ignoring Asia anymore, and that was a win in Naruto's book.

Naruto had to take every inch of progress he could in integrating Raynare into the household.

Asia came back to Naruto and handed him a bento wrapped in a golden cloth. "Here you are, Naruto-san."

Naruto took it with a wide smile as he gushed, "Thanks, Asia. I really appreciate you making me a lunch everyday."

"I'm happy to, Naruto-san," Asia claimed brightly.

The two started walking towards class. Naruto tilted his head in thought as something occurred to him. Turning to Asia, he questioned, "Why aren't you wearing the cross Selene made for you? You should be immune to sunlight now."

"I have it right here," Asia confessed as she reached into her bag. She then pulled out the golden cross as she explained, "I decided not to wear it at school. I fear it might draw unnecessary attention. The other students know I used to be a nun, but the magical aura of the cross is powerful."

Naruto nodded in understanding. As the cross was so powerful, as an object that directly cancels out the system of the Biblical God, its aura of power was rather noticeable.

Even a regular human could sense it in close proximity if they are somewhat supernaturally sensitive or observant.

They didn't need people becoming suspicious from Asia's cross giving them a weird feeling.

Naruto still told Asia seriously, "Alright, but make sure you have it on you at all times. It's ability to protect you from the weaknesses of devils is too valuable to dismiss. It could save your life someday."

"I know, Naruto-san," Asia claimed before admitting with a small smile as she cradled the cross, "You don't need to worry though. I make sure to always have it close. It means too much to me to forget about it."

"Good," Naruto replied with satisfaction. Silence followed for several seconds before Naruto asked, "Looking forward to today?"

"Oh yes. We are playing softball in physical education today. It's my first time," Asia explained enthusiastically.

Naruto sweat dropped slightly at her excitement, since Asia was not talented at sports. Not at all. She's the type that will oftentimes trip over her own feet.

He decided not to point it out, and listened patiently as she talked about how a number of the girls wanted to play with her.

"Ah, Asia-chan. Over here," a girl called out as they entered their classroom, gesturing Asia towards a group of girls talking together.

Asia looked towards Naruto for permission, so he just chuckled and said, "Go on. I'm not your handler."

"Okay," Asia said as she moved closer to the group.

Naruto watched her go with a smile before heading over to his own seat. His grin widened as he saw the person sitting behind him. Slapping a hand on the person's back, Naruto exclaimed loudly, "Sup, Issei-kun."

"Ahhh! Don't do that, Naruto-sama. So sore," Issei groaned out from where he was laying facedown on his desk.

"Come on. Don't be so down," Naruto said as he laid his bags down. He then plopped down facing the wrong way in his seat so that he was looking at Issei. Poking him several times, Naruto added, "Don't be a drama queen, Issei-kun."

Issei's head shot up before he grabbed Naruto's collar. Shaking him back and forth, Issei exclaimed as he cried anime tears,
