Fate DxD: Archer Reborn

Chapter 11 - 9 - Helping Asia

As an apology to Asia, Shirou invited Asia to a family restaurant to treat her to a meal.

And at one of the tables in the restaurant, Asia and Shirou sat face to face.

"Shirou-san, I'm so glad that I met you!" said Asia. "You are the first Japanese person that I can talk to!"

"I've learned Italian languange a little," Shirou said. "So I understand what you are saying, Asia-san, you can't speak Japanese, right? But can you speak English?"

(Hey Archer, I know you understand Latin and Italian because you learned it when you were a Counter Guardian) Zelretch said. (But do you realize that you can immediately speak fluently with that girl not because of your ability but because of the evil pieces in your body that make you understand all the languages ​​on Earth?)

(I'm aware of that Zelretch so don't be fussy!) Shirou said.

(Author Note: In dxd when Issei became a devil, Issei can understand Asian words just fine, because Rias said when you became a devil, you will understand any language in the world. And when Shirou talks to Asia, he uses Italian of course)

"Ah, yes," Asia answered. "I can speak in English."

"Why didn't you try using English when you arrived in Japan?" Shirou asked.

"I-I forgot about it," Asia answered with a reddened face cause of embarrassment.

"By the way, why are you in Kuoh town?" Shirou really wondered why nuns like Asia doing in Kuoh.

"I was placed as a nun in this city by the Vatican," Asia answered with a slightly odd look on her face.

"So you are a nun from the Vatican stationed in the Catholic church in this city, Asia-san?" Said Shirou who felt a bit strange with Asia's facial expression when Asia answered his question.

"Y-Yes," Asia answered.

(If I am not mistaken based on the memories of me in this world, the only Catholic church in Kuoh has been abandoned, why did this nun say that she would be placed in the abandoned church?) Shirou said in his heart.

"But Asia-san from what I knows, the only Catholic church in the city of Kuoh is abandoned and no one lives in there, even though the building itself is still intact," Shirou said.

"No way!" Asia said. "E-even though my boss said that the church in this city needs additional people, have I been cheated?"

From the tone of voice and expression on Asia's face from the time Shirou asked her about why Asia was in Kuoh. Shirou immediately knew that Asia was lying to him. But when he saw the way Asia lied to him Shirou immediately realized that Asia didn't seem like a person who liked to lie. Because Asia's face looks very uncomfortable when she lied to him.

"Asia-san, I can see that you are a good person," Shirou said. "But why did you have to lie to me all this time?"

Asia really felt confused why Shirou could tell that she was lying. Asia really feels bad for Shirou.

"I-I didn't try to lie to you Shirou-san," Said Asia. "Bu-But."

"If you have a problem, feel free to tell me what is your problem," Shirou said.

"I'll try to help you with what I can."

"I'm sorry Shirou-san," Asia said. "But I'm afraid that you won't be able to help me."

Asia immediately stood up and was about to come out of the restaurant, but Shirou immediately held Asia's clothes and said:

"Asia-san, if the problem you have has something to do with the Sacred Gear you have, I'm sure that I can really help you!"

Asia was confused when she found out that Shirou know she is lying. Now she was confused and surprised why Shirou could find out about the Sacred Gear that was in her.

"Shi-Shirou-san, how did you know that I have a Sacred Gear?" Asked Asia.

"Because I also have the Sacred Gear just like you Asia-san," Shirou answered. "And one of the special abilities possessed by my Sacred Gear is to sense the existence of another Sacred Gear, so Asia-san can you tell me now what's your real problem?"

Asia was rather surprised because Shirou also had a Sacred Gear like that, and despite knowing that Asia still wasn't sure whether Shirou could help her or not. But after feeling the sincerity of Shirou who clearly wanted to help her, Asia felt that at least she had to share the story of her problems with Shirou.

Asia then began to tell all her problems to Shirou.

"In the past, my mother was abandoned me in front of a church as an infant and I was raised there. And during my childhood, I awakened my Sacred Gear Twilight Healing. When I want to heal the injured puppy that I found. The scene when I awakened Twilight Healing and heal the puppy was witnessed by one of the Catholic Church members causing me to become a Holy Maiden. But, in all that time I didn't have any friends or people to talk to since most people viewed me as tool to heal a wounds.

At some point, there was a devil who have grave injury and I heal that devil. And because of that, I got a banishment from the Church with people labeling me as a "witch". With no place to go, I had to rely on the Fallen Angels."

"So that's your problem Asia-san," Shirou said. "You want to leave the Fallen Angels but it's hard for you to leave them because you have no place to go."

"That's right Shirou-san," Asia said while crying. "I want to leave the stray exorcist and fallen angel groups because all they do is evil act but that's impossible because besides I don't have anywhere else to go and they won't allow me to go because of the Twilight Healing that I have. "

"How about now you go home with me to the house where I live Asia-san," Shirou said. "Then after that we will discuss again what is the most appropriate way to help you?"

"Shi-Shirou-san you don't need ..."

Asia wanted to tell Shirou that there was no need to help herself. Because if Shirou helps himself then Shirou will get into trouble but before Asia can say that, Shirou has spoken first and said:

"I feel I really need to help you Asia-san! Because I also have a problem with those fallen angels!"

"W-what do you mean, Shirou-san?" asked Asia who was confused by Shirou's words.

"I'll tell you later at my house," Shirou answered. "Now let's go!"

"Y-yes," Asia said.

Shirou pulled Asia's hand and walked out of the family restaurant where they were chatting. And behind Asia and Shirou who walked out there was a man wearing a priest's clothes with a face like a psychopath watching Shirou and Asia.

"Ehehehehe Asia-tan asking for the help from a little devil from the Gremory group! This is great! Ahahahahhahahaahahha. "
