In his opinion, he'd rather she learn how to control this energy, it would prove useful than ridding herself of it but he couldn't force her.

You can take a horse to the river by force but can't force it to drink out of the river.

"This is for your own good." he tried to convince her one more time.

"I'm sorry, Naruto-nii, I-I can't do it." she grit her teeth in denial.

Naruto grimaced in frustration. Martha dreaded and loathed the power in front of her so much she wouldn't dare use it… It couldn't be helped, she was nothing but a normal human a few weeks ago.

It'd take time before she got accustomed to this.

With a heavy sigh, Naruto closed his eyes shut and took a deep breath.

"I was once in your shoes, only an immortal creature of unfathomable power lived inside me. I hated it… I wanted it gone and the feeling was reciprocated by the creature."

Martha rose her head in surprise as he talked about his past. Something he rarely did. This was probably the first time he's done so.

"We both hated each other guts back then." Naruto chuckled with an amused expression on his face. "Me and that beast now, we're friends... partners. Kurama and I have been through life and death together so many times and with his powers, I have protected myself, protected my precious people… you included.

"If I didn't have Kurama's power, I would have lost to the demon that day." with his piece said, Naruto put his hands in his pocket, resigning on trying to change her mind for the day.

"Sometimes what we consider a burden might be a blessing in disguise, Martha." Naruto turned around and walked away.

"I'll try to find a way to purge your body of this energy… It's only a matter of when, not if."

"W-where are you going?"

"To the real world." He said over his shoulder

"How do I get out of here?"

"This is your mindscape. Staying or leaving is up to you." Naruto waved over his shoulder as his visage disappeared leaving Martha all alone in her mindscape. The only sound present was the purple orb sloshing around.

"Wait…" Martha croaked.

(Flashback ends)

Naruto's words plagued her mind all night. He was just like her but he'd learn to accept that power and use it as his own.

How did he do it? Why? Naruto was too vague about it.

Sleep evaded her all night and here she was today looking to reclaim her normal life back.

Martha was so lost in her thoughts that she bumped into someone on the street. Stumbling back and rubbing her head in pain, she was about to give the stranger a piece of her mind but her words died In her throat when she laid her eyes on said stranger.

"Martha?!" he gasped in surprise.

"Huh, Issei?"

.

.

.

Issei whined in frustration as he waited for his order, eyeing Martha sitting in front of him.

He had been on surveillance all week looking for a perfect spot to enact his long-awaited ambition but all the places he's checked so far were either too expensive for his pocket or too subpar.

The internet wasn't much of a good help either. He just couldn't choose from the plenty list of restaurants so he singled out a few and visited them in person and he was still far from finding a good place.

Issei idly glanced at Martha who seemed deep in thought wondering if she knew some good restaurant in Kuoh she could recommend. His brows creased up as he felt a faint pressure coming from Martha. Though his magic sensing sucks, he was definitely sure what he felt from her was similar to magic.

"Ddraig?" he called out to his partner.

"I can't say for sure but the energy coming off her is quite familiar."

"Is she like us?" Issei wondered.

Unbeknown to Issei, Martha could sense the other entity residing within him. Though she knew he was a devil, the entity residing within him was news.

"Say Issei, How did you remain the same after becoming a devil?"

The question caught the troubled pervert off guard. He blinked owlishly at her before his mind took a trip down memory lane. "At first it was like my whole world had shattered but becoming a devil had been a rollercoaster for me."

Martha stared at him intensely waiting for him to continue.

"I gained new friends,"

The image of the ORC flashed through his mind.

"The power to protect those close to me"

Rias and Asia lingered on his mind.

"...and I can finally achieve my dreams!"

Boobs of diverse shape and sizes filled his mind.

"And… What's your dream?" Martha asked.

"To become the harem king!" he yelled enthusiastically.

Martha shook her head in amusement when the people present in the restaurant stared at Issei in bewilderment. She took a sip of her coffee and asked, "Say, Issei, if you had an evil power inside you, what would you do?"

"Well..." he drawled, adopting a thoughtful look.

"Would you master it or rid yourself of it? Wouldn't using an evil power make you evil?"

Martha donned a serious face as if trying to convince Issei but she was only trying to convince herself. To get him to see and accept where she was coming from, her own ideas.

The Sekiryuutei took in a deep breath, raised a finger and explained, adopting a sagely look on his face. "Martha, there is no such thing as evil power."

Seeing the look of confusion on Martha's face, Issei elaborated further, trying to be as eloquent and simple as possible, "Or let's just say power isn't evil… Defining power is all up to the user." he added after seeing the skeptical look on her face.

Martha recoiled back, dazed for a moment. Issei's words struck home the truth and the logic behind his words were too powerful to refute so she gave the only last shred of opposition she had. "I don't get you, Issei."

The Red Dragon Emperor sighed, finding it hard to put his thoughts about the subject in words that Martha could comprehend.

"Humans tend to ascribe human-like qualities to things that aren't human. Power can only be used for good or evil. It's all up to you whether you use it for good or for evil."
