The God of the storm and seas was known for his impulsiveness and ferocious temper. The day when he went on a rampage and completely destroyed Amaterasu's rice fields, ditches, palaces, and shrines only angered his sister. When Amaterasu pleaded with him to stop, the God of the storms and seas threw a skinned animal at her handmaidens while they were working.

This caused Amaterasu to become enraged, as a result, she hid herself in the Heavenly Cave. It was a terrible day for the world. Without the light of Amaterasu, the world was plunged into darkness and began to deteriorate.

'Humph.' Odin thought as he looked around the information room of the Phenex mansion.

Amaterasu had eventually come out of the Heavenly Cave, all because she had never seen herself before when she looked at the mirror. When the boulder of the Heavenly Cave was sealed, Amaterasu resolved to return to the Celestial Plain and give light to the world once again.

Odin scoffed as he crossed his arms.

In all honestly, it still puzzled Odin to no end on why Amaterasu had conceived the young man in front of him in the first place.

Was it on a whim? Was it because she was bored and felt like it? Or was it a way for the world and the Universe to retain life, even if she was not around to supply it herself?

Odin only knew one of the reasons Amaterasu had sent her son away. One of the reasons was due to Susanoo's antics. Amaterasu didn't trust her brother at all anymore. Even when Susanoo had brought the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi to his sister as a form of a gift, Amaterasu still didn't give her brother her trust back. She was worried that if Susanoo's antics were to start again, then her son might have been the target.

Susanoo was one of the most temperamental Shinto Gods, and that was exactly one of the reasons why Amaterasu shielded her son from him, and sent him to Earth. Others might call her abandoning her son as a form of weakness and cowardliness.

But Odin knew that the Goddess of the Sun regretted her decision deeply. To the point that she was afraid her son wouldn't want to see her at all. She knew she deserved it if her son didn't want to see her.

Despite not being in her son's early life, Amaterasu made it a point to emphasize herself as the manifestation of the Sun. She knew where her son was at every moment of every day, just by sensing his energy. There were times when she would manipulate the Sun's energy to allow it to rise up earlier then usual, just so she could feel the energy of her son. Odin knew that Amaterasu hated it when the Moon began to rise as soon as the Sun descended, signifying that her brother Tsukiyomi-no-mikoto had manifested to take his place as the God of the Moon.

Odin sent his gaze back to Issei Hyoudou, who appeared to be greatly confused on why Rossweisse was slamming her hands on the ground, crying out that it wasn't her fault that she couldn't get a boyfriend.

Azazel chuckled as he rubbed his head. Once again choosing to ignore his bodyguard's cries, Odin immersed himself in his thoughts.

That was the reason why Odin was in Japan right now. The Three-Legged Crow, also known as Yatagarasu, had been sent from Amaterasu to deliver a message to Odin. Initially Odin traveled for the intention of going to a Oppai Club with Azazel. In his opinion, he didn't actually mind doing a deed for the Goddess of the Universe. Especially when it involved her son.

Shaking his head to clear his thoughts, Odin set his sights to Rossweisse, who seemed to be recovering.

"Geez, Rossweisse. Are you done already? Just because you don't have a boyfriend, doesn't mean you need to shout it out to the world."

Issei widened his eyes as he saw Rossweisse's eyes starting to wetten with tears. The young man didn't really know what to do in this situation. Before he could do anything to help Rossweisse, the girl suddenly fell on her knees and started smacking the floor.

"T-T-That has nothing to do with this! I didn't choose to not to have a boyfriennnnd! I didn't choose to still be a virginnnnn!"

Odin chuckled as he crossed his arms, and looked back to Issei, who looked like he wanted to get these people out of the Phenex Mansion as soon as possible. And judging by the look on Issei's face, Odin wouldn't put it past him.

"So, Issei Hyoudou. I would like to ask something of you."

"Huh? You would?"

'What would a Norse God want with me?'

"Yep," Odin answered as he nodded. "I'm visiting Japan for a while, and I've been thinking. I need another bodyguard other than the 17-year old virgin on the floor…"

"HEY!" Rossweisse shouted in indignation.

Chuckling in amusement, Odin then brought his attention back to Issei.

"How would you like to be my bodyguard?"

"Where exactly are you going?"

Odin suddenly sent Azazel a wide smirk, and the Fallen Angel returned the same facial gesture.

"We're going…to an OPPAI CLUB!" The two shouted in glee.

{…Didn't see that coming, did you partner?}

'No. No, I did not.'

Outside of the Phenex Mansion

"So you're acting as Odin-sama's bodyguard?"

"Yeah."

Xuelan tilted her head as she sat next to Issei. The two sat on the rooftop of the Phenex mansion, enjoying the breeze of the wind.

"So," Xuelan began as she crossed her arms. "Why did you agree?"

Issei, sitting with his arms behind his head, shrugged as he looked up at the Chinese Devil.

"Technically, both Odin and Azazel were clients. I wouldn't be a fair person if I didn't heed to their request. Besides, there was no school today, so I've got a lot of time."

Xuelan blinked several times as she listened to Issei's words. The Chinese Devil rose an eyebrow in response at the young man's words, but she didn't word out her opinion.

Issei inwardly sighed as he looked over to Xuelan.
