Do they get to the church without incident?

Not exactly.

As they walked, the nun noticed a boy having scraped his knee and crying. She dashed over to him, and asked him if he was alright, adding, "Children shouldn't have to suffer scrapes like this..." She held her hands over the skinned knee, and they started glowing.

Issei, who had stopped to wait for her, paused as he stared at the magic she was using. He recognized it as similar to his own Sacred Gear. "...she has one too?" he wondered aloud to himself as he watched the kid's injury heal.

The kid got up as the nun continued to reassure him, before running to his mom, and pointing at Asia. The mother immediately got suspicious, and decided to pull him away, telling him not to talk to strange people. It didn't help that the girl's attempts to explain giving the boy first aid was clearly not understood.

Issei immediately started to yell after the mother, but the nun told him, "No, it's okay, I'm used to that..."

"...did you understand what she said?" Issei asked, and she shook her head, sadly.

"Not the words, no... but I understood enough..." she answered.

"Thanks, Miss!" the kid shouted, even as his mother dragged him off, waving. The nun paused, and looked at Issei curiously.

"He said "Thanks,"" he explained with a grin as they got underway. Good kid, knew when not to listen to his mother when she was being suspicious of someone who had literally just healed him. Maybe a little bit of caution was warranted, but not outright hostility. As they got underway again, he then asked her, "So... what you did there..."

"It's a healing ability," she explained. "Truly a gift from God..." He stiffened slightly, expecting a slight bit of pain, but thankfully, simply saying God's name in something not a prayer didn't seem to count. That was a relief.

As they hurried towards the church, she then tripped and dropped her luggage again. Issei chuckled ruefully. She seemed to be a clutz. "Here, let me help you with that again..." he said, immediately moving to do so.

Do they continue to get along well?
