Soon, Kyoya arrived at the Occult Research Club with Irina and Xenovia.

Everyone was already there and gathered together.

When they saw Kyoya enter, they were about to greet him—only to notice two girls in Church attire following close behind.

"Kyoya, who are these two?" Rias asked, frowning slightly, her tone curious.

"Well, I found them standing around like statues at the gates of Kuoh Academy. They said they were here on some sort of mission. Since you're the Devil who oversees this territory, I figured it was best to bring them straight to you." I explained casually, then plopped down on the sofa.

"I see." Rias nodded, her gaze fixed on Irina and Xenovia.

Meanwhile, Akeno offered everyone tea with her usual warm smile—though no one knew what she was really thinking.

Asia, upon learning that these two were from the Church, became visibly nervous, fidgeting in place.

But Kiba's reaction was the most extreme. When he saw the two girls, his expression darkened. He clenched his fists, his eyes filled with a mixture of rage and hatred.

Seeing this, Kiyome was startled by Kiba's sudden hostility, unable to guess what had triggered such a reaction.

The atmosphere in the room instantly became tense.

"Mind telling me exactly why you people from the Church barged into my territory without permission? What is your purpose?"

After taking a deep breath, Rias spoke, her tone heavy.

"My name is Xenovia Quarta, and this is my partner, Irina Shidou. We're here to inform you that we have a mission to accomplish, and we request that you do not interfere."

Faced with Rias's questioning, Xenovia responded forcefully.

"Request? Heh, you barge in uninvited, and now you have the nerve to warn me off?"

Rias was more amused than angry at their audacity.

"Alright, alright, let's not be so harsh. We have a very important mission this time! Once we're done, we'll leave immediately. We won't cause you any trouble. So please, don't hinder us."

Seeing the tense atmosphere, Irina interjected with a friendly smile, trying to mediate the situation.

Rias's demeanor softened slightly.

"Fine. Let's each take a step back. Still, I have the right to know exactly what your mission is; otherwise, I'm afraid I'll have to show you out."

Xenovia, after hearing Rias's proposal, glanced at Irina, thought for a moment, then decided to reveal their mission.

"We're here to find the Church's missing Holy swords!"

That revelation astonished everyone except Kyoya—who already knew. Rias and the others were visibly stunned.

"What? The Church's holy swords were stolen? What's going on?"

After all, holy swords were sacred artifacts, heavily guarded by the Church. The fact that they were stolen was unbelievable.

"Sigh, it's a long story." Xenovia said, and then proceeded to explain, "Not long ago, three Excalibur fragments were stolen from the Church by a high-ranking Fallen Angel, who is now hiding somewhere in Kuoh Town."

"Our mission is to eliminate the Fallen Angel and retrieve the stolen holy swords."

"Who could be powerful enough to snatch Holy Swords from the Church?"

Akeno asked curiously.

"It was the Fallen Angel Cadre Kokabiel!" Xenovia answered without hesitation.

"Kokabiel!! so it's him!" Rias and Akeno's expressions changed drastically upon hearing that name.

"Um, is this Kokabiel person very strong?"

Kiyome and Asia, who had never heard of Kokabiel, were confused.

I decided to explain. "Yes, he's no pushover. Kokabiel is a high-ranking cadre among the Fallen Angels, He has Ten black wings and is a survivor of the Great War among Devils, Angels, and Fallen Angels—someone who fought both the Maou and God himself and lived to tell the tale. He's essentially on Ultimate-class level."

"Even though Rias and her peerage have grown stronger, they would have little chance of defeating a veteran Ultimate-class Fallen Angel cadre like Kokabiel."

Kiyome was shocked.

"Is he really that strong? Rias-senpai and the others together still wouldn't be able to defeat him?"

Rias and Akeno smiled wryly and explained, "Kiyome-chan, we have indeed grown stronger. But against an Ultimate-class opponent, we could probably hold our own for a bit, but we definitely wouldn't win."

"I see..."

Suddenly, I turned to Xenovia and Irina, asking, "By the way, Xenovia—that huge object you're carrying around, that's a Holy Sword, right? If I'm not mistaken, you two are both Holy Sword Wielders, yes? I can sense multiple Holy Sword auras on you."

Irina and Xenovia looked taken aback.

"You, a human who hangs around Devils, can sense the Holy Swords auras? It seems you're not an ordinary human."

Without further ado, Xenovia pulled out the sword wrapped in white cloth from behind her back.

Instantly, a burst of holy light flared—so intense it left all the Devils grimacing at the natural repulsion they felt toward its radiance.

"The blade I carry is known as the Kingly Sword—Excalibur Destruction," Xenovia said, introducing her weapon.

At the same moment, Irina peeled off the white bandages wound around her wrist, revealing a second sword blazing with a brilliant holy glow.

The sight of these Holy Swords sent Kiba into a trembling fury. His eyes burned with hatred, and his clenched fists shook uncontrollably.

"Calm down, Kiba." I quickly reminded him, sensing his emotional turmoil.

"Huff, huff!!!" Hearing my words, Kiba took deep breaths and calmed down.

Then he thanked me, "Thank you, Kyoya. Otherwise, I might have caused a lot of trouble for Buchou."

Yes, if it weren't for me, Kiba would have lost control and attacked, not necessarily the two girls, but their holy swords.

Seeing Kiba calm down, Rias and the others breathed a sigh of relief. They were afraid he would lose control and cause a major incident.
