....

As time passed, the dark shadow in the distance slowly took form. Soon, everyone could clearly see the figure hovering in the sky.

It was a male Fallen Angel with ten black wings, a sharp hawk-like face, and piercing crimson eyes that radiated malice. His very presence exuded a suffocating aura, making the air feel heavy.

With a casual motion, the Fallen Angel conjured a throne of light and sat upon it, looking down at us with a sinister smirk.

"Interesting. So you were expecting me? You deliberately exposed your location just to lure me in?"

His voice was calm, but it carried an undeniable arrogance.

"And you—Holy Sword Wielders—muddling with Devils. Did you truly think that would be enough to protect you? How naive."

His gaze swept over Irina and Xenovia, eyes filled with mockery.

"So that's Kokabiel…?"

Irina's voice was barely above a whisper. She and Xenovia both stared up at the Fallen Angel Cadre, their bodies tense. The moment they felt the overwhelming pressure from his aura, their hearts sank.

The power gap between them and their target was too vast—far beyond anything they had ever encountered before.

Just then, a notification chimed in my mind.

[Ding! Discovered target character: Kokabiel; Task Grade: Black; Task Condition: Defeat him.]

I raised an eyebrow.

Kokabiel was only ranked as a Black Grade? That meant his power level was at the Ultimate-class, maybe at best quasi-Maou-Class.

'Tch. What a disappointment.'

Here I thought he was some big-shot—one of the few remaining warriors from the Ancient War who had battled both Maou and Gods. And yet, he wasn't even a true Maou-class being?

'A fraud.'

....

Rias took a step forward, her crimson hair flowing behind her as she looked up at Kokabiel with icy hostility.

"What an unexpected guest. A Fallen Angel Cadre visiting unannounced? How unusual." Her tone was calm, but the tension in the air was thick.

Kokabiel turned his eyes to her, sneering. "Red hair… Ugh, how revolting. You're just like your wretched brother—Sirzechs Lucifer—soaked in that nauseating Gremory bloodline. Makes me sick to my stomach."

"Kokabiel, what exactly brings you here to my domain?" Rias narrowed her eyes.

Kokabiel chuckled darkly, his smirk widening. "Hmph. You'll all be dead soon anyway, so I might as well tell you. I plan to turn this city into a battlefield—using Kuoh Academy as the epicenter of a glorious war."

The moment those words left his lips, the entire group tensed.

"What?! Are you insane?! If you truly do that, the Church will have no choice but to declare another war between Angels, Fallen Angels, and Devils!!" Rias's voice sharpened.

"I had hoped that by stealing the Excalibur fragments, Michael himself might come calling. But instead? They sent a few pathetic exorcists who call themselves Holy Sword Wielders. How utterly dull." Kokabiel laughed.

Hearing Kokabiel's response, even those who were prepared for the worst couldn't help but curse him for being a madman.

Xenovia and Irina, in particular, looked at Kyoya with complicated expressions.

It turned out that Kyoya was right. They really were just pawns to be discarded by the Church...

Kokabiel sneered, noticing their shaken expressions.

....

A voice suddenly echoed from the forest. "Hmph, that's right. The Church just sent you two Holy Sword wielders, did they not? It seems you still don't understand that you are nothing more than abandoned pawns? How disgusting the Church is, as always!"

An old man with glasses and a priest's outfit walked towards the group.

Xenovia's eyes widened in rage.

"Valper Galilei, you traitor! How dare you show your face here!"

"You were the one who helped Kokabiel steal the Excalibur fragments, weren't you?"

When Xenovia and Irina saw the newcomer, they immediately questioned him with anger.

"!!!" Hearing the priest's name, Kiba could no longer suppress his rage. His eyes were bloodshot as he glared at him.

Valper turned, adjusting his glasses as he regarded Kiba with confusion.

"Hmm? Who are you? I don't think I've ever seen you before."

Valper was confused by Kiba's sudden killing intent, as he didn't recognize him at first.

"Valper, I've been looking for you all this time. Do you remember the Holy Sword Project all those years ago? I'm the only survivor from that experiment. I will never forgive you!"

Kiba's eyes were filled with fury, his face pale, his teeth gnashing.

"Oh... I remember now. You're that failure who ran away. Just like those other dead wastes of space, a piece of trash who couldn't amount to anything!"

Hearing Valper insult his former companions again, Kiba's entire body radiated intense hostility and anger. He was about to charge at him to get his revenge.

"Kiba, wait. I told you, I'll let you deal with him personally. So calm down for now."

Kiba gritted his teeth, breathing heavily—then finally, with great effort, he nodded.

....

Meanwhile, Kokabiel continued his monologue...

"After the war between the Three Factions, I was so bored! Both Azazel and Shemhazai were so passive about another war."

"Not only that, but Azazel also went around collecting those boring Sacred Gears, completely immersing himself in that research. I have no interest in that stuff!"

Then—he spread his wings wide.

"So, I'll start the war myself! And I'll begin with you—Rias Gremory and Sona Sitri! The sisters of Lucifer and Leviathan! If I kill you two here, the Three Factions will have no choice but to fight!"

"Now, time for your 'baptism'."

With that, Kokabiel's face turned sinister. He gathered his magic power, instantly creating countless spears of light.

BOOOOMMMMMM

The sky exploded with golden spears of light, descending upon us like a rainstorm.

"Look out!" Seeing this, Rias, Sona, and the others quickly erected magic barriers, blocking Kokabiel's attacks.

Kokabiel, seeing his attack thwarted, praised them. "Not bad, for the sisters of Maou. It seems I can't finish you off so easily. In that case, let's have some fun!"

A massive magic circle appeared in the sky—

And from within, monstrous, three-headed Cerberus beasts emerged, snarling and baring their fangs as they surrounded us.
