Chapter 8

"No wonder they looked so familiar, but to think he was strong enough to take out Kokabiel that fast." commented Serafall.

"What do you mean?" asked Sona curiously.

"These two were made B-rank criminals for the murder of Debo-chan" she replied, which made both Rias and Sona go wide eyed, "I'm going to update them both to S Rank"

"It certainly is disturbing" said Sirzechs with a frown on his face, 'That aura he possessed when fighting Kokabiel is a serious problem.'

"Are you all going to ignore the fact that the Red Dragon Emperor got his behind handed to him by a Wyvern." Said a voice from the sky.

"Give me one reason why we shouldn't kill you right now" replied Sirzechs to the man with black hair, few golden bangs, a goatee and sprouting from his back, six pair of pitch-black feathered wings standing in the sky.

"Come on, don't be like that." Said Gregori's Governor General with a smirk on his face.

"It's not like I'm alone and I'm sure you wouldn't want a fight right now" he continued before throwing a quick glance at Rias and co. Behind him two other figures with twelve wings appeared and Sirzechs' instantly understood the message.

"What do you want?" asked Sirzechs' angry at how someone had just threatened him with his sister's life and how he was powerless to do anything.

"I want the idiot crow in the crater over there" replied Azazel while pointing in Kokabiel's general direction with his thumb.

"Take him and get out of my site" said Sirzechs as he turned his attention away from the fallen angels.

"Vali" said Azazel and a bright blue light flashed in Kokabiel's direction and back to Azazel.

"White Dragon Emperor, huh" said Sirzechs as he cast a glance at the man in white Scale armor and wide blue wings with a white frame, carrying an unconscious Kokabiel on his shoulder.

Meanwhile, in the Amazon Forest, Xenovia was just regaining consciousness, still unaware that she had just been kidnapped. She opened her eyes to find the self-proclaimed Red Wyvern Emperor arguing with the blond male who had fought Kokabiel.

"How dare you be so insolent!" growled the Wyvern angrily.

"No, it's you who is been insolent, obviously Pizza is better than a burger" responded the man equally as angry, "No food in this world could even touch the toes of the heaven that is Pizza."

"We'll finish this conversation later, she's awake" said the Wyvern as it turned its attention towards her, causing the blonde man to turn his head her way.

"Xenovia Quarta, natural holy sword user and the current wielder of the Holy sword Durandal. Did I miss something?" said Stephen playfully as he watched Xenovia's facial expression turn from shock to wary then to a mixture of both.

"What do you want from me?" she asked seriously.

"I want the holy sword you wield. But if you are willing to join us, I could let you use it" said Stephen plainly.

"I would never betray God!" she shouted loudly, a little angry at his request.

"You don't get it do you? God has been dead for centuries and the Angels have abandoned the church for decades. The Church has already betrayed God's beliefs and most are working with Fallens and Devils. I'm sure you better than most, know the amount of corruption running rampart in there" explained Stephen calmly while carefully studied her expression.

"How about this, I'm going to drop you off in Vatican City and we'll let you confront your superiors about the topic." Said Stephen, "Don't worry we'll be waiting outside for when you get expelled from the church you love so much."

A few days after the event in Kuoh, a young woman with silk blonde hair and a perfect face and figure, recently donned as the second most beautiful in Heaven was walking through the halls of the 'Zebel', the 6th heaven towards the office of heaven's current leader and her King, the Arch Angel Michael.

She knocked on the door to the great Arch Angel's office with determination reflection from her expression.

"Enter" said Michael's soothing voice.

"Rhea, what can I do for you today?" Michael asked his new Ace. Since Irina got caught by the devil's she didn't get the chance to be Michaels brave saint. Not that it would have mattered because after the battle in Gregori's territory a week ago, this Angel, Rhea went into overdrive mode and started improving leaps and bounds causing Michael to notice her.

"I want to be given permission to capture the stray priest, Stephen Miller and to bring him for punishment for his sins against the church." She said with some traces of hatred lingering in her heart. She would never forget how he had constantly defied her by not dying by her spear. How could a sinner like him not want to die under her most holy power. She had to make sure she purified his soul by forcing a light spear filled with her holy power through his evil filled heart.

"Well, that would be troublesome. I'm sorry but I can't allow you" said Michael's a little disappointed that he couldn't help a fellow Angel.

"What do you mean?, my lord" she asked a little shocked that at her Lord's refusal.

"A few days ago, this Stephen Miller person fought and managed to completely overwhelm a cadre class Fallen Angel, Kokabiel and his threat level has been increased to S rank. If I send you right now, you will only be going towards your death." Responded Michael.

"But how!! That's impossible. He was only high-class last week" she exclaimed.

"I'm sorry but I can not send you to your death." said Michael.

"I understand my lord" she said as she turned to leave but was stopped by Michael.

"Here, this came in Yesterday, commissioned by Grigori" he said handing her a poster. Here hatred increased a little more when she looked at the posters' contents:

{Name: Stephen Miller}

{Allegiance: Unknown- formerly a priest}

{Threat level: S to SS rank- Known for thoroughly defeating Gregori's Cadre class, Kokabiel}

Followed by a picture of the Priest.

'I shall get you one day, just you wait' thought Heaven's Second prettiest woman as she walked through the hallways back to first heaven to her house.
