As for Irina, she figured her time would be best spent informing her partner on what to expect when they met with Rias. Issei was right that this was delicate and they would need to be on their game.

(Scene Skip)

Rias Gremory could barely hide her discomfort as she sat on the couch with the two exorcists that were sent by the church.

The fact Raynare was here also since she was part of the fallen meant that this could be ugly if she wasn't careful.

The fact that one of the exorcists was Issei's childhood friend, and she found out about what Rias had done meant that it would take a miracle to avoid conflict particularly since Kiba was attacked the night before by somebody wielding one of the Excalibur fragments and based on his report it was the same person who attacked Koneko back when Raynare was their enemy.

It was situations like this that Rias hated more than anything and with no Issei to play peacemaker she was in a bind, "Thank you for meeting with us Ms Gremory. My name is Irina Shidou and this is my partner Xenovia." Irina replied hiding the annoyance she felt.

"It's a pleasure to meet you two." Rias replied aware that the chestnut-haired girl in front of her would love nothing more than to stab her with a Holy sword for what she did.

"If I may interrupt, where is Lord Issei. I assumed he'd be here." Ravel asked curiously.

"Issei is… occupied." Irina said bashfully which caused Rias to raise an eyebrow.

"I see. Clearly Lord Issei thought having sex with some girl was more important than this meeting" Ravel replied causing Rias to twitch something fierce.

"Not that talking about his sex life isn't hilarious, but we're here to discuss the fallen angel problem we currently have." Raynare interrupted.

"That's pretty funny coming from a fallen." Irina admitted causing Raynare to twitch.

"Anyway" Rias interrupted hoping to change the subject away from the renegade Red Dragon. "What do you know about Kokabiel and any forces he might have?"

"Very little sadly. I met with Issei yesterday and haven't had a chance to investigate much else. I figured that speaking with you guys was more important." Irina answered.

"Maybe I can give you some insight." Raynare spoke up.

"Go ahead." Rias nodded since she was the resident fallen and daughter of Azazel.

"I say this with no offense Ms Gremory, but Kokabiel would be a fool to bring any forces of his own." Raynare said bluntly.

"Explain" Rias replied holding back her annoyance even though it was true.

"Kokabiel is one of the leaders of the Fallen Angels. He could wipe out this entire town and everyone in it with a single spear and it would be as easy as breathing. To be honest, him stealing the Excalibur makes zero sense." Raynare admitted.

"Explain" Xenovia spoke up this time a fair bit of annoyance in her voice.

She was calming herself because Irina told her that these girls were mostly friends of their host and getting him angry was a bad idea.

However, something about Raynare's words bothered her far more then she cared to admit.

"Like I said, Kokabiel doesn't need any help to wipe us out and if that was his goal… well we'd be dead already. The only reason he would have for stealing the Excalibur is if it wasn't his goal but somebody else's."

Irina's eyes widened at the statement, "Are you suggesting that Kokabiel is working for somebody else. Or rather, working to help somebody else." Irina replied.

"That's my guess but the idea is so insane that I couldn't see why." Raynare spoke up.

"The question you should be asking isn't why Raynare but who. Who could convince Kokabiel to actually work with him in a sort of alliance?" a smiling Valerie said as she walked into the room from the side causing everyone to freak out.

Nobody attacked since Valerie was able to sneak in undetected but they were all on guard.

"Who are you and how did you get here?" Rias exclaimed unsure of where the new person came from or who they were.

"Name's Valerie and I'm Raynare's stepsister. Don't worry about how I got here but just trust that I'm your ally" Valerie said nonchalantly dressed in her leather outfit.

"So why do you say I'm asking the wrong question Val" Raynare spat choosing to spite her with an old nickname

"Well Yuuma. That' s because you're focusing on Kokabiel and his role in all of this instead of his partner's." Valerie replied causing a dirty glare to come from Raynare.

"His partner" Xenovia questioned.

"That's right. There are two parts to this mess and each of them play a different role in the grand scheme of things. The first and most important part is the theft of the fragments."

"I'd say them coming to Kuoh is a big deal." Rias huffed.

"That's because you're not thinking big picture Red." Valerie scoffed causing Rias to twitch yet again.

Rias was furious and about to respond before Raynare stepped in, "Stop being a bitch and tell us what's going on Valerie." Raynare spoke up trying to avoid a fight.

"Yeah yeah" Valerie dismissed before focusing on the group. "As I understand it, the stolen fragments were in 3 different churches and ones that were nowhere near each other. For somebody to steal them all at once. You'd have to first locate the fragments and scout the area to make sure you can send adequate resources so this plan took time and lots of it."

"And your point is" Rias said impatiently.

"God you're pathetic. If you had somebody capable of getting three fragments why stop there?" Valerie said haughtily.

Irina gasped since Valerie was onto something, "You're right. Plus, the Excalibur fragments they took weren't really attack based. The seven Fragments are Ruler Transparency Mimic Rapidly Destruction Nightmare and Blessings. They took Nightmare Rapidly and Transparency, but to be honest only rapidly is really dangerous."

"Which begs the question. Why only take those 3 and more importantly why would you go to Kuoh afterwards a place that's watched over by two devil heiresses?" Valerie continued.
