Excalibur (5)

<Irina pov>

"Hahaha, you can't do any shit right now little girl." Freed laughed maniacally as he succeeded in separating me and Xenovia.

"You can't run away this time! Now that you're all alone now~. So! Who's gonna save you?" Freed toyed Irina.

I used my mimic to form a whip towards Freed. Where he easily dodged as he charged at me.

"Ah." I let out a painful groan.

"Oh yeah, the Excalibur mimic. Don't wanna leave that with you can I?" He continued to slash at me before he choked my neck.

"Let me go! You traitor." I glared at him. As he tightens his chokehold.

"Hehuhu. Now let's see what I'm going to do~." Freed positioned his sword aiming at my heart, not before a voice sounded.

"Okay, Freed, that's good enough."

"Huh?" Freed looks at where the voice originated. "Well if it isn't boss~."

"We need to keep her alive for now. Even if she's an insect, we still have some use for her." Kokabiel let out an ominous laugh.

'So the fallen angel has finally arrived, I need to... Warn Xenovia...' As Freed knocked me out cold.

.....

<Mc Pov>

I arrived at where Irina was at. And saw her unconscious on the ground, I searched the area and found someone familiar hiding in the woods. I decide to let him hide, maybe he wants to say something. Even if he decides to dip out I can still catch him with ease.

'Well, she's alive at least.' As I inspected Irina. 'She's covered in wounds though... Hope you don't mind if I ripped you open.'

"Vile-, I couldn't stop them... They were strong. And Xenovia might need a little help... From you-." Irina said in a low voice. Before passing out.

"Alright alright." Was she conscious the entire time? Or did she just wake up?

I ripped her heart out before immediately healing her with 'Thou Shalt Not Die' as it requires the target to be in a critical state for it to work.

I saw Rias Sona and some of their peerage arrive.

"Oh, would you at that you've all finally arrived." I looked at them.

"Sorry man. For not telling you everything." Issei's apologizes for his negligence and because of it, his childhood friend was hurt.

"She looks fine? And healthy." Rias looks at the unconscious Irina.

"Before I healed her yeah, she was covered all over with sword wounds and was in a very bad shape. Thankfully I arrived before she bled out to death." I answered.

"You can heal too Vile?" Asia said in surprise.

"Yeah? Why don't someone send her somewhere to rest? She is just tired." I ask the girls since I can't bring her to my place.

"You can send her to my place. Tsubaki." Sona stated and ordered her queen.

"Then I'll leave her with you then." As Tsubaki picked her up from my arms. And teleported away.

'I wonder if I can see the formula and coordinates of that teleportation...' I looked at the disappearing magic circle.

"So what about Xenovia?" Rias spoke up.

"I heard from Irina that she went after the other person I guess." I don't know either. And waited for the movements of the person hiding, as he gets closer and closer to an open area.

"Ghhhnn-" The devils felt very uncomfortable all of a sudden by the presence of the holy sword the person was wielding.

"What is this in my chest!?" Saji complained as he felt that his heart was being gripped.

"No way!" Issei looked at the familiar person who came out from the woods.

"Well, well, would you look at what we have here!" Freed looks like the devil.

"Y'all took the bait, perfectly. And not to mention an additional guest." He declared, as not one devil princess, but two took the bait.

'Seems like he still has a grudge from me after I took his arm, he must've used alchemy or some shit to get a new arm. And he's hiding a lot of toys under his coat.' I thought to myself, as I saw Freed looking intensely at me.

Sona and Rias stepped forward to protect their peerage, as they felt that the sword Freed was holding was stronger than ordinary Excalibur.

"I welcome all of you~" Freed bowed before adding. "So many devils to play with my new weapon~" He laughed.

"And aren't you Asia Argento? Another traitor who gave her life to the damn devils. So how's life treating you devil schum." Freed mocked Asia.

I wondered where Xenovia was. And pondered that shouldn't this guy help his other ally?

Sona and Rias prepared their magic circles in Fred's direction.

"Woah, Woah chotto matte that for a moment and hold on!" Freed makes a stop gesture at them. "Don't char the messenger here, okay? There someone wants to have a business with you princesses, especially you." Freed smirked as he pointed at Rias.

"Who is it?" Rias asked.

"Well it's none other than my boss~!" He laughed as a barrier formed around us.

A person with 10 black crow wings appeared right above us.

"A fallen angel, and a high-ranking one at that," Akeno announced the person's presence.

'He must be Kokabiel huh, he looks like a vampire with crow wings.' I thought.

"It's finally a pleasure to meet you, heir from the House of Gremory. I am Kokabiel." He stated while looking down at us. "And you must be Vile Kuzu." He looked at me briefly and turned to Rias once again.

"The pleasure is mine, and please call me Rias." As she didn't like to be known as that. "So you're the one who's behind all this mess?"

"Your crimson hair brings some wonderful memories, just like the crimson-haired devil king. Hey, even if your facial is the same as his, it's sickening. " Kokabiel refers to Rias' brother Sirzechs.

I continue to let them yap at each other for now, while I'm thinking of some sort of way to make Kokabiel kill himself.

"I'll take that as a compliment," Rias replied. "So. Are you just solely here just to talk about my beauty?" Rias frowned.

"I'm thinking of doing a little damage, starting at the little school you have here, and then move on to wipe out the rest of the town," Kokabiel said.

"Why would you do that?" Sona said.

"Why you ask? Doing that would make Sirzechs and Serafall come and help out their sisters. So what do you think?" Kokabiel gave them an evil grin.

"Aren't you afraid that, it would cause another war between the three factions again?" Rias said in a concerned tone.

"Hahahah, that's even better than the church gave after I stole the Excaliburs, at first I thought that Michael would come after me. But alas, all they did was send some trash exorcists and two pitiful holy sword users."

"To tell you the truth, I was very disappointed with him." He stated showing an irritated expression.

"Wait! So your goal is to cause another war?" Sona spoke in a surprised tone.

'Well, I already knew that...' I looked at Kokabiel, who also noticed my gaze.

"You want to start a war, using us?" Rias didn't like to be used as she was a noble devil.

"Yes, that is exactly what I'm aiming for! After the previous war had ended, it left me very bored as there was nothing to do. I asked Azazel about it, but left me hanging out." Kokabiel shared his resentment to Azazel, as he believed that if another war were to happen he was confident that the fallen angels would win since the other factions were crippled after the previous war much more than them.

"Azazel?" Issei recalls that name for a moment, remembering one of his clients.

"Azazel, He's the General Governor of all the angels." Rias gave a brief introduction of Azazel to Issei and Saji as they were new and I guess me too? Seeing that she was looking at me as well.

"Us fallen angels, God, Devils, are meant to continuously keep fighting! Kuhhekeh. That means I'll be starting a war! Since no one is willing to start it!" Kokabiel declared.

"You're sick!" Issei and Saji shouted, just imagining the idea of war occurring at any point made them uncomfortable, not to mention they were at the eye of it all.

"Hahahah! Don't you think it's hilarious when his crazy side brightens up!? I'm also getting excited about the war that is happening too!" Freed laughed maniacally before continuing. "And look! I have a lot of toys to bring out to the party!" Freed showed off multiple Excaliburs he had collected.

"Those are Excaliburs!" Koneko said.

"All of it!?" Saji said, knowing why he was getting uncomfortable around Freed than last time.

"Seems like it," Akeno confirmed.

'I wonder if I can steal all of those and find some sort of use they seem like a big deal in this world. Though my Yamato is still the strongest.' I thought.

"Don't act so surprised now, because this is just the beginning!" Kokabiel attacked me, knowing I was the strongest in the group.

I reacted to the light spears as they all slowed down within my barrier, I looked at Kokabiel and Freed running away after attacking me.

Hit and run? *sigh*

"They are going towards the academy." Koneko pointed toward the direction.

"This is bad! They're about to destroy the school!" Issei said.

'Destroying school... Some students who complain about school might feel happy about it though.' I joked to myself.

"They're not going to stop at the school either, as they said that they were only starting at the academy," Sona said.

"That fucking fallen angel shit!" Issei started cursing at the fallen angels.

Which made Akeno uncomfortable. I of course knew that Akeno was part fallen angel and decided not to talk about it, since she might become even weirder than she is now.

-Chapter End-

(A/N: I think I made the holy sword arc way longer than I had intended it to be. probably ending in the next chapter maybe? hopefully next.)

(Another A/N: I might consider inserting an american senator as the next reincarnator in the future just for the fun of it after the few arcs.)
