Old Satan Faction

From the destroyed gate appeared a young handsome-looking man in his early twenties with silver hair that was tied in a braided hairstyle. He wore a silver robe with detailed accessories.

"Euclid... So it's Old Satan Faction."

Zeoticus commented with disdain and fear in his eyes.

The man in front of him was the leader of Nilrem, the magician faction of the Khaos Brigade, which extensively worked under the Old Satan Faction, who sought to oppose the current Satans. Khaos Brigade was considered a terrorist organization by many mythologies.

"Oh... it's been a long time since we met Lord Gremory and Lady Gremory. I hope you are doing well."

Euclid greeted them with a fake smile.

Zeoticus was worried. Sirzechs was not here and he and Venelana aren't strong enough to fight this man. Although no matter how strong he was, it was no match for Karna.

Karna saw Zeoticus looking at him pleading and understood the situation.

"Lady Gremory, please take Rias and Akeno to safety. I'll deal with this man. Prepare yourself, Euclid."

Karna said and in a moment shot towards Euclid whose reaction couldn't keep up with his speed. Grabbing his neck, Karna threw him outside the castle and in the air.

It happened too fast for Euclid to process as he looked at Karna standing just outside the palace, looking at him with threatening eyes.

"You..."

Euclid screamed and balanced himself with his devil wings before shooting a largely concentrated beam of energy at Karna.

"Agneyastra!"

Karna declared and breathed a large amount of fire which stopped the energy beam.

With his divine armor, the attack wouldn't even leave a scratch at Karna but to save the palace from further destruction, he neutralized the attack with one of his astra.

Karna's attack was so strong that not only it failed Euclid's attack but the fire also engulfed him.

Euclid couldn't understand what was going on. From the information, he got there should be no one stronger than him, as he was supposed to be just below satan-level, but this unknown man might be detrimental to their plans.

Karna had got on his vimana and reached the same level as Euclid in the air.

"I suggest you back down."

Karna warned him and brought out his sword, Asi. The sword was still in a dormant state as he didn't consider Euclid to be a worthy enemy to face the full-powered Asi.

Forget a fully powered Asi, even using any of his astra could cause collateral damage, killing innocents in Gremory territory.

"Let your sword do the talking."

Euclid refused and started fighting Karna.

Citizens of Gremory territory watched as Karna and Euclid clashed with each other. Karna was just using a sword while Euclid was continuously using his magical powers to defeat Karna but with no luck.

While Karna fought, he kept an eye on Akeno with his clairvoyance in case she gets in danger. He hadn't moved away too far away from the palace. He wanted to finish this as soon as possible.

After just a few minutes, Karna got an opening.

"Arghhhhhhhh..."

With one swift merciless swing, Euclid's hand was cut from his body. His screams could be heard all over the Gremory territory filling his soldiers with fear.

But a sudden message through telepathy removed his attention from his pain. Even though he just lost an arm he had a smile on his face. And with a creepy victorious smile, he looked at Karna.

"You..... what's your name?"

Euclid with bloody eyes grabbed onto his wound as it was hurting too much.

"Karna!"

Karna replied gracefully.

"Remember me, you will pay for this."

Euclid declared and teleported away using a summoning circle. With him gone, his soldiers also started retreating one by one.

Karna sensed that his presence was nowhere near he quickly went to Akeno.

Akeno and Rias were shifted to Venelana's and Zeoticus' room and they were guarded by Venelana and her bodyguards. Meanwhile, Zeoticus had gone to fight other invaders.

"Thank you Lady Gremory for taking care of Akeno."

Seeing that Akeno is perfectly fine, Karna thanked Venelana.

"You are here... means..."

Venelana was confused. Did Karna beat Euclid that soon?

"Euclid with other attackers went away."

Karna explained. To add to that, a guard whispered in Venelana's ear that Karna defeated Euclid in just a few minutes, even cutting his arm off.

Venelana was grateful beyond belief as she was glad that her family and people were safe.

Much to Karna's surprise, Venelana wrapped her arms around him for a hug.

"Thank you very much, Lord Karna."

Venelana thanked Karna with teary eyes. Karna blushed slightly as he felt her voluptuous body pressing onto him, especially those large tits. [A/N - She's not in the harem but that doesn't mean Karna can't enjoy some marshmallows. Tell me if you don't like scenes like this.]

Even Akeno, Rias, and other guards were embarrassed seeing her body tightly pressed against Karna. Rias cheeks were red like her hair as she saw her mother's breasts almost spilling out of her dress.

"It's nothing, Lady Gremory."

Not knowing how to respond, Karna just patted her on the head.

After a minute of hugging, Venelana let go of him much to everyone's relief, nobody knew what will happen if Zeoticus saw them like that.

"We should help others in the city. There was a considerable amount of damage."

Karna said making everyone nod in agreement. But before they could go...

"There's no need. I have given sufficient orders to my subordinates. Meanwhile, we have a bigger problem."

Zeoticus walked in with a serious expression on his face.

"What happened, dear?"

Venelana asked her husband.

"Everyone leave."

Zeoticus ordered before answering. The guards and maids quickly left the room leaving only the Gremory couple, their daughter, Akeno and Karna in the room.

"The ring... it was stolen."

Zeoticus said in a low and depressing voice. While Akeno, Rias, and Karna couldn't understand him, Venelana's face had a horrified expression.

- Unknown Castle -

"Who did this?"

A woman asked. Her voice had a coldness that could freeze the one hearing it.

She was a beautiful young woman appearing to be in her early twenties with silver eyes and back-length silver hair that features a long braid on each side with small blue bows at the ends, while the rest is let down and ended in twin braids.

Her body was covered in a light-blue dress that showed her ample bosom, wide hips, and long legs. Her body wouldn't lose to the goddess of sex, Aphrodite, in sex appeal.

She was releasing an extremely chilling aura.

"Sister, he was named Karna. I never fought such a ferocious and calm opponent. The ring costs us my arm."

Euclid answered the woman while his wound was being treated by a doctor. He was teary-eyed and wanted to just cry in the arms of his sister but he won't dare to show any weakness especially not in front of her.

After hearing Karna's name, a frown grew on her face as she never heard of anyone who could be strong enough to defeat his brother in such a small amount of time.

Euclid gulped. He rarely saw any expression on her sister's extremely beautiful face. She had always remained cold.

"Ouch..."

Euclid screamed as the doctor suddenly touched him in the wrong place.

Hearing his brother acting like a child she got angry, but her anger was not at him but at the man who placed him in such a sorry state.

"I'll rip both of his arms."

The woman declared to his brother and left the room.

Hey guys, Indian Rake here.

REVIEWS? WHERE?

Anyway, tell me about the chapter? It was kinda hard to write as Euclid was no strong opponent at least compared to Karna.

Can you guess what's this ring business about?

Grayfia hadn't left Old Satan Faction because she never fell in love with certain someone.

How do you think Grayfia will take revenge for her brother from Karna?
