Chapter 131: Surprise

"Yeah, Rias was so funny trying to imitate the important clan leaders, especially her father."

Akeno giggled, covering her mouth with her hand.

"Her chest puffed out, face made more stern... it looked so amusing and cute."

"Heh, Rias turns out to be cute from childhood."

I looked at Rias.

"Hm, why not tell him how long it took you to get used to me? And this obedient behavior. You should have seen her then, just two different people."

It didn't take even an hour for us to find common things with each other, and even Akeno dropped her "mask" that she used to hide from the past and her Fallen Angel side.

Konoko didn't speak much but liked everything judging by her blushing ears.

I also managed to talk with Kiba and even spar with him.

He found out that I'm proficient with a sword and wanted to challenge someone he couldn't defeat and simply compare skills.

I left them in a quite good mood just a few hours later.

I don't often manage to relax, but it was nice to spend time like this.

They also didn't forget to invite me to the Rating Game on the weekend which is in three days.

She asked me to stay and spend the night at their house, but I think Sirzechs would be annoyed, and I also had business in the Heavens.

I continued to study the artifacts of the Biblical and the Heavenly System to better deal with it.

Kiba and Gasper also possess the sacred gears.

Kiba has the "Sword Birth," and Gasper has the "Forbidden Balor View."

I managed to analyze the first one back at the Club just to make sure of the operation and examine it in more detail.

I also tried to retrieve Issei's Boosted Gear, but nothing worked out.

Apparently, the System of the Outer God protects his soul from such actions.

He hardly manage to isolate himself from the Heavenly System independently.

There are other Holy artifacts besides the Sacred Gear, but the Excalibur was broken into seven pieces, and each piece was used to make a different Holy Sword.

I talked with Michael about them because three parts of the legendary sword were stolen from the church not long ago which meant that Kokabiel had started to act.

Michael recently sent two faithful girls with another part of Excalibur to search for them.

I had to check on how the investigation was going, and it turned out that the Fallen had attacked Kuoh to kill one of Satan's sisters or both.

They also had Excalibur assembled from four parts.

However, they failed because Rias proved to be not only strong but also knocked the ground out from under Kokabiel's feet.

...

FLASHBACK

A barrier was erected in the academy that caused all ordinary people to fall asleep while a battle was happening outside.

Rias' peer was beating up the Fallen Angels, and Akeno did it with a certain sadistic.

Meanwhile, Rias was surrounded by a large amount of Destruction energy concentrated in her fists in front of Kokabiel.

As the clouds parted and a bright light fell into place next to Rias, I emerged... I just decided to use Heavenly teleportation.

Michael also appeared behind me who also decided to go.

"My Lord..."

Irina and Xenovia fell to their knees and looked more like cosplayers than church fighters.

"Did I interrupt?"

I asked, looking around.

There were still plenty of Fallen Angels in the sky, and they all fell powerless from the beam of light from the heavens.

"Tony."

Rias smiled at our sudden meeting.

"And here... apparently, it's canon, right? You used to call it that. But it seems to me that the timing should have been different..."

"My appearance and the disturbance caused in the supernatural world must have changed that or something else."

I shrugged.

"W-who are you?"

Kokabiel was surprised by the force of light surrounding me and the fact that the demons next to me weren't falling in pain.

"Don't you recognize Daddy?"

I decided to joke.

"I-Impossible! He's dead!"

He exclaimed while looking at Michael, who stood behind me.

"N-No! I don't believe it, it can't be..."

"Kokabiel, it pains me to see what you've become and your attempt to start a new war... Haven't the sufferings of our people been enough for you?"

Michael asked, and Rias only now noticed and instinctively took a couple of steps back because of his holy aura.

"He attacked us and wanted to..."

Rias didn't finish her sentence because of the explosion of demonic power from the academy's direction.

A part of the upper floor blew up, and Sona's peerage walked out of it.

Rias immediately manifested her wings and flew up to help her.

"That was surprisingly idiotic for someone who's lived for so long."

I spoke, and magical seals appeared beneath Kokabiel to chain him with light.

"Are you okay?"

I looked at Akeno.

"I fried a couple of Fallen, so definitely yes."

She replied.

"..."

Kiba was silent and looked at the sword in his hands. It was Excalibur or four combined parts of it.

"Because of them, the lives of innocent children were taken."

There was hatred evident in his voice, and he looked at Michael while throwing the sword at his feet.

"The Church always does what it wants..."

"Child, Heaven doesn't always know what's happening on Earth..."

Michael said sympathetically, understanding the situation.

"Rias helped me come to terms with my past... and let it go."

Kiba's gaze fell on Rias' back at the academy.

"They are just swords, and they are not to blame... it's the people who desired power."

"Michael can help with the investigation."

I said to him.

"I think the Church won't refuse to assist him."

I smirked, and Michael nodded to support the idea.

"It seems we didn't make it in time..."

A magical seal flashed nearby, and Azazel appeared in person.

"Oh, Michael is here. What happened that made you decide to come... here?"

Azazel's gaze fell on me, and he swallowed in shock for some reason.

"Azazel."

Michael greeted him with a nod and noticed how his former comrade looked at me.

"Since you're here, I might as well help a bit."

A wave of light burst from me to immobilize all the Fallen who moved behind Kokabiel.

Then I spread my hands to the side and I disintegrated all the debris and rubble nearby into atoms and restored the Kuoh Academy to its original state in a second.

"Rias, do you need help?"

I teleported instantly to her.

"No, Issei was here, and he attacked Sona, but they managed to fight him off."

She told me.

"But why would he do that?"

"He wanted to participate in the Rating Game through me, but I refused of course."

Sona herself replied, adjusting her glasses.

"He apparently couldn't find another way, and as soon as I refused, he attacked us with his controlled creatures."

"We need to improve Kuoh's defenses."

Rias said, barely able to contain her frustration.

...

Near Kuoh Academy

"Michael, who is this? And why are you behaving with him as you used to behave with Father?"

Azazel asked Michael his voice lacking its usual cheer.

"Anthony Luther, that's what he called himself."

Michael answered while pondering.

He didn't like to lie or conceal information especially when the subject of their conversation had never been opposed to sharing his story.

"He recently arrived in the Seventh Heaven, and now he's the new administrator..."

"That's it... When I tried to reach the Heavenly System, I was teleported to the Underworld... right in front of alligators."

Azazael recalled something and glanced at his bound subordinates.

"Good thing most of them are still alive... Can you tell me more about what happened?"

"I don't mind. After all, he wants us to form an alliance."

He recounted the recent days with a tender smile.

"Do you remember Father's words about what awaits the gods after death?"

Azazel asked thoughtfully to him.

"Reincarnation, if the soul isn't damaged. But why do you ask, Azazel?

Michael tilted his head.

"It's too many strange things. Do you think someone could appear in the Seventh Heaven so easily and immediately understand how to control the Heavenly System? And, importantly, the System accepted this someone... and that Light is very powerful..."

"You think Anthony is the reincarnation of our father? His energy is more reminiscent of Lucifer's..."

Michael pondered.

"He wouldn't take on the responsibility of the Heavenly System. You remember what he was like especially after the Fall... Moreover, that would explain why he appeared there after teleportation. He fought against the dragon gods... I'm not surprised about that. He never liked dragons since the time of Samael. However, these are just thoughts... You mentioned the alliance, right?"

Azazel smirked.

"I'm all for it, but the appearance of a new face in Heaven will attract the attention of many. Foolish creatures..."

He said this when glancing again at the bound Fallen especially at Kokabiel.

"We'll have to punish them severely especially Kokabiel. Why couldn't he just sit still?"

"Michael, I helped as much as possible, and the Devils will arrive soon. I may have normal relations with them, at least with Sirzechs, but it's better not to push it."

I appeared next to them, causing Azazel to flinch.

"Hey, uh... greetings, I'm Azazel, leader of the Fallen. I want to express my deepest gratitude for not killing these fools..."

"Not yet, but I will punish them."

I said, my eyes glowing with golden light as seals appeared over each Fallen who tried to incite war, sealing their powers.

"They are your subordinates and your responsibility. The main instigator among them will face a harsher punishment. He will suffer from realizing his mistakes and pain in Purgatory."

I spoke as my eyes flashed with light while creating a curse and imposing it on Kokabiel enveloping him in light and transporting him to Purgatory.

"The powers of the others are sealed, and do with them what you will, but don't forget what they planned. If such a thing happens again, they don't deserve a second chance."

I said this before teleporting to Heaven.

"...he even acts like Father."

He remarked, looking at Michael who unconsciously nodded with an almost joyful expression and followed the possible reincarnation of Father.

The Fallen's attack happened very suddenly, but fortunately, Rias managed to handle it in just a few minutes.

She's really grown strong since we first met, and it's no surprise that Kokabiel couldn't fight the power of Destruction.

Michael chose to look into the Excalibur case and the child experiments in more detail.

Meanwhile, I came across an interesting Sacred Gear I wouldn't mind studying more closely. 

The Bible's most sacred artifact is the True Longinus. It is considered the greatest "mistake" due to its abilities.

This spear gave its name to other Sacred Gear capable of killing gods and even destroying the world in the wrong hands.

It was with this spear that the centurion named Longinus pierced Christ while He was hanging on the cross, and the holy blood blessed the spear.

I knew who was holding this spear, and I immediately summoned it and will probably kill its owner.

The spear appeared in the middle of the Heavenly System like a flash of light.

 The holy aura was stronger than even Michael's, and that was just in its normal state.

I took the spear in my hands but felt as if it had its own will and began to scan me finding something it didn't like.

It emitted holy light that could even strike angels.

"You don't like the darkness in me? Well, too bad, I don't like stubborn weapons either..."

I began to forcefully suppress the will of the spear with difficulty, especially since the aura of the spear seemed to be trying to suppress mine with its holy aura in response...

The spear is made of metal sanctified by the Biblical itself, and several modes are built into it that I understood to be something like a Juggernaut Drive.

The True Longinus is one of the subspecies of balance disruptors that creates seven orbs with different abilities and a similar appearance, making it difficult for opponents to understand what ability to expect from them.

Cakkaratana has the ability to destroy an opponent's weapon.

Itthiratana is capable of completely nullifying the special abilities of women for a short time.

There are five other abilities, but they are either useless to me because I already have them or simply foolish...

A balance disruptor is what it is but the power of the spear is indeed great that's for sure.

The subspecies itself is something like a Juggernaut Drive which can distort reality with its effect and produce different effects depending on the situation.

It can grant immense power to the wielder if the opponent is too powerful.

In general, the spear is useful, and I think I'll modify it and combine it with my sword to use the developments of the Biblical and connect such a weapon with the soul like a Sacred Gear.

Moreover, it will only become more powerful because of the Eighth and Ninth metals... and such a weapon will come in handy for me as my world is full of demons and all sorts of dark creatures.
