CH.196: Church Exorcists.

( Yuuki's POV )

Yuuki: My name is Kurokawa B. Yuuki, I am here to serve as your support.

???: support? Who are you exactly?

Yuuki: I would love to tell you more but this is not the place to talk about that.

We were in the middle of the street and this was no place to talk about angels and demons unless you wanted to attract strange looks, So before we continued we moved to the abandoned church, best place in the city for a secret meeting.

When they got there the two representatives of the church lowered their hoods revealing that they were two pretty girls, one was tall and with a serious expression, She had short blue hair with a lock of green hair and yellow eyes, and the other had a more innocent appearance, she had light brown hair tied in pigtails and purple eyes.

???: I am Xenovia Quarta and this is my partner Shido Irina.

Irina: Irina here~

The serious girl introduced herself and her partner, who made a cute pose when introducing herself, The two of us were silent for a moment and the girl Xenovia pretended that that didn't happen and continued the conversation.

Xenovia: yeah...Could you talk more about being our support.

Yuuki: Well I'm sure you know that this city is being watched by devils, we are allies so I will be acting as a representative of our two factions.

Xenovia: are you an ally of the devils? What faction do you belong to?

Yuuki: we are Sekireis, in short, we are aliens.

Xenovia: aliens... Are you making fun of us?

Yuuki: What's wrong, you know that angels and demons are real, but aliens are too much, well technically I am a descendant of aliens but that is not important.

Irina: you have a spaceship?

Yuuki: yeah two but this is not about me, could you give me more details about your mission?

Xenovia: Our mission is to recover the fragments of the sword, Excalibur that were stolen from the church, if that is not possible we have to destroy them, we cannot let the enemy have them.

Yuuki: I suppose you have an idea of who has those fragments.

Xenovia: yeah, these are in the hands of one of the leaders of Grigori, the fallen angel faction, Kokabiel.

One of the leaders of the fallen angels? That doesn't sound good, these girls aren't much stronger than the young devils when I first met them, their chances of success are not very good and that is putting it mildly, the church on a mission against the fallen angels in territory being watched by the devils, That sounds like a recipe for disaster.

Yuuki: I see, and what did the other Grigori leaders say about this?

Xenovia: They claim that they have nothing to do with it and that Kokabiel is working on his own.

Yeah, I know that there are leaders on all three sides who are trying to reach an agreement for peace so I am inclined to believe them, This could end up as proof that peace is possible or possibly start another war, I couldn't let these girls fail their mission.

Yuuki: umm I think I'm getting the picture here.

Irina: Well now that that's out of the way, we should start our search.

Yuuki: Before that, can you tell me where you will be staying during your mission, will you be staying in a hotel?

Xenovia: well... About that.

Yuuki: Please don't tell me that you were planning to stay in this church.

Irina: hey there is nothing wrong with this place, the Lord will provide us with what we need.

Yuuki: Sure, if you say so, come with me, I know a place where you can stay.

///////////////////

I took the girls to our mansion, at first they were quiet but soon the blue-haired girl Xenovia broke that silence.

Xenovia: hey can I ask you something?

Yuuki: sure shoot.

Xenovia: how did you end up allying with the devils?

Yuuki: An enemy of mine got mixed up with some high-level devils, so I asked for the help of others to catch him and any others who could make their way here.

Irina: more aliens?

Yuuki yeah I guess you can call them that.

When we arrived at the mansion I told the girls that this was my place and that they were welcome to stay, From what Irina said they didn't have much budget for lodging and food so they appreciated it, My Sekireis and the young devils at the moment are trained in Babylon so the only ones who were with me were my personal maids.

Irina: Wow, you live alone in this place?

Yuuki: no but we have more than enough free rooms for you.

Xenovia: thank you, if you excuse us we will begin our mission.

Yuuki: Wait, I think you should leave the morning investigation to me.

Xenovia: and why is that?

Yuuki: I think you already know this but I cannot see your task as anything other than a suicide mission.

Xenovia: We know that but that does not change what we must do.

Yuuki: but that changes what I have to do, I can't let you die, at the very least I would like to train you during the morning.

Xenovia: you train us? You're not much stronger than us.

When Xenovia said that my maid Ruby's eyes widened and she seemed ready to pounce on the girls, It seemed that she took what they said to great offense but I didn't care, that they were not able to feel the difference between us shows that they need training.

Yuuki: Well there is an easy way to resolve this, a friendly spar.

Xenovia: That seems good to me, if you can beat us we will do what you say.

After deciding that, we went to the back of the mansion, we prepared to fight and I activated my kagune in its second form, six powerful bone tails, when they pulled down their hoods I was a little surprised because they were wearing skintight black suits that didn't leave much to the imagination.
