The Strongest Seraph

[Akeno's POV]

This is horrible... an unprecedented madness. I haven't been able to contact Rias but Kuoh town has become -in the middle of the dusk- into the warfare of gods and powerful entities that we are unable to even stand in front of... Rias ordered me to help and that is what I and Tsubaki have been doing; I have yet to recover from the shock of being allowed back into the Himejima Clan just like Tsubaki.

A gigantic flame dome had covered the skies and turned the night back into a day as if the sun had descended right in front of us, the heat it produced revered through like a scorching summer, it was bearable but uncomfortable.

Anywhere you look there is nothing but shock and destruction, people screaming for help, with only the two of us it is impossible... Amaterasu-sama said the Onmyoji and Yokai are coming and I only hope they come faster.

*Cough!*

"F-Fukukaishou!"

One of the members of the student council, Sona's peerage, had been under the rubble... we have already found several bodies... innocent students... I want to vomit, but even doing that right now is leisure.

We tried to save whoever we could... two of Sona's peerage members were missing and we only hoped they were away from school when this happened... Thankfully Kiba and Koneko should have been back home as they were sent away by Rias beforehand.

The first group to land in front of us was an unknown bunch of people, they regarded the fight that was taking place in the distance, a little high above the sky but not so high as to not disturb the town... five individuals were fighting a single one... that woman had a red cloak, twelve black wings and a gigantic scythe, her mere presence horrified me like she was created to exterminate devils.

I'm a half-fallen angel, an identity I take huge shame on, bad memories... but even I can tell that woman is not just a 'Cadre'.

Focusing my gaze on the newcomers they immediately helped us start taking out people from the rubble before even bothering with introductions.

They were a boy with black hair, a gorgeous blonde lady with a... witch hat? and also a high school girl? what a diverse group.

*BOOOM!!*

Someone landed beside us, I and Tsubaki immediately got on guard as I prepared to unleash the devastation of lightning on whoever this was, however, the black-haired boy stopped me.

"Azazel, what is going on?!"

Who landed in front of us was a man covered in semi-shattered golden armour, Azazel. so he's the man from earlier, the leader of Grigori where 'that man' belongs.

"Tobio... kelp Akeno Himejima and Tsubaki Shinra save those that you can, as for those that are beyond salvation... don't bother. My balance breaker is about to end and I'll have to fight Azrael with my flesh, I'd rather not do that..."

In the distance we saw how that red-cloaked woman slashed one of the devils and split him in half in a bloody fashion.... that man... he didn't look weak at all.

"That is the Archangel Azrael... for people like you, a mere touch from her scythe is enough to plunder your souls away, don't even think of getting close! Just help whoever you can, I already contacted Grigori... Shemhazai and Baraqiel should be here soon. You two, thanks for your help".

Tsubaki and I could do nothing but nod in this situation, we're working together with fallen angels now, such is the degree of catastrophe that befell Kuoh, he just mentioned that Baraqiel would come... I twitched my lips in discomfort but decided to ignore it. Right now is not the time for that.

"It is good to meet you, my name is Tobio Ikuse, and these are my companions Natsume Minagawa and Lavinia Reni." The boy introduced himself and his group, and the blonde lady seemed quite uncaring.

"Akeno Himejima, this is my friend Tsubaki Shinra... there is no time for presentations, we will be counting on you" having said that I pulled Tsubaki back to our own work while they focused on theirs, we're not here to waste time... I was just hoping Rias was well until I found someone that I wasn't expecting to see.

Hyodo Issei... the boy from the perverted trio we were trying to get into our peerage. He had a piece of steel sticking into his chest, bleeding.

"Hyodo-kun!" I rushed towards him, hoping he'd still be alive at least.

He spat a mouthful of blood but when he saw me and Tsubaki trying to treat him, he said some words that made me wonder if I should help him or let him die.

"O-Oppai..."

"..."

[Azrael's POV]

Shameless deities refuse to follow the due course of death.

I sliced through the descendant of Asmodeous, slicing him and sending him back into existence, finally, my purpose is being accomplished. How could have father created me, only to discard death right after?

I'm the angel of death, my original purpose is to extinguish the soul of the living, yet how could he deny me of my purpose, pardoning their sins and denying their true death, sins shouldn't be pardoned. Before dying, my father exiled me to roam this seemingly endless world without purpose, denying me the right to execute the helpless souls of humans that deserve nothing but death.

Eventually, I found myself in the underworld, a guest of the Olympian Hades, he did his job so well, making sure the souls of those in his domain sank into the deepest despair they deserved, how come he is able to accomplish his desire, while I'm cursed to remain still amidst the chaos caused by prolonged life?

When humans die there is no true death for them, no sins washed... he loved his creation so much that he allowed the sin to transcend into the generations, turning humans into the scum they are today. Father made a mistake. True Death is necessary... and this group, The Fallen Gods, are going to bring it on my stead.

In the meantime, I shall bring death to these foolish wannabe immortals. You disallowed me from bringing death to the humans, but... you never said anything about gods, angels, devils or fallen angels, father...

No more sitting still. Now that you are not here, I shall fix your mistake.

*CLAANG!!*

My scythe clashed against my younger sister's sword; young and naive, swayed by my father's words to protect a creation that brings nothing but pain and despair to even angels.

Even then, when I think about bringing Death to her, I can't.

I blasted her away and chased after the descendants but a pesky kitsune and cadre were on my tail.

I blocked Azazel's lighting spears and slapped away the Kitsune's fire before chasing after the Leviathan and Beelzebub... I shall bring Death to them first!
