40 Confrontation of the devil girls and the fallen angel group

"You and your group, Raynare. Why don't you just submit to being captured?"

Under the sunlight coming in from the windows of the abandoned church.

Rias's crimson hair fluttered and seemed to dance with a red magic circle under her feet. The Power of Destruction also exploded from her body, creating a dark red and black aura that flickered on one of her hands.

As a pure-blooded devil of the Gremory Clan, just like her older brother and mother. She also inherited a special ability called the Power of Destruction that originated from the Bael Clan. As the name suggests, the Power of Destruction is a kind of demonic energy, which gives its user a huge explosive power and can completely annihilate objects or matter when used.

Something like a person's body can also be simply annihilated with ease. The bodies of creatures like fallen angels were no exception, and people like Raynare and his group knew this special ability that the devils of the Bael Clan possessed.

Even so...

"Rias Gremory.... I don't know how you and your group knew we were here. Even so, you are now inside our base."

"Do you think there are only the four of us and your group here?"

Raynare grinned wickedly, she had already summoned her spear of light and beside her there were also other fallen angels ready to fight at any time.

There was a tall, dark blue-haired woman in a maroon trenchcoat named Kalawarna.

There was a girl dressed in a gothic loli suit with blonde hair styled into a twintail named Mittelt.

There was a middle-aged man with short black hair and dark blue eyes who was seen wearing a gray suit named Dohnaseek.

They are all fallen angels and also allies of Raynare. But not only them, currently many growls were also heard from outside the church which made Rias and Sona's group frown.

"Rias, there are many wild devils that have surrounded this place."

Sona who had a blue aura like water around her because she had activated her special ability as a pure-blooded demon of the Sitri Clan said to the crimson-haired girl.

"My peerage and I will take care of the outside. Rias, you..."

"I understand Sona, leave the fallen angels to my group."

Without another word, Sona and her peerage rushed out of the church and they saw hundreds of wild devils. Unlike her devils or ordinary devils who had common sense - wild devils had no common sense which meant they were like crazy people who always wanted to attack and eat people.

Sona immediately attacked by creating a giant water snake using her demonic powers to annex and tear apart the wild devils.

Tsubaki attacked using her Naginata and her Sacred Gear created several mirrors that could reflect the enemy's attacks.

Momo, and the other girls in Sona's peerage also began to use their respective powers to slaughter the wild devils.

Inside the church, Rias and her peerage had also started fighting Raynare's group and both sides started killing each other.

Seeing Raynare and her group refusing her tenderness to surrender and refusing to be captured obediently. The crimson girl did not hesitate to order all her peerage members to attack as well.

Akeno faced Kalawarna with her lightning magic. The two fought in the air and destroyed the roof of the church.

Koneko attacked a fallen angel named Mittelt who looked tiny like her and punched the other party with her tiny fists that could blow up a brick wall easily.

The blond knight, Yuuto seemed to be fighting quite fiercely with Dohnaseek using his sword - a sword.

Rias herself, she was like a boss fighting an enemy boss alone. And actually the fight was without any tension at all because...

Raynare was weaker than her and the fallen angel just kept dodging her attacks while throwing many spears of light that were deflected easily by her Power of Destruction.

Unlike Rias who still looked relaxed like a Mage with hundreds of thousands of MP who could continue to spam magic attacks without worry.

Raynare was different, the woman was now panting and had almost exhausted her holy power as a fallen angel. Her previous arrogant expression had also been replaced with panic as she dodged every Power of Destruction that was thrown carelessly at her.

"Damn it! Damn it! Rias Gremory, Sona Sitri! Damn you all!"

She started cursing, looking around; precisely checking the situation of her other allies.

Seeing Kalawarna, Mittelt, Dohnaseek and the wild demons she had gathered in an adverse situation. Even if the numbers on their side were more than Rias and Sona's group.

In the end the advantage of quantity was still inferior to quality which made Raynare grit her teeth.

She envied, she envied those who were stronger and more qualified than her!

Although she was a pure middle-class fallen angel and her group except for the cannon fodder-level wild demons were also actually not inferior to her.

Putting aside Rias Gremory and Sona Sitri who were actually the heirs of the devil clan in the underworld. Because of the difference in their status, she felt that it was natural for her to lose to the other party. But what about those girls' peerage? Even against a mere reincarnated devil her group still lost!

She herself desperately avoided every attack of Rias Gremory because if she was hit by an attack from that girl. She knew that she would definitely die instantly without leaving anything behind.

She knew the horror of the Power of Destruction.

So Raynare was actually scared now, but that fear was nothing compared to her envy of the other party's power!

In recent months, she had worked hard to increase her power so that she would be recognized by the leader of her fallen angel faction, Azazel-sama.

The other party told her to increase her strength, but since she didn't know how. She deliberately defected and created her own group to assist her in stealing the Sacred Gear that can increase her power quickly.

The last time failed because she underestimated the perverted boy who possessed the dragon-type Longinus Sacred Gear.

But despite the failure, there was still another target that in the near future there would actually be a nun who was expelled from the church and had a healing type Sacred Gear - Twilight Healing.

According to the information provided by the devil heir of the Astaroth family. The owner of Twilight Healing would come to their headquarters and they could directly harvest her Sacred Gear on the condition that they leave that nun's body for the Astaroth heir to take afterwards.

Raynare did not care about her informant's disgusting hobby, but now she hated it and felt that the other party might betray her group by leaking the location of their base to the two devil heirs in this city.

Otherwise, why would Rias Gremory and Sona Sitri know the location of the base and attack them in full force like this!

"Raynare, stop cursing us with your mouth. If you weren't looking for trouble in devil territory. We wouldn't have bothered to chase you and your group this far either." Rias said calmly and her hand was still raised to fire the Power of Destruction.

"Shut up! A girl like you who inherited the Power of Destruction from birth wouldn't understand what it's like to strive to be strong at all costs!"

Like a minefield that had been stepped on, Raynare felt deeply offended and several strands of her hair were hit by the PoD. She was terrified, but looked at the crimson-haired girl in front of her with jealousy and killing intent intensifying in her eyes.

Rias frowned at what Raynare said. She felt a little offended.

Exerting more Power of Destruction into her right arm. The red magic circle on her hand glowed even more and she unleashed an even bigger PoD attack.

The church where they fought had actually long since been destroyed and reduced to rubble due to the impact of the battle. Even so, Raynare was like a cockroach with excellent evasion skills even though her strength was weaker than her.

Rias was starting to get annoyed, she felt she had no other choice but to become more wasteful in using her MP.

Her other friends seemed to have finished with their respective opponents. Only she hadn't finished defeating her opponent yet!

She didn't want to lose face because of this, so she didn't hesitate to use more MP to...

[The others aren't bad, but Rias... Although she is very strong and has good potential. That girl is too wasteful and lacks control in controlling her Power of Destruction.]

[She must not have practiced her control for a long time and prefers to attack at will without worrying about the output.]

[I remember in the original work Rias was actually able to solve her political marriage problem if she tried harder to train her Power of Destruction. She doesn't need the help of the protagonist or even me if she is willing to work harder to become strong enough to solve her own problems.]

[It's just that for the sake of plot needs... Rias in the original work prefers to rely on others to solve her problems].

[I don't mind my woman relying on me, but it's a bit unfortunate if Rias doesn't maximize what she has like her Power of Destruction.]

Rias who was preparing to unleash a third of her devil power in the next attack gasped at Eiji's inner voice suddenly talking about her.

Hearing what Eiji was complaining about who was probably watching her fight somewhere. She felt a bit embarrassed and began to wonder if she could indeed solve the problem of her own political marriage with her power?

She knew her Power of Destruction was strong, but to fight her fiancée who was almost immortal because he had super regeneration abilities like Phoenix...

It wasn't that she wasn't confident, but she knew her Power of Destruction wasn't as strong as her older brother's who was able to eliminate immortals like Riser with ease.

But her? Rias knew her Power of Destruction was not strong enough to eliminate Riser. In addition to the super regeneration ability that made him almost immortal, Riser also possessed a very strong fire power.

Despite being arrogant, Rias was also somewhat aware of her Power of Destruction's lack of control and firepower. And she knew it was due to her lack of training over the years.

She was actually just lazy to train, she realized that.

Sometimes she had also thought of training hard to increase her power, but she always failed to do so because her attention was always distracted by human entertainment; especially Japanese culture and otaku things.

It was only after the time of her marriage to Riser approached that she panicked and started thinking about increasing her power by training hard. But again she found excuses like "If I train hard now. Will there still be time to become stronger than Riser and his peerage who have won many Rating Games?".

Instead of relying on myself and practicing hard, why don't I find a strong person to help me?

Then she started looking for people with strong Sacred Gear to join her peerage.

One day, Eiji's inner voice suddenly sounded and she saw the boy's power. So she was happy and decided to depend on him.

Thinking about these things, for a few seconds Rias became dazed and didn't realize Raynare was taking advantage of this opportunity to attack her!

The spear of light had already been thrown towards her heart. Even for devils, if their heart was destroyed. Unless that devil had super regeneration abilities like Riser or the people in his Phenex family.

That devil would definitely die.

"Rias!"

"Buchou!"

Sona and her peerage members shouted out her name.

"Ah..."

Rias who realized the spear of light that was about to pierce her heart began to panic, even if she made a magic barrier now it was too late.

Because of her panic, her mind even went blank and she wondered if she was going to die?

Eiji's figure also began to appear in her mind and she also wondered if that boy would save her?

But is there still time if Eiji comes to save her?

At this moment.

Sound effects rang in her ears.

*Swish!*

Rias immediately felt her body being shifted by a strong and warm arm wrapped around her waist. White hair and beautiful red eyes were also reflected in her eyes.

Who else if not Eiji?

"Stupid girl, why are you absent-minded in battle?"

"Sorry, but luckily there's you. So everything is fine, right?"

Rias smiled in his arms, he could feel the girl's heart beating like the telltale sign when a girl starts to fall in love...

Eiji sighed, how easy. The spear of light that was about to hit Rias had also been grasped by him with his bare hands and destroyed with a little strength in his grip.

¶{Host, host, did you intentionally distract Rias to create a hero moment to save the beauty?}

Miss System is very sharp.

But how did he admit it?

"Miss System, what are you talking about? I don't understand."

This answer.... I don't know how many times I've heard it.

Miss System snorted "Hmph!".

Raynare who saw her attack failed by the white-haired man who suddenly appeared was stunned.

"You! Who are you? How dare you interfere in my and Rias Gremory's fight!"

"I'm Rias Gremory's boyfriend."

That simple and quick answer made Rias who was still in his arms blush. Even Sona and the others who saw this scene could only remain silent.

Raynare's lips twitched, her jealousy of Rias Gremory was growing at the moment. Not only did she have the power she wanted, that damn girl also had a very handsome boyfriend!

Jealous, I'm so jealous! Why is this world so unfair to me!!!

"I'll kill you! Rias Gremory. You're so... Ah! I really want to kill you right now, even if I die!!"

"I'll also kill your boyfriend! Hahaha I'll kill you all!"

Raynare went crazy, she stared at the two people who had an air of flirting in front of her with killing intent.

Eiji frowned, it seemed that this woman didn't remember him at all because of the change in the color of her hair and eyes? Well but jealousy and anger sometimes do easily blind one's vision.

For Raynare and her group, he didn't care at all. Indifferently, even before Raynare was about to create her light spear again to attack.

[Zola e Dypt]

Locking Raynare and her group, a black-colored magic circle appeared beneath them, sealing their movements and magic power with chains of black flames that swirled and wrapped around their bodies.

"Ah hot!!! What, what is this chain!? No, let go! Let go of me! Please, I'll..."

Before Raynare and even the other fallen angels finished speaking, their bodies were burned by the black flames coming from the chains and reduced their bodies to ashes in less than three seconds.

"....." Everyone watching, including Rias stared at the black chains coming out of the black magic circle in horror.

Rias then looked at Eiji who was still holding her and sighed.

The boy she chose. No, her boyfriend was very handsome and strong.

The feeling of being protected like this was very good and made her addicted...

It's really hard not to rely on such a boyfriend.

So does she still have to work hard to solve her political marriage problem with Riser?

Is being a good wife at home and waiting for her husband to come home not enough?
