Volume 5 Chapter 216 - Fight Back

"But it was hardly in the best interest of the three ravaged powers to inform Humans of this. After all, Angels and Devils alike rely on Humans for the endless faith and propensity for Devilish deals. Only the top brass of each faction was aware in the first place. Valper realized it too a moment before I killed him." Kokabiel fixed his clothes as he watches their 'funny' reactions.

"…There's no God…?" Yuuto blankly muttered, "Then what was it we believe in as we wasted our lives in that facility…?"

Xenovia felt weak on her knees, "…Y-you lie…"

With a chuckle, Kokabiel continued explaining, "And it's not as if another war will break out unless someone schemes to cause one. Each of the powers suffered heavy loses last time, after all." Then gritting his teeth, "That bastard Azazel proclaimed 'There will be no second war' and that was the end of it. I couldn't bear it! If only we Fallen Angels could take over, we wouldn't have to rely on Humans anymore!"

Asia couldn't believe what she's hearing so she asked again to confirm, "God is… dead? Then are we not really blessed by his love…?"

"That's right. You supposed pawns of God. There is no love! How could there be!? God is gone and so his grace!

"Well, the system God put in place to provide the power of blessings, exorcists, and the likes continue to function, but compared to when he still lived, the current era has seen a marked decrease in the strength of that divine protection and all those who utilized it."

Kokabiel then pointed to Yuuto, "That you were able to produce a Holy-Devil sword at all is proof. With God and Devil King dead, the balance between 'Good' and 'Evil' has crumbled completely."

Asia slumped down and forgot her duty to heal her comrades, "…N-no…"

Issei grabbed and supported her, "Asia! Keep it together!"

'I feel her pain… She's devoted the greater part of her life so far to God… I myself wasn't so different at one point.' Kiba thought as he saw Asia getting lost in her own thoughts.

Ignoring the reactions, Kokabiel madly proclaimed, "War is coming! I'll take your heads and show Lucifer and Michael that Fallen Angels reign supreme!"

They can't hope for the reinforcements anymore because they can tell that Kokabiel won't waste any more time. Almost everyone already lost their hope… 'Almost.'

With everyone staying silent, Issei slowly separated from Asia and walked in front, "You gotta be kidding me! You're over there running your mouth about starting some war but all you're really doing is interfering in my grand plan!"

Kokabiel felt amused and asked, "Hooh… And what is it?"

Without hesitation, Issei pumped his fist and declared to the world, "I'm gonna be the Harem King!"

Everyone except Kokabiel was dumbfounded. They didn't know what to think about Issei's proclamation.

"Hehehe… Harem? That's your desire, Red Dragon Emperor? Then just come with me and you'll have what you want! You can have all the women you desire!"

Issei would be lying if that offer didn't tempt him even a little bit, but he knew that there are much more important things than that and it's not his type to receive women from somebody else, "F*ck you! I don't need your women! I'll get them myself!"

"Heh… Then die!" Kokabiel conjured another spear of light and was about to throw it to Issei who is preparing to sacrifice his body to Ddraig to power up. Before Kokabiel could do that, however, a dull gray knife flew straight to his face and he used his bare hand to fend it off, "Little girl… you still haven't given up?"

After she received first aid from Asia, Aika is already feeling a lot better despite her remaining wounds, "Giving up? Even that idiot still hasn't given up. But in all honesty, we can only hope for a miracle to defeat you, and that idiot might be able to do it. But something as shady as a miracle, I don't like it, and I still haven't done everything. Why would I give up?"

"Hahaha! You still have something you can do? Fine. Show it to me!"

"Azazel… Should I step in?" Vali already put on his Balance Breaker in a form of white armor with blue gems accompanied by blue large mechanical wings on his back.

"…Not yet… My intuition is telling me that something amazing is about to happen. But get ready to retrieve Kokabiel and Freed if something happens without waiting for my command." Azazel replied.

"…Understood."

Aika took a deep breath and looked around her. Asia is still lost in her thoughts and Xenovia already lost her will to fight. Yuuto is in a better state, but he's already disgruntled. Rias, on the other hand, still haven't given up too, but she's too too tired to continue. As for Issei, she doesn't know what he's planning, but she's sure won't depend on something unknown.

The only people who could fight properly are her, Sona, Akeno and… Koneko, who already started gathering Ki inside her body despite receiving glares from her, 'Haah… Too tight… And I still don't know his full capabilities… I can escape, but I also have to bring Kaichou and Koneko with me, but I doubt they'll agree… I can only hope for a quick fight.'

"Hyoudou-kun… Have you charged up?"

"Huh?… Ah, yeah."

"Then transfer that to Kaichou and Akeno."

Issei first looked at Rias and she nodded, "Sure." He doesn't know what she's planning, but he thinks that it's better than his unsure stupid move.

Sona and Akeno silently agreed and waited for Aika's further instruction. The fact that Aika is just a normal human not long ago already escaped their mind. Though they don't have any plan either way, so they can only agree.

"Kaichou, full power, please… And Himejima-senpai… That's the same for you." Sona nodded immediately while Akeno hesitated and gritted her teeth before nodding. She remembered Kisuke's words about her priorities and she doesn't plan to hold back any more despite her trauma, 'Right… my friends are more important for me than me remembering and using that man's power…' Clenching her fist, determination filled her eyes.

Aika sighed in relief after seeing this. She heard from Yoruichi that she's holding some of her power due to some unknown reason, and that power can create a difference in this situation.

The reason why she chooses to transfer Issei's power to Akeno and Sona instead of to her or Koneko due to the nature of their power. First, Koneko is already having a hard time controlling her Ki and increasing it would only increase the burden in her body and she might just die before she can even move. In her case, her power is not magic-based. She doesn't know how it would affect her and choose not to take the risk. And besides, she's also going to overload her body with what she's planning and any further increase in strength would only be detrimental.

"Kaichou! Himejima-senpai! Put it all in one shot!" Aika grabbed the 'candy' in her pocket and popped it into her mouth, swallowing it, "Koneko-chan! If you're doing something, you're up next!"

Sona put almost all of her Demonic Power to the magic circle in her palms and a few seconds later, a gigantic serpent with large fangs appeared behind her. Akeno, on the other hand, took a deep breath and her pair of odd Devil and Fallen Angel wings appeared on her back, shocking all those who don't know her story.

Pointing their hands on him, they both commanded their magic to crash into him. Midway, the water serpent and the large lightning fused with most of the lightning fusing to the serpent's fangs, "Good, good! But still not enough!" Kokabiel shouted in delight as he put up his hands to meet it head-on.
