The night deepens.
Unlike the brightly lit town, the mountainous area outside Kuoh Town is filled with eerie darkness and deathly silence.
There were three figures, one in front and two behind, walking on the rugged and steep forest path, heading towards the deepest part of the forest.
"Oh? Are those rebels you were talking about here?"
Ryan put his hands in the pockets of his shirt and confird with the two girls in a casual tone.
"Yes, Devil king. Our recent investigation into the movents of those rogue exorcists revealed that they are all hiding here."
Irina replied softly.
"Just keep calling Ryan. Lord Devil King is completely redundant."
"Can?..."
Irina was a little hesitant.
"Um?"
"I understand, Ryan-sama."
Ryan nodded in satisfaction, and then, as if he had thought of sothing, he asked, "By the way, what did those rebels do with the stolen King's Sword?"
"As for this... it seems they're assisting the 'Khaos Brigade' in capturing special beings. As for what they're capturing them for, we're not entirely sure."
...In other words, they're committing kidnappings everywhere?
Ryan stroked his smooth chin and thought seriously.
"Ryan-sama, it's right there."
Xenovia pointed forward and gave a soft reminder.
Upon hearing this, Ryan looked up in the direction Xenovia pointed.
Under the dim moonlight, several pitch-black buildings stood in the open space ahead.
The cracked walls were covered with ivy, and a large amount of weeds were growing wildly everywhere. It looked like it had been dilapidated for a long ti and it didn't look like anyone had gathered there.
"A temporary base?"
Ryan narrowed his ruby eyes and made this judgnt.
"It seems so..."
Xenovia nodded and asked the black-haired young man, "Ryan-sama, what should we do next?"
"Isn't this sothing you should decide for yourselves?"
Ryan laughed.
Then, under the gaze of the girls, the black-haired young man walked out directly, gently tossing up and down the stones he had just picked up.
"But if it were , then—"
Ryan grinned, took a step forward, and threw the small stone in his hand forward.
"Of course I greet them openly!"
——Swish!
The stone turned into a red light, like a falling teor, and hit the dilapidated black building directly.
boom!
The huge explosion shook the entire forest.
What shocked the girls even more was that the building that was hit by the small stone was instantly smashed into flaming ruins.
Soon, hurried footsteps were heard from other surrounding buildings.
"W-What happened!?"
"Enemy attack?!"
"How is it possible! This place is hidden so deeply!"
They were a group of people, just like Irina and Xenovia, all wrapped in white robes.
However, those were not upright exorcists like them, but outcasts who had rebelled against the church.
"Irina!"
"knew!"
The two mbers of the church exchanged a glance, and imdiately took off their white robes, revealing tights the sa color as the night, and rushed towards the group of stray exorcists.
Ryan chuckled and looked at their backs.
...The good show has begun!
Seeing that more and more rogue exorcists were coming out of the facility, there was no need to bother Ryan to take action. Xenovia untied the white cloth wrapped around the Sword of Kings and took out her own weapon, the "Holy Sword of Destruction".
Irina beside her also imdiately grasped the "Mimic Holy Sword" tightly, and the two of them coordinated with each other, rushing into the enemy group at a speed far beyond that of an ordinary person.
"It's indeed an enemy attack!"
"And, is that the Sword of Kings?! Soone sent by the Church!"
"Everyone, co together!"
The traitor exorcists also reacted quickly, took out their weapons and imdiately engaged in battle.
"Hah!!"
However, Xenovia's "Holy Sword of Destruction" was too powerful. With just a single swing, the golden sword light shattered the rogue Exorcists and the ground along with them.
"Xenovia, leave at least a few of them alive and ask them about the whereabouts of the Holy Sword!"
Seeing that her partner was not restrained in her attacks, Irina hurriedly spoke up to remind her.
"Hmm... It's too difficult. Besides, when dealing with these guys who betrayed the Lord, my instinct is to kill them."
As she spoke, Xenovia couldn't help but kill more than a dozen traitor exorcists.
Ryan seed to have no interest in this group of minions. He just stood in the back and watched this one-sided crushing battle.
"Really? Why is it so noisy outside? Could it be soone from the church coming over?"
At this ti, a male voice ca from a distance.
After dealing with the enemy in front of them, the church duo looked at the owner of the voice, who was an old man in his sixties dressed as a priest.
After seeing who was coming, Xenovia and Irina frowned and their expressions turned disgusted.
"...Valper Galilei!"
Valper Galilei, once the mastermind behind the Holy Sword Project and a high-ranking priest in the Church, has now betrayed the Church due to his own selfish desires and beco one of the rebels.
"Oh my... Isn't this Xenovia Quarta and Irina Shidou, the wielders of the 'Holy Sword of Destruction' and the 'Holy Sword of Mimicry'? It seems like we haven't seen each other for a few years."
Facing the stares of the two won, the old priest nad Valper Galilei smiled indifferently and sighed softly.
"Those who betrayed the Church have no right to speak our nas! Valper Galilei, tell us where the Sword of Kings was stolen by the 'Khaos Brigade'! And what is your purpose in hiding here?!"
Xenovia demanded angrily.
