Don't Forget to Review!!

Both sides were radiating intense hostility, and the people who were originally in the park had long left due to the shift in atmosphere.

"Asia, little sister, we finally found you," one of the male fallen angels said with a gentle smile. "Leaving the church to join the Devils, you've really broken our hearts."

"Yes, indeed. And we treated you so well," another female fallen angel, dressed very provocatively, laughed.

Actually, all three female fallen angels were scantily clad, their clothing barely covering them...

At a glance, one could easily see everything.

In comparison, Rias and her group seemed much more normal.

Just like the Stray Devils, these fallen angels had completely deviated from the original purpose of angels, now entirely ruled by desire. After sinking into their desires, it became common for them to indulge with various beings, so their revealing attire was no surprise.

Asia was terrified at the sight of these people. After joining Rias team at Badr's invitation, she realized that the Devils were nothing like how the church described them.

Here, she made many friends, something she never dared to dream of before.

Previously, people in the church labeled her, once a saint, as a heretic because her abilities could heal even Devils.

Later, some individuals began coveting the sacred gear within her.

Though Asia was adorably naive, she wasn't foolish. She could distinguish between genuine kindness and falsehood.

Moreover, after witnessing a priest brutally murder a human woman during a mission, she lost all affection for the church and easily joined Rias Devil faction.

But she didn't expect that these people would still come after her. When she completed a contract mission and was discovered by these individuals, she was nearly captured.

Luckily, Badr had encountered similar situations before, and Rias had made preparations for such occurrences. She immediately summoned Rias and the others, averting the crisis.

Seeing Asia too scared to speak, Akeno Himejima gently held her hand. "Don't worry, no one can hurt you."

Asia regained her confidence and nodded firmly. "Yes!"

Apart from Badr, Akeno Himejima was the one who took the most care of her, being an incredibly gentle senior.

Seeing the arrogance of the fallen angels, Rias coldly smiled, stepping forward with a hand on her hip. "Good evening, ladies and gentlemen of the fallen angels. What are you planning to do to my adorable servant, Asia?"

Her tone was icy, standing there with one hand on her hip and a crimson flame rising from her palm. She looked both elegant and deadly.

"We just want to reclaim our saint. When did the princess of the Gremory family start stealing from others?" one of the male fallen angels said with a constant smile, despite the evident hostility.

"Saint? Asia is now a Devil, my adorable servant. How dare you covet my servant? Are you asking for a fight?"

"Joke! Do you think we're afraid of you? The Gremory family is nothing special, just a bunch of struggling individuals," a female fallen angel sneered. "Enough talk! Kill them and take Asia back. The Twilight Healing cannot fall into others' hands!"

Rias face darkened. "You can try!"

With a screech, the battle began. The fallen angels launched spears of light, but before they could hit, golden lightning struck from the sky, shattering the spears.

"Ara ara, it seems I'll have to get serious today," Akeno Himejima smiled, her eyes narrowing into cute crescent shapes, yet she attacked with immense power.

Her clothes quickly dissipated, transforming into a shrine maiden outfit with a flash of light.

The fallen angels' pupils contracted. "The Maiden of Thunder..."

A flash of dread crossed their eyes. Akeno Himejima's presence posed a significant threat. But they had six members, while Rias side only had three capable fighters, with Asia being a non-combatant.

"Stephanie, go capture Asia. We'll handle the rest," the leading fallen angel ordered. To ensure success, they had brought top-tier fallen angels, including two high-class ones, anticipating strong opponents like Rias.

Stephanie took to the sky, looking for an opportunity to strike.

Rias and her team frowned. Their numbers were unfavorable. Despite Rias and Akeno's strength, the two high-class fallen angels would keep them busy. Koneko Toujou could handle two, but Asia couldn't defend against a fallen angel.

Where is Badr...

Worried, Rias maintained a composed facade, her aura undiminished. "Akeno, bring them down!"

"Yes, President," Akeno smiled, flying into the sky, raising her hand, and summoning golden lightning.

Crack!

The lightning struck down, targeting the fallen angels, causing their expressions to darken.

"Arrogant!" They ascended, wielding spears of light, clashing with Akeno's lightning.

The battle was fierce, with Rias and Akeno facing off against three fallen angels. Rias used her fire magic while Akeno summoned more lightning, both suffering minor injuries but showing no signs of retreat.

Koneko Toujou, defending Asia on the ground, struggled against two fallen angels, sustaining injuries. Asia continuously used her healing powers, while her familiar, the Thunder Dragon, attempted to help, though its attacks were mostly ignored.

Rias and her team had to be wary of Stephanie, who occasionally launched surprise attacks, injuring them further.

"Hehe, futile struggle," Stephanie mocked, finding an opening. With Rias and Akeno occupied and Koneko pushed back, Asia was vulnerable.

Stephanie turned into a streak of light, heading straight for Asia.

"Watch out!" Koneko warned, but Asia's reaction was slow. They could only watch as Stephanie closed in.

"Asia!!" Rias shouted, abandoning her opponent to defend, but her adversary was relentless.

Just as Stephanie was about to grab Asia, a silver shield suddenly appeared before the girl, creating a force field.

Bang!

Stephanie was thrown back, hitting an invisible wall.

"What is this?" The fallen angels were stunned by the mysterious shield.

A moment later, a silver streak landed between them and Koneko, followed by a figure leaping from a high building, landing with a crash.

Badr arrived with a superhero landing, cracking the stone ground.

"Badr!" The girls exclaimed in relief.

Badr glanced at the girls, seeing their minor injuries. "Sorry, I'm late."

He summoned his sword and shield, which floated to his side.

Rias smiled. "Not too late. Protect Asia while we deal with them."

"Got it." Badr nodded, readying his weapons.
