However, this mad scientist, deeply deceived, would not believe it.

You could say he had become a fervent believer, indifferent to life and death, convinced that even if his body perished, his soul would achieve eternal life under the protection of his god.

"Tsk tsk... the words of a devil are never to be trusted."

Ituso's bloodshot eyes gleamed with madness, emitting a hysterical laugh, "Well then... let me show you our great creation!"

He spread his arms, and the machinery behind him roared. The ground slowly opened a hole, lifting a cage from within.

Inside the special metal cage imbued with holy power stood a young boy with closed eyes, looking no different from an ordinary human.

But to Badr and the others, it seemed this boy harbored an immense holy power within him.

"Experiment number 02, one of our two most perfect subjects to date. Using you devils to test his power is more than fitting. Gahaha, I can't wait to see his performance. He's our creation, our god."

Badr smirked, amused by the narrow-mindedness of this human scientist.

Such ignorance is indeed laughable...

"Is this level of power worthy of being called a god?"

He smiled lightly, his tone calm, but to Ituso, it sounded full of mockery.

"Hmph, you devils are as arrogant as ever. Those infiltrators before were the same, and they ended up being captured alive! Hahaha... very well, you too will be captured!"

Ituso rubbed his hands together excitedly, his gaze sweeping over Badr, Rias, and the others. He disgustingly licked his lips:

"After all, you make excellent experimental subjects..."

---

The mad scientist's behavior directly incited Rias's anger.

"Hah, let me show you our masterpiece. Number 02, capture them, but don't kill them completely."

At Ituso's command, the cage beside him opened on its own, and the previously motionless boy abruptly opened his eyes.

Those eyes were a deep green.

Brilliant light patterns emerged on Number 02's body, quickly forming into a suit of holy armor. Simultaneously, a light sword materialized in his hand.

Rias and Badr sensed a wave of holy power from him, seemingly close to that of a high-ranking devil?

The next moment, Number 02 launched an assault, moving at a speed rivaling Badr's enhanced by the Knight piece.

Badr immediately raised the Shield, activating the full protective field.

Crack!!

A clear sound echoed as the protective field of the Shield was shattered with one strike!

Badr's eyes narrowed as he grabbed the physical shield in front of him. The next moment, the blade of the light sword struck heavily against the shield.

Bang!!

A severe numbness spread through his arm, and Badr's body was pushed back over a meter by the powerful force.

Without hesitation, Badr counterattacked with a swift slash, his magical power surging. The King's Sword struck Number 02, but what could easily pierce holy power was blocked, only knocking Number 02 away without cutting his body.

As the dust settled, Number 02 emerged unscathed, his holy armor gleaming without a scratch.

"Huh? Not bad."
