Chapter 74: Chapter 74

Kuroka kept on the alert. Though she was worried about Drako, she was sure he could deal with the devil, even for a short time. But Kuroka was convinced that these three girls could do nothing against this fallen angel.

It would be instant death.

Besides, it seemed Raynare had a complicated history with this man. Problems with a family member directly related to blood, that was always a complicated thing to deal with.

And it seems like it's not a regular problem. This man, Shuri had called him Suriel, didn't seem to think his niece was a living thing, treating her directly like dirt. This seemed to be because she was a hybrid just like Akeno, whom he was also treating like trash.

Wait.

Raynare was a hybrid?

She had never said anything about this, and Barakiel and Shuri had kept it from her, too. It did not appear that the couple had kept it to themselves because they did not know, as Shuri had not reacted at all to the words of this fallen angel.

"What's going on here?"

Kuroka had to ask. She's a cat, and you know what they say about cats.

"He's Suriel, a former member of Grigori. He's on Grigori's wanted list, a criminal wanted by all organizations. As to the reason for this..." Shuri seemed to hesitate.

She looked up at Raynare, who was paralyzed without moving. The young fallen angel's breathing was quickening greatly, and she barely seemed to be able to stand for long.

Shuri finally sighed, she could not hide this for long. Besides, this might be the best time for Raynare to step forward and overcome her trauma. It was these situations, the least expected, that could perform miracles.

"He is accused of killing his older brother, his wife, and abusing physically and emotionally his niece. That is his crime."

Kuroka shuddered at Shuri's words. After all Kuroka had heard in the past few minutes, she understood perfectly who Shuri was referring to when she spoke of Suriel's niece.

Boop.

Raynare was no longer able to stand, falling to the ground with one blow.

"Pathetic," Suriel mumbled.

Raynare did not even dare raise her head, bending it as far as she could.

Akeno was very frightened as well, she was hiding behind Shuri. She was small, but she understood that the man was addressing her when he was insulting the hybrids. Though surprised to learn that Raynare was like her, Akeno was too afraid to think about it too much.

"Sorry, human whore, but there's something you're wrong about. I never killed my brother or that filthy human scum. And if abusing my niece is how you consider training a person with some potential, then I can't deny what I did." Suriel says.

"You think I'm going to believe the words of a criminal? Your presence here and your motives, which are quite obvious, are more than proof that you are a criminal. You, Suriel, are evil. Besides, you were the only person at the scene of your brother's murder at the time of the murder. All the evidence is on your person, Suriel."

Shuri says to him, serious face and evident hatred. Shuri did not even bother to hide the hatred she felt for Suriel.

"You're wrong, I wasn't the only person in that place. There was one more person in that house that day."

It seemed the world had come to a standstill for Shuri. What Suriel said was true, there was one more person that day. But she was just a little girl, she wasn't even 8 years old at the time.

Though Shuri could not believe it, she could not help but look at the girl sitting on the floor.

Raynare was the only survivor of the fire that day. That fire that everyone thought Suriel had set.

"Say it, Raynare! Tell this human how you burned your parents alive! Say it!"

Suriel was screaming and gesticulating like a madman.

"No, it wasn't me. It wasn't me. I didn't do it."

Raynare murmured, it seemed her spirit had been torn from her body.

"Yes, you were! I saw it! Vretil, your father, and I are sons of the seraphim Uriel, which makes you his granddaughter. Uriel is similar to Barakiel in a sense. If the latter is known as Lighting of God, the former is known as Fire of God. It's ironic that neither Vretil nor I inherited his sacred fire, but that a filthy hybrid like you did. But not only that, you had to awaken a Sacred Gear of the highest order."

"I didn't do it. Shut up, shut up now. I didn't do it, I didn't do it."

"You did it! But nobody believed me when I said it. Even that bastard Azazel kicked me out of the organization... All because of you! Because of a fucking hybrid! Because of a mistake that should never have been born! Your power should be mine! Only I deserve Uriel's power!"

Kuroka had no doubts, this guy was totally crazy. She could not bear to see the state Raynare was in, she seemed to be on the verge of breaking down mentally, and was going to interrupt the conversation. But there was something that interrupted her, something that filled her with joy.

Kuroka had been aware of Drako's situation the entire time. As much as she had to protect Shuri and company, she would not hesitate to come to Drako's aid if he found himself in a critical situation.

Currently, Drako's aura was increasing by leaps and bounds.

Drako's size was increasing as well, he seemed to be transforming.

Kuroka knew what was happening.

Drako was evolving.

"GuuuuruugaaaAAAAAAAA!"

Chapter 75: I want to live!

"GuuuuruugaaaAAAAAAAA!"

The dragon's roar echoed in the ears of all present.

"Is that... Drako?"

Shuri muttered.

Kuroka was unable to hide the smile on her face. But someone else did not seem happy with this outcome.

"Tsk. That damned devil is useless, why hasn't he killed that little dragon? And to think that a mere child would complicate our mission. Well, I'm not going to waste any more time, and I'm going to kill you now."

As such, the fallen angel created a lance of light in his hand. He did not hesitate for a moment to hurl the spear of light at Shuri, his first target.

He was already preparing another spear of light when he felt his connection to the spear of light had been severed. His senses of alarm warned him, and he quickly dodged to one side.

A sort of black circle brushed past him. To Suriel's surprise, he could tell that these circles were so dangerous that they could easily cut through his skin.

He, as an experienced fallen angel, could tell what these circles were after observing them for a brief moment.

"Kasha... How fucking troublesome. Hey, Nekomata, why don't you go fuck yourself? You're not part of Grigori, you don't have to defend them. Save me a problem, kid, and leave this place."

Suriel had nothing against this Nekomata, his mission was only to kill Shuri, Akeno, and Raynare. Usually, he would not let the Nekomata out. Still, the invariance of her and the dragon on the outside left his wrists bound with mytrhil rope.

Kuroka only smiled at Suriel's question. The man should at least ask politely, no? Especially if you are requesting a bodyguard to stop covering for her employer, even though Kuroka is doing this for free.

"Mmmm... it's a tempting offer-Nya. What should I do? What should I do? This fallen angel-san seems strong and dangerous, but Drako told me that I should take care of these girls. But I don't want to lose my life either... I don't know what to do, I don't know what to do."

Kuroka knew what she was doing right now. As much as she liked to annoy people, she was doing it with a purpose in mind.

"Maybe I have to ask more people's opinion. For example, Himejima Akeno-chan."

Kuroka pointed to the little Akeno, who was shaking as she hid behind her mother.

"...Yes?" she asked hesitantly.

"What should I do? Should I risk my life for people I have known for only a few weeks? Or should I go and help the man I am in love with? What do you think, Akeno? What would you do if you were in my place?"

Kuroka was asking Akeno, because it was useless to ask Raynare because of her weak mental state, and because asking Shuri would be foolish. Akeno was the most innocent person in this place, so Suriel shouldn't raise his guard a bit.

Kuroka was not only doing this to taunt Suriel, but it also was but to buy time for Drako. She could sense that the lifespan of the devil had been drastically reduced, although she was not quite sure why. But one thing was clear, Drako was going to win against that devil.

"I... I don't know, I don't know. I just want to live. I don't want to die, Kuroka-neesama. First, it was the strange men the other day, and now it's this bad man who hurt Raynare-neechan who wants to kill me too. Why can't I live?"

Akeno's words softened Kuroka's heart. They had brought back memories of the past, and she had willingly participated in inhuman experiments just so that she and Shirone could survive. Kuroka had felt despair, probably the same as Akeno was feeling at the moment.

Kuroka reached out to little Akeno and stroked the little girl's head.

"Do not worry, Kuroka-neesama and Drako will take care of all the bad guys. You don't have to worry about anything, okay?"

Akeno looked into Kuroka's eyes, and the Nekoshou could see that, though still a bit frightened, Akeno had some hope in her pure purple eyes.

"Yes!"

That's when the earth shook.

A ray of light passed through the window, frightening everyone in the inner courtyard of the shrine.

"That's..."

"Sacred Light."

Shuri had begun to speak, trying to guess the source of that ray of light. The one who responded was Suriel, for that sacred light was very similar to the one he had, although a bit different.

If that dragon was capable of using the holy attribute, the devil with the name Mammon was going to have a lot of trouble. In fact, Suriel was already telling Mammon how he died in combat.

Not only was the devil facing a dragon, but the dragon had control over the sacred attribute. It is common knowledge that the nemesis of the devils is the sacred attribute, and there is no need to mention the terrifying creatures that dragons are.

That's when Suriel realised.

After so many years of life and missions both in Grigori and in his new organisation, Suriel had made a fatal mistake.

He had underestimated the enemy.

From the first moment, he thought this was going to be an easy and simple mission. All he had to do was kill a woman with a bit of skill in eradicating spirits and her daughter. For that simple mission, the first group of thirty were more than enough.

But these unknown variables had to come into play...

That little dragon that with a bow had eliminated the two groups, fallen angels and devils, before they could even reach 100 meters away.

A dragon with a bow, that was just too incredible.

To deal with that variable, the upper-class devil Mammon had been displaced to neutralise it. At the very least, the devil had to entertain the dragon while Suriel had to finish off the rest of the targets.
