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.

Chapter 76: [Kasha] vs Holy Fire Spears

But Suriel would never have expected to find another variable in the form of Nekomata.

Not only that, but the Nekomata seemed to be much stronger than that dragon. She had already proven herself a fearsome opponent with that [Kasha] she had used. Suriel feared that she was even more powerful than he was.

Of course, he had an ace up his sleeve. If he didn't, he would have abandoned this mission by now.

But even if he had a secret weapon, he preferred not to have to show it. So he had allowed Kuroka to withdraw and not interfere with his actions.

The Nekoshou had not yet given him an answer, and he had been waiting foolishly for one.

Suriel had not realized this until he saw the lightning.

There was no doubt, the enemy had played with them. Mammon was going to die sooner or later, and the dragon was going to come to the aid of the girls in no time.

Suriel, who believed he had at least a few hours to kill his target since it had been reported that Baraqiel would take quite some time to arrive from the "mission", now had to hurry to finish all this because of the possible threat posed by these two variables.

It was time to go all out, wiping out all the enemies. Revealing all the trump cards he had in his hand.

Raising both hands, two spears of light appeared above them. Unlike the previous spear, these spears were not yellow, but reddish in colour. These spears gave off heat, making it clear that these were no ordinary light spears.

Suriel felt his pride rise as he saw the surprised faces of Kuroka and Shuri, the only two who could understand what was happening.

"Surprised? Though my fire is less than the heavenly fire of my father, Uriel, it is still mighty."

Suriel laughed as he threw both spears of light, one toward Kuroka and the other toward Shuri. Suriel doubted that he could kill the Nekoshou with a single spear of light, but he had to at least keep her at bay while killing his true targets. As long as he killed Baraqiel's wife and daughter, he could leave with his mission accomplished.

He already had a smile on his face, thinking his mission had been accomplished.

"What?"

Suriel felt that the connection to both spears had been severed. He understood if Kuroka could finish with a single spear of light. Still, he was certain Shuri would not be able to defend against it.

Unless...

"You think you're the only one who can create more than one weapon? It seems you're dumber than I thought-nya."

Two black wheels floated around Kuroka. These were her [Kasha], she had used them to neutralize Suriel's attack.

Suriel frowned, he had underestimated the Nekoshou again.

"Is that so? I wonder, how many [Kasha] can you create?

Four spears of light appeared behind Suriel's back. He attacked aiming at the four girls.

He didn't know how many [Kasha] Kuroka could create, so he was beginning to test the girl's limits.

He wasn't surprised when he saw two more black wheels. The four [Kasha] finishing off the four spears of light.

Suriel didn't stop his attack, creating eight Light Spears. Kuroka frowned and pulled out the remaining four [Kasha].

This was getting worrying. Could Suriel create more Spears of Light?

Suriel marvelled at the sweat on Kuroka's forehead. It seemed that the Nekoshou could control no more than eight [Kasha] at once. If that was so, then this mission was already over. He decided to go all out this time, without giving Kuroka a chance to defend himself.

A spear.

Two spears.

Four spears.

Eight spears.

Sixteen Spears.

Thirty-two spears of light floated around Suriel. These were moving around the inner courtyard of the shrine, ready to attack their target.

Shuri's face paled, and she covered her daughter instinctively. Kuroka bit her lower lip, this was becoming very difficult.

Kuroka sighed, and all the [Kasha] were gone.

"Do you give up? I am sorry, but I will not give you the chance to escape." Suriel looked at Kuroka with contempt.

A half-smile appeared on Kuroka's face, puzzling Suriel. She raised a hand and drew numerous runes in the air, these were a dark colour.

"Youjutsu..."

Shuri recognized what Kuroka was doing, and so did Suriel. He gave the order to attack immediately, praying that the Nekoshou would not have enough time to finish what she was doing.

"Black Prison!"

A black, but at the same time transparent, barrier covered the group of girls before the light lances could enter a range of five meters away. The light lances collided with the barrier and disappeared.

Suriel knew this wasn't very good. He continued to create spears of light and shoot them at the barrier, hoping to destroy it as soon as possible. To his despair, none of the spears could break through the barrier.

He was racking his brain, looking for a possible solution to this desperate situation. He had to finish this mission if or if, or an unimaginable punishment would come to him as a result of failing the task. He might well kill himself before he could report his failed mission.

A light bulb went off in his head when he remembered who was among that group of women. His dear niece would listen to him if he asked you for a favour, wouldn't she?

"Raynare, you have to kill those women. If you do, you can come with your dear uncle to a place where they will accept you with open arms. You'll come back to me, the only family you have left."

Yeah, Raynare could kill the targets. He knew she had a latent power that could take him out in seconds. Now that the Nekoshou was busy maintaining the barrier, there was nothing to stop Raynare from killing Shuri and Akeno.

"Shut up, shut up." Raynare kept talking incoherently.
