"Irina duck," Xenovia shouted.

Hearing her friends shout, the chestnut-haired girl dropped to the ground and rolled away. As she did, the sound of claws slicing through the air where she was could be heard.

"Thanks, Xenovia," Irina said, jumping up and redying the light sword in her hand to deal with the stray devil.

Xenovia looked over at Irina without a word. Irina knew what Xenovia was thinking and agreed with the plan.

Irina jumped at the stray devil slashing with the light sword. Irina waited until she brought her sword down in an overhead slashing movement.

Irina overloaded the light elements in the sword as her light sword clashed against the devil's sword. The sword turned into an eye-blinding flash of light, and the devil screeched in pain.

Irina jumped back as Xenovia used her light sword to cut the stray devil down.

"May god forgive you for straying onto the path of evil," Irina said as she looked at the stray devil's dead body.

"We need to clean up before anyone comes," Xenovia said.

"Okay," Irina said as she closed her eyes and started the equation for the basic fire spell.

A large ball of fire burst out of the magic circle and engulfed the corpse of the devil, and turned it into ash in a few minutes.

Iring let the spell fade away and looked around, making sure that no body parts were left behind as Xenovia used holy water to wash away the blood of the stray devil.

"The church won't be happy about you using the holy sword as a light flashbang," Xenovia said, walking over to Irina.

"Killing a vile monster in exchange for a mass-produced light sword seems like a good deal to me," Irina said.

"Come on, let's report to the local church and then head back to the Vatican; Griselda is expecting us," Xenovia said.

Xenovia and Irina took one last look before they left and headed back to the small church on the edge of Rome.

"Do you think it's odd a stray devil on the edge of Rome? There is no devil-held territory in Italy at all," Irina asked aloud.

"Who knows, with strays, all of them have gone mad. They don't even bother trying to hide their tracks," Xenovia said with a shrug.

"Shame he was so weak. I didn't even get to us, Mimic," Irina said as her hand brushed a ribbon wrapped around her arm.

"I don't know any stray devils that would require us to use Excaliber or Durandal," Xenovia said.

"That's true. It would have to be a high-class devil or stronger," Irina suggested.

Irina and Xenovia walked into the small church and to the bishop, who was waiting for them.

"Has the sinner been taken care of?" the bishop asked.

"Yes, Bishop," Xenovia replied.

"Thank you, girls. Will you be heading back to the Vatican, or can you stay the night?"

"Im sorry, bishop, but we have to return as soon as possible," Xenovia said.

"I see. I wish you safe travels then."

"Thank you, bishop," Irina said before they turned around and left the church.

"Shame there isn't a bus this late," Irina said as they walked down the path from the church.

"Walking lets us be grateful for what god has given us,"


"Finally, we are here," Irina said, happy to be stepping back into the Vatican City.

"Have you noticed?" Xenovia asked.

Irina frowned as she looked around the city. It took a few seconds before she noticed what Xenovia was talking about.

"What's with all the exorcists patrolling?" Irina asked, confused.

"Let's hurry back. Maybe it has something to do with what Griselda wanted to talk about?" Xenovia said.

Irina nodded, looking serious. Whatever had happened or the information the church had gotten must have made them very twitchy. Irina was sure they would have been detained if it wasn't for the fact that she and Xenovia were carrying Excalibur's.

The holy aura they gave off was something that couldn't be faked.

The two girls made their way through the city and to the Vatican.

Normally both girls would take their time admiring the building and taking in the peaceful atmosphere, but today they walked as quickly as they could through the halls and to the office of Griselda.

Knocking on the door, Griselda's voice called them in.

Both girls entered the room, walked over to the desk, and sat, waiting for Griselda to finish her work.

"Im sure you have noticed the situation outside?" Griselda asked, putting her pen down.

"Yes, has something happened?" Irina asked.

"There have been attacks on churches all around Rome and Italy," Griselda said, shocking both girls.

"Attacks on churches?" Irina mumbled, still shocked.

"Who would do such a thing? They must know the fallout for such a thing?" Xenovia asked with slight anger.

"We don't know yet the attacks were coronated, and there have been no survivors, and we haven't found any clues yet," Griselda said, looking frustrated.

"You must have some guesses, right?" Irina asked.

"Guesses isn't proof, and we can't just blame whoever we want. Both of you rest for tonight. In the morning, you will be patrolling around Rome," Griselda said.

"You are expecting more attacks?" Xenovia asked.

"More attacks even with our guard up?" Irina said, surprised.

"We think so. Irina, you have been given permission to use the unknown holy sword and Xenovia, you have been cleared to use Durandal," Griselda informed the two exorcists as she pulled a card out of a drawer and slid it over to Irina.

"I thought the church didn't want me using the card till they had inspected it?" Irina asked, looking at the card.

The card was golden with the figure of a knight holding a sword. Both the knight and the sword were none descript, and on the bottom of the card was the word Saber.

Irina had found the card in a stall on one of their missions and felt drawn to it. So she bought it and during a fight against a vampire that she and Xenovia was losing.

Irina had felt the card calling to her. On instinct, she had pulled the card out and changed her light element into the card.

To her shock, the card turned into the holy sword, which had been the turning point of the fight as they hadn't been given the shards of Excalibur they now used, and Xenovia didn't have Durandal.

Once they returned to the church and informed them of what happened, they asked her to show them before they requested to inspect the card. It had been a week since then.

"They have. We have no idea of the holy sword's origin; it doesn't match any known description, and the runes inscribed can't be translated.

As for the magic that seals the sword into the car, it's a form of magic we have never seen before, and none of the magician organisations knows the magic either.

However, we see no danger in you using this card or the holy sword within the card.

Should something change with the card, you are to let us know immediately," Griselda warned as Irina took the card.

"Both of you go get a good rest. Tomorrow is going to be a long day," Griselda said, dismissing the two girls.

Xenovia and Irina left the room and made their way through the Vatican towards the dorms before Irina bumped into a blond-haired girl knocking her to the ground.

"Sorry, Saint Asia," Irina said, helping the girl back up.

"No, it's my fault I wasn't paying attention to where I was walking," Asia mumbled, embarrassed.

"How come you are at the Vatican, Saint Asia?" Xenovia asked.

"I was transferred here due to my sacred gear, but with the gift that God gave me, I couldn't do anything to save them," Asia said gloomily.

"You can't blame yourself for that, Saint Asia," Xenovia said.

"I just feel useless not being able to use my gift to save people," Asia said as she rubbed the rings on her fingers.

"How about you pray for them?" Irina suggested.

"Yes, I think I will before going to bed," Asia said.

"Don't stay up too late, Saint Asia tomorrow is likely to be very busy," Irina said kindly.

"I won't. I wish you both a good night and good luck for tomorrow in case I don't see you tomorrow morning," Asia said, giving them both a gentle smile.

"Good night," Irina and Xenovia replied, leaving Siant Asia and going to their room.

Irina walked over to her bed and took a seat as she pulled out the saber card that Griselda had returned to her.

"Do you think this works like Durandal does for you?" Irina asked Xenovia.

"Maybe. It's odd that only you can summon the holy sword, but another holy sword isn't a bad thing," Xenovia said as she got ready for bed.

"I guess it's just odd that someone made a Holy sword and then never used it," Irina said as she looked at the card.

"Maybe they never got a chance, or it was just a prototype?" Xenovia suggested.

"Maybe I kind of wish I knew its name, though," Irina said as she got into bed.

"Maybe one day, the inscriptions on the side will be translated?" Xenovia said.

"Maybe... Night," Irina said.

"Night," Xenovia said as she turned the light off and got into her bed.


Irina woke up to the sound of her alarm going off and reached over and stopped the alarm. Looking over, she saw that Xenovia had also woken up due to her alarm.

"Come on, let's get dressed," Xenovia said, yawing.

"Yes, maybe we can capture the person responsible before they can make another attack and hurt anyone else," Irina said, jumping out of bed and grabbing the church combat suit.

After getting dressed, both Irina and Xenovia made their way back to Griselda's office and knocked before entering the office.

"You two will be watching over the area of Rione and Monti. The church is worried that the person responsible may target the public, with the church on alert," Griselda said, showing them the area on the map.

"Do you really think they will attack the public?" Xenovia asked, sounding surprised.

"Who knows. We are hoping that they just have a grudge against the church and the innocent public won't be drawn in, but they could use the public as a way to draw our attention," Griselda said.

"Understood, we shall set off right away," Xenovia said.

"If you find anything suspicious, call for backup straight away. Whoever is responsible must be strong to be able to kill everyone in a few minutes and then vanish with no trace," Griselda warned.

"Understood," Irina and Xenovia replied seriously.

The two girls left the room and made their way through the Vatican and onto the streets of Vatican City.

"I wish we didn't need to wear the cloaks today is really warm," Irina complained as they made their way to Rione and Monti districts of Rome.

"Isn't it just as warm as Japan was during summer?" Xenovia asked.

"I didn't walk around Japan in a hooded cloak..." Irina replied, a little worried about Xenovia's sense of fashion.

Irina and Xenovia spent the rest of the morning walking around their area, looking for anything that seemed out of place.

"Do you want to try splitting up?" Irina asked Xenovia.

"No, Griselda warned us the enemy was strong. We may not be able to handle them on our own," Xenovia said, disagreeing with Irina's suggestion.

"Another lap then?" Irina said as she stopped.

"Do you feel that?" Irina asked Xenovia.

"Yes, the Colosseum has a large amount of magic and the aura of a powerful devil," Xenovia said seriously.

Irina pulled out her phone and texted Griselda about the situation.

"Come on, let's go. Maybe we can stop whatever they are planning," Irina said, rushing off towards the Colosseum.

Irina pulled the ribbon from her arm as they arrived at the Colosseum, and Xenovia pulled out a sword from under her cloak.

"A barrier?" Xenovia asked.

"Let's see what they are up to," Irina said as the ribbon turned into a katana, the type of blade she was most comfortable with.

Irina and Xenovia rushed into the Colosseum, glad to see that it was indeed empty and that they wouldn't need to worry about the public getting caught in their fight.

In the centre platform, there was a group of three people in robes, making it impossible to tell who they were, but their aura gave them away as devils.

Two of the devils were infusing magic into a circle as the third was watched over them.

"Who are you, and what are you doing in the territory of the church vile creatures," Xenovia shouted at them as they rushed to the centre.

The devil that was watching over them turned around and, without saying a word, created a magic circle, and a large firey snake was formed and attacked.

Xenovia jumped forward and slashed the fire snake with Excaliber Destruction, causing the firey snake to explode under the sword.

"Hmm, an Excaliber," the robbed man said in a cruel-sounding voice.

"How long do you need?" the robed man asked.

"A minute," one of the men at the spell circle said without stopping pouring demonic power into the circle.

"Okay," the man said.

Raising both arms, two spell circles formed, and lightning shot out of them both, making Irina and Xenovia jump out of the way. The devil didn't give them any chance to retaliate as he fired balls of explosions at the two girls.

"I will make an opening," Xenovia said to Irina as she brought Excaliber Destruction onto the ground.

A loud explosion was heard, and a large pit in the ground formed, making everyone shake and stumble.

Seeing her chance, Irina rushed forward as the devil was focused on not falling over instead of his magic.

The devil jumped back as Irina slashed at him with Mimic. The robed devil skillfully avoided Irina's attacks.

The devil sensed something wrong and jumped away from Irina as Xenovia brought Destruction down exactly where he was just standing.

As the devil was in the air, he created two more magic circles and blasted lightning at Irina and Xenovia.

Seeing the lightning, Irina and Xenovia jumped away, knowing they couldn't use metal swords to block the lightning like Xenovia had done with the fire snake.

"Where is the backup," Irina asked as she glanced over at the two other devils at the magic circle.

"You go for the devils at the magic circle, and I will hold him off," Xenovia said as she glared coldly at the devils.

Irina nodded and rushed towards the two devils at the magic circle while avoiding the lightning that the 3rd devil shot at her.

Jumping up into the air, Irina brandished Mimic and brought it down like an executioner would bring down his axe.

Before her sword could make a contract with either of the devils, the magic circle erupted into a bright light. A spiked club hit Irina's sword sending her flying back.

Irina landed on the ground, and Xenovia rushed over to her as the 3rd devil landed next to the magic circle.

"You okay?" Xenovia asked.

"Im good. Be careful this guy is incredibly strong," Irina said as her hands were still stinging from the force of his last blow.

Once the light faded, a giant of a man with pale skin covered in hundreds of scars holding a mace could be seen. Irina was reminded of Vasco Strada, who was also just pure muscle like this man.

"Oh have you managed to fix the problems with the summoning?" the man asked, smiling.

"Yes, and we have some exorcists here as well," the devil said the giant pointing towards Irina and Xenovia.

"Oh," the giant said, looking over at the two girls.

"The girl with pigtails is someone that benefited from the Holy Sword Project," the devil said.

Irina saw the scared giant look over at her with malice and disgust in his eyes, and she felt a shiver run down her spine. The man let out a creepy laugh with a twisted smile on his face.

Everyone turned to look at the entrance as voices and people running could be heard. Irina and Xenovia let out a sigh of relief, seeing that a group of exorcists were entering the Colosseum.

"We will deal with the big guy. You deal with the devils," Xenovia ordered the exorcists.

"Understood," the leader of the group said, and they rushed over to the devils with light swords drawn.

The giant let out a booming laugh before rushing over at Irina and Xenovia. The ground under his feet cracked with the force of his running.

Xenovia jumped forward and slashed with Excaliber Destruction, and the giant responded with the large spiked iron bat. Xenovia was surprised to see that the bat didn't get blown back when it hit Excaliber Destruction.

The giant mealy swayed back a tiny amount.

Irina was surprised to see how unaffected he was, but that didn't stop her attack, and she cut a bone-deep cut into his belly before jumping away to avoid the large meaty hand that tried to grab her.

Irina and Xenovia landed only to gape as the wound on his belly knitted itself together. The two girls looked at each other, thinking the same thing.

"Peter, Basilius, Dionysius, and the Blessed Virgin Mary. Please hear my Prayers," Xenovia chanted, holding her hand out to the side.

A golden magic circle formed, and a blue sword with golden edges emerged wrapped in chains.

"In the name of the saint living in this blade... I set you free, Durandal," Xenovia said, finishing her chant, and the chains wrapped around the blade broke as she pulled it free.

A violent holy aura radiated from Durandal and Xenovia as the ground below cracked from the aura.

Irina pulled out her saber card and poured her light element inside, causing it to glow brightly and transform.

A western-style sword longsword formed in Irina's hand, its golden blade shining brightly, and a blue and red sheath appeared on her waist, and Mimic turned into a belt.

A fiery holy aura radiated from the Golden sword in Irina's hands.

The giant laughed while looking at the two swords in the hands of Irina and Xenovia before he rushed at the two girls again, catching them off guard.

Unlike the shards of Excaliber, the aura emanating from the two complete holy swords would make most people pause.

Irina rushed forward and slashed at the giant, clashing against the spiked club, a wave of heat exploded from Irina's sword.

Xenovia wasted no time attacking. She slashed at the giant with Durandal, who paid her no mind and launched into a flurry of attacks against Irina.

Irina felt her arms screaming out with every hit as she was slowly pushed back with every blow.

Xenovia had landed many attacks on the giant while he was attacking Irina. Still, it didn't seem to slow him down and just spurred him on in his attacks.

Xenovia frowned as she attacked the giant again, angry that he had shrugged off her attacks, and a fierce violet aura busted out of Durandal in response to her annoyance.

The giant spun around faster than Xenovia, though it was possible, given his size and swung the club at Xenovia. Durandal and the thick club clashed together.

For a moment, neither weapon moved and then Durandal bit into the club before slicing cleanly through.

Irina didn't waste her chance and pushed her light energy into the longsword and made two lightning-fast slashes into the back of the giant.

The repulsive smell of burning flesh filled the air as the giant let out a mad roar and twisted around, brandishing the club. Irina quickly darted away and regrouped with Xenovia.

Both of the girls were panting. The giant turned around, and with a mad roar, he charged at them both, smashing everything in his way with his club.

Both girls jumped away and kept avoiding the enraged giant swings, unable to get close enough to the giant to attack.

"We can't keep running away. The other exorcists aren't close to beating the devils," Xenovia said, making Irina look over at the exorcists fighting the devils.

Irina saw that Xenovia was right. The exorcists hadn't managed to beat a single one of the devils yet, and two of the exorcists were injured.

"Okay," Irina said, knowing Xenovia was right. They would tire out before the giant that was chasing after them.

Irina spun around and pelt at the giant, her sword glowing fiercely. The spiked club smashed into the sword shooting Irina to the ground. Xenovia attacked the giant a second after Irina.

The two girls relentlessly attacked the giant as their bones and muscles started screaming in pain and protest at the abuse they were taking when blocking the giant's blows.

Sweat dripped off Irina as she jumped away from the giant after cutting him again, adding to the numerous scars that littered his body. Once again, Irina was disheartened to see the injury quickly healing.

'We need to find a way to put him down before he can hurt all the innocent people in the area', Irina scolded herself in her mind thinking about all the people just outside the barrier of the Colosseum.

A voice whispered in her ear. It was a girls, and it had a noble but gentle tone to it.

"Watch... Victory... Sword... The wicked..." the voice whispered.

Irina frowned but put the voice out of her mind as she had to dodge the giant once again.

Before the girls could attack again, an enormous holy aura from above got everyone's attention. A man dropped from the sky and landed with holy aura wrapped around his fists and flowing up his arms.

The man was a two-meter tall, white-haired old man with wrinkles and an extremely developed muscular build.

"Preist Vasco," Irina said, enormously grateful that one of the strongest members of the church was here.

"Vasco Strada," one of the devils said, taking a step back.

Vasco glanced over at him before focusing on the giant Irina and Xenovia were fighting.

"Go help them deal with the devils. I will deal with this guy," Vasco said to Irina and Xenovia as he clenched his hands into fists.

"Who are you, and why are you doing this?" Vasco asked.

"I am Spartacus, and I shall never turn a blind eye to oppressors," Spartacus shouted proudly.

"Oppressors?" Vasco asked, confused.

"Don't pretend the Sigurd Institution, The Holy Sword Project," Spartacus asked.

Vasco frowned at the two projects that the man Spartacus mentioned.

Spartacus didn't wait for a response and charged at the man.

Irina and Xenovia rushed over to the three devils and jumped into the fight.

"You take the one on the far left, I will take the middle, and Xenovia will hold off the leader," Irina called out.

The two exorcists switched and started to attack the one devil together. Quickly, they managed to land a few cuts on the devil, making him collapse from the holy power in the light swords.

Seeing the devil incapacitated, the two exorcists dealt killing blows to the devil before going to the injured exorcists and guarding them.

Irina slashed at the other supporting devil, who jumped away, and his wings sprouted, and he took to the sky.

Irina pulled the Mimic from her waist and flicked it at the devil, and Mimic turned into a barbed whip that lashed after the devil and wrapped around his ankle.

Irina wrenched Mimic back, dragging the devil back, and she jumped at the falling devil and cut him in half before she landed on the ground and wrapped Mimic back around her waist and rushed over to help Xenovia.

The last devil jumped away as green magic circles formed, and a green crystal barrier formed, blocking Irina and Xenovia.

Irina and Xenovia struck the barrier with their holy swords, making it quickly shatter. Irina and Xenovia rushed towards the devil, but it was too late.

A green magic circle formed under the devil's feet, and he vanished under a green flash of light.

"Did you see the crest?" Xenovia asked.

"No, it was obscure," Irina replied.

With the devils dealt with, they all turned around to see how Vasco was doing against Sparticas.

The two men were still fighting, both men's fists flying at each other. Both men were covered in their own blood, but Sparticas wounds had healed, unlike Vasco's.

However, it quickly became apparent that Vasco was slowly winning as Spartacus was being pushed back little by little. Irina looked over at Xenovia, who nodded at Irina in silent understanding.

Irina and Xenovia dashed forward, coming up behind Spartacus, and leapt into the air to get a good strike. Their holy swords hummed with power as the two girls brought the blades down on Spartacus.

Spartacus must have felt the danger as he tried to dodge, but Vasco pushed him back. Irina and Xenovia's blades cleaved into the shoulders of Spartacus as blood erupted from the wounds.

"Holy Fist!" Vasco called out, making Irina and Xenovia jump away.

An overpowering amount of holy aura burst from Vasco, and smashed his fist into Spartacus's chest. The sickening sound of breaking bones pierced the air before Spartacus was shot across the fighting pit.

Spartacus crashed into the wall with a loud boom and a big cloud of dust.

The dust slowly cleared, and Spartacus could be seen panting on the floor, coughing up blood. On his chest was a spine-chilling fist mark.

Spartacus tried to get to his feet before stumbling over again.

"Give up. You can't win," Vasco stated.

"Give up? I don't know the meaning of the word," Spartacus roared back.

Spartacus started to convulse on the ground as purple lightning crackled around him.

"I will bring you all with me!" Spartacus shouted before breaking into crazy laughter.

In a few seconds, his body had swelled up.

"Run, get away quickly. He is going to blow himself up," Vasco shouted as he sprinted over to Spartacus.

"Blow himself up," Irina said, shocked.

"We have to go quickly, Irina," Xenovia said, pulling on her arm urgently.

"Go where? What about all the people outside?" Irina asked Xenovia.

Irina and Xenovia looked back over at Spartacus and Vasco. They could feel a horrific amount of energy in the still swelling body of Spartacus.

"Maybe the three of us can kill him before he can blow himself up?" Irina suggested.

Vasco let out a roar as he grabbed Spartacus and pulled him away from the wall, and started to spin Spartacus around faster and faster.

With a final roar, Vasco threw Spartacus into the air panting from exhaustion as he did so.

"If he blows up there, no one should get hurt, right?" Irina asked out loud.

"It depends on how big the explosion is, but it should be fine," Xenovia said unsurely.

"Why are you both still here? I instructed you to run," Vasco said in an angry tone.

"How can we run? When people are in danger," Irina asked back.

A loud roar and a bright purple light in the sky made everyone look up.

Irina wondered if the barrier around the Colosseum was still intact or if that had broken at some point when the devils were defeated.

"That doesn't look like he is going to blow up?" Xenovia said.

"Damn it, we will have to try and block it," Vasco said as Holy Power converged on his fists.

Irina could feel a cold sweat on her face, not at the fear of dying. She didn't fear dying. Instead, she felt fear and sorrow for everyone else that would die due to this one madman.

Irina channelled all of her light energy into her Holy sword, causing it to emit a powerful glow and hum.

The concentrated purple light transformed into a single point and then suddenly burst into a destructive beam.

Irina stepped forward, ready to try and block the beam before the world flashed around her.

She had gone from the Colosseum to a field covered in flowers in a single blink.

Irina looked around, confused.

"Hello," a joyful voice said, making Irina spin around in shock.

Stood a few feet from her was another girl with golden hair tied with a black bow. She was wearing a white dress with blue accents and blue leggings.

The most noticeable thing, however, was the sword in the girl's hand.

"Who are you, and why do you have that sword?" Irina asked.

"Me?" the girl asked, pointing to herself.

"Im Lily, and this is my sword. Of course, I would have it?" Lily replied.

"Your sword?" Irina asked, confused.

"Mmm... it seems like your in some trouble, right?" Lily asked.

"Yes, I need you to send me back right now," Irina said pleadingly.

"Oh, how do you plan on dealing with the situation?"

"I don't know, but I have to try something," Irina said firmly.

"Of course you do. You have taken the responsibility to protect people from the evil in the world, and you still haven't fulfilled your hopes and dreams either," Lily stated enthusiastically.

"Ya, but how," Irina said, pouting and sullen.

"With my sword, of course," Lily stated.

"Your Holy sword is strong, but I don't think it can block that attack," Irina said bluntly.

"Don't be so sure, here maybe this time you will be able to hear," Lily said as she pulled the Holy sword out of its sheath.

Irina blinked as she realised that she was back in the Colosseum.

Irina rushed forward, jumping around Vasco.

"Irina!" Xenovia shouted, seeing her friend run up.

Irina wasted no time and poured all of the light energy in her body directly into the Holy sword.

"Sword of Selection, grant me the power to protect!"

"Cleave the wicked! Caliburn!"

The holy sword burst into a golden light that drowned out everything in the area. With great effort, Irina slashed Caliburn at the purple beam, and the golden light erupted forward and blanketed the sky.

Irina stumbled back, panting as her body felt ice cold. Caliburn, in her hand, broke into golden light and reverted back into the saber card.

Unable to keep standing, Irina fell to the ground as the world started spinning.


"Irina," Xenovia shouted, seeing Irina fall onto the ground.

Xenovia rushed over to Irina with Vasco. After checking, Irina Xenovia was relieved that she seemed exhausted and passed out.

"She just overused her Holy element. She will be fine after a rest," Vasco said as he looked around.

"Let's get her back to the Vatican just in case," Xenovia said, still a little worried.

"Hmm?" Vasco said as he looked up into the sky.

"What is it?" Xenovia asked as she saw something falling from the sky.

Vasco walked over and picked it up.

"A card it looks a lot like Irina's," Vasco said, inspecting the card.

Xenovia walked over, carrying Irina.

"No, Irina's says Saber on it. This one says Berserker," Xenovia said, holding out Irina's Saber card to show the difference.

"Come on, let's return. We can worry about this after this mess has been cleaned up," Vasco said.
