Wrath Chapter 9: Rescue

Prior to the attack:

"Well then, will someone please explain what is going on, I suppose?" Beatrice spoke as she was annoyed by the fact that she didn't know what was last she remembered, she was at the Pleiades watchtower and she was too young a spirit to let her memory fail her yet. Before anybody could say anything to her, she was all of a sudden hugged by her contractor.

"Wh-What's the meaning of this?!"

"Hehe...sorry Beako, I just need this." Subaru said as he tried to keep himself together. Beatrice looked at him annoyed yet deep down she felt comfortable with this, feeling safe and happy. Petra, Frederica, Reinhard, and Wilhelm all four smiled as they saw this, with the three from Subaru's world knowing how close Beatrice and Subaru are while Reinhard was happy that his friend had someone to rely on, someone better than him. There was a moment of silence before Subaru got up with Beatrice saying:

"Now then, explain the situation."

"Right. So um...how do I explain this without confusing you?Let's just say that we are in a different world that is the same as our own...like a parallel universe."

"Parallel...universe? What nonsense are you babbling now, I suppose?!" Beatrice exclaimed as she was starting to lose her, her cheeks puffing up as she huffed.

"I know it is nonsense, but this is the best way to explain things, Beako."

"Well...at least tell me what we are facing, I suppose." Beatrice said as she could see that something was causing pain to her contractor. Subaru took note of what Beatrice had asked, causing him to be silent for a bit. He looked at Reinhard and the others for the briefest of moments before looking back at his contracted spirit.

"We are dealing with two powerful warriors. Halibel, the Admirer of Kararagi. And Cecilus Segmut, the Blue Lightning of Vollachia."

"Hmph. Seems like my stubborn contractor is backed into a corner, I suppose. What would you do without me?" Beatrice said after she sighed, seeing that the situation was much more dire than she expected. Subaru couldn't help but chuckle a little before his small smile faded away.

"That is not all, Beako. There is also their leader, The Purge King."

"The Purge King? Never heard of a name like that, in fact."

"Y-Yeah, it is a name unique to here since...well my counterpart is that, the Purge King." Subaru said reluctantly, something that Beatrice instantly noticed.

"Wh-What do you mean by your counterpart?"

"I know it's hard to believe but...in this world Beako...I became a tyrant. My counterpart...he did some horrible things...he is just the worst..." Subaru spoke with his voice sounding defeated, broken to which Beatrice could not stand. She hugged him in hopes of comforting her foolish contractor to which he appreciated and found comfort in. The two hugged for a bit before Beatrice really thought deeply on what Subaru had said, understanding that something must've gone horribly wrong for a version of her contractor to have gone the wrong path. Although it is painful thinking of this, she knows that her contractor was suffering much worse than this one.

"Alright then, what do you propose we do, I suppose?"

"Well...we are going to take down that bastard, the Purge King." Subaru said after having paused for a moment, allowing him time to regain his confidence. Beatrice took note of this and was quickly given the details of the plan. Upon hearing that Petra would be used as a way to distract the Purge King, she slapped Subaru in the face.

"Dumbest plan yet, I suppose."

"It isn't supposed to be smart. My counterpart is expecting smart."

"Regardless, that is a risk but you are lucky that I'm here, in fact. We can use her to teleport anywhere with my yin magic." Beatrice said as she was confident that her contribution will lead them to success. Subaru was caught off guard by this yet he nodded as he knows that now he has a better chance with Beatrice involved. As he got up, Frederica approached Subaru as she thought of a suggestion.

"Why not bring Garf into this? I believe this world's Garf would be more than capable of providing some assistance."

"I...I don't know. It was hard the first time to get him to listen to me in our own world." Subaru said with some doubt in his voice, knowing that it would be even harder to get the demi human boy to join them in this world. Frederica and the others noticed this, to which the big maid responded to the boy's concerns by saying:

"I can persuade him. I'm still his sister regardless of being from different worlds."

"True but how do we get to the Sanctuary from here? It would take a long time and we don't want to give The Purge King too much time to prepare." Subaru brought up some valid points since the group agreed that they can't waste anymore time. There was silence for a moment before Reinhard stepped in to speak.

"I could possibly get the big maid to the Sanctuary using my Divine Protection of Wind Evasion. That and combined with my Divine Protection of the Cloud, I should be able to get us there in no time." As Reinhard spoke of this, Wilhelm and Subaru both nodded at this since Wilhelm knows this could work while Subaru trusts Reinhard's judgement. Frederica on the other hand is hesitant since she doesn't want others to know of the Sanctuary yet considering that Ram and her counterpart are in danger, she knows that they need her brother's help. As she nods with hesitation, Subaru starts retaking the attention by saying:

"We should start with the plan but Rein, Frederica, we need you two to get here as fast as you two can. We will do our best to hold out but you two are important to beating the Purge King."

"Don't worry Subaru, we will be back in time." Reinhard said as he swore to his friend, seeing that he is important to the plan. Subaru nodded at him before the group watched as Reinhard took Frederica towards the Sanctuary. She guided him in every step of the way as they moved from the edge of Kararagi towards the barrier of the Sanctuary within minutes. As they were making their way towards the Sanctuary, Reinhard asked in a respectful manner:

"Do you believe your brother will be convinced?"

"If I'm not mistaken, he will be quite stubborn but the moment he learns of Ram and...well the other me, then he will join us." Frederica said as she recalled what Otto, Subaru, and even Garfiel had said regarding the events that lead to Garfiel overcoming his fear of the outside world. Reinhard had taken note of what Frederica had said.

"Understood."

The pair eventually reached the barrier of the Sanctuary, with Frederica somewhat hesitant since she hasn't seen the place in a while. Reinhard could sense the barrier yet he didn't think much about it. The two entered with a sense of calmness as Frederica assured the Master Swordsman that there wasn't anybody a threat to them. Reinhard believed the blonde maid just as his guard went down, trusting that he won't be in any fights until they return to help Subaru. The two walked around for a bit yet during their walk, the pair noticed that the forest was oddly quiet. Reinhard looked at Frederica as she was looking a bit worried.

"Is everything okay, Frederica-san?"

"...yes..." Frederica hesitated to answer to which Rein noticed. Because of this hesitation, Reinhard prepared himself for a possible fight. The two continued to walk for a bit until they arrived at the village with the two noticing that something's not right. Without hesitation Frederica started to run towards the village with a worried look. Reinhard followed as he figured that something happened to the village yet he isn't sure what for now. As they arrived at the center of the village, the handsome red knight turned towards the blonde maid to ask her:

"Are you alright?"

"...It can't be..."

"...Frederica-san?"

"..." Frederica fell on her knees as she saw this, feeling compleknewen as she knew what had happened here. She knows the fate that Subaru had prevented in their world happened in this world. Reinhard wasn't sure what happened, yet he knew that Frederica was distressed. He placed his hand on her shoulder in hopes of comforting the maid, to which she appreciated. She got up slowly as she wiped away some of the tears before saying to the Sword Saint:

"Pardon me for that...it's just...the Great Rabbit came here and..."

"...I'm sorry, Frederica-san." Reinhard said as he started to have negative thoughts towards himself. He feels like a failure for not having done enough to save the people of the Sanctuary. As both Frederica and Reinhard were thinking about this, Reinhard's senses quickly picked up something heading towards him and Frederica. This prompted him to quickly grab the maid and to jump high enough to avoid the explosion underneath their feet. This helped snap Frederica out of the sadness she was experiencing since she felt that the attack thrown towards them was familiar. Once Reinhard landed on his feet, he set Frederica down before looking around to see where the attack came from. While he looked around, the two eventually heard someone yell at them with pure rage and pain:

"GET DA FUCK OUTTA HERE!"

"...wait...is that...?" Frederica was slowly realizing who was speaking to them, causing some glimmer of hope to appear in her eyes while Reinhard prepared for a fight. The two waited until a young man with torn up clothes and blonde hair appeared in front of them after having jumped from a long distance to land near them. As the young man landed, he looked at the pair with anger in his eyes as he was trying to control himself from transforming.

"I SAID GET TH'FUCK OUTTA HERE!"

"Garf..." Frederica spoke with pain in her voice as she knows that this version of Garfiel is more broken than ever. Although she should be happy that he is still alive in this world, the fact that he is the only one in the village can only mean that the Great Rabbit killed everyone, leaving Garfiel to his own hellish torment. Garfiel was about to attack but for a moment, his mind was able to calm down long enough for him to recognize Frederica. Seeing his sister caused him to pause for a moment as he never thought that she would ever return to the Sanctuary.

"...sis?"

"Yes Garf...it's me, your big sister."

Garfiel's heart was hurting for two reasons, the first being that he has someone he hasn't failed yet and the second reason is that his sister had returned far too late. He wanted to shout with anger towards her yet he noticed the powerful aura coming from the person her sister had brought to the Sanctuary.

"Who da fuck's he?"

"From the line of Master swordsman, Reinhard van Astrea."

"Master swordsman? Yer th'Sword Saint!" Garfiel's mind had many thoughts in mind but the first was wanting to test his strength against the Sword Saint. He pointed his finger at the Sword Saint while saying to him:

"Fight my amazin' self, Sword Saint!"

"I don't think that is—" Reinhard tried to avoid fighting Frederica's brother yet he interrupted him.

"No! You will fight my amazin' self!" As Garfiel said this, he charged at the Sword Saint with everything he had, wanting to prove that he is the strongest. Reinhard knew that this was something unavoidable, causing him to wait until the right moment before blocking Garfiel's attack with his second sword he had with him. As he blocked the attack, he easily pushed Garfiel away, sending the young man flying into a building with enough speed to crash into it. As this happened, the Sword Saint started to apologize since this wasn't the otcome he wanted.

"There is no need to apologize. This is something my brother wanted." Frederica said as she started to walk towards the building Garfiel is in, knowing that she needs to help her brother. Reinhard also followed as the two went to see Garfiel slowly getting up, feeling completely incompetent. Frederica goes to tend his wounds yet he didn't want her help as he knew that a failure like him didn't deserve help.

"Don't be like that, Garf." Frederica spoke with a stern voice yet her brother didn't care.

(Garfiel's Past Theme song plays)

"Why are ya helpin' me? I failed them all! I failed the villagers. I failed the old hag..." Garfiel spoke as he just looked down, not being able to look at his sister.

"I-I'm sure you did your best."

"Not good enough, Sword Saint...those fuckin' rabbits...they...they..." Before Garfiel could even say the horrible events that happened in the Sanctuary, Reinhard set his hand on the young man's shoulder. Garfiel didn't look up but he could tell that it was Reinhard being the one trying to provide some comfort. Frederica wanted to help comfort this Garfiel, seeing that he is holding an enormous amount of guilt yet she knew that Petra, Subaru, Beatrice, and the others were counting on her and Reinhard to get Garfiel out of the Sanctuary and into Pandemonium.

"Garf...I know that we just got reunited but...Ram is in trouble."

"...Ram...?" Garfiel said as he started to think about the girl he likes. He did thought about how he didn't deserve to see her since he failed the Sanctuary yet that change once he heard Frederica say:

"Yes, she needs our help. She is being held hostage by the Purge King."

"The Purge King...th't fucker...!" Garfiel's determination was slowly building up again, seeing that he is needed by his sister. He slowly got up as he looked around the village, still recalling the screams he heard as he did everything he could to save the people. He closed his eyes as he spoke to Reinhard and Frederica:

"The old hags, they tried everythin' but they fell...My a-amazin' self won't let their sacrifice be in vain. If I'm gonna do somethin' t'make up for th's, it's t'save Ram's life." Garfiel opened his eyes as he knew that they needed to start to leave. "Let's go and save Ram."

(End of song)

Present Day:

Garfiel was running around the halls of the Pleiades base, his mind focused on saving Ram no matter what. After having lost the Sanctuary to the great rabbit, the only two things he has left are Ram and Frederica. He continues to run around for a bit before noticing a couple of the Purge King's mercenaries standing in his way.

Without any hesitation he started to beat on them, blocking their attacks with his two shields. As he was beating the mercenaries down without hesitation, the screams of every citizen of the Sanctuary played on his mind. Each scream enraged him, reminding just how powerless he was to save them.

("Survive Young Garf...survive my grandson...")

'...I won't let yer death be in vain, old hag...'

Garfiel managed to push away the thoughts of those he failed to save, focusing on saving Ram. As he got his mindset back on track, he quickly took down the remaining mercenaries fighting him before continuing to make his way towards the Purge King's office.

Having been informed by his sister, he knows where Ram's location is. As he moved onto the next hallway, he noticed that a group was being surrounded by mercenaries.

At first he was going to leave them be, since they are not his concern, until he noticed a little girl in the same maid outfit as his sister making him think that she is probably someone important to his sister. Just as he was going to go and help the group, he noticed his sister joining them and helping them push back the mercenaries.

'Hm. Aight. Ya got th's sis.'

The Shield of Sanctuary turned around and was about to leave until he heard someone familiar speak to him.

"Garf?"

"Huh?"

The young man turned towards the voice and was caught off guard when he saw that it was his sister yet she looked different. She looked broken, sad, and completely consumed by fear.

"Wh-What's da meanin' of th's...?"

"Oh Garf..."

Frederica of this world charged towards the boy and hugged him, causing him to be still since he didn't know how to respond to this sudden reunion. He looked at the Frederica that was hugging him for a moment before turning towards the group far off in the hallway to see that the little girl in maid clothing was hugging the Frederica he talked to in the Sanctuary. Before he could question anything, he recalled something odd his sister had said to him prior to having split up:

("Garf, one more thing. Find the me that is trapped here.")

("Eh? What're ya talkin' about?")

'So...there is more goin' on then...well, I trust ya, sis.'

Garfiel may not understand it all but he knows that his sister is someone worth trusting, despite how weird this moment is. He returned the hug before hearing the Frederica he is hugging ask him,

"What are you doing here, Garf?"

"I'm here ta save Ram. She needs my amazin' self's help."

"Ram? But that can't be...she was dead right after Rem-san died."

"Wait...Rem's dead?! What happened?! Did Roswaal—?!"

"Don't badmouth Roswaal-sama, he didn't do anything. Rem-san died by a Mabeast user."

Garfiel was silent for a moment, surprised by the news yet his determination to save Ram had increased. Knowing now that Ram needs someone to help her, he wants to get to her. He turned towards the group as he noticed the Frederica he talked in the Sanctuary with her group approaching him and the Frederica he was hugging. She turned and the two Fredericas met eyes with the two surprised.

"What's going on?" The Frederica of this world spoke with a confused tone of voice. Before a response could be given, she looked at the group and noticed Subaru was among them. This fueled her with anger and fear, hating the view of Natsuki Subaru yet her hatred was stopped when she noticed that Beatrice was there, holding the boy's hand.

"B-Beatrice-sama..."

"Hmph. Well I can see that you are surprised to see me, I suppose..." Beatrice said with a slightly hesitant tone since she can tell that the reason Frederica of this world is reacting to seeing her is because she is dead in this world.

Frederica of this world looked at the group again, more towards Natsuki Subaru to see that he is not like the Purge King. The two may share the same face but the way they present themselves is different. Garfiel looked at Subaru as well and somehow he can tell that this one is different from the one he had encountered earlier. Before anything could be said, they all felt the Pleiades base to shake violently.

"Seems like Rein is having quite the fight." Subaru said as he knows that they can't waste anymore time in trying to save Ram's life now. The boy turned towards his world's Frederica to tell her:

"Get Petra and your counterpart out of here. Beatrice, Garfiel, and I will go rescue Ram."

"Are you sure, Subaru-sama? We could help you out."

"I know but I need you all safe." Subaru said in a confident tone, knowing that Frederica and Petra did their part of the plan. Petra wanted to stay and help yet she realized that there isn't much she can do. Frederica looked at her counterpart to see what she thought about this.

The Frederica of this world looked down for a moment as she knew that she isn't in condition to fight, after the fear that the Purge King had put into her really messed up her mindset. She turned towards Garfiel and gave him another hug before saying:

"Just please be careful Garf...I don't want to lose you..."

"Don't ya worry sis, my amazin' self'll survive this!"

Garfiel says this with a thumbs up, Frederica couldn't help but smile as she can see her brother smile. The two hugged once again before both Fredericas and Petra ran one direction while Subaru and Garfiel went towards another direction with Subaru carrying Beatrice. While the two boys were running, Garfiel looked at Subaru for a moment before looking forward.

"What's yer story?"

"Huh?"

"Why're ya here? What's yer reason?" Garfiel asked in a slightly aggressive tone, not trusting Subaru until he heard his motives. Subaru took note of what he was being asked, causing him to think carefully since he knows the answer he gives will affect the way Garfiel will treat him.

"You said you met the Purge King, right?"

"Yea, he's a fuckin' coward."

"He sure is. I'm here to save my friend, Ram, and to kick my counterpart's ass! After everything he had done...he doesn't deserve mercy."

"Damn right!"

Garfiel liked the response he got, feeling that the boy was being honest with him. Beatrice looked at Subaru for a moment before just looking at his back side as she was being carried. She wasn't surprised by the answer her contractor gave though what worries her is how her counterpart died. After a few minutes, the two boys and the little loli spirit arrived at the door of the Purge King's office. Garfiel was about to break the door down until he felt that Subaru grabbed his arm.

"Hold on Garfiel, something is up."

"What do ya mean?"

"The Purge King knows that we would be after Ram so I doubt he left his office unguarded."

"Ha! Like anything can beat my amazin' self!" Garfiel said this without thinking, wanting to boost himself with confidence as he went to break the door down. As he broke the door down, the group looked around to see if there was anything in the office that could be a threat to them. As they looked around, the trio didn't see anything that could be threatening which caused Garfiel to go into the office and start breaking things in search of something that'll get him to Ram.

"Ram. Ram! Where are you?"

Garfiel continued to break things until he saw Subaru walk towards a door he didn't see and start opening it. Garfiel looked annoyed at the boy before following him and his contracted spirit into the room where Ram was held. As the three were in the dark room, Ram slowly looked up as she was hearing the mess that was happening outside the room she was in. As she did this, Garfiel was shocked to see Ram in such a state, prompting him to quickly head towards her.

"Ram!"

"G...G-Garf...?"

"Yes Ram, it's me!"

Garfiel manages to break free the chains holding her. As he does this, he hugs her with a tear streaming down his cheek as he was not only relieved that Ram was okay but the fact that he still has her in his life. Ram herself wanted to break down and cry since she has someone from her childhood still alive. She returned the hug as she was finally happy to see someone. While the two hugged, Ram looked up to see Beatrice standing which surprised her completely.

"B-Beatrice-sama? I-I thought..."

"...that I was dead? I've been hearing that a lot, I suppose." Beatrice spoke with her worries starting to increase. Seeing that a lot of people are mentioning her counterpart's status and the way Subaru even said it...this all made her more concerned than she thought she would be.

As Ram had noticed the little loli spirit, she did also notice that she was holding someone's hand. She looked up and was filled with complete rage the second she saw Natsuki Subaru's face. She quickly broke the hug with Garfiel and started to make her way towards Natsuki Subaru's directions, her hands ready to choke the life out of him yet Beatrice stood in front of Subaru while saying:

"I wouldn't do that if I were you, in fact."

"Not this again...please Beatrice-sama, move out of the way." Ram said as she was having déjà vu of the situation. Subaru was also having déjà vu of the situation since it was one of the few loops he was slothful. He patted Beatrice's head before approaching Ram, worrying his contracted spirit. Garfiel was also a bit worried since he knows that Ram is going to kill the boy yet Subaru shook his head, telling him to back off. After doing this he turned towards Ram with a serious facial expression, knowing that she was preparing to attack him.

(Chain of memories plays)

He took a deep breath for a moment before finally saying to the pink haired oni:

"I know you hate me, Ram. What happened to Rem—"

"Don't you fucking dare talk about sissy!" Ram shouted as this was the trigger that caused her to attack. She tried to go for the neck yet Subaru was able to avoid her by moving out of the way. As he moved, he continued to speak in a serious voice:

"Rem is not only a good person but she cared for you deeped she wanted you to be happy."

"Shut up!"

Ram tried to attack the boy once again only to miss since Subaru had anticipated the way the pink haired oni was going for. As he once again dodge the attack, he continued speaking:

"Rem loves you, Ram. She not only cared so deeply for you but put you on a pedestal of sorts.. At one point she even viewed herself as your replacement."

"Shut your fucking mouth! You don't know me! You don't know my fucking sister, you fucking bastard!"

"You can kill me, Ram. You can 'avenge' your sister but after that, what then? Will you really be satisfied?"

"Yes, I fucking will you motherfucker...I'll enjoy choking you to death!"

Ram approached Subaru and managed to get her hands on his neck, preparing to cut his ability to breath yet something happened. Garfiel grabbed her from her backside while trying to calm her down.

"Ram! Calm down! He isn't the Purge King."

"Stand back, Garf. He needs to die."

"No! You won't hurt Betty's Subaru, in fact!" The drilled haired loli said as she created a few purple icicles around the pink haired oni, showing that she won't hesitate to protect her contractor. Ram looked around to see that her life was in danger with Beatrice's attack preparing to be fired towards her. This caused her to look at Beatrice with a slightly angered facial expression.

"Why are you such a stubborn spirit? He is the enemy! He got Rem killed!"

"I'm not the fucking Purge King. My name is Natsuki Subaru but I'm not a part of this world. The one you want dead is out there, running around and I want to take him down. I want him to suffer for all the pain he caused...hell he deserves to suffer for killing Beako!"

Beatrice was taken for a mental loop as her killer was revealed. She learned now that she was killed by a version of her own contractor. This caused her to start crying since this is something she just doesn't know how to react to. Ram noticed this and wanted to shout at Subaru for making Beatrice cry only to see that he is doing his very best to hold back the tears.

"Do you know how it feels to have the memories of that bastard? Do you know how I fucking feel seeing my own counterpart kill Beako, my contracted spirit, the little girl I made a promise to stay with?...I fucking doubt it." Subaru spoke with all the pain in his voice, having not only the Purge King's memories but also the Sin Archbishop of Pride's memories. The two versions of him had done so many horrible things which he has to live with.

Ram stopped trying to kill the boy as what he said to her and the way he spoke finally got to her. She looked at the boy's eyes and saw that they are filled with life compared to the Purge King's yet they share the same pain in their eyes. She looked down with a bit of shame yet she still wanted vengeance, she still wanted the Purge King dead.

"He is responsible for killing my sister..."

"He is, because he chose to run compared to what I did, save her life and do my best to keep you all safe."

"...wait...what are—"

"In my world Ram, Rem is still alive. She is still breathing."

Ram's eyes were starting to be filled with tears, knowing that in a different world her sister survived. This caused her to fall on her knees, finally breaking down. Garfiel hugged Ram since he understood her pain while Subaru turned towards Beatrice to hug her since she was still crying.

The room was silent for a moment as Ram and Beatrice were both crying for a bit before the two were able to stop.

(Song ends.)

Though the second they stopped, the four of them heard some movement outside of the room. Garfiel and Subaru both looked at each other before the pair quickly made their way out into the office to see a wolf man.

"Who are ya?"

"Hm. The name is Halibel. Nice to meet ya."

"Gr. Why're ya here?"

"To stop you all. I was tempted to but I saw that y'all needed a moment, so I let ya."

"Hmph. So what? We should thank ya?!" Garfiel continued to talk with a bit of anger in his voice. Subaru looked at Halibel and started to think to himself. On previous loops, Halibel could've killed him so many times yet he didn't for some reason. This gave him an idea though one that is risky on its own.

"Halibel, can I ask for a favor?"

"Sure thing Su-san."

"Can you let us get Ram out of here? She doesn't deserve to be locked up in that room." Subaru said this in hopes of gaining the wolf man's sympathy. Halibel took a moment to think on what he was asked before looking at Subaru to respond to what the boy had asked him.

"I would but I need to make it look like you all are escaping on your own. So I suppose fightin' one of ya would make it possible to let you get th't girl away."

Subaru and Garfiel took note of what the wolf man had said, prompting Garfiel to step up to fight Halibel. This allowed Subaru to quickly go into the room to get Ram and Beatrice to leave the room. As they were leaving the room and making their way towards the exit of the office, Subaru looked at Halibel to ask him:

"Why are you doing this? Why are you helping me?" The boy had asked since this was something he wanted to know.

"Hm...let's just say that I'm feeling nice today."

"That's n...okay..." Subaru said as he still didn't understand why he is still helping them yet he couldn't waste anymore time. Subaru gets Beatrice and Ram out of there while Garfiel stayed behind, preparing to fight.

"Ya said yer name's Halibel, right?"

"Correct." Halibel said in a calm manner.

"So, R'ya happen t'be the Admirer of Kararagi?" Garfiel questioned since he wanted to confirm this.

"Hm. Of course, that is what I'm known for." Halibel said with a friendly manner and with a smile. With this confirmation, Garfiel smiled since he gets to fight against another one of four powerful warriors. He smashed his shields together with confidence while saying:

" 'Kay then, the name is Garfiel Tinsel, the Shield of the Sanctuary!"

Halibel smiled as he heard this, curious to know the strength of the boy. He quickly created clones of himself before charging at the young man, wanting to go all out to test the demi human.

While their fight had started, Subaru was trying his best to get Ram and Beatrice outside of the base. While he was moving as fast as he can, the trio eventually heard someone speak to them:

"Where do you think you are going with her?"

"...shit." Subaru whispered under his breath since he wasn't planning to deal with his counterpart, especially now with Ram in her state and with Beatrice around. The three turned around to see the Purge King, noticing that he is holding a knife and his eyes look even more insane than before.

"Where are you going with my last colors? You fucking prick."
