Chapter 8
The Action of A Fallen Angel!
"But I made an appointment with her, Buchou!"
The room that seemed dimly lit, the atmosphere that felt quiet, which was only filled by three people, felt so oppressive and tense. It seems that the three people are Rias, Issei and Ryuma who happened to be visiting the Occult Research Club Building, to accompany Issei to say something to Rias.
"No! I can't let you get close to her! You know, it's very dangerous!" Rias snapped firmly, resolutely rejecting Issei's request because she knew that the young man's request would only bring disaster in the future.
"Listen, Issei! A devil like yourself will only bring disaster to all of us! A holy person will not bring us any good at all, you should know that. You are not a human being anymore!" Rias continued with his voice that sounded cold and full of threats, warning Issei again that he was different from the previous one, which, now he was a Devil, who could not do anything arbitrarily like when he was an ordinary human.
From the beginning, Ryuma just kept silent without saying a word, because indeed he couldn't help Issei in the slightest, what Rias said was indeed true, a Devil should not violate his limits, moreover, the person Issei wanted to meet was one of the Devil's greatest enemies, from the Church Faction, who could eliminate Devils easily with their holy power.
"You will perish exceedingly painfully, and your soul will be cast into the void forever and ever... You won't be able to feel what you would feel if that happened, right?" Rias said, staring intently at Issei, giving the young man a stern warning of the consequences he would have to bear if he did what he had forbidden him.
"You may feel that if this is like coercion... But... This is for your own good. So, please keep that in mind..." Rias continued with her voice starting to soften, then she immediately walked away leaving Issei who was sculpting with his face looking depressed, thinking about what he should do in the future.
He had mixed feelings, between regret, because he could not fulfill his promise to his friend that meant so much, and angry that Rias could not let him see his friend again, he knew that his friend was a figure who might harm him, but, that figure had become his friend, especially since he had promised her to meet again one day.
With his sharp eyes, Ryuma watched Issei's movements that seemed to be thinking hard about what he was going to do, obeying his Buchou orders, or meeting his friend without Rias' knowledge, everything was in Issei's hands, he don't know what choice the young man would choose, which was obvious, it was all beyond his responsibility, it had absolutely nothing to do with him, although, if things would get worse, he would be present to offer help for him.
Inside the Occult Research Club Building, Ryuma is sitting relaxing on a red sofa with Kiba who is also sitting right next to him. In front of him, Issei was talking to Rias about the recent problems against him, especially if it wasn't for his friend, a friend who seemed very precious to him.
"It hurts so much!" Issei sighed in pain as his body was being healed by Akeno, using a small amount of medicine accompanied by the transfer of Devil Energy.
Yesterday, Issei got into trouble, in which he met an Exorcist from the Church while he was on a contract with one of the humans. At first he was so very excited, because after all this time, he got a call for a contract with an ordinary human, but unfortunately, everything went so very unexpectedly by him.
Issei was almost eliminated forever by this figure, however, luckily one of his friends arrived on time and saved his life for the umpteenth time. Ryuma has no idea how the bad incident started, he only knows part of it, but clearly, it will forever remain in Issei's memory, and will serve as a stern warning to the brown-haired young man about the dangers that will always watch him.
"Aerghh!"
The sound of screams filled with pain, echoed throughout the room, when splashes of fresh blood seemed to flow everywhere, the atmosphere of the room felt very tense, as if something bad was happening there.
A young man with brown hair seemed to be lying helplessly on the floor with a pool of fresh blood flowing around him, which was none other than his own blood flowing out of the wound he received on his back. While not far away, there was a white-haired man wearing typical Church clothes, standing with a broad grin at the brown-haired young man.
"You lowly Devil! I will smear your body with your own blood, and then I will chop your body into small pieces of meat!" The man said enthusiastically, accompanied by his laughter that was so terrible, the man, really like a psychopath!
The pain and pain can be felt by the brown-haired young man on his back, when a lot of blood flow begins to flow out of his body. However, even so, he tried to get back on his feet, because he had no intention of being defeated here, at least not before he managed to build a Harem just like his dream had always been.
"You're really crazy!" The brown-haired young man said softly, showing a hesitant smile on his face, then without having any other choice, he immediately ran as hard as he could to approach the figure of the white-haired man.
Quickly, the brown-haired young man threw his fist at the white-haired man, using his left arm which looked amazing, because it was shaped like a red dragon arm, he tried to counterattack the man who had slashed him.
"Slow!" Despise the man sarcastically, just by tilting his body to the side, the attack of the brown-haired young man can be avoided so very easily.
Getting a golden opportunity, the man again slashed his sword towards the brown-haired young man's right leg, which immediately made the young man fall flat again on the cold floor.
"You know... A devil like you would be absolutely nothing before me... You will bow to this sword and this gun." The man said sarcastically, feeling confident that he could defeat the Devil in front of him using his two flagship weapons very easily.
Meanwhile, the brown-haired young man who had received such a wound on his body, could do absolutely nothing but grumble inwardly. How weak he is, how vulnerable he is, he can't even help himself at all at this time, especially if his friends need his help, if he continues like this, then he will be nothing more than a burden to his other friends.
"Damn! I'm so weak! I will be their burden if this continues!"
"It's a pity... This is the end for you! Say goodbye to this miserable world!" The white-haired man said sarcastically as he drew his sword right towards the brown-haired young man's neck.
Wushhh!
However, just before the man's sword beheaded the brown-haired young man, suddenly the man's sword was fended off by a mysterious young man who came out of nowhere. Getting into trouble, makes the man decide to retreat first to analyze the situation, as well as to find out who the figure who has disrupted his plan.
"Sorry... But I won't let you kill my friend..."
The voice was so intimidating, it could be heard in both ears of the white-haired man, even for a moment he shuddered in horror, he could see that there was a young man with black-haired who were now standing in front of him, coupled with the look of his two eyes that looked very sharp, as if giving him a stern warning if he continued this, then he would have consequences that he would never have imagined.
However, he would not allow his honor to be trampled on in such a way by such creatures, let alone a lowly Devil, he would not be able to accept it for all of his lifetime. Although it is likely that the newly arrived Devil has power far above him, he will not retreat and run away from the fight.
"Then... You will come with him to death!!" The white-haired man rebuked angrily and annoyedly, revealing a very wide grin on his face that looked like someone who had lost all his sanity.
Just after the man's words were finished, the atmosphere seemed to change drastically from the previous one, now the atmosphere felt so very cold, even able to make the body of the white-haired man shiver. From the bottom of his heart, he felt a bad feeling if he remained in this place, even so, he did not care about all these bad feelings. He will kill the two lowly Devils, because for him, a lowly being like Devil has absolutely no right to live in this world.
"I'll kill you!" The man cursed angrily, then, he began firing holy bullets through a white pistol he was carrying, shooting at the mysterious young man in front of him blindly.
However, all these sacred bullets could not hit the mysterious man's body at all, all missed because the mysterious young man continued to dodge all the bullets agilely. In fact, none of these bullets scratched his clothes, all of which could have been avoided so very easily by the black-haired young man.
"Damn you!" The white-haired man cursed frantically because he found that he could not attack the mysterious young man at all, the young man's movements were so very fast, he even had difficulty keeping up with his movements.
However, a very unexpected idea, came into the man's head, if he could not hit the young man with his will, then he should force the young man to be hit by his own will. He slowly turned to a brown-haired young man who was kneeling on the floor with his face visibly enduring pain, as the wounds lodged in his body did not stop bleeding freshly.
Dar!
A shot of holy bullets shot directly at a very high speed towards the brown-haired young man, whizzing through the air at an extremely high speed. Because of his severely injured body, coupled with his exhausted manpower, the brown-haired young man couldn't move at all to avoid the bullet, which means, it would only end in one conclusion.
Jleb!
A big smile instantly appeared on the white-haired man's face, as he saw that the mysterious young man who had previously troubled him because of his rapid movements, was now standing before him, with a gunshot wound right in his abdomen and redeeming up to his back. With this, his efforts to kill the mysterious young man would become easier, because basically, the holy bullet would have a very bad impact on the Devil Race, from this very second, their Devil power would become a mere waste.
"Good effort... But, this kind of injury will absolutely not be able to stop me!"
But unexpectedly, the mysterious black-haired young man began to walk slowly approaching the white-haired man, every step taken by the young man, brought extreme fear in the white-haired man. How can it be?! How can a Devil still move after being hit by a sacred bullet, should the power of the Devil be temporarily restrained by the bullet, at least for a while, however, the young man can still move for a second after he is hit by the sacred bullet?! It's really astonishing!
Originally walking slowly, the young man suddenly ran at a high speed, even to the point that he could not be seen by the white-haired man. And a second later, the man felt extreme pain in his chest, it felt like his chest was being hit by something very heavy, even making him unable to breathe for a few moments.
"Ugh!"
Fresh blood flowed out of the white-haired man's mouth, his face looked so very shocked and frightened, cold sweat began to flow profusely throughout his body, his eyes kept moving in all directions, looking for the whereabouts of the mysterious young man's figure. Until then, his eyes widened, his body was immediately made to tremble violently, when a scene he had not expected was now happening right in front of him.
"An Exorcist has indeed been tasked with eliminating other beings who oppose the Church, but I will make an exception for that Devil. I will not say that you are a heretical Exorcist, but, your actions just now have violated Church ethics. You hide in the shadow of a holy being, but it will all end here."
A voice so cold and intimidating, could be heard through both ears of the white-haired man, sending an excruciating sense of fear that penetrated into his trembling soul. The young man before him now, looking so intimidating, his deep red eyes, from within them, implied a serious threat, which would have devastating consequences if he heeded all of his warnings.
"Please! Have mercy on me!"
Accompanied by such great fear, the man could only beg for forgiveness from the young man, because basically, his life was currently hanging in the hands of the young man, he could not do anything else except ask for forgiveness and hope that the he would forgive him.
"I am not allowed to kill mankind, even if it is a human being as depraved as you are. You thought that I was a Devil, right? But I'm a Creature you absolutely can't imagine. This time, I will spare you. Return to the teachings of the Church! And if I meet you like this in the future, then I will teach you a lesson that you will never forget for a lifetime!"
After finishing his words, the mysterious young man threw the white-haired man's body so hard, that it hit the wall and directly smashed the wall in such a way. Then, he slowly turned around and looked at the brown-haired young man who was now kneeling, next to a blonde girl who was wearing church clothes, a girl he could immediately conclude was a nun.
"We're going back, Issei."
Without waiting for Issei's answer, the black-haired young man immediately carried the brown-haired young man's body on his shoulders, then he began to walk slowly towards a large window that had been opened very wide. During that time, Issei struggled to be released, because he could not leave his friend alone with a depraved Exorcist who intended to torture her.
However, the black-haired young man would not let Issei go, because to help the girl, he had disobeyed orders from Rias, the leader of Issei himself. There will be a chance to help the girl, later, at least it will really happen. When that day comes, he will help Issei to help her, because basically, the girl has an holy aura within her soul, a creature like himself will not be able to let an innocent person suffer. Moreover, the figure was a nun who had sincerely devoted herself to the creator, praying sincerely to Him with all her great hopes, an act that he truly hoped could happen again, to him.
