Otherwise, Xenovia wouldn't have had the courage to come and seek help.

"Boom--!"

Just as Arthur was about to unleash his Observation Haki to observe, Rias was preparing to activate her familiar.

An immense surge of Mana suddenly enveloped the entire villa.

Wrong!

It should be the town of Suju in Anhui; the villa was only affected.

0

"This Mana..." Rias's expression immediately turned ugly upon sensing the fluctuation of this Mana.

Xenovia gritted his teeth and said, "Kokabiel!"

"The center of this Mana is at the Kuoh Academy," Arthur suddenly said, slowly putting the Koneko Toujou in his arms down. He walked to the villa's entrance, looked at the azure sky, and said, "This high-profile behavior is meant to attract you all there."

"What exactly does that person want?" Rias stood beside Arthur and asked in a low voice, puzzled.

"Let's go take a look and find out, and we can also solve this problem while we're at it!" Arthur said with a smile, then strode towards the villa's gate.

'Swish--'

At the same time, a dazzling white light appeared on his body.

The pajamas were covered in white light, and in an instant, they transformed into a pure white knight's outfit.

"Knight's uniform, I almost forgot..." Rias was also covered in a layer of white light, and her white nightgown transformed into the uniform of the Kuoh Academy.

She walked over to Arthur, looked him over as he removed his glasses and regained his usual handsome and composed Arthur, and smiled knowingly, "The legendary King Arthur, also a world-renowned King of Knights! This outfit suits you very well."

"Well enough!"

Arthur crushed his non-prescription glasses in his hand and smiled faintly.

Chapter 416 Koneko, Three Minutes to Solve Him

Kuoh Academy was now surrounded by a barrier.

The white barrier, covered with numerous scale-like crystals, was set up by a dozen or so reincarnated female demons.

These demons are all Sona Sitri, their purpose being to trap the Monsters within the academy and prevent humans from discovering the existence of superpowers.

"Cangna, how is the situation?"

When Arthur, Rias, and the other girls including Akeno Himejima arrived at the Kuoh Academy, they immediately spotted Sona Sitri.

Rias walked up to Sona Sitri and said with a serious expression.

"Something's not right. They discovered us, but didn't stop the barrier from opening. It seems they're waiting for someone." Shiki Sona Sitri his arms, his face calm, and spoke with a questioning tone, but without a trace of curiosity.

Rias pinched her chin with two fingers and nodded slightly, agreeing, "After hiding for so many days, it's really strange to suddenly become so high-profile."

"We'll find out once we go in and take a look," Arthur said calmly.

"We meet again! Hello, descendant of a hero!" Upon seeing Arthur, Sona Sitri bowed slightly and greeted him politely before reintroducing himself, "I am Sona Sitri, my real name is Sona Shide, the next head of a pure-blooded demon family."

"Hello, Arthur Pendragon!" Arthur nodded slightly, but neither of them shook hands.

"Rias, it's not too late..." After getting to know Arthur again, Sona Sitri her glasses, gazed at Rias was deep in thought, and calmly said, "While that Fallen Angels executive is still making a move, should we contact your brother?"

Rias smiled slightly, looking thoughtfully at Sona Sitri, and said, "Didn't you also not contact your sister?"

As close friends, both Rias and Sona Sitri know each other very well.

So, upon hearing Rias's words, a hint of amusement finally appeared on Sona Sitri's usually calm and almost cold face.

Just as she was about to say something, Arthur suddenly spoke up, "Open the barrier!"

After saying that, Arthur started walking towards the school gate.

"I heard about the outcome of that game." Gazing at Arthur's retreating figure, a strange light flickered in Sona Sitri purple eyes. "The bizarre sword that instantly destroyed another dimension, a ' Longinus 'Longinus outside the thirteen types... it seems you sought his help."

"Arthur is very strong. He should, no... definitely be able to deal with Kokabiel!" Rias said seriously, then quickly followed.

"..."

Watching Rias jog after him, and the other girls including Akeno Himejima brushing Sona Sitri his glasses again, seemingly lost in thought.

The barrier opened a small gap, and Arthur and his companions crossed the campus avenue. From afar, they could see the chair shaped like a small tower above the playground.

A man exuding an aura of decadence sat atop the throne, his ten wings on his back instantly revealing his identity.

He was a man with long black hair, sharp ears, and bloodshot eyes that exuded a sinister aura. He was none other than the Fallen Angels' leader, the culprit who stole the Holy Sword—"The God's Child Monitor" Kokabiel.

"Oh my god... I've discovered a bunch of stinky devils, and a guy too. Could this be the wonderful harem~"

At that moment, a strange and unpleasant voice drew Rias and the other girls' attention from above, landing on Fried Selzer, who was wielding a golden longsword.

"It's him!" Upon seeing Fried Selzer, a hint of surprise appeared on the usually aloof face of the Koneko Toujou.

"We meet again, you petite devil! You bitch—" Fried Selzer spotted Koneko Toujou, his face lighting up with the delight of meeting a longtime friend. He stuck out his tongue and teased her, then instantly turned cold and said, "This time, I'm going to chop you into pieces!"

As if to echo his own words, Fried Selzer brandished the Golden Sword in his hand, which was not a straight sword, and excitedly said, "With this extraordinary and beautiful little holy sword that has fused the power of four 'Holy Sword Excalibur'!"

"The Holy Sword Excalibur, which is a fusion of four holy swords?"

Fried Selzer's words startled Xenovia, who had followed him. Then, as if remembering something, her beautiful eyes widened, and she roared, "What did you do to Irina?"

"Oh, you mean that girl with the twin tails? She's over there!" Fried Selzer, carrying his "little holy sword," pointed towards the stadium with an honest look on his face.

"Damn it!" Xenovia gritted his teeth and ran towards the stadium.

"Arthur..."

Looking at the "little holy sword" in Fried Selzer's hand, Rias frowned slightly and looked at Arthur beside her, her eyes showing a hint of worry.

Although Arthur pretended not to care in front of her, as a descendant of King Arthur, it was impossible for him to truly be indifferent to the appearance of the "Holy Sword Excalibur" before him.

Just as she expected, Arthur didn't show any fury on his face, but his eyes narrowed slightly as he softly said, "Koneko, take him down in three minutes!"

"OK! I will bring that sword to you, senior." Koneko Toujou stood up, looking coldly at Fried Selzer.

A layer of golden fluorescence had already appeared on his body, and his cool, clear Word of Power echoed across the playground.

"--Fear those who possess wings! The wicked and the powerful alike fear me, with my wings! My wings will bring you curses! The wicked cannot strike me!"

"--All wicked ones, fear my power! Now I will possess the majesty of ten mountains, the strength of a hundred rivers, and the might of a thousand Camels! Mighty me will raise the mark of a fierce Camel!"

"Call out--!".

Chapter 417 The Broken Holy Sword

"Call out--!"

The sacred words of the Word of Power fell, and a sonic boom that ripped through the air exploded in the ears of everyone present.

The small figure of the Koneko Toujou resembled an arrow shot from a bow.

With just one step forward, she arrived in front of Fried Selzer, who had already suffered a loss once and was already in a defensive stance with both hands gripping his sword the instant the Word of Power was activated. Her small fist was covered with a layer of blue and white Mana, as if she wanted to knock him down with one punch, just like before.

"The old tricks won't work on me!" Fried Selzer said with a grin, sticking out his tongue as he watched the fist hurtling towards him.

'Whoosh--'

Koneko Toujou's fist landed on empty air, and he heard a whooshing sound in his ear.

"Aren't you surprised? This is the power of the 'Little Holy Sword'!" Fried Selzer appeared behind Koneko Toujou, his smug laughter barely out of his mouth before Koneko Toujou coldly interrupted him, "Too slow..."

The final note stretched slightly, resounding from beginning to end. 18

Fried Selzer was momentarily stunned, and the figure of Koneko Toujou completely disappeared from his sight.

'Boom!'

"Wow--"

'Click--'

Then, no sound of something breaking through the air was heard.

Fried Selzer's eyes suddenly widened, and he flew backward, spitting out blood.

His figure seemed to have been hit by a truck, turning into a blur and disappearing from the spot.

Where he stood, a petite figure appeared, lifting a foot. The hem of her skirt swayed in the wind, and her legs beneath her safety shorts were faintly visible, with afterimages overlapping in the distance.

The super-fast movement meant that before Koneko Toujou could even appear, the force had already landed on Fried Selzer.

"So strong!"

Rias and Akeno Himejima were both incredibly surprised to see Koneko Toujou display such skill.

The Koneko Toujou today are worlds apart from the Koneko they remember.

The phrase "a day apart feels like three autumns" doesn't even begin to describe it.

It has undergone a complete transformation, both externally and internally.

Koneko Toujou, already possessing exceptional strength, had mastered the Six Powers after several months of tutelage by Arthur, and her strength had long since reached the level of Middle-Class Devil.

Having used the one-time Authority of the "Phoenix" and "Camel" bestowed upon her by Arthur, her strength is definitely no less than Rias's.

That kick nearly killed Fried Selzer.

After all, that was the power of a "Camel," even though the Koneko Toujou didn't use its full Authority.

But the sound of bones breaking was still clearly audible.

"This time, I won't be careless again." Koneko Toujou lowered her raised leg, and her figure disappeared once again as if she had teleported.

"Boom--!"

"Boom--!"

The next moment, a violent tremor shook the playground, but it was gone in an instant.

A huge crater appeared on the ground.

Endless dust and mist rose up.

"Senior, here you go..."

A petite figure, carrying a Golden Sword as tall as a person, emerged from the pit and stood before Arthur.

The aloofness on Koneko Toujou's face had vanished, replaced by a smug smile. He proudly presented the "Little Holy Sword" to Arthur with both hands.

"Two minutes and fifteen seconds, not bad!" Arthur reached out and ruffled Koneko Toujou's shoulder-length silver hair, not holding back his praise.

He then picked up the "Little Holy Sword" that was handed to him, and examined the "Little Holy Sword" that had fused the power of four "Holy Sword Excalibur". Suddenly, Arthur raised his other hand and placed it on the blade of the "Little Holy Sword".

"Whoosh--"

In that instant, the ancient stone disc within Arthur's body replaced the "Steel Power" that was the Authority of the "Warrior," and suddenly shone with a bright light.

'Click--!'

A crisp cracking sound echoed throughout the room.

The sound, like the resounding beat of a gong, shook Rias and the other girls, as well as those below Kokabiel, whose presence had always been subtle but who was actually the main person in charge of the "Holy Sword Project" back then.

Baal Galileo, nearly losing control, roared, "Impossible! The 'Lesser Holy Sword,' which fused with four 'Holy Sword Excalibur,' has been broken? So that's how it is..."

Baal Galileo's tone suddenly paused, and the disbelief on his face instantly turned into excitement and exhilaration. As if he had thought of something, he muttered frantically, "If it's about the balance between the holy and the demonic, and that balance has collapsed, then it makes sense that the 'Little Holy Sword' would break."

"That means... not only the Demon King, but even the gods... sniff!"

Just as Baal Galileo was about to utter something earth-shattering, a light gun suddenly fell from the sky, piercing his body completely and stopping the words that were about to rush to his throat.

Kokabiel, who had been sitting high in the air, was now standing on the tower-shaped chair. His sinister face wore a cruel and approving smile, and his blood-red eyes were enough to send chills down the spine of anyone who met his gaze.

He watched as Baal Galileo gradually dissolved into photons, offering his final words of praise, "Baal, you are excellent. It is precisely because of your excellence that you could think of these things. Remarkable!"

"Kokabiel, as a Fallen Angels officer, why have you come to my territory?"

Seeing that the minor enemies had been eliminated, Rias finally stepped forward and, as the 853rd ruler of the town, spoke with Kokabiel.
