Rias explained how Yuuto Kiba's hatred of the church began with a failed Holy Sword training program, and worried that news of a Holy Sword candidate might revive his pain. The next day, Genoa and Irina Shido met with Rias and Chen Fan to report that Fallen Angels had stolen three Holy Swords and warn the Demons against getting involved.
