After teaching that pretty boy a lesson, Rui was in high spirits. Duanmu Huai then sent her home. Just as he was about to head back himself, his phone suddenly rang. He picked it up, glanced at the screen, and answered.
"Hello? Mary? What's up?"
"Mr. Duanmu, are you coming back?"
"More or less. I'm planning to head back now... Is something wrong?"
"Um... well, two guests have arrived at the Church..."
"The Church? Guests?"
At that, Duanmu Huai frowned. The Church of the Inquisition was more like a large military fortress than a place meant to receive guests. In fact, ordinary people could not even reach the Inquisition's Church. But since they were guests... Well, he would see what was going on when he got back.
When Duanmu Huai arrived at the entrance to the Inquisition's Church, he saw Mary standing there, staring helplessly inside.
"What's going on?"
"It's already lucky that they haven't started fighting."
"???"
Hearing Mary's answer, Duanmu Huai looked puzzled. He entered the Church, and then he understood what Mary meant.
Inside the Church, three figures were facing one another. Rias stood in the middle, arms folded across her chest, glaring at the other two with an intimidating expression. Standing in front of her were two young women. One wore a nun's robe and a head covering. Duanmu Huai did not recognize her.
As for the other one... he had met her once before.
"How did you end up here?"
"Ah, it really is Mr. Warrior!"
Hearing Duanmu Huai's voice, the other girl who had been facing Rias excitedly turned around and waved at him.
"Long time no see, Mr. Warrior!"
"I remember you're from the Angel faction..."
"I'm Shito Irina. You still remember me, Mr. Warrior."
Strictly speaking, Duanmu Huai did not remember everyone
