"Really..."

Even with the expected answer, Hyoudou Issei still sighed in disappointment.

"I think you have other issues to worry about, rather than this?"

"Ok?"

Hyoudou Issei tilted his head in confusion.

"Ah, he's a troublesome fellow after all... He's in a more urgent situation than I expected... But this power... How could it be..."

Hyoudou Issei noticed the older man frown.

The next moment───

In the still-unrepaired school, the sound of a huge explosion and the shockwave resounded once again.

Chapter 376 Kokabil

"Isn't Enkidu curious why it takes so long to analyze the system of gods?"

"Ugh?"

Enkidu tilted his head to the side.

"Hmm... I don't really know anything about these things, and I'm not sure about Orpheus's computing power either... although several thousand years is indeed a long time."

Although Enkidu can be considered a long-lived race, due to her experience (dying young), her thought process is closer to that of races with average lifespans.

For her, a thousand years is indeed a very long time.

...But upon closer reflection, it feels like it all passed by very easily.

Orpheus shook his head.

"Several thousand years is not a long time... but given the complexity of that system, it should be possible to fully analyze it in less than a century if one is serious."

"So, you're saying you're being blocked? Because you haven't actually had direct contact with the system?"

"Indeed, I have always deduced the system's structure by working backward from angels, faith, and artifacts. In other words, I have never actually come into contact with the system itself, but that is not the main reason."

Orpheus explained in a calm and languid voice.

"That is a system maintained by faith. Although the principle of its transformation is worth praising, it is precisely because it is connected to the faith of countless living beings that it has countless holes that can be penetrated... This was the case when the God of the Bible was still alive, and it will naturally be even more flawed after the God of the Bible dies. Therefore, it is the same for me whether I come into contact with it or not."

"So, the problem isn't with the system itself?"

Enkidu understood what Orpheus meant and put his hand on his chin to think.

"Could it be some other mechanism left by God in the Bible?"

However, Orpheus shook his head at Enkidu's speculation.

"I don't know."

"Ugh?"

Enkidu was stunned.

"I don't know whether it was a result of God's accidental actions in the Bible or a truly intentional one, but that doesn't matter."

Hearing words spoken with a genuinely indifferent tone, Enkidu gave a slight wry smile.

"Uh...is that so...anyway, there are definitely obstacles."

"Ah."

Orpheus nodded affirmatively.

"The God of the Bible is an entity that acts in accordance with order, and its system is a product of the structure built to maintain that order."

"order……"

"Ah."

The dragon goddess girl nodded again.

"The 'order' that belongs to this world and is established by the world."

……

……

"Ha ha……"

Hyoudou Issei was running wildly towards the school.

In that direction, black smoke and dust were constantly rising into the sky, and a scorching heat was also blowing in.

The energy intensity that Hyoudou Issei could sense there was far greater than that of the Fallen Angel attack several weeks earlier.

It's important to understand that the previous attack by the fallen angels already posed a life-threatening threat to the president and his companions, let alone this even stronger attack from the enemy.

Hyoudou Issei didn't even have time to continue thinking about the old man, and immediately started running towards the school, not daring to slow down for a moment.

"Yicheng!"

However, a familiar, stern voice stopped him.

The boy immediately turned his head to look in the direction from which the sound came.

"President, Chairman, and everyone else?!"

Rias Gremory, another high-ranking demon from the school, Sona Siddy, and other demons were walking quickly towards them.

Is everyone alright?

"Yes, we were lured away by them from the very beginning..."

Rias gritted her teeth.

In fact, they were not 'lured away'.

That practice should be called forced removal.

They offered no resistance and didn't even notice anything unusual.

In the instant they realized what was happening, the previously scattered group of people were simultaneously moved to an open space outside the school.

—If the enemy had set a trap in that location, they would already be dead.

No, or rather, with that one move, the other side could probably kill them outright.

Possessing this level of spatial ability...

Rias Gremory and Sona Sid already knew the answer in their hearts.

However, Rias didn't say it.

My family member has such strong feelings for that race that if I were to casually reveal this information now, it could very well cause the other person to lose control of their emotions.

In this situation, everyone must remain calm and develop a response strategy.

Even if information is to be released, it must be done after it is fully confirmed.

"Is that so... At least nothing's wrong..."

Hyoudou Issei didn't yet understand the meaning behind that spatial ability; he was simply relieved that everyone was safe.

But before he could even catch his breath, he realized something was wrong.

"Wait, club president, where's Akeno-senpai? And... it seems like the student council president is also..."

It was only then that Hyoudou Issei realized he should stay by Rias's side. Himejima Akeno, who was Rias's 'Queen', was nowhere to be seen. Several of the demons under the student council president Sona Shide, including the most important 'Queen', had also gone missing.

Upon hearing Yicheng's question, everyone's expression darkened in unison.

"I don't know. Zhu Nai was supposed to be with me, but after the transfer... it seems none of them were transferred with us. I don't know if they were transferred to different destinations or..."

Rias didn't finish her sentence.

But everyone can roughly imagine what that content is.

Being separated like this is definitely not a good thing, and we have no idea what the other side is planning.

"In short, we are now in a passive position and we must find a way to break the deadlock as soon as possible."

Even the most intellectual-looking Sona Siddi remained calm and spoke first.

"Gathering intelligence is the top priority. Rias has just dispatched familiars to scout the area towards the school, and judging by the time, it should be about the right time..."

Like Rias, she didn't finish her sentence.

However, unlike others, she did not end it voluntarily.

A bat covered in wounds was thrown directly in front of the crowd.

Accompanying this were falling black feathers.

Watch out, buddy, this guy's a bit dangerous for you.

The first thing to react and issue a warning was the divine artifact within Issei Hyoudou's body.

Even without its reminder, Hyoudou Issei could still feel that strong sense of threat.

Although it seems insignificant compared to the previous false angel, it is overwhelmingly powerful against these demons.

—Thanks to the training he received from that false angel, Hyoudou Issei was still able to muster his spirits and prepare for battle.

"Who are you...?"

Rias Gremory also narrowed her eyes.

"Hmph, Gremory and the Siddi family, the Demon King's sisters... this reaction is barely acceptable."

The man standing in the sky, dressed in a black robe, curled the corners of his mouth into a smile.

"Hmm...this magic..."

Rias gritted her teeth.

That immense magical power was almost tangible, pressing directly on the demons.

Even without these, the sheer number of dozens of wings is the best proof of its strength.

A ten-winged fallen angel executive.
