Suddenly, Orpheus looked at Enkidu, who was tilting his head, and his eyes lit up slightly.

However, the Dragon Goddess had not yet had a chance to voice her bold idea.

A sudden change occurred.

The two Skywing creatures standing in the pit simultaneously raised their eyes.

Without warning, countless layers of barriers were instantly erected around the huge pit that was originally a school.

Half of it is physics, and the other half is the sealing off of space.

Within and outside the barrier, countless warriors of various appearances appeared alongside it.

"This is……"

Standing outside the barrier, Hyoudou Issei looked in astonishment at the different races that suddenly appeared around him.

Angels, fallen angels, demons.

All three factions from that time are now present here.

Behind the boy, Gabriel, who had escaped the explosion by teleporting the group, sighed softly.

Has the situation finally escalated to this point...?

Chapter 382 Encirclement

"This is……"

Startled, he fell to the ground, exclaiming as he pointed dramatically at the scene before him.

What was once a school campus has now become a huge meteorite crater, still steaming, covered by layers of barriers.

Around the barrier, at least several thousand groups were scattered in the sky, each fully armed and on guard against the situation inside the barrier.

Hyoudou Issei was completely confused about what had just happened.

Fortunately, not everyone reacts as slowly as he does.

"...Thank you very much, Lord Gabriel."

At Hyoudou Issei's place, Rias Gremory, as a demon, bowed sincerely to Gabriel.

After all, if Gabriel hadn't forcibly moved them, they might have already become part of the dust still lingering in that barrier.

"No, it was just a small favor."

With a gentle and holy smile, Gabriel responded in a voice as soft as a breeze.

"oh oh!"

Hyoudou Issei, standing to the side, stared wide-eyed.

Is this truly an angel? Her smile alone is enough to heal hearts.

Not to mention the enormous valley on its chest.

However, before he could even feast his eyes, he was knocked to the ground by the little cat from Tacheng.

"...Excuse me for being so bold, but may I ask about the current situation?"

Ignoring the embarrassing family members behind her, Rias spoke cautiously.

Angels are a race that protects order, but this does not equate to kindness.

If anyone breaks the rules, the angels will never act in a way that makes them seem 'kind'.

While kind angels do exist, and arguably make up a significant proportion of them, Gabriel, as one of the four Seraphim, should have to consider the interests of the angels themselves.

The three factions have never truly ceased hostilities; they have merely exercised tacit self-restraint to minimize the scale of the conflict.

Even if this seraph girl herself is truly kind, she would never take the initiative to save these potential future enemies.

Unless someone finds a completely safe place to stay for thousands of years, no one who can live that long is truly naive and innocent.

Considering the current situation...

"Does this mean the three factions have cooperated?"

Rias slightly widened her eyes and muttered her speculation to herself.

This should have been impossible, given that the conflict between the three parties has lasted for thousands of years.

Even if the higher-ups have the desire, it's not so easy to push it to the point of military cooperation.

At most, it's just a formal ceasefire.

However, the current situation is special.

After all, in addition to the other two opponents, there is a more conspicuous yet mysterious force posing a threat to the three factions.

"Oh, you think very quickly, little girl."

Before Gabriel could answer, a cheerful voice came from behind.

"you are……"

Rias looked over in surprise.

But before she could speak, the boy's voice interrupted.

"Uncle!"

Hyoudou Issei pointed at the middle-aged man in front of him with surprise.

Although he had changed his clothes to a leather jacket that matched his personal style, his black and gold hair was still quite distinctive.

The other person was the same man he had spoken to several times before.

"How did you end up here? No, more than this..."

Hyoudou Issei stared blankly, his mouth agape.

But his trembling finger pointed behind the man.

Those six pairs of black wings were incredibly conspicuous.

"Oh, what a rare opportunity! Let me introduce myself. I am Azazel, and I'd like to call myself the leader of the fallen angels. Please take care of me in the future!"

"Azazel...the governor of the fallen angels?"

Ignoring the demons' astonishment, Azazel looked at the barrier beside him.

"Let's talk about the things that need explaining later, after all, there are more important things to do right now."

Shrugging, Azazel spoke with a smile.

"how?"

"They are a very troublesome enemy. If your plan is to use these people to overwhelm them with numbers, then you are being a bit delusional."

Hyoudou Issei opened his eyes wide again and looked at Azazel's side.

Although his armor was damaged in many places and he looked disheveled, the young White Dragon Emperor, who had not suffered any major injuries overall, had appeared at some point.

"As for 'quality'... although I don't really want to admit it, it's impossible for me to take them down by myself alone... The task you gave me also failed, and I couldn't save Kokabil's life."

"...Really? You've worked hard."

Azazel stroked the beard on his chin.

"But don't worry, we're not the only ones here... Well, there's no point in saying more here. Anyway, let's go check it out first. It's kind of those two girls to have been offline for so long because of us."

Before he could finish speaking, the governor of the fallen angels had already spread his twelve wings and flew towards the interior of the barrier.

Rias and the others exchanged glances, nodded to each other, and followed.

After all, this is their territory.

The spell of the barrier seemed to have been equipped with a recognition system, and the demons easily penetrated at least ten layers of the barrier to enter.

Here, they also learned the reason why the two Skywing creatures had 'disconnected'.

Two young girls dressed in white robes are confronting two men.

One had six pairs of white wings like Gabriel's, and his body radiated a holy light, while the other, dressed in magnificent armor, had bright red hair, and ominous and destructive energy constantly surged around him.

Archangel Michael and Demon King Sazex.

Faced with these two entities, there are probably not many people who would dare to make any rash moves.

After they entered, the fallen angel governor Azazel joined them.

The leaders of the three factions gathered here.

"So, the current situation is quite clear."

Although he was the last to arrive, the Fallen Angel Governor shrugged arrogantly and spoke first.

"You are no match for the three of us. You have neither the advantage in quality nor the advantage in numbers. Within this area, you can't easily use your spatial abilities, right? If you surrender now, you'll get some good treatment, you know?"

The two Skywing girls remained silent, but their eyes flickered with an eerie light.

"Really... Aren't you going to say anything? Although there seems to be a saying among humans that 'you have the right to remain silent,' I'm sorry, you don't have that right here."

He twisted his neck, and the Fallen Angel Governor's eyes sharpened.

"To be honest, we don't want to cause any conflict at this time, but what you've done this time seems a bit too much. We just want you to explain a little... If you don't speak, we'll have to force your mouths open."

Assasser was not lying.

In fact, no one wants to push this still mysterious race too far, nor does anyone want to wage a full-scale war against them.

Or rather, none of the three parties want to start a war.

But in the current situation, Kokabil, who arbitrarily invaded the territory of the higher-ranking demons in the Demon King's family, and who was also considered a member of the Fallen Angels and a cadre, was killed, disrupting order while wielding the Church's holy sword.

Although they knew that this race was making moves behind the scenes, they did not expect that these moves would eventually become so significant.

This is not something to be tolerated silently.

The two Skywing girls remained silent.

Azazel and the others frowned.

...They really don't want to escalate the situation to the point where force is needed unless absolutely necessary.
