Rias Gremory stood beside Sona Shitori with her arms crossed, her face beaming with undisguised joy.

"Yes, it's been about a few months. Although it's not a long time for a demon, it does feel a little strange for us who used to live with humans every day."

Zhi Qu Cang Na nodded in agreement.

“Speaking of which, Sona, I have to congratulate you.” Rias said, her face involuntarily showing envy. “I heard that you were recently transferred to a border patrol unit as a combat commander because of your outstanding performance.”

The situation changed faster than anyone expected.

What was originally just a standoff was unexpected. One of the leaders of the Fallen Angels, who had survived since ancient times, actually perished together with Gabriel, the spiritual pillar of Heaven second only to Michael, near the border between the Heavenly and Hell-controlled areas.

These are the highest-ranking leaders of the three races who fell after the great war in ancient times.

This event was like a thunderbolt, instantly shattering any thought among the three races that they might want to avoid war.

Previously, the border area remained unchanged due to the 217 incident involving the small motorcycle. After this incident, small-scale wars, large or small, would break out almost every few days.

Under these circumstances, virtually all personnel and combat power of the three races were urgently recalled, ready to fight with all their might.

Compared to the younger demons of her generation whose power has not yet fully matured, Sona Shiki, who belongs to the strategist faction, naturally has an advantage.

She shone brightly in the underworld for her outstanding performance in a recent armed conflict.

"Although I'm called a combat commander, I still have to stay in the rear most of the time." Sona Shito wasn't proud because of her friend's slightly envious words. She simply raised her hand to push up her glasses and said calmly, "After all, with my sister around, it's not very likely that I can go to a place where I can fully utilize my abilities."

"That's true. My elder brother doesn't want me to go to a place where I can really show my abilities. Demons need plenty of battles to grow."

Rias deeply agreed and nodded repeatedly.

"No, under these circumstances, the premise is to preserve our manpower as much as possible, so I don't have much of an opinion on that."

Just moments ago she seemed to be complaining about her situation, but now Sona Shiki is expressing completely different feelings.

Why did the situation change so quickly?

Zhiqu Cangna looked up at the dark clouds in the underworld sky and sighed inwardly.

Chapter 149 Shall we go together?

The situation between the underworld, hell, and heaven has become quite clear.

At this moment, Heaven and Hell, like severely wounded wild beasts, roared as they emerged from their lair, circling and pacing in their own territories, wanting to destroy anything threatening in their path to ensure their safety.

Under the will of the entire race, even Azazel and Michael could hardly reverse the situation.

The angels and the fallen angels' patrols have clashed countless times.

This conflict not only failed to alleviate the hatred between them, but instead made the resentment grow deeper and more intense.

In this situation, the underworld naturally cannot remain uninvolved.

In other words, neither the Underworld nor the Celestial Realm allows the Underworld to remain unscathed and preserve its strength while the two races are at war and both are losing resources.

Otherwise, as both sides gradually weaken, the Underworld, which has preserved its strength, will definitely keep them up at night.

In the underworld, many of the younger generation have experienced the baptism of war and are gradually maturing.

However, there is still a considerable distance between them and being able to truly shoulder the responsibility.

Friends who hadn't seen each other for a while chatted and laughed together.

The power of the three nations in the Bible myth has waned, and other forces are unwilling to get involved with the three nations at this time lest they get burned.

Rather than causing trouble while they are at the height of their power, it's better to patiently wait for a better opportunity.

Therefore, the scene in the human world at this moment was unexpectedly peaceful.

The activity of various mythical creatures subsequently decreased significantly.

Even those fallen, lost demons or lost priests seemed to sense the ominous atmosphere and obediently concealed themselves.

Kuoh Academy.

roof.

Whether it's because the weather is gradually getting colder, or because there are too few people who have the key to the rooftop, the place is filled with a desolate atmosphere.

The only sound on the entire rooftop was the extremely faint sound of chewing.

"Splash—.‖—"

The door on the roof was pushed open.

The subtle chewing sound paused for a moment.

Then, she gently raised her hand, casually gathered her silver hair, and continued as if no one else was around.

Those dark purple eyes flickered slightly.

The sandwich in her hand seemed to attract her attention more than anything else.

Good afternoon, Ling'ai.

As Su Mu approached, he raised his hand to greet the silver-haired girl.

The girl who is intently battling the sandwich in her hand is named Himuro Reia.

She had long silver hair, dark purple eyes, fair and pretty cheeks, and a curvaceous figure.

After a large number of beautiful female students suddenly applied for temporary leave of absence from school, the arrival of such outstanding young women attracted the attention of countless people.

Unfortunately, what they understood even more clearly was that no matter how beautiful she was, it had nothing to do with them.

She maintains a distant and unapproachable attitude when dealing with most people.

However, only Su Mu knew that this girl was not actually the cold type; on the contrary, she was rather naive.

As for why he knew this girl so well...

Because the other party was able to appear in the world only because of his power.

Previously, he had provoked Gabriel, one of only four archangels in the heavens, to fight against Almors, the leader of the fallen angels of the underworld. The final result was that both of them died.

Almors died at Gabriel's hands, and the severely wounded Gabriel's soul was eventually taken by Su Mu as a sacrifice.

However, to outsiders, it appeared that Gabriel and Armorth perished together.

Thus, the taut string snapped instantly, and the conflict between the two races continued, completely shattering the peaceful situation among the three races.

In this incident, Su Mu achieved a Platinum-level achievement, and the reward was the soul of the girl in front of him.

Subsequently, Su Mu used the Eternal Destruction System within the Holy Lance to make its soul manifest in a physical form.

"Ah, good afternoon." Himuro Rei seemed to only then notice Su Mu's arrival, swallowed what was in her mouth, and then spoke softly.

Then, a girl named Himuro Reia picked up a bag of sandwiches from the ones placed next to her and handed it to Su Mu.

"Want some?"

Su Mu reached out and took the package, then opened it.

"Hmm, it's kimchi flavored today. Your taste is really strange. I think the last one was salted egg flavored?"

"I just think it's always better to try more things."

Himuro Rei's pale purple eyes were calm as she spoke in a monotone voice.

Her voice was filled with an indescribable weariness, always giving the impression that she was the type who had no energy.

“That’s true, trying new things is never a bad thing.” After quickly finishing his sandwich, Su Mu asked casually, “So, how have you been feeling lately?”

"Hmm." As if she had been asked something unpleasant, Himuro Rei gripped the sandwich tightly in her hand.

Even so, his face remained expressionless.

After a long while, she slowly spoke.

"pain."

"My body really hurts... It hurts a lot every time the alchemy array is activated."

Su Mu used the power of the three races from the Bible and mythology, and even the entire world, as sacrifices, using the wars between them and the souls of the deceased to set up the alchemical array.

Once this alchemy array is successfully completed, it will greatly enhance his power, allowing him to rise to a higher level.

The principle behind it is mainly Su Mu's knowledge of occultism. After all, he considers himself a "scholar," so his knowledge of related topics must be considerable.

However, the idea of ​​setting up such a transmutation circle originated from a plan completed by Reinhard Heydrich, known as the Golden Beast, over a period of nearly a century in the world called "The Day of Divine Wrath."

Himuro Reia is a character from the world's "Day of Divine Wrath".

Furthermore, she could be considered the core of that punishment.

Although it doesn't seem to have any combat power, it's hard to imagine that it's a soul obtained through a Platinum-level achievement.

However, it actually possesses the "reason" of "sacrificing itself to allow others to be born in the strongest form".

Such a Himuro Reia could serve as a transit point, or rather an accelerator or amplifier, for Su Mu and the transmutation array in their original plan, thereby increasing the success rate and effectiveness of the plan.

"Ah, I see... But I'm sorry, I'll have to ask you to continue to be patient, Reia."

Chapter 150 Stargazing with Orpheus

"What an outrageous man." The silver-haired girl's expression didn't change much upon hearing this; she simply picked up the sandwich in her hand and brought it to her mouth. "Hearing a woman say that her body was in unbearable pain, he actually told her to please bear with it a little longer?"

"Shouldn't you try your best to help relieve the pain? Like making brown sugar water. Especially since you caused this pain."

“No, if we use your way of putting it, then many men probably wouldn’t be able to escape the description of ‘excessive’.” Su Mu retorted in the same style after hearing the girl’s slightly lewd words. “Please be as patient as possible. I will try my best to minimize the pain you suffer in a gentle manner.”

Her birth was intended to be a part of the transmutation array.

Each activation of the transmutation array caused her immense pain.

Therefore, she longed for her whole body to be as insensitive to many things as wood or stone.

This expressionless demeanor at this moment is the manifestation of this desire in action.

A girl named Himuro Reia swallowed the sandwich in her mouth.

"cold."

She suddenly said.

The topic is so off-topic that it would be difficult for many people to follow her train of thought.

"Lend me your clothes."

As Himuro Rei spoke, she reached out her hand to Su Mu.
