Rias Gremory led her familiars, while Cannaside brought her student council members; the two groups tacitly formed an encirclement.
Zhou Ye, along with his small team, followed at the very back at a leisurely pace, finding a dilapidated bleacher with an excellent view, looking ready to watch the show.
Kokobo's gaze swept across the entire area, finally settling on Rias and Sona.
He rested his chin on his hand, gazing at them with the eyes of someone admiring a work of art, his gaze filled with condescending scrutiny.
"Good, good, you've finally arrived."
His voice carried a morbid excitement.
"Riasgate, Cannashidi."
"I will use your two heads as the stepping stones to start a new mythological war!"
The arrogant declaration echoed in the silent night sky.
In the past, the mere name of Kirkbor would have been enough to put Rias under immense pressure.
But now, she only looked at the self-satisfied man on the throne from the ground.
She subconsciously glanced at Zhou Ye in the stands not far away. The man was leaning lazily against a pillar and even gave her a "go for it" gesture.
A warm feeling welled up in her heart, and Rias straightened her back.
What are you afraid of?
Even if you really can't beat them, he'll still cover for you.
Thinking of this, a mocking smile appeared on Rias's face.
"Kokbor, you disgraceful fallen angel, what are you calling out here?"
The crisp sound, though not loud, clearly reached everyone's ears.
Kokober's smile froze.
Rias completely ignored his momentary darkening of expression and continued:
"Mythology even boasts that you attacked the God of the Bible, how brave and fearless you were."
"But according to what I've read in some unofficial histories, what you call an attack was nothing more than throwing a tiny light gun at Him from a distance of 108,000 miles away, and then running away without looking back, wasn't it?"
"You're quick to run away, taking all the hatred and pressure to the fallen angels, Governor Azazel and Vice Governor Shemhasa."
"What? This guy who betrays his friends for personal gain still has the nerve to show his face in front of me today and shamelessly declare that he wants to start a war?"
Every word Rias uttered was like a sharp dagger, stabbing viciously into Kirkbor's pathetic pride.
Wow! Beautiful!
Zhou Ye, watching from a distance, almost couldn't help but applaud.
[Rias's tongue is sharp! Just what I wanted! To deal with this kind of stubborn old fogey, you have to publicly rip off his underwear and nail him to the pillar of shame!]
[It's so satisfying to expose someone's dark past!]
Kokober's body began to tremble uncontrollably.
It wasn't out of fear, but out of extreme anger.
Rias revealed his most humiliating past, the one he least wanted to be mentioned!
"You...what did you say?!"
His voice, as if squeezed out from between his teeth, carried a strong killing intent.
"boom!"
A terrifying magical power erupted from his body, forming a visible black storm centered on him!
The ground of the entire square cracked inch by inch under the pressure of this force!
"A mere little girl from the Gremory family! A snot-nosed devil! How dare... how dare you humiliate me like this!"
Kokober suddenly stood up from his throne, his ten wings fully unfurled, blocking out the moonlight.
That handsome face was now twisted with rage, looking utterly ferocious.
"I will kill you! I will definitely kill you! I will extract your soul and burn it with holy light for ten thousand years!"
Upon seeing this, Friedselzan immediately began barking like a mad dog, cheering for his master.
"Did you hear that, you filthy demons! This is Lord Kirkbor's wrath! You trash, are you ready to be purified?! Hehehehe!"
Cannashidi calmly pushed up his glasses, took a step forward, and stood side by side with Rias.
"Are you angry and embarrassed? It seems Rias is right."
Her voice was calm, yet it was as if she had poured oil on Kirkbor's anger.
"Shut up, you little girl from the Sidi family! After I deal with Gremory, you'll be next!"
Kirkbor roared as he stretched out his right hand, in which a massive spear of light was rapidly coalescing.
The energy contained within it made all the young demons present feel suffocated.
Himejima Akeno's usual smile now carried a hint of coldness, and golden lightning began to dance at her fingertips.
"Hehe, how embarrassing. When someone touches a sore spot, you throw a tantrum like a child."
Kiba Yuto held his sword across his chest, his expression calmer than ever before.
His enemy is Kirkbor, not the Holy Sword.
He wields his sword to protect his comrades.
That's it.
On the other side, Xenovia's expression became extremely strange.
She looked at the furious and out-of-control fallen angel executive, and then recalled the calm and composed demeanor of Zhou Ye and Saeko Busujima earlier.
A thought, uncontrollably, popped into my head.
[This is... the legendary fallen angel? A powerful being from mythology?]
Why does this little thing smell so... bad?
Her faith began to waver once again.
"You! You insects! You all must die!"
Kokobol was completely blinded by rage. He raised the spear of light high and aimed it at the source of his anger—Rias.
"It starts with you! Rias Gremory! Turn to ashes!"
The terrifying magical fluctuations caused space itself to distort and spin.
Just as Kirkbor was about to throw the light gun.
On Rias's left ring finger, a simple-looking ring suddenly glowed with a deep, destructive magical light.
The Ring of Destruction!
At the same time, a semi-transparent purple shield, resembling the weeping face of a banshee, instantly appeared in front of her.
The Banshee's Veil!
Rias raised her head, her beautiful violet eyes filled with not a trace of fear, but only a fierce fighting spirit.
“Bring it on, Kirkbor.”
"Let me see just how much a coward who only throws stones at the back of a god really weighs!"
Chapter 185 Rias: Your comments are so low-class, a disgrace to fallen angels.
"boom--!"
The raging spear of light was not thrown as everyone expected.
In his extreme anger, Kirkbor forcibly suppressed the urge to execute Rias immediately.
His rage needed a grander stage; he wanted these arrogant little devils to die in utter despair!
"Let's have some appetizers before enjoying the main course."
Kokober grinned maliciously and slammed his hands down on the ground.
"Come out, my little pets!"
As he summoned, two enormous magic circles unfolded on either side of the plaza, and black flames shot into the sky.
Two colossal beasts, each the size of a truck, engulfed in hellfire, and bearing three ferocious dog heads, roared and charged out of the magic circle.
Cerberus, the three-headed dog of hell!
"Roar!"
The six pairs of eyes of the two hellhounds instantly locked onto Rias and Sona's familiars, and pounced on them with a strong sulfurous smell!
"Attack!"
Cangna calmly issued the order.
Kiba Yuuto and Xenovia exchanged a glance, then, one on each side, they transformed into two swift shadows and met one of the hellhounds.
"Irina, cover!" Xenovia shouted.
"Leave it to 207!" Irina raised the holy sword high, and the holy light caused the hellhound's movements to falter for a moment.
Meanwhile, the student council members of Sona quickly formed a battle formation and, led by Vice President Tsubaki Makoto, blocked another hellhound.
The battle breaks out instantly!
Having resolved the issue of the ragtag soldiers, Kokober finally refocused all his attention on the women who had fueled his anger.
With a sudden flap of his ten wings, he rose into the air, looking down at Rias, Sona, and Akeno Himejima.
He sensed it; these three people, along with the vice president Shinra Tsubaki who held the mirror, were the most powerful among this group of kids.
"Now, it's your turn!"
Kirkbor spread his arms, and countless magical light points converged behind him.
The next second, hundreds and thousands of spears of light poured down like a torrential rain, blocking all their space to dodge!
