  ....

  "Kyoya, did Kiba just achieve the Bance Breaker for his Sword Birth? And it's a fusion of holy and demonic power!" Rias excimed, her eyes wide with surprise.

  Everyone present was surprised, especially Xenovia and Irina, who stared at each other in astonishment.

  After a moment, Rias and Akeno exged a knowing gnd smiled, relieved that Kiba had finally emerged from the shadow of the Holy Sword Project.

  "Kokabiel, Your little minions are all gone. Now, it's just you and me," I said, turning to Kokabiel with a smirk.

  Then--

  Kokabiel, who had been in the sky, suddenly burst into a fit of manic ughter.

  "Hmph, hahaha... Do you really think you defeat me? How naive. But speaking of which, you two Holy Sword Wielders from the Church... How you still fight after losing yod?"

  "What?!" Xenovia gasped. "Lose od? What do you mean? Answer me—Kokabiel!"

  I raised an eyebrow, but I didn't stop Kokabiel from revealing the truth.

  After all, both the system's tasks and the story's progression required them to know. The only question was whether they could ha...

  Meanwhile, Kokabiel covered his face with one hand and ughed wickedly. "Oops, I guess I let that slip. But since I'm already pnning to start a war, I have nothing to hide anymore."

  "Yod... died a thousand years ago in the Great War!"

  ....

  Silence!

  The se was utterly silent!

  The God of the Bible was dead?

  "God is dead?!"

  Hearing this, everyone except me, including Rias and even the usually expressionless Koneko, was stuheir faces filled with shock.

  "You're lying...!" Xenovia and Irina stared at Kokabiel in disbelief.

  "God—is dead?"

  "Impossible! We've never heard of such a thing!"

  Rias widened her eyes, an expression of disbelief on her face.

  "Hmph, in the Great War thousand of years ago—God single-handedly dragged down the inal Freat Satans of the Underworld and a rge number of High-css Devils."

  "The Angels and Fallen Angels also lost most of their forces, except for their leaders."

  "Pure-blooded Angels o longer be born, and pure-blooded Devils are being increasingly rare."

  "The leaders of the Angels, Fallen Angels, and Devils, and even the gods and mythical beings of other pantheons, cealed this truth to ehe survival of the humans who believed in God."

  Hearing this, everyone was stunned into silence.

  Kokabiel, oher hand, grew more and mitated, his face twisting with anger as he gritted his teeth. "What I'm dissatisfied with is that after God and the Maou were dead, that bastard Azazel decided that war ointless and chose to stop! If the battle had tihe Fallen Angels would surely have been victorious, and there wouldn't be the Three Fas as they exist now. Unfivable!!"

  Towards the end, Kokabiel couldn't help but roar.

  "You're lying... You must be lying... It 't be true!"

  Hearing Kokabiel's words, Xenovia and Irina's legs gave way, and they crumpled to the ground, a sense of panid helplessness washing over them.

  As devout believers in the God of the Bible, the news of his death was a devastating blow.

  But Asia, suddenly retorted, "God is gone?!"

  "You're lying! Then how do you expin the blessings and miracles we received from the Church?"

  This statement immediately became Xenovia and Irina's st hope, because those were the powers of God, and couldn't be faked!

  Kokabiel grinned, looking at Asia with an amused expression. "Hmph, even though God is dead, as long as the system of Heaves, Michael manipute it to grant blessings and grace. But he only maintain the system's operation. There are many loopholes in the system now, such as not being able to create new pure-blood Angels!"

  "And because God is dead, the boundary between holy and demonic power has bee unstable. That's why that boy over there was able to fuse holy and demonic power to create a Holy Demonic Sword."

  "And you, former nun of the Church. If God hadn't died and the system of Heaven hadn't developed problems, leading to plications with Sacred Gears, your Sacred Gear would never have been able to heal Devils!"

  Hearing Kokabiel's expnation, Asia almost fainted and colpsed. Luckily, Koneko was there to catch her and help her sit down under a tree.

  "So, Argel Michael is the one repg God!" Xenovia excimed, her voice filled with disbelief.

  "Then... what are we?" Irina murmured, her eyes filled with pain.

  Kiba's expression was plex.

  When he and his panions were at the brink of despair and colpse during the Holy Sword Project, they stantly sang hymns and prayed to God.

  However, in the end, the Holy Sword Project failed, and they were disposed of by the Church. At that time, he believed that God had abahem, so he joihe Underworld and became Rias's Reinated Devil.

  Now, Kiba uood that it wasn't that God had abahem. It was because God had already fallen in the Great War thousand of years ago.

  ...

  God couldn't have heard their prayers.

  "So, I'm going to offer your heads as a sacrifice! Even if I have to do it alone, I will tihe war!" Kokabiel decred.

  "If I kill the sister of Maou Sirzechs and the sister of Maou Leviathan, it will surely ighe wrath of the two Maou in the Underworld! Then, the Great War of aimes will be revived!"

  "Hahaha..."

  Speaking of this, Kokabiel began to ugh out loud.

  All the truths had been revealed, and everyone fell silent.

  "...."

  But just then, I looked at the crazed Kokabiel and said calmly, "Well, are you doalking? Are you done ughing? If so, it's time for you ao settle things,"

  Hearing my words, Kokabiel's ughter abruptly stopped, and his expression froze.

  "Even if God is dead, what does it matter to us? We just o live our own lives, don't you think?" I asked, turning to Rias and the others with a smile.

  Rias and the others exged gnces and smiled back at me.

  "And you two heartbroken girls... Why are you ag like you've been abandoned? You should think about what you're living for. If yod was still alive, would he want to see you like this?"

  "If you really have o go, I take you in," I said, looking at Xenovia and Irina with a gentle smile.
