While holding Miss C Ange could only defenselessly take the blows

Gaahh

Eh Wahh

Even after taking several punches that rivalled getting hit by a large truck Ange made a counterattack as if the punches meant nothing

She used the hand not holding Schwarze to reach for the giant who looked ten times her size

She could not reach the woman’s neck but she pushed on her stomach to slam her into the opposite wall Her giant body was also embedded in the melted wall

Vgh Ohh

Eeghkwaah

Gaah

Once she pushed back Ange’s repelling air pressure shield could be used to attack The two Witches were squeezed between the intense wind pressure and the metal walls

Once Metatron has activated resistance is futile I can’t believe you would oppose Ange now that she is heaven’s judgment

Rapha shut his eyes sadly as he watched on

As he had said Ange was entirely unscathed Her body was still wrapped in a dazzling divine light and she easily pushed back the two who bore mankind’s greatest wisdom

Ghdammit Miss Dare you okay

Kahgh I-I won’t diewith this body

The two Witches raised their heads as all of their bones audibly creaked

They both knew they were not going to win like this Miss C was their fastest and she had been captured Miss D had their greatest strength and her rush had done no damage Jiyuuni Ange had the attack power needed to break into their headquarters in eighteen minutes but she also had extraordinary defenses She was no longer a living being She was a weapon

They both knew they could not win like this

I guesswe have to do it

Yes

They confirmed that they were going to turn themselves into weapons too

Miss C withdrew her claws and Miss D returned her swollen body to its two meter size Miss C grabbed her cat hat and Miss D grabbed her maid headdress

That was the Y Device In exchange for the threat of death that ultimate attack circuit could transform them into living weapons This did not look like a threat they could face otherwise

Neither one hesitated Protecting this place was the ultimate task of every FeTUS member so they were willing to lose their life to that end

Let’s go

A door suddenly appeared down the hallway in which the angel and the Witches were fighting

It was a generic and old-fashioned wooden door Shortly after it contacted Ange’s glow the wood passed its autoignition temperature and turned to ash

The rest of the hallway did not lie beyond it The space that had been there before had been cut off

You broke into the headquarters far faster than expected Miss E D and C have all effectively

lost Well done Maiden of Destruction Well done Red Queen

A room filled with darkness appeared

But I cannot allow you to advance any further or to harm my precious daughters

The room contained a giant rabbit

Ange’s behavior changed when she saw the girl elegantly sipping at a teacup while sitting atop the large clock inside

She retracted the golden flames pinning the two Witches and had them wrap around herself

Finally freed from the air pressure Miss C and Miss D fell to the floor They gasped for breath as they looked to Ange and the center of FeTUS inside the newly-appeared room

That angel had suddenly raised her defenses despite only thinking of attack when faced with the two Witches

FeTUS’s leader seemed to have her defenses entirely lowered despite the mindless living weapon before her

Thus

The girl made sure to gracefully set down her teacup before standing up

I am Miss A leader of the FeTUS Witches

I Alice Arc shall be your opponent

Vaahh

As soon as she saw her the ultimate angelic weapon attacked with the intensity of her roar

She was ruled by her primitive intellect and her wild instincts

It was kill or be killed The girl before her now was not just an obstacle like the previous walls machines and Witches

This was her archenemy who might just be able to take her life

She passed through the location of the destroyed door and charged forward with all her might

But her way was blocked by a golden magic circle just like the one Machina had used

She had broken the previous one with a single hand but this one did not break even after a full-body tackle

I had wondered what the legendary Metatron was but I did not expect a life form itself to be the weapon

Gbh Gyaahh

Purple lightning burst from the circle and pierced the girl’s body It did not leave a wound but the bright electricity wrapped around the girl’s glow blasted it backwards and elicited a scream from Ange That purple electricity consumed angel fire

But the girl’s fighting spirit had not dulled so she struggled inside the magic circle of golden

thread The girl named Alice sadly lowered her eyes

Poor girl

She then gave a look of scorn to the young man who stepped inside the room

After a glance toward Ange’s suffering Rapha looked around the room

There were no lights inside but Ange’s glow was enough of a light source to see every nook and cranny

They were underground yet the hall was larger than a soccer field

The stone floor was decorated with the patterns of fifty-three playing cards The only items inside were the giant rabbit and the large clock There was nothing else

However the rabbit and clock were not what drew the eye

It was the walls Rapha widened his eyes as he looked around at all four walls

So this is the core of what you humans have developed to prevent a Paradise Lost This is your sanctuary

The walls were covered in thick acrylic so the hall was surrounded by a tank filled with an unnaturally clear liquid that was not water

There were no fish swimming and no coral swaying inside

There were human bodies

They seemed to be soaked in preservative formaldehyde but they were not whole bodies

Women’s bodies from the stomach down to the thighs were lined up at even intervals

Rapha’s eyes shined brightly at the grotesque scene and someone answered him

Precisely Producing the Holy Grail is the one way of saving our civilization from our rivals in heaven This is mankind’s final fortress

Although the research data has already been removed so maybe we shouldn’t be calling it our sanctuary anymore

It was the two Witches from before Black Cat stuck her claws below the young man’s throat

If he moved she would kill him but the man’s smile remained

Well that just means we need to dispose of what was removed while we’re at it

Ghvvhh

Struck by lightning and unable to pass the magic circle Ange stopped struggling

But she had not given up The sun-like glow in her angled eyes grew brighter to indicate her unwavering hatred for all mankind

Her silver wings pendant floated up

Her divine sword is manifesting itself Be careful Miss A

Prominence

Miss C shouted a warning just as the girl grabbed the pendant and it transformed into a black sword taller than she was

Nova

The sword only retained its form for an instant

Flames surged down the center and became the golden flames of Metatron The heat was so great that the black sword burst and flames spewed from the hilt to create a sword of fire itself

Not even her weapon could withstand the intensity of the angel of death’s flames

Zwaahh

Miss A the greatest mind in the world abandoned her position of absolute advantage and jumped back based on instinct not logic

That ended up saving her life The flame sword sliced apart the inviolable magic circle so easily it might as well have been made of styrofoam

Miss A

The maid screamed and the girl looked at her left hand with a bitter smile

Her palm was burned black Not only had the anti-angel magic circle been sliced apart but the residual heat had surpassed the heat-reducing circuit

So a being who cast aside the Fruit of Knowledge will still use a tool that symbolizes knowledge
