FeTUS HQ is below the school Ange is here right

There was a bottomless hole in the floor where the tower had been

The edges of the hole were melted like hot water dripped onto a sheet of ice Ange was the only angel he knew who could provide that kind of heat

He was about to turn to Lucia and say they had to head down there but

Ibekusa did something happen

He noticed Machina was acting odd

Her unfamiliar and sexy outfit was one thing but she also had flushed cheeks and damp eyes

Almost as if

It’s nothing

The girl gave a quick reply and looked the other way

The boy more or less understood what he had to do

He embraced her oddly warm body in the rain

She seemed a little surprised but no words were necessary

Lucia pouted his lips in displeasure as he watched Mutsuki’s powerful embrace

Machina finally relaxed her body and entrusted all of herself to him

Fully deploy heat-resistant fibersnegative Physical interference in phase space impossible

Expanding 36 layers of KWno effect

Ange had become an embodiment of judgement so she was now a sun-like ball of light that burned away all that approached

The top and bottom of the room were melting in a round shape The acrylic glass of the surrounding water tanks was melting and the formaldehyde vaporized in less than ten seconds

The angel named Rapha had already passed out and collapsed onto the floor That only left the three Witches equipped with heat-resistant circuits and the rabbit decoration

They had brought out all of their anti-angel equipment to protect their headquarters but it had been ineffective and the equipment itself soon melted

This is a problem

Miss A sat on the large clock she loved so much The cup she had set down there earlier had already burned into white sand

What do we do What are we supposed to do Miss A can’t you do something

Schwarze shouted at her because her heat-resistant circuits could no longer fight the heat Even breathing had grown difficult and just speaking left her out of breath

Hm said Miss Alice Where is the data on our Holy Grail research

She turned toward sweaty Miss D for that question

I-it is being transferred to the headquarters in another country But I believe only about half has been sent so far

I see That isn’t good If this place is lost it will set our research back by ten years

How can you be so calm We need to do something about her If this fire is directed outward this country will only have Hokkaido and Okinawa left

Black Cat raised her voice and Miss Arc’s lips loosened a little

You’re so kind Miss C You always were You’ll get as cruel as can be for your duty but you always did hate harming unrelated people

She stood up and waved both hands

Golden threads shot from her tiny fingertips They intertwined into thick threads and wrapped around the bomb of light that Ange had become

An angel’s flame is matter not plasma When it explodes it should take 1/1000 of a second to convert the holy flame of her body into fire If this heat distorting fiber is directed vertically when that happens the acceleration of energy might be directed up into the sky as a capillary action So the heat would escape into space

If it goes well the residual heat would only vaporize this hill or this city

B-but then

By applying a trick at the instant of detonation they could minimize the damage but the person who applied the trick would have to be there at the instant of detonation

It has to be me The only way to predict the right 1/1000 of a second is to use the Grand Guignol system

But Miss A Then you’ll-

Their heat-resistant circuits were useless already so a human Witch would be instantly turned to ash once Metatron exploded

But the girl insisted

I will simply be visiting some old friends

The smile on her innocent face seemed to say she did not mind

Heh heh But Miss Y won’t be too happy to see me if I don’t have any chocolate for her as a souvenir

It was an aged and horribly tired smile that looked out of place on her young face

She almost seemed to be looking forward to the afterlife

You two escape If you’re lucky you can survive

Once you get outside leave this hill as quickly as possible I expect the angels will have evacuated him but make sure to protect the Adam boy Mankind’s future and everything we must overcome rest on that boy’s shoulders Miss C wrinkled her brow and looked like she had something to say and Miss D’s face stiffened as the young girl gave them both kind motherly instructions

AndMiss E

She was kindly yet coolly looking to the future as she gave these instructions

You can give up on the data if you must And don’t forget to get Machina out of here

As long as we have the Adam boy and Machina we have the bare minimum needed to continue

the plan

Understood

Go

As Ange’s light gradually grew Alice spread her arms and prepared for the instant of judgment

The other two Witches were polar opposites

Miss D’s expression froze over like a noh mask and she started to leave the room as instructed

Conversely Miss C stayed put She wrinkled her brow and looked on the verge of tears as she refused to take her eyes off of Miss A

You go too Miss C It’s dangerous here

Schwarze Do not trouble me here

How was she to convince this reluctant kitten to leave her mother in such a short time Alice truly was troubled

She decided to have loyal Miss D carry Miss C out so she looked over to stop the maid

And then her expression froze in surprise for the first time that day

Wow look at all that light I-is that Ange

Damn that’s hot That’s definitely angel light So this is Metatron Hot hot hot

Stay back The heat is being bent with a spatial fissure but photons this powerful are enough to burn away a normal human on their own

Machina a demon and the Adam boy who should never have been here rushed into the room

Miss D Miss C and even Miss A were dumbfounded

That boy was the core of FeTUS’s plan and mankind’s history would end if anything happened to

him but he had rushed up to a bomb that was about to detonate

The boy did not seem to care as he bowed toward Black Cat and ran toward the light

Ange Can you hear me Ange You’re in there right

He yelled

Machina’s heat-erasing magic circle was managing for now but the room’s temperature was already high enough to boil all the moisture in a living creature’s body Lucia was weak to angelic power so he was suffering just being in the room Even so Mutsuki approached the source of the heat

N-not good Miss C Miss D Send all your KWs to the boy

The loss of the Adam boy was the greater threat than the destruction of 80% of the country Miss

A abandoned her heat distorting fibers and sent a new circle Mutsuki’s way

The four magic circles from the four Witches bent the light ahead of him

That slight path led to a human figure at the source of the light

The familiar redheaded girl stood there with her eyes closed and the peaceful look of a baby on her face as if she had forgotten everything

Wake upAnge Let’s head home

Mutsuki reached out his hand

But even with the magic circles the tip of his middle finger sizzled and burned black

Next the burns spread across both arms and his skin grew bright red He grimaced from a pain much like sticking his hand in a fire

Oh honestly

Lucia was having trouble just being here but he supported Mutsuki by placing his hands on the boy’s back and sending his cells into him

The demonic life force caused the boy’s hands to regenerate with new cells

KhghWake up Ange C’mon Ange

He could regenerate without end thanks to Lucia’s power but the wounds burned as soon as they healed

He clenched his teeth at the infinite pain of his skin repeatedly healing and burning and he took one step and then another toward the girl
