Ah ha ha It’s probably a good experience for them

Lucia laughed in amusement

When the 13 of Dante also noticed the change they screamed like nails on a chalkboard and writhed around but more out of disgust than pain

This was the opposite of when Machina had sent the angel energy elsewhere She had sent demon power into their bodies The moisture forming their saliva blood and the rest of their body had been turned to Succubi by the demonic influence Angel bodies were a divine light that sliced through everything demonic

Divine lightning showed no mercy and made no exceptions If it contacted a demon it would automatically burn them away

They themselves burned away the moisture of their bodies

The demonic influence did not affect their entire body but it had reached their blood vessels They were essentially losing more blood with each pump of their hearts Plus

Michasurrender Surely that’s enough

Ange got up despite still being woozy

It did look like the battle was over

They were no longer even using their flames but their blood was being drained by their own biological reactions If they kept fighting they would only worsen their wounds with their flames and Ange’s attacks would now be fatal to them Micha sighed in exasperation and brushed a hand through her hair

Dante that’s enough You can leave

Micha gave a command to the 13 waiting behind her

They had no emotions so they simply shut their eyes in response A moment later flames engulfed them and they burst just like Rapha had 13 golden seeds entered the pool

Ange’s group watched in shock

Micha had sent her allies away but she was clearly not going to surrender since she was still here

Get ready Ange I will go all out but it wouldn’t be any fun if I killed you instantly

She removed the earring visible on the ear revealed when she brushed up her hair

It was round small and shaped like a wing

Big Bang

When it transformed into a thin glowing rapier Ange subconsciously let go of her own sword Her innate battle sense told her what was going to happen next

The thin line of the sword swept through the sky

Ange’s Prominence was sliced in two Ange herself jumped back and tackled Lucia and Machina to the floor

A gust of wind passed by overhead

My molecular serialization can’t keep up

The energy coming from Micha should have had its molecular data rewritten before it arrived too close but Machina’s eyes widened

The floor had become a grassy field but now it returned to being a plain ship’s deck

The magic had been dispelled More accurately the molecules needed to perform the magic had been blown away by the gust of wind produced by the sweeping sword

They had avoided the energy itself but space looked distorted in the night sky back where it had flown The sword had such a sharp edge and high temperature that it had tugged on space itself and violently moved the molecules in the air Tch Focus on clearing the way Ibekusa And on my fire resistance

Machina’s bunny ears stood upright

She resumed the Laplace molecular movement measurements and created a hole through which to insert demons into Micha’s body More than just her stomach fire burst from all over the woman’s brown skin Hee hee Excellent This is definitely a drain on my stamina

Micha swung her rapier again while acting like the damage was actually pleasant

There was nothing that thin sword tip could not cut when fully swung

So before it could fully emit its power Ange blocked it with Prominence’s hilt That just barely prevented them from being sliced through

Nova

The sword’s blade was replaced by roaring flames

And Ange went on the attack

Micha blocked it with an elegant sway of the rapier’s tip

It has been a while since we sparred with swords hasn’t it

Only because a certain someone insisted she was too old for it anymore

Is that any way to speak to the person who taught you everything you know

Micha cleverly shifted her sword to ward off Ange’s rapid strikes

There should have been an overwhelming weight difference between the large sword and the rapier yet their power was even If anything the weight difference was the only reason Ange was not being overpowered Micha naturally had the greater speed but

Sh

When a scythe suddenly grew from the space behind her and aimed for her neck she caught it on her rapier’s hilt

You never relax do you I can see why you and that old hag Lilith get along so well

Watch what you say That’s what makes Lilith so classy

Lucia joined in to make it two-against-one

When they attacked in waves they could match Micha’s speed

Machina played a support role by redirecting the fatal flames away from Lucia and by obstructing Micha’s movements by sending steel-strong vines out to grab the woman’s legs or arms

Their teamwork was not a calculated thing They were far from in sync

But Micha could tell while fighting them that they were getting better at it by the moment She was having trouble keeping up with their speed and when she tried to catch up the weight of the rapidly-swung sword nearly pushed her rapier away And as expected Ange had the superior raw talent

In the moment she was distracted by Lucia’s scythe a kick hit her in the knee

She stumbled for a moment and history’s strongest warrior understood all too well what that meant

As soon as she brought her center of gravity to the foot behind her the floor sank down below her foot That would be Machina’s doing Her center of gravity was thrown off and she could not gather any strength in the hand meant to block the scythe coming for her throat She was forced to use both hands to block it but that left her wide open to Ange

I knew bringing you to the surface was a good idea

That veteran warrior knew all too well that she had lost

You made some good friends there didn’t you

Shining

That sword was made from two blades pressed together like a pair of scissors and those two blades fell away to leave only the central flames

The narrow and perfectly straight beam of light pierced through Micha’s gut

That was the exact spot that had been constantly erupting with flames due to the demonization process

All the air burst from her lungs

It was mixed with blood that sprayed out into the air

The blue fire – that divine light of judgment – pierced through the core of the strongest angel

It burned through all of her blood that was being converted into demons Her brown skin split open and the red of blood and fire scattered everywhere

That partner had practically been family to Ange so she frowned for just a moment upon seeing her body split apart like that

But a moment later all pride vanished from her face

But that aside

Micha persisted in keeping her rapier raised

And her other hand reached for her other earring

I really really hate losing

Micha

We’re a lot alike Ange That’s the biggest reason I chose to bring you down to the surface with me

Big Bang – Loop

As soon as Micha readied the two rapiers her brown skin turned to fire and she unraveled

Her body began to vanish starting from the stomach

She had gathered every last ounce of strength to continue the game but her body collapsed first She blinked in confusion

That’s enough Micha It pains me to see you hurt and I do not want to see Ange or the others hurt either

The young man stood up

He must have intervened and forcibly returned the fire to her body She had no choice but to give up now

She was clearly not happy about it but that was that She laughed and winked at stunned Ange

My my That was fun Ange You’re glad you came to the surface now aren’t you

A moment later she burst and disappeared like she had never even been there

Only a speck of light remained and that fell into the pool
