Chapter 229 The Aftermath 1/7

“Let’s go home~! I’m hungry!” Kisuke walked towards the still stunned group. They’re still processing what just happened, including Serafall.

Kisuke first went to Yoruichi who is stepping on Issei. Kisuke touched Issei’s forehead and sent two strands of his Reiatsu-Ki. The first strand is towards Issei’s mana circuit and the second one towards Ddraig to help him rein the Dragon Power currently rampaging around his body, ‘Dragon-san, please be careful with this guy’s body more.’

‘You can’t blame me. It’s him who asked for power. I’m just going with what my host wants.’ Ddraig replied.

‘…Fair enough.’

‘Anyways, you really did a number to the white bastard. I don’t know you changed your mind in the last moment but it’s good that you didn’t kill him.’

‘Oh… You care about him that much?’

‘Yes. But not the way you’re thinking. I can’t have my rival dying before we could have fun.’

‘Well, you two deal with him in the future.’ Kisuke circulated his Reiatsu-Ki for a few more seconds before disconnecting with Ddraig. He then looked towards Yoruichi.

Yoruichi nodded and solidified her Reiatsu-Ki to carry both the unconscious Koneko and the unmoving Aika. The man in ripped kimono and the black cat dragging the two injured fighters started to walk away, ignoring everyone.

“W-wait! Ki-tan!” Serafall is the first one to recover and speak.

“Hmm?” Kisuke stopped walking and turned around.

“Y-you’re going to leave just like that?” Serafall’s usual demeanor is already gone and she started stuttering on some words.

“Well, I have nothing else to do here. I know you want to ask some questions but is it really the time for that? You still have a lot of work to do.” Kisuke replied and pointed to their surroundings, “You lot still have to fix a lot of things.”

“Guh… True…” Serafall heaved a large sigh, “Then I’ll be visiting you later for official business.”

Kisuke smiled brightly and said, “Got it~. You’re welcome anytime~.” After saying that, however, his smile became cold, “And before I forgot, please make sure that they will learn their lesson. If not, they will really die without being able to fight back the next time they meet someone like that guy.”

All the young Devils, along with the exorcist, shuddered and look down in shame. They really fought someone terrifying without much thought. Although they did it to protect the town, the way they handled it is the worst. The moment they received the information about Kokabiel’s machinations about the Excalibur, they should have relayed that information to the higher-ups so that they could have sent a scouting squad to gauge the situation, after all, this is a Devil’s territory.

“I understand. I’ll make sure that they learn their lesson. But before you go, I want to ask you one thing.”

“Go on… I’m listening.” Kisuke knew Serafall’s seriousness and faced her properly.

“…Are you an enemy?”

“Nee-sama!?” Sona looked towards her sister in shock. But Serafall uncharacteristically ignores her and only stared at Kisuke. Her stare is bordering glare.

Kisuke looked at her eyes and didn’t speak. After which, he fixed his hat and smiled, but instead of Serafall, he turned to Sona, “At the very least, I’m not Sona-kaichou’s enemy.”

Sona suddenly turned to Kisuke and saw his gentle smile. The heat then rose up to her head and her face became red from embarrassment. She hurried looked down as she can’t take his stare but it’s obvious for everyone that she’s trying to stop her grin and failing marvelously.

Akeno on the side felt a pang of jealousy but didn’t know why… She refuses to admit it.

“I see…” Serafall’s bright smile came back and accepted Kisuke’s answer. If he told her that he’s an ally, she would have a hard time believing him, but since he expressed his intentions to distance himself from the factions, she nodded in satisfaction as it’s more believable, “That’s great. Although I must say, you’re going to attract a lot of attention after this. The Underworld will welcome someone like you anytime and you don’t have to become a Devil either~✰.”

Kisuke chuckled, “If it’s convenient for me, then why not~?” He didn’t wait for her to say anything else and turned around and continued walking. After getting a certain distance away from them, Kisuke, Yoruichi, Aika, and Koneko disappeared in a flash.

‘That’s really some insane speed… I could hardly follow it… And the strange cat can do it too.’ Serafall stared at the direction they disappeared for a while before turning her attention to Rias, “Rias-chan, are you fine with him taking Koneko-chan?”

Rias smiled wryly, “Yes… I’m extremely thankful to him for taking care of Koneko. It’s my fault that Koneko suffered those injuries and if he can help her, then I wouldn’t hesitate to ask for his help… Even if it cost me an arm and leg…” Rias already knew her shortcomings and due to her wrong decisions, she was almost killed along those who are important to her. Even then, she’s still willing to accept her punishment.

“Alright~✰! We still have a lot of things to clean up. We have to finish before daybreak so you lot can’t go home yet~✰!” Serafall signaled to the forces she brought with her to start working on the damaged part of the town. Their night is still long, “How about you, Miss Exorcist?”

“!?” Xenovia was startled when she was suddenly called out by the Devil King, “I- I intend to look for the scattered pieces of the Excalibur and bring it to the Church.”

“Hmm… Those fragments of that Holy Sword will affect the restoration magic that we’re about to cast so you can take those with you.” Serafall then started her magic to restore the town. Since it’s their territory, they have the blueprint of everything in the town that they can follow.

“T-Thank you…” Xenovia didn’t expect that she’ll easily agree. She’s even ready to be executed when she caught her attention.

Xenovia was able to gather all the Excalibur’s fine pieces with the help of the Devils. She knew she can’t report this experience to the Church or they might just expel her. Little did she know that she’ll get expelled either way due to the knowledge of God’s death.

She then said her goodbyes and went to Irina’s side. Xenovia also contacted the Church to report her success in retrieving the Excalibur. She also wanted to confirm if what she heard from Kokabiel is true. She left the Devils to restore the town and waited at Irina’s side while reporting.

With so many hands helping with the restoration, The town, the Kuoh Academy, in particular, was restored overnight and the residents aren’t even aware of what just happened.
