"Kyoya, did Kiba just achieve the Balance Breaker for his Sword Birth? And it's a fusion of holy and demonic power!" Rias exclaimed, 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 exchanged a knowing glance and 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 laughter.

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

"What?!" Xenovia gasped. "Lose our God? 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 handle it...

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

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

....

Silence!

The scene 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 stunned, their 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 original Four Great Satans of the Underworld and a large number of High-class Devils."

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

"Pure-blooded Angels can no longer be born, and pure-blooded Devils are becoming increasingly rare."

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

Hearing this, everyone was stunned into silence.

Kokabiel, on the other hand, grew more and more agitated, 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 was pointless and chose to stop! If the battle had continued, the Fallen Angels would surely have been victorious, and there wouldn't be the Three Factions as they exist now. Unforgivable!!"

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

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

Hearing Kokabiel's words, Xenovia and Irina's legs gave way, and they crumpled to the ground, a sense of panic and 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 explain the blessings and miracles we received from the Church?"

This statement immediately became Xenovia and Irina's last 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 Heaven exists, Michael can manipulate it to grant blessings and grace. But he can 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 become 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 complications with Sacred Gears, your Sacred Gear would never have been able to heal Devils!"

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

"So, Archangel Michael is the one replacing God!" Xenovia exclaimed, her voice filled with disbelief.

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

Kiba's expression was complex.

When he and his companions were at the brink of despair and collapse during the Holy Sword Project, they constantly 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 abandoned them, so he joined the Underworld and became Rias's Reincarnated Devil.

Now, Kiba understood that it wasn't that God had abandoned them. 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 continue the war!" Kokabiel declared.

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

"Hahaha..."

Speaking of this, Kokabiel began to laugh 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 done talking? Are you done laughing? If so, it's time for you and me to settle things,"

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

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

Rias and the others exchanged glances and smiled back at me.

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

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