"She and her little friends snuck into my home like rats, so I made sure to give them all the attention they could expect of such vermin." Kokabiel noted mockingly even as Asia began using Twilight Healing on the worst of Irina's wounds "Unfortunately for this one, it seems her friends ran off and left her behind to fend for themselves." 'So at the very least Kiba and Xenovia managed to get away...' Shirou deduced, transferring Irina to Tsubaki's care as Sona instructed her queen to take the Exorcist back to her home to heal her up, the Faker glaring up at Kokabiel alongside the two heiresses. "Well then?" Rias demanded, the Gremory heiress glaring imperiously up at the Fallen, as if his mere presence didn't fill her with understandable dread "You wanted my attention, Fallen Angel? You have it." "Oho, that's a nice look you have in your eyes." Kokabiel noted approvingly, his smile possessing a feral quality, as if he was barely restraining himself from lashing out "I wonder, will Sirzechs' shine as intensely after I've had my way with you and this little town?" "I'd heard the stories but clearly they do you more justice than you deserve if such insanity can spew from your lips." Rias muttered, her tone derisive "Do you mean to tell me you intend to restart the war between the Three Factions?" "In all honesty, I was hoping Michael himself would get involved after I stole the Excaliburs," Kokabiel admitted, his features lined with disgust "But it seems he only deemed me worthy of sending a weak Exorcist and two wet-behind-the-ears Holy Sword Wielders. And don't get me started on Azazel and Shemhazai," he spat in disgust, heedless of Shirou's look of alarm "those damned pacifists would sooner chop off their wings before they let a war interfere with their Sacred Gear Research..." "So you're saying your actions are against Azazel's will?" Sona noted, drawing Shirou's attention to her at the use of his caretaker's name "You must be bored indeed if you'd so openly defy your leader so readily." "Faugh! That milksop is no true leader!" Kokabiel spat, his disgust apparent "He'd rather waste the day away locked up researching whatever catches his interest or shacking up with whatever harlot catches his eye. The only way he'd care about any of this was if the opportunity presented itself that he could study Sacred Gears." "I'll never give you my Boosted Gear!" Issei proclaimed, clenching his armoured fist, the gem on the Red Dragon Emperor's gauntlet lighting up in preparation for an attack. "I could give a rat's ass about the damned thing." Kokabiel shot back mockingly, surprising the devils with his story "Azazel's the one you need to watch out for, he's such a fanatic when it comes to his collections." "If that's the case then what are you planning to do with the Excaliburs?" Rias demanded, glaring up at the Fallen Star of Heaven coldly despite the intensity of his feral smile "If you simply wanted a fight, you could have done so without them." "True. Cease fire or not, I hardly need a reason to kill devils and I certainly don't share Valper's infantile obsession with those relics." Kokabiel conceded, his tone insufferably smug "But as I said before, I'm not interested in a schoolyard brawl. I want a WAR, and the only way to do that would be to somehow get all Three Factions involved." He smiled then, a smile as terrifying as it was beautiful, a smile that promised nothing but the sweet release of death for those who possessed a true concept of mortality. "I think you'll agree there's no way Michael, Lucifer or Leviathan will be able to sit back and turn a blind eye when I use Heaven's precious Holy Swords to kill the Satans' beloved siblings and paint the town red with the blood of their mortal schoolmates." Post Kokabiel's Speech... Shirou shivered, eyeing the entity above him with the same trepidation with which he'd faced down Gilgamesh. While the Fallen lacked the haughty majesty of the King of Heroes, the condescending nature and the casualness with which he threatened to massacre thousands of innocent lives to sate his own desires was almost a dead ringer for the impossible 8th Servant's. The difference was, however, that Gilgamesh, as Overseer of Humanity, deemed modern man to be beneath his protection, mere mongrels that had grown fat off complacency and needed a good culling to bring them back to their true potential. Kokabiel, on the other hand, spoke of ending lives of people who had done him no wrong simply because he was bored. Even Gilgamesh, who was known as a tyrant by modern standards, had never been so flippant about taking a human life, though admittedly this was because the harshness of the times meant it was impossible for him to do so. Never in his wildest dreams would Emiya Shirou ever have anticipated sharing the same mind-set with the King of Heroes, but right now he was honestly starting to see why Gilgamesh had ended the Age of Gods if Monsters like this were the kind of thing he faced on a daily basis. "Isn't my boss the best?" Freed cackled insanely, clearly relishing the fact that he was working for someone just as twisted as he was "And people say 'I'M' fucked up!" he sneered, reaching into his cloak and drew another sword "Not that I care, since he gave me these cool toys to play with!" Shirou grimaced at the sight of the blades in the Exorcist's hands. Not from alarm, as he'd suspected the freak would be carrying more than one Excalibur by now, nor was it from stress as Unlimited Blade Works finished adding Rapidly and Transparency's sister-sword, Excalibur Nightmare: The Holy Sword of Illusion, to the Hill of swords. No, it was simply that weird, incessant feeling that crept over him every time he laid eyes on one of the 'Excaliburs'. ----------- If you want to read ahead by 50 Chapters from her you can visit my Patre-on. {P} {A} {T} {R} {E} {O} {N} seaʀᴄh thё nôvel_Fire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. /Playerfanfic
