"What!?"
Kokabiel felt the power in his body turn sluggish, his eyes nearly popping out.
This is… Immortal Qi!?
Since when did Kuoh Town produce a mongoose that could actually hurt him?
Kokabiel was shocked to find that everyone here could hurt him! In other words, each of them at least had so ans to temporarily raise their attack power to the Maou class?
This is Kuoh Town, for crying out loud!?
…
Under the siege of the girls, Kokabiel was flustered and on the back foot, barely parrying.
[Everyone, aim at the base of Kokabiel's wings—the common weak point of all Fallen Angels!] Xenovia relayed over the team comms.
Wings are where a Fallen Angel's power converges; they are the Fallen Angel's strongest part.
In the original storyline, the Maou-class Fallen Angel Kokabiel could use his wings to easily block slashes from the Holy-Demonic Sword and the Holy Sword Durandal[see the strength of the Fallen Angels' ten tribes' wings].
However strong they are, Fallen Angels' wings are not without flaws.
The base of the wings is the weak point!
Once the wing bases are damaged, it not only affects attacks and defenses that rely on the wings, but also disrupts the flow of power inside the body!
Kokabiel's power was already being impeded by Immortal Qi. If his wings were injured on top of that, it would basically be his defeat!
…
"Hm!? Not good!"
Kokabiel noticed their shift in target and realized they were aiming for his wing bases. He imdiately panicked a little.
If it were before, he couldn't care less—he could give them twenty-nine free hacks and they still wouldn't cut through.
But now… he really did have to guard his weak point!
"In that case—this is the only way!"
Kokabiel pulled out a virtual chip and crushed it hard!
The virtual chip turned into dreamlike motes of light that rged into Kokabiel's body, and his aura skyrocketed in an instant!
As a fanatic warmonger bent on starting a war, Kokabiel naturally wanted to raise his strength. So he'd spent a fortune to acquire an "Evolution Core."
Of course, he had bought it… but out of personal pride, he had never used it.
He was a noble Fallen Angel, a survivor of the Three Factions War—how could he so casually accept a breakthrough from the Tyrant True Lord?
Unfortunately, circumstances overpower pride. Faced with death if he held back any longer, Kokabiel could only choose to use the Evolution Core!
"Boom!"
Extrely pure light power erupted, blasting the girls away.
"That's… the kind of enemy Akuto-kun ntioned!"
As the senior retainer here, Asia knew of the Evolution Core's existence.
"Akuto-kun told his retainers that whenever we encounter an enemy using an Evolution Core in battle, we should leave it to him."
"Everyone… withdraw as planned!"
They'd fought this long and no one had co out to help Kokabiel—aning the enemy was, in all likelihood, only Kokabiel alone.
Having probed his depth, they no longer had to keep fighting.
…
At Asia's command, the girls withdrew quickly according to plan.
Naturally, Kokabiel wasn't going to let them go.
To defeat these girls he'd even thrown away the pride befitting a noble Fallen Angel!
…
Thus Kokabiel chased Asia's group all the way down.
And then he discovered sothing even more infuriating.
Even with his strength elevated to super-Maou class, he still couldn't inflict effective damage on Asia!
Damn it! Where did this blonde monster co from?
She might lack offensive power, but her terrifying defense and healing were downright despair-inducing!
"At this point, I have to incapacitate this Sacred Gear user first. If she links up with Sai Akuto Leviathan, then even as a Twelve-Winged Fallen Angel post-evolution, I'll et my end sooner or later!"
Realizing this, Kokabiel struck at Asia even more relentlessly.
…
Very soon, Kokabiel saw hope.
On the road toward Kuoh Academy, Asia's aura grew weaker and weaker—to the point she could no longer even maintain her Balance Breaker armor!
"As expected, Sacred Gears are unreliable. Combat power that can't be maintained—how could that possibly be used to 'protect Asia'!?"
"That bastard Azazel—why pour so many resources into Sacred Gear R&D!?"
After venting, Kokabiel strode into the faintly uncanny Kuoh Academy without a second thought.
To him, there was no better opportunity.
If that blonde girl recovered and then joined up with Sai Akuto and these girls to attack together, then even with the Evolution Core, his chances would be grim!
…
Kokabiel's judgnt wasn't wrong.
Unfortunately for him, he didn't know Asia had long since been able to maintain her Balance Breaker for extended periods. Her "inability" was just bait to draw him into Kuoh Academy.
Nor did he expect that even with the Evolution Core, he had no chance of surviving inside this "dungeon" that Kuoh Academy had beco.
At the academy's current difficulty, forget Kokabiel—even if Azazel himself ca, he'd be buried under the retainer swarm led by Akuto.
"Hm?"
The instant he stepped into Kuoh Academy, Kokabiel felt a chill and snapped his gaze skyward!
Overhead, a barrier formation—its foundations already complete—instantly wrapped the area in a pocket space!
"A trap!"
The mont he realized it, erald dragon light flashed across the sky!
[Welsh Dragon — Balance Breaker!]
[Balance Breaker — 'Red Dragon Emperor's Armor'! (Boosted Gear Scale Mail)]
The armor donned in an instant. Akuto plumted from the sky at incredible speed!
Divine Domain Kick Technique — Flying Kick!
"Thud!"
A mont later, the towering Kokabiel turned into three crows crashing to the ground.
As he fell, Akuto's ten demonic wings bound Kokabiel's twelve Fallen wings all at once.
Then Akuto seized two of them and heaved violently in opposite directions!
"Riiiip!"
With brutish force, a pair of black wings was torn clean off Kokabiel!
"Uwaaaah! It hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts! ..."
"You're… Sai Akuto Leviathan!?"
Kokabiel could clearly feel Akuto's power—power that even surpassed the Fallen Governor Azazel!
There was no ti to ask why or how. He wanted only to run.
Of course, in his current state, even escape was a luxury.
"Pfft—"
A golden "Spear That Pierces the World" skewered Kokabiel's super-Maou-class-hardened body with ease.
Even without invoking its 'against the world' authority, in terms of holy power alone, the Spear That Pierces the World possessed apex sanctity!
"What weapon is… that?"
Kokabiel didn't even see what it was before total suppression by holy power robbed him of all strength!
"Rip rip rip rip!"
After casually plucking out all of Kokabiel's wings, Akuto heard the system chi.

...
"Hm? Multitasking Mind? That's exactly what I need right now."
Though Akuto prided himself on his prodigious learning, absorbing the God of the Bible's near-Dragon-God-tier, seemingly endless knowledge still demanded too much ti.
In theory Akuto had fivefold training ti, and he could briefly stop ti in dungeon worlds; he could even shave off ti spent in bed. Even so, everything still felt too urgent.
Knowing the God of the Bible was sniped precisely for being too strong left Akuto with lingering dread toward the EXE world.
…
As Akuto secured Kokabiel, soone noticed the girls standing by the doorway of the old school building.
Yumi Kiba stared at those all-too-familiar figures, doubting reality.
"Akuto-sama, this is…?"
If she wasn't mistaken, these were her forr companions.
"Yumi! It's been so long!"
Tosca rushed over and hugged Yumi Kiba tight, tears of reunion spilling down.
"Tosca, why did you grow so much?"
Tears in her eyes, Yumi asked in puzzlent.
The others still looked like boys and girls—tender, youthful. Tosca alone had grown into a poised, graceful young lady.
"Ah? About that…"
Wiping her tears, Tosca explained why she was different from the others.
Through Tosca's explanation, Yumi finally understood what had happened.
If she rembered correctly, Tosca had indeed been killed by a researcher after failing to withstand the torture of the experints.
But in truth, she had only been gravely wounded—on the brink of death, not actually dead.
At death's door, a sturdy barrier-type Sacred Gear awakened inside her, leaving Balpa and the other researchers unable to act against her and forcing them to seal her in a chamber in a feigned-death state.
Later, Akuto found her—and saved her.
