As soon as she saw her the ultimate angelic weapon attacked with the intensity of her roar
She was ruled by her primitive intellect and her wild instincts
It was kill or be killed The girl before her now was not just an obstacle like the previous walls machines and Witches
This was her archenemy who might just be able to take her life
She passed through the location of the destroyed door and charged forward with all her might
But her way was blocked by a golden magic circle just like the one Machina had used
She had broken the previous one with a single hand but this one did not break even after a full-body tackle
I had wondered what the legendary Metatron was but I did not expect a life form itself to be the weapon
Gbh Gyaahh
Purple lightning burst from the circle and pierced the girl’s body It did not leave a wound but the bright electricity wrapped around the girl’s glow blasted it backwards and elicited a scream from Ange That purple electricity consumed angel fire
But the girl’s fighting spirit had not dulled so she struggled inside the magic circle of golden
thread The girl named Alice sadly lowered her eyes
Poor girl
She then gave a look of scorn to the young man who stepped inside the room
After a glance toward Ange’s suffering Rapha looked around the room
There were no lights inside but Ange’s glow was enough of a light source to see every nook and cranny
They were underground yet the hall was larger than a soccer field
The stone floor was decorated with the patterns of fifty-three playing cards The only items inside were the giant rabbit and the large clock There was nothing else
However the rabbit and clock were not what drew the eye
It was the walls Rapha widened his eyes as he looked around at all four walls
So this is the core of what you humans have developed to prevent a Paradise Lost This is your sanctuary
The walls were covered in thick acrylic so the hall was surrounded by a tank filled with an unnaturally clear liquid that was not water
There were no fish swimming and no coral swaying inside
There were human bodies
They seemed to be soaked in preservative formaldehyde but they were not whole bodies
Women’s bodies from the stomach down to the thighs were lined up at even intervals
Rapha’s eyes shined brightly at the grotesque scene and someone answered him
Precisely Producing the Holy Grail is the one way of saving our civilization from our rivals in heaven This is mankind’s final fortress
Although the research data has already been removed so maybe we shouldn’t be calling it our sanctuary anymore
It was the two Witches from before Black Cat stuck her claws below the young man’s throat
If he moved she would kill him but the man’s smile remained
Well that just means we need to dispose of what was removed while we’re at it
Ghvvhh
Struck by lightning and unable to pass the magic circle Ange stopped struggling
But she had not given up The sun-like glow in her angled eyes grew brighter to indicate her unwavering hatred for all mankind
Her silver wings pendant floated up
Her divine sword is manifesting itself Be careful Miss A
Prominence
Miss C shouted a warning just as the girl grabbed the pendant and it transformed into a black sword taller than she was
Nova
The sword only retained its form for an instant
Flames surged down the center and became the golden flames of Metatron The heat was so great that the black sword burst and flames spewed from the hilt to create a sword of fire itself
Not even her weapon could withstand the intensity of the angel of death’s flames
Zwaahh
Miss A the greatest mind in the world abandoned her position of absolute advantage and jumped back based on instinct not logic
That ended up saving her life The flame sword sliced apart the inviolable magic circle so easily it might as well have been made of styrofoam
Miss A
The maid screamed and the girl looked at her left hand with a bitter smile
Her palm was burned black Not only had the anti-angel magic circle been sliced apart but the residual heat had surpassed the heat-reducing circuit
So a being who cast aside the Fruit of Knowledge will still use a tool that symbolizes knowledge
Miss Alice Arc licked her blackened wound like a tomboy treating a scrape
Heh heh I feel like all my six hundred odd years of supplying witches with knowledge have been denied
Vvvvvv Humansdestroy
And you have nearly forgotten how to speak
The girl brushed up her blonde hair with a bitter smile on her lips
O’clock activate Apply maximum interference to Jiyuuni Ange’s composition time
With that order red light filled the eyes of the giant stuffed rabbit that had been just been sitting there before
A mysterious phenomenon occurred inside the large clock it held The seconds hand had been accurately keeping the time but it began to shake as if its axis had shifted
The seconds hand shifted out of place First one second then two
Destroy
With no other apparent change Miss Arc ran straight toward Ange
She had no new weapon outside of the magic circle in her hands
Shaahh
