Kokabiel vs Kisuke

"What!? No!?" Sona immediately rejected her words and faced Kisuke, "I don't why Yoruichi doesn't want to help, but if you're going to get involved in this, then I won't allow it! Although you're pretty strong for a human, I can't let you against that guy!" Sona then grabbed Kisuke's kimono, "So, please... Escape... I don't want any harm coming to you because of my mistake..."

At this point, Sona's concern is only his safety and how not to get involved with their problem. Kisuke, in response, only smiled wryly and wiped the tears that are threatening to fall from her eyes while patting her head. He then faced Yoruichi, "Is this really how they see me?"

"It's your fault. No other reason." Yoruichi chuckled at his question.

Everyone is confused at what they are talking about but it seems that the newcomers aren't nervous at all since they can still laugh. So looked up to him and asked, "What do you mean...?"

"Well... Just watch." Kisuke then separated from her and walked while facing Kokabiel who is still silently watching his movements. He already dispelled the giant spear of light in his hand long ago.

"Wait! Where are you going!?" Sona tried to stop him but found herself frozen in place, '!?'

"Sona-chan, it seems that you're misunderstanding something..." Yoruichi grinned at the unmoving Sona.

"Misunderstanding?"

"Yes... It's true that I'm on a different level than Kisuke."

"Then why are you not stopping him from doing something so reckless!?"

"Listen... When I said I'm on a different level, I meant I'm way below him."

Before everyone could process Yoruichi's words, Kisuke started talking to Kokabiel, "How kind of you to just let us talk like that."

"Hmmph. I just amused on the way you teleported. Did you think that you'll be able to bluff your way out with that kind of show?" Kokabiel sneered at him. He's referring to Kisuke's Senkaimon.

"No no no... I wouldn't bluff my way out. In fact, I won't let you escape." Kisuke sported a large grin and his eyes were flashing ominous lights.

Kokabiel already knew that he shouldn't underestimate his opponent after going against Aika so he readied himself. Despite that, however, the pride in his bone as a high ranking Fallen Angel couldn't be suppressed, "Hooh... So you're saying that I'll be the one escaping? I'd like to see you try."

"With pleasure~." Kisuke then suddenly disappeared, but unlike Aika, who would leave a bunch of clues where she would be landing and the fact that Kisuke's Flash Step is already polished, Kokabiel wasn't able to react despite watching his surroundings carefully. Kokabiel suddenly found the sole of wooden sandals in front of his face and he was kicked away so hard that his face deformed, '!?'

Kokabiel only stopped when he hit the barrier over the school and could only let out screams of pain and yells of rage, "Ahhh!!! You bastard!!!"

"Now, now. I'm not yet done." Kisuke is standing on air where Kokabiel is previously floating, "This blade of mine wants to play, you see. And I'd really like it if you can accompany her." Kisuke pulled out the blade from his cane. And as if he's declaring to the world, Kisuke muttered in a commanding tone, "Okiro(Awaken), Benihime(Crimson Princess)"

Kisuke's cane with a hidden blade suddenly transformed into a sleek, medium-sized sword. It has a crimson tassel dangles on the end of the hilt, which has a gentle decorative bend. Instead of a crossguard, there is a U-shaped decoration covers the first three or four inches of blade, with a flower petal design right as it meets the string-crossguard. It also has a red decorative string wrapped thrice around the hilt, with a three-loop bow on one side and a folded paper decoration on the other. Benihime's blade is straight and slim, though somewhat short, with the tip ending in a slanted razor-like edge instead of being tapered to a point.

Along with his sword's transformation, Kisuke stopped holding in his Reiatsu-Ki and just let it out naturally. Similar to Aika, the aura around Kisuke also suddenly changed to that of a non-human, but this time, the pressure he is emitting is so heavy that the Devils could only barely breath. Even if they want to say something, they couldn't voice out their thoughts. Sona and rest could only look at him in shock and their minds blanked out. Kokabiel, on the other hand, stopped screaming and started to get nervous as he stares at Kisuke. Fear is slowly taking root in his heart, 'What's that!? What the hell is that!? Similar to that abnormal human!? But this is so much dangerous! And even if face one of the Devil Kings, I wouldn't get this nervous! Who is he!? Where did he come from!?' Unbeknown to him, Kisuke's spiritual pressure is weighing down directly on his soul.

"What's the matter? Cat got your tongue?" The surges of wind eased down, but the heavy atmosphere is still around Kisuke, threatening to suffocate anyone who comes close.

Kokabiel gritted his teeth and suppressed his fears, 'It might only be the aura he's emitting is incredibly unusual and I'm instinctively fearing it, but that doesn't mean he stronger than me. And besides, I still have a trump card... I prepared it for the Devil Kings... But if my life is any danger, then I won't hesitate to use it. I can escape anything and someone is already expecting me to their side...'

Since he already gathered his Holy Power once this evening, gathering it again to rematerialize the gigantic spear of light, Kokabiel didn't wait for him to attack and threw the spear in Kisuke's direction with all of his strength. He also made sure that the path of his attack will hit the Devils behind him if he decided to evade with his unbelievable speed, "Die!"

"Kisuke!!!" Seeing this, Sona managed to find a strength to shout at him in concern.

"Don't worry about it him, girl. Just watch." The cat tried to ease her concerns but it didn't work. And just like Yoruichi said, everyone watched closely.

Kisuke's grinning expression didn't change and he only raised his blade in front of him before saying, "Chikasumi no Tate(Blood Mist Shield)." A hexagon-shaped crimson barrier formed in front of his blade.

In no time, the giant spear of light capable of destroying the whole town hit the crimson barrier. From the contact, a large shockwave spreads that destroyed the remaining school buildings and flattening the ground. Yoruichi has to form a shield around them so that the Devils and Exorcist won't get hurt.

Kokabiel was shocked by how strong Kisuke's instantly formed barrier that it was able to block his attack. However, he isn't very worried as he can tell that his barrier is starting to crack all over and Kisuke himself is being pushed back. The grin on his face already transformed into a serious expression.

'I didn't think that it would be this strong. I'm pretty good at Reiatsu control. In my previous world, I only has to study the variations of it, but in this world, all sorts of power systems with all sorts of energy sources are in place. I ended up underestimating Holy Power which is under Mana... I almost forgot that Mana and Reiatsu are on the same level and I would also need a good amount of time to study its variation. Good thing this happened.' Kisuke analyzed the spear which is currently breaking his barrier and reassessed its power. Pinpointing its weakness, Kisuke charged his Reiatsu-Ki on Benihime while also keeping the shield active. In the past, he can only do one technique at a time, but after studying Ki and communicating more with Benihime, he was able to remove that limitation to some extent.

Kokabiel rejoiced as even though the spear already weakened considerable, his barrier is also about to break. But before he could smugly declare himself as the victor, he was frozen in his place.

"Nake, Benihime(Sing, Crimson Princess)!" With his shout, the moment that his crimson barrier broke and the spear went through, Kisuke's blade released a large arc of crimson energy effectively deflecting the spear upwards. The spear went through the barrier over the school easily and it disappeared in the night sky.

"What!?" Kokabiel's strongest magic was defeated, 'This is bad! He's more dangerous than I thought.' Without further thought, Kokabiel released his trump card.
