Tokyo Butei High School, Assault Department Building.

On the rooftop of this building, which has a helicopter pad, Jeanne stood in full armor, holding the Holy Sword. Her silver hair fluttered in the wind, and her expression was unusually solemn as she kept her eyes fixed on the bomber hovering above Academy Island.

Besides Jeanne, there was also one other person here.

That was Reki, silently standing to the side with a sniper rifle in her hand.

"Bang————!"

The loud sound of the door being slammed open echoed through the rooftop.

Immediately, Fang Li and Aria walked in, one leisurely and the other with a commanding presence.

"Have you arrived?"

Jeanne turned her gaze towards them.

Reki also raised his head, looking at Fang Li and Aria.

Seeing Reki, Aria expressed some surprise.

"You're here too?"

This question was somewhat redundant.

After all, Reki was also a member of Deen and represented the entire Ulus tribe, participating in the Far East Warfare, so it was natural for him to be here.

Of course, there was more to Reki's presence than just this reason.

"Originally, Reki was the first to spot the bomber," Jeanne explained. "If not for Reki's exceptional vision and sense, we might not have even known when we'd be bombed, and we'd be left without a place to be buried."

Hearing this, Reki spoke up. "The wind told me."

Reki looked at Fang Li and said.

"There is an 'Oni' approaching."

————"Oni."

Reki's words made Fang Li's eyes flicker slightly as he fell into silence.

"Oni?" Aria asked feeling puzzled. After a moment of hesitation, she added, "Could it be that besides Vlad and Hilda, another Vampire is behind this?"

At these words, a voice immediately emerged from Fang Li's shadow.

"No way!"

The sudden voice seemed to startle Aria.

Only Jeanne and Reki seemed to sense something, glancing at Fang Li's shadow.

However, no further sounds came from the shadow.

Because, before that, Fang Li had already drawn everyone's attention.

"What's the situation?" Fang Li asked Jeanne. "Has the defense team established communication with the bomber?"

"Not yet." Jeanne shook her head and replied. "There has been no response from their side. If there were any, my subordinates who went to the Ministry of Defense would have notified me."

"They're still refusing to respond?" Aria's voice grew more agitated. "What are they planning? Could it be that they really intend to bomb Academy Island?"

"If that were the case, they would have acted long ago," Jeanne said, somewhat frustrated. "It's been over ten minutes since the bomber appeared, yet it's only been hovering over Academy Island, neither attacking nor responding to communications. We have no idea what their plan is."

It was precisely because of this that the Ministry of Defense seemed hesitant to take any drastic actions, fearing that the bomber might actually start dropping bombs and sink Academy Island.

As a result, the defense fighters could only continue to circle around Academy Island with the bomber, maintaining a stalemate.

"What if the bomber isn't even armed?" Aria suggested. "Maybe Grenada (servant) is just using it as a transport?"

"That's not impossible," Jeanne said seriously. "If that's the case, then the only reason for not allowing the bomber to land would be…"

And this reason was directly stated by Fang Li.

"That's because the bomber cannot land." Fang Li said indifferently. "Academy Island has been covered with a barrier set up by Shirayuki and Tamamo."

A barrier to repel evil spirits.

A barrier that prevents supernatural beings from entering.

Reki had mentioned that the approaching enemy was an 'Oni'.

So, the issue wasn't that they were unwilling to land, but that they simply couldn't.

"Then what are we waiting for?" Aria immediately drew her twin guns, speaking in an imposing manner. "Let's raid them directly and capture the enemy. I'll have the Logi team prepare a helicopter for us."

"No." Jeanne immediately disagreed. "If our guess is wrong and the bomber is actually armed, our actions would be like lighting a fuse, and it could be disastrous."

"Then what should we do?" Aria asked, somewhat frustrated. "We can't just keep watching here, can we?"

Fang Li answered this question.

"Just watching here is indeed frustrating." Fang Li said. "So, you stay here, and I'll go up and check it out."

Without giving the others time to respond, Fang Li turned around and took off.

"Whoosh————!"

In the next moment, Fang Li's figure shot up into the sky like a meteor, moving toward the direction of the bomber at an astonishing speed.

"Wait…?!"

Aria, Reki, and Jeanne all reacted with varying degrees of shock.

However, by the time they realized what was happening, it was already too late.

The meteor that had shot into the sky soon arrived above the bomber.

It then descended.

...

"Hū————!"

The howling gale seemed as if it could tear a person apart, raging fiercely.

But for Fang Li, it was merely a trifling matter.

"The storm stirred up by Arcueid's Moon Fall was much more terrifying than this."

At least, back then, Fang Li had sacrificed his defense, his body was thrown into chaos, with his internal organs nearly shattered. If Arcueid hadn't channeled power into him, he would have been dead long ago.

Compared to that storm, the current gale was nothing.

Thus, Fang Li landed on the bomber, braving the howling wind, and looked forward.

There, a door leading to the cabin was slowly opening.

Soon after, three figures emerged from inside.

From Fang Li's vantage point, he could see these people:

First to emerge was a silver-haired girl.

As this silver-haired girl stepped out of the cabin, the howling gale suddenly subsided, as if suppressed by an invisible force, and the wind seemed to be diverted away from the bomber, blowing past it on either side.

The second figure to appear was a girl in a black sailor suit with a slender figure and a pair of short horns on her head.

This young girl wore a katana at her waist and seemed frail, yet her steps were light and silent, making no sound at all.

The third figure was a tall, muscular woman dressed in African-style garments, wielding a massive iron club and an extraordinary aura emanated from her body.
