After everyone finished breakfast in a somewhat strange atmosphere, they headed off to school together.

However, this peaceful routine didn't last long. One day, while I was in class, I suddenly received a message from Azazel.

"Kyoya, we've received word that the Hero Faction of the Khaos Brigade has kidnapped the Kyoto Youkai General. We're currently tied up trying to deal with the Primordial Goddess of the Night. Could you..."

Before Azazel could finish, I already knew the whole story and interrupted him directly.

"I already know their objective. Leave the rest to me. Don't worry about it!"

Afterward, I planned to inform Rias first before heading to Kyoto.

'To think Cao Cao and his crew would kidnap Yasaka even before the school trip. This must be another change in the plot due to my intervention.'

Along the way, my eyes flickered, lost in thought.

———

"Everyone, I just received a message from Azazel. The Khaos Brigade has attacked Kyoto and kidnapped the Youkai General, Yasaka. I need to make a trip there."

As soon as I arrived at the Occult Research Club, I blurted this out.

"What?!"

"Kidnapped the Kyoto Youkai General?!"

"The Khaos Brigade again?!"

"....."

Hearing this, everyone's pupils constricted.

Currently being pursued by the Three Factions and Asgard, yet they still had the nerve to launch a terrorist attack?

"But why would the Khaos Brigade attack Kyoto and kidnap the Youkai General?" Rias couldn't help but feel a bit puzzled.

"They probably intend to use the city's ley lines and the Nine-Tails' power to summon the Great Red and carry out some nefarious plot,"

I stated directly, not bothering to hide the truth.

Hiss——!!!

Hearing this, Rias, Akeno, and the others all gasped, their faces paling in shock.

Trying to summon Great Red? The Khaos Brigade has grand ambitions indeed!

"Don't worry. I can easily resolve this problem!" I said with a smile.

Rias, Akeno and the others believed me implicitly.

"In that case, Kyoya, please return quickly," Rias said softly.

"Mm!"

I nodded, then used Spatial Magic.

My figure vanished from the Occult Research Club, teleporting to the skies above Kyoto.

——

——

Arriving in Kyoto, I immediately detected numerous Sign-in characters through the system.

Especially those few Black markers clustered together.

Looks like that's Cao Cao's Hero Faction!

Right now, I wasn't in a hurry to deal with Cao Cao and the others.

I teleported to a mountain forest and, without any concealment, released my majestic Dragon aura.

After my Draconic aura covered the entire mountain forest, numerous figures appeared within, quickly rushing towards my location.

In just a moment, various Youkai of different shapes and sizes appeared, completely surrounding me.

Then, a petite and adorable little Loli emerged.

She had flowing golden hair, shimmering like sunlight, captivating golden eyes, and skin as white as snow, as delicate as jade. She wore a red and white Miko outfit and wooden sandals.

Her delicate beast ears and nine fluffy fox tails swayed gently as she walked, instantly hitting all my XP buttons.

Although she was only in her early teens and underage, her fox Youkai characteristics were evident—a blend of cuteness and subtle charm.

She was different from Koneko, perhaps more like a combination of Kuroka and Koneko.

However, she currently looked somewhat dispirited, her pretty face etched with deep sorrow.

It was probably due to her mother's disappearance.

——

——

"Who are you? What is your purpose in coming to our Youkai territory?!" Kunou stared fixedly at me, her words filled with vigilance.

The aura I emanated far surpassed even that of her mother, Yasaka.

Now, with her mother missing, an unidentified individual with horrible strength had suddenly appeared in the Youkai territory—

Faced with this situation, Kunou, who was only eleven or twelve years old, felt overwhelmed.

"Hello, Kunou-chan. My name is Hibari Kyoya. I'm here to tell you your mother's whereabouts,"

I smiled, stating my purpose.

"Y-You know my mother's whereabouts?!"

Kunou was stunned, looking at me with astonishment mixed with a hint of suspicion.

"Princess Kunou, he... he seems to be Hibari Kyoya, the one who killed the Fallen Angel cadre Kokabiel and defeated the Two Heavenly Dragons!" At this moment, a Tengu beside her couldn't help but exclaim.

"What?!"

"He actually defeated the Two Heavenly Dragons… That's insane!"

"Isn't Hibari Kyoya the Wielder of Excalibur?!"

"....."

The other Youkai present were all shocked upon hearing this, murmuring amongst themselves.

When Kunou learned my identity, she also lowered her guard.

After all, the Wielder of Excalibur was chosen by the planet, he couldn't be a bad person...

"I'm so sorry! I shouldn't have doubted you—" Kunou blinked her golden eyes, her fox ears twitching slightly, looking utterly adorable.

"It's natural to be wary of strangers. There's no need to feel so guilty!"

I chuckled softly, subconsciously placing my hand on Kunou's head and ruffling her hair.

"!!!"

"Are you a pervert?! Touching someone's head right after meeting them!" Kunou's face flushed red. She quickly took a few steps back, puffing her cheeks and glaring at me.

"Uh... Sorry, sorry! Kunou-chan is just too cute. You remind me of someone back home, so I couldn't help myself..."

I scratched the back of my head, explaining somewhat awkwardly.

"Hmph... I'll forgive you this time!!"

Being suddenly patted on the head by someone of the opposite sex and called cute made Kunou's face burn even hotter.

"..."

Hearing this, I twitched my lips, speechless. Although I wanted to retort, I couldn't find any reason to.

Koneko, Asia, Ophis—even Holy-chan had all been patted on the head by me!

"By the way, do you really know my mother's whereabouts?" Kunou then snapped back to her senses and asked again anxiously.

"Your mother was attacked and kidnapped by the Hero Faction of the Khaos Brigade. Among them are three hosts of Sacred Gears and some descendants of ancient heroes." I didn't bother hiding anything and revealed the whole truth.

"Hiss..."

"Th-The Khaos Brigade attacked the Kyoto Youkai General?"

"The enemy is so strong... Wh-what should we do?"

"..."

For a moment, all the Youkai present were panicked, not knowing what to do.
