28 Chapter 28(2/2)
Alex was shocked to hear it. The Holy Church spared Galilei.. because of his researches?! Alexander`s aura was getting more and more threatening, as his fury and righteous anger grew unprotected. He glared at Griselda and spoke once more.
"His work? His researches?!" Alex asked of her. "Do the heads of your Church know of what that bastard did? Or did they even care of the consequences of his actions at all?! Do you know, just how many children died in that wretched monastery, or how they`ve suffered, choking on phosgene and coughing out their own blood?! Did Heaven turn a blind eye?! ANSWER ME NOW OR I WILL KILL YOU!" Alex was ready to kill all three of them, when Xenovia and Irina stood up and drew their weapons out.
"We have no reason whatsoever to even speak with you, Lucifer." Xenovia stated. "And for threat to us, we shall bring the justice of God upon you now!" Destruction was ready for the swing and went for Lucifer.
"AMEN~!" Irina backed her friend up and her Mimic went for Alex.
Those girls didn`t even learn a single lesson here. In just one second, Xenovia and Irina found their throats at an alarmingly dangerous proximity from 6 Projected Lunari, all aiming for them and ready to at moment`s notice. And not only that, but while the Devils didn`t have the time to react, Alexander`s group certainly was ready for this event to happen. Arturia and Scathach momentarily placed themselves as Alex`s shields, Cu Chulainn and Medusa readied their weapons, positioning right of Alexander, aiming at Xenovia, with Cuhullin ready to strike the heart, while Medusa was going to go for the lungs. Medea in one instant created a bounded field around Alex and their friends, also casting rapid fire curses generators and binding spells. Kuroka`s sage arts were already placed, as the mist rolled out and was weakening the humans already. Ravel and Raynare prepared their Spears of Light and aimed at Irina, with Archer summoning up his blades and a dozen Projected swords behind all the Exorcists.
In all other words, Exorcists have lost this battle the moment they stepped into the house.
Griselda waved her hand and her girls simply sat, the weapons and spell remained in place. She spoke up once more.
"Chief Michael and the rest of the Heaven don`t know of Valper being alive." She confessed. "Michael called for his execution too, but Pope has decided to put his researches to use. You and the others were informed that he was executed."
Alexander only sighed and his aura decreased, as he spoke once more.
"And they call my grandfather a Devil." Alex ironically stated. "Your Pope is one conniving bloody bastard with the heart of greed and pride. I knew that I should`ve killed Valper back then."
And it was the time that Sona has decided to ask Alex a question that has been bugging her.
"Alex, mind if I ask you, why do you speak of that as if you have a connection to all this ordeal?"
Alex turned to Sona and answered.
"Connection? No, Sona, I don`t have any?connection?to Valper." Alex answered. "No, I am the man that is responsible for the destruction of Holy Sword Project 3 years ago."
