The under-construction area behind the popular Aquarium.
For some reason, the construction company temporarily suspended operations, making the site deserted.
However, a certain hall, which should have been off-limits and empty, was now bustling.
The blonde girl in a nun's habit—Asia Argento—was surrounded.
The three people who jumped down from above had expressions of finally obtaining a treasure, appearing quite excited.
Realizing she was in danger, Asia looked at Father Freed, who had brought her here.
She hoped this was also part of Father Freed's plan, and not a trap to deceive her.
"These people... they're all Fallen Angels! Father Freed!"
"Ah, yes, I know, otherwise I wouldn't have contacted them."

Such a reply plunged Asia into despair.
Because it meant that Freed was colluding with these Fallen Angels.
"I know very well, Asia, the power you possess! The power to heal others is of great value!"
"Are you saying that's why, Father Freed... you plan to cooperate with these people?! This is betraying what we once..."
"Shut up!"
Freed raised his voice, roaring for Aixi to shut her mouth.
Frightened by him, Aixi retreated backward, losing her balance and falling to the ground.
"I, I've had enough of my life until now. If I had stronger power, I wouldn't be manipulated by those guys."
Saying this, Freed approached Asia.
The three Fallen Angels who had just arrived interrupted the conversation.
One of them stood in front of Freed.
"Alright, alright, Freed, since you've fulfilled our cooperation requirements, you'll certainly receive a reasonable reward. What's truly important now is to transfer her to another place, and then... extract the Sacred Gear she possesses."
Upon hearing this, another person also said with a smile,
"Yes, our young lady is quite valuable, at least for now, so we can't let her get hurt."
Freed, who had been stopped, snorted.
He looked at Asia again.
"Take her away, and complete your plan as soon as possible."
"No problem."
The third Fallen Angel agreed, then turned to the nun who had been betrayed by her companion.
Looking at the Fallen Angels surrounding her, Asia's heart was filled only with despair.
What to do?
There was no answer to the question in her mind.
Because she currently had no power to protect herself!
If... if that person were here...!
If Mister Bai Li-kun were here!
Seeking help from others might be a sign of weakness, but Asia only hoped for a miracle!
Clang!
Her prayer was interrupted.
An empty bottle was kicked by someone, rolling and colliding with the wall.
Asia and the others all looked to the side.
Huh?!
It's Bai Li-kun!
Asia saw Bai Li-kun, accompanied by a girl, appear before her!
She bit her lip, confirming she wasn't dreaming!
The person who had helped her in the past had appeared again!

"Sorry."
Sakurajima Mai, holding the empty bottle, scratched her head in embarrassment.
"It's fine. I didn't ask you to use that Power of Fate immediately anyway."
"Would a surprise attack have been better?"
"Direct confrontation is also a method. These guys… can be used for practice."
Bai Li-kun and Sakurajima Mai chatted leisurely on one side of the hall as if nothing was happening.
The Fallen Angels, not expecting outsiders, immediately glared at Freed.
"Why are you looking at me? I observed carefully before coming here, confirming I wasn't followed."
"That explanation is useless now."
One of the Fallen Angels sneered.
Freed, looking displeased, then looked at the strangers who had suddenly appeared.
"Who are you? Why are you here?"
Bai Li-kun, who was questioned, did not answer immediately.
Instead, he calmly surveyed the situation.
On the left was Asia.
On the right were… besides Father Freed who had just asked the question, there were three other people.
Bai Li-kun quickly remembered the names of these guys.
They were all companions of the Fallen Angel Raynare.
The blue-haired tall and mature woman was named Kalawarner;
The golden-haired twin-tailed loli beside her was named Mittelt;
The last one, an uncle wearing a thick coat and a bowler hat, was Dohnaseek.
"You guys…"
Bai Li-kun ignored the Father who had just asked the question and turned to look at the three Fallen Angels.
"Raynare didn't come?"
This question made the expressions of the three Fallen Angels change.
Among them, the golden-haired loli, Mittelt, responded,
"How do you know that name…"
"Isn't she your leader?"
"Huh? Who made her the leader? Besides, she has nothing to do with us."
Is this also a point where the plot changes?
Bai Li-kun, stroking his chin, didn't think too much. Instead, he showed a gentle smile and looked at Asia.
"Miss Aixi, we meet again."
"Mr. Bai Li-kun…!"
"Before explaining the details, let's solve the problem first."
Bai Li-kun's gaze then fell on Sakurajima Mai.
"Go, Mai-chan."
"Who's Mai-chan, I say! And… what's your relationship with that golden-haired girl? I've never heard of it!"
"I'll explain later."
"Honestly!"
Although Sakurajima Mai complained, she was still very obedient.
She stood in front of Bai Li-kun as arranged, confronting the three Fallen Angels and one Father.
"I thought you would be uneasy."
"Because Bai Li-kun is behind me."
Sakurajima Mai explained why she wasn't afraid.
She also wanted to become stronger, to improve her strength.
And this battle was a great opportunity.
No longer those strange evil spirits, but strange Fallen Angels and an angry Father.
"Although I don't know who you are, if we're going to fight, I won't back down."
With Bai Li-kun as her backing, Sakurajima Mai had enough courage.
Hearing her say that, Freed Sellzen burst into laughter.
"Hahaha! How ridiculous! Where did this stinking woman come from! She actually thinks she can win!"
Freed raised his blade and pointed the handgun in his other hand at Sakurajima Mai.
"Come on! I'll let you taste true salvation!"
