Chapter 180: He Might Become the New God of the Bible
The surprise attack plan of the Old Satan Faction and the Khaos Brigade was to kill at least one of the three faction leaders, causing the peace conference to collapse.
This plan failed due to the deaths of Katerea and Kokabiel, along with the White Dragon Emperor's unknown fate.
Although Katerea also received a massive power boost, unfortunately, she couldn't withstand the power enhanced by the Sacred Gear Azazel had developed himself, and was directly obliterated by the spear of light.
As for her subordinates, they were even less of a challenge and were effortlessly swept away.
Rias now had a particularly troublesome matter on her hands: her ancestor had instructed her to arrange a student identity at this school, as she would frequently attend classes here in the future.
What shocked Rias even more was that her ancestor had learned that Sona, Tsubaki, and Akeno had all become one of the Seventy-Two Demon Gods.
The reason she knew was that her ancestor had also become one of them.
After her upgrade, Rias's ancestor far surpassed their previous ancestor and could confirm the three of them through a kind of sensing, rather than being informed by someone else.
As for when the ancestor had become one, it was right after Kokabiel was defeated yesterday—the ancestor had emerged and was immediately invited.
Although Rias had wanted to stay and see what would happen at the time, she remembered that one of her servants was still captured and Grayfia had already locked onto the location, so she had no choice but to rush over with Sona and the others to deal with the situation there.
At the same time, she hoped that no conflict would break out between the two sides—and indeed, no conflict occurred. Instead, her ancestor was recruited into the group.
So, Rias was especially curious about how her ancestor had agreed to join.
However, with the ancestor's inclusion, Rias breathed a sigh of relief, because with this ancestor taking the lead, her brother wouldn't be able to question her as easily.
"Lady Runeas has joined too, and she directly reached the level of a Chief God~"
In the student council room, Sona murmured in a daze, still finding the events of the weekend hard to believe.
So, she was also considering whether to recruit her sister to join.
After all, the three Chief Gods from another world and their subordinates were far too powerful, and she worried that if her sister suddenly encountered them, she might be killed due to insufficient strength.
"How is Gasper doing now?"
"No problems"
Rias sighed in response.
Gasper Vladi was another one of her servants, but this child was extremely timid and afraid of strangers, having been sealed in a room in the old school building all along.
The so-called sealing wasn't about completely confining the child; rather, the child couldn't control his Sacred Gear. If he wasn't careful, he would unconsciously activate it, causing time to stop, which would cause trouble. That's why he was sealed in that room.
Only in the evening would the seal be partially lifted, allowing him to come out and move around freely.
Unfortunately, this super shut-in child, traumatized psychologically, refused to interact with the outside world, unwilling to come out, and stayed holed up in his room every day.
This time, however, Rias couldn't let him be so willful anymore. She forced him out and had Kiba train him properly.
Knock knock~!
A knocking sound.
"Come in"
As Sona said this, the student council room door opened, and in walked a girl who made the two of them frown slightly—it was the Holy Sword Wielder from the Church.
The Holy Sword Wielder named Xenovia Quarta had stayed behind at this school as a student, while the other Holy Sword Wielder, Irina Shidou, had taken the shrine maiden back to the Church.
"Still hasn't woken up?"
"No"
Xenovia responded flatly to the student council president's question.
During Azazel and Katerea's confrontation, that shrine maiden suddenly fell into slumber again for some unknown reason.
Therefore, more specific details about the final battle between humans and gods on the other side couldn't be obtained from her.
Afterward, Xenovia approached Rias.
"Who is he?"
Xenovia showed a photo before her eyes and questioned.
"Him? He's just the new PE teacher at school."
"Don't play dumb!!!"
Xenovia furrowed her brows tightly.
Her main reason for staying was to accept Archangel Michael's commission to investigate this man's information.
According to what Michael revealed, this person might be related to King Solomon.
Although his appearance differed somewhat from Michael's recollection—possibly as a disguise—he might very well be the resurrected King Solomon himself.
Thus, upon hearing this news, Xenovia was greatly shaken.
God had died, yet the Son of God was resurrected?
Moreover, he possessed such immense power and seemed intent on reestablishing the Seventy-Two Demon Gods.
These Seventy-Two Demon Gods were different from the Seventy-Two Pillars of Demons; they could be considered existences higher than the original devils.
This demonstrated how powerful King Solomon was, far exceeding Michael's understanding.
It might also indicate one thing: King Solomon might have inherited a portion of the power of the deceased God, and his reappearance was likely arranged by God foreseeing future crises.
Therefore, King Solomon might also take over God's position and become the new God of the Bible.
As for why he didn't contact the Church, Michael believed it was because he was disappointed with the angelic Church.
For failing to protect God.
However, the fact that he sought out devils was something Xenovia found hard to accept.
God's death could also be said to be related to devils!
"He really is just the new PE teacher."
Rias continued with a smiling reply, causing the other to stare at her intently for a moment before leaving without another word.
Huh, was she going straight to find him?
"I'll go check on her."
After leaving these words, Rias also exited the student council room and followed Xenovia.
However, she noticed that Xenovia didn't seem to be looking for him but was instead wandering around the school as if bored.
As if sensing she was being followed, Xenovia suddenly turned around, but before she could see her, Rias stepped back and hid her body around the corner.
But as she stepped back, she bumped into someone behind her. Turning her head, she met that smiling face—so close that her cheeks flushed slightly.
"What are you doing, Rias?"
"Nothing, Renji-sensei."
"Perfect timing, come with me. It's ready."
"Huh?"
Rias was momentarily stunned before understanding.
Was it finally her turn?
