He’s late”It had been five hours since she had left him at school shortly after two, yet he still had not returned She rested her chin on the Lazy Bear cushi+on in her arms and puffed her cheeks outMicha chuckled as she stared at the rain pouring down out the“If you’re worried, you shouldn’t have left him in the first place”Micha sat down next to her“Just because you were reuard duty doesn’t mean you can’t accompany him”The woirl’s red hairAnge put on a lopsided frown and did not replyHe had not been told, but the alert level for Serpent’s Eye Possessor Fujita Mutsuki had been loweredHe no longer required a 24/7 bodyguard and siels knehat he was doing, he was permitted as much freedom as he wantedOne could say Mutsuki’s work atfriends with Machina of FeTUS and Lucia of the demons had paid offOf course, this had only been decided aanizations had not been informedThathiiven another special missionAt the uard, so she had not been abandoning her duty when she left him at school“If the observation tea with his friends If you’re that hungry, why not get some take-out?”The girl ignored the suggestion with a sulking look, so the older angel narrowed her eyes and laughedThen she looked outside again“But this rain worries me Did Mutsuki-kun take an umbrella with him today?”“He had one this ”“H shelter from the rain I wonder why he’s so late”Micha tilted her headAnge also looked out the hile pouting her lipsShe saw the sky du down even more rain than earlier in the day“Knowing that idiot, his uht have broken in the wind”She got up from the couch“Take-out would have a hard getting to us in this rain I’ll go find Stupid Mutsuki, so you stay here, Micha”She walked quickly to the front doorAnge had her back turned, but Micha caught a glimpse of her face fro“You need to be ”“…! Th-that is not-…”Ange turned back with her face an even brighter redHowever, her outburst of anger came to an abrupt end as she shut her mouth like normal“Once Metatron begins, I’ll have to say goodbye to him anyway”“…”“If I’ll never have another chance, it would be a shame to miss even that idiot’s bizarre creations”She leftMicha’s face stiffened as she watched her leaveThe usual enjoyel was nowhere to be seenAnge left the apartment with her own umbrella and a spare one for himIt was past seven With some help from the thick clouds, it was already quite dark outIt was a fairly windless typhoon, but they seerew nearly horizontal, so she would be quickly soaked even with the umbrellaAfter s of blue flame from her backShe wrapped her body in the two thousand degree flames A layer of air formed that deflected all of the raindrops that approached her Even if one did get close, it would be vaporized before it reached her(I guess I didn’t need two umbrellas after all)She laughed to herselfAn umbrella was relatively useless in this weather, so they would need to use her wings to remain dry on the way back In that case…“…”The two of them would only need the one umbrella“~~”She shook her head and her face grew oddly warm(He can just get soaked on the way back)That would be more enjoyable He was sure to tear up as the rain drenched hih at hisAnd then…“Heh heh”Her expression relaxed as she iined it and she followed the path back to school“C’ soaked over here”She suddenly heard a familiar voice in the rain“…”Her s toward her“You can loaded, can’t you? So let Mutsuki-kun and me have this one while you head home with that”“Negative Using Springloaded for personal matters is frowned upon”“Calm down, you two”Lucia had not had one, so the three of thele umbrellaMutsuki was in the ht, and Lucia was on the leftThe rain was blowing nearly horizontally, so all three of theless, so they were really just using the shared umbrella to flirtLucia cosMutsuki had enjoyed their earlier raw intercourse, but he enjoyed this too He could not stop s“…”When she ran across thee quietly closed her eyes“Ange?”
He tilted his head when he saw her near the park right next to the apartment“What is it? I was just on my way ba-…oh”He noticed the two uHe tried to move close, but…“FeTUS Witches Miss E…Ibekusa Machina”She spoke and his feet came to a stop when he saw the look on her faceShe always looked irritable and she would sometimes smile or look surprised, but he had never seen this look over the past two monthsIt reminded him of the lonely look of a lost child“I owe you one for warning me in advance of Black Cat’s attack”“Ange…?”“I will repay you for that now”Mutsuki frowned, but Ange paid him no heed and closed her umbrella“FeTUS stands in opposition to heaven’s co Adam It has been deterels will now use Metatron to exterminate your sanctuary…FeTUS Headquarters”“!”The girl spoke plainly and Machina also gave a look unusual for her: surpriseEven Lucia’s expression changed Mutsuki alone could not folloas being said“Metatron will be activated within thirty minutes of the present time”However, he could tell Ange was declaring war on FeTUS“Our target is your headquarters and any resistance would be futile If you wish to live, then run away”The angel turned her back and Mutsuki prepared to call out to stop her“No, Ange You know you can’t give advance warning of divine punishment”But another faels landed between hieThree were red-winged feels he had never seen before, but his eyes naturally focused on the angelic young nize“What is going on, Rapha-san? …What is this…Metatron?”A tremor filled the boy’s voice because he could tell this was serious Rapha only gave his usual gentle and somewhat cold smile and did not answer“————!”A moment later, Machina turned around and ran toward the schoolThe balance between huether before, but Mutsuki could clearly sense that it had fallen apart“Ange?”“…”She did not respondShe let go of the uht Before the handle could even clatter to the ground, the five angels took flightAt the very lastback at him over her shoulderUtterly dumbfounded, he turned to Lucia for help“What was that? What is going on?”Even Lucia’s behavior told his over with soether, but his expression remained tense“They’re using Metatron on a single huels must really feel cornered”“What is that? What is Metatron?”The derabbed his shoulders and shook hi rain pelted their headsLucia looked up and seemed unsure what to say for a while“Siels use”“A bo?”“I don’t know It varies from case to case”He brushed up the wet bangs plastered to his forehead“It was used to destroy the Tower of Babel and to wipe out Sodom and Gomorrah It also sunk the island of Atlantis and the continent known as Mu Including Agneya and the Arrows of Indra, about 90 of the world’s phenomena that symbolize God’s wrath were caused by Metatron”“You’re kidding…”On the upper end, it could sink a continent That was an uniinable scaleThe humans of FeTUS would certainly have the upper hand in a direct battle with angels, but what if a great calaan?Angels, deanizations held each other in check around Fujita MutsukiThe stale more stable, but now it had utterly collapsed
