Simultaneously—within the Fraxinus warship—everyone fell into chaos due to this sudden turn of events.

"Confirming the situation. The sphere has visualized itself."

"The reiryoku value reflected is that of an Angel. Could that girl be a Spirit??"

"What the hell is going on?"

Seeing the incident exceed their expectations, Kotori immediately issued a command with a serious expression. "KYOUHEI!"

"Leave it to me!"

Kyouhei Kannazuki commanded everyone, deactivating the warship's invisibility function.

Consequently, the excess magic power on the warship was all transferred to the Yggdrasil Leaf.

"Yggdrasil Leaf, full launch!"

Following the command, a large number of blue light arrows were fired from the warship's tail, rushing towards the rampaging, randomly attacking Kerubiel below. These light arrows surrounded Kerubiel, weaving a golden barrier through continuous rotation.

"Rise!!!" With a shout from Kyouhei Kannazuki—

The golden barrier immediately radiated an even more dazzling brilliance. The next moment, it instantly sent Kerubiel flying into the sky.

However, this attack seemed to have no effect on Kerubiel. Instead, it seemed to have enraged it.

Not only did it launch a more ferocious attack, but its appearance also became even more terrifying and horrifying. The originally somewhat normal sphere's surroundings were instantly covered with countless crimson eyes.

Following that were countless blue lightning arrows pouring down.

———

"Seriously! Hiding and dodging is completely against my nature! Yuzuru, let's go!"

"Agreement. That's what I was thinking, Kaguya."

After the twin Spirits spoke, they both flew towards the sky.

Seeing this, the girls below also transformed into their Astral Dresses, preparing for battle.

"Metatron!"

"Zafkiel!"

"Sandalphon!"

"Yo, Yoshino, let's go too!"

"Mm~"

In an instant, all the girls rushed towards Kerubiel, engaging it in battle. Except for a certain useless NEET Spirit with no combat ability and no self-care ability...

"Waaah!!!"

Watching this intense battle scene, Nia immediately threw herself down in front of me, her arms tightly wrapped around my waist, her face rubbing against my side. "Kyoya! Since you took my chastity—you have to protect me well!"

I slapped her on the forehead. I was a bit speechless at Nia's shameless behavior.

'Although you're not good at fighting—you're still a Spirit! Can't you be a little calmer?'

'It seems just applying protective measures to the girls at home is not enough. I must improve their strength!'

"I've applied protective spells on you all, you won't get hurt. So stop rubbing against me! My clothes are getting soaked with your tears."

"Hehe, So that's how it is, I forgot about that. Sorry, sorry."

"But, Kyoya, why don't you go deal with that strange sphere?" Looking at the completely rampaging Kerubiel in the sky, attacking indiscriminately, Nia voiced the question in her heart.

Hearing this, I also offered an explanation. "Don't worry. I've already set up a barrier. Their attacks can't harm people. As for why I'm not making a move now, I just want to train Tohka and the others' combat abilities."

Saying this, the two of them looked back up at the girls fighting in the sky.

However, Tohka, Origami, and the other girls' full-power attacks had no effect on Kerubiel. On the contrary, they were forced to constantly dodge its lightning attacks.

———

Seeing the battle heat up, Kotori, as the warship's commander, no longer hesitated and directly used the warship's strongest attack. "Converging Magic Cannon—Mystletainn—maximum energy output, fire!"

In an instant, a high-energy golden light cannon struck Kerubiel head-on. For a moment, a strong light instantly illuminated the entire area.

But after the smoke and dust dissipated, Kerubiel was completely unharmed.

"What?? It had no effect??" Seeing the warship's light cannon attack being ineffective, everyone was shocked.

Suddenly, Kerubiel released a strange sphere, ignoring the obstruction of the golden barrier constructed by the Yggdrasil Leaf.

When the sphere descended directly above Mayuri, it released a web-like object made of white-gold. Towards this unexpected attack, Mayuri had no time to react and was about to be captured by it.

To this, I directly sent out a slash, shattering the not-yet-fully-formed cage with a single strike.

"As if I'd let you capture my Mayuri again!"

With a surge of telekinetic power, this strange sphere completely dissipated, as if it had never existed.

Mayuri's eyes suddenly widened, "Kyoya..."

"Rest assured, Mayuri. This time, I'll be the one to protect you!" Turning around, I extended my hand to Mayuri, a signature warm smile on my face.

Mayuri looked at him for a long time without speaking. But ultimately, she still took my outstretched hand and slowly stood up.

———

On the other side—

Because of my actions, Kerubiel's rampage became even more thorough, and it changed its form again.

Its wings twisted and deformed, reverting to a sphere. Then, a pair of horns grew, and a giant sharp horn extended from the front.

"What on earth is going on? Cherub, stop it quickly! Why is this happening?"

Immediately, looking at me beside her, Mayuri's heart was filled with urgency, while also feeling extremely puzzled.

'Clearly, everything had settled down. Why is this happening?'

Recalling my dates with them, a strange feeling suddenly arose in Mayuri's heart. Abruptly, an incredible guess surfaced in her mind.

"Could it be... Could it be because of... me??"

———

Simultaneously, in the warship, Reine also voiced this guess. "Jealousy!"

"Based on this unfamiliar reiryoku wave, it's likely that the unfamiliar girl's unknown feelings for Kyoya caused the Angel to go berserk."

Hearing this explanation, everyone finally understood.

However, before they could react, a warning sound suddenly came from the warship. Everyone was horrified to find that the rampaging Angel had already gathered an extremely terrifying amount of energy.

There was no Spirit on the scene who could withstand this blow.

"Th-This is... the Sword of Light??" Mayuri's small face was filled with horror.

"Well, Looks like I'll have to take matters into my own hands." I smiled and said this to Mayuri, then prepared to go and deal with the rampaging Kerubiel.

"W-Wait! Kyoya! Cherub is very strong! Don't be reckless!"

Hearing that I was going to deal with the rampaging Cherub, Mayuri immediately tried to stop me, holding my hand and not letting me go.
