After the Dragons, Issei and Vali, had left to confront the leaders of this army, the members of the DxD, CIA, and MI6 were tasked to deal with the army of Artificial Devils and Grim Reapers numbering around 60,000 but there could be more. It wasn't just that, some of the members were feeling that there was a God or two hiding within this army, just biding their time to strike at the most opportune moment.
Sona summoned hundreds of water creatures while also watching Ingvild Leviathan summon her water dragons. Ingvild was also curious about Sona and also watched her summons and she could tell that they were using different fundamentals to do it. As a direct descendant of the original Leviathan, Ingvild's summons had more power and destructiveness while Sona's summons had more flexibility and control.
It wasn't just that, as Sona's summons were through meticulous calculations while Ingvild's were more lifelike due to the imbued Dragon Aura within them, 'So that's how the direct descendant does it. I must admit. Her vigorous Dragons are much more effective than mine in this kind of situation.'
Aside from her, among Kisuke's group, only Koneko was with her to serve as her guard as both of them could tell that there was a Deity hiding within Hell Alliance's army, but couldn't find them due to how chaotic the battlefield was. But because Koneko was just standing there and doing nothing with her eyes closed, some people couldn't help but frown.
'What is she doing? If she's just going to stand there doing nothing, she should just evacuate!' Jeanne of the Hero Faction thought frustratingly.
Soon, it began to snow. Although there was no change in temperature, some of the enemy Artificial Devils and Grim Reapers started freezing and dropping like flies before breaking into many pieces once they hit the ground. Sona looked at the source of this Magic and saw the member of Grauzauberer and Slash/Dog Team, Lavinia Reni, with her Longinus, Absolute Demise in a form of a three-meter tall disfigured doll made of ice that took the form of a woman in a dress by her side, 'Although not as strong as my sister's, it's still amazing to be able to distinguish enemies from allies.'
Next, Sona's eyes darted towards Genshirou in his Malebolge Vritra Promotion. Genshirou grew numerous tentacles that attached themselves to the enemies and drained them of their Demonic Power and Magic Power before turning them into ashes with his black cursed flames. The surplus of what he absorbed was then transferred to the allies near him, namely, Ruruko Nimura and Momo Hanakai, both of whom were his girlfriends now.
'Looks like they've really improved a lot.' But before Sona could further watch her surroundings and observe more, a Teleportation Magic Circle appeared beside her and Koneko that revealed Medusa, Riveria, and Aika immediately after.
She was about to greet them but was shocked at the last person, "Aika? Have you recovered?"
"...You're the former president Shitori. You know me too?"
Sona was stunned for a moment before saying, "Apparently not." She then faced Medusa and asked, "Why hasn't he lifted the seal?"
Medusa shook her head, "You know him. He's stubborn beyond belief as long as you can't change his opinion."
However, Aika and Riveria didn't have the confidence or leisure to talk casually with all the destruction going on around them.
Especially for Aika who had just coincidentally saw someone's head fly off. She tried to avert her gaze but instead saw someone else getting his stomach blown open. Aika lurched forward and held her mouth in an attempt to quell his urge to vomit. It was fortunate for her that she'd only gotten a spoonful for her breakfast or else she'd be hurling everything she had eaten.
While Sona hurried over to her side and rubbed her back, Medusa's cold voice entered her ears, "This is the reality of the world you're trying to discover. If you can't take it, you have to back out now."
Sona wanted to protest to Medusa but held herself back when she met her eyes.
Aika remained silent for a few moments before asking while still lurching forward, "...Are we on the side of justice?"
"What a silly question. In a war, whoever wins is justice and the loser is the evil that has been quelled."
Aika stood up without looking at Medusa, "Then please tell me the story behind this war." Aika raised her head and ingrained the image of slaughter in her mind. She was feeling disgusted and wanted to run away from this as far as possible. However, she didn't want to become a bystander that pretends that nothing is going on. As Medusa had said, she should face this reality if she really wanted to walk this way.
As someone who was more aware of the situation, Sona explained the situation as unbiased as possible while controlling her water creatures to fend off the approaching enemies.
Sona finished her summary of what had happened a few minutes later and waited for Aika's reaction.
No one knows when but Aika was already holding onto her nodachi and quietly staring at it.
The next moment, someone came crashing beside them, breaking the earth and sending dust everywhere.
"Phuehh! Dang it. I ate some dirt!" Complained the blonde woman in armor. She then coincidentally looked to her side and saw Sona's group. Pissed at their still pristine appearance. "Hey! If you aren't going to help, leave! You're taking up valuable space!"
A burly shoulder-length gray hair then landed beside her, "Looks like you're still alright since you can still complain."
Jeanne pointed at their group while facing Heracles, "Aren't you mad!? Even the weakest in the CIA and MI6 are risking their lives yet these people are just standing there!"
Heracles looked at them and also thought the same. However, he wouldn't be voicing his complaints since they still hadn't bothered him.
Sona was about to step in but was overtaken by Medusa, "We apologize. Since we're here, we'll do our part." While Jeanne was being rude and aggressive, Medusa knew how they looked so she didn't really deny it.
Medusa then turned to Sona and said, "Can you open up my view?"
Sona understood what she wanted to happen and commanded her creatures to clear their immediate perimeter before canceling her summons.
Meanwhile, Medusa closed her eyes and took off her glasses and the moment Sona's summons disappeared, a massive wave of Divine Power came emanating from her, gathering most of the attention in the battlefield since any Godly presence was worth every attention.
Sona opened the communication line connecting to everyone on their side and said, [Please don't look at the origin of the Divine Power.]
Opening her gem-like eyes again, a wave of power swept through the entire battlefield and all of those who were looking at her and had insufficient resistance were instantly turned to stone and began dropping like flies, breaking the moment they hit the ground. That single move of her annihilated more enemies than Lavinia did.
At that moment, Koneko also finally opened her eyes and muttered, "Found you."
