Hayato and the heroes were fighting but they were overpassed by the demons and monsters. A giant two heads wolf was nearly to attack Akane and Mai but suddenly something fell from upside. The wolf monster was killed from something who came from dust.
Kurobe: I arrived at time. Are you okey? Sakurada, Amakusa.
Mai: How do you know our names?
Akane: (Amazed) Kurobe-kun?
Hanzo: (Coughing from the dust) Guys! I brought help!
Mai: Kusakabe-kun.
Yuki: (Coming from the dust) We arrived.
Kurobe: So my ex-party were here. It seems Tachibana and her company aren't here.
Mavka: What? You are…? Even you hide your face, I feel a great demon power.
Kurobe: You have a great power, more than any demon I killed. So you are one of the general demons of Satan.
Mavka: That's right! I'm Mavka, the third general demon of Satan-sama! I was waiting for you!
Then her demons and monsters were coming to him. At that time, Luna, Tsubaki and Kei appeared too.
Luna: (Making fists) Great! Monsters to crush!
Tsubaki: (Taking her sword) Let's handle them!
Kei: (Using her visors and taking her tech guns) Alright!
Hayato: Who are those guys? They came from up there.
Kurobe: Well, let's rock! Yuki, take care of them. Kei, support from distant. Luna and Tsubaki with me in the attack!
Yuki: Okey. (Taking Hanzo to the other heroes)
Kei: Count with me (Leaving with Yuki)
Luna: Okey! (Wearing her gloves)
Tsubaki: Fine! (Pointing her sword to the monsters)
Mavka: You want to show me your skills? Don't blame me if you die, Satan-sama's fail creation!
Hayato: (Surprised) What did she say?
The demons and monsters attacked Kurobe and his party. They began to counter.
Kurobe: Attack!
Kurobe run and used his shotgun and kill some monsters, then used his blade to kill some demons.
Yuki was in front of Hayato and the heroes to protect them. As attacking some monsters with ice shards.
Yuki: Be frozen!
Kei was using her sniper as targeting with her visor, killing some monster to distant.
Kei: Nice shot!
Other monsters were coming to her. She launched a grenade which made big explosions, killing them.
Kei: What a burst! And thanks to Kurobe's items to created powerful grenades.
Luna was facing some stone golems but she was able to destroy them by using her special gloves.
Luna: These are great! Thanks to Kurobe-san!
But then a lion monster was attacking her but she dodged at time.
Luna: So you think I'm your prey, well (In position with hands and feet on the ground like an animal) sorry but… you are my prey. I'm a wild wolf!
The monster attacked her but she kicked it then she was behind and catched it. She used a suplex to kill it.
Tsubaki: I'll show I can win with my Ancestral crescent!
Tsubaki was using her big sword to kill monsters.
Tsubaki: Shiny moon blade dance!
She used her big sword as executing many slashes in elegant mode, as killing many monsters.
Hayato: Amazing! Those girls are skillful!
Kurobe: Alright. Let's try Kei's improvements in my shotgun!
He shot to some demons with bullets which pierced them violently.
Kurobe: Now, these ones!
He shot to some big monsters with bullets which made big explosions.
Kurobe: Wow! And let's try this one!
He shot to the rest of the demons and monsters with incendiaries bullets which burnt them.
Kurobe: Awesome! With my power I can change the types of bullets.
Kei: (Smirking) He! I told you I'm smart!
Hayato: That strange masked guy is also skillful. Who is he?
Hanzo: You won't believe this. But he's Kurobe Akatsuki.
Everyone were surprised to hear that name.
Hayato: What? Akatsuki?
Kentaro: Incredible!
Iori: (Angry) That's bullshit!
It's imagined the scene at the bridge collapsing as Kurobe falled to the abyss. It's seen the fireball which hurt his leg was from Iori in discreet.
Iori: (To Hanzo) You're lying!
Hanzo: I had my doubts but his voice and face, I recognized him!
Iori: Impossible! He can't be alive! We all saw him falling to the abyss with injuries! He couldn't return…
Suddenly an ice shard was launched to his side almost scratched him. He was in shock. It's seen Yuki attacked.
Yuki: Shut up. (With cold eyes) Do you want to lose your life, like Kurobe suffered?
Iori was afraid to see her.
More monsters and demon surrounded Kurobe to attack. Then he grabbed his chain which was in red hot like burning.
Kurobe: Take this!
He began to make his chain do spin, which create a big flame ring which burned all the monsters and demons which surrounded him.
Mavka: No way! You are just a fake demon! Satan-sama created you!
Kurobe: So you are one of the general demons. Good opportunity to ask questions.
Mavka: What?
Kurobe: Where's Satan? I need to ask about that attack from my childhood. (Remembering the attack where his family is killed) I want answers!
Suddenly something was approaching to Kurobe. At that time he took his spear and pierced to the air. It was an invisible huge snake but was killed easily by Kurobe just by moving his hand back.
Kurobe: Tsk! I want information!
Mavka: Tsk! Do you think I'll talk?
She shot a powerful beam from her hands. Kurobe received the attack but was able to stop it by hitting with his hand. Everyone was in shock to see that.
Hayato: He diverted that attack by a hit?
She moved her hand and more monsters were summoned. Kurobe used his chain spear to kill them at once.
Mavka: (Angry) A failure like you can't equal a power like a general demon! I'll retreat for now!
She was using a teleport spell but suddenly Kurobe shot, blowing her hand with that. She screamed in pain.
Kurobe: (With cold eyes) So weak, is that the power of a general demon?
Mavka: You bastard!
Kurobe: (Coming to her) I won't let you escape. (Grabbing her) So, will you talk?
Suddenly she took a knife and attacked. But he stopped her at time throwing her knife. Then he pushed her to a wall very hard.
Mavka: (With pain) Damn! I should have summoned more demons and monsters!
Kurobe: Then, will you tell me where's Satan?
Mavka: Hahahaha! Do you want to fight with him? He's like the Lord god, you can't face a deity!
Kurobe: I'll face him, no matter what! The guilty one of my family death, he will pay too!
Mavka: You're insane! It's impossible a fake demon can't reach a deity's power!
Kurobe: Even I got killed, I won't give up my revenge.
Mavka: Now you will kill me? I'm the third general demon. The other two are stronger than me! And one of them is my lover, he will avenge me what you did to me!
Kurobe: Really? Then, I'll ask those two about Satan.
Mavka: Alastor, Naburus, they will kill you! Go to hell!
Kurobe: (His hand was burning) Hell? I'll show you the hell!
Kurobe's head was boiling as turning into his demon form.
Yuki: Everyone, stay away from him. That's the hell curse which he tried to control!
Hayato and the others were in shock to see Kurobe's demon form.
Hayato: What happened to Akatsuki? A demon? A grim reaper?
Mavka: (Being burn by his hands) Ah! You'll die! You white haired human!
Kurobe: You first! Then the generals and Satan!
His hands were in fire.
Yuki: She's dead.
Hayato: Wait Akatsuki! She's defeated! You don't have to…
Kurobe: INFERNO!
A huge fire column covered Kurobe and Mavka. She was screaming in pain as being burnt until she became burnt corpse.
Hayato: (Yelling) AKATSUKI!
Iori was in horror to see what Kurobe did.
Kurobe: (As turning back to his human form) One down. (Wearing his hood and mask) Damn.
Yuki went to him.
Yuki: Kurobe, are you okey?
Kurobe: I'm fine. You did well taking care of the heroes.
Yuki: (Smiling) Yes!
They were smiling each other. Luna, Tsubaki and Kei went to them.
Luna, Tsubaki and Kei: What are you doing?
Kei: Why Yuki is taking the attention?
Tsubaki: Hey don't flirt as if we weren't here!
Luna: It's unfair! We did our part too!
Kurobe: (Ignoring them) Yeah yeah.
Luna: I gave that man the healing item. Are you agree?
Kurobe: Yes, captain Kurosaki trained us, unless I want to give him thanks in this way.
Akane: (Coming to him) Kurobe-kun… Are you… Kurobe-kun?
Kurobe: (Removing his hood and mouth mask) Hi, Sakurada. It's been a while.
Akane: (Tearfully) Kurobe-kun. I knew it. You were alive. I'm glad… I'm glad… You're okey!
Kurobe: Sakurada.
Akane: (Tearfully) Thanks to be alive. Forgive me! I wasn't able to save you!
She was crying with her hands on her face. Kurobe was little uncomfortable as the girls were suspecting the environment.
Kurobe: Sakurada, listen. Don't blame yourself about that. Well, it was my fault for being weak, but somehow I survived. So please, don't be sad.
Akane: (As crying and embracing him) Kurobe-kun!
The girls were funny surprised to see her embracing Kurobe, especially Yuki. Hayato seems upset to see them together.
Later, Kurobe and the others were walking through the dungeon. Some of the heroes were carrying captain Kurosaki who was still weak.
Kurobe: The exit is close.
Hayato: Hey Akatsuki! Why did you go too far? It wasn't necessary to kill her!
Kurobe: (Ignoring him) Why not? Isn't supposed the Holy Church trained us to defeat demons?
Hayato: That's… even that… we aren't executers to kill a live!
Kurobe: What a pathetic you are.
Hayato: (Upset) What? I'm the hero!
Kurobe: Really? What hero wasn't able to protect his party?
Hayato: What?
Everyone were in shock to see their conversation.
Kurobe: Fujimura, I used to see you as admiration because I wanted to be strong like you. But after see you failing against that demon I see I was wrong. Your pathetic!
Hayato: (Upset) Damn you...
Suddenly Kurobe appeared in front of Hayato in an instant, pointing his shotgun to Hayato's forehead. He was in shock to see Kurobe close.
Kurobe: I don't want something else from you!
Hayato: To think you were part of the heroes despite your weakness. You used to be a friend.
Kurobe: I'm not a friend of you anymore! And I won't return with the heroes! The only reason I came here it was because I owed Sakurada about before!
Hayato: What?
Kurobe: Once we get out of here, I leave. We won't see you again!
Kurobe was walking away and Hayato was upset; Akane was worried to hear that. Yuki was looking to Akane and teased her by her tongue out as walking to Kurobe's side very close.
Yuki: Bleh, I won.
Akane was little upset as Mai noticed her. Luna, Tsubaki and Kei followed Kurobe.
Yuki: Kurobe, I'm glad you're okey after using your demon power.
Kurobe: Even though, I wasn't ready at all. I must keep control this.
After everyone were out of the dungeon, a group of knights arrived to them.
Knight 1: We came to help the heroes.
Mai: It's okey, Akatsuki-kun and his party saved us.
Knight 2: Really?
Mai: Yeah, we need medical treatment for captain Kurosaki.
Knight 1: Okey, we'll report to the Holy church that the heroes came back.
Kurobe: It looks Fujimura's team will be fine, so we need to move out.
Yuki: Yes!
Luna: Eh? No yet! I want to eat a big meal!
Tsubaki: Also I need a shower after this battle.
Kei: And I have to do maintain to our weapons.
Kurobe: Girls, demanding as usual.
Akane looked at them with Mai at her side.
Mai: Akatsuki-kun has changed a lot, don't you think?
Akane: Yeah, he was lonely without any support from us but…
Akane saw Kurobe with the girls who were laughing. Then she remembered Kurobe in the past in which he was smiling.
Kurobe: Girls, after that, we leave.
Girls: Yes.
Akane: Kurobe-kun is going to leave. Mai, sorry but I have to do something.
Kurobe: No more distraction.
Akane: (Coming to him) Kurobe-kun!
Kurobe: Sakurada?
Akane: Can I ask you something? May I go with you?
Kurobe was little surprised. The heroes were in the same reaction.
Akane: No, I mean, I want to go with you.
Yuki: (In front to her) Hey! Don't decide that without permission!
Akane: Really? Permission from who? You?
Yuki: Any problem?
Akane: You want to be with Kurobe-kun's side? Well, I want to be with him too. (To Kurobe) Kurobe-kun, listen this… I love you.
Kurobe: Eh?
Yuki, Luna, Tsubaki and Kei were funny surprised to hear her. The female heroes were happy to hear. The male heroes were surprised, mostly Hayato and Iori.
Akane: That's right. I loved you during our time since the academy, sorry for taking too much time to confess.
Kurobe: Sakurada, thanks for your feelings… but I can't accept them, sorry.
Akane was sad after being rejected.
Akane: (In her state) I see, it's because of Yuki-san.
Kurobe: Right, she was the one who saved me about my loneness. Also I feel appreciation for her. That's why I can't accept your love.
Yuki: Right, you did the same to Misao.
Akane: Fine… but… I want to be at your side. Let me have time to show you my feelings are real, more than anyone!
Kurobe: But…
Hayato: (Coming to them) Hey Akane, what did you mean with that? You… love Akatsuki?
Akane: Hayato-kun.
Hayato: No way! (In shock) No way! We're childhood friends! We were together long time ago! (Imagining himself and Akane playing as kids) We're supposed to be together! I thought we loved each other!
Akane: Hayato-kun, I'm sorry. It's true we are childhood friends, but the truth I felt in love with Kurobe-kun in the academy. I couldn't share my feelings for you like Kurobe-kun. I'm sorry.
Hayato: (To Kurobe, very angry) Akatsuki! What did you do to Akane?
Mai: (Coming to him) Hey Hayato! That's enough! Akane is not a thing to possess!
Hayato: No way! She was brainwashed!
Mai: That's impossible!
Hayato: Then, you were brainwashed too!
Kurobe: Hey, I could have some basic magic but I don't have that type.
Mai: Don't you know I can detect controlling magic? Hayato, I don't feel any on Akane!
Himawari: That's right Hayato-kun! I can detect magic too and I don't feel any.
Kurobe: Is that enough to shut you up?
Hayato: Don't screw with me! Akane, look at him! He became a demon like Satan! Also he's a murder!
Mai: Akatsuki-kun did it to save us! If he didn't we could died!
Hayato: But look at him! Look the girls in his side! They were forced to join with him! That light-blue hair is very closed to him, also one of them is using a slave collar and indecent clothes! A school girl treated as a boy and a little girl forced to carry weapons!
Kei: (Funny upset) Don't call me little!
The other girls were little uncomfortable to hear his words.
Hayato: Listen ladies, you don't have to be forced to serve that guy. Come with my party and you will be treat like normal girls.
But the girls ignored him.
Yuki: (Ignoring him) I pass.
Luna: What did he think he is acting as a hero?
Tsubaki: I don't care weak boy, and worst who call me tomboy!
Kei: (Mocking with tongue) No way! Bleh!
Hayato was upset after being rejected by Yuki and the others.
Hayato: Akatsuki! I challenge you! Only with bare hands! Or are you afraid to fight without your weapons?
Kurobe: (Sighs) What kind of hero has infantile personality?
Hayato: Don't screw with me! If I beat you, you will leave those girls from your dominion and you move away!
Kurobe: And to think I wanted to follow your steps as hero. I was wrong about you. (Launching his weapons to Yuki) Yuki, take care of them. I think someone needs to be cool. It's okey, I don't need my demon power for someone like him.
Hayato: (Running) Akatsuki!
Hayato punched Kurobe to his cheek very hard. Kurobe didn't feel any pain.
Kurobe: Are you satisfied?
Hayato: No way!
Kurobe: So no mercy.
Kurobe grabbed Hayato to his neck and strike him to the ground very hard, making Hayato unconscious.
Hayato: You… won't take… Akane… away from… me! (Fainting)
The others were surprised to see that.
Akane: (Worried) Kurobe-kun?
Kurobe: It's okey he's just fainted, be glad I didn't kill him.
Yuki: Well done.
Kurobe: You saw, Sakurada. Even you saw my half-demon form. You still want to follow me?
Akane: Even I was scared, I know you. I want to go.
Kurobe: Why?
Yuki: Let her do whatever.
Akane: Eh?
Yuki: No matter which girl is, nobody will beat my love for you.
Akane: Really? Well, I knew Kurobe-kun more than anyone. I won't lose.
Yuki: Me neither. They were facing each other smiling but emitting dark aura.
Luna: That's scary!
Kei: (Using her visor) Oh-ho! I detect dark energy, more than Kurobe's.
Tsubaki: This is great.
Kurobe: If you insist, then it's fine.
Akane: (Very close to him) By the way, Kurobe-kun, why you were surrounded by cute girls? And who is Misao? How many girls do you want to have?
Kurobe: (Trying to calming her) Hey, hey!
Mai: You need to effort to take care Akane.
At night; Kurobe was eating dinner outside the academy with Yuki and the girls, including Akane.
Kurobe: This could be my last night of enjoying this good food.
Yuki: It's okey, I learned how to cook for the trip.
Luna: Yey! I want to taste it!
Tsubaki: I'm glad some.
Kei: Me too!
Kurobe: Let's finish our dinner and rest. I have to go to my old room to find my family memory.
Akane: Kurobe-kun, do you mean this?
She showed him the photo of his family. He took it very calm.
Kurobe: My family memory. Thanks Sakurada.
Akane: Your other stuffs were taken away so I recovered this because it was very important to you.
Kurobe: (Smiling a little) I'm happy I could have it again.
Yuki: So that photo is very important to you.
Tsubaki: Akatsuki had emotions, that's weird.
Mai: (Coming to them) Akane, you need to sleep.
Akane: Right.
Kurobe: And how is Fujimura?
Mai: He will be fine, but still in depression about before.
Kurobe: Sakurada, be sure to wake up early, we'll part in the morning.
At next morning, Kurobe and his team were ready to leave. Akane, Mai and some of the heroes were there too.
Akane: Well, I have to go.
Mai: (Embracing her) Akane, no matter how far you go, we'll meet again. Have a safe trip.
Akane: Yes.
Kei: It's okey, I can upgrade your device to have long distant communication.
Akane: Thanks, Kei-chan.
Kei: (Little upset) Don't treat me like a little girl.
Kurobe: (Taking something) Amakusa, I have something for you.
Mai: (Amazed) Is that?
He gave her something. It was her katana which was fixed.
Kurobe: Here, it's your weapon. I fixed it.
Mai: Amazing! It looks a little different, its edge seems sharpen and great.
Kurobe: I mixed your katana with the forever iron, the rarest item I found in the abyss. Now your katana is harder also with good shape. That item is mixed with my blood it means only I can use its power by weapons. I did the same with Tachibana
Mai: So my katana's power is limited.
Kurobe: Yeah, but with your spirit I'm sure one day you will unleash its power.
Mai: (Embracing her katana) Yes, thanks Akatsuki-kun.
Kurobe realized Yuki, Luna, Tsubaki, Kei and Akane were funny upset about that.
Yuki: Kurobe, you're flirting with other girl.
Akane: With Mai too!
Luna: You already have me!
Tsubaki: You womanizer!
Kei: You need to organize your team.
Kurobe: Enough! (Summoning his truck) get in.
On the road, Kurobe was driving, and the girls were chatting.
Akane: This vehicle is great.
Kei: And wait to see its weaponry.
Luna: (Smiling) Let's get to another city, I want to eat good food!
Tsubaki: Can't you stop thinking in eating?
Yuki: Kurobe, let's do our best together
Kurobe: Yes. My quest of avenge my family is just beginning. I swear I'll found Satan to get answers. I won't be his puppet and destroy all my enemies.
Meanwhile, at the Holy church headquarters, some headmasters priests are in a reunion.
Headmaster priest 1: According to the report, the heroes were rescued by some party. They had amazing skills, they were able to kill demons and monsters, including one of the general demon.
Headmaster priest 2: A general demon… killed?
Headmaster priest 3: One of those warriors, looked had demon power!
Headmaster priest 2: A demon saved our heroes? What an insult for the Holy Curch and our Lord God!
At that moment someone was walking, it was a girl with holy white costume which consists vest, skirt, high stockings, heeled shoes, even a valkyrie winged helmet.
Headmaster priest 3: We can't allow that guy moves anywhere! There's rumor he could be in Satan's orders.
Headmaster priest 1: We have to do something!
Main headmaster priest: Don't worry, the Lord God Y, had spoken to me. He said he knew that demon guy is one of the heroes who fall in the abyss. So he won't let him do whatever he wants.
The mysterious girl was heading to the room. It's revealed she has long white hair.
Headmaster priest 1: Our Lord God Y will help us?
Main headmaster priest: We can't let the young ones to manage the war. Our Lord God Y said Satan will have his most powerful warrior: the Hell Ace!
Headmaster priest 1: The Hell Ace! Our heroes won't win if he appears!
Main Headmaster priest: That's why he will send his powerful warrior too to kill Satan and the Hell Ace!
At that moment, the girl entered to the room as carrying a sword on her waist. The other headmaster priests were amazed to see her. It's seen the girl was wearing an faceless mask.
Main Headmaster priest: She came. The Lord God Y had send us his chosen warrior: the Heaven Ace, Light!
Light: (Cold voice) I will finish the Hell Ace!
