After the pope transformed, he and Asmodeus began fighting. Their blade and magic clashed several times, causing Yuina and Aki to become shocked. He flung Aki from his shadow at the start of combat, now fighting beside the princess.
They tried to watch while fighting off the deranged nobles and knights.
The moment Asmodeus revealed his strength, the eyes of Pope Johan became bemused. His young and attractive form glowed with a dark light. However, that shock lasted but a moment before his fingertips snapped, turning several of the nobles into blood mist.
"Pope Johan!?"
"Hmph! Mere animals who exist only to serve our lord do not speak my name!" Johan's eyes gazed at the beastkin like garbage.
The next moment, black runic and magic circles flooded the space around Asmodeus, while the demon king merely pointed towards the pope. "Arrogant priest!"
