The next day, as the seal on Loki was about to break, everyone had gathered at the designated location.
Sona Sitri, along with two of her peerage members, joined the Gremory group led by Rias, accompanied by ace angel Irina Shidou and Valkyrie Rossweisse. Together, they formed a formidable alliance.
In front of them, a diamond-shaped barrier floated midair. This was the seal placed by Ajuka Beelzebub, imprisoning the Norse god Loki after his assault the previous day.
"The time is near. The seal will break soon," Rias announced, her tone steady. Though she had been anxious the night before, her composure now spoke volumes of her resolve.
"Loki's power is overwhelming. At full strength, he is a God on par with the Maou. But if we work togetherā¦" Sona began strategizing, her gaze drifting toward Badr.
"Can you hold him off?" she asked directly.
Badr offered a small smirk. "Guess we'll see."
He turned to the seal just as it cracked. A resonant hum filled the air before the barrier shattered in a brilliant burst of light.
From within emerged a man clad in a flowing white robe, his silver hair gleaming under the dim light. His expression was sharp, his presence commanding.
"Damn that Beelzebub and his petty tricks," Loki muttered, his voice dripping with disdain. His piercing gaze swept across the gathered group.
"And what is this?" he sneered. "A bunch of nobodies? Pathetic."
Raising his hand lazily, Loki summoned forth a massive spatial ripple. With a thunderous roar, a colossal wolf emerged, a creature so enormous it seemed to blot out the sky. Its feral growl sent shivers through the air.
"Be careful! It'sĀ Fenrir!" Sona warned, her voice tense.
Rossweisse stepped forward, attempting diplomacy. "Loki-sama, please, stop this. There's no need for such drastic measures!"
Loki's eyes flicked to her, cold and dismissive. "A Valkyrie? Amusing. But you're no match for me."
With a casual wave, Loki summoned more creatures: two slightly smaller wolves and a massive serpent.
"These areĀ SkƶllĀ andĀ Hati, Fenrir's offspring. And this," he gestured to the serpent, "is a replica ofĀ Jƶrmungandr. Let's see how you fare against them."
With a bored gesture, he commanded, "Kill them."
A crimson aura flared around Rias as she stepped forward, her magic surging. "Don't underestimate us!"
She unleashed a massive wave of red flames, forcing even Fenrir to take a step back.
"Impressive," Loki remarked, "but ineffective. Fenrir cannot be harmed by such weak attacks."
Fenrir growled, emboldened by Loki's words. But Rias smirked. "I'm not alone."
Sona and her peerage joined the fray, their combined attacks targetingĀ HatiĀ and driving the wolf backward. Meanwhile, Xenovia and Irina stepped in to interceptĀ Skƶll, their weapons glowing with Sacred light.
"We'll handle these beasts, President!" Xenovia called out.
Rias nodded, turning her focus to the serpent alongside Rossweisse. "Understood. Let's deal with Jƶrmungandr."
Loki, observing from above, frowned. "Annoying pests. I suppose I'll have to intervene."
Raising his hand, he unleashed a beam of destructive light toward Rias's group.
Before the beam could strike, Badr appeared in a flash, his Sacred shield materializing in front of him. The beam collided with the barrier, dissipating harmlessly.
As the dust settled, Badr stood tall, his gaze locked on Loki.
"And who might you be?" Loki sneered.
Badr smirked, his tone mocking. "Don't worry. You'll remember me once I've dealt with you."
Loki's eyes narrowed in irritation.
He launched a flurry of attacks, magical projectiles raining down like a storm. But Badr dodged with ease, moving at lightning speed as he shielded his allies. Each missed attack left craters in the ground.
Placing Rias back with her group, Badr drew hisĀ King Sword, its blade gleaming with an otherworldly light.
"Let's not waste time," he muttered, activating hisĀ Queen Promotion. His aura flared as his power surged, his presence now overwhelming.
"Oh?" Loki raised an eyebrow, intrigued. "A devil using the chess promotion system? Interesting. Let's see how far that power takes you."
Badr met Loki's gaze, unshaken. Channeling his magic into the [King Sword], he activated another ability.
With his strength amplified, Badr's aura soared to unprecedented heights. The ground beneath him cracked as the air itself seemed to tremble.
Loki's smirk faltered, but his confidence remained. "Impressive. Let's see if you can back it up."
