I picked it off the ground and stared at it, always fascinated by its working.

It looked like it was still in acceptable conditions and I activated it to see if I was truly correct with this assumption.

My eyes blinking in awe and glee at the bright light coming from the little staff, consolidating in a white blade that looked so much like a proper 'Lightsaber'.

I immediately turned it off to not waste too much of its energy and I started to search for something that could resemble like batteries.

While it looked like some incredibly awesome weapon, I was also sure that it wasn't something that didn't require sustainable resources like with the Star Wars' version and that meant that there had to be something like a battery to make it.

Lo and behold, my little scavenging act was rewarded with seven transparent small crystals that seemed to fit in the lower section of its metallic hilt.

Putting the new weapon in my pocket, I had now a better chance of fending off anyone on my way since I could switch to use the sword without needing to empty my entire magical reserves and… possibly get killed because of draining my lifeforce.

I pushed a little the wooden barrier that led to the greater room of the building and gave a peek inside.

The acoustics were excellent and the sight offered by the sufficient illumination granted by some holes in the roof that let in some light was good enough to understand what was going on inside of it.

My eyes widened a little as I saw instantly that the two other Fallen Angels that served under Raynare, Kalawarner and Mittelt, were kneeling down as they silently looked towards the other two figures in the room.

Raynare was kneeling too, but she was crying profusely as she continued to beg the man that was currently giving me his back.

I frowned at his frame, feeling like I should have recognized him from it by now and… yet I couldn't pinpoint much from the little details I could see from my little cover.

The distance just wasn't helping me, and I ponder over moving closer to get a better visual about the situation.

I sighed quietly as I couldn't exactly hear what he was saying to the scared Raynare and thus, deciding to poke fun at fate itself, I slowly and stealthily crouch-walked towards a broken column that was closer to where the group was.

As I finished with this little relocation, I returned to glance back at the scene and… I noticed something was incredibly off.

The trio of Fallen Angels was now looking incredibly confused, alarmed even, as the man that had been standing there was now... gone?

I blinked once, then twice and… I finally noticed that something felt incredibly odd about my current placement.

I could distinctly remember this place having enough light to give a clear sight over everywhere and… yet where I was standing I felt like it everything looked quite… darkened.

Ad if a shadow was looming right from behind me.

My head slowly turned around and I was greeted with a smiling face that was of a very important character of the show.

Azazel winked back at me and waved cheekily as I almost jumped at the sudden appearance of this powerful being this close to where I was.

A half-whispered 'Fuck' leaving my lips caught the attention of the other occupants of the large room and my cover was literally blown apart by the presence of the leader of Grigori himself.

I poked fate and fate poked back by kicking my ass. Harshly.

"Hello there, young intruder," The Governor-General May I ask what are you doing here?"

I blinked, paling as this situation continued but managed some words out as the man waited patiently.

"I-I am here t-to kill..." I pointed at the glaring Raynare. "H-Her."

He stared up to his subordinate and the young woman shied away from looking back at him.

"Is that so?"

I nodded and he sighed. "Then could you explain to me what drives you to such a… murderous mission?" The Governor-General inquired with an intrigued tone. "I was busy trying to explain things about 'responsibilities' here and while also trying my best to appear an upstanding boss for those three… 'wayward' idiots."

The three Fallen Angels blushed embarrassed at the way they were addressed, but didn't rebuke it as… Azazel wasn't someone to take lightly, especially if you worked under him.

But I was shivering- no, trembling at the fact I could get killed if I didn't act properly.

"S-She killed a friend of mine and… tried to do t-the same with another friend of-"

"She jumped and took the Spear meant to you. I was going to kill you-!" The dark-haired woman tried to explain, but I wasn't done yet.

"But doesn't change the fact you hurt her!"

We exchanged some fierce glaring, momentarily ignoring whom was in the room but…

"Hahaha! That is something I've not seen in a long time, some childish bickering between enemies." The leader of Grigori said with a mirthful tone, letting out a chuckle while nodding at me. "I see that you both have some reason to fight each other and, while I would be quick to dispatch a punishment for trying to betray me, young Raynare, how about a bet?"

I tensed at the word 'bet', knowing well enough that 'bets' for Azazel were nothing to be happy about.

What was the crazy bastard thinking to do here?

"A fair fight to the death between you and this funny fellow," The man explained quietly. "The one that wins this match gets to live after today and… I don't think I need to explain what happens to the one who loses."

"I-I think I should have the right to-"

"Denied~!" He stated quickly with a giddy tone and without even looking back at me, his stare turning right at the girl. "What are you going to do, little Raynare?"

Was there even a choice for her?

Even I knew that refusing this opportunity would mean denying herself a chance of getting a lenient punishment out of her treachery being uncovered by Azazel and that was way too much endearing to let go so stupidly.
