...

The Governor General of the Fallen Angels chuckled inwardly. This Badr kid was truly naive.

"You've snagged the next head of the Gremory clan, and you've been bestowed a symbolic Holy Sword by the Angels. Either one of those is enough to make you a target for the younger generation of Devils."

Rias, was studying tactical formations when she heard Azazel's words. Her face flushed crimson.

"T-that has nothing to do with me..."

Normally elegant and composed, Rias always showed a bashful side when facing Badr.

Badr smiled at her, his voice gentle. "Well, it can't be helped then. For Rias sake, I'll gladly entertain any genius who wants to challenge me."

Rias eyes softened, practically dripping with affection.

"Hahaha, good, good! That's the spirit!" Azazel seemed pleased. "After all, you're my student."

He took to the sky, his tone casual. "I won't disturb you any longer. Enjoy your time together. And make sure to produce some offspring! You've already claimed Rias, haven't you?"

"That's none of your business, sensei," Badr replied calmly.

"Heh, can't I show some concern for my student's well-being? You're so ungrateful."

Azazel's words earned him eye rolls from both Badr and Rias.

The old man was incorrigible. Legend had it that this Fallen Angel had fallen precisely because of his insatiable lust, his constant desire to engage with various women...

...

After seeing Azazel off, Badr joined the others for training.

They used to train together, but now, with Badr's self-imposed rigorous training regime, the others had to work hard to keep up.

Since it was the weekend, they trained until late. Badr took responsibility for their well-being, becoming their chef...

After preparing dinner single-handedly, he called everyone back to eat.

"Xenovia, Asia, that's enough training for today."

"Understood."

The two Church representatives stopped. Badr then went to call Akeno Himejima and Rias, finally turning his attention to the distant training grounds where Koneko Toujou was engaged in solo physical training.

"Koneko? Take a break. You've been at it all day."

Badr called out to her.

"I... can still continue..."

Koneko's strained voice reached him. She was running while carrying a boulder magically enhanced with extra weight. Her training intensity rivaled, if not surpassed, Badr's own during the same period.

Badr frowned. Something seemed off about Koneko today.

Did she have something on her mind?

Her magical energy seemed unstable, which wasn't a good sign.

"Koneko, your magical energy is fluctuating. Stop."

He warned her again, but Koneko gritted her teeth and persisted. "I can still... continue..."

Boom!

Before she could finish her sentence, her magical energy went completely haywire. Another power surged within her, pushing her to the brink of collapse!

Her clothes instantly disintegrated under the strain of the rampaging energy, and wounds appeared across her delicate skin!

...

The sudden turn of events alarmed Rias and the others. Those who had already gone inside quickly rushed back out.

Badr reacted even faster. He vanished from his spot, appearing beside Koneko in a flash.

With a powerful upward swing, he sent the weighted boulder flying, crashing into the courtyard.

Koneko's body went limp as if all her strength had been drained. She collapsed backward.

Badr caught her and gently laid her down, his brow furrowed as he examined the lacerations covering her body.

This situation was similar to when he had forcefully used Sacred Gear resonance, a result of violent magical fluctuations exceeding her body's limits.

"Asia, quickly!"

Badr called out to Asia, who was already running towards them.

Her Sacred Gear, Twilight Healing, materialized in her hand, emitting a soft green glow. A potent life force enveloped Koneko's delicate form.

"Koneko, hang in there..." Asia murmured, focusing all her energy on Twilight Healing.

Fortunately, Asia had gained experience from assisting Badr during his intense Sacred Gear resonance training.

Back then, Badr's forced training often left him similarly wounded. Asia, distressed by his injuries, had always been by his side, often exhausting herself to the point of collapse.

As a result, her healing abilities had greatly improved, allowing her to handle this situation with practiced ease.

"What happened?" Xenovia wondered, observing Koneko's condition. "There seem to be two different powers within her..."

Rias expression was grave. She seemed to have a suspicion, her face serious.

Badr had no time to worry about that now. Koneko's situation was critical. Her magical energy was still raging, and he had to find a way to calm it down.

"Let's get her inside."

Badr lifted Koneko's small body into his arms.

Tiny wounds continued to appear on her exposed skin, requiring Asia's undivided attention to heal.

Koneko's brow was furrowed in pain.

Badr knew the agony of rampaging magical energy all too well. The sensation he experienced during forced Sacred Gear resonance was similar to this, and he knew Koneko must be in immense pain.

He quickly carried her back to her bedroom, followed by Rias and the others.

"What are you going to do?" Rias asked, her gaze filled with concern for Koneko.

"I think I can stabilize her magical energy. I'll try," Badr said seriously.

"Alright, I'll leave Koneko in your hands."

"Mm."

Badr nodded, turning to Asia. "The healing can't stop while I'm calming her magical energy."

"Understood." Asia's expression was resolute. Maintaining healing for extended periods was taxing, but she was determined to persevere.

Badr released his holy-demonic power, instantly shattering his clothes.

Rias and Akeno's eyes lingered on his well-toned physique for a moment.

To transfer magical energy, skin-to-skin contact was necessary. They remembered when Badr was still weak, Rias had healed him in the same way, a method he jokingly called "hug therapy."

It hadn't been long since then, yet now, he was the one protecting them...

Unaware of their pensive thoughts, Badr gently embraced Koneko.

Her bare skin was burning hot, her magical energy raging within her. Her condition was precarious.

Seeing the silver-haired beauty in pain, Badr didn't hesitate. He channeled his own magical energy, carefully guiding it through their skin contact and into Koneko's body.

He used pure demonic energy, not his fused holy-demonic power.

The power of his fused energy would harm Koneko. Fortunately, Badr had mastered [Absolute Control], granting him unparalleled command over his powers. Without it, he would have been helpless in this situation.

He pressed his forehead against Koneko's and spoke softly.

"Koneko, try to channel your magical energy. I'll help you with mine."

Koneko instinctively clung to Badr, finding relief from his magical energy.

Their bodies intertwined. As Koneko struggled to control her power, Badr sensed another, incredibly potent force surging within her.

This type of energy... felt familiar...

His mind raced, trying to recall where he had encountered it before.

It was the monkey from the Khaos Brigade, Bikou!

That self-proclaimed descendant of the Fighting Buddha Sun Wukong wielded Senjutsu!

Koneko... possessed Senjutsu...

But as he focused, he realized it was different.

It wasn't just Senjutsu. Another strange energy was mixed in.

What a strange concoction...

Badr himself wielded fused holy-demonic power. Akeno had a half-Fallen Angel, half-Devil constitution. And now Koneko had this strange mix within her. They were all quite unique...

Fortunately, Badr's current abilities were immense. Since Koneko's internal power was so strong, he no longer feared harming her. He channeled his holy-demonic power into her body.

No matter how much the power within Koneko raged, the barrier formed by his holy-demonic power remained firm, protecting her life.

Asia also persevered, Twilight Healing radiating its gentle light, constantly mending Koneko's wounds.

With their combined efforts, Koneko's condition gradually stabilized, moving towards recovery.

Five hours passed. Asia was reaching her limit, but Koneko's situation had mostly calmed down. Only minor wounds appeared occasionally.

Seeing this, Rias spoke softly. "Asia, you should rest. I'll take over."

With Koneko's condition stable, Rias, a high-class Devil, could easily heal the minor wounds with her own magical power.

Asia didn't refuse. She was truly exhausted. Now that the most dangerous period had passed, she felt relieved to hand over the task to Rias.

Like Badr, Rias removed her clothes and embraced Koneko, channeling her magic to heal her.

...

Another hour passed, and Koneko finally seemed stable.

Exhausted from the ordeal, she drifted into a deep sleep.

Badr gently held Koneko, carefully examining her with his magic to confirm that the raging energies within her had completely subsided. Only then did he relax.

"She should be fine now. She's just asleep."

He informed Rias, who finally let out a sigh of relief.

"What exactly happened? Why did her magical power suddenly go berserk?"

Rias still didn't understand the cause.

Badr explained about Koneko's excessive training, then voiced his confusion. "Koneko seemed troubled. And I detected Senjutsu within her. What's going on?"

Rias sighed, looking at the sleeping silver-haired girl in Badr's arms. "Koneko is a Nekomata, a legendary Youkai. She's even a Nekoshou, the strongest type of Nekomata, naturally capable of wielding both Senjutsu and Youjutsu."

Badr was surprised by Koneko's hidden talent.

"But she's never used that power before."

Since he had become Rias servant, Koneko had only used the enhanced strength and defense granted by her [Rook] piece. He had never seen her use Senjutsu or Youjutsu.

"Koneko has a past she doesn't like to talk about, so she stopped using those powers."

Rias gently stroked Koneko's hair, her eyes filled with affection.

Rias cherished all her servants, but she held a special fondness for Badr. In her own words, he was her most precious treasure.

Everyone had their own story in this world. Badr didn't pry further, choosing to remain silent and watch over Koneko.

"You must be tired too. Rest for a while. I'll watch over her." Rias expressed her concern for Badr, knowing he must have expended a considerable amount of energy to help Koneko.

"I'm fine. This is nothing. You should rest, Rias. I'll take care of this."
