“Thanks for defending the ‘woman you love’ back there, Sif,” I teased the blonde goddess next to me. She blushed and turned her head to the side. I’d have to talk to her about immediately resorting to violence over some words though. She resorted to killing Freed Selzen really fast over a couple of insults and threats. I was fine with her killing Freed–because fuck that guy–but she can’t go stabbing other people so quickly in the future like that.
[Who would have thought that Lady Sif was just a stab-happy Yandere-chan deep down?]
That’s not exactly how I would have worded it, but the System was pretty much right. I was aware of the subtle glares she would send Yasaka whenever the beautiful fox woman and I were speaking closely. I’m pretty sure Yasaka was aware as well but just didn’t care. She could have squished Sif like a bug at any time power-wise.
“O-of course!” Sif said without looking at me. Her embarrassment was cute. “I won’t let that homewrecker Hela have you all to herself!” She said as she slammed her fist against her chestplate in some kind of Asgardian pledge. “So where do you think your sister is right now? This town isn't huge, but it's not small either.”
Hmm, I wasn't quite sure. Searching the whole town was going to be a hassle and–
BOOM!
A thunderous crack rang out from nearby. A few blocks away in the sky, I could see dark clouds forming overhead that started sparking with lightning. Thunder rang out repeatedly as bolts of lightning started coming down from the sky. I could make out the hazy outline of someone hovering in the air, controlling all the lightning.
Sif looked at the forming clouds with her mouth wide. “Is Thor here!?”
I shook my head. “No… it's my niece. It looks like she found Raynare and probably Asia as well.”
“Then we must save the two post haste!” Sif started running towards the location of the fight. She was moving far faster than she should have been able to. Just like she did in the church. The Extremis formula didn't just enhance her healing but also her speed and strength as well. I spread my wings behind me and took off behind her to catch up.
…
“Stop attacking me you half breed bitch! I haven’t done anything to you!” I arrived on the scene quickly to see Raynare down on her knees. She was literally smoking and covered in painful looking electric burns. The golden haired Asai was crouched down next to her. The familiar green light of [Twilight Healing] was spread around Raynare’s form as Asia worked to heal her. I was surprised that Asia was actually healing someone she ran away from because they wanted to steal her Sacred Gear. The former nun was clearly too kind and forgiving.
We were in an empty park. Thankfully, all the regular humans had already fled for their lives. I had no idea how the Devil’s were planning on covering this up though. Memory erasure only went so far and Akeno was shooting lighting around in the middle of a clear sunny day. She hadn't even bothered to put up a barrier before she attacked either.
She had a manic look on her face as she floated in the air, staring down at Raynare. “You filthy Fallen Angel! You didn't have to do anything! All of your kind should die!” Akeno said coldly before she conjured more lightning and hurled it down towards Raynare.
I quickly flew down between them and conjured a [Lightshield] to absorb the lightning. Akeno's thunder was powerful, but my shield easily stopped it. Had Akeno been using [Holy Lightning], that would have been more difficult. I could feel she was only relying on her demonic power, though.
“Another Fallen Angel! And one with 8 wings, no less!” Akeno looked angry at my arrival.
“Hello, Niece. Could you please stop attacking Raynare? She is a moron, but she's a weak moron, and you're bullying her,” I said.
“Layla!” Raynare shouted out behind me. Her voice was full of surprise! “What the hell are you doing here!? And why do you have 8 wings!?”
“I'm here to stop your dumbass from restarting the great war. Did you think just because Asia was excommunicated that you could do whatever you wanted with her? She saved hundreds of lives of members of her faction over the years. If she is killed, then they will clearly demand vengeance,” I said to Raynare, who gulped at my implications. I, of course, had no idea if what I was spouting was true. But with [Acting level 3], it sounded convincing at least. Either way, Raynare seemed to at least hear my words.
“Fuck… Was my whole plan worthless from the start?” Raynare asked.
“Yes. Because you're dumb,” I said to her. I heard her mutter a string of curses in reply.
“Are you two ignoring me?” Akeno’s voice screamed out over the thunder. Asia, who was nearby, squeaked in fright as another bolt headed towards her.
I casually raised another [Lightshield] and blocked this attack just like the first one. Akeno was glaring at me for how easily her attack was blocked. You know, she was kind of a one-trick pony when I thought about it. All she really ever did was shoot lightning.
