The next day, Rias went to meet Sona to discuss the problems with the Fallen Angels.
Contrary to Rias, who was more combat-oriented and served as the Executioner of the Execution Temple, Sona was more like an administration officer. She took the role of the Student Council of the Kuoh Academy.
Very similar to Rias, she had only filled three places among her Class Card Servant Peerage, as there were strict requirements for someone to be reincarnated. It was absolutely forbidden to reincarnate ordinary humans, even if they were magicians, and only special ones were allowed, as it was a wasting of the precious Class Cards.
Sona had filled three Classes, namely Caster, Berserker, and Saber.
Caster of her Class Card Servant Peerage was a bespectacled young woman with long straight black hair that extends all the way down to her knees, with split bangs and heterochromatic eyes, with a violet left eye and a light brown right eye. In addition to wearing the Kuoh Academy girls' school uniform, she also wears blue, semi-rimmed glasses with square lenses.
Tsubaki Shinra, a former member of the Shinra Clan and host of the Sacred Gear, Mirror Alice, was able to reflect attacks that were weaker or at the same level as the host.
Her Berserker was a young foreign man with a large physique, looking in his late teens. He has gray hair with long bangs covering his eyes and a handsome face, and the highly well-built body of a warrior.
Loup Garou is a former Werewolf/Human Magician hybrid that traded his human part for the Devil Part. He was the son of one of the Werewolf Chieftains that migrated to the Chthonian Empire and became citizens of the Empire. Loup Garou became a Berserker of Sona's peerage to repay gratitude for the Sitri Family, as they cured his father of illness.
And the final member of the peerage was Saber who was a young girl of pale skin. She was rather a cute girl with long, dark purple hair and sleepy golden eyes. Her hair is tied in a long braid by a bow with a purple skull, reaching all the way down to her hips.
Grim Reaper, Bennia Orcus.
Grim Reapers while were citizens of the Empire, not many could get to high positions within the Empire, as they were looked at with cautiousness as they were once enemies of the Empire that fought them to death and were fanatical followers of their God, Hades. This caused a great deal of distrust to form against the Grim Reapers in the Empire.
"Sona, how are you this beautiful day?"
Asked Rias as she sat down across her friend/rival.
"Probably not as good as you... I take it that your yesterday's mission has been successful?"
Asked Sona as Rias nodded.
"Indeed, and I got even awarded with Mid-Grade Demonic Energy Crystals."
Demonic Energy Crystals became more common as the Baator, formerly known as the Underworld, started recovering to what it was once in the past.
Demonic Energy Crystals were very beneficial for the Devils, as they could absorb the Demonic Energy Crystals to increase their Demonic Energy Reserves and reach a higher class.
Rias was already Ultimate-Class, but only at the initial stage, so several Demonic Energy Crystals would be able to bring her power a significant increase.
"I have come here to notify you that Shirone found a base of Fallen Angels that is trespassing on our territory. Unfortunately, their base is constructed outside of our territory and even has some basic magical defensive circles and formations. From what we know, there are several tens of Fallen Angels, with an unknown number of Rogue Exorcists, that could number in hundreds."
Summarized Rias, as Sona was mildly surprised.
"Someone from the Shinto must let them enter... currently, without either huge effort or brute force, it is impossible to enter Japan without the interference of the Shinto Gods. These Fallen don't have anyone strong or skilled enough to enter, and in such large numbers, it would require at least a Legendary-Class individual very skilled in Spatial Magic, meaning someone from the Shinto Pantheon deliberately; let them enter and cause troubles for us."
Analyzed Sona situation quickly.
Japan doesn't have any Churches or influence of the Catholic Church or its branches, so there was no possibility of their personnel coming to Japan.
These days, after Shinto Gods had started meddling in the affairs of mortals, it was almost impossible to enter the territory of Japan without catching the attention of their Guardians. If someone wanted to enter, he needed to bypass the barrier or force their way.
Bypassing would require a skilled and strong magician with specialization in Spatial Magic, and those were rare even in the Chthonian Empire. Forcing their way was impossible, as the barrier would withstand even attacks from Super Devils for some time.
That left only one option... it was a trap for them.
"Even though Empire has a treaty with the Shinto Pantheon, either side never treated each other as an ally. Especially among Shinto Gods, it caused a lot of dissatisfaction, as they are viewing us as the ultimate enemies. The actions of His Holy Imperial Majesty are proving their doubts, so they want to kill us, but not openly, as that would cause instant war. They want to blame Grigori, which was cause war between Grigori and us, with us annihilating them. In the end, we would be weakened from the war with Grigori to some extent, and most importantly, we would be weakened from the fact that Grigori won't be absorbed into the Empire."
Rias nodded at her friend's analysis.
Among high-ranking personnel of the Empire, it was no secret that sooner or later, Grigori would be merged into the Empire.
With Kokabiel basically deserted the Grigori and now was who knows where there was nothing that was blocking the merger.
Unless some Fallen Angels killed the daughter of the Emperor, sister-in-law of Crown Prince, who was also the daughter of the prominent Chthonian Lord.
