“Jenovia, we are the Lord’s children, how can we accept the devil’s food?”
“I believe that only when we are well-fed can we complete our mission, and God will forgive us.”
"I~"
'Gurgle~'
Just as Irina was about to retort, her stomach started growling again, much to her dismay.
What nobility and luxury? Those are things people think about only when they're well-fed. Nowadays, they can't even afford to eat, let alone anything else.
"Hmm? This is the taste of faith."
Suddenly at that moment, Genovya's nose twitched slightly, and she looked towards the end of the street.
There, a blonde girl in a school uniform was walking over carrying a bag full of vegetables.
This was none other than Asia. She had come out to buy groceries. To celebrate Kong Yang's recovery, Hilde and Yoruda were going to prepare a big meal, but they were out of some side dishes, so she had made this trip.
"Um, are you hungry?"
Just then, Asia walked up to the two of them.
Seeing Irina Zifang lying on the ground, dizzy with hunger, he immediately asked her a question.
"This is a test from the Lord."
"If you don't mind, have some of this."
Asia took out a loaf of bread, which she had bought at the supermarket and intended to have for tomorrow's lunch.
"Thank God for His blessings, and thank you, kind little girl."
Genovya and Irina then took the bag of bread, opened it, and each ate half of it.
Although it wasn't much, this hard-won food was already a stroke of good fortune.
"Thank you so much. My name is Irina Wisteria, and her name is Xenovia Quata. We are the Holy Sword Wielders of the Church. We haven't eaten for two days. Thank you so much."
'Thump~'
"Idiot Irina, you've revealed all our secrets."
"You're the idiot, Genovya the idiot! They gave us food, so what if we said something?"
“We are on a classified mission, how could you tell an ordinary person?”
"So what? She smells of faith, she's a child of God, what does it matter?"
The two started arguing again, and Asia's face stiffened slightly.
The church members, the Holy Sword Wielders, have come here on a secret mission.
Each piece of information shocked her immensely, and also brought a subconscious sense of inferiority.
Because they were all holy sword wielders of the church, while she was just an exiled nun—the difference was like heaven and earth.
"Um, I have something to do, so I'll be going now."
Asia spoke first, then prepared to leave, feeling very uncomfortable staying there.
"Okay, but thank you for your generosity."
"It's fine."
Goodbye.
"Goodbye."
Asia bid farewell to the two and quickly left.
Meanwhile, Irina watched Asia's retreating figure with a face full of emotion, realizing that there were still many good people in this world.
However, Genovia frowned slightly. She felt that the girl looked familiar, as if she had seen her somewhere before.
Upon seeing her blonde hair, Genovya immediately remembered.
“Irina, doesn’t she look familiar?”
"Yes, it does look familiar."
“If I’m not mistaken, she might be a former saint who was recently expelled from the church.”
"Former Saintess?"
"That's right, that saintess who possessed the divine artifact, the Smile of the Virgin Mary, but also had the ability to heal demons, so she was expelled from the church."
"How could that be? The scent of her faith is very strong; how could she be a witch?"
"This is also what I care about most."
Genovia's expression was very serious; she had felt something was off about this mission from the start.
Now we see Asia again, who is still a believer in the Lord, but has been expelled and labeled a witch.
All of this made her feel that the church was definitely hiding something.

Back in her apartment, Asia finally breathed a sigh of relief; it was only here that she felt at ease.
Just then, Ylva walked over.
"Isia, did you just buy it?"
"I've bought it, Sister Yuluda."
"That's wonderful, thank you so much, Asia, for making you come all this way."
"It's alright. Your Highness's willingness to accept me is already a great favor."
"How pitiful, Asia."
"Hehe~"
Asia smiled immediately, and Yuluda rubbed Asia's little head.
Such a gentle and delicate Asia would evoke a protective instinct in anyone, and Yuluda was no exception.
After receiving the vegetables, Yuluda headed towards the kitchen. Hildy was still busy inside, and now that everything was ready, she wanted to help out.
As soon as Yuluda left, Asia's smile vanished, replaced by worry.
The two holy sword wielders from the two churches have come to this remote Far East with a secret mission. This information made her hesitate, unsure whether to tell Kong Yang.
On the one hand, even though she was expelled from the church, she never resented anyone; she just felt that she hadn't done enough.
Now faced with this situation, she wanted to protect the church's secrets, but she also wanted to repay Kong Yang for taking her in. The conflict between the two made her very conflicted and hesitant.
"What are you doing here, Asia?"
Just as Asia was standing at the door, hesitating, several people walked in.
It was none other than the Sona Kin, led by Tsubaki, whose gathering place had long been located in Kongyang.
"It's nothing, I just got back too."
"Let's go in together then. I brought some snacks. You can choose first, otherwise they'll eat them all up."
"Thank you, Tsubaki-neechan."
"You're welcome, Asia."
If the kitten is Rias's mascot, then Asia is Kong Yang's mascot now.
Soon, everyone arrived at the restaurant, where all sorts of delicious food were served.
Kong Yang was holding Cang Na in the living room, and no one dared to disturb them at this moment.
Not long after, less than twenty minutes later, all the dishes were served, and the table was full of all kinds of delicious food.
"Your Highness, dinner is ready."
"it is good."
Hearing Hilde's call, Kong Yang responded and pulled Cang Na up. The two of them came to the dining table like a newlywed couple.
Xunba Bing and the others looked at Cang Na, whose 'heart' had grown so much, and they were all filled with envy. Cang Na used to be one of the worst among them, but now she had reached the top.
"They all smell delicious, Hildy. Your cooking skills have improved a lot."
"I'm glad Your Highness enjoys it."
"Your Highness, I did too."
"All is well, Yuluda did a great job too."
These two sisters are so cute and lovable.
Everyone else looked at Hilde and Yorda with smiles on their faces; this pair of maids was truly enviable.
Even Cang Na felt the same way; to have such a maidservant by one's side was an incredible stroke of luck.
"Alright, stop staring and start eating."
"Yay, chicken leg, here I come!"
"Put the braised pork aside."
"Really delicious."
"It's delicious."
"Mine, this is mine."
In an instant, the entire dining table turned into a feast, but of course, the main characters were only the five members of the Xunba Gang.
Kong Yang was quite satisfied with the dishes that Xiludi had carefully prepared. He had only been learning for a short time, yet he could already cook Chinese cuisine so well.
Everyone at the table enjoyed the meal, except for one person.
Because she had something on her mind, Asia wasn't in a good mood and only ate a small amount of food in front of her.
Cangna noticed her unusual behavior and felt a little uneasy.
She looks like she has something on her mind, but Aisha, what could possibly be on her mind? Her face can't hide anything.
Just as Kong Yang and the others were happily eating lunch, on the other side, at Kuoh Academy, Rias and the others welcomed the arrival of the church duo.
Inside the Supernatural Research Club's building, Rias sat in her seat, looking at the two people in front of her.
As a demon, Rias was extremely sensitive to the holy aura emanating from the holy swords on the two of them, after all, these were the natural enemies of demons.
In this world, any holy sword is the nemesis of demons. Anyone who is cut by it will at least suffer a minor injury, and in severe cases, they may even be seriously injured. That's how powerful the sword is.
"You must be Rias Gremory, the princess of the Gremory family and the person in charge of the devil in Kuoh City."
Looking at Rias, Xenovia spoke first, her words revealing her disdain and disgust for demons.
Rias and the others were not surprised by this. Angels and demons are mortal enemies, and as a church under the command of angels, it is naturally also a mortal enemy of demons. When mortal enemies meet, it is impossible for them to be peaceful.
"Did you come here just to provoke me? If that's the case, can I take this as a declaration of war against the Gremory family?"
“Rias Gremory, we are here on our own mission. Nothing else matters to us. And as the Holy Sword Wielders of the Church, we have no fear of you demons.”
"Oh? Such a big mouth?"
'Boom~'
The magical pressure of the superior demon descended instantly, pressing down directly on Genovya and Irina.
A divine power surged from the two of them, instantly dispelling Rias's oppressive aura.
Then, they saw Genovya and Irina each take out a weapon, and the holy power emanating from these weapons made Rias and the others extremely uncomfortable.
In the ancient war between the three races, the holy sword of heaven, Excalibur, was shattered, leaving only seven fragments.
Later, an alchemist was asked to reforge it, creating seven new holy swords. Although they were not as powerful as the original Excalibur, each of these holy swords was still a sacred weapon.
Genova and Irina are the wielders of the Destruction Sword and the Mimicry Sword, two of the seven holy swords.
Upon sensing the sacred aura and the two new holy swords, Kiba Yuuto, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but unleash a murderous intent.
Although his inner conflict has been resolved, it doesn't mean he will forget the Holy Swords. The tragedy that befell him and his companions was caused by these Holy Swords.
