Chapter 131 - Chapter 131: Cute Himejima Akeno

As one of the main people involved in this incident, and given her status, it was most appropriate for Rias to speak at this time.

Seeing the gods turn their gaze toward her and realizing this, Rias spoke up.

"Our 'Earth Pantheon Alliance' has just been established. We have both the obligation and the responsibility to maintain peace."

Rias's tone shifted as she continued, "And as for those terrorists who intend to break that peace, they must naturally be purged through means of iron and blood."

Hearing this, the gods couldn't help but gasp.

Good grief, calling it'slaughtering a chicken' was just a figure of speech, but you actually intend to kill the chicken.

"The Five Great Clans of Japan have significant problems with their own systems. Over the centuries, they have bred countless darkness. This is a piece of intelligence I possess."

Rias opened a Subspace and casually handed out several copies of the documents to the gods.

Looking at these documents, the corners of the gods' mouths twitched.

They weren't interested in such matters; they only needed to know the general situation.

What they cared about more was that this loli, Rias, had a heart that was truly a bit black...

For a unique existence among Devils like Rias, it was only natural for her to have a place in the future 'Earth Pantheon Alliance.'

Because of this, they also wanted to see what kind of methods Rias, the one who 'legendarily' broke the old order of Devils, actually possessed.

"An organization formed out of hatred, Utsusemi... Tsk, just a bunch of lowlifes."

One god sneered.

"Even so, these people are also within the scope of the 'Earth Pantheon Alliance' to handle, are they not?"

Rias said.

"What do you want to do, little girl?"

Azazel looked at Rias and asked straightforwardly, "A complete bloodbath?"

"I'm not that cruel."

Rias shrugged and then said, "I have a 'tiny bit' of confidence in my intelligence. I can uncover at least some of the darkness of all the Five Great Clans."

"How about we temporarily use the laws of my Castlevania to deal with these people?"

Simply put, those who are innocent will be left alone, and all those who are guilty will be rounded up.

Whether it's mining or working hard for the environmental optimization of the world, they can just be used as permanent penal labor.

Calling it penal labor was actually just using them as slaves.

This avoided bloodshed during the founding period of the alliance, kept things clean and tidy on the surface, maintained the dignity of 'allies,' and established the alliance's authority.

And this time, there was no need for the Crimson Butterfly to act. To compete for merit, the high-level personnel of these Pantheons would directly lead elite combatants to charge into the Five Great Clans.

Good grief, Japan originally had no status or power, essentially being a 'no man's land.'

And this move was simply killing the local snakes and directly annexing them.

As expected, this loli's heart was very black.

"Very reasonable."

Azazel also nodded.

Then a chorus of agreement came from the surroundings.

The 'Earth Pantheon Alliance' had to handle this matter before it even began its construction.

And this matter would count as the first cooperation between the various Pantheons.

Although it was a sudden incident, its effect was not small.

As a key figure, Rias was directly taking off.

After all, within the Biblical Pantheon, Sirzechs was her brother, and Michael, under the instruction of the 'God of the Bible,' supported Rias.

The Fallen Angels side also followed their big brother, and since they owed Rias a favor, they could also do her a favor in return.

From various perspectives, although Rias did not participate in this meeting, she had already entered the core of the 'Earth Pantheon Alliance.'

This alliance was led by the Biblical Pantheon, and being favored by the Three Factions of the Biblical Pantheon, Rias could succeed even while sitting still.

So next, with Rias as the guide, the execution personnel were determined.

Rias and the Crimson Butterfly would provide intelligence and information, and each of the Pantheons would assign a portion of execution personnel to directly crush the Five Great Clans.

The remaining people would discuss issues such as the architecture and system of the 'Earth Pantheon Alliance.'

Rias did not participate in those aspects.

Because she had already constructed the architecture from the very beginning; Michael only needed to announce the 'Oracle of the God of the Bible.'

As for the more detailed issues, those tedious and troublesome matters would be left to the various factions to bicker over. In any case, with her prestige, the Biblical Pantheon would directly place her in a high position.

There would be no surprises here, because the God of the Bible was Rias's alternate identity.

Similarly, the alliance of Pantheons would bring various problems that needed to be solved one by one.

Fortunately, some of the problems could be entirely blamed on the 'Other World.'

For instance, The Church's side, after the alliance of Pantheons, would no longer have a reason to act against those large factions and non-human races that did not violate the alliance's laws.

Yet many combatants of The Church had their families killed by non-human races and harbored a strong hatred for non-human species.

Especially those defined as Magic Creatures, such as Devils, Vampires, and so on.

After the alliance of Pantheons, the definition for The Church's combatants would naturally run into problems.

Such problems appeared in the original story and even caused significant incidents.

Fortunately, the revival of the God of the Bible gave The Church a sense of reassurance, which should prevent too much of a commotion.

In a corner of the meeting room, while thinking about these issues, Rias sipped grape juice through a straw.

"Um, Lord Rias."

A tender and nervous voice appeared nearby, making Rias look over.

It was a black-haired girl wearing a shrine maiden outfit.

Her features were delicate, and one could easily foresee that she would definitely be a great beauty in the future.

She was Himejima Akeno. In the original story, because of her mother's death and a falling out with her father, she wandered alone, ended up being hunted by the Himejima Clan, and was saved by Rias to become her peerage.

Of course, that was a matter of the original story and had nothing to do with the current Rias.

Now, Rias was simply her savior.

"What is it, Akeno?"

Rias blinked and asked back.

"Um, that... I came to thank you."

Himejima Akeno said embarrassedly, "I was completely terrified at the time and failed to thank you. It was really wrong of me."

Seeing Rias's smiling face and slight nod, Himejima Akeno felt relieved and gave a very formal bow, saying, "Thank you for saving my life!"

"Mhm."

Rias nodded in response and said, "This world is very complex, and all sorts of troubles come one after another. Even with the protection of parents, there may still be gaps."

"Only one's own strength can defeat all tragedies."

Rias patted Himejima Akeno's head and said, "Work hard to become stronger so that what happened today never repeats itself. Even if something like this happens again, the one who saves you will no longer be me, nor your father, but yourself."

Looking at Himejima Akeno's grateful eyes, Rias had a thought and took out a Devil Chess Piece.

Unlike Crimson's peerage, which was like a toy, the Devil Chess Piece were still a huge opportunity for people in the High School DxD world.

Even for Himejima Akeno, who was the daughter of a Fallen Angels executive, this was the case.
