----------------------------------------------------------
Lucifer-once named Lucifiel-was the Archangel who led all angels.
Later, after refusing to worship Adam and angering "God," he abandoned the title of fiel. He led one-third of the angels in a sky-shaking battle against Michael and was ultimately defeated.
After falling for nine days and nine nights, he reached Hell.
The Old Testament, Book of Isaiah, Chapter 14, Verse 12, records this briefly:
"How you have fallen from heaven, morning star, son of the dawn!"
Although the more common interpretation holds that the "morning star" referred to a mortal tyrant rather than Lucifer, with the many versions myths have accumulated over time, such discrepancies were hardly strange.
As for the claim that Lucifer and Michael were brothers, it could be explained by angels being regarded as brothers in general-or because both Lucifer and Michael were Archangels, Vice-Regents of Heaven.
"Bad compatibility with you? Why?"
Hearing that, a hint of confusion flashed across Erica's face.
But before Hiro could respond, understanding dawned on her expression, and she began explaining on her own.
"Is it because of Melqart? The demon god Baal is the name Melqart took in other regions. He's a sworn enemy of all Catholic angels-archangels and seraphim included. If the descending Heretic God is the Simulacrum Dei Michael, then the compatibility really is terrible for you."
Melqart?
No. No, no, no.
It wasn't that simple.
Hiro had no intention of explaining further. He turned his gaze to the silver-haired girl still kneeling on one knee and spoke calmly.
"Liliana, you may rise. From now on, you are my second Knight. Any objections?"
"None!"
Still kneeling, Liliana answered without hesitation.
"Liliana Kranjcar is willing to become the sharp blade in Your Majesty's hand, to be commanded by you!"
After finishing, she stood up, her expression solemn, and took a position opposite Erica.
"You'll be serving His Majesty together with me from now on. Aren't you happy, Lili?"
Erica naturally looped her arm around Hiro's left arm, flashed a foxlike grin, and teased her.
"Y-Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"
A faint blush crept across Liliana's cheeks.
She stole a glance at Hiro, and seeing no displeasure on his face, she had no choice but to redirect her frustration.
"Erica! That behavior is extremely rude toward His Majesty! Let go immediately! What if you anger His Majesty?!"
She scolded Erica in a soft but urgent voice, all while secretly watching Hiro's reaction.
Hiro found it mildly amusing.
She wanted to maintain her dignity as a Knight, yet didn't want Erica to get ahead of her in certain areas.
If you can't stand it, why not join in?
I still have one hand free.
Through his Haki, Hiro sensed an Archangel with twelve pairs of wings and a male form standing dozens of kilometers away, above St. Peter's Basilica in the Vatican.
Whether that figure was Michael would require visual confirmation from God's Eye.
The moment Hiro sensed him, the Angel sensed him in return.
The Angel turned his gaze in Hiro's direction.
A blood-red longsword materialized in his hand.
Then it was thrown.
The blade tore through the air at a speed far exceeding sound, streaking toward them like a bolt of crimson lightning.
Tch.
Hiro frowned, casually shaking off Erica's arm and flicking her toward Liliana.
"That Angel found me. Both of you, retreat. Far away."
Sent flying like a rag doll, Erica's expression hadn't even settled before she was struck by shock.
"Found you?! We're dozens of kilometers away from the Vatican!"
Seeing the identical expressions on Erica and Liliana's faces, Hiro replied casually.
"It's only dozens of kilometers."
Besides-
A "Lucifer" was standing right here.
In the brief exchange of words, the blood-red longsword had already arrived in front of him.
The blade flowed like liquid blood and carried a faint scent of rust, making it hard to associate with a twelve-winged Angel.
With Erica and Liliana behind him, dodging was not an option.
Hiro raised his right hand.
He curled his ring finger and pinky, extending his thumb, index, and middle fingers.
Without flourish, he reached out and grasped the sword tip.
1. Unarmed Catch - Activate.
"Your Majesty!"
Liliana, seeing the attack through her spiritual vision, cried out in alarm.
That was an attack from a Heretic God.
Very likely an Authority.
Even His Majesty couldn't possibly stop that barehanded!
What was he thinking?!
Then it hit her.
She and Erica were standing directly behind him.
If Hiro dodged, they would be struck first-reduced to dust.
...Is His Majesty doing this for us?
"Erica, move!"
Throwing aside all hesitation, Liliana grabbed Erica's wrist and pulled her away from Hiro at full speed.
"Oh-oh!"
Dragged several steps, Erica finally snapped back to her senses.
Liliana really is more reliable than that Erica girl.
Hiro noted this idly.
Buzz. Buzz.
Three fingers clamped tightly around the sword tip.
No matter how violently it trembled, no matter how fierce its intent, it couldn't break free from his grip.
After a brief stalemate-
Pop.
The blood-red longsword shattered.
At the same time, a furious roar echoed from afar.
"Great sinner who betrayed the Lord! What right do you have to exist in this world?!"
The voice was powerful enough to make Hiro's ears ache.
Liliana and Erica, who hadn't fled far, heard it clearly as well.
"Betrayed the Lord?"
Hiro rose into the air, heading straight toward Michael.
He spoke casually, as if complaining to himself.
"I never believed in him to begin with."
"So how could I betray him?"
