Watching Kaiser comfort Asia, Raynare's stunning face twisted into a cold smile.
"Flirting here—isn't that a bit too dismissive of us?"
Though Asia's power surprised her, Raynare believed she still held control.
"Lady Raynare, let's wipe them out already."
"Fine."
As the words left her mouth, black wings unfurled.
Whoosh!
Air roared as Raynare, Mittelt, and Kalawarna soared, encircling Kaiser's group from three directions.
Hum!
Air vibrated as light power gleamed in their hands.
Visible spears of light formed, ready to hurl.
But before they could, Kaiser raised a hand casually.
Brilliant magic circles shone on the ground.
Next instant!
Three crimson chains shot out like pythons, closing in on the trio.
So fast.
Raynare's pupils shrank; they tried to dodge.
But they were too slow.
In a blink, Raynare, Mittelt, and Kalawarna felt their bodies tighten.
The chains, alive, wrapped and constricted swiftly.
They looped wrists, crossing and climbing.
Slender waists bound, then arms.
Hands opened; half-formed light spears trembled, dissolving into sparks.
Their power sealed.
They could only watch chains creep down legs, finally coiling ankles.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
The three crashed to the ground, yelping in pain.
"Damn it, release us!"
They shouted, but chains tightened, wrinkling neat clothes.
Suddenly!
Their legs clamped instinctively, voices cutting off.
Eyes wide, faces flushed like ripe apples.
Shiho Miyano's mouth twitched, expression odd.
"Master, where'd you learn that?"
"Plenty online."
Kaiser admired his work, stroking his chin. "How about you try it?"
He'd used this in Akame ga Kill's world.
Time to refine.
Now it looked more… artistic.
Raynare breathed heavily, humiliated. "You devils better release us."
"Or prepare for war with fallen angels."
Kaiser waved, pulling them close, scoffing. "War over three rule-breaking two-winged fallen angels?"
"You trying to make me laugh?"
Golden blood seeped from his finger.
"Master, reincarnating them?" Vermouth asked, surprised. "They're fallen angels."
"And hostile."
Hearing Vermouth, Raynare snarled, "I advise against it."
"Even if the ritual works, I'll kill you given the chance."
Shiho hesitated. "Master, just kill them."
Though new to devilhood, time with Akeno and others taught her devil lore.
Betraying masters happened.
"No worries. They won't get the chance."
Vermouth didn't press, roughly tearing their outer clothes.
Freed constraints bounced forward exaggeratedly.
Kaiser nodded approvingly.
As expected of angels.
Not just looks—figures flawless, each unique.
Then!
He dripped blood on their skin sequentially, inscribing peerage marks.
Hum!
Brilliant light flashed, mysterious runes appearing.
Kaiser focused; three attribute panels displayed.

…
Identical skills.
Because they were all fallen angels? Or something else?
But…
Kaiser raised a hand; brilliant light power flashed.
His expression odd.
A devil wielding angelic power?
Most importantly, [Fallen Angel Transformation].
Didn't that mean he could play fallen angel on the side?
Meanwhile, the trio's fallen angel wings vanished, replaced by devil wings and tails.
They looked shell-shocked, faces pale.
"I suggest accepting reality, or I can't guarantee what happens."
Kaiser snapped; chains vanished.
Freed, the three paused, then glared murderously at Kaiser.
"Damn you—what have you done, turning us into…" Raynare began.
"Aaah!"
Screams erupted.
Their bodies convulsed like electrocuted, writhing on the ground.
Soul-deep agony made them roll.
"???"
Shiho and the others stared blankly.
What was happening?
