Chapter 32: Fall of Khaos, Part 1

Khoas Brigade [Base Of Operations]

Naruto led the attack on the organization with his Faction members spilling out of Ophis's personal chambers. The first person he saw was a human male with red hair talking to an older woman who looked like a traditional Japanese lady with dark hair.

Naruto didn't give them a chance to respond to his appearance and fired a hail of magic bullets, killing them instantly and without mercy, just like the rest of his army.

According to Ophis and the memories they have taken for Walburga, while Khaos Brigade has members from all other factions like angels, devils, etc., they all didn't have the same goals; they were just using Ophis' name and power for protection, and in return, she wanted them to help her kick Great Red out of her home.

Each of the Factions that comprised Khaos Brigade had their own sections of the base, with the hero faction being closest to Ophis, then the angels and fallen, then the devils.

"Grayfia, Mephisto, you both know the plan, so you two know what to do," Naruto said as he started to speed away, but not before saying a few more words: "Kill the enemies, but don't you dare die."

The plan was simple: kill everyone in the base. But Naruto wanted to get to the Old Satan faction first before anyone could get away.

Ophis had told him that she locked the base down at his order so no one should be able to get in or out, but Naruto was not stupid enough to believe that Rizevim didn't have a way to escape.

As Naruto was leaving, he sensed a powerful holy presence and knew that it was the holder of the True Longinus. The Satanchia didn't look back because he knew Grayfia would handle the situation.

"Don't you dare let yourself be killed, Grayfia," Naruto said as he entered the section of the base filled by angels and their fallen brethren.

Mephisto and the devil he was in charge of followed closely behind him, the holy beings started to attack as they sensed the demonic aura of the Extra Demon faction.

Mephisto responded by firing several different powerful elemental magics, killing angels and fallen alike. They were his opponents.

Naruto didn't hesitate and kept on going to the devil faction section of Khaos Brigade. He killed several angels who tried to stop him, and even Youkais.

The only thought in the Satanchia's mind as he headed to where he knew Rizevim would be was that he would not show mercy to anyone who stood in his way.

Grayfia vs Hero Faction

Grayfia looked at the major members of the Hero Faction. They had learned about all of them from Walburga's memories.

Cao Cao, the leader and owner of the True Longinus; Georg, the owner of Dimension Lost and a magician; Jeanne, the owner of Blade Blacksmith; Heracles, the descendant of his namesake and owner of Variant Detonation; and Siegfried, the owner of multiple Twice Critical and possessor of several demonic swords.

"I should be honored to face the Queen of Ice from the Extra Demon Faction," Cao Cao said in a condescending tone.

"That you should surrender, give up now and I will spare your lives. Choose to fight and I will show no mercy," Grayfia said in an emotionless voice that sent shivers down the humans' spines.

"You are really arrogant devil, even when you are out numbered by us," Cao Cao said with his sacred gear, the true Longinus, over his shoulder.

"That is only because I sent the majority of the devils that came with me to deal with the other members of Khaos Brigade," Greyfia stated. She had indeed sent most of her reinforcements away when she realized how small the hero faction was. "I am enough to deal with the likes of you."

"You see, this is why I hate the supernatural. They think that they can do what they want, and we humans have to obey them," Cao Cao said as he started to get into a battle stance, making Greyfia frown.

"So this is your answer then," Greyfia said as she saw all the humans before her get ready to attack. "Foolish, you will just be throwing your lives away."

"Maybe so, but we have no desire to kneel to you, Devil," Cao Cao said. "We will win, and then one day, destroy all supernatural races in the world, freeing humans from your kind."

"So be it, we have nothing else to talk about now," Greyfia said as she activated her devil gear and her magic, causing the area to freeze. "Prepare yourselves, humans."

Greyfia back in the underworld was given the information on the Factions within Khaos Brigade and their power so she had a good idea on what to look out for specifically The true Longinus that has a power to render women powerless and Georg the current host of Dimension Lost.

Since she was fighting multiple enemies, some with sacred gears that have the potential to kill gods, Greyfia created 12 clones, each attacking a member of the Hero Faction, while she went after Cao Cao, the most dangerous one.

Before the humans could react, Greyfia and her clones were in front of them, blasting them away from each other with a burst of magic.

Georg vs Clones

The three clones attacked George simultaneously with their ice magic. Greyfia had gained the ability to make clones from watching her husband Naruto do it using his power of Darkness and copied it with her devil gear.

Georg created a barrier of mist with his sacred gear, as Greyfia suspected he would. The human, based on the information she had given, is skilled in magic, and with his sacred gear, he can create barriers and manipulate space.

"You dirty devil, your attacks will never reach me," Georg stated with a smug look. "My power is invincible."

"You really are an idiot," Greyfia's clone said as she watched the human think that just because he defended against a few of their attacks he was untouchable.

"What the hell did you call me a devil?" Georg shouted in anger. He never liked being underestimated, and he took pride in being a genius. Having a rotten devil call him an idiot was a hit to his ego.

"You heard me, human. What are you going to do about it? Cry or throw a tantrum," another clone said.

"I will kill you," Georg stated as a massive cloud of mist started to make its way towards the clones of Greyfia. "I will send you to the dimension gap. You will never be able to come back."

The clones of Greyfia didn't correct Georg in his assumptions that the dimension gap would kill them or that they would be able to return, which was not true, even if they didn't have Ophis on their side.

"You really are a pitiful man," one of the clones said as it dodged the slow-moving mist. "We will show you how pathetic you are before ripping out your sacred gear."

The clone's wife of Naruto had a plan on how to defeat Georg, but she would have to rely on her devil gear. She copied a few powers that are perfect to bypass dimension lost.

Georg wasn't all that strong physically, so she just had to get past his defense, and the fight was over. She had just the abilities to defeat the holder of Dimension Lost.

Jeanne vs Clones

The clone of Three clones Greyfia was dodging the hail of Holy sword the human was sending at her using her sacred gear.

"How is that devil? Do you like my sacred gear's ability?" Jeanne asked with a smug look. "All of my holy swords are strong enough to kill high-class devils."

"It is impressive," one of the clones Greyfia admitted as she looked at each of the highly skilled swords the young woman before her created. "You must have worked hard to get this good with your sacred gear."

"Hehehe, thank you for noticing," Jeanne said with a happy look, even though she continued trying to kill the clones she was talking to. "If you were not a devil, I might have let you go."

The clones of Greyfia used a combination of fire, ice, and several other elemental attacks to destroy the holy swords. The blades were powerful but nowhere near enough to harm her.

"You don't seem to get it, so I will spell it out for you," Greyfia said as she grabbed a holy sword with her bare hand that Jeanne aimed at her head. "You are an impressive young woman, but you are a thousand years too early to defeat me."

It was true; the only people she would have trouble facing were Cao Cao and Georg. The rest were not even worth her time.

Heracles vs Clones

"Tsk, I can't believe I am stuck fighting clones," Heracles said in an arrogant voice as he attacked the clones of Greyfia while he was encased in a destructive aura that exploded on contact.

"So you think you are worthy enough to fight the original?" one of the clones asked as they used magical attacks to slow Heracles down.

"Why would I want to fight a weak woman? The one I want to face is Naruto Satanchia. Once I am done here, I will go kill the original and present her corpse to him," Heracles replied in a cruel tone. "I want to see the type of face he would make."

The clones of Greyfia gave Heracles a look of disdain. The arrogant prick didn't even know that he wasn't worthy enough to lick the boots of a clone, much less fight the original.

These humans were just too arrogant for their own good. While they had potential like Heracles, he possessed a powerful sacred gear, was resistant to magic, and had speed and strength that could compete with high-class devils.

"My my, you really think that you can defeat me, human," one of the clones said as she released a bit of her magic aura, freezing Heracles momentarily, "You are underestimating us and overestimating yourself."

Siegfried vs Clones

"You are surprisingly good at swordsmanship," Siegfried said casually as he battled the three clones of Greyfia, each creating a blade using fire, ice, and wind.

Siegfried now had six arms, his original two and four created by his sacred gear. Each arm was equipped with a demon sword.

"We devils have long lives, so it's not unusual that we pick up some hobbies, such as swordplay," a clone answered as she slashed at the man's neck. He blocked the attack and retaliated.

"It must be nice to be able to live for almost forever," Siegfried said as he used one of his swords to create an explosion to create some distance between him and the clones.

"It has its perks, you sound like you're interested in becoming a devil," the clone of Greyfia stated. She fired a barrage of magical attacks at the human.

"It is not like I want to become a devil; I just envy your long life spans," Siegfried said as he used his swords to block some of the attacks, and he had to dodge others.

"I can understand that," the clone said as they continued the sword fight, the three clones slowly overwhelming Siegfried as he once again used the power of his swords to create some distance from the she-devil, "You look like you are getting tired."

"Why are you doing this?" Siegfried suddenly asked as he had to block a surprise attack from a clone that teleported behind him.

"Lady Isha was attacked by a member of your faction. We are here to take our pound of flesh and erase Khaos Brigade from existence," one of the clones said, as if it were the most obvious thing.

Siegfried looked surprised when he heard that he didn't think anyone in his faction was stupid enough to attack someone from the Extra Demon Faction, especially the mother of the leader of said faction, so blatantly.

"That's not what I am talking about," Siegfried said after regaining his composure. "Why are you drawing out this fight? I am sure you could have ended it a long time ago."

Siegfried had noticed that the clones were not actively trying to kill him but instead it was like they were testing him.

Cao Cao vs Original Greyfia

"Do you really think you can beat me just by dodging?" Cao Cao complained as he was yet to land a hit on the original Greyfia with his spear.

Greyfia didn't reply as she used an ability she copied from Lady Isha that gave her future sight to dodge the barrage of attacks by a frustrated Cao Cao.

As the fight went on, Cao Cao noticed that Greyfia was just dodging and making him use his energy while she conserved all of her own.

"Have you no shame? Fight me instead of just running away from my attacks," Cao Cao declared, but only got an amused smile in return. "Fine, then have it your way. Balance break."

Polar Night Longinus Chakravartin: Itthiratana

A light appeared behind Cao Cao, along with seven identical orbs. As his balance broke and activated the leader of the Hero Faction, he used one of its abilities to rob women of their power, Itthiratana.

"Now I have you, devil," Cao Cao said confidently as he looked at Greyfia. But he lost it when the silver-haired woman attacked him with a spear on ice, showing she had not lost her power. "How, how can you still have your power?"

"That is a secret," Greyfia replied, now on the offensive. "Show me what the true Longinus can do."

"Don't worry, I will do just that, devil," Cao Cao growled out as he got over the surprise at his power failing to work on the she-devil. "I will use my spear to purify your cursed soul, devil."
