When Haru stared at him, Rudolf felt all of his instincts tell him to run away directly. It felt like if he was, he was being stared at by something that he couldn't defeat, but his will wasn't something that anyone could stop, and he was on his holy mission!
"No, I can't leave until I retrieve the right arm of a saint, the West European Church!" Rudolf said without hesitation and didn't look away from Haru. However, sweat kept dripping from his entire body, facing the behemoth in front of him.
'Oh-ho?' Haru didn't use all of his power, but even so, it should be enough to cause a lot of people to run away directly, which was why, he was quite surprised when Rudolf could stand there without running away.
"The right arm of the saint of the West European Church? What do you mean?" Himeragi was confused, but at the same time, she was wondering what made Rudolf feel so scared.
"Hmph! This heretic island uses the right arm of our saint as core! I can't let the arm of our saint be used as something like this, especially to be used for the island of demon! I need to retrieve it no matter what!" Rudolf shouted.
"Even if you sacrifice the lives of 500,000 people?" Haru asked.
"Yes! I don't care about any of them as long as I can retrieve the arm of our saint!" Rudolf used all of his wills to shout, and at the same time, he controlled his secret weapon to give both Haru and Himeragi a sneak attack.
"You're crazy!" Himeragi couldn't think that this old man dared to sacrifice the lives of 500,000 people for the body of the dead people.
Looking at Rudolf, Haru didn't think that this guy was wrong. After all, if he was in Rudolf's position, he would also do the same since no one wanted their ancestor arm to be stolen and used as a core of the island of demon, especially when the West European Church hated the demon to the core. If possible, they wanted to eliminate the entire demon in this world, which was why, even if Rudolf had to sink this island, he would retrieve the arm of the saint no matter what!

"Astarte, do it!" Rudolf shouted.
Suddenly a huge fist appeared from the side and was about to hit Haru!
"Senpai!" Himeragi was startled and was about to help Haru, but...
Haru's arm turned into metallic black color and caught the huge fist directly.
"......" Rudolf and Himeragi.
Ignoring the two reactions, Haru then looked at the huge fist and saw the one who had attacked him was a cute loli with beautiful blue long hair. He then used his "Elemental Sight" and knew instantly that she was a homunculus, but he wasn't that surprised, considering how cute this girl was.
The loli saw Haru catch her attack couldn't help but try to escape. However, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't move no matter what, and in the end, she screamed loudly and summoned another fist to hit Haru, but a grimoire appeared on Haru's hand, and he directly used his seal magic.
Suddenly the loli couldn't use her power, and the huge fists that appeared on her back disappeared, causing her to fall from the sky.
Haru caught the loli on his arms directly, easily, defeating his opponent.
"......." Himeragi and Rudolf.
"Wh - Who are you?!"
Rudolf couldn't maintain his calm any longer since his strongest homunculus in an instant!
Haru looked at Rudolf and shook his head. "If you want to retrieve the arm of your ancestor, why should you go alone? With the influence of your Western European Church, can you use the media to pressure the Japanese Government? I'm sure that once the matter of the arm of the saint is being used as the core of the Itogami Island is known, a wide variety of kingdoms and organizations will help you to retrieve the arm of the saint without hesitation and condemn the actions of the Japanese Government along with all the organization that is related to the accident." He felt that Rudolf was quite stupid since he only came alone to this Itogami Island and only used his muscles to retrieve back the arm of the saint that was used as a core of the Itogami Island.
If Haru was in Rudolf's place, then he would, without hesitation, use the power of the media, condemned the Japanese Government directly, and he was sure that there would be a lot of people who would follow him since the act of the designer of this island was really crazy.
Stealing the arm of the saint and using it for the core of the Itogami Island, no sane people could think such a thing, and only people with one or two lost screws on their heads could think of such a method to create an artificial island.
Haru then started talking, preaching to Rudolf how to retrieve the arm of the saint without causing harm to the people on the island, but at the same time, strengthened the influence of the Western European Church along with causing more hate to the demon directly.
"........"
Listening to Haru's words, both Himeragi and Rudolf could only look at him in a daze.
Somehow Rudolf had an urge to bring Haru back and made him into the new saint of the Western European Church.

"I know that you're angry, and it is also an unforgivable act because your family's body is being used and being trampled, but you should understand the consequence of your actions. What do you think if your plan is successful and you sacrifice the life of 560,000 people on Itogami Island? The best thing is that you'll enter a jail, but in the worst case, all of the followers of the Western European Church will be massacred because of their dangerous idea. Now, not only the body of your ancestor is trampled, but all of your family, including your parents, siblings, children, wife, etc., will be dead and trampled, condemned by all the people in this world. Lastly, the Western European Church will be gone from this world." Haru looked at Rudolf and said, "It is a Holy War between your church and this island, right? Then you should be ready when your church is burnt into ashes, right?"
Haru knew that Rudolf's head was so hot, and Rudolf was also a fanatic, so no logic could enter Rudolf's head, which was why this guy had never thought about the consequence of his action.
"......." Rudolf's face was so pale at that moment.
"Sen - Senpai..." It was her first time seeing this side of him, and rather than being scared, she felt excited.
Haru looked at Rudolf and said, "Well, still, you need to pay for the crime of harming several demons." He was too lazy to talk with Rudolf now and directly kicked him, making him pass out. "Well, this matter has ended now." He then looked at the loli on his arms and said, "I've defeated your master. From now on, you'll be mine."
"......"
The loli stared at Haru for a while, then nodded. "Accepted. You'll be my master from now on."
"My name is Kasugano Haruka. What about you?" Haru asked.
"Astarte," Astarte said.
Haru patted Astarte's head and said, "Please take care of me from now on, Astarte."
"........" Astarte stared at Haru for a while and didn't understand why her face was hot. "Error. Please say it again."
"......." Haru.
Looking at the interaction between Haru and Astarte, Himeragi frowned and couldn't feel slightly jealous. Still, at the same time, she was wondering whether her senior was a lolicon at this moment.
