The deadline was very short and he had no chance of making a good plan other than attacking the exorcist directly when they arrived at the airport.
In fact, he was quite worried, but ended up dismissing it, he had already done this several times before. He had entered and invaded Church territory, robbed the nuns and corrupted them, to make sure that this time everything would be all right, for he had confidence. Not to mention that he was also bringing all his pariah, as strong as this exorcist was, there was no way he was going to stand a chance against him and all of his pair.
So okay, he believed in luck too, he had never failed him before, after all, what reason was there to think it wouldn't work this time too?

Ewald was driving the car as he wore an impassive face as he looked out over the forest landscape surrounding them. His hand rolled over and controlled the steering wheel as he found a turn in the path of his car.
In the seat to the left was Asia Argento, who wore a nun outfit like the one she wore during her time as a Holy Maiden.
Currently, they were on their way to the Church to meet Vasco and some people who were ready to receive him for completing his mission of bringing Asia Argento to the Church and restoring her title and reputation.
"Tell me what your plan is first..."
It was yesterday when Asia told her her decision and what she wanted, after which they instantly executed the plan Gilgamesh had made. And so he explained to everyone, explained how the plan would go and what role everyone would play.

Ewald had to admit, the plan was quite simple and at the same time effective at the same time... Simple was better sometimes. It was simple... Very simple and very common to use...
"It's very simple... Are you sure it's going to work?"
He asked the boy if it would work. The plan was quite simple and yet... The boy just shrugged and smiled.
"It's simple, yes, but you should know that it's not uncommon to achieve great things using a simple plan."
Well, when he put it that way, it was clearly true, sometimes the simple thing turned the table the other way. Also, if he rethought the plan now, it was actually quite effective and the chance of it working was also great.
It was a simple and clear plan, but it was well thought out he had to admit.
"Nervous, Miss Asia?" Ewald asked when he saw Asia fidgeting in her seat.
"Yes, yes" Asia stammered honestly, she was quite nervous about this plan. It wasn't like she didn't believe Gilgamesh-san, she knew and trusted him that it would work, but she couldn't help but feel nervous.
Ewald just gave the nun a reassuring smile, knowing what the experience was like.
"Don't worry Miss Asia, take a deep breath and let it flow through your mouth slowly, it will calm your nerves." He comforted her.
Asia did as the cardinal told her, taking a deep breath and exhaling through her mouth slowly. As soon as she did that, she felt a small part of her mind relax a little.
"Thanks Father..."
"You're welcome, child." Ewald replied gently as he continued to focus on his path.
There was a momentary silence between them as they continued to look down the path of the vehicle they'd entered. Ewald's face was impassive and calm, while Asia's face held a small amount of nervousness, the only sound that could be heard was the sound of the rolling car.

It was Ewald who broke the silence, his eyes narrowed on the road in front of him and he slammed on the brakes, stopping the car, making Asia let out an 'EEK' in surprise. Excalibur's wielder looked down the street away from his position.
To most naked eyes it was empty, there was nothing there except the cement and the smooth road. However, out of nowhere, suddenly, a green magic circle appeared and the symbol of the Astaroth clan came to life.
The light took over the entire street for a moment, and as soon as it appeared it disappeared, and when it did, in the middle of the street was Diodora Astaroth in all his glory.
Flashback.
"The plan is simple, Cristaldi-san. We currently have something he wants." Gilgamesh said while looking at Asia.
"H-uh?"
Ewald's eyes took on a glimmer of understanding at this, not only he but Valerie and Mordred as well, but this one also had a small horrified look in his eyes.
"Gilgamesh!" Valerie said in horror. "You can't think of-"
"Why can't I? It's our best advantage." Gilgamesh cut her off, his face grim: "Diodora wants Asia, we bait him using her, it's that simple. We'll pull him out and then finish him off for what he's done to all those nuns and maidens." He stated.
"But using Asia is-"
"I won't do this unless Asia agrees." Gilgamesh interrupted her again as he turned to Asia and his features softened: "Asia, I clearly need your help with this, but if you don't, fine, I'll think of another plan..."
Asia really felt very uncomfortable, not only did the Church come and try to recruit her back and she had to choose between Gilgamesh-san and come back to the Church again, but it was also revealed that the devil she had helped had actually manipulated her.
In all of Asia she wasn't a bad girl, that wasn't her nature, she was a kind person. Even if she had been manipulated, if Diodora asked for forgiveness, she would probably give it to him.
However, after talking to Sebastian-ojisan during her stay here, she realized that the world wasn't just black and white. Not on the level of someone wise or ancient, but she at least knew there were gray lines between black and white.
She preferred to choose the white line, of course, but it was also inevitable that the gray path would follow, no matter what you did, even if it was a 'white' line action, the gray would also be affected. For example, if you rescued someone from a thief, it would be seen as a noble action.
But what about the thief? What if the thief had his family waiting for him, hungry for food? What if he had kids just one year old? It became clear that if the thief was caught, the fate of his children would be sealed.
When Sebastian asked her what he should do, she got no response except for silence.
Asia didn't care if Diodora tried to manipulate her and if he asked for forgiveness, she would give it as long as Diodora was really willing to change. But what about those nuns? And the fellow maidens who had been corrupted?
She couldn't... When thinking about what happened to them, she couldn't... After hearing what Sebastian-ojisan said about how the world worked... What Diodora did...
"I…I'll help…" Asia replied with firm determination in her eyes.

8 143Dispatches from the Inter-galactic
Dispatches From The Inter-Galactic is a series of loosely related satirical stories which take place in a galaxy full of various interstellar civilizations and numerous space faring species generally described as consentients. This series is set in a galaxy which take place in a similar but not entirely unlike the galaxy in which my series Up in Space takes place While there are numerous themes related to interstellar life, several of the stories directly relate to specific themes such as; The pan-galactic ramifications to the use of supersymetrical energy sources (often drained from intera-located alternate and pocket realities.) the use of which by most interstellar civilizations is steadily increasing the overall amount of Dark Matter. This is increasing the mass of the galaxy and results in the occasional rips in inter-dimensional space as well as an overall increase in supernova activity. It is also speeding up the approach of the galaxy in Andromeda, which is of concern to several long lived civilizations; The Morphoids, a race of shape-changing consentients who are capable of using the space lanes created by the use of supersymetrical sourced energy to spread throughout the galaxy. They are currently viewed as threat number one by many space-faring species; and Xeno and exo-sexuality, as many species try to figure out what sort of enjoyment they can have with many of the species they encounter in space (only some of which are carbon-based, or more rarely, humanoid in appearance). This also relates to the altering of species to make reproduction somewhat easier for those with rather complicated lifestyles. A major force in this area of pursuit is the galactic visiteering industry, which promotes the ‘uplifting’ of more primitive planet-bound near-consentients.
