Christian continued to use his suit which he had now altered to mimic the look of a dark angel in order to intimidate the Red Circle Azazel fanatics.

Once contacting Artorus, Christian is given a mission to protect a civilian girl named Alicia Abrams that will be a key to re-assembling the enforcers known as the “Reckoning”.
