Who's this jester?
Rias seems like she wants to start a long-ass conversation with him, but I'm not in the mood for that.
I've had enough of being interrupted before starting the daily training session.
"Hey, you, Coca-thing," I shout to the guy, whose na I've already forgotten.
Whatever, I'm sure he'll realize that I'm referring to him.
"What did you say?!" he cries out, losing his composure.
This guy has so issues with his temperant. Nevertheless, judging by the number of wings he has, his arrogance, his triangular face, and everyone's reaction to him, he should be strong.
At least, stronger than the insects I've t up until now.
Leaving that clown aside, who's the other guy that's beside Kiba? He seems like a nice guy to out and have a drink with.
Well, he can't do much being in the state he's in right now.
"So, is that thing supposed to be strong?" I ask nonchalantly.
"Yes," Akeno replies solemnly, "He's the leader of the Fallen Angels."
Sensing sothing, I observe the outskirts of the academy and see the student council mbers all flying and using their demonic magic.
A few monts later, a barrier made of demonic energy encompasses the whole academy.
It looks strong, but my guts tell that if I flick it once, it will shatter like brittle glass.
"I don't know who you are," Coca-Cola says before summoning a floating chair with so extra decorations out of thin air and continuing, "But you will be entertaining ."
"Wrong," I reply, "You will be the one entertaining ."
He doesn't react to my words and just continues to sit on his "throne" brimming with arrogance before saying, "I will first have you play with my pet."
The mont he says so, a light appears at the bottom of his floating "throne" before a green energy beam is released which directly strikes the ground underneath it.
There, a magic circle appears before flas cover the whole area above it. A few seconds later, two giant three-headed hounds erge from within the flas.
"That's Cereberus," Akeno says with shock, "The Guard Dogs of Hell."
Screw this, I'm too tired to fool around today.
Utilizing Holy Slash, I behead the guy next to Kiba as well as so fat guy that was hiding in the distance.
"What?!", the arrogant Fallen Angel yells, "You You're not a Devil?"
As I thought. Even if one is strong, they must focus to be able to see my Rework.
"You guys go and deal with the dogs," I order Rias and the co.
--
About three minutes have passed since I've given them the order. During this ti period, they managed to kill both of the Cereberus.
I was pleasantly surprised by how much they've improved. Particularly Rias.
She did exceptionally well, ordering the others while also fighting, herself.
And so, they managed to do it within a relatively short ti-period, and not get injured even once during the whole process.
Looking over to the guy who's pridefully watching everything from on top of his throne, I prepare to take him down in one strike.
"This is probably going to be overkill" I mutter before jumping dozens of ters into the air.
[Boost!]
Ddraig's voice resounds within my head as I fly toward the throne.
-Ittou Shura
The next mont, I find myself in front of the Fallen Angel who has yet to realize what's coming for him.
My arm drawn back, I feel like a vortex is being ford by my fist as I channel Destruction into my hand before punching the jester.
Directly after my punch connects with his face, a grand shock-wave is released, shattering all the glass within the barrier, before the barrier itself.
Realizing the force contained within my punch is too much, I imdiately weaken the vectors to keep the damage to a minimum.
Nevertheless, I witness the whole "throne" disintegrate as the one who was sitting on it a few seconds ago now non-existent.
The clouds in the sky all fade away as silence ensues.
I cancel the Boosted Gear and Ittou Shura before descending to the ground.
Suddenly, I feel another presence nearby.
Looking the direction I felt it from, a man wearing a white dragon-like armor enters my sight.
Albion
"This is troubling," the man in the armor says.
"Azazel told to bring him back, however, it seems like that's impossible now."
The man looks at and says,
"So, you're the current owner of the Boosted Gear?"
Sensing the pride exuding from the guy, I can tell that he's confident in fighting with .
"So what if I am?" I reply.
"Nothing. It's just that as my arch-rival, you'd need to do better than what you did a while ago," he states.
"Oh, is that so?" I say before vanishing from where I am and reappearing in front of him.
I pull out Excalibur from my ring and slash in his direction.
However, the slash doesn't make contact with his body as he swiftly moves away before raising his arm and shouting,
"Divine Dividing!"
The next mont, I feel a wave of foreign energy entering my body. It seems like it wants to suck a great amount of my powers out, however, before it can do so, my own body reacts by expelling the energy.
{Berserk: Torntor utilized.}
Feeling my strength and speed as well as precision all increase at once, I activate the Boosted Gear.
[Boost!]
-Godspeed.
Appearing right in front of the guy with enough montum to push him back by air current alone, I discard Excalibur as I punch him at the center of his armor, directly crushing it.
The guy is launched with terrific speed into the distance before finally crashing into a building.
Using Rework to change the way I look, I move over to where he is at and send several Holy Slashes at him.
In response to my flurry of attacks, the guy once again raises his arm before shouting,
"Divine Dividing!"
This, however, affects neither nor my attack in any way, as his armor gets torn apart by the Holy Slashes.
Appearing in front of him, I kick him in the mouth with enough force to shatter the ground all around us.
Here I stand, peering into the broken dragon-head as humans scream all around , running away with all they've got.
"There is no "arch-rival" or anything for that matter. You are weak. Stupidly weak. So, rather than spouting such words with pride, I suggest you go back to wherever you ca from."
Should I let him go or not?
Firstly, I don't know much about him other than the fact that he's arrogant and overconfident. So, I can't break his mind just yet.
Secondly, he should be able to make contact with more big-shots, from the way he spoke earlier.
And lastly,
"Ddraig, take a look at your nesis."
[What?]
Giving Ddraig the opportunity to see through my eyes, I wait for his reaction to this.
[Albion?]
"Ddraig" A voice similar to that of Ddraig responds.
[It seems like this is where it ends.]
"What are you talking about?", the voice resounds once again.
[Your chances of winning against this guy are none-existent. He's abnormal.]
"He might be a little strong, but that doesn't an my partner is weak!", cos the response from Albion.
"You do realize that I can crush his head right now, right?" I chuckle before I say.
Albion shuts up, most likely concerned about how I'm going to handle matters from here.
"What's the na of this guy," I inquire as I press my foot onto the skull of the user.
"Vali Lucifer," ca a response almost imdiately.
Lucifer? That's intriguing.
[[You're not killing him?]]
"I'm not sure. What do you think of this, Tia?"
[[It's your choice. Although, personally, I would've killed him the mont he disrespected .]]
"Oh? Even though I 'disrespected' you back in the Familiar Forest?"
[[That's different. One should know when to fight and when to not.]]
"I never would've thought that I would hear such words from a prideful dragon."
[[Hmph.]]
Putting my focus back to Vali who's barely alive at the mont, I think of the choices available to .
However, I suddenly feel another presence nearby.
I check it out and am surprised to find a black-haired woman with cat-like features hiding nearby.
She reminds of Koneko, to the point that I'm beginning to suspect if they're related sohow.
Now that I think about it, Koneko did ntion having an older sister.
So, how do I get her to co with peacefully? Obviously, trick her.
First, I will have her trade herself for Vali's life if that's what she's here for.
Albion will tell Vali about it, which will piss him off and plant a seed of uncertainty within him.
I can take advantage of that later on, once I've gotten a grip on his personality to enrage him and loot Albion from him.
The other reason for doing this is that the girl will most likely accompany peacefully if she's weaker than Vali, as she will probably think that Vali and whoever is with him will co to her rescue.
Not only will this attract the attention of several individuals that I could potentially loot abilities from, it will also help resolve Koneko's past.
In other words, I lose nothing from doing this, and only gain from it.
