High School DxD EX c4

Chapter 4: Crimson Will[edit]
Part 1[edit]
Airi, Zen, and s.h.i.+n had fought together with the others as the new generation of the Church Trio, and two days after the battle, I was at a café on the Kuou downtown on the afternoon.

After all, the battle at the underground quarry became a serious problem; I could not hide the situation anymore, but the VIPs… Shemhaza, Sirzechs, Michael, Odin, and Zeus could be trusted to be told the truth and keep their mouth shut.

Although all of them would be surprised, they would be convinced entirely since I was the one who told this to them. Well, there must be a G.o.d of time among the different factions of mythologies. However, I still could not comprehend or even saw even the slightest indication of the reason the evil G.o.ds and their underlings from different dimension could make their way and invaded this world in the future.

However, knowing the circ.u.mstances, the VIPs would consider this carefully and gave their consent anyway, so I would contact and secretly discuss with all of them in my private line. Well, I was the one responsible for the central problem in the swirl of this case. I would involve more until the matter is settled.

I would not give any details to the VIPs, just the summary. Not about Asia having been cursed by Loki, Issei’s children who came to this timeline solving it or so they said, and I did not want them to hear about the future weapons, technology, and world situation. They would not let it through that, because this was not something most people are normally talking. This would lead to a major change of history, so this must be completely avoided.

I was with Issei and Rias’ group, who appeared to me at the underground quarry.

“They seem to be a line of ancient weapons made and stored by the Old G.o.ds in the Dimensional Gap, and they awakened suddenly and invaded this world.”

I explained roughly. To put it short, the ones who had fought with me in the Kuou quarry against the enemies were the troublesome Vali team since they had problems with their acquired Gogmagog, although we already knew that Vali and his team got it at the Dimensional Gap…[1]

The club did not seem fully understand it since it was complicated, but they believed in my explanation anyway. Only Rossweisse, who is knowledgeable about this subject, was suspicious… although she still did not find the idea of “messenger from the future” was feasible at the present.

At this time, it would be typical for Rias to hear it from her brother Sirzechs. One thing for sure, we agreed to always take every precaution and keep in contact when we find other [UL]s.

… well, I was carrying a great responsibility in this. The key was to not let Rias and her group know about the children’s true ident.i.ty, as well as solving it before being leaked to other factions. Moreover, the fact that I cooperated with Ise’s children must not be known by any other than myself. In this condition, the best bet for the siblings was to defeat both the [UL] and future Loki coming here at the same time. A very special mission with amazing level of difficulty, I guess…

…well, the good thing was that the children who came here along with me were strong, veteran warfighters[2], so it would be difficult for me to lend a hand to them in this mission. The problem was, they didn’t show manners and att.i.tudes common in this time. If they showed these in public, not only each mythology would be chaotic, but I guess there will be a colossal effect to humans too. It would be one of the greatest changes of history.

Or else, it would be too much for Issei to handle. That was more than enough determination to stop the [UL] from reaching their goals. I made that important decision while I was drinking my favorite green tea latte alone. I had scheduled to meet future Gasper after finis.h.i.+ng my drink… that guy had contacted me earlier.

I set my sight to the unexpected visitor sitting face-to-face with me, who came just as I entered the café. The crimson-haired boy Ex Gremory stared still at me. Right after the Occult Research Club went, I could see Ex used individual magic circle.

“Just a bit earlier and they will be able to see you.”

I said to him as the circle disappeared. I was interested in what he did and the boy just gave the green light for my observation. We hadn’t started any conversation and Ex had kept his mouth shut since we entered the café.

“So what is it that you want to ask me?”

“E, eh… it is…”

Ex just kept silent and put his head down as I stayed in place. I thought he was a bold boy standing at the battlefield like his parents, and he could just speak bluntly and to the point… but now I understood that the son of Ise and Rias could not face a person when he is talking face-to-face. This talk became nowhere, so I decided to ask again.

“You seem appeared all the way right in front of me with purpose. Is there something you want to ask?”

“…”

What was this, from his expressions and att.i.tude I knew he wanted to hear something from me.

This was pointless. I better tried to cut out this conversation.

“Well, let me ask you back. What is future Rias doing? Is she the Head of the House?”

When I said that, his expression changed and Ex started to talk gleefully

“No, she retired and ceded the seat of family head to my oji (uncle)… Milicas-niisama[3]. Okaa-san now expands her business range into many different kinds of industry. We are also Rating Game players, although the game itself was discontinued during the war, after the invasion of the Evil G.o.ds. .h.i.t our world.”

Ex turned his eyes down as he continued,

“Once, Otou-san was also a player of the game. Because he is busy, even trying to present himself in a game is a difficult task.”

When he spoke about Rias, his tone was light, on the other hand, his lips became difficult to move when he talks about Issei.

It seemed like he had some kind of load when telling his father’s story, and I chose not to continue about it.

I had a bit mischievous heart; I tried to talk this out.

“By the way... do you like woman’s b.r.e.a.s.t.s?”

Ex paralysed in fear as he heard the question while sipping his tea.

The tea sipped into his mouth spat out as he coughed after he put back his cup.

“Ugh!”

I wiped the surface hit with his cough with a handkerchief. After his breath became normal, he complained as his face blushed,

“Wh, wh, wh, wh, wh, WHAT DO YOU SAY!?”

Uh-oh! A childish reaction! And it was not as innocent as I was thinking! Wasn’t it bad?

Ex continued after he cleared his throat with a cough and emptied his head.

“You say woman’s b.r.e.a.s.t.s… Well, all of our mothers have large b.r.e.a.s.t.s, so we are convinced that one is called a woman if she is buxom ever since we were toddler. At first, we didn’t recognize a woman if she has small b.r.e.a.s.t.s. When we were little, it was very rude to say that to Sona-obaue[4] so all we could do was stay silent.”.

I wondered what would happen to the kids if the father asked for the mom’s b.r.e.a.s.t.s too… Ah… it seemed like the children had a little ordeal in their education. Poor Sona, she seemed to have gone through a bitter, awful experience from that.

Ex grasped the handkerchief as he tried to vent his anger by burying his face on it.

“Father who just marries women with large b.r.e.a.s.t.s is too erotic! Therefore, his children, including me, are like this! I was the only one being told that [The Oppai Dragon Song] was used as our lullaby song! ”

“I’m sorry; I was the one who wrote that song.”

I apologized immediately. As for the song… Sirzechs and I were the ones who made it.

Really, after being a nuisance for thirty years, the song would not matter anymore to the next generation that they even made it as a lullaby.

Ex panicked as I gave my hand as a sign of apology.

“No, no, it’s not that… no, although this might have sense.”

While some of Ise’s kids had tendency to rush in recklessly, on the other hand, their manners to elders are surprisingly polite and appropriate.

Indeed, several minutes of listening his conversation made me understand this boy. If I compared it with this era, the families supporting the Maous tended to show only slight level of respect in private times. Perhaps because Sirzechs and Serafall tended to show such appearance in private, their sisters Rias and Sona tended to become serious similar to their mothers. Similarly, Ex became very serious due to his sukebe father.

When I thought back, Ise’s other children are also serious. Perhaps being raised by foster parents did gave a major impact in their way of growth.

I became really interested with this and decided to ask more.

“How are Kiba and Vali? Are they alright?”

“Yes, s.h.i.+han[5] Yuuto-san becomes our mentor. Vali-sensei excavated ancient relics from the Old G.o.ds era as well as the original Yondai Maous, studying ruins and artifacts while became obsessed with ramen. The first six months when I became his apprentice, I was ordered to wash the dish every day. Fighting and making ramen are basically the same for him.”

Putting Kiba aside, Vali was… half of my expectations. It was the other half that made this interesting… My goodness, he began doing research… As for the ramen... I had no comments for that.

“However, in the war, he fought alongside the other two…”

They would have become important main vanguards in the future.

The conversation hit, and we continued to talk small details. Ex became jollier as he warmed up to some degree.

“Ehm… how about your dad? That person is the most important in the family.”

We were cut out with someone standing in front of us.

“First Governor Azazel, I have come to pick you up for our superior.”

It was Himejima Kurenai.

With the appearance of his elder brother, Ex swallowed the words he already wanted to say. This father thing… I wanted to ask him if I could meet the future Ise.

Ex seemed to be in surprise when his brother came; I guessed immediately and smiled cheerfully.

“Ex, that’s right. It might be good if you also come. Our boss called you too.”

Kurenai, Ex, and I left the café to move to the designated location.


Kurenai took me to the vast underground s.p.a.ce of Kuou town… where I first met him and the area I often ventured. Since he still had errands to do, he took his leave after guiding us. The eldest son had many things to do…

I can feel an amazing aura as I enter a s.p.a.ce as it has tremendous unknown pressure, and when I looked further two girls stand at the front, one a blonde girl with four hair drills, and two a silver-haired girl with Valkyrie armor. I create a magic circle as a counter measure and tries to keep my sight ahead. So the pressure I felt was not from these two people.

Then, a shadowy figure appear from behind the wall. It was able to pa.s.s through it. When I look at it, a tall, blonde man wearing a black robe. He is very well-built, great physique, with a fearless look. He looks at me with a pair of red eyes. However, his strong, quiet aura are very nostalgic.

The courageous man gives a broad smile, and I walk to greet him.

“h.e.l.lo there, Sensei.”

The smile has some reminiscent to it.

“You too. You must be Gasper.”

The man in robe acknowledge my words… Gasper nods.

“Yes, even if I have changed… I am Gasper Vladi.”

This is… a great surprise. No way, that delicate lad becomes like this. There are no signs of a crossdresser in this manly man. Even with that hair color, there is no sign of feeble atmosphere around him.

“Are you the one in charge with this mission?”

I say this while giving a handshake.

“Yes, I am in charge of the time manipulation of the time travel. Well, I am one of Ise-senpai’s attendant and have known the children since they were born, all of them will follow my commands.”

As Gasper says that, Ex hides behind me, “…but, it’s scary…” he lets out a word, and I keep that in my mind.

After Gasper and I exchanged greeting, we share the information we have in order to plan ahead with the situation, he gives the data of the alien enemy [UL] which are coming to this world.

They come to the past with future Loki in two organization: the Executives, 羅喉七曜, The Collective Seven Magnificent Hunters (apparently based from the seven magnificent samurai) where one of them is called Lord Renzo, and the Four Generals of Invade Fanatics. The Four Generals pulling all of their army of soldiers from the future are supposed to time travel with Loki, but the bulk of their forces are left behind because their time travel are sabotaged by Gasper and the future warriors.

However, the enemy didn’t seem to recognize their Executive, that cylindrical [UL] thing before, let alone they forcibly transported a Pillar of the “Bespa Rekorg”. Gasper and Ise’s children are trying to stop them in advance and fought bravely in this era. Thanks to them, this era’s world does not suffer a major impact yet. I really admire them now.

I ask Gasper

“Guys, since you purposely return back to this time, will this affect the history of each mythology? Plus, you cannot contact Ise’s group in this world.”

Gasper nods,

“We must try not to do a major change in this era and our own time axis, but from looking back further in time, it is true that several branches of world lines have already made. We wanted to keep the proper history for the people, and we cannot let an existence become a major enemy in the future. At this time, the Satan Lord Ajuka Beelzebub is observing the different lines with my companions which will become the key in converging them together. We are one of the advance teams dispatched from the future to extinguish the raging, violent [UL] in the past.”

“The problem is, one of The Collective Seven Magnificent Hunters, Lord Renzo, tried to teleport here. If all the seven hunters come here, they will make a colossal impact on every mythology and it is necessary to avoid that at any costs.”

I have heard that the power of the Seven Hunters each are equal to a Chief G.o.d in each mythology. If they begin to rampage in the past… then it will be my fault. Once this breaks out, I’m going to need to have serious discussion with Sirzechs and the others.

Gasper says with a meek look,

“If that is possible, then…”

Looks like there are countermeasures. I don’t know how, but it will be rea.s.suring if we can avoid an all-out war.

As Gasper and I are talking, the blonde and silver-haired girl finish their a.n.a.lysis and begin to talk.

The blonde girl says,

“Uncle Vladi, we have finished pinpointing almost all of [UL] the teleport points for the time being.”

The silver-haired girl continues the report,

“We are also able to locate and identify all of our siblings that are sent here to this era at the same time.”

Gasper gives a single nod

“Excellent, Robertina, Helmwige. Ah, Sensei, here are my a.s.sistants who is also Ise-senpai’s children.”

The blonde girl responds to Gasper by raising her skirt a little and gives her greeting

“Good day, Sir First Governor-general. My name is Robertina Hyoudou.”

“Hyoudou? But your aura is that of a Phoenix.”

Yeah, the aura raised from this girl is that the fire of Phoenix… but being Issei’s daughter, her Dragon aura is also inherent.

“That’s correct. I am the daughter of Hyoudou Issei and Ravel Hyoudou. I don’t use the Phoenix surname because mother left the house. Therefore, I use the last name father has been used in the underworld. I’m the same age as Ex-kun, by the way.”

Since she gives herself to marry Ise, Ravel cannot use the Phoenix name. She also cannot use Gremory, so she uses Hyoudou.

That reminds me, one of the [UL] soldiers mentioned the Hyoudou name.

The two hair drills is Ravel’s characteristic, but it’s funny to see that her daughter have four.

“Seems like future Ise has a different name.”

As I say so, Ravel’s daughter Robertina gives a small laugh.

“He has different names when he is outside of the house”

If it is so, then he at least to have two names combined with him.

The silver-haired daughter with Valkyrie armor (which takes form like the Boosted Gear Scale Mail) greets me politely

“I am Helmwige. My father is the Sekiryuutei and my mother is a Valkyrie. I was born at the same year as Zen and s.h.i.+n-kun.”

“Ah, I can tell from a glance that you are Rossweisse’s daughter. You’re just like your mother.”

She’s very much like Rossweisse, except she makes her hair into a single long braid. Most of Ise’s children I’ve met have their mothers’ characteristics.

Rossweisse’s daughter, Helmwige, says

“I have one more brother who is a magic user, but… he is born in the original timeline, so I have to fix the future for him to exist.”

Robertina gives a discontent sigh,

“Rather than choose the Holy King Sword Collbrande, that boy chooses to be a wizard instead. It’s such a waste of his talent!”

You guys have an amazing bloodline, to say the least.
“He is more selfish than Ex-kun. You must not question your father and mother’s reputation and make it your own problem! You’re like that, eh, Ex-kun?”

Robertina folds her arms

“That’s a rude remark.”

Seems like Robertina has a knack for saying rude things and giving nicknames, as Ex can be seen looking at her with disgust as if he is saying “I told you so”. Ravel’s daughter seems to be fond of their parents. Her rude remarks roots from her mother’s ojou personality

Gasper strokes Ex in the head, surprising the boy.

“It’s a good thing as siblings to care for each other. Ex, you need to be a little calm like Robertina said. You are more reckless than your parents do. You need to drop that, you know?:

“…I got it.”

Ex accepts while looking down.

Wow, I can feel that Gasper had grown up and give a mature opinion like that.

I am really interested in this future scene that I am seeing in front of my eyes.

A magic circle suddenly expands at Helmwige’s feet. It seems to appear automatically. The symbols on the circle moves in a dizzying pace. I become restless.

Helmwige reports to Gasper with grim expression.

“Vladi-san, this is serious. A [UL] battalion has been sighted near Kyoto.

And so, those people’s battle continues….

DxD

Part 2[edit]
Ex, Gasper, Helmwige, Robertina, and I arrives by the teleportation circle. We are at the mountain trail between Kyoto and s.h.i.+ga Prefecture. We jumped directly to the location where the [UL] were reported.

Ise’s other children who are not with us must be quelling the rampaging [UL] somewhere.

While walking on the lush mountain trees, Ex whispers,

“They’re aiming for the Kyoto Youkais.”

I follows his words,

“There must be a clan which has different abilities in this era. Geez, it doesn’t make sense. Is there any representatives of the Five Great Houses or strong Youkais in your ranks?”

Gasper speaks,

“Yes, we have… The enemy wanted to terminate them along with one of the Sekiryuutei’s relative who lives here before it’s too late.”

I wonder if that is certainly the case. We are heading toward one of the gates leading to the place… where Kyoto Youkais reside.
Sure enough, I can see the old-fas.h.i.+oned Torii shows up on the back of the mountain. It is one of Kyoto’s rear gate. The atmosphere oozes a very strong eerie feeling around the area. It is a group of [UL] soldiers with silver bodies. A large shadow gives an imposing aura on the center… it is the machine dragon Galvaldan!

Several days ago, its left arm was blowing out steam because Zen cut that off. When we meet it again, it is clear that it had it replaced with a very thick drill-shaped limb. I can feel something very brutal about that evil drill sword. It also has a new weapon, installed in its back like a rucksack. It is a good thing we pa.s.s through this gate. If these ferocious things begin to rampage in Kyoto without anyone knowing, I won’t know how much destruction and damage they can cause. Gasper shrouds himself in extraordinary aura and charge valiantly to the [UL]. Judging from the abysmal amount of energy, his growth potential is far beyond me, and it is clear that he is the most powerful of us.

After seeing Gasper’s appearance, all of the [UL] turn their gaze at once to him. As soon as the enemy commander, Galvaldan, sees Gasper, he puts up s.h.i.+ning eyes. “Don’t think you’ll come here too, Gasper Balor.”

Gasper sets his arms in a stance, staring at Galvaldan while emitting intimidating aura. I don’t see any signs of his present day’s cowardly boy persona. He becomes very strong. I am very impressed.

Gasper asks Galvaldan,

“Galvaldan, one of the Four Generals of Invade Fanatics. What brings you to this place? Is it to bring crisis and chaos to those who live in Kyoto?”

“Well, that. However the real purpose is that I want to grab this d.a.m.n thing.”

As it says that, Galvaldan shoves its left drill arm.

The drill rotates at high speed as it buzzes and generates a dangerous vibe.

“Of all the Four Generals out there, I was the one sent here and was given this drill weapon as a replacement for my missing original arm given by Addoza. Even though I sent that b.a.s.t.a.r.d my original arm as a model for making the replacement… This thing is good.”

“However, because there is a powerful barrier erected in this time axis, it was a struggle just to transport this d.a.m.n thing… Well, yeah, your interference will be a nuisance. Thanks to the misaligned transfer point, I have come right next to ya.”

That same drill was transported from the future as a reinforcement part meant to be used by Lord Renzo, but now it’s being held by one of the Four Generals. And by the successful efforts of the future warriors, all the last of Four Generals can do is to transport weapons and their support. From the talk of this proceeding trip to Kyoto, it seems that the transport point of the drill weapon was s.h.i.+fted out of the designated coordinates, and incidentally sent to this era’s Kyoto. In a split second, Galvaldan ignites its rocket engines, making a blaze! It jumps directly, but I immediately create a barrier around the area for cover. I need to minimize the damage as much as possible.

“Oh, well! Not so bad. Let’s put this thing on trial! It’s time to pay back the condition that you guys gave last time now that I am in perfect condition! Drill baby driiiiiilllll!”

The new drill arm is so intense, its impact to the ground creates a shockwave after a missed attack to Ex! He flows backwards due to the sheer shockwave!

Robertina flows sidewards, the [UL] soldiers begin shooting bottomless bullets at once towards her, but she just sweeps the attacks with the skillful use of her Phoenix fire and the bullets just disappear as if nothing happened.

“It’s useless. I am invulnerable, that’s why.”

As she says that, Robertina sprouts huge, feathered fiery wings on her back, and sweeps over a group of the enemy soldiers, burning them all on the spot!

“You paid for using those small fries to be my opponent.”

At the same time, Helmwige deploys numerous magic circle at her front, and shoots countless number of spears. Each spear is tied with a magic scroll and hit another group of enemy soldiers. I can hear explosions when it pierces, and others are visible in a frozen state after hitting. Both girls are strong!

I also shoot several spears of light, and hit several [UL] without any difficulties. The problem is there, and I lay my eyes at Galvaldan.

The hit is not fatal, but Ex did not receive severe injuries acc.u.mulated in his body.

Once it gets some distance, Galvaldan slouches his stance. It unpacks the weapon on its back. It mounts countless missiles! The numbers are terrible! It can level the whole mountain!

“FIRE IN THE HOOOLEEEEE!”

Galvaldan fires the missiles, and he aims towards us.

Suddenly, it becomes quiet. There is no noises of fighting, and the sounds of flying missiles disappear, as if the time has been stopped.

All of the missiles has been stopped in mid-air. Galvaldan and his [UL] army are also stopped. I know this phenomenon!

Gasper’s red eyes glow and he takes one step forward.

“Azazel-sensei, I will stop the time surrounding Ex and company.”

The time running around us is stopped, but Gasper says we can move. All the [UL] and the trees of the mountain are also stopped. Not only stopping the time in a dimension, but he can also move in that time-stopped dimension.

“If there is someone who can move in this time-frozen world of mine, it would be only those who have my permission, G.o.ds and transcendental beings (Super Devils), the new generation Satans, and those who are equal to the Two Heavenly Dragons.”

Gasper says that.

If he can do this, would this mean that he becomes one of the strongest being in the future?

Robertina suddenly speaks

“[The Champion of Time and s.p.a.ce] Aeon Tyc.o.o.n, now you can see why Uncle Vladi is called [a transcendental person (Super Devil].”

“A transcendental person (super devil)? Gasper?”

I ask Robertina,

“After thirty years, there are six people who become transcendental beings (Super Devils) in the Underworld. Among them are Uncle Milicas, Lord Ajuka Beelzebub, and Uncle Vladi.”

If you can completely control time, it’s not strange to be one yourself.

“At that level? How about Ex’s?”

As I ask, Gasper expands the shadow under his feet. Darkness wraps the missiles fired and stops them in mid-air before vanis.h.i.+ng in thin air.

Gasper says to Ex,

“Ex, we need to pa.s.s through this battlefield, can you charge and dispose this good-for-nothing boogeyman?"

Gasper points his finger to the frozen Galvaldan.

“Good, Ex. When the time starts tickling again, you can finish Galvaldan off. I know you’re still thinking about your father, but you cannot solve anything if you put yourself in the dark and let it cloud your judgment. ”

Probably because someone mentioned his father right at the front of him, Ex speaks intensely,

“I know… I know! But sir Vladi! No, Uncle Gasper! Even Mother Asia fell to Loki’s Curse, and he couldn’t even show up to prevent that!? He is an important man, yet he cannot visit and see us face-to-face!”

“So, you cannot forgive him?”

“…”

Ex remains silent, he cannot answer Gasper’s question.

At first, I want to ask Ex about his father, but from what I see now…Seems like he is weighing Ise’s values using me as a comparison.

I think that he is having serious teenager “daddy issues” since he seems cannot decide whether he likes or hates Ise.

However, Gasper shows his sincere smile to Ex, and says exactly what I am feeling right now,

“You should know, Ex. That man loves you as much as the whole family. There are many reasons he cannot stay over, let alone gives a chat and plays with all of you like fathers commonly do.”

“But still!”

“You will find the answer naturally on your own. For now, change that feeling into your power and stop this guy. I will loop back the time flow… Unleash the power of the Two Heavenly Dragons inside you and win this battle.”

“tch!”

As Gasper points his finger, I can feel a power surge on Ex.

Then, after Gasper snaps his finger, the world starts moving again.

“This is…”

Galvaldan was surprised to see his missiles have vanished in an instant, and set his sight and think that it’s all Gasper’s work.
Gasper says toward Ex,

“Since you cannot just rely on your strength alone, I want to ask: what is your resolve that makes you through all the events in your life?”

Galvaldan looks with bright, dangerous eyes.

“This is tickling my skin, if you ask me. I’m different from that Super devil man said, you know?”

Ex is affected very much by Gasper’s words and starts to charge his gauntlet.

“Hah!”

Ex lets out his Kiai and raises his crimson aura in an instant. He holds his crimson sword.

“Alright. I, who have inherited the blood, body and power, and taught how to use them. I am the inheritor of the [Crimson], Ex Gremory!”

Red aura continues spread and wraps Ex,

“Balance Adjust!”

“[Scarlet Dragon Counter Balance!!!]”

There are small debris flung to the gate!

Red dragon arms and legs appear, and finally Ex are wearing the crimson-colored Scale Mail.

I think the Heavenly Dragons and Airi’s golden plate armors that they wear are light, therefore allowing more nimble movements. Ex sprouts four scarlet dragon wings from his back, and the Scarlet Blade Galatine changes form. He seems to have a different type than his father and elder sister.

He charges the Power of Destruction to his sword, and flies with maximum dragon power.

“Boosted Gear Diabolos Counter-Balance: [Crimson Dragon Sword of Extinction] “The Existence Cutter” Scarlet Blade! With the will and strength of the Heavenly Dragon, I combine it with the power of this cursed holy sword, prepare yourself, Galvaldan!”

[Boost Blade Boost Blade Boost Blade Boost Blade Boost Blade Boost Blade Boost Blade!!]
A powerful voice raises from the gauntlet’s jewel.

At the same time, crimson aura keeps increasing to the sword.

Ex jumps out without giving a sound! The next moment, crimson flash goes through Galvaldan’s chest, where it is slashed off!

“c.r.a.p!”

Galvaldan’s body parts are cut and it becomes clear that he is no match to Ex, and the kid keeps slicing the mechanical dragon in G.o.dspeed! He moves so fast that he cannot be spotted even from my eyes.

Ex adopts his mentors, Vali and Kiba’s combat method, and I wonder if it is the Counter-Balance’s surprise attack. He combines both his parents abnormal powers… Dragon powers and the Power of Destruction to his sword. Galvaldan seems cannot antic.i.p.ate his strikes.

I see, it’s just like what Gasper says, Ex must learn how to be strong, because they are the next generation with great power, but that comes with great responsibility.

That is the symbol of the future people… Ex Gremory!
“DAAAAMMMMNNN IIIIITTTT!!!!”

Galvaldan emits magnanimous amount of laser rays from its body, but it’s not something that Ex cannot deflect with his sword, fused with the artificial Longinus!

“In the name of the house of Duke Gremory, I will absolutely defeat you, Galvaldan!”

Ex lets out a n.o.ble, brave ambience appearance, which makes me remember of a certain person. I cannot catch the lightning fast combat with my eyes… Ex lets out crimson flashes with his sword that I cannot even catch a glimpse in this backwoods.

[Boost Blade Boost Blade Boost Blade Boost Blade Boost Blade Boost Blade Boost Blade!!!]

Finally, Ex cuts its left drill arm, then right arm, and finally its legs! The mechanical dragon only has a head and torso, and its body falls to the ground face first!

Gasper tells the two girls not to miss the chance,

“Now, Robertina, Helmwige, is the chance to send it back to its world! I’ll open the dimensional gate!”

“Yes!”

Gasper, Robertina, and Helmwige create identical magic circles at the same time, which works as a chronoplast portal in the size of Galvaldan’s body. As the circle s.h.i.+nes, it tries to resist the action.

“In this state, I’m done for!!!!”

It tries to escape with its waist rocket.

“That’s not gonna happen.”

I shoot two large spears of light to destroy its rockets. The mechanical life form even rolls to try to escape, but the teleport circle kicks in and wraps it.

“DAAAMMMMNNNNN IIIIITTTT!”

It roars for the last time, and finally disappears in the glow of the circle.




Wearing red aura, Gasper looks at Ex who fought fearlessly and says proudly,

“Ise-senpai and my master Lady Rias once said to me that Ex is very much like Lord Sirzechs.”

So, that’s why. The glimpses I got earlier from Ex is because he has shades of Sirzechs in him.

We confirm the defeat of Galvaldan and his [UL] underlings.

The forest does not suffer too much damage, so I will repair it later.

However, it’s a big achievement that Galvaldan is sent back to the future. With the coming of reinforcements, it will reduce more casualty in the future war in this world. I wonder how much there is the remaining enemies other than Loki and Luma Idra.

But just after catching my breath, another report comes.

“Impossible!”

Robertina is astonished to hear the report from small magic circle on her ear.
