Chapter 279: The fight in the park
Chapter 279: The fight in the park
It wasn\'t just them. What Koneko meant about surrounding them was true. Besides those people, there were many 3-meter-tall muscular humanoids whose heads were covered with skull masks. The creatures\' eyes glowed with various colors.
Haqua\'s face looked a little pale at the sight of those people.
"Gira.... You\'re also a member of Vintage? Just like the others. You are also a traitor..."
"Traitor? Haqua, that\'s you. Only you insisted on opposing the Old Hell\'s recovery plan. Also... This is not Vintage–"
The young man named Gira who was also a demon, the Three-Eyed Oni to be precise, pointed at the coiled snake logo on his robe.
Rias\' eyes narrowed at the sight of that emblem. And she was actually a little surprised.
[This plot is developing in a random direction... This world is getting more and more chaotic. I wonder how Rizevim can meet up with a group of villains from other franchises and work together?]
"This is Qillpoth!"
"Qlippoth?" Haqua felt that she had heard the name of this organization. Ah right, this must have something to do with the Rizevim that Eiji mentioned in his heart.
Gira seemed to want to babble more, but Rias who knew these people had something to do with the dangerous organization that a month ago attacked the Alliance using the Evil Dragon troops immediately ordered all her peerage members to attack.
DOM! DOM! DOM!
"You guys.... Attack! Attack them! Target the red-haired girl and the black-haired boy! Prioritize our mission!" Gira was annoyed that Rias and her group didn\'t follow the routine. Weren\'t they curious why he and his group surrounded them? Instead of waiting for him to finish his words, these people dared to attack first!
"Irina, Xenovia. This is your chance to show your training." Eiji said while checking the clock on his cell phone. It was dinner time soon and he didn\'t care about the reason why he and Rias were targeted. After all, wasn\'t it obvious? The other party just considered his group a thorn in their crazy plans.
It was easy to kill these people, but just like Rias who was motionless and watching her peerage attack and Akeno whose power was unquestionable was also just watching — Eiji also wanted Irina and Xenovia to increase their combat experience in this situation. Otherwise, what was he cultivating those girls for.
"Eiji-sama, leave it to us!"
The two girls were excited.
Xenovia immediately disappeared from her position and suddenly appeared in front of the crowd of creatures that were supposed to be Evil Spirits. A distance of 25 meters was covered with just her physical strength in one second. The Durandal in her hand glowed golden and instead of swinging it at the enemy — violently, she thrust her sword into the ground.
"Sixth Form: Holy Rock."
CRACK!
The ground beneath the dozens of Evil Spirits shattered, and numerous pointed rocks shrouded in holy power pierced their bodies. Soon all the Evil Spirits were annihilated and turned into ashes.
Gira looked dumbfounded when he saw this scene, but he was still confident in the number of his troops, he still–
"Eleventh Form: Calm Death, Holy Wave."
The ground around Irina who was surrounded by Evil Spirits turned into calm water. Gently, as the tip of her Excalibur Mimic touched the surface of the water. Like water droplets creating ripples, the surface of the water shone with a faint light before releasing a tidal wave containing holy power.
Although not as strong as Durandal in holy power output — Excalibur Mimic also possessed holy power and just like Xenovia — Irina had also managed to create her own sword technique. Unlike Xenovia who prioritized strength, her control was much better than the blue-haired girl.
Because of that. Irina did not hesitate to expand the water surface to cover half the city park and all those waves of holy water did was tear apart the Evil Spirit and the people in robes. The latter managed to escape.
Even so.
"Koneko, hit those cloaked people! Leave the monsters to Xenovia and Irina."
"Yuuto, Gasper. You guys support Koneko!"
"Yes Buchou!!"
Rias commanded her cute servants. Akeno laughed \'Ara Ara\' and sat on the lap of Eiji who had somehow created a long sofa with his magic to watch the battle.
"..." Eiji hugged the girl\'s plump body.
Lala and Asia sat beside Eiji, they were also enjoying watching.
Haqua did not know what to say. Her worries about Gira and her other former comrades leading such a large Evil Spirit troops seemed unnecessary.
She just stood there and watched Eiji\'s group defeat the enemy with ease.
BANG~!!!
"Gahhh!" Gira vomited blood and guts as a stream of air shot through his back and shattered the trees behind him.
Koneko quickly retracted her fists and jumped back to avoid getting dirty. Currently, she was using her Shirone Mode. So no more loli — now there was only a beautiful woman with a hot figure wrapped in a white kimono.
Gira who was leaning against a broken log looked at the woman who had just punched him in horror. If not for his strong defense as a Three-Eyed Oni. His body would have exploded.
In fact before doing this operation — Rizevim had told her that Eiji\'s group was strong. There was no way they could defeat him with just this troop. Then why are they still doing this? It\'s because....
"You\'re still alive?... I hate bad people who want to hurt the people I care about, especially people who want to hurt Eiji-senpai and Buchou.... You should die like your other friends."
Saying that coldly, Koneko raised one of her hands and a large wheel enveloped in white flames appeared. That was Kasha, one of the special abilities possessed by Nekoshou. The white flames enveloping that thing had a high purification effect — this ability was obviously very effective for killing evil creatures.
SLASH!
On the other hand, Yuuto used his holy demon sword to decapitate several people in robes. Compared to two months ago, his power had also increased greatly.
Gasper too, his Sacred Gear had evolved faster than the original piece. His eyes were reddened and had strange golden patterns. With Aeon Balor — he helped stop the movement of the cloaked people and Evil Spirits that entered his field of view. Everything froze because he stopped time. At that moment, no one would interfere with Koneko to slaughter the enemy leader and Yuuto would kill the rest.
In the eyes of the Vintage members who were now affiliated with Qlippoth. The abilities of these people were too fraudulent!
In front of hundreds of them, these five people were able to slaughter them!
Gira who saw his comrades being slaughtered had an ugly expression, but he grinned at Koneko who was about to throw her Kasha.
"Kill us? You don\'t know.... Do you think we came without knowing your power roughly? This ambush operation was destined to fail from the start, but we still did it. Why?"
"..."
Koneko was stunned for a moment, but she didn\'t care and wanted to immediately kill the three-eyed youth in front of her. The other party loved to ramble so much, she was really a villain who died from talking too much.
However, he pointed towards the evil spirits that had just been slaughtered which made her glance there and she was stunned.
"You see that? Killing you guys was optional from the start. We\'re just here to train the troops." Gira said and at the same time. The previously dead evil spirits slowly came back to life.
The creatures\' bodies burned with green flames before revealing their forms to be slightly different from before. Their height increased slightly and the aura they emitted was stronger than before.
"These creatures can become stronger every time they\'re killed... You guys have a pretty good toy."
"Not only that. I felt three types of energy in their bodies. It\'s similar to loose souls, dragons and strangely enough....heroes."
Eiji\'s words left everyone dumbfounded. It just so happened that some Evil Spirits also started shooting concentrated purple energy from their mouths.
Gasper tried to stop the attack by freezing time. But this time the space around the creatures was distorted which interfered with his time manipulation ability.
"Leave this to me! Space-Space-Kun~!"
Lala got up from the sofa, she spread her arms and instantly many blue balls of light collided with the enemy\'s attack. The ball of light had the power of space, so it devoured attacks that were actually capable of destroying the park.
Rias heaved a sigh of relief and praised the pink-haired girl, "Good job Lala. Otherwise, I\'m afraid my cute servants will get hurt."
"Hehe~ Rias, by the way.... Should I make a Black-Hole-Kun to suck these guys in?"
Lala said something scary. What was the concept of a black hole? Even Rias who was used to seeing various kinds of magic was a little anxious to see that level of science fiction power.
But it was too late, and it seemed she misunderstood. The black hole Lala created wasn\'t that scary, it was just blue portals the size of houses that suddenly appeared and sucked in the monsters.
Still, the attack seemed to be ineffective due to the distorted space around the evil spirits. This was the same as Gasper\'s failed time manipulation!
"Eh~ I didn\'t expect them to be able to block it. I might have to make a real Black-Hole-Kun."
"Lala, there\'s no need." Rias hurriedly stopped the girl, she decided to join the battle.
It wasn\'t that she didn\'t believe in Lala\'s power, she just didn\'t want this girl to make something outrageous like making a black hole as big as a city or planet.
Just imagining it made the crimson girl shudder. She knew she and the others would be fine if that happened, especially with Eiji around. But still, she might be a little phobic of such sights.
Rias now understood why Sona always forbade Lala whenever the girl brought up \'Black-Hole-Kun\'.
"Hahaha! It\'s useless! What Eiji Seiya said is not wrong. These creatures are our leader\'s masterpiece."
"So what if you guys are so strong? You won\'t be able to kill them because-"
Before Gira could finish her sentence, Koneko threw her Kasha at the young man and his body was cut in half. He was also burned by the white flames and didn\'t take long to become dust.
"Put them aside. But you and those cloaked people can still be killed normally."
The white-haired cat lady snorted and threw the other Kasha at the evil spirits. However, after being killed, shortly after, they came back to life which made her frown.
Rias and even Akeno had already fired their PoD and Holy Lightning. More powerful explosions destroyed the garden and its surroundings.
Irina and Xenovia started dancing again with their swords. Both used more sword techniques and unleashed more magic power. Only Yuuto, Gasper and Haqua with her scythe were already overwhelmed as the evil spirits kept rising back from the dead!
"Darling, these creatures..."
Rias looked at her lover and seemed to be complaining. Even the power of destruction was ineffective. Of course she could use a more powerful attack, but that would definitely destroy the city. Was there no other choice?
Eiji stroked his chin, he could use Anos\'s magic and Curse Arts related to souls and this battle would be over then and there. These evil spirits were obviously soul beings that had been enhanced and evolved after dying many times. The purification effect of Koneko\'s white flame alone was not enough to kill them.
[As expected of creatures created from the genes of two protagonists and a loose soul. That space distortion ability has something to do with Rito\'s void dragon power and the green aura that increases physique and defense also has something to do with Basara\'s hero power.]
[Lastly there is the loose soul that somehow allows them to revive. There must be a limit to how far they can revive, but testing what their limit is would take too long....]
What? These creatures turned out to have something to do with Rito and Basara?!
The heroines on the scene didn\'t know how they came into contact with each other. But Eiji knew it must have been during the attack of the evil dragon troops a month ago where Rito and Basara\'s blood was taken by people from the Qlippoth organization. The two boys didn\'t realize it at all.
And created these creatures. Who else is the best scientist on the Rizevim side? That must be Euclid\'s work. The people from the Vintage organization probably helped them collect experimental subjects such as loose souls and humans.
Eiji could also sense that the evil spirits were actually former humans. This group of villains were really doing crazy things.
"Alright. Let me try something." Eiji had just risen from his seat and was ready to test Curse Arts for the first time. But a certain blonde girl pinched his sleeve.
"Asia?" Eiji and Rias said simultaneously.
Asia ignored the crimson-haired girl and looked at Eiji with the familiar staff in her hand. There was a smile on her beautiful face.
"Eiji-san, before you do it. Can I try it first? I might be able to purify the souls of these creatures."
"Why not? Sure, you can try." Eiji remembered that the blonde girl had a god-level artifact in her hands.
Touch of Rekos itself was a creation of the god Rekos, a god who was actually the strongest shaman in her franchise. Her main power was to heal and purify everything.
Experimental evil spirits were of course no exception.
...
Meanwhile.
Rizevim leaned back in the chair with a smile on his face. The old man was obviously in a very good mood.
"Euclid, how\'s it going?"
The silver-haired youth in the butler\'s uniform turned around. Behind him was a large tubular machine covered in iron. Several white humanoids would come out from inside there and line up with the others.
That was the Evil Spirit. There were many of them being mass-produced.
"This is going better than I expected. As long as there are enough loose souls and humans. We can produce as many Evil Spirits as we want."
"That\'s good. Continue and make as many as possible. This is even better than the evil dragon troops!"
Rizevim laughed happily, he took a sip of his wine and glanced at the two black-robed people. One was a short skull and the other was a green-haired girl each holding a scythe. The two people were from an organization called Vinatage who joined Qlippoth about two weeks ago.
From them, the Son of Lucifer learned of the existence of so-called loose soul beings in this world which he was strangely new to. Although he sometimes wondered why he only knew now after living thousands of years, he didn\'t think much of it and thought fate was favoring the villains.
"Dokuro-kun, have your subordinates returned from training our troops?"
"Rizevim, I know you\'re older than me but.... Never mind." Dokuro, the leader of Vintage sighed and somehow he displayed an interface in front of his face.
He could roughly know the situation of all his subordinates from here.
"Just like Lune who just returned. The troops led to attack the Underworld, Heaven, Asgard and several other mythological regions have already returned to the base. Some are on their way back. Those evil spirits have evolved a lot."
"Hohoho~ Those guys will definitely hold their alliance meeting after this." Rizevim said mockingly. Then he remembered something and asked the midget skull again.
"What about the troops led to attack Eiji Seiya and Rias Gremory? I knew there was no way they could defeat that boy and the last one was just to add to the chaos to make Sirzechs angry."
"At least your subordinates managed to bring back our troops, right? Those evil spirits must have evolved a lot."
Rizevim hoped that Eiji, the Gremory heiress and the girls destroyed as many of his toys as possible. After all, every time they died, the evil spirits could come back to life and become stronger.
Imagining his toys coming back already strengthened by his enemies made the Son of Lucifer happy. Compared to the plan of destroying the world using an evil dragon troops and a few legendary evil dragons, these evil spirits were more reliable due to their unlimited potential.
If given time to develop, those creatures might be able to help him kill Great Red and help him invade other worlds.
"That one troop was supposed to be led by Gira, and .... he hasn\'t returned to base yet." Dokuro said hesitantly.
"What?" Rizevim raised his eyebrows. "What about the troops?"
He honestly didn\'t care if Gira or anyone else died. What was more important was the troops!
If Dokuro wasn\'t a skeleton, the expression on his face would have been ugly by now. Why? It was because from his interface, he knew Gira was...
"Gira is dead. Some of the Vintage members who went with him also suffered the same thing. Without them, the troops can\'t return to the base."
Rizevim took a breath, he refrained from shouting that your subordinates were useless. Obviously I told him to retreat immediately if his troops had evolved much.
The three-eyed youth did not listen to his words of wisdom at all.
"Dokuro-sama, let me pick up the troops. Unlike Gira, those creatures cannot die and must be rampaging through the city right now."
Said the green-haired girl with the same hagoromo as Haqua. The death of one of her friends did not even change her expression.
Rizevim liked this young girl. Of all the people who led the troops, she was the one who returned to the headquarters first and gave a satisfactory report.
He nodded at her.
"Lune-kun, do it. Remember, you must not have a direct confrontation with Eiji Seiya. You just need to bring back our troops."
....
Rizevim didn\'t know. He knew Eiji and the girls around him were strong. But he didn\'t think that they could kill his evil spirit troops at all. Even the people of the Alliance were unable to do so.
Haqua who was desperate because these creatures could not be killed almost fainted from exhaustion.
But at this moment.
"This light... I feel that my strength is quickly recovering. My wounds too..."
The purple-haired girl swallowed. The light she was referring to was the light coming from the blonde-haired girl called Asia.
And not just that.
"Soul Purification"
As Asia raised the Touch of Rekos to the sky while saying that. Golden light exploded from her staff. A ball of light flew into the sky. The sky, which was already dark because the sun had set, shone golden.
"!!!!!!"
The evil spirits who were about to shoot out purple beams and attack with their teeth and fangs froze. They roared, the roar seemed to be a scream of pain...
Irina, Xenovia, Koneko, Rias and the others stepped back and watched as the creatures they had previously struggled to kill gently turned into particles of light and disappeared.
The scene actually looked beautiful. But they were surprised when some of the evil spirits turned into humans. Those people collapsed on the ground and one of them was recognized by Lala.
"Mio!"
Eiji\'s lips twitched. Of all the evil spirits, Mio Sawada was coincidentally among the troop that attacked them.
What kind of coincidence...
?{Host, you are the protagonist. Luck and coincidence coexist with you.}
"It makes sense."
No, it definitely doesn\'t make sense. But whatever. Eiji glanced at Haqua who was still stunned and said.
"Haqua, want to come home with us?"
"Eh? That, I....ah!"
Her stomach suddenly rumbled, Haqua blushed.
Eiji patted the girl\'s shoulder. "Of course. You can also come to dinner with us. Besides, you still have to explain where those people came from."
Don\'t you already know? You know the plot anyway...
The girls were already used to Eiji\'s pretense, they didn\'t say anything.
As for Haqua? She didn\'t refuse.
