Chapter 299: Slapping the villain boss
Chapter 299: Slapping the villain boss
The battlefield that originally consisted of yellow sand and trees in the distance turned white.
So did the attacking Satyr members—they were all frozen—into ice sculptures.
A fierce snowstorm swept across the battlefield in a radius of tens to hundreds of kilometers.
From an observer\'s perspective, at the scene, the Old Hell itself seemed to have turned into a world of ice.
Numerous giant sharp ice pillars sprouted from the ground, all of which surrounded the environment, fencing off the area around the Satyr headquarters that was now also frozen.
The pyramid that was originally yellow in color was colored with sparkling ice.
"This... Is this Longinus\' power?" Haqua who had recently become the holder of the Incinerate Anthem asked doubtfully. After all if it was her and her sacred gear, she wouldn\'t be able to burn the entire Old Hell with purple flames. Or rather she couldn\'t imagine it and still underestimated the potential of the Incinerate Anthem which made the thing slightly offended.
(Not everyone can use my full power, even all my previous hosts were unable to do so because they were limited by their talents.)
\'Eh... So you can do something similar with your fire?\'
(You still need to practice more. Having me doesn\'t mean you can use my holy fire as much as you want....)
This was not the first time Haqua heard her sacred gear talking to itself mentally. That\'s right, what had just spoken to her was the Incinerate Anthem\'s consciousness! Just like Walburga, she could also talk to that thing and their relationship was quite good.
But put that aside.
Women like Chisato and Sheila who were from other franchises were also curious. Especially Yuri, she gulped and stared at the blonde woman who created the scene in horror.
Such power was clearly many times stronger than her. As a devil, if not using her scythe and hagoromo, she could also use magic; but she would not be able to create an effect of this magnitude.
And unlike the others, Yuri realized their group was fine and not frozen like the others which meant Lavinia could even distinguish friends and allies, and only target enemies.
Control like that... That\'s very convenient.
[Worthy of being the number one genius witch in Grauzauberer — I believe in Highschool DxD, there are no human witches stronger than Lavinia. Even if there are, their potential is still inferior to Lavinia\'s and it\'s only a matter of time before that woman becomes stronger.]
[Her Balance Breaker, Assoluto Argento Mondo that she is now showing has also become stronger since the last time I saw her where she froze everyone in the old Devil Faction and did a combo with Asia.]
[Her reach has become stronger and colder, but to slaughter these people... Is it necessary to freeze the entire Old Hell?]
While the heroines heard this, many of them admired Lavinia which made the blonde woman a little embarrassed because right now, they were all looking at her with that kind of gaze.
Even Chisato, the woman who annoyed her by putting her aside last night, her gaze made her very satisfied.
Of course, Lavinia was also happy that Eiji was praising her so much in his heart. Her heart felt sweet, and honestly the reason why she had come this far was because she–
[Rias: I knew it, Lavinia is showing off, right?]
[Sona: Rias. Who doesn\'t like showing off anyway? You do it a lot too.]
[Chisato: Ah so Lavinia is showing off. Makes sense... it\'s natural for young people, especially young women to want to show off in front of their boyfriends.]
[Lavinia: Chisato, stop using that tone like you\'re the senior here.]
[Chisato: Fufu. Lavinia, are you still upset about what happened last night? Gosh; obviously I\'ve apologized...]
Lavinia didn\'t answer, but she looked annoyed at Chisato who gave her an amused look.
That woman!
She dared to bewitch a witch like herself with sleep magic and make love to a man who was basically her boyfriend too while she was unconscious—, it would be a lie if she wasn\'t annoyed and envious because judging from the mess at the hotel, what happened last night didn\'t seem that simple.
Chisato and Eiji must have spent a very hot night last night.
Being excluded was a sad thing; there was also the feeling of being a victim of a certain genre that made Lavinia want to freeze Chisato and let the woman watch as she made love to Eiji.
It\'s happening again... Eiji didn\'t know why some of the women around him were suddenly giggling, Lavinia and Chisato were also inexplicably staring at each other with a spark similar to Rias and Sona—there was no mistaking this was the look of cats and dogs fighting with each other.
Seriously. Can these people focus on the plot? They were almost ignoring the villains they were facing!
Eiji coughed to stop all this nonsense. He glanced at the purple-haired girl and explained in a teacher\'s tone. "Haqua, Longinus\' sacred gear is basically god-level weaponry or artifacts made with enough power to kill a god. This also depends on the performance of the host of course."
"Lavinia has fully mastered her Longinus, Absolute Demise. If you do the same with your Incinerate Anthem, you can create no less damage than Lavinia."
"Unlike Absolute Demise, Incinerate Anthem is one of the original thirteen longinus created by the God of the Bible. So you just need to practice more to use it."
In other words, it was more or less the same as Incinerate Anthem said who silently nodded and from within Haqua\'s minscape. The Holy Flame looked at Eiji with fear. After all, it was the man who forced him to become this girl\'s sacred gear. Under normal circumstances, he would look for a suitable or at least decent host for himself.
Haqua wasn\'t bad, and was actually suitable for him. But she wasn\'t human, she was a devil so according to the algorithm created by the God of the Bible — he shouldn\'t possess the girl and should look for someone else. But this man named Eiji Seiya came along and didn\'t play by the rules, he was able to break the things set by the God of the Bible and forcibly put him into the devil\'s body.
Haqua felt enlightened, she was no longer confused and was confident that in the future she might be able to burn the entire world with purple flames.
Sometimes to make people stop doubting themselves, you just need to tell them a certainty or a path that they might reach. That was what Eiji was doing to Haqua.
"Impossible! You\'re only human, why do you have this much power!"
The voice filled with shock, anger, and jealousy was coming from the top of the Pyramid.
Unlike the members of his organization, the red-robed humanoid goat whose body was now enveloped in blue flames that allowed him to survive the frozen world Lavinia had created—, it was Roudret who should be the leader of the Satyr. The blue flames from his body soared into the sky.
Like one of the raging boss scenes in the game, the sky became overcast...
The atmosphere in the neighborhood also became gloomy.
Eiji and the others stared at the goat.
"That guy was able to block Assoluto Argento Mondo? This is quite surprising." Said Lavinia who was also wondering should she attack again? She could do it.
But Yuri interrupted her by saying, "This is just my guess... but Roudret seems to have something called the Flame of Soul in his body."
"Flame of Soul?! He, how can he have it?!"
Haqua overreacted to the thing Yuri mentioned.
What was that? Just like the blue flame that her scythe could usually release, the Scythe of Testament. It was the same but also different because the fire that enveloped Roudret\'s body was much stronger because it was the core of Hellfire.
As a graduate of Far East Devil High School in New Hell, graduating with the best grades among her generation, Haqua had read from a book in her school library that the so-called Flame of Soul was a fire seed that had existed since the creation of Old Hell.
It was said that all the blue flames produced by the Scythe of Testament that was mass-produced in limited quantities in Hell since hundreds of years ago and passed down from generation to generation originally came from the Flame of Soul.
The heat of the blue flames produced by the Scythe of Testament was actually very dangerous to devils, it was capable of burning their souls—however, the flames were completely harmless to humans. But it was a different story with the origin of the fire.
Flame of Soul, just like its name. A flame capable of burning souls, its heat was hundreds of times stronger than ordinary blue flames and did not limit itself to burning any creature other than devils.
It was also said; this flame was created due to the accumulation of countless loose souls held back by the black magic of their ancestors. The fire grew by using souls until now and became a deadly weapon when used by someone.
The whereabouts of that thing was never known, but one of the elders, Roudret actually possessed that thing!
(It was just a flame painted blue. It was not as good as the Holy Fire blessed by the cross of Christ and the holy power of the God of the Bible.)
Incinerate Anthem who knew how surprised her host was by another flame took offense again — he said disdainfully as he compared himself to the cheap flame called Flame of Soul or whatever it was.
Haqua was silent. This flame was more sensitive than she thought.
Unlike the women who were a little curious about the background of the Flame of Soul emitted by the villain boss.
Of course, Eiji didn\'t care. He stood in a very relaxed posture — with his hands in his pants pockets and looked at Roudret indifferently.
"Nothing is impossible in this world... People say otherwise only because their vision is limited—they don\'t know the vastness of the sky and the blue of the ocean—they\'re frogs in a well."
"Roudret, right? Do it quickly. I\'m sure you\'ve made a lot of trouble. Not only did you hunt down the Goddesses and harm innocent people. You were also the mastermind behind the people who hunted Haqua, and Yuri who had to pretend to be a skull for hundreds of years."
"I gave you a chance to change and killed you with my own hands."
Without shouting, his voice rang out clearly on the battlefield and Roudret who was shouting certainly heard it.
The goat\'s body was inexplicably enlarged. Its height which was originally only about 1.9 was now increased to 80 meters.
From their point of view, there was a giant goat wrapped in blue flames that now occupied the Pyramid.
As Eiji had expected, the villain boss had apparently made a clichéd transformation.
"Hahaha! I understand, Eiji Seiya, I understand... you\'re that kind of person. Besides you, the power of you and those women is also abnormal! But as Dokuro said, I have this fire!"
"Don\'t underestimate me! With the Flame of Soul which is actually the card I kept to fight and control the goddesses, even though that human witch has frozen everyone in my organization, I can burn you all!"
"I will burn the souls and bodies of all of you without leaving anything behind!"
Haqua who had been comforted by Eiji and felt warmed by the man\'s concern for her was a little better off. Just like the other women in the group, this was also not the first time she had seen such a tall giant, especially in the battle with Walburga that she had witnessed a few days ago.
But Yuri was different, she was a little nervous after seeing Roudret\'s transformation. Moreover, she knew how terrifying the power of the Flame of Soul was. If they were even slightly touched by that flame, at least she and devils like Haqua would instantly die!
Therefore she looked at Eiji and wondered what he would do. Chisato, Lavinia, Haqua and Sheila who had come here were also looking at the man curiously.
But they saw Eiji smiling.
That smile was unusual, only people like Chisato and Sheila who were one of them and had fought against gods knew.
It was the smile of a ruler.
The transcendent smile of someone who eliminated ethics and emotions.
So at this moment, the women standing beside Eiji shuddered. They naturally looked back only to see many golden ripples suddenly appearing in the air.
As Roudret jumped from the top of the pyramid and stepped on many of his own subordinates who turned into ice sculptures—he ran towards Eiji\'s group with his four legs that made the ground tremble with each step, he only needed to touch those people, and just like the subordinates he stepped on—they would all die.
Roudret was so confident, after this he was even thinking of telling Rizevim that he had killed Eiji. The person who had always thwarted their plans in the end was nothing more than that in front of him.
He wanted to show off to that bastard.
He certainly saw a lot of golden ripples appearing behind Eiji. But so what? It was just—
"As expected of villains, the villain boss is also no exception... You\'re so full of yourself. I took the time to talk a few words with you, not that I take you seriously, okay?"
"You think you can kill me and touch my women? Know your place, mammal."
Instantly, after those insulting words came out of Eiji\'s mouth. Various sharp weapons and types of swords and spears that numbered in the hundreds... thousands... millions or even more that were enveloped in a golden aura flew.
It came out from the vast golden ripples behind Eiji and flew like bullets raining down on Roudret.
*Boom!* *Boom!* *Boom!* *Boom!* *Boom!* *Boom!* *Boom!*...
"Aghhhhh–!"
While the women covered their mouths at the sight of the brutal scene; where in front of them was a giant goat with a pirmida on its back that was pierced by many weapons that each created a powerful explosion.
The Roudret in question let out a painful cry. He\'s screwed! He was going to die! He was originally confident in his body that was already fused with the Flame of Soul, in this form, his body could practically become fire.
So he should have a high immunity to physical and projectile attacks. But damn it, what happened? The weapons that came out of the golden ripples were definitely not ordinary weapons, they all contained magical power and of course he was injured by them.
Roudret couldn\'t even continue shouting because his body was hollowed out mercilessly and blown up without leaving anything behind.
In the end, he devil who had long lived, and had long planned world domination died.
He died in Eiji Seiya\'s hands.
