Then we should just seal their souls. Since there is a technique among the practical use of senjutsu that seals the opponents life force we had been practising it. But that will be impossible with just me. I then received advice from Nee-sama that it may be possible by the use of the Sekiryuutei’s jewel…… I ended up using it during the actual battle without any practice, but it looks like we managed it somehow.”
And she managed to seal him huh. That’s amazing Koneko-chan! Certainly, if you do something about their soul, then they won’t be able to revive with the use of the Holy Grail. The reason why they are persistent is due to the fact that they can revive even with the fragment of their soul. More importantly, their body turns into dirt when they get their soul extracted huh……
……No, can we really seal them with just this? Koneko-chan gives me, who is feeling uneasy, additional information. “Once we return, let’s hand this to the Heaven or someone and have them put many layers of barriers on it. This time we will have it sealed in a powerful barrier which prevents it from having his instinct leak.”
I see, that way, it will certainly seem like Grendel who is sealed won’t be able to come out. Oh, so this is the countermeasure against the Evil Dragons. This way, we don’t need to worry about the Evil Dragons we defeat to get resurrected by the Holy Grail. Amazing. With Koneko-chan and Kuroka, we don’t need to worry about the aftermath of the Evil Dragons hunt! The sealing of Grendel finishes and Koneko-chan returns to her normal form—but maybe the fatigue got to her, so she falls on the spot. Nimura-san supports her……but we can’t stay here for so long since Saji and the dads are also injured. I go and lift Sairaorg-san who has fallen down. “Sairaorg-san!”
“……I’m okay……”
Even though he can’t move his body properly, Sairaorg-san shows me his smile. ……We defeated Grendel. A complete victory. We finally won against that persistent Evil Dragon! We were able to defeat him without letting him escape thanks to this man’s tenacity. Sairaorg-san smiles with his swollen face. “……The children of the Underworld are the treasure of us Devils. So let’s protect them together.”
“…………Yes!”
Crime Force Dragon, —Grendel. We finally succeeded in defeating him. This will be the first achievement of D×D—. After that, the injured people get healed by Asia and Rossweisse-san who were able to come here. No one had life threatening injuries, but we did consume a lot of our stamina. Apparently the other members that were fighting elsewhere were having a rough battle like here as well. We then receive orders from Sona-kaichou right after this. —She tells all of us to fall back and gather around the school. That’s the proof that the new teleportation magic-circle that is being made by Gondur-san and the Magicians is almost complete. We arrive right in front of the school as we take down the Evil Dragons that come to attack us. I witness my comrades struggling with their fight. “You are late, Ise-kun!”
“You are exactly like a protagonist of a story since you arrive at the climax!”
Kiba and Xenovia are cutting down the Evil Dragons while breathing heavily. Kiba’s face……looks really bad. He must have used Gram. I realised it right away since Shinra-fukukaichou is looking at me with eyes filled with sorrow. The members that start to gather here have their clothes torn and are putting on tired faces probably due to the intense battles they went through. Gasper is the only one who isn’t here. He still must be after Walburga and is flying around the sky of this town. Rias approaches Sairaorg-san who has just has his wounds healed. “Sairaorg-san! You came!”
“Yeah, since we are at advantage up at Agreas.”
I give thumbs up at Rias and my comrades. “……We completely defeated Grendel!”
Everyone jumps in joy hearing that. Koneko-chan shows the jewel to explain the whole thing. This is what Irina says after hearing the story. “I understand. Once we get through this crisis, I will talk to Michael-sama about it.”
After that, we started defending in front of the school. We sealed the school and its region with Sona-kaichou’s water-barrier (which has been enhanced with my power), so it’s strong enough to resist the Evil Dragon’s fireballs if their attacks were to come. We prepared hunting traps in various places nearby, and the traps will activate simply by having them approach it. Obviously we will be fighting the mass-produced Evil Dragons head on. We will be having our comrades who has used up a lot of their stamina and the parents of the children assist us from behind while the ones who still have some stamina left face the Evil Dragons. The swordsman group consisting of Kiba, Xenovia, Irina, the “Knight” Meguri-san and Bennia starts slashing the enemies while supporting each other and the “Rook” group that consists of Rossweisse-san, Rugal-san, and Yura blocks the enemies range attack and counters them so they are displaying good team play. Shinra-fukukaichou’s counter-type Sacred Gear has also evolved to the level where multiple of them appear at the same time and reflect the enemies attack. “……I will have you perish!”
The kasha of Koneko-chan in Shirone-mode is the most effective. The Evil Dragons turn to ashes without being able to do anything. Her purification power is basically a one-hit kill attack. —However, she won’t be able to maintain that form for long since she’s breathing heavily. The “Pawn” Nimura-san supports Koneko-chan. “Hmph!”
“Eat this!”
People like Rias and Sairaorg-san who can easily take on multiple enemies alone are taking down the enemies quickly. Akeno-san uses her defensive magic and thunder+light attack to give strong support to the two of them. “Oryah! The next person I need to transfer my power to is—”
I fight by flying around the battlefield while knocking down the Evil Dragons and boost up my power to transfer it to my comrades. The one who mainly orders me to transfer my power to someone is Sona-kaichou. “Ise-kun! Please transfer your power to one of the swordsman!”
Kaichou gives accurate orders to us while she maintains her water-barrier. The one who protects Kaichou is Saji who has serious damage and the two “Bishops” consisting of Hanakai-san and Kusaka-san. “I must heal……!”
And the one who works hard and the one who supports us a lot is the healer, Asia. Even though the fatigue is showing up in her the most, she still continues to send her healing light to her comrades. While we are having such an intensive battle, a very bright light starts coming from the school. ……That’s the light of the teleportation! The magic-circle gradually starts to expand where it covers the whole school. If we use this, we can send the civilians in this town outside! After that, we need to continue fighting until the barrier around this region disappears! It may become a battle where we will use up a lot of our stamina, but it doesn’t mean this barrier will last forever.
