It’s hot like crazy! Until before I didn’t feel anything hot like this! When I got my sight back I realised the change in me. –The armour is gone! The armour of a Red Dragon that was covering my whole body disappeared! Unprotected body. The only thing left is my left arm of a Dragon. My cross that seemed to have been knocked off during the previous attack is lying on the floor a bit away from me. Hey Dragon Emperor! What’s the meaning of this!? It hasn’t been 10 seconds yet! Why has the armour disappeared!? Wait, are you telling me the price I paid only let me use it this much!? [No. The price you paid to attain my power was enough. But your basic stats are too low to control my powers. You lack training.] ……Damn it! I trained that much with everyone and yet I’m lacking it!? [That was nothing compared to the long-life a Devil. A training of Devils means something if you train for dozens of years.] Ah, dammit! I don’t need things like that now!? Give me the armour one more time! What do I have to pay this time!? My eyes!? My legs!? I will give you anything!? [Using the second armour in this short time is impossible for you now.] ……Is that because I am weak……? Shit, why do I look so uncool at crucial times……? That was the only thing someone useless like me could do! [The moment the power of the armour disappeared, I transferred a bit of the power to the jewel. You can overwhelm Raiser Phoenix for a short time, but that’s it. To beat those from Phoenix clan—.] I have to beat him down hundreds of times or eliminate him with absolute power. [Yeah. Sadly, you won’t be able to beat him many times with the current power of the gauntlet. Even the multiplied power is far from close to the “absolute power”. You don’t have either of the two.] GRIP! I was grabbed strongly by my collar. –It’s Raiser. I got lifted up from the ground while having my neck choked. Raiser chokes me strongly while smirking. It’s painful……
“I praise you for doing this well for a [Pawn]. You really did well. To be honest, I didn’t expect you to do this well. The power of the Dragon user, I was able to taste that with my own body. If you had a year, no six months for you to get used to your Dragon's power I would have lost.”
……He doesn’t seem to be joking. He has a serious face. If it’s only six months……then wait for the marriage for another six months! That’s what I want to say. Raiser’s clothes and body are worn. Like I thought, even for Raiser who had a very high regeneration ability, the rate to heal the damage from holy attacks is taking long. His wings of fire are smaller than before. So he received quite a lot of damage from me……
“There’s nothing you should feel ashamed about. I will train you after I become Rias’ groom. You will become a strong Devil.”
Shut up! That’s none of your business! “Now, it’s about time I put you to sleep. You will lose consciousness for a short while. By the time you wake up, the ceremony would have finished safely. You don’t want to suffer any more than this, right? I’m not a sadist, so I will end this right away.”
Raiser puts on a face that he has confirmed his victory. I’m going to lose? No, that will be unforgivable. — Please definitely come back with Buchou-san. Yeah I know Asia. —First of all, aim to become the strongest [Pawn]. Yes, I know Buchou! Let’s go home together. Akeno-san, Kiba, Koneko-chan, Asia, and I are all waiting for your return! That’s why—. I take out a small object from my pocket. “To extinguish fire you need water, right! ?”
The thing I’m holding on to is a small bottle that contains holy water. This was the other thing I prepared before I came here. An item that doesn’t have that much effect against High-class Devils. If the Devils here in the hall sees this, then they will have just laughed with their nose. However, Raiser’s face turns pale. That’s right. What do I possess in my left arm? What ability does my left arm have? Answer me, Raiser Phoenix! “Damn it!”
Raiser’s hand that is choking me becomes even stronger. Ku, my throat is about to get crushed……but before that! I open the lid and sprinkled the holy water on Raiser. I then multiplied the effect of the holy water! To the level that the High-class Devils can’t ignore! “Boosted Gear Gift!”
[Transfer!!] The multiplied power flows from my gauntlet to the holy water on Raiser’s body. “Cra—.”
It was too late by the time Raiser realised my attack. The transferred power multiplied the effects of the holy water on Raiser’s body. BOIL! The sound of the water vaporising from fire echoes throughout the whole hall. Raiser’s wings of fire starts to look weird because he can’t maintain its form. The holy water burns Raiser’s body insanely. There is smoke coming out of his whole body. I got out from his grip and take my distance while holding onto my throat. Man, he choked me really hard! “Ugaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!”
Raiser starts to writhe with the effect of the holy water. “……Is he going to die?”
[No, even if the effect of the holy water has increased, it won’t be simple to kill someone from the Phoenix clan.] Is that right, Ddraig? [However, the effect of the holy water extinguishes a lot of their stamina and their force of will. Even if it’s a Phoenix who can come back to life from ashes, losing a great amount of stamina and force of will is— He won’t be able to recover his emotional strength right away.] SMOKE……
The smoke that is coming out from Raiser’s body weakens. What’s left is Raiser who has a worn out body and clothes. I pick up the cross from the ground with my Dragon arm. I hold it tight and put my power in it. I also sprinkled the second holy water I was hiding on my hand. “Asia told me this. That Devils are weak against the cross and the holy water. So increasing the ability of both of them at the same time would give enormous damage to Devils, right?”
“Ku……”
Raiser who is suffering from the effect of the holy water makes a scared face after seeing my next move. I look around Raiser and his surroundings. There is nothing except Raiser. Yeah, there’s no problem. “Kiba told me this. To widen my line of sight and look towards the enemy and its surroundings.”
I gather all of the demonic-power in my body at one point. I then changed it to a Dragon's power, and transfer it to the holy water and cross. [Transfer!!] With this, the holy attack gained incredible powers. “Akeno-san told me this. To gather the demonic-power that flows throughout your whole body. To concentrate and feel the wave of the demonic-power. Yeah, even an idiot like me can feel it, Akeno-san.”
I then changed my stance so I can hit my opponent. “Koneko-chan told me this. When you hit someone, aim at the middle of the body and nail it deep into their body accurately!”
They were all the things I learned from the training. Yeah everyone. I remembered them all. They all became useful. I’m going to take back Buchou with the power of everyone! When I aimed my fist at Raiser, he starts to panic. “H-Hold on!
