Even I don’t plan on bullying low class devils. Since I was taking a stroll, I came to visit the devils place. Is the holy demonic sword wielder present? I came to see him.”
Even though this is what he says, nobody thawed their posture. Like we’ll believe something a fallen angel says! More like, your aim is Kiba, huh! “If it’s Kiba, then he isn’t here! If you’re aiming for Kiba, then I won’t let you do it!”
Since Kiba became a rare balance breaker, does he plan on making him an offer? “…….Seriously. Even though you weren’t able to win against Kokabiel, there’s no way you can win against me. ----I see, the holy demonic sword user isn’t present. This is boring.”
While scratching his head, Azazel approaches. There’s no hostility at all. Because of that, it’s scary. Because of the fear my hands are trembling. Against one of the leaders, Kokabiel, we couldn’t do anything. If more than that, a top level opponent comes….even instant annihilation is possible. I don’t want to go on to the next world as soon those black wings unfurl…..If I have to die, then at least let me die after doing ecchi things with Buchou! Azazel points to a certain tree. “The vampire hiding over there.”
Gasper hiding in the tree shade panicked. While approaching Gasper, the fallen angel Governor says. “You’re the possessor of the Forbidden Balor View, right? If you can’t use it properly, then it will become a thing that causes harm to others. As a support type Sacred Gear, if you can supplement the deficient aspects, it should be fine but….. Now that I mention it, the research of sacred gears by devils didn’t progress much. If you invoke it via the 5 senses, if the sacred gear’s owner’s capacity is insufficient then, it will move naturally, and it will be extremely dangerous.”
As if peering into Gasper’s face-----, more like Azazel is peering into both his eyes. Gasper himself was trembling as the top head of the fallen angels approached him. I think it’s an obvious reaction. However, I don’t feel anything strange or an evil malice from Azazel. His expression looks like he’s full of interest. Maybe because the others also sensed it, they didn’t know how to respond. Looking at him, Gasper is looking like he’s being attacked by the fallen angel but…. Azazel turns around towards us, and points to Saji. While scared, Saji makes a posture as well. However-----
“Is that Absorption Line? If you’re practising, try using it. Connect it to this vampire, if he invokes it while you’re absorbing the sacred gear’s excess, it would probably run less wildly.”
On Azazel’s explanation, Saji shows a complex expression as well. “……..M-My Sacred Gear, it can suck the power of the opponents Sacred Gear as well? I thought it simply absorbs the opponents power and weakens them…..”
Hearing that, Azazel had an amazed expression. “Seriously, it’s because of this, that recently the sacred gear owners don’t try to know the power of their sacred gears well enough. The Absorption Line holds the power of one of the legendary five dragon kings, the Prison dragon, Vritra. Well, this was found out thanks to recent research. That thing can connect to any object, and can scatter that power. If it’s a short time, it’s possible to separate the line from the owner’s side, and connect it to some other person or object.”
“The-, then, the line on my side….for example I can connect it to Hyoudou or some other person? And then the power will flow into Hyoudou?”
“Yeah, if you grow, the number of the lines will also increase. If you do that the output of absorption will increase many times as well.”
“………..”
Saji became quiet. More like, about Saji’s Sacred Gear, if Azazel’s explanation is true then isn’t it quite an amazing thing? No no, this guy is the Governor of the fallen angels, you know? The boss of the old enemy of the devils! It’s obvious that he’s a bad guy! ……..I think that but, I don’t feel any hostility after all. I worry about what Kokabiel said. “His sacred gear collection hobby is abnormal.” ---is what he said. Is this related to that? “In improving the sacred gear, the fastest way would be to drink the blood of the host of the Sekiryuutei. If you let a vampire drink blood, then they’ll gain power. Well, do the rest yourselves.”
The fallen angel’s Governor-san says just that much, and with a single look turns to leave the place. However, only once he stopped, and turned his face towards me. “Sorry for Vali-----Our Hakuryuukou for coming into contact with you on his own accord. I am sure you would have been surprised, right? Wh—at, he’s an unusual guy but he doesn’t think of settling the rivalry between red and white immediately.”
Is what Azazel says but…. “What about you, won’t you apologise for coming in contact with me repeatedly without informing me about your identity?”
I unconsciously complained as well. However, I was seriously surprised. For the client to be the Governor of the fallen angels, there are limits to even bad jokes. But, Azazel shows a mischievous smile and says a few words. “Well, that’s my hobby. I won’t apologise.”
Saying that, he left the place. ……
We were left behind. We exchanged glances and were troubled on how to react but Saji after sighing moved. “……For the time being, shall I use my sacred gear on the new face-kun over there. In that state, let’s try using his sacred gear and practice. In exchange for that, next time, I will have you help me out with the flower bed.”
On Saji’s suggestion, everyone nodded, and Gasper’s sacred gear training got started. Saji connected the tongue of the Absorption Line on Gasper, and sucks the excess power. As Azazel said, absorption was possible. ….Seriously, he’s well informed about the sacred gears, that Governor-san. After that, the volleyball that we threw, the moment it came into Gasper’s field of vision, it got stopped. The objects can be only stopped completely for a few minutes interval. If it was a ball, it was stopped in mid air and stayed like that. If it’s a living thing, it’s movements were stopped and remained in the same posture. The people that got stopped, in that interval, they were completely stopped, to the point of consciousness, they don’t have any memory of the interval when they were stopped. I experienced it as well so I know. I can feel some malice but not to the point of knowing what happened. There’s no problem with things entering his field of vision but it’s no doubt that it’s a powerful sacred gear. The closer you enter his field of vision, the longer you get stopped, the farther you are the bigger the range of vision but the time of stoppage gets shorter. Because Gasper is unable to effectively use his sacred gear, only certain things within his field of vision can be stopped. I feel like concluding the present situation. Since it’s still impossible for him to invoke it consciously, there were also accidental cases when the moment he glanced towards someone and a part of their body became lightly stopped.
