Because of the G force, I can’t move my body, however it reduces the distance between me and Raiser. Since I’m coming towards the place he ran to in an insane speed, Raiser puts on a shocked face, and he makes a stance while not having any counter measure for it. I will attack here! Well that’s what I like to say, but without doing anything I—. CRAAAAASH! I crashed into the wall. Such a disappointment! That was a chance! When I crashed, I guarded with both my arms so I don’t have any damages. However, there is a huge hole in the wall. Wow amazing! Both my body and the armour aren’t damaged, despite crashing into the wall in that insane speed! With this hard armour, doesn’t it guarantee that my opponent will receive a critical damage if I simply crash into them with an insane speed? [VIII]
8 seconds left! I got up and shook off the fragments of the wall and confronted Raiser again. Raiser becomes more vigilant than before after seeing my attacks. His body starts to get covered in a rainbow colour aura. I can feel his enormous demonic-power with my skin. “Shitty Sekiryuutei brat! Sorry but I won’t hold back! I don’t want to admit it, but right now you are a monster! In front of your master, Rias, peeeeeerish!”
A giant pair of wings of fire appears on Raiser’s back who was howling. There’s a whirlwind of fire surrounding him and the hall is surrounded by an intense fire. It’s so strong that even the Devils who are within this hall starts to create a barrier to protect themselves. It must mean that there won’t be a bone left if you get hit by that. “Fire bird and Fenghuang! The hell fire of our clan that was praised as being that of a Phoenix! Taste it with your own body and turn into ashes!”
Raiser who is covered in flames rushes towards me really fast. There is an insane amount of flames right in front of me. The silhouette resembles a gigantic fire bird. The intense mass of fire that are created from his wings. Will it be bad if I touch it? [The fire of the immortal bird Phoenix can also leave a scratch on the scale of Dragons. It isn’t a good idea to continue being hit by at.] Is that so, Ddraig? But I can’t do that. That person is looking. I will stop that attack while Buchou is looking at me! “There’s no way that I will perish from a crappy fire like yours!”
I run towards him while shouting! The propeller on my back releases fires made up of demonic-power! HIT!! When both of our fists hit each other's face, it shakes the whole hall because of the impact created from our powers clashing. At the centre of the hall, Raiser and I started exchanging punches. Guu! I get struck by a heavy impact every time I get hit by his attack! Then a hot flame attacks me! It’s hot! Shit! It’s so freaking hot! The temperature of the flame I feel from Raiser’s fist. If I didn’t have this armour on, then it may not have left a bone for real. I’m scared! I want to leave here! I don’t want to die! The more fists I exchange with Raiser, the more I realised the difference between our actual powers. When I remove this armour, the power difference between Raiser and I will be that of an ant and an elephant. After all, I’m just a mere Lower-class Devil and he’s a High-class Devil. Maybe he realised I’m feeling scared, so Raiser smirks. “Are you scared!? Are you afraid of me!? Of course! You are merely a trash if you didn’t have a Boosted Gear! If you didn’t have that armour, then you would have perished before my fist reached you! That’s right! If you take that gauntlet off, then you have no value!”
He’s saying whatever he feels like! But he’s right! If you take this gauntlet away from me, then I will be nothing! [VII]
The serious battle between Devils. Fear struck my whole body. I don’t want to experience something scary like this! But! I pull out a certain thing that I was hiding in a section of my gauntlet. BANG!! My fist hit right into Raiser’s face with a cross-counter. Raiser bends back. “That won’t work on—”
Cough! There are a lot of blood coming out from Raiser’s mouth. My hit was critical against Raiser. Of course. After all, I am holding onto this with my hand. I open my hand, and show what I’m holding onto to Raiser! “A cross!? You have a cross! ?”
Raiser is shocked. I can even hear screams from the Devils inside this hall. That’s right, an item that Devils are weak against. The cross. I punched Raiser while holding onto it. It’s the thing I borrowed from Asia. I got it from her on my way here which I hid it away. [VI]
“I punched you while increasing the effect of the cross with my Sacred Gear. A holy attack that has increased drastically can even be used against High-class Devils. Even if you are the immortal bird Phoenix, you won’t be able to heal this attack that easily, right?”
“Absurd! Crosses bring intense suffering to Devils! Even if you wear a Dragon’s armour, touching it is absolutely foolish—.”
That instant, Raiser notices the change on my left arm for the first time. You won’t notice my left arm is only a section of the Dragon’s armour that is covering my whole body, but you will be able notice it if you take a good look at it. The difference between the whole armour that looks like it is made up of inorganic material, and my left arm that is continuously giving out a pulse. “……Did you give your……left arm to the Dragon residing in the gauntlet……? So that’s the reason for your insane powers……!”
“Yeah, that’s right. I gave my left arm in order to use this power for a temporary period. My left arm is the arm of an actual Dragon. That’s why a cross doesn’t work on me.”
Changing my left arm was the sacrifice needed to use Ddraig’s absolute powers. I gave my left arm so I could fight on par with Raiser. The gauntlet became a part of my left arm. “If you do that, then your left arm won’t return to normal! Do you know that! ?”
“What about it?”
[V]
The countdown is decreasing while we are talking about useless things. “Buchou will come back just with one arm of someone like me, you know? It’s a pretty cheap deal, don’t you think?”
Raiser's eyes changes after hearing what I just said. “You are crazy…… So that’s why you can hit punches without any hesitation…… You are scary. I have become scared of you for real, for the first time. And for that!”
Both of Raiser’s wings turns into a bigger flame. “I’m going to beat you with everything I have!”
Fire bird—. He rushes towards me while the surroundings are engulfed by fire. I won’t lose! I will not lose! [IV]
“Uoooooooooooooooo!”
I put all my power to the cross I’m holding on to! One hit! I will put everything I have into this cross! Raiser’s fist! And my fist! They crash against each other! FLASH! The clash between two incredible powers. A flash created from the collision blinds my eyes! I can also feel the sensation of the things I’m wearing disappears. The same feeling you have when you take your rain coat off when you get home on a rainy day. It’s similar to that. At the same time I can feel the heat that is surrounding my body.
