That’s why—”
Barakiel-san stops saying it there. That’s because he stops his gaze at one of the training rooms. After looking there twice while he was talking, his gaze got glued towards there. I found his actions suspicious, so I also look towards the direction he is looking at, and—. [Ara ara, you sure do need training since you go down simply like this. Ufufu, I will train you even more with this lightning whip!] Someone I know is dressed up as SM Queen and,
[Guha! Ah, Queen! Please train me even mooooore!] —is whipping the Sacred Gear possessor with her lightning and whip! While dropping his jaw wide open, Barakiel-san shouts while having an expression where his eyes are about to pop out. “A-A-Akenoooo! ?”
Yes! That Queen is Akeno-san! She’s swinging the whip while wearing a SM design-like costume, but that’s no doubt Akeno-san! She’s continuing to whip the possessor! Akeno-san who is swinging her whip looks lively like a fish in the water! Her expression is completely that of a super-S, and the one getting whipped also has an expression of that of a super-M! Armaros-san laughs heroically! “That’s our female leader candidate that just joined recently. It seems like Penemue is behind this, but seriously, that’s really a good Queen-like behaviour. I sure am looking forward to her future! Guhahahaha!”
Eeeeeeeeh! This is the invitation that Akeno-san received!? Did her S-side come into play? When she heard the story from Penemue-san, she really seemed interested in it! “M-My daughter is……hmm……”
Ah, Barakiel-san falls on the floor at the shock he received from the change of his daughter! “Guhahahahaha! Alright then! Grab hold of Oppai Dragon!”
[Guu!] The combatants surround me! “Eeeeeeh! ?”
While I’m thinking up of a plan, I got captured and carried away by the combatants! The place I got carried to is a spacious training room. ……What’s in front of me is a crucifixion stand and a crane with a gigantic iron ball. The memory of the man that was being hit with a crane before comes back to my head. It will be painful for even a Devil to be hit by this without any protection! Armaros-san shouts while having the iron ball in front of him. “This is the most efficient thing for the Sacred Gear possessors training! An iron ball! Overcoming this will lead you to awakening your powers! The tokusatsu hero also went through a power-up in the same way! Oppai Dragon, you shall taste this as well!”
“Normal people would die from being hit by an iron ball! And is this what you call training!? And this is how you awaken Sacred Gears!? And what do you mean……that tokusatsu hero did the same! ?”
I’m so shocked that my eyes are about to pop out! How is the iron ball related to the Sacred Gear!? Are you telling me that you can reach Balance Breaker by enduring the iron ball!? “Saji Genshirou of the Vritra also endured this iron ball and also received modification surgery!”
Armaros-san says that plainly! Seriously!? So that guy endured this and received the modification surgery as well!? What kind of surgery did he receive with drills and saws…… Is that the reason why he didn’t want to talk about it because he received such a treatment at their headquarters……? “Take a look. This is the proof.”
Armaros-san takes out a single photo. It seems like it’s a photo of Saji’s back. T-There’s a symbol [G] on his baaaaack! “This is indeed the proof of those who received the modification surgery by us, the Grigori. Saji Genshirou was reborn as a Vritra-kaijin by the technology of Grigori!”
“Vritra-kaijin!? T-Then you are telling me “Vritra Promotion” is a result of this! ?”
“He’s a kaijin that we, the Grigori, are proud of!”
A kaijin, that’s absurd! Seriously! So that guy attained the power of Dragon King by receiving the surgery and mark! And you are saying his real identity is a “Vritra kaijin”!? Does he know that? No, since he never spoke about the mark on his back, it must have turned out that way without him noticing…… That guy became a product of the suspicious makers without him finding out……
See? You get turned into a “kaijin” if you get involved with Sensei! Armaros-san says it while nodding his head. “In order to have Sacred Gear possessors learn how to use their power, we have to use the iron ball first! Or we upgrade them with modification surgery! Or to have them go through a power-up by having them do a lot of training in the mountain with a Dragon! This has been proved scientifically and also theoretically!”
“So you only have those three options!? What’s up with the training options that only has an iron ball, modification surgery, and camping in the mountain with a Dragon! Are we Sacred Gear possessors such simple beings!? More importantly, is that the result of an organisation that has been researching about Sacred Gears!? Rather, aren’t you supposed to specialise in anti-magic! ?”
“You need an overwhelming physical attack to stand against magic! You kill the magicians by punching them! Those guys are weaklings that only rely on magic! Hit them, and hit them again! Guhahaha!”
“Physical attack! Doesn’t hitting and killing have nothing to do with research! ?”
Maybe the reason this person fell from the Heaven is because he is an “idiot”! That’s the only reason I can come up with! “It seems like a modification surgery will be happening right about now in another room. Have a look!”
When Armaros-san says that, the gigantic monitor set inside this room shows the image of another room! What shows up on it is—someone that is tied up to the operating table! And a mysterious group of doctors surrounding the operating table! Wait, isn’t the one who’s tied to the operating table—
[U-Umm……will I really become a powerful Vampire with this? I’m interested in Grigori’s research so I came here today……]
—is Gasper who asks the group of doctors nervously! So that guy was taken to a place like that! The leader with glasses, Sahariel-san, appears in the vision and lifts his glasses. [Of course. If you receive this surgery you will attain absolute power theoretically. —This is what you call a modification surgery! Now, let’s have you reborn!] When Sahariel-san clicks his finger, one of the doctors starts the engine for the chainsaw! Giiiiiin! I can even hear the dangerous sound from the screen. [Hiiiiii! A-Am I really able to become a powerful Vampire with this—]
Zaa-. The moment Gasper tries to say something, the monitor dies out and becomes blurry! ……I-Is that guy really all right……? The monitor then shows a different image. When I look at the screen, there’s Barakiel-san who is crucified and Akeno-san who is dressed up as SM Queen! “Looks like there the new candidate for the leader will perform her purge in this room!”
Armaros-san looks at the screen happily. P-Purge….. What will happen to Barakiel-san……? Akeno-san approaches Barakiel-san while holding the whip. [A-Akeno! Look at how you are dressed! It’s shameless! I can’t face the deceased Shuuri for having you dressed like that!]
