Ddraig gave me praise. And his voice was tearful. “Yeah, thank you. And sorry for being perverted! So, how is my state?”
[You can maintain Balance Breaker for thirty minutes. The results of your training have come out. For the first Balance Breaker state of the weak you, that’s a fairly good time limit.] How many times can I do my max doubling? [I think that each time will be used up within five minutes if you release it at the max. You can do it five times at the most. When you include your other movements, your sixth time will be the same as nothing. It’s the same when you use the transfer ability too.] So if I use this power well, I can fight for fifteen minutes. [You don’t need that long. —Look, stick out your hand, and try firing a magic bullet like usual.] Following Ddraig’s instructions, I stuck out my hand and aimed at Koneko-chan’s onee-san. Doh! It fired in an instant! It passed right by onee-san and went far into the forest. The next moment—. A red flash unfolded. Doddoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooon! The roar of an explosion ran from far away, and the blast even reached all the way here! ……Eh? ……What? I couldn’t react to this sudden event. The poison mist was blown away by the blast from the attack and dispersed. “Hahahaha! It’s been a long time since I’ve seen that red blast! Hyoudou Issei! An entire mountain far away from here completely vanished just now! Also, the barrier covering this area has been blown off as well!”
Tannin-ossan said that from the sky above
A mountain!? An entire mountain vanished!? I didn’t even fire it with particularly doubled power!? [It’s the type of attack that fires the collected power from your whole aura through your hands. Since the amount you can store is still little, you can’t fire it consecutively, though.] “Fuhahahahaha! You attained it at last! I see, I see! It’s a surge of great power! That’s the condition of a good aura!”
Ossan also had a big laugh from above. Thank you, it really is thanks to training with ossan as expected! Rather, so the barrier also disappeared. The others outside should also have learned what’s going on here with my attack just now. “Ahahahaha!”
There was someone else laughing. It was Koneko-chan’s onee-san—Kuroka! “Ha! How interesting! Then, I’ll also show you a mixed shot of youjutsu and senjutsu!”
Kuroka’s hands began to be clad in two different powers each. Dou! Just like that, she started to shoot two different kinds of surges from both her hands! I received it right in the front! Dodon! …I felt the impact of the surge blast, but there was no pain. Smoke rose from armour but—there was no damage. My armour was still solid as usual! “Is that all?”
Kuroka’s expression changed at my lack of damage and she was shocked. “It didn’t work!? No way. I built up a considerable amount of spiritual power!”
Doh! I vigorously leaped forward and closed the distance between me and Kuroka instantly! “Don’t get carried away!”
Kuroka began to shoot countless more of the surges from before, but I either ploughed through them or flicked them away, and approached right in front of her! Buuuuuuuuuuuun! I lunged with my fist, but stopped it right in front of Kuroka’s nose. The surrounding air trembled from the aftershocks of stopping it, and the surrounding plants shook greatly. In front of Kuroka who was frightened by my fist attack, I spoke. “Don’t make my cute kouhai cry.”
“—”
“If you aim at Koneko-chan again, I won’t stop my attack next time. You may be a woman and Koneko-chan’s onee-san, but you’re my enemy!”
When I pulled back my fist, Kuroka immediately sprang back and put some distance between us. “…You damn brat!”
Kuroka cursed me, but I saw the fear in her eyes. Since the armour I wore gave off a pressure that wasn’t normal. At times like this, the impact and intensity of this full body armour was quite effective. Bikou laughed loudly when he saw that. “Hyahahahahahahaha! This is really interesting! Now there are two dragon bosses! It’d be a lie to say I’m not enjoying this!”
Twirling his Nyoi-Bo staff around, Bikou showed his intention to continue fighting. This guy also loves fighting just like Vali! Really, why are my enemies only like this? There are much more enjoyable things than fighting. Like being popular with girls? Because our standards of value are different, I just can’t understand their thinking! No matter how I think about it, rubbing Buchou’s breasts is much more enjoyable than fighting! Well, it’s fine. Beating them here shouldn’t be a problem now. Since the poison mist from before had cleared up, Buchou and Koneko-chan seemed to be slowly recovering too. With four against two, there’s nothing we can’t do! Soon, devils who noticed something strange was going on would come to help! —But, as we prepared ourselves, a tear appeared in the space before us! W-What was that!? Appearing from out of the tear was—a man. A young man wearing a suit. He held in his hand a sword that was releasing a holy aura to the max. W-What’s with that sword…Is it a holy sword? “That’s far enough, Bikou, Kuroka. The devils have noticed.”
Wearing glasses, the man said this to Bikou and Kuroka. A comrade!? Give me a break, another member of the [Khaos Brigade] is joining in on the battle! Shutah. Bikou descended from the sky. “Aren’t you Vali’s attendant?”
The man pushed up his glasses and spoke. “Because Kuroka was being slow, I came to see. And even Bikou is here. Geez, what are you two doing?”
The man sighed. “Everyone, don’t get near that guy! The thing he’s holding in his hand is really troublesome!”
Tannin-ossan shouted that to us. “The holy king sword Collbrande. Also known as Caliburn. For Collbrande, called the beyond strongest holy sword, to be with the Hakuryuukou is…”
Tannin-ossan gave a bitter laugh. The beyond strongest holy sword!? So that means he’s stronger than either Kiba or Xenovia…? “But, two swords? The one that’s in a sheath is also a holy sword, isn’t it?”
The man pointed at the sheathed sword on his back at ossan’s questions. “This is the final Excalibur that was recently found, the strongest of the seven Excaliburs. [Excalibur Ruler].”
—! Excalibur!? The sword that was broken in ancient times and became seven pieces!? Certainly, I had heard that there was one missing, but…Is that really it? “To be talking like that, you’re pretty calm, aren’t you?”
The man nodded at Kuroka’s question. “Yes, the truth is that I also have a lot of interest in the comrades of these guys. Sekiryuutei-dono, could you please give my greetings to the holy demonic sword user and the holy sword Durandal user? I’d like to face them sometime as fellow swordsmen—you know?”
—. What an audacious attitude. I wonder what Kiba and Xenovia will think when they hear of this. “Now then, let’s retreat.”
The man then cut the air with the sword called Collbrande and another spatial tear appeared and spread out, one that several people could pass through.
