"So this is my rival! Hahahaha! How embarrassing! Weak! Too weak!"
Vali harshly made fun of me. This bastard has the talent to make people angry.
"Ise!"
Rias, who arrived after rescuing Gasper, seemed worried as she watched me.
[Divide!]
I heard a voice from the Hakuryuukou's gauntlet, and my power instantly vanished. Was it activated from the blow I received to my chest before!?
[Boost!]
However, I also activated my own Sacred Gear, and my power was restored.
[Partner, the power that was halved was restored by my power, but—the [Vanishing Dragon]'s other ability is troublesome.]
I know, Ddraig, I know.
That guy halves his opponent's power and then adds the decreased portion of power to himself. In other words, my power is taken away and turned into his own power. Stamina can't be recovered. It's only power to the end.
So even if I reset from the minus, that guy will become a plus. It seems I need to become my other self to win against him.
[That's right. However, no matter how amazing the host is, he has a limit. Power that goes beyond his capacity is released from the wings of light on his back and he keeps maintaining his power limit without destroying his body.] Ddraig responded to my inner thoughts.
"Come on, come on!"
Seeming to enjoy himself, Vali fired a seemingly endless number of magic bullets. I couldn't run away as I wished either. The round after round of bullets he lightly fired left heavy damage. I could easily imagine that I had become completely covered in bruises.
I'd like to shower him with my own blows somehow. If not, I won't be able to restrain this dark thing that has been born in my heart....
As Vali continued attacking, he resumed his irritating tone.
"Your attacks are also dull. You just plunge in. It's meaningless in that case. What a waste of a treasure. Your use of your power is also unskillful. I wonder how you managed to destroy Kokabiel to that extent, I wonder."
"At this rate the rival showdown between the Hakuryuukou and the Sekiryuutei will be—"
Gooooooooooooooooon!
Before he could finish talking, I made magic power suddenly spout from the jets on my back and plunged into the barrage of bullets. The magic bullets entirely struck various places on my body.
It hurt, but it's manageable. If I didn't give him a serious beating with my own power, I feel like I won't be able to sleep peacefully. It's a pride thing.
I strongly clutched my left hand. Power on just this single point here is enough. Besides, I don't need any power to turn!
I'll also throw away all defenses now!
The magic bullets were shot at my armor, and my armor was destroyed little by little. My face area was also hit, and the mask part was also shattered.
"So you're charging? You really know nothing of combat, to go as far as repeating the same tactic. Something like that—"
"If I knew nothing about combat and was still able to fight with you till now, then I didn't need to say who is lesser among us, did I?" I said with a smile.
Which seemed to piss him off, as Vali deployed what seemed to be a shield of light in front of him and tried to defend, but—.
"Ddraig! Transfer power to the stored Ascalon!"
[Understood!]
[Transfer!!]
A surge of massive power flowed into my left arm. God, I love this sword. It's my holy sword after all.
Gone!
My fist destroyed his shield of light with no trouble, and I made his face eat a sharp blow.
"—????????"
Whether it was because he received an unexpected blow or not, that guy's posture was violently bent.
Idiot...
Cracks spread from the edges of the mask on the Hakuryuukou's helmet, and part of Vali's face peeked through the crumbling portion.
—Like butter.
I grasped my hand around the base of the Hakuryuukou's wings of light that were said to gush out excess power.
"Apparently the effect of your Sacred Gear comes from here. In that case!"
[Transfer!!]
I transferred my power to the Vanishing Dragon Scale Mail before it was in excess. At that instant, I was struck by the feeling that power had suddenly been removed from my body. So it consumed a fair amount of stamina and magic power. But it's fine like this!
"I'll raise the power you absorb and the power you emit all at once! To the extent that you can't deal with it!"
"Kuh!"
All of the Vanishing Dragon Scale Mail's jewels started to nonsensically glow white, red, blue and yellow over and over again. As it did so, the dragon power that I had felt from his body, to the extent of being absurd, vanished.
I had forced him to activate the special ability of his Sacred Gear.
His ability stole the opponent's power and used it as his own fuel. However, since the limit of the power he adds was already decided, it depended on the capacity of the host. Power that goes beyond the limit gushed out from his wings of light and was disposed of.
Then, what would happen if you accelerated his stealing power and gushing-out power at the same time?
He stole so much power that he couldn't process it, and at the same time he spat out power by the time it was excess. As a result, the Vanishing Dragon Scale Mail stopped its functions!
[—! What a thing...! Vali, regain your posture at once!]
Vali reacted to Albion's voice and tried to defend by crossing his arms, but—.
Bagan!
I closed my left fist that was filled with Ascalon's power and easily destroyed Vali's defenses, including the gauntlets of both his arms, and thrust a blow to his abdomen. The white-shining Vanishing Dragon Scale Mail had had enough and shattered.
Goboh...
Fresh blood flew out from Vali's mouth. He stepped back unsteadily while holding his abdomen. As blood poured down from the edge of his mouth, Vali smiled as if in joy.
"...Hahaha, amazing! My Sacred Gear was blown off! So you can do it if you try! Just what I would expect, my rival—"
My merciless fist entered into that guy's face.
"...Seems like a 'newbie' reincarnated devil with 'no' combat knowledge was able to beat the heir of Lucifer's sorry ass. Boy, Talk about a bad day for you."
