Chapter 91 - After the Necromancer

Third person pov

 

Daniele turned to Griselda as he continued to examine the documents in his hand.

 

The mature woman was looking at him

 

The veil covering her hairhad been removed, allowing her short hair to be seen.

 

"So what is the mission?"

 

While Daniele was looking at the older sister/family figure in front of him, her beauty was directly ignored

 

But when he saw the slight amusement and a touch of pity in her blue eyes, he suddenly felt bad.

 

"Necromancer "

 

"...Please tell me you're joking"

 

"I know you don't like it and I understand but...yes it's true "

 

"Ugh!"

 

Daniele's face wrinkled with disgust and revulsion.

 

It wasn't like he had never encountered a Necromancer before, on the contrary, he had seen one with Dulio a few times.

 

People called Necromancers are essentially magicians who revolve around the dead and corpses aka magic called

 

The type of magic that disrespects the dead and their bodies were often high kill targets in the Church.

 

But they posed another big problem for those who fought them.

 

".....Why does it have to be those stink ones !"

 

....they were terribly smelled

 

Due to the nature of the spells, it included dead corpses, maggots and many other disgusting smells

 

When Daniele went on a mission with Dulio, he was exposed, and even Xenovia didn't get close to him for a week! Regulus even refused to manifest in the Lion Body!!

 

".....do I have to?"

 

Daniele's voice was almost pitiful

 

"Yes"

 

However, Griselda of course hit the nail without mercy

 

Daniele could only sigh

 

-----------------------

 

"So you're going on a mission with the new rookies, Darling?"

 

Irina said as she parried an attack from Xenovia and created Holy Swords that stabbed into her from the ground.

With a growl, Xenovia swung Durandal, shattering them all, and charged at Irina.

 

Suddenly she charged while using

 

"It's not fa---!!!"

 

Even though she blocked it with the Hauteclere in her hand, the chestnut-haired girl flew towards the wall

 

"Then why are you sulking, it must be fun bossing around the rookies "

 

Even when Xenovia told Daniele this, her gaze did not leave Irina's place.

 

The immense Holy Power that was released from the wall through which Irina flew proved Xenovia's suspicions to be true.

 

"*Holy Saints Paladin!!!*"

 

Four Holy Knights were created next to Irina's angry voice

 

When activating Irina's Sub-Species Balance Breaker, each knight had different symbols on their chests.

 

[ Queen of Spade ] , [King of Spade] , [Jack of Spade] , [10 of Spade]

 

The requirements are met with Irina's own card in her soul, [Ace of Spade]

 

"Flush Royal!!"

 

Poker's highest value is given a maximum efficiency power increase with the effect of Brave Saints, while both the winged knights and Irina are covered with white auras and the power increase is increased at the same rate.

 

Xenovia growled when she saw this, while the around her grew stronger, all of them transfer into the Durandal in her hand. 

 

As the two girls were throwing themselves at each other, Daniele's voice was suddenly heard

 

"....I wonder how you would feel if you went hunting the Necromancer."

 

The two girls froze as they were about to collide

 

They gaze shifted to Daniele.

 

Even Irina's knights turned to Daniele as they imitated their master's movements.

 

"Dany...what did you just say?"

 

While Xenovia was asking this, Irina was looking at Daniele in surprise

 

"I. Hunt. Necromancer"

 

The two girls' faces contorted in disgust for a moment, a common expression of both natural disgust for a Necromancer and recalling a particular memory.

 

"Darling.....wash thoroughly after mission"

 

Xenovia nodded sternly.

 

Daniele just rolled his eyes

 

But three people had ignored a very important fact

 

Ewald, who is checking the battle and currently holding the [Excalibur Rapidly], has a vein pulsing on his forehead

 

*Bang!*Bang!*Bang!*

 

Ewald disappeared so quickly that no one could react, and before even realized what had happened, he was hit in their head with the flat side of Excalibur.

 

"It's not like a true Christian to act like this! Train properly!!!"

 

Ewald then multiplied the training several times, which Daniele was also forced to attend

 

........

 

Daniele jumped in with Ascalon in hand

 

Ewald blocked it with Excalibur Destruction, while Xenovia and Irina attacked from the other side, and the Excalibur Mimicry in his left hand changed shape and turned into a long stick, hitting the two girls' wrists.

 

While blocking the movement of the two girls, he channeled the power of Excalibur Blessing, which he held in the same hand, into Destruction in his hand and strengthened the sword.

 

Forced three people to slide backwards 

 

The stick changed shape again and turned into a dagger

 

The dagger flew at full speed towards Daniele as he struck with the flat side of Destruction.

 

While Daniele was blocking with Ascalon, Ewald appeared in front of him, overlapped the two swords and swung Daniele

 

Daniele flew back with the blow

 

Ewald caught the falling Mimicry and the dagger transformed into a mace, hitting Durandal's handle and changing direction.

 

He then blocked Irina's attack and made it go to waste.

 

They continued the attack from three sides as Daniele came back

 

Logically speaking, Ewald's sword was the weaker of the three and had to be broken.

 

But if nothing like this has happened yet, it is because of Ewald Cristaldi's swordsmanship.

 

If Vasco Strada is the only person to have reached the same level as the original user of Durandal, Ewald Cristaldi was among the most skilled users of Excalibur, perhaps the best.

 

Daniele, Irina and Xenovia used this to increase their mastery of their respective Holy Swords.

 

-------------------------

 

"Ugya! Ewald-san is seriously so cruel! Even places I didn't know existed hurt!"

 

Irina was complaining, leaning on Daniele's shoulder, tired and sweaty, with a towel around her neck

 

"Well, I guess it was bad to distract you during training "

 

While Daniele was saying this, Xenovia was lying on his lap and was purring loudly.

 

"Yeah...it's all Dany's fault"

 

Daniele chuckled at his blue-haired fiancé as he caressed her long, beautiful hair

 

[Am I ignoring here???]

 

Regulus' voice came from behind the three of them, who had essentially thrown themselves into the Lion King's soft mane.

 

"Of course not, Regulus~ your mane is amazing as always!"

 

She said as she ran her hand through the soft fur.

 

The giant lion just rolled his golden eyes and smiled as Daniele buried his head a little deeper.

 

".....very nostalgic"

 

Daniele hummed as Irina smiled as she moved her head from his shoulders to his neck and wrapped her arms around him as she rubbed against him.

 

Xenovia also sat up with a small smile and leaned against Daniele's chest.

 

In the past, the trio would always find themselves in Regulus's comfortable and cool mane after training, now that the same scene was repeated, all three of them remembered the past.

 

But the three of them had become much closer than that scene.

 

""I love you Darling / Dany""

 

While the two girls were whispering, Daniele kissed them both on the cheek

 

"I love you girls too"

 

In the churchyard, under the trees, three Angels and a Nemean Lion fell asleep in peaceful silence.

........

 

 

When Daniele slowly opened his eyes, he saw a woman of transcendent beauty with curly golden hair looking at him.

 

"...Gabriel"

 

Gabriel reached out and gently stroked Daniele's head as she stood over the three of them, smiling brightly at him.

 

"Good morning ~~ Did you sleep well my [ Joker]"

 

Daniele's gaze turned left and right at Gabriel's words, and he looked at his two beautiful fiancées hugging him.

 

".....Wonderful"

 

Gabriel smiled as the halo on her head and 12 white feathered wings emerged from her back.

 

"You...what—"

 

"Shhh~~"

 

Gabriel slides her index finger to her lips

 

"Don't wake them up"(Whisper)

 

As Gabriel whispered, her wings suddenly opened and surrounded Xenovia and Irina.

 

She looked at Daniele as she gently lifted the two girls with her wings

 

".....What"

 

When Daniele gave her a surprised look, Gabriel's expression turned playful for some reason.

 

But before Daniele could react, Gabriel's arms, almost invisibly, placed themselves under Daniele's legs and around his back and lifted him up.

 

.....a princess's hug

 

Daniele didn't know why, but he suddenly felt white roses blooming around them, a pink atmosphere covering them

 

'What is this Shoujo Manga atmosphere!?!'

 

Daniele didn't know what to feel right now 

 

First of all, this scene was definitely humiliating as a man, especially when it comes from your first love and probably one of the most beautiful women to ever exist (in Heaven, for sure).

 

But on the other hand, Gabriel's soft massive breasts were touching him, and her soft feminine scent was tickling his nose.

 

'What a dilemma'

 

"Can I take you too, Regulus?"

 

Regulus, who had woken up, gave him a dry look as Gabriel asked him

 

[I like my dignity where it is, thank you]

 

As Regulus disappeared, Daniele felt his soul return

 

"Let's go!"

 

Gabriel said as the angel magic circle opened up beneath them and disappeared.

 

---------------------------

 

Daniele Mansion

 

Daniele reappears in his home while being subjected to the princess hug by Gabriel

 

There was a rather interesting view in the room

 

Daniele pov

 

What am I looking at?

 

"Oh no Ophis-chan, you don't watch this movie"

 

"I want"

 

"But it is not good"

 

Asia was shaking her index finger like a mother who was angry with her child

 

Yes, again. What am I looking at?

 

When Asia noticed our presence, he turned to us

 

Judging by the way Ophis looked at us, she didn't seem surprised at all.

 

The chaos even woke up Irina and Via.

 

"What's going on~"

 

Irina was talking while yawning, while Via was blinking to help her eyes adjust

 

"Dany-san.....why are you being carried by Gabriel-sama?"

 

Asia was looking at us curiously, even Via and Irina were looking at us strangely from where they are

 

"...I have no idea"

 

I honestly don't understand why Gabriel is hugging me like that!

 

Looking at Gabriel's beautiful face for an answer, Seraph's sea blue eyes looked at me then turned to Asia and smiled proudly (Which caused two soft meteorite to press even harder.)

 

"I thought it would be interesting !"

 

Gabriel directly said what made me blink

 

"So.....just because you want to???"

 

Via asked from where she was, with a tired tone in her voice, aka she had completely leaned against the wings...its looks so comfortable

 

"Yes!"

 

Then she bent her head and rubbed her cheeks against mine....stop I'm gonna fall!!!!

 

"After all, she's my Joker!"

 

While Gabriel was pampering me, Holy Power was continuously flowing into my mind, seriously this woman is not fair at all!?

 

I can't help but wonder what my facial expression is like right now because all three of my fiancées are giggling at me

 

"Dany, you're doing something weird face"

 

Ophis said this in a monotone voice

 

Yes, even the Most Powerful Being confirmed it....on second thought, I don't want to know my facial expression right now.

 

When I finally escaped from Gabriel's arms, the Strongest Female Seraph puffed out her cheeks...so cute

 

I turned my head away, unable to look at the devastating scene any longer.

 

It was not something that any man or woman should look at for long.

 

But Gabriel must not have liked my actions because she reached out and pinched my cheek.

 

"You're avoiding your gaze again!"

 

"Twerw iw nowtinw w can wo"(There is nothing I can do)

 

"But why!?"

 

She reached out her other hand and started pinching both of my cheeks.

 

Even though I tried to hold her hand and stop her, the power difference between us was clear.

 

My fiancées...they came without seeing us

 

Traitors!!!!

 

"By the way, what were you and Ophis talking about?"

 

While Via was asking them both, I bowed my head towards them, seriously, why were they doing this?

 

... Of course I got more pouting and pinching from Gabriel.... pain

 

"Oh....right !"

 

Asia quickly turned to the table and looked at Ophis who was holding a film box in her hand.

 

"Ophis-chan! Like I said, it's not age appropriate, this movie is for those over 13!!!"

 

......What the fu---

 

Gabriel left my cheeks while looking at me with curiosity

 

Tsss! It hurts! I gave Gabriel a look of displeasure as I caressed them with my hands.

 

Gabriel also looked away

 

But there are more important things right now

 

"Asia...what do you mean Ophis is not suitable for viewing."

 

Asia looked at me like I said something weird

 

"Dany-san this movie is R-13 age group Ophis-san...not suitable"

 

"She's right, Darling."

 

Irina also nodded in approval to Asia

 

These two...are they kidding?right???

 

When I turned to Via I saw that she was thinking carefully

 

Here is my Via!!! You can spot the problem, come on!! I know you can!!!

 

"Can't she watch something for youngers?"

 

I looked at them in disbelief these three are serious!! These three are really serious!!!!!

 

They treat a being that is old enough to treat my ancestors like a cell, like a child!

 

"....I understand."

 

.....and the other side doesn't even find it strange!!!!!!

 

Ophis nodded and a momentary purple-black light flashed

 

When the name disappeared, Ophis appeared with different clothes and appearance

 

....I agree, she looked pretty and cute at the same time

 

The puffy dress she was wearing had been replaced with something more modern and casual

 

She was wearing black jeans and a few sizes larger loose black crew neck sweater, the only detail of her previous gothic attire being the ornament on her head

 

But while it looked nice on the clothes, it wasn't the most eye-catching element.

 

This was her age

 

Ophis looked around 15~16 years old now while she was around 12 years old before

 

While she had a slim body, her breasts had grown a bigger and fit her body perfectly.

 

"Cute!"

 

Irina was quick to jump on her

 

But Ophis ignored Irina, who hugged her and rubbed her cheek against hers, and focused her attention solely on Asia.

 

"Now. Okay?"

 

Asia clapped her hands with a bright smile as she got over her surprise at Ophis' appearance.

 

"Yes! Now that's ok Ophis-san!"

 

"Then let's wait for the others to arrive first."

 

When I said that, Ophis bowed her head for a moment.

 

"I'll give you sweets until they come "

 

Ophis seemed to accept my words as she suddenly leaned back into the couch .

 

[.....and that's how your father tamed the Dragon God ]

 

 

[Oh, forget about me, I was just practicing reading stories to your future children]

 

My eyebrows twitched as I resisted the urge to roll my eyes at his obvious joke.

 

[Jokes aside, you might want to look to the left]

 

When I turned, Gabriel was embarrassed.

 

She then looked at me with sadness in her eyes as she turned to me nervously.

 

"...does it hurt a lot?"

 

This time her hands gently caressed my cheeks.

 

She was about to cry, please stop, Uriel is going to hunt me down and it hurts my heart

 

",*sigh* no, it was just a momentary pain "

 

"Still, this was Dany's patient too, ignoring me was rude."

 

Even though she had a sad expression, the sullenness in her voice was there..... I guess it's a bit rude to look away every time... but I can't help myself!

 

"So are we even?"

 

When I told she , she jumped on me as her sad expression quickly turned into a bright smile.

 

Suddenly I felt softness on both my cheeks, then she pulled my arms to disappear between two abnormal mountains.

 

"Definitely!"

 

.......

 

"I am here"

 

Rossweisse said as she entered the house

 

""""Welcome Rossweisse/-san/-chan""""

 

She smiled at us as we all greeted her

 

If I remember correctly, she was in the of the Church today.

 

She was still wearing her nun's clothes, indicating that she had come here as soon as she finished her work.

 

The Black and White Nun's clothes were completely stuck to her body

 

On her head was a vein decorated with her usual pink ribbon, while a golden cross hung around her neck.

 

It really suited her

 

It is worth noting that she screamed in surprise when she saw Ophis.

 

....

 

Shigune and Lavinia came together

 

"We're back~"

 

As Lavinia's cheerful voice filled the mansion, she saw the people inside greeting them with various snacks.

 

...at least until he sees Ophis being hugged by Gabriel

 

"Phis?"

 

"Ice Witch."

 

Ophis replied in a monotone to her surprised voice.

 

"Phis!!"

 

Lavinia, of course, didn't hesitate to hug Ophis and put her face on her breast, just like Gabriel.

 

"You were so cute~ but you're so cute like this~"

 

I was really curious when I saw this scene

 

"...I lost my charm"

 

But Shigune, who hugged me with a quick kiss on my lips, claimed otherwise.

 

"Absolutely not, believe me."

 

The other girls (except Gabriel and Ophis) also came up and kissed me.

 

....I still have to do!!!!

 

.......

 

The last member of our household entered calmly

 

Unlike the other two, it gave off a more elegant, refined and mature vibe.

 

"Ophis...are you trying out a new look?"

 

As Akemi asked Ophis, the Dragon God nodded

 

"To Watch a Movie. The Twilight Angel. She forced me."

 

This caused Akemi to look at Asia in surprise.

 

"Seriously?"

 

Asia moved a little and played with her index fingers.

 

"...The movie had an age restriction "

 

Akemi made a weird expression....wait could it be?

 

....Never mind, I won't get my hopes up for nothing---

 

"Hasn't Ophis already been alive for an abnormally long time?"

 

I suddenly disappeared from my place, at full speed

 

I wrapped my arms around her and buried my face in her deep cleavage.

 

"My hero!!!"

 

Even though Akemi is surprised, I feel her gently caressing fingers in my hair.

 

"Fufu~ what a naughty boy"

 

Her voice was dripping with compassion.

 

When I left the comfortable mountains I kissed her on the lips

 

"Welcome, we were waiting for you"

 

Akemi wasted no time in pressing her body against mine.

 

"Why?"

 

"We're having a movie night, Ophis will actually choose but we waited for everyone to come"

 

"Well then, let's go right away."

 

We walked with Akemi holding my arm

 

"We can watch it in the movie room "

 

While recommending Via, we all found ourselves sitting in a movie theater as the world turned upside down

 

Ophis was on my lap, Gabriel was on my right and , while Asia Irina were in the back seats

 

"Okay."

 

I looked at the Dragon God who quickly came to with Ophis' words and sat on my lap in surprise.

 

I quickly came to my senses

 

"Ophis...what was that? "

 

"I teleported us here"

 

Ophis said while making a 'V' sign with her right hand

 

".....Is this what it means to be extremely powerful? "

 

I nodded at Via's whisper behind me.

 

"Okay, but why don't you sit on the chair?"

 

Ophis had grown up now.... how should I say it, it feels like I were doing something wrong, especially since Ophis's attractiveness value is increasing as she grows up.

 

Ophis leaned her head on my chest and shifted a little before answering me.

 

"Dany will be my seat tonight. It's decided. "

 

"When???"

 

"Would you fight Baka-Red?"

 

"...would you like a drink too, ma'am?"

 

Ophis radiated a content aura as she leaned her head back

 

"Shall I turn on the movie?

 

As Asia raised her hand and asked, we nodded our heads as a group.

 

And it began

 

.......

 

The first movie was nice, the second was horror, the third was good for laughs

 

Next....well it was unexpected

 

~Levia Miracle ★ Beam!!~

 

Yes.....Serafall's show

 

Gabriel watched with stars in her eyes

 

"I can't wait for our movie to come out!"

 

I could do little more than show a helpless smile as Gabriel cheerfully called out.... Once Serafall finds out, we can start our own Ragnarok

 

 After hours

 

[Partner, Psst! Partner, wake up!]

 

I slowly opened my eyes with the voice echoing in my mind

 

As my eyes slowly open

 

I saw many sleeping beautiful women around

 

Heaven?

 

[No, this is your Movie Room, you asked me to wake you up at this time ]

 

I reached out and rubbed the bridge of my nose a little

 

I tried to stand up but it turned out to be impossible with the weight I was feeling.

 

As I looked up in surprise, I came face to face with Ophis who was eating popcorn.

 

Right next to us, Gabriel was also looking at me.

 

 

[I understand your doubts but yes, the time is {05.46} ]

 

.....Are they still awake?????

 

When I looked left and right, I saw that the girls were already asleep.

 

Asia and Shigune were leaning on each other, while Via was leaning on my shoulder.

 

Lavinia was leaning on Gabriel's shoulder, while Rossweisse was leaning on Via's shoulder.

 

"Oh, be careful not to make any noise, Dany, they're sleeping!"(Whisper)

 

"So...why are you awake?"(whisper)

 

"Movie. We continued watching"

 

When the answer came from Ophis, Gabriel nodded in support.

 

"I see, so I guess I kept my promise, right?"(Whisper)

 

When I asked Ophis, she nodded.

 

However, she turned back towards the movie and continued to sit on my lap.

 

"Ophis..... can you get up, I have to go to training"(whisper)

 

She looked back at me once more.

 

As she was sitting on my lap, her face was almost in contact with mine.

 

After we both stared at each other for a while, Ophis suddenly shook her head and stood up.

 

I slowly straightened Via's head so as not to wake her up before slowly getting up.

 

When I got up I stretched a little and then turned to the girls

 

How do I get them to bed now?

 

As I scratched my chin, my gaze shifted to Ophis.

 

"Ophis...can you teleport them to bed "

 

"Ok."

 

As soon as she finished her words, the girls suddenly disappeared

 

.....It was really instant, if I blinked I would miss it..... talk about extreme OP

 

"Senjutsu training?"

 

I nodded as Gabriel asked

 

I occasionally train Senjutsu around this time of day... unless I'm doing certain types of 'activities' with the girls.

 

"Is there anything I can help you with?"

 

As I shook my head and rejected Gabriel, the strongest Seraph leaned back while yawning cutely, which caused the two abnormal planets to react.

 

"So...I'm going to sleep with the girls too!"

 

She came to me, hugged me, kissed my forehead

 

"Have a nice workout~"

 

Aaaand she left, seriously personal space could be this woman's pet .

 

"Aren't you going to bed too?"

 

When I asked Ophis she shook her head and denied

 

"I'm going to watch yolu. I want to see your training. "

 

"Well, then we should go out to the garden -----"

 

Before I could finish speaking, I found myself in the garden with Ophis by my side as the world turned upside down once again.

 

I can't take this seriously

 

As for Ophis

 

She walked to a nearby tree and when she extended her hand towards it, the purple-black aura exploded for a moment and destroyed the top of the tree.

 

Not a single piece left

 

If that attack had hit me........

 

Ophis then jumped up and sat down, watching me as she used the remaining log as a seat.

 

Her face had not deviated from its usual monotony, but for some reason I could sense that she was looking at me with curiosity.

 

[Tough crowd, huh?]

 

 

I slowly closed my eyes as I sat cross-legged on the ground.

 

As I cleared my mind, I allowed my own to spread out into nature.

 

Nature was unique

 

Both tough and merciless, both gentle and cruel, both strong and weak

 

But most importantly, both good and bad

 

Being caught in evil stains you with it, so I shouldn't have let nature interfere with its evil.

 

Third person pov

 

Ophis was sitting there looking at Daniele with interest.

 

There were things that were not normally visible to the naked eye...but that was for people who followed the rules of the world, for Ophis...everything else followed her rules, usually.

 

She watched as the transparent bright white life force emanating from Daniele spread into the life force emanating from the surroundings.

 

The surrounding life forces were of various colors

 

Ophis could tell that Daniele was one of the darker ones, so his movements were relatively slow.

 

As the light colored life forces merged, the range of Daniele's expanded.

 

"Slow. Annoying"

 

With Ophis' words, an ominous aura emanated from her body

 

At that moment, from Ophis' point of view, the dark color 'auras' that were trying to merge with Daniele's 'aura' disappeared while the others became much stronger.

 

But Daniele suddenly opened his eyes, gasping for breath, clutching his chest.

 

Daniele pov

 

What....the.....hell.....is.....happening

 

I may not know what happened... but I can.....guess who did...it.

 

"Ophis....you....*Exhale* what did you do???"

 

I barely managed to ask between my breaths.

 

It was as if I had entered a children's swimming pool but suddenly found myself in the adult section, all the life force surrounded me.

 

"Dark life forces. I destroyed that ones and strengthened the light ones"

 

I remained silent...this dragon...

 

[Did she just say that she destroyed the Evil of the World....or did I hear wrong?]

 

 

[Curse!What is this power difference, it's not fair at all!!!]

 

 

But I could see the bigger picture here

 

"Ophis, can you help me?"

 

"How"

 

"Let me give you a hug"

 

I said as I opened my arms

 

[Yes, Mr. Police, it was this person]

 

 

........

 

As we sat on the log Ophis was sitting on, the two of us were sitting shoulder to shoulder, since she had a relatively taller body, it didn't seem that strange.

 

"Ophis, can you please 'little by little' reduce the evil in the world around us, essentially as my Ki approaches "

 

As Ophis nodded, I closed my eyes and began to meditate once more.

 

Five minutes later

 

By one third... the damn growth rate has tripled!

 

I turned to Ophis and hugged her tightly.

 

"I will never leave you!!!"

 

My irreplaceable EXP multiplier!!!

 

The two of you stayed there for a while as I felt Ophis's hands wrap around my back

 

It's a little weird....but right now, training!!!!!!

 

.......

 

Finally, we were invited to breakfast by Shigune who came after a while.

 

Of course we were not alone

 

Dulio, Vasco and Griselda also came for breakfast, Dulio wanted to see Ophis, Vasco and Griselda, mainly to check

 

We all started chatting, laughing and talking while Ophis sat next to me.

 

When I looked at her from the corner of my eye, I saw her lips curl up just a little bit...

 

---------------------

 

Rome / Vatican

 

I was looking at the two people standing in front of me in the Churchyard

 

They were both a boy and a girl who appeared to be 15~16 years old, relatively close in age to each other.

 

The girl was essentially wearing a church one-piece, more like the swimsuit Via wore, but with short black denim shorts underneath.

 

Completed with a loose puffy coat

 

She had white hair with black streaks and red eyes, she definitely resembled her older brothers.

 

.....Lint Sellzen

 

The boy on the other side looked like a close friend of mine

 

Well, it's not weird considering mu friend was his older brother.

 

He had blond hair and green eyes, the glasses he wore over his eyes, and his calm air gave off an intellectual vibe that contrasted with his older brother.

 

He was wearing long boots, a jacket and a noble neck accessory...what was the name of those things

 

It was completed with a sleeveless vest under the jacket and a shirt underneath.

 

....Augustus Raimondi

 

"Okay you two, let's start with the introduction, even though I know you well "

 

"Sure! Me first~~"

 

Lint smiled as she stepped forward.

 

The girl introduced herself with a cheerful expression

 

"Hello Lion-Paisen! I'm Lint ~ Lint Sellzen ♪~"

 

Paisen? Oookeeeeyyy? Is there another Gyaru????

 

Then she reached out and grabbed my hand with both hands and shook it up and down.

 

"I've heard a lot about you! Longinus User, The Lion King, The Lion of Heaven, The Second Coming of Solomon, The Womanaizer, The Harem Beast ---"

 

"Okay, okay, stop it! This thing is going the wrong way you little!!!----"

 

Instead of showing any sadness or offense at my scolding, Lint stepped back while giggling, making way for Augustus.

 

Augustus also stepped forward without any hesitation

 

"Augustus Raimondi, younger brother of Nero Raimondi, who served in the Church as one of the Brave Saints.It's been a long time Mr. Daniele"

 

When Augustus said the last part with a small smile on his face, I smiled back and ruffled his hair roughly.

 

He didn't protest, just resisted with a small grin while closing one eye.

 

"You too brat, seeing that little boy in front of me now...heh I feel old "

 

"Boo~~ there's already favoritism! Hey Augustus, say nice things to paisen in my name later,I want some favoritism too!"

 

Augustus rolled his eyes at Lint

 

I just shrugged

 

"Oh Lint! My stepsister whom I met 20 years ago! How are you??"

 

Lint of course continued without any hesitation.

 

"Big brother--no....Nii-sama!?! Where have you been!My aunt went into hibernation when she couldn't see you!!!"

 

Ohoho~ this girl is good!

 

"I....I was suddenly summoned by a strange man to a tournament between people from all over the multiverse! The cat man forced me into it!!!!!"

 

"No way! Nii-sama has suffered so much!!"

 

Lint said as she suddenly hugged me

 

I hugged her back with a fake cry

 

"It was hard, my dear sister, it was hard "

 

"*sigh* Okay, both of you, please stop it already. We get a lot of stares and it's embarrassing."

 

As Lint and I were looking at the crow, a real Church member was looking at us with curiosity.

 

She and I looked at each other for a moment, then shrugged.

 

"So, Augustus, will you show me your Sacred Gear?"

 

I visited Augustus a few times with Nero when I was a kid, but he wasn't powerful enough to awaken his Sacred Gear at the time, so I never saw it face to face...and I wonder

 

Also important for the mission

 

"Oh, speaking of which, I never showed you "

 

Augustus held his chin and muttered as he thought

 

Then as he shook his head, flames appeared next to him

 

Magnificence emerged from the flames

 

The magnificent creature had a black exterior with a red belly and underside, and also had small claws.

 

He had an iron protrusion on his back and an iron mask-like joint on his face, with torches coming out of his mask and the tip of his tail.

 

He was undoubtedly a perfect being

 

.....a dinosaur

 

"Okay...meet Pyro"

 

"Seriously? Pyro? Wasn't your Sacred Gear's name [Pyro Tyrannus].....how creative"

 

Lint crossed her arms and mocked Augustus, who just looked at her with a smile.

 

"You're just jealous because you don't have a dinosaur"

 

Lint just grunted and turned her head.

 

.....can't blame the girl, its a DINOSAUR!!

 

"This is amazing"

 

I said as I extended my hand

 

Pyro sniffed my hand for a moment and let me pet him

 

I pet a dinosaur.....my childhood dream came true

 

"This... might be the greatest Sacred Gear I've ever seen."

 

I spoke with a tone of emotion and longing in my voice.

 

I wish it was mine too

 

[Oi!]

 

I completely ignored the complaining lion in my mind

 

He is jealous

 

[I'll crush that thing with one claw! Are you so ungrateful?]

 

 

When you were a kid and wanted to see Dinosaurs in real life, then found out they were all die...

 

I BLAME YOU DINO-DAN!!!!!

 

"Mr. Daniele seems to really like Dinosaurs"

 

"Who doesn't love dinosaurs???"

 

Lint nodded wisely and joined in petting Pyro as I immediately responded to Augustus

 

"Anyway, everything aside, is it a elemental fire type?"

 

Its appearance was very clueful, especially the torches on its head and tail.

 

"Yes, in the independent avatar type, he can release Flame and Magma, he is also quite strong physically, but he can't get too far from me."

 

I nodded at his words

 

"This is normal, especially since Independent Avatar types cannot move away too far from their hosts .If you manage to reach Balance Breaker or Abyss Side, the distance will increase"

 

Augustus took out his notebook and wrote down my words.

 

This is a bit of an exaggeration... whatever

 

"Okay, let's talk about the details before we head to the mission... somewhere a little more private."

 

As the two of them nodded, we walked out of the church.

------------------------ 

 

France / Paris

 

We even sat in the restaurant with Lint and Augustus, enjoying the view of the Eiffel Tower.

 

I covered the area around us with a barrier that when viewed from the outside, others would see three people chatting, a barrier with several layers.

 

The two of them were examining the documents I had placed in front of them.

 

"So a Necromancer... shouldn't be too difficult."

 

Lint said with a curious expression as she examined the documents

 

Augustus, sitting next to her, was making a much more careful examination.

 

"Don't relax, Lint, my brother said they were particularly troublesome enemies."

 

As Augustus was scolding her, I decided that the moment for my final intervention had come

 

"And Nero spoke the truth"

 

I continued talking while getting the attention of both of them.

 

"Necromancers often use dead things , corpses or bones and the like as catalysts, and surprisingly, the human body is perfect for such things.There was a reason why humans were offered as sacrifices to the Gods, especially in ancient times. Necromancers are troublesome enemies because you can't predict what they'll do with corpses, so you have to be ready for anything."

 

I emphasized each word to make sure they both understood it thoroughly.

 

At that moment, I smiled at them as they both nodded solemnly.

 

"Eat now, it's on me"

 

I said as I removed the barrier around

 

"You're the best, paisen!"

 

"Thank you Mr Daniele "

 

When I saw that they were both diving into the menus later, I picked up what was in front of me and started choosing food.

 

-------------------

 

Père Lachaise Cemetery

 

Third person pov

 

As the sun slowly began to set, the trio headed to Paris' most famous cemetery

 

They received information from the bishop of Notre Dome Cathedral that the Mage's latest activity took place in this area, which was heaven for a Necromancer.

 

The gradual setting of the sun gave ominous feeling that permeated the numerous monuments and surroundings was sending a slight chill to people.

 

The huge cemetery was surrounded by barriers by the Bishop of the Cathedral, keeping civilians away

 

As the trio walked, Lint suddenly shivered

 

"What a chilling area!"

 

"Of course it is, after all, this is a cemetery."

 

Daniele answered her

 

He then activated his spell as he placed his hand on the ground

 

†Extrasensory Perception†

 

Daniele used his spell to scan the surroundings like a radar while also examining the surroundings with Senjutsu.

 

He then turned to Augustus

 

"IThere are many figures around but I detect two living beings. You and Lint form a group and go along the left path, I go from the right."

 

""Roger!""

 

While they were both saying this, they split into two different directions

 

-----------------------------

 

Daniele was walking between the monuments and also examining the surroundings

 

The cemetery was creepy , he would admit, but the architecture and the monuments... they were really artistic.

 

[They surround us]

 

 

Daniele was talking to Regulus in his mind

 

And just as he said, figures were passing through the surrounding cemeteries, monuments and trees.

 

Thanks to his superhuman senses, he could hear the piercing sounds.

 

He stopped when he reached a clearer point.

 

Daniele's face crumpled when he saw the people coming as he looked around.

 

....Zombies

 

"Wait , them....."

 

Daniele looked at the zombies a little more, because they had an element that normal zombies don't have, an unusual element

 

"....Those flames "

 

All the corpses were surrounded by blue flames

 

Light spears quickly formed around Daniele

 

They suddenly pierced these zombies, but unexpectedly their bodies did not even disappear

 

"This is getting complicated"

 

He muttered as he ran away from the zombie attack surrounding him.

 

When the zombie's attack hit the tree, the tree behind me was destroyed

 

"Are these things really zombies?"

 

Daniele's head was confused as he fought them off.

 

The biggest advantage of zombies has always been numbers and they were not that strong physically but these ones are at least very strong

 

"It must be because of the blue flames---"

 

While Daniele was muttering, a zombie suddenly jumped behind him from where he was running, and the other living corpses took this opportunity to attack him and jumped on him.

 

But before any of them could make contact, wings surrounded by light opened on Daniele's back, and eight wings quickly and swiftly tore the zombies apart.

 

Daniele examined them more carefully as his halo illuminated the surroundings

 

The fallen corpses were merging, essentially being sucked into the blue flames.

 

"So they have an essence"

 

Saying this, a spear of light flew and pierced the blue flame

 

The fact that the corpse stopped merging proved Daniele's point

 

Daniele's gaze then shifted to the others who were beginning to merge, and like the ones before, they too collapsed as the blue fires were pierced by the spears of light.

 

Since there was no one else around, Daniele was about to turn and leave...at least, until he instinctively turns away

 

When he turned back, that thing there...

 

".....little girl"

 

The little girl was truly a little girl, even in Ophis' child form she looked bigger than her

 

And the most important thing about this girl was that.....she was transparent.

 

[This girl...she's a ghost ]

 

This caused Daniele to cast a complicated look at the little girl in front of him.

 

A person's ghost appearance was essentially the same age as when he died, in short, the girl in front of him... died at the age of 5-6

 

The little girl didn't say anything, she just pointed to a spot with her finger and scattered in the air.

 

"What do you say, partner?"

 

When Daniele asked Regulus for his opinion, Regulus remained silent for a few seconds before answering

 

[I say let's listen to the girl's words, I didn't smell or feel any evil from her]

 

"Yeah, me too"

 

Daniele ran to where the girl pointed

 

After a very fast run with Daniele's speed, he saw the familiar naginata user fighting the blue flame zombies in front of her, or rather defeating them easily.

 

When the girl turned to him , the two of them looked at each other for a moment, stunned.

 

-------------------------------

 

Lint and Augustus were walking side by side

 

Augustus had a very large, gold-plated, technological white rifle in his hand.

 

This was one of the Church's advanced equipment developed by Magnus Rose.

 

Lint also had a lot of advanced equipment, but her's was smaller so it wasn't obvious

 

"Ugh! Soooo boring!"

 

Lint spoke in a bored tone as she walked with her hands behind her head

 

"Be careful, Mr. Daniele specifically warned us about this!"

 

"Yeeeep~~ we know, you walking textbook~"

 

"What did you say to me!?"

 

Ignoring Augustus' angry voice, Lint ran forward

 

"Wa---stop you idiot!!!"

 

Augustus chased after him but was noticeably slower due to his rifle and for this reason she disappeared into the monument .

 

"Lint! Seriously, where are you!"

 

While searching for her, Augustus finally came across a huge statue of a crying woman.

 

Hearing the sound of a tree branch breaking, Augustus quickly turned his rifle to that spot.

 

As he started to approach slowly, a hand reached out from behind him and suddenly grabbed his shoulder.

 

"Your time has come~~~"(creepy tone)

 

"Nugya!"

 

.......

 

"Puahahha! He said 'Nugya'....'Nugya' pfftt--- hahahah!!!!"

 

Lint was laughing out loud while holding her stomach

 

Tears almost flowed from her eyes

 

Right in front of her, Augustus' cheeks were turning red and her eyebrows were twitching violently.

 

Suddenly he pointed the gun in his hand at Lint's face

 

Lint raised an eyebrow as she looked at the barrel pointed at her.

 

"Come on~ are we seriously going to do this now, you're overdoing it"

 

Suddenly her eyes shifted to the left.

 

"Especially... IN FRONT OF OUR DEAR GUEST!!!!"

 

Lint leaned quickly to the right as she said this

 

Augustus fired a shot from his rifle at the same time

 

A figure jumped out from where the bullet of light flew and dodged the attack

 

"As if I would allow it"

 

With a grunt through his teeth, Augustus fired the rifle towards where the figure had jumped.

 

However, the other person dodged them all with impressive agility.

 

"Watch my back!"

 

Lint jumped forward as she said this

 

She now had one of the church's light sword in her hand.

 

As she run towards the figure at top speed, she silently mutter prayers from the Bible.

 

The cross around her neck shone with Holy Power

 

With the Holy Power strengthening her body, Lint's speed increased even more.

As Lint swung her sword, the figure's arm underwent a transformation that tore through his sleeve.

 

His arms became more muscular, fur-like hairs began to appear in some parts of his body, and his nails grew extremely long.

 

*Clang!*

 

Sparks were created as the sword and claw collided

 

Unfortunately Lint was physically inferior

 

When the opposing Side applied force, another punch was sent to her face as she took a step back.

 

Lint let her body fall as she gritted her teeth

 

"Don't you know --"

 

She touched the ground with her left hand and swung her foot into the attacker's face

 

"---You shouldn't attack a lady's face!"

 

A sharp blade of light came out of the tip of the shoe

 

While the other side was dodging, he were attacked by many bullets.

 

Lint quickly adjusted she position as her jumped back

 

"Thanks!"

 

"No problem!!!"

 

After a quick conversation between the two, the two finally see the face of their enemies who have moved to the brighter side.

 

The person was a handsome man with a large muscular physique who appeared to be in his late teens.

 

He had gray hair with bangs that slightly covered his yellow eyes and he wore a red headband.

 

He was wearing a black leather jacket with white fur, a white T-shirt, long zip-up boots and knee pads.

 

But the eyes of the duo turned to his left arm.

 

"Werewolf...."

 

Lint muttered

 

"No, A Lycanthrope, aside from the absence of a full moon, the transformation seems to be under control. He also doesn't look like he's crazy "

 

Augustus adjusted her while pushing her glasses up with one hand

 

"What's the difference...let's just fight!"

 

Lint rolled her eyes and attacked with another light sword in her left hand.

 

Augustus was only prepared with grunt

 

As for the Lycanthrope in front of them...he just quietly observed.

 

When he saw the two of them attacking again, he also got ready and a cold light appeared in his eyes.

 

As he extended his hand towards the ground, a brown magic circle opened and flew towards the stone spear duo that had jumped out of the ground.

 

Along with the fire that appeared next to Augustus, a flame dinosaur the same size as himself appeared

 

"Come on Pyro!"

 

With the support of his host, Pyro shoots a lava ball from his mouth

 

They canceled each other out with explosions

 

Lint jumped out of the explosion and threw herself at the Lycanthrope on the other side.

 

He swung his claw while Lint swung her dual swords

 

At that moment, as Lint pressed the hidden button on the swords in her hand, the strength of the swords' light suddenly increased to an extreme level.

 

"What!?"

 

Lycanthrope's arm slid back as a wound opened

 

As Lint swung the sword in her left hand at his body, the Lycanthrope kneed her in the wrist to block it.

 

Lint clenched her teeth from the angle but swung the swords in her hand without stopping

 

Lycanthrope did the same while transforming his other hand

 

As claws and swords clashed, a kick from below forced Lint to jump upwards.

 

He immediately kicked the foot he had kicked and put it on the ground while kicking it up with his other foot.

 

Lint blocked it by crossing her arms, but something fell from her body as he flew back.

 

When the Lycanthrope looked at it, he saw that it was a small object.

 

But before he knew it, a light shone through him that blinded him.

 

"Hah! Suck it!!"

 

Although his vision was blurry, he blocked the light bullets coming towards him with instincts befitting a Lycanthrope.

 

The green magic circle that opened behind him exploded as a wave of wind behind him, throwing his body to the point where the shots came from.

 

Augustus' body hit the ground as he blocked his claws with the rifle

 

But he was caught off guard by the dinosaur that jumped out and hit him

 

 Pyro pushed the Lycanthrope back as he slammed his head into his chest.

 

Even though his hands were caught from the side, Pyro kept pushing him

 

Continued tearing apart trees and graves

 

Lycanthrope was out of breath when grabbed Pyro and threw it

 

"Playtime is over!"

 

His muscles began to swell as he shattered the ground beneath him

 

Elemental attacks erupted from the many magic circles that appeared around him

 

Augustus quickly took out a book with a gold cross on it... the Bible

 

The pages in the book were covered in Holy Light, and began to separate and surround the two of them.

Even though each clash reduced the number of pages, it still resisted the opponent's magic attacks.

 

This continued until a figure appeared in front of the page barriers

 

The Lycanthrope was completely transformed this time

 

His face transformed into that of a wolf, revealing claws that looked like they could cut through metal like paper.

 

As these claws tore through the pages, they flew at two

 

But before they could make contact, a lion with an obsidian glow leapt out from Augustus' shadow, its red eyes appearing

 

As its claws clashed with the Lycanthrope, the latter was thrown back

 

The Lycanthrope, who had righted himself, looked at the newly emerged lion in front of him.

 

"Gowl!!!"

 

Shadow lion, no...Bester stood guard over the two of them

 

At that moment a new voice intervened

 

"I think you've played enough, it's time to stop "

 

When they turned to the sound, Daniele was standing there with a woman

 

The woman with glasses had long black hair and brown eyes (her heterochromia was hidden by the glasses)

 

She had a very long naginata in her hand

 

... Tsubaki Shinra

 

"Loup-san, it seems like there was a misunderstanding, they are not enemies"

 

At Tsubaki's words, Loup, Lint and Augustus looked at each other shocked .
