[188] Guiding Kiba!
[188] Guiding Kiba!
Excitement! Killing intent! Madness! Anger!
Various emotions intertwined within Kiba, making it hard for him to find peace.
"Kiba, hating a lifeless weapon won't help you. Instead, find your true enemy, the mastermind behind the Holy Sword Project. That's the real revenge."
"The mastermind behind the Holy Sword Project? Valper Galilei!"
He naturally had a deep impression of the person who ordered the assassination of himself and his comrades.
"It's him. He worshipped God since childhood, idolizing the Holy Sword. Unfortunately, he lacked the adaptability to the Holy Sword, so he wasn't chosen. It became a lifelong regret for him."
"So, because of his regret, he decided to harm us?"
"There's no other way. This world is like this, survival of the fittest. With power, one can do things."
Boom~
Angry flames soared into the sky, and around Kiba, numerous demonic swords emerged from the ground.
The supernatural research department's building, already in ruins, faced further destruction. Nothing was left now.
"Rias, do you all like doing things like this? You, Akeno, and him, only Koneko is a bit better."
"Well-"
Rias didn't know what to say. It was difficult to control emotions when they were running high.
An sacred gear, fueled by the owner's thoughts, continuously evolved and grew stronger. Kiba's thoughts, or rather, his intense anger, directly ignited the creation of the demonic sword, making it even stronger.
Although it was a bit short of reaching the Balance Breaker, Kiba's current strength surpassed what it was before.
"Control your anger. This is the territory of your club president, don't act recklessly."
August's words snapped Kiba back to reality. He began to restrain his magical power, undoing the demonic sword creation.
"Yes."
Facing August, Kiba showed great respect. August helped him understand who his real enemy was. As August had said, harboring hatred towards a sword was meaningless, his true enemy was the mastermind behind the Holy Sword Project.
"By the way, Valper Galilei was expelled from the Church after the Holy Sword Project because his actions crossed the line."
"Expelled?"
"Yes, he was expelled."
"So many of us died, and he only got expelled?"
Kiba laughed bitterly. The lives of so many children exchanged for the expulsion of a murderer?
"After all, his skills are valuable. By extracting the Holy Element from the bodies of many superficially adapted individuals, he could create a designated Holy Sword adapter."
"Heh, is this still a church? What's the difference from an experimental facility?"
"In the first place, there is no difference. Heaven, the Church, are just different factions, similar to devils and fallen angels."
August's words made Kiba's thoughts firm. In this world, strength was everything.
"Also, Valper Galilei is still alive and in contact with the fallen angels."
"As long as he's alive, I can personally take revenge for everyone."
The flames of anger and hatred burned fiercely. Kiba, at this moment, resembled a vengeful ghost.
Rias watched with concern. She didn't want her family to be blinded by hatred. The power obtained in exchange for revenge was not worth it. The fate of avengers was not a good one, even if revenge left behind only emptiness and confusion.
Bang~
Just as Rias was about to speak and advise Kiba, August slapped him on the forehead.
"Who are you showing off to? If you want revenge, get stronger. Don't worry your club president here."
This slap instantly woke Kiba up. Seeing Rias, Akeno, and Koneko looking at him with worried expressions, he suddenly remembered that he already had a new family.
Hatred was his own, but if it made his family worry, then it was his fault.
"Sorry, President, for making you worry."
"It's fine. It's good that you've come to your senses."
Warmth, the warmth of home. This was how Kiba felt at this moment.
He was fortunate to meet Rias, who not only saved his life but also considered him family.
For his peerages, Rias was very considerate. She made each of them have their own territory within the Gremory family's domain.
Whether it was Akeno, Koneko, or Kiba, each had their own territory.
The entire Occult Research Club was composed of rare individuals who remained hidden.
"By the way, Kiba, your Sacred Gear, Sword Birth, has great potential. However, your development is too one-sided. Since it's a sword creation, why do you need to create and wield swords?"
Hum~
As August's words fell, golden ripples appeared in the surroundings, and weapons extended one after another.
This scene stunned Rias and the others. Wow, so many weapons?
Kiba was also dumbfounded. This attack method seemed quite suitable for himself.
He had created a large number of demonic swords by consuming magical power. If he used this method, it could indeed significantly enhance his strength.
Looking at Kiba, who was expressing a 'found a treasure' expression, August couldn't help but smirk.
The possibilities of Sacred Gears were vast, and Kiba's development was too one-sided.
In Hero Faction, there was a girl who carried Joan of Arc's spirit and also possessed same Sacred Gear, Blade Blacksmith.
In her hands, Blade Blacksmith had been developed into a subspecies balance breaker, creating a large Dragon made of Holy Swords. Its combat strength was not weak.
Kiba also borrowed her idea and later created the subspecies balance breaker, Glory Drag Trooper.
Now, he showed him in advance the attack method of his treasury. Perhaps it could enable him to create a Sword Birth version of his treasury shot.
Rias looked at August with infinite curiosity. Because August was too mysterious, it seemed like he knew everything. He knew everything about Akeno, Koneko, and now even Kiba's past. How much did he know?
Moreover, August was the only descendant of the demon clan, adding an extra layer of mystery to him.
All these factors combined made her more interested in August, making her want to know everything about him.
