DN : [180] vs. Rias!
🕑 Added 2024-05-12 16:00:08 +0000 UTCIn the depths of the mountains, on one of the rare flat areas, August and Rias faced each other.
Power of Destruction had already begun to emanate from Rias. In contrast, August stood there nonchalantly, as if defeating Rias posed no pressure at all.
"If by chance you lose an arm or a leg, don't worry, I'll take care of you."
As she spoke, Rias extended her hand, and the Gremory family crest quickly manifested. A magic circle appeared, unleashing a destructive force like a surging torrent.
Seeing this, August chuckled, leaped up, evading the power of destruction's attack.
Looking back, the ground behind him had turned into a deep pit, and the residual magic power continued to burn like flames.
"If that's all you've got, it's not enough to defeat me."
With that, Rias unfolded her wings and also ascended into the air.
August smiled faintly, darkness transformed into wings, allowing him to freely soar in mid-air.
Seizing the opportunity, Rias summoned a massive crimson magic circle, followed by a barrage of densely-packed magical projectiles aimed at August.
All the attacks carried power of destruction, and their power was not to be underestimated.
"Good attacks. Now it's my turn."
Hum~
Behind August, five golden ripples appeared, extending into five magic staves.
This sight surprised Rias. While magic staves existed in this world, they were mainly used by human mages. Powerful races didn't need magic staves as a medium.
In the moment Rias was astonished, the attacks had already begun.
Flame staff, hurricane staff, thunder staff, raging waves staff, earth staff.
Five staves representing the world's most primitive elements.
Blazing flames, swift and sharp hurricanes, violently raging thunder, tsunami-like tidal waves, and finally, the trembling rocks of the earth.
Five types of mega-sized magic were released.
This immediately shocked Rias, who summoned a magic circle to block all these spells.
However, with each impact, the color of the magic circle dimmed. After withstanding all the magic, the array shattered with a 'bang.'
Maintaining the magic circle required Rias's magic power, and it wasn't without consumption.
"Oh dear, what's happening? This was just a preliminary test, and it couldn't hold up?"
Before she could catch her breath, August's infuriating voice reached Rias, making her face turn iron blue.
"Destruction!"
With no mercy, the surging power of destruction erupted like anti-aircraft guns, shooting straight into the sky.
"Full Counter!"
In the moment the power of destruction approached, August took out a sword and activated his counter skill.
The power of destruction then redirected towards Rias.
As the owner of the power of destruction, Rias had never experienced such a dramatic turn of events.
"Rias!"
"President!"
"Be careful!"
Akeno, Koneko, and Kiba were extremely worried. They were well aware of the immense power of destruction.
Rumble~
Following that, the power of destruction grazed the tips of Rias's hair, falling directly onto the forest behind her, obliterating it completely. Surprisingly, Rias herself only lost a strand of hair.
Rias felt like she had walked a circle through the gates of death. She was drenched in cold sweat.
A moment ago, with just a slight slip of August's hand, she could have died on the spot, under her own power of destruction.
"What ability is this? It can counter the power of destruction and even increase its power."
"Full Counter, my ability. It can reflect any magic attribute attack back with double intensity, and this counter is independent of my strength and magic power."
"How is such an ability possible? This is truly too unfair."
Rias couldn't believe it, but the recent events forced her to accept it.
At this moment, Akeno and the others ran over. Seeing the unharmed Rias, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.
However, the trouble was up in the sky with August.
Without a doubt, his strength surpassed Rias's already. It seemed unlikely that Rias could defeat him.
But if she truly lost, would Rias have to spend a night with him?
If she did that, Rias would definitely become a sinner in the Gremory family. Having an engagement, she gave her body to another man would be a severe blow to both the Gremory family and the Phenex family.
At that time, even if her brother Satan Lucifer could save her, her reputation in the Underworld would be ruined.
"How about it? Do you want to continue? You can all attack together, I don't mind."
August continued to speak, showing no interest in just Rias alone.
However, hearing August say this angered the four of them. This was outright contempt, he didn't even regard them.
"Pervert-senpai~"
Koneko's face was full of anger. Any bit of good impression she had towards August had disappeared.
Directly putting on her brass knuckles, as soon as Rias agreed, she would immediately charge up and confront August.
Kiba also summoned a plethora of magic swords, and the lightning in Akano's hand was flickering. It seemed like they were all ready for battle.
August looked down from above, calmly waiting for Rias's decision.
Although they had only clashed twice, the gap between them was already evident. August's strength was undoubtedly superior to Rias's. Therefore, how would Rias choose?
"Step back, everyone. This is my battle."
Rias raised her head, her gaze fixed on August, and the power of destruction around her flared up once again, even more intense than before.
August's eyes brightened at this unexpected power boost.
"Rias..."
Akeno wanted to persuade her, but seeing Rias's determined gaze, she held back.
Rias faced August in a staring contest, and the magic power on her surged to its limit.
Swish~
Her legs slightly bent, then instantly exerted force. Rias leaped into the air.
In mid-air, the power of destruction coiled around Rias's hands. Since magic attacks were ineffective, she decided to use close combat, concentrating the power of destruction in her hands!
