CxC Chapter 58: Reveal
🕑 Added 2025-05-27 20:17:48 +0000 UTC~Yuta Yukimura~
I did not even think twice about rolling the ticket simply not running away had given me.
Rolling Gold Ability Gacha...
A Rare Ability.
[Water Manipulation]
|Rarity: Rare| |Class: Manipulation|
Allows the user to create and control water, the more energy they expend, the larger quantities of water they can create and control and the more force they can apply to the water.
Great, it is fucking useless here.
Kokabiel's summons poured out of the portals as Kiba, Xenovia and Irina took up formation alongside Koneko as Kokabiel watched with interest. Irina looked towards Xenovia, exchanging a knowing look between the two.
"Xenovia, no better time to unleash that right now. And I need a weapon too."
Xenovia nodded, throwing Excalibur Destruction towards Irina who caught it in the air and got into a stance while Xenovia extended her hand to the side and started... chanting?
"Petra, Basilius, Dionysus and Mary, the holy mother. Hear my voice."
In response to her chant, a magical circle of holy light formed itself in front of her hand, holy magic pouring out of it like a faucet. A hilt wrapped in chains extending from it.
"In the name of that saint that dwells in this sword, I will unleash..."
Xenovia grabbed that handle and pulled, breaking the chains and pulling out a giant blade almost as tall as she was, carved from blue metal gilded in gold yet it was sharp, sharper than anything I had ever seen. And the immense holy aura from it sent shivers down my spine. Probably on par with the Roxcalibur itself.
"-The Holy Sword, Durandal!"
Xenovia got into a stance with the holy sword she just pulled out as shocked faces covered the arena, including my own as Kokabiel howled with laughter as if Xenovia herself was just a massive joke to her.
"I can't believe it! That little sheep is the next wielder of Durandal!? How hilarious, not only did they give the Holy Sword capable of cleaving anything in half to a little girl, but they sent her against me! This is so hilarious that I might just keel over before Sirzechs comes here! HAHAHA!!!"
Xenovia glared at Kokabiel before pointing her sword towards him challengingly. His army of summons sitting on standby as Kokabiel narrowed his eyes.
"A little girl? If you dare underestimate the holy Durandal like that why don't you come down and taste it for yourself?"
Great job Xenovia, I am sure you must feel so cool after challenging a Cadre like that. But there are already plenty of summons around us just dying to taste that blade. Maybe don't try to commit suicide by Cadre before you take care of those?
I doubt Kokabiel cares much about her provocations considering how much of a joke he saw her as.
But contrary to whatever I expected, Kokabiel roared with laughter, throwing his head back before he left his fucking chair.
"That's right. Why don't I get a taste of it myself? See what the squirt that worthless church chose this time can do. See if you can measure up to even a nth of you predecessor little girl."
"Oh, Xenovia you dumb bitch."
"W-wha!?"
I couldn't but let my real thoughts slip out as this bitch managed to get stop the final boss from sitting by idly and instead join the fucking fight.
If we survive this, I am beating the concept of picking the right fights into that thick fucking skull of hers. It may as well be so thick I doubted there was enough room to store brain cells in there.
Kokabiel created a sword light for himself as he landed in front of the girl, snapping his fingers as the summons growled and started advancing.
"The rest of you can play with my familiars while I test the girl out. Now then, show me if your arrogance is warranted, little girl!"
With that Xenovia lunged at Kokabiel as I turned my attention to the summons rushing towards us. Bracing my fists, even without using any abilities I was easily a match for Koneko. But just in case I replaced Shadow Storage with Bulk Up, but not before taking out the cape levitation that attached itself to my back.
Then I turned on Bulk Up, feeling my muscles power up I lunged at the nearest demonic beast and slugged its skull. Caving it in with one punch before I turned to the other one.
Everyone was immersed in their own fights, Rias blasting away hordes with her waves of Destructive Power, moving them down faster than anyone, Akeno summoned down lightning empowered by the Orb of Firmament. Asia was with Koneko, Irina and Kiba as she healed the three melee fighters as they fought against the horde, Irina herself showing great skill with Excalibur Destruction as she outpaced even Kiba with the destructive power it granted her.
I was also holding my own, but also being careful to not overextend myself. Even still, I did not have infinite stamina and Kokabiel's horde was relentless. As I kicked away a hellhound Kokabiel spoke loudly after he casually kicked Xenovia away with a yawn, launching her and making her tumble across the ground like a ragdoll.
"Quite disappointing little girl. Your predecessor could have done better while sleeping. At least I should commend your will to fight despite knowing how doomed your worthless cause is!"
Xenovia stabbed Durandal as she stood up with groaned breaths.
"Do not... call my god-given duty worthless...!"
Kokabiel looked confused before laughing, laughing harder than ever as Xenovia froze up.
"AHAHAAHAHA! I can't believe it! Duty given by who? God's corpse? Or Micheal pretending to be him? I can't believe it! Ahaha! I forgot that was a secret!"
Xenovia looked horrified as she shouted at Kokabiel.
"Kokabiel! What do you mean!"
"Ahahaahaaa!!! What do I mean? I mean what I said. It is a secret but what am I hiding when I'm trying to create war? Your god died long ago against the original Satans! Why do you need Heaven to rely on the church as a crutch so much? With God's death, Pure Angels can no longer reproduce, so they rely on the faith of humans for support. Micheal, he has done an excellent covering up God's death."
Xenovia dropped to her knees, shaking like a leaf in the wind and Irina's sword clattered to the ground at the same time. In fact, everyone here wore faces of utter shock. I was also shocked but a to a letter extent.
Sure, god being dead was shocking. But I was more worried about Kokabiel right now more than anything.
"Liar. Liar."
Xenovia muttered despondently while Kokabiel nonchalantly shrugged his shoulders.
"Hah! Why should I bother lying? I don't care either way."
Asia stood on shaking knees as she raised a fragile voice.
"B-but what about his blessings? We can still feel his presence! How can it be..."
"Micheal is doing a good job then. Ever since God's death, he took over to hide the fact. As long as the Heaven system is running, no one has a reason to doubt. Well, not like this information will do any of you any good while dead. Another may enjoy your suffering but I don't fancy myself as a sadist."
I didn't know what to do as Kokabiel raised his light sword high, like a guillotine of pure holy power above Xenovia's head.
"Well then, die church girl. Don't worry, I'll put that pretty sword of yours into good use!"
'Void Traveler Devil Trigger'
As if responding to my desire without my intent, I used Devil Trigger and the world around me shattered into the void. I had fused Devil Trigger with Void Trigger, and with the time dilation in effect I rushed forward, reaching Xenovia before Kokabiel's blade did and leaving Void Realm as I grabbed her and pulled her along with me.
Swooosh!
"Urgh!!! Fuck!"
"What is this? Azazel's new interest? How curious. Why is a devil so willing to throw their life away for an Exorcist?"
I landed away from Kokabiel with Xenovia in my arms, my teeth grit hard enough to draw blood. It hurt so fucking much. I wasn't fast enough, Kokabiel had shorn off one of my fucking wings with his blade of light. It was being both burnt and melted at the same time. It felt like poison coursing through my limbs, my body felt stiff as I let go of Devil Trigger and slotted in Regeneration in place of Void Travel.
"Yuta! Kokabiel! How dare you hurt my Yuta!"
Xenovia looked at my face in shock while I heard Rias' enraged words as she unleashed a ball of destructive energy that dwarfed a building in size. It was an attack that I wouldn't have been able to block even with devil trigger but for Kokabiel...
"How disappointing. Neither you nor the girl match up to your betters."
He simply smacked it away as he started floating into the air. The amount of magical energy radiating off of him made me nauseous.
"Whatever, I'm bored now. I'll simply skewer you all and be done with it. Maybe Serafall will give me some good entertainment once she finds the ashes of her sister. Ahahahaah!"
Kokabiel created a giant lance of light and shot it down towards us.
Death.
I cycled through all of my abilities yet found no way to stop it.
I gritted my teeth. But just before I was about to try something drastic, something unexpected happened.
""""!!!!!!!!!""""
Booooom!!!
An explosion shook the entire world as a large blue ghost-like transient flame collided with the spear of light, both bursting into an explosion of sparks upon collision.
Everyone turned their heads to the source of the blue flame that had appeared. Koneko and the others in the Occult Club looked especially spooked about the new visitor.
A woman with a curvy figure wearing a traditional Japanese kimono loosely draped over her body, she had silky black hair and golden eyes. The most distinguishing feature about her was the pair of cat ears on her head.
"I'm afraid I cannot let you hurt Shirone or my dear Nya~"
"Sister...!" "Kuroka?"
Koneko cried out with a conflicted expression as the woman turned to her with a wry smile. Rias looked alarmed by her presence too but the woman did not threaten us in the least. For some reason, she felt really familiar to me."
"Hello, Shirone. I'm sorry I couldn't come back for you earlier. But I'm here now. And I'm here for you too master."
Wait... that silky black hair. That scent. That Cheshire grin...
"Bobby Black the Third!?!?"
Bobby turned to me with a bright blushing face as she stomped on the ground just as Bobby would. Well, if Bobby was a busty babe that is.
"That's nyot my name!!!"
My brain is fucking melting.
"When the fuck did you turn into a girl!? How the fuck can you match Kokabiel!? What the fuck is happening!?"
Not Bobby offered me an apologetic smile as she turned back to Kokabiel.
"I'm sorry for deceiving you Yuta-kyun, but we can talk about it after we deal with Kokabiel. I consider myself to be pretty strong but Kokabiel is a tough cookie, especially for a devil like me."
So, apparently, my pet cat is strong enough to tangle with Kokabiel. I'd say what the fuck but the word is starting to lease meaning with how much I repeat it like a broken alarm.
"Alright, Not Bobby. Can you stall Kokabiel until help arrives?"
Not Bobby turned to me with an aggrieved look.
"You... whatever nya. Yes, I can hold him back enough for one of you to escape." She turned from me back to Kokabiel with a confident expression.
"So, how about it Kokabiel? Fancy fighting someone your own size for once?"
Kokabiel craned his neck with an amused expression before unleashing all 10 of his wings intimidatingly.
"Amusing! How amusing! Another devil crawls out of the woodworks, while you might not be Serafall you'll do for now as an appetizer! I needed something to appease my boredom!"
But in an act that no one expected, Kokabiel swept his hand and the priest chanting in front fo the Excalibur was impaled by several light spears, Not Bobby went to action to pursue Kokabiel but had to switch to defence as he sent a hail of spears towards us, making her put up a barrier and allowing Kokabiel to grab the sword that had floated down from the pillar of yellow energy.
"What better way to execute the likes of devils than with the Excalibur?"
The swords in his hands morphed to match him as the holy aura pouring out of him intensified even more than before somehow. I saw Not Bobby shed a cold sweat.
"...This might nyot go as easy as I hoped it would."
If even our new helper is saying that...
...We are fucked, aren't we?
A/N: Just off to the start already and things are going downhill and off track fast. Irina is actually here to get her worldview completely shattered and Kokabiel is far less willing to sit on his ass and watch. Thankfully we have a big reveal heroine protecting us.
That's right folks, Kuroka chose Yuta and Koneko over the Chaos Nerds. This is the third ultimate tier Yuta has unknowingly seduced. But just as Kuroka is here to save the day. Kokabiel with Excalibur is here to ruin it. This is will not be an easy or clean battle that's for sure. What did you guys think about the Kuroka debut and the changes to the fight? I'd love to know.

Rauko the varment
Lmao! The name he gave kuroka! Love this chapter since it left me on the edge of my seat, BUT, why did this chapter end with a turd of cliffhanger darn it! Still, definitely loving this novel and i definitely need MOAR!!!
BronzDeck
Yuta is stopped by sending Excalibur to the shadow realm by the Cadre holding onto it. And even if he chraged in after sending away Excalibur Yuta would be instantly one shot. His opponent is not only a Cadre but he is weaker to light than the average devil by 4x(2x Demon Lord, Using Devil Trigger), he would be vaporized by a single light spear.
BronzDeck
Actually, "nth" is a vaild word. An nth means you don't measure up ot any percentage of something. Thanks for pointing out the other mistakes through, I appreciate it.
BronzDeck
Kokabiel's plans don't change unless you completely derail plot heavily early on. And Kokabiel serves as a good way to how little shit your MC is most of the time. And this fight definitely does not go the same way it did in canon
Alex I
Not going to lie, the coco pebbles fight/scene is always so boring and stale to me. Why does everyone insist on using the same stupid plot beats despite almost everyone also lambasting the original author for how bad it was? Our MC doesn't even really have titty plot armor to pull him out of the fire like Issei did the whole series so it's all down to either sudden backup arriving or some weird slightly stretched use of his current abilities that shouldn't work given the sheer difference in power output between them...

Glitched Knights
And with the Fox Devil being in DXD, I believe while in the Devil Trigger Yuta MIGHT'VE been able to use Senjutsu. Especially with it being a fear tied to Yokai, like foxes
Glitched Knights
Question. Did our boy remember to make a contract with the Fox Devil or not? If he did, than should've been able to use her while he Devil Triggered like how Dante and Vergil can with their Devil Arms. A Devil Arm is, essentially, a Devil/Demon who has made a contract with the welder to reach greater heights. That, and usually not to get killed by their contractor

Will Irina become a devil ?
Romero
Mama Tia gon be pissed. Also, I NEED MORE!!!!!
Colin Peden
I loved the reveal of Bobby being Kuroka and coming in for the save. Now we need Yuta to use Void Travel to get out of the barrier erected by Kokabiel. Then get a hold of Tiamat and call for help, maybe get some sigil or another to call Sirzechs and/or Serafall as well. Then have them break the barrier and give Kokopuffs the good old 1, 2 , 3!

Call Tia Mama Quick!
Jacob Faircloth
Damn, man. Was not expecting Kuroka to "debut" this soon (despite being around for a while). And yay! Irina is here to have her entire worldview crumble alongside Xenovia and Asia! Can't wait to see what happens next!
Vinicius Vieira
mommy Tia for the rescue i guess
Rez
Great chapter, really wasnt expecting Bobby to be the savior here, but maybe she'll buy just enough time for somebody cardre level to jump in , or yuta better get a Issei power up π
dontenglish
Hypothetically whatβs stopping yuta from just banishing Excalibur to the shadow storage an performing his god given job as the tank via making a devil trigger using a fusion of regeneration and natural weapons plus bulk up and going to town without worry for are selves
