Chapter 58: 58

"Think about it, Issei is the supposed wielder of the Booster Gear and you demonstrated to have a Sacred Gear Longinus. Although they don't like it, it makes you a serious threat to them. Worse, in their opinion, you can become a weapon to be used against them, if some other faction or even other pantheons have reached it"

"And seeing how the Fallen had already discovered it, they feared that the others would soon follow." I finished for her. It made sense, the Fallen had already taken over [Divine Dividing] along with [Canis Lykaon] and even [Absolute Demise] and the Angels had me, at least before, so the Church had two other Longinus by her side, the [Zenith Tempest] and the [Regulus Nemea] thus making the Devil Faction much weaker by not having any Longinus .

At my words, a smile began to grow on Sona's face. "Well, if you're still upset about the way Rias handled Issei, you're going to love this news."

I raised an eyebrow at this: "Does it have anything to do with why you were in a good mood when you walked in and why you wanted Gremory to 'feel'?"

Though she blushed slightly at that her smile didn't fade a bit. "You need to understand that even though Rias is one of my dearest friends whomI really love, she's still been driving me crazy for the past week.

"She took every opportunity to rub it in my face that she was about to receive two Longinus users in her Peerage. Though she didn't. Or how wrong I was for wanting to kick out the Perverted Trio and how right she was for wanting them to stay." Sona reached out her hands and held them in front of her like she was about to strangle something.

"It got to the point where I just wanted to strangle that pretty throat of hers." Her smile looked more than a little strained when she said that. In fact, it was starting to look scary.

"But then," her smile turned 180 and became much more genuine, "I heard the most wonderful news before I arrived. I just met Kiba on the way to morning training and found out what happened to Issei."

"What?" I asked, more than a little concerned about the child. "Something went wrong? They didn't stop resurrecting him, did they?"

"Oh no, no, no." Sona's smile turned into a wide grin.

"Nothing went wrong. Quite the contrary. In fact, everything went according to plan. The Fallen killed Issei, Rias appeared at the last second and successfully resurrected him as a pawn, as she wanted."

"I don't see why you're so happy about this."

Sona's smile was still firmly in place, and she continued. "Ah, but I still haven't told you the best part. It seems that the shock and pain of his injuries caused Issei to awaken his Sacred Gear before he died. "

Ah I understood what was making Sona so happy.

I couldn't help suppressing a smile.

"He awakened your Sacred Gear." Her smile, if possible, widened even further when her glasses seemed to glow in the sunlight. "However, it turns out that the Sacred Gear he awakened wasn't the Booster Gear, not even another Longinus." She paused, clearly trying to extract the moment before continuing: "It was a [Twice Critical]"

I gave it my all not to smile at that.

Rias was so sure Issei had the [Boosted Gear] that she didn't expect this one.

Of course Issei originally had it, but not now.

Actually Rias didn't know Hakuryuukou was with Grigori, so she thought Issei had the [Boosted Gear] or the [Divine Dividing], so when I showed up with Ddraig's power she thought Issei would be Hakuryuukou.

She was so sure of something like that.

But it seems that Issei only managed to wake up [Twice Critical] and not the others, his body and mind are much weaker than I imagined.

Sona laughed, honest with the laughter of the Satan witch, at my reaction before speaking:

"A piece of pawn, just a despicable pawn Gilgamesh. It wasn't even a mutant, but a completely regular pawn. This is even worse because Twice Critical should automatically double a person's value, meaning that Issei's basic stats don't even are valued at half pawn - damn it, my rival, now you can finally feel it.

"Oh Rias it rubbed in my face that she had been buying a Longinus for so long, making me burn with envy and anger at how I could have missed it, only to have it turn into the Twice Critical. Worse, she ended up with one of the Perverted Trio on your date." Sona opened her hands in glee.

"I'm so happy with that boy that I'm not kicking out the other two. They'll be a reminder of this day, and whenever I'm in a bad mood, I'll just look at them and think about this moment and laugh." What she went on to do just that.

I couldn't help but laugh with her.

And from what looked like three Sacred Gears it took only one pawn to resurrect it, honestly this is disappointing.

"Now don't get me wrong Gilgamesh, I love Rias, but sometimes it seems like she's still very lucky when it comes to Peerage members. That for the first time, just once, her luck deserted her, finally made things fair .

"I just want to join her in Club and start laughing in front of her," Sona says before bursting out laughing.

We both laughed for a long time after that.

Some time later.

After lots of laughs with Sona I go back to my house.

Looks like Valerie wanted to see me and had something amazing to show.

When I get there I see that everyone is in the Garden.

"Finally in master" says Mordred as she tapped his foot.

"Sorry for the delay," I say.

"Did you say you had something awesome to show?" I ask.

Asia nods, quickly explaining, "Well, we were worried about you and Sebas's most powerful weakness in dragon-type weapons, at least against ours, and we wanted to work on fixing it. Can you show him, Enkidu-san?"

A professional nod from my friend has a flash of light in front of him, a curved hawk-like blade in his open palms... and I immediately feel my eyebrow twitch violently as I look at the thing.

"So someone's ass is wrinkling just looking at that thing?"

Enkidu blinks at my unconventional description before shrugging to himself, explaining, "This is a dragon slayer sword I know how to make. Normally, this would easily cut any of us, especially you and Sebas, right?"

"Yes..."

Valerie suddenly laughs, winking at me as she does.

"Well look what I did~!"

Without preamble, Mordred, who has taken Enkidu's sword, approaches Sebas and swings the sword at his torso.

And without blinking, we see it ricochet off his abdomen, smiling as Enkidu dissipates the sword without further comment.

...

"That's it-"

"Heh heh...yeah it was me~!"

Valerie offers a peace sign of all things before proudly puffing out her chest - don't stare, Gilgamesh - and informs me, "I've finally managed to change things using my Sacred Gear! Of course, it's simple things like removing super obvious weaknesses.. .but I think I can start to improve now! "

...

Holy crap.

In just a few months, hell, in just a few weeks, Valerie learned to correctly change very fundamental things about our bodies.

...

Has the power curve in this world always been so broken? I feel like the dumb kid in the classroom for taking more than ten years to reach my level.

Putting those thoughts aside, I smile, announcing, "Well, that's the best news I've heard today! Hey, do you think you could make me next?"

... Slightly weird phrases.

She doesn't seem to understand the insinuation, just smiling and announcing, "Of course! Just give me a moment here..."

Advancing the Dhampir puts her hands on my chest, closing her eyes and concentrating deeply when she suddenly starts mumbling to herself, almost like she's in some kind of trance.

... I don't feel any difficulties

Fuck you cold.

Changing your soul is a very... unusual experience. And by unusual, I mean, it feels freezing, for some bizarre reason. Judging by Sebas's confused look at my shuddering reaction he hadn't suffered anything like that.

Jesus, looks like someone put some ice cubes in my heart and stomach!

My teeth start chattering when Valerie finally finishes her work and… gives me a confused look?

She stares for a few awkward moments, and just as I'm about to ask if something went wrong with the process, she gets a bright smile, happily stating, "Okay, you're ready Gilgamesh! Totally immune to dragon slayer weapons ! Enkidu? "

Before I can say I'm not ready for this my knight swings that blade curves in my arm-

- and with a dull pain as if someone had hit me with a two to four blow, the sword ricocheted, not a slight bruise on my flesh.

"Well I'll be cursed…it really worked."

Gritting his teeth, reaching out and patting Valerie on the head, the Dhampir chuckles to himself as he compliments her with, "Well, this is just outstanding work you've done today, Valerie. All of you too, this is a big step forward for front . We-

GGRRROOWWWLLLL!

I'm silent as we all stare at Valerie, the Dhampir's face slowly turning red with embarrassment.

"Eh heh...heh? Using my Sacred Gear might have made me a little, um...hungry?"

We all burst out laughing as Valerie pouts, one porcelain cheek huffing in irritation until she finally catches her breath to ask, "Well, in that case… does anyone feel like steak, potatoes, and salad?"

Enkidu immediately perks up and asks, "Ooh, can we do it?!"

Valerie looked horrified and says.

"No way, we have to have something else today!"

Mordred gives a big smile: "Yes, let's make hamburgers"

An argument quickly breaks out and I approach Asia, the girl looking at the heated debate with a confused expression.

"What about you Asia? Do you have any specific requests for the chef?"

She jumps, startled by my sudden question before hurriedly answering, "O-oh, alright Gilgamesh... it's just, um... I've never eaten steak so I can't say one way or the other that way I would like..."

Laughing, I wrap an arm around her shoulders and reply good-naturedly, "Well, then tonight I'm going to have to make a special meal just for you! How some meat cooked in between what these three want ? for starters?"

Her eyes widen before she frantically shakes her hands, stammering, "N-no, I couldn't! Everyone has their own desires, I couldn't-"

She cuts herself off as I genuinely laugh at her rash words.

"Asia, what these three seem to be forgetting is that I have a big kitchen and a big freezer. Not to mention a little time on my hands. I can make three kinds of food, no problem."

She blinks once at dawn.

And she blushes gracefully, replying, "O-oh, right...I forgot."

I smile at her: "Don't worry we're having a feast today"

I say as we walk into the house.

Later.

Ahh... a healthy meal.

Cleaning the last of the dishes next to my sensitive appliances, I stretch my back and am more than ready to surrender the night...

"Umm, Gilgamesh? Can I talk to you about something... kind of private?"

A wild Dhampir appears!

...

Now is not the time for Pokémon references, brain.

Smiling at Valerie as she shyly peeks her head around the kitchen doorframe, I nod amiably, asking, "Sure, I'll be in the living room in just a moment."

Blonde hair turns the corner as she hurries into the room mentioned, a slight frown turning my lips as I ponder what this conversation might entail.

... This has something to do with my soul, and why was it so cold when she changed it? Or did she discover something?

There's only one way to find out...

Following in his footsteps, I reach the sofa and the living room with sofas, a fire blazing in the fireplace when I see Valerie shifting nervously from one foot to the other, her hands clasped anxiously in front of her.

...And I'm pretty sure my brain needs to reset itself to see what she's wearing.

A pure white doll dress that hangs from the shoulders, all in lace and see-through material with vanilla socks and garter belts to accentuate the creamy legs.

...

I really hope this doesn't turn out to be some kind of dangerous, relationship-altering conversation, because most of the blood left my head for the other.

Sorry brain. But you're running on the reserve fuel tank for now.

"Erm...that might seem like a pretty weird question, Gilgamesh...but are you, well...from this plane of existence?"

...

...

...

God, dammit.
