“What kind of magic is that?”
“The Forbidden Move of the Demonic Sword has been canceled!”
Rias, Yubelluna, and the other girls were shocked, and even Tenraku had a grave expression on his face.
What was that eerie Magic Power just now?!
Tenraku’s mind raced, and he had some guesses in his heart but he needed to confirm them.
“Cloud of Swords Fall from Heaven!” With a single hand raised, Tenraku unleashed the power of the Ame-no-Murakumo sword. Suddenly, a purple light filled the dim barrier space, and a sharp sword beam descended from the sky with a piercing sound.
Feeling the immense power contained within the sword beam, Bikou and Arthur were astonished and quickly flew to the sides. However, Vali, without dodging or evading, extended his palm and directly caught the sword beam in the sky.
Under normal circumstances, Vali’s action would have been suicidal. However, what shocked everyone once again was that the sword beam that hit Vali didn’t harm him at all. It simply vanished!
“How is this possible…”
“So, Vali, this is the power you awakened, isn’t it?!”
Rias and the other girls found it hard to believe, while Tenraku confirmed something and his expression turned grim.
If he wasn’t mistaken, Vali’s awakened power was Sacred Gear Canceller!
It could render all Sacred Gear powers into nothingness, it was as if it were a power specifically designed to counter Tenraku’s abilities!
“It seems you finally understand my power, Kamiya Tenraku. In order to defeat you, I awakened the power of someone I despise the most.”
“You have the ability to take and use Sacred Gear powers infinitely, while I possess the ability to nullify all Sacred Gear powers. Even though the battle between the Two Heavenly Dragons has ended, our destinies are far from over…” Vali sighed, and Tenraku couldn’t help but nod.
“Yes, indeed. Perhaps this is truly our destiny.”
“Vali, I acknowledge that you have the qualifications to be my opponent once again!”
Upon hearing Tenraku’s words, Vali’s smile widened in the air, and he unleashed several magic formations once again.
“Well then, experience its power once more!”
Lài lài lài…
Thousands of Light Arrows flew toward Tenraku as Vali spoke. Cursing inwardly, Tenraku quickly activated the ability of his Inherent Barrier and erected a barrier. However, the previously sturdy barrier was incredibly fragile when it encountered the Light Arrows released by Vali. It was effortlessly shattered!
Qiāng Qiāng Qiāng Qiāng…
A Demonic Sword materialized in Tenraku’s hand, and he swiftly wielded it to defend against the Light Arrows. However, after only a few strikes, the Demonic Sword shattered!
Tenraku usually relied on his various powerful Artifacts – Sacred Gears and didn’t carry any other weapons with him, as they were completely unnecessary. However, his once invincible ability had now become his greatest weakness, leaving him without even a single weapon to face Vali’s attacks!
With no way to avoid it and lacking weapons or magic, Tenraku sighed inwardly and prepared to withstand the onslaught of arrows. However, it was at that moment…
“Tenraku!!!”
A figure rushed forward and stood in front of Tenraku—it was Akeno!
Hōng Hōng Hōnghōng hōng!!!!!
“Ah…!”
All the attacks landed on Akeno, and she screamed in agony, flying through the air before crashing into Tenraku.
“Akeno!”
“Akeno-senpai!”
Although they also suffered some damage, Rias and the other girls, who had activated defensive magic, weren’t severely injured. Witnessing Akeno bravely blocking the attacks for Tenraku, the girls’ expressions turned pale, and they hurried over.
“Ten… Tenraku, are you alright?”
Her entire back had become a blur, and Akeno, with a pale face, lay in Tenraku’s embrace, but she smiled foolishly.
Good, she finally protected Tenraku too…
He felt his heart constrict, and an indescribable sensation instantly spread throughout Tenraku’s entire body.
How long had it been since he last experienced this feeling of heartache, regret, and the inability to protect the person he cherished the most!
“Ugh… It’s a severe injury…”
Upon seeing Akeno’s severe injuries, Asia couldn’t help but cover her mouth and quickly activated her own Sacred Gear’s power to heal Akeno.
“Rias, I’ll leave Akeno to you.”
Tenraku handed Akeno over to Rias and the other girls with a blank expression on his face and then he walked out step by step.
“Tenraku…”
Although Tenraku didn’t say much, Rias and the other girls could keenly sense it— Tenraku’s raging anger!
Under the gaze of the girls, Tenraku walked to the front and looked up at Vali in the air, his eyes filled with cold and icy intent.
“Vali!!!”
A red and white battle armor emitted a soaring aura emerged from Tenraku and that aura continuously rose higher and higher. At the same time, the jade jewel on his armor flickered madly.
“Boost! Boost! Boost! Boost! Boost!”
“Divide! Divide! Divide! Divide! Divide!”
With a step, the earth cracked, and Tenraku’s figure turned into a swift afterimage as he charged toward Vali in the air.
“Kamiya Tenraku!” With a raised corner of his mouth and a fierce fighting spirit, Vali also shouted and shot down toward Tenraku.
Boom!
“Ahhhhhhh…”
The two collided, instantly creating a dazzling sun in the sky. Violent air currents spread in all directions, and the entire barrier space cracked like glass, filled with countless fractures.
After a long time, everything gradually calmed down. Tenraku fell back to the ground, his armor dissipated, and he panted with a pale look on his face.
Vali still floated in the air but appeared extremely miserable, he was covered in blood, and his arm that collided with Tenraku’s was hanging weakly to his side.
Although he awakened the ability to nullify the effects of Sacred Gears, it also had its limits. Once it surpassed the limits, he would still be harmed by the power of the Sacred Gears!
With a cold smirk on his face, Tenraku prepared to attack again, but Vali suddenly spoke: “This will be the end for now, Kamiya Tenraku,”
“What’s the matter? Can’t handle it after just getting started, Vali!” Tenraku retorted sarcastically, slightly taken aback.
“The incident of injuring your woman was my mistake, but today I merely came to greet you and let you know that our battle is far from over,” Vali explained.
“Kamiya Tenraku, I will become stronger and stronger, and you should also grow stronger. There will come a day when our final showdown will happen again.”
Vali deeply looked at Tenraku, then opened a transmission formation and flew into it.
Meanwhile, Arthur Pendragon Longsword sheathed his sword and nodded to Tenraku and the girls below before following suit and entering the formation.
“Kuroka, would you like to come back with us?” Bikou, carrying a gold-banded stick, asked Kuroka, who was still protecting Koneko below.
“I’m not going back to that boring place with you. I want to live with my Shirone from now on,” Kuroka replied without hesitation, tightly embracing Koneko.
“Well, that’s truly a pity. I wish you and your sisters happiness, ohhhhhh…”
