Kiba mutters.
Indra’s voice comes back to my mind. He did speak about Cao Cao.
[HAHAHA, that brat moved around without thinking about what he wanted to become, that’s why he failed. If he wanted to become strong as a human, then he shouldn’t have relied on Medusa’s eye. Since he spoke of being a hero while being half-assed that made him fail. As the result, that eye became fatal. Laughable, right? Laugh at him. At the end, he turned into a clown.]
Yeah, if he had continued to fight as a simple human, then the holy-spear would have lent its strength to his will.
So it ended for him because the “The will of the God from the Bible” determined that “Rather than the ambition of the host, the dream of the Sekiryuutei who is a Devil and a Dragon is better” huh.
[——The ones who will hunt monsters, are human heroes. So there’s nothing that the shitty brat who went beyond a human to become a snob can do.]
Regarding that, I agree. Having Indra say that is the end for him.
But, just like Ise, there was a young-side to Cao Cao. Wanting to become someone is the part of being young. And isn’t the one who put such ambition in that youth of wanting to become a hero you, aye Śakra-sama?
Śakra said this to me after that.
[Well, to me, the “Oppai Dragon” who is a Devil and is calling himself a hero is also quite a clown, you know? What’s the point of a Devil being a hero? Isn’t it the desire of the Devils to deceive humans and control them from the shadows? No matter how much he lives on by saying innocent things, the group of those young Devils on your side are also evil and vicious “Devils” that live on by using humans, you know? No matter how far he goes, he is still far off from being a real hero. ––It’s just child's play.]
……I won’t deny all of that.
But the Devils, ––the Underworld is changing as well. That’s why they were about to collapse if they continued to have the old structure of the world of Devils.
……But forcing him to become a hero, huh. Was I doing the same as well……?
Rias then asks.
“What is Śakra trying to do? The God of war who let Cao Cao loose, who taunted Hades indirectly, and who brought chaos to each faction. Azazel, did you ask about his true ambition?”
“Yeah, that guy wants to create people who can oppose the God of destruction, Shiva. He believes that wars will give birth to strong people.”
……Though I don’t know how much of that is the truth…… It seems like Indra would do anything in order to win against Shiva.
––Then a communication-type magic-circle comes to me. It appears automatically next to my ear. I then receive a call from the other side. This is just a call I receive at fixed times. I will communicate with them directly afterwards.
––––! ……I couldn't believe my own ears at the information I am getting.
“……Grendel……and Lucifugus……?”
……What, what is going on……? So something insane is going on in Japan again!
Grendel!? Shouldn't that guy have already been eliminated!? And the Khaos Brigade?
This matter goes around inside my head.
The Vampires that got possession of the Holy Grail, stray magicians,the Khaos Brigade that is reorganising itself, the members of the “Khaos Brigade” that are appearing at the places Vali is investigating, the survivor from Lucifugus, and the appearance of the legendary Dragon that was supposed to have been eliminated.
……Maybe they are all connected? The timings are too perfect. A situation which makes me think that it’s something that couldn’t be avoided.
If everything ties into one thing……then there isn’t anything more dangerous……!
And Euclid Lucifugus—.
I have browsed through a bit of data about him before.
The rebellion that happened between the Devils in the past, the internal conflict between the old government and the anti-government which has Sirzechs as their ace. Grayfia’s real brother's living or dead status became unknown during that time. That is Euclid Lucifugus. Officially, he’s said to be dead, and I have heard that Grayfia said that she doesn’t think her brother is alive.
