I Thought of a Myth... / Rias: Then Would You Like To...
At the same time he appeared, Raisel also spotted him.
His figure, engulfed in flames, with its clenched teeth and murderous gaze, seemed to be glaring at someone who had stolen his wife.
But that's indeed the case!
Hearing these words from afar, Arthur continued walking, but his eyes narrowed slightly again.
Riesel's words clearly indicate that she knew the participants in this "Rating Game" would change.
In other words, he was indeed set up!
Thinking of this, Arthur's displeasure swelled up.
Even though he knew that Sirzechs did this because he loved his sister dearly and was also testing his identity.
But the feeling of being tricked still made Arthur instinctively disgusted.
Just like Arthur's experiences since time travel!
He is someone who really dislikes shady and secretive things.
Therefore, he had never thought about becoming a seafarer or a fisherman in the sea.
In the world of God Slayer, allegiance to any faction is not accepted!
If you want to know about him, you only need to ask a question, Arthur will still explain based on the person asking the question and the current situation, thus fulfilling that person's request.
But Arthur deeply disliked this self-serving approach of gradually pushing people into his own trap.
Arthur wasn't incapable of underhanded tactics; the "Four Emperors Plan" created by the Y world profoundly proved that if a transmigrator got into underhanded dealings, there would be no such thing as underhanded trickery.
He simply doesn't like it!
Since that's the case, let's satisfy your curiosity.
Thinking this, Arthur stopped less than a hundred meters away from Riesel Phoenix, under the watchful eyes of him, his family, and those watching from the outside.
Arthur reached out and grabbed at the air beside him, and a familiar golden light appeared out of thin air, condensing into a strange sword in the shape of a three-section cylinder.
"No introduction needed, no further words required, no anger needed, no roaring needed... You only need to deeply feel the vast difference between you and me... That's all!"
Holding the "Ea" Ea in his hand, Arthur looked calmly at Riser, who was about to become the target of his displeasure, and said arrogantly in a rare cold tone, "You have every right to be proud to have witnessed the glory of 'Ea'!"
Wake up, Ea! The stage for you has been set up!
"Heaven and earth are separated, the star of creation -- Enuma-elish!"
Chapter 408 I thought of a myth...
"Heaven and earth parted, the star of creation—Enuma-elish!"
Arthur raised the "Ea" Ea in his hand and shouted the true names of the Seven Tablets of Creation.
An extremely terrifying Mana power suddenly erupted from his body, like a storm, making it impossible for Riser Phoenix and his retinue to open their eyes.
This surge of Mana directly overwhelmed Riser Phoenix's anger and murderous intent, replaced by an overwhelming sense of horror.
The confident-looking retinues that had surrounded him all turned pale.
This Mana is beyond what High-Class Devil can describe!
They were certainly not worthy of Arthur expending such a vast amount of Mana.
From beginning to end, Arthur never took them or Riesel Phoenix seriously. He and his retinue were merely unfortunate victims of Arthur's venting of his displeasure.
No, it shouldn't even be called a sacrifice.
Because Arthur's target wasn't them, but this entire space!
'Rip rip rip--!'
Three cylindrical blades spun, converting Mana into a fierce wind that cleaved the world, carrying a scarlet light, and erupted from Arthur's center.
The sound, like the screeching of tearing paper, rang out continuously.
Wherever the fierce wind passed, the space resembled a mirror-like lake where pebbles had been dropped, creating ripples in concentric circles.
Before long, these spaces were like torn pieces of paper, with cracks of varying thickness and size spreading out.
Heaven and earth wept, and the earth trembled.
The sky, shimmering with multicolored lights, showed numerous fault lines.
The space was riddled with cracks, and endless storms surged forth.
The whole world is like a cracked plate, facing the prospect of falling apart.
The buildings, plants, and trees of the Kuoh Academy were all reduced to dust at a visible speed by the fierce winds that could cause rifts in time and space.
"One 'soldier' from Lord Raiser's side -- exits the field!"
"Two 'bishops' from Lord Riesel's side -- exit!"
"Lord... R... Sael..."
A fierce wind carrying a scarlet light enveloped Riser and his retinue. In this wind that could distort and cleave the world, his retinue, except for his sister who was merely there to make up the numbers, collectively transformed into starlight and departed.
Even Riesel Phoenix and his sister Pell Phoenix were reduced to flames that lasted only a few seconds before they completely vanished as the fractures spread outwards.
Phoenix?
Compared to 'Ea', she doesn't even qualify to be a supporting character.
As Arthur said, being able to witness the brilliance of 'Ea' in another dimension was already the greatest honor of his life.
Arthur drew "Ea" partly because he was upset about being tricked, but also partly because the alternate dimension barely qualified as the stage for "Ea".
But it's just a stage; there are no main characters, not even supporting characters, only cannon fodder like extras.
And Riesle Phoenix was the cannon fodder.
His retinue wasn't even worthy of being cannon fodder; they could barely be compared to the flowers and plants that turned to ashes.
'Snap--'
As the fault lines spread throughout the entire alternate dimension, a crisp cracking sound suddenly rang in the ears of all the spectators.
Arthur slowly lowered the "Ea" Ea in his hand. The world around him was now distorted and completely collapsed.
"Click--"
Like tape reaching its end, those who were watching the battle through props and technology could no longer see the scenes from the other dimension.
The thing that sustained the existence of the alternate dimension also died completely.
"..."
A silent expression appeared on the faces of all the spectators.
Others were unaware, but the head and members of the Occult Research Club, as well as Sirzechs and Grayfia, the two transcendent and Demon King- level powerhouses, remained silent.
Compared to the pensive Sirzechs, Grayfia's eyes showed shock and fear.
Yes, fear!
Under the radiance of 'Ea', she seemed to see a world collapse.
What a magnificent sight it would be if a world came to an end!
That was the real apocalypse!
"Hiss... Is that Arthur's Sacred Gear?"
Even Grayfia is like this, not to mention Rias and the other girls, and Kiba Yuuto.
The shocking scene from just now was still replaying in Rias's mind. Rias couldn't help but click her tongue and look at Koneko Toujou and Akeno Himejima, asking in a trembling voice.
"Ah... what an incredible man!" Akeno Himejima said, her red lips slightly parted, her face filled with amazement.
But more than the shock, there was a strange glint in Akeno Himejima's eyes.
My heart was deeply captivated by Arthur's unparalleled heroism.
Arthur's strength repeatedly exceeded her expectations.
Just when Akeno Himejima thought that the weather system Arthur created for Japan was already incredibly powerful and filled people with despair.
But unexpectedly, Arthur's Sacred Gear was not the ability to create weather, but a sword.
This strange sword, however, was not the legendary "Holy Sword Excalibur".
Although Akeno Himejima had never seen the legendary "Holy Sword Excalibur," even the legendary King's Sword couldn't compare to its world-destroying power.
"¨Senior..."
Unlike Rias and Akeno Himejima, Koneko Toujou felt more of a sense of honor than shock.
It seemed that the more powerful her master was, the more proud she felt.
With a slight twitch of its nostrils, the Koneko Toujou suddenly ran out of the room in the Occult Research Club.
"By the way, Arthur..."
Seeing what Koneko Toujou was doing, Rias and Akeno Himejima realized what was happening and quickly followed behind. (Damn it!)
The so-called alternate dimension can be considered an inner dimension.
They are replicas created by the demons, and moving around in the alternate dimension is equivalent to moving in the real world.
Now that the alternate dimension no longer exists, Arthur's location will reappear in the same place as before.
"Grayfia, do you know what the phrase 'The sky is high, yet has no name; the earth is low, yet has no name' describes?" Sirzechs ignored Rias and the others' departure and, when only he and Grayfia remained in the room, suddenly chuckled and asked.
"Before creation!" Grayfia answered calmly, "Without a doubt, it was a Longinus that existed outside the thirteen types of 'Longinus Gear'!"
"I've thought of a myth... but it's from the very beginning of time, it probably can't exist, right?" Sirzechs shook his head, slowly stood up, and said with a smile, "Anyway, it seems Rias has found a good husband."
Chapter 409 Rias: Then do you want to...?
When Rias, Akeno Himejima, and the others arrived at the playground, Koneko Toujou was already nestled in Arthur's arms, her affectionate expression something that would have made Rias incredibly jealous in the past.
But now, Rias looked at Arthur with a completely different gaze, as if she were seeing him for the first time. She clicked her tongue in amazement and exclaimed, "I thought your ability to create another dimension and that other power was already incredibly strong. I never imagined you were hiding so much!"
"What kind of Sacred Gear is that weapon?"
If it were Rias from a few days ago, she definitely wouldn't have asked such a tactless question.
The fact that she took the initiative to ask means that Arthur holds a very high position in Rias's heart.
Arthur's two kisses, coupled with his previous sense of responsibility and his performance in the alternate dimension, made her heart tremble slightly, and she experienced a sense of security.
It's only natural that his favorability rating skyrockets!
"Guess!" Arthur said with a teasing smile, holding the Koneko Toujou and looking at Rias.
Rias rolled her eyes. "I can't guess."
"You'll find out later." Arthur smiled slightly, offering no further explanation.
167 "That same line again, are you a mystic?" Lias was speechless and didn't ask any more questions.
Little did she know that if she continued to press him and showed an attitude of wanting to know, Arthur would still tell her.
Arthur would be satisfied with explaining anything that required an explanation, unless he truly didn't want to answer.
For example, if Sirzechs hadn't been so eager to help Arthur and had instead chosen to have a straightforward conversation with Arthur would have revealed his true identity to him.
After all, mythology and dimensional gaps exist, so King Arthur from another world isn't exactly unacceptable.
Instead of chatting with Rias and the other girls on the playground, Arthur returned to the Occult Research Club.
However, at this time, neither Sirzechs nor Grayfia were present in the Occult Research Club.
Having already vented his frustrations in the alternate dimension and given the onlookers a glimpse of his strength, Arthur didn't care about Sirzechs's departure.
Having successfully resolved Rias's marriage issue, Arthur didn't stay long in the Occult Research Club before leaving Kuoh Academy with Koneko Toujou in his arms.
Akeno Himejima and Aisa followed behind, leaving Rias behind alone.
