The Infinite Dragon God Cannot Find Silence

Her original strategy was to stall the two of them... but the commotion Kokabile created made it fail.

Well, after all, it's not right to just let Kokabile destroy the city like this.

If she leaves now, she might be cut off from the internet when she goes back. If the city is destroyed, then needless to say, there will be no computers available at all.

...No, those are just secondary reasons, incidental.

Really.

In short, she had no choice but to take matters into her own hands.

Anyway, she's just a Kokabühler, and even if she's inexplicably strengthened now, she's confident she can overpower her opponent.

However, an unexpected intruder appeared.

So now we should consider whether going back to the internet would result in being cut off if we hinder this race?

No, that's not right... Regardless of her current identity and the secret relationship between the Skywing race and that Dragon God, she shouldn't be able to act recklessly. It has nothing to do with the reason just now.

But in the end, that relationship was only 'secret'.

"You two go and help those demons first. Now is not the time to dwell on old grudges."

Maintaining an outwardly dignified and pure demeanor, Gabriel spoke softly to the two girls below.

Then, a spear burning with golden flames materialized from her hand.

In short... let's just pretend to be serious and confront each other for now.

Chapter 379 The Mark of the Dragon God

"Although I don't know what happened..."

Rias glanced at the magic circle that was constantly emitting strong energy fluctuations not far away, then looked at Gabriel who was confronting the Skywing race and Yuuto who was fighting at an 'evenly matched' level, took a deep breath, and then turned her gaze to the two girls belonging to the church who were running towards her.

"The situation is urgent. Could you please help my demon deal with the Skywing race over there?"

The blue-haired girl at the head nodded in response.

“Indeed, now is not the time to dwell on past factional grudges. Let us take the one with the holy sword—after all, he is also our mission objective.”

"Thank you so much."

Rias let out a breath.

To be honest, even with those two girls included, it would only offer a little more psychological comfort.

The opponent is a Skywing race.

Even the weaker individuals among them were not something that two young girls from the church and an immature demon could handle.

It's important to understand that the Skywing race is neither afraid of the Holy Sword nor the Holy Light; in fact, it can be said to be a race whose weaknesses remain undiscovered to this day. Even if one wanted to devise a targeted strategy, it wouldn't be so simple.

Even Lord Gabriel, who was one of the highest-ranking angels, refrained from making a move.

Indeed, if those two were to actually fight, the city would likely be destroyed even without Kokabil.

That was not something they could handle; its difficulty was conservatively estimated to be no less than that of Kokabil.

However, they simply didn't have enough manpower to deal with that Skywing race, and the other side didn't seem to be taking it seriously.

Now we have no choice but to take a gamble and deal with the biggest threat, Kokabil, first, and then resolve the immediate crisis of the city's destruction.

"Issei, provide support!"

With a sharp, clear shout, Rias spread her black, bat-like wings and took to the air.

At the same time, several magic bullets carrying an aura of destruction were constructed in an instant and shot towards the fallen angel cadre high above.

"Honestly, it seems these puppets, who don't know what they're thinking, are really unreliable."

Even in the face of such a situation, Kokabil remained calm and smiling.

"I have no choice but to play along for a bit. If I torture you beyond recognition, even the most ruthless guy like Sazex will have to step in for the sake of the Demon King's family's reputation, right?"

The defiled light of the fallen angel flashed for the third time.

Rias gritted her teeth and quickly increased the altitude of her flight path.

The crimson Destruction Bullet was pierced in the blink of an eye, and the Spear of Light swept past Rias below and plunged into the ground.

boom!

"Wow!"

Hyoudou Issei, who was below, cried out in alarm as Toujou Koneko pulled him around to escape, avoiding the aftershocks of the attack.

However───

"It's ready, go, little cat!"

Upon hearing Hyoudou Issei's signal, Toujou Koneko nodded, then stomped heavily on the ground to stop. Before the momentum could dissipate, she used a force beyond her small frame to fling the boy whose arm she was holding upwards.

"Now!"

The boy, who flew out at rocket speed, precisely struck the girl flying in the sky.

[Transfer!]

As the gauntlet glowed green, Rias's magical power surged dramatically.

—In addition to doubling its power every ten seconds, the second ability of the Crimson Dragon Emperor's gauntlets is to transfer that doubled power to others.

And Rias Gremory, who obtained this power—

"A top-tier demon... even just one step away from Demon Lord level, interesting. It seems your talent is no less than your brother's, Rias Gremory!"

Despite making such comments, Kokkabühler maintained a relaxed smile.

"Then you shall take on this level one attack, which is close to that of a demon king!"

Rias narrowed her eyes, spread her arms, and a huge crimson magic circle appeared behind her.

The next second, a thick beam of light, more than two meters in diameter, burst out from Rias's chest and swept towards Kokabil.

—Kokabile's experience is far superior to her own, Rias knows this very well.

Therefore, you need to crush him with the enhanced power before he can react.

This attack was not something Kokabile could easily withstand. Both defense and evasion would create openings for him. Meanwhile, Toujou Koneko, who had also been strengthened by Hyoudou Issei, was already in position, ready to launch an attack at any moment.

It was thanks to Hyoudou Issei's unexpectedly rapid growth that things went so smoothly.

All we need to do next is continue to intensify our offensive...

Rias, who was thinking this way, forgot about it for a moment.

She forgot that her enemy was not just an ordinary fallen angel cadre, but an 'alien'.

With a ferocious grin, Kokabil stretched out his right hand to meet the destructive magic cannon.

At the same time, a strong sense of crisis surged into Rias's heart.

Almost instinctively, Rias abandoned control of the magic cannon and forcibly circulated the already difficult-to-control magic power under such circumstances, pushing her body heavily to the side.

boom!!!

Purple light bathed the sky.

Everyone, including Kiba Yuuto, whose expression had seemed to have gone mad after seeing the holy sword, all stared blankly at it.

The massive purple beam of light mercilessly reversed course, engulfing Rias's magic cannon before grazing past her and shooting straight towards the horizon.

The outer barrier couldn't even weaken the attack in the slightest; it shattered instantly, and Sona's familiars were also blasted away by the impact of the shattering barrier.

"Then... what exactly is it..."

Rias muttered to herself, her eyes blank.

"Oh dear, I thought I had completely mastered it, but it seems I overdid it a bit because it was my first time using it?"

With his palm outstretched, Kokabil gave a mocking smile.

But no one had time to notice his expression.

Because the one in his hand was too conspicuous.

It was something that looked like a magic circle.

The content it engraved was incomprehensible to Rias, Sona, and even Gabriel, let alone others.

But at least one thing is something that everyone can understand.

Especially Gabriel.

The logo that would appear whenever she opened the Uruk series of games was very familiar to her.

That's a symbol that means 'infinity,' and also...

"The mark of the Dragon God..."

At this moment, Hyoudou Issei still couldn't understand the meaning behind Rias's words.

"Oh dear, I forgot to hide this!"

Kokabil pressed his hand against half of his face, laughing maniacally.

"So, since it was an accident, you don't mind, right?"

Seeing the Skywing race so utterly unarmed, letting the three of them hack at him, Kokabil's smile grew even more ferocious.

"After all, I said I wouldn't let you guys hide away as pawns in peace. You'll have to participate in the upcoming war obediently. Isn't that the only way to prove that we fallen angels are the strongest?!"

A violent surge of magic pressed down on Kokabil.

"Well?!"

Rias fell to the ground, and Hyoudou Issei, Toujou Koneko, Kiba Yuuto, and the two church girls were all forced to kneel down on one knee.

Even Gabriel's expression turned slightly serious.

"This is bad, what should I do... It seems like the internet might really be cut off if we start fighting..."

Of course, no one heard the whispers that came from the mouth of this most beautiful woman in the heavens.

"Hahahaha, is that all? Where's Seraphim? Where's Sazex? If you don't come out soon, I'll slowly slice your family members into pieces!"
