Gilgamesh in DxD

Chapter 291



Before the Witch could react a blow struck her belly sending her flying into the ground.

A huge crater formed on impact as the Witch hit the ground.

When she opened her eyes, Medea felt the deepest dread fill her being.

Above her were Achilles, Arturia, Arthur, Xenovia, Mordred and Karna standing above her with their respective weapons pointed at her neck.

Further away were Tiamat with his hand transformed into a dragon's claw and Fenrir in his adult form.

"What's up, you want to continue?" asked Achilles smiling.

"I surrender" said Medea muttering.

[A "Bishop" of Rin Astaroth-sama withdrew]

Seeing their enemy disappear in a blue light everyone sighed.

"To think that my disciple would come to my rescue, I feel thrilled" said Merlin cheerfully as Arturia sighed.

"Don't let it go to your head Merlin" replied the King of Knights sighing.

"Gee, you didn't have to interfere with Onii-sama" said Le Fay while pouting.

Arthur only smiled and ruffled his sister's hair as he smiled.

"So we should help both of them?" asked Mordred as he put Clarent on his shoulder.

"They can handle it" said Achilles as he looked towards Enkidu and Valerie's battle against their enemies.

A little further away from where the two were standing was the battle between Ingvild and Valerie.

Ingvild and Valerie were standing on opposite sides of the battlefield, each had a smile on her face.

"It seems that I am at a disadvantage after losing so many companions" said the descendant of Leviathan calmly.

"You can quit if you want" said Valerie smiling.

"Of course not, we should go all the way" said Ingvild smiling.

The purple haired woman extended her hand releasing a wave of purple demonic power against Valerie.

Undeterred, the Dhampir extended her hand while creating a magic circle and releasing a wave of pure power.

Both collided in the middle of the battlefield generating an immense wave of dust that covered the vision of the two combatants.

Ingvild quickly expanded her senses and widened her eyes when she had to look up and saw Valerie falling against her.

Extending her right hand a huge spear made entirely of blood materialized in her hand.

Valerie quickly advanced against Ingvild who managed to dodge the first attack.

However, even while dodging, Valerie quickly swung her spear at Ingvild who could not react when the blow struck her and sent her flying away.

Ingvild quickly repositioned herself and Valerie attacked again.

Holding her spear, Valerie hurled her blood spear at Ingvild.

If you wait the heiress of the Original Leviathan quickly launched a blast of demonic power exploding the spear.

"[Blood Manipulation] isn't it? I guess you'd expect it from a Dhampir" commented Ingvild as the cloud of dust disappeared.

As the dust disappeared something was revealed that made Ingvild's eyes widen.

Valerie had her two hands outstretched while a single sphere of blood floated in her palm.

"Convergence" announced Valerie as her power increased.

The [Blood Manipulation: Convergence] is a technique where blood is condensed to its maximum limit.

Flapping her hands, Valerie squeezed the blood that shot in the form of a blood arrow at Ingvild.

The blood condensed by Valerie when using [Convergence] was shot at a single point. The blood, now enhanced by Dhampir's magical power, could reach the speed of sound, a secret technique created by Gilgamesh who passed it on to Valerie.

Its name was...

"Piercing Blood" Valerie announced.

Seeing the blood arrow approaching her at an almost instantaneous speed, Ingvild summoned the power of her Sacred Gear and her bloodline.

An immense wall of water surged around Ingvild as it molded itself into the shape of an immense western dragon made of water and brought it forward against Valerie's blood.

The moment they both hit each other the blood pierced the dragon, but just as she was about to pass through it the blood crumbled.

Valerie only narrowed her eyes at this.

The [Blood Manipulation] temporarily stops blood clotting to increase the effectiveness of the techniques.

Because of this Valerie's blood crumbled faster when it came into contact with water.

Also, blood exposed to water suffers osmotic pressure and the red blood cells start to break down. The RBCs that are part of 45% of the blood become uncontrollable thus nullifying Convergence.

As the dragon approached her, Valerie snapped her fingers as a huge pillar of purple holy flames emerged incinerating the dragon completely.

Even from afar Ingvild could feel the abysmal amount of sacred energy present in the flames.

"[Incinerate Anthem] isn't it? It seems that you really do possess the sacred flames" Ingvild said aloud.

Valerie only smiled.

"Yes, no matter how strong you are, you will never be unharmed by taking a blow from my flames. For you are a demon," Valerie said, smiling.

"Just don't hit me" Ingvild said smiling.

Waves of water began to appear at Ingvild's side as they formed into dozens of spears and shot at Valerie.

Without waiting the Dhampir points her hands creating several spears of sacred fire and they advanced against Ingvild's.

Flames and water crashed into the middle of the battlefield as powerful shockwaves were sent in all directions.

After a minute of intense combat between the two opposing elements, both Valerie and Ingvild ceased their powers.

Valerie knew that victory would not be easy, Ingvild had the power compared to the Satan class, and Valerie didn't even know if she could defeat her in base form.

Even with the Sacred Flames by her side, Ingvild's power and mastery over her Sacred Gear was something truly out of the ordinary.

Seeing this, Valerie quickly decides to end this battle as quickly as possible.

Extending her hand, Valerie used her magic and summoned her Sacred Gear Artificial [Dragonar Extinct].

"Balance Breaker"

An intense aura emerged from the dagger that was pure draconic power with part of a divine power, a power that completely covered Valerie's body.

Valerie's body was engulfed by a shower of crimson energy that as it disappeared revealed her body.

Valerie was wearing draconic armor that was a perfect blend of red, blue and gold, a pair of biomechanical draconic wings protruding from her shoulder blades. She had numerous jewels that eclipsed in the colors gold, red, blue and green, embedded in her armor that glowed in those hues that gave a ghostly appearance and power.

Valerie's power had skyrocketed, previously in the Maou class now reaching the mid-level God class.

"Another Sacred Gear?" asked Ingvild dumbfounded and uncomprehending.

"Yes, an artificial Sacred Gear that Gil created for me" announced Valerie.

"But that's dramatic power" murmured Ingvild with a smile.

The woman's eyes glittered in a lavender hue for a moment before she widened in shock.

"C-how?" stammered Ingvild without understanding.

"Let me guess, you tried to use the power of your Sacred Gear to try to control mine due to the power of a dragon. But unfortunately my Sacred Gear doesn't have a dragon, only the powers of one, without a soul. So you can't control it" Valerie explained calmly.

"That being so..." said Ingvild extending her hands.

As she opened her arms an abysmal amount of water began to appear around the descendant of the Maou Leviathan, some of it was water from nearby rivers and lakes, some of it was water created from Ingvild's demonic powers and some of it was her increasing the humidity in the air.
