Highschool AxL: Holy lion

Daniele pov

When the guy who ran away was finally gone, I looked back at the girl lying on Regulus' mane, looking like she was about to fall asleep. 

"Are you okay?" I said to Shigune, but she looked passed out in Regulus' mane and didn't seem to care about any calls I made to her. 

"Kıkıkıkı"

What made it worse was that the little masked thing in her arms made a giggling sound at me. 

I felt like a vein pop in my head 

"Wake up now! "I said as I grabbed both of her cheeks with my hands and started pulling. 

"ooowwww ow ow, w-wait I'm awake, wait stooop!" 

Currently Shigune was holding her own flushed cheeks and looking directly at me. 

"You are rude, how can a cute boy like you be so rude?"

"Thank you for the praise " I said it without any shame 

[*giggle* I don't really see this shameless side of you, partner. ]

"the lions have spoken!!!!!" 

"What are you talking about Regulus, I've always been a gentleman." 

We both ignored Shigune's speech 

Even if they hear you speak in ax form,Slash dogs were still looking at the talking lion with surprise 

"wait koga, that's right koga is fighting there in the village please help !"

As if suddenly remembering something, Shigune jumped up and started begging for help. 

Her expression seemed serious and helpless as she pointed somewhere ahead. 

*CLAP* 

I clapped my hands to bring her to her senses right in front of her eyes. 

She stumbled a little in surprise and blinked a few times, but eventually she seemed to calm down. 

"be calm first" When I saw that the girl seemed to calm down, I continued. 

"Now tell us slowly what happened"

David and Barakiel approached from behind and approached as if they wanted to hear the story. 

"Koga and I were captured by the enemy and with the power we had, Then they wanted to experiment with us about the powers we have , Looks like they were trying to get "poh" out of me "

"poh??? What is that " When Natsume asked curiously, Shigune handed them the taotie in her arms and said "this is poh" 

Just as natsume was about to ask why she would give it such a name, the masked creature made a "poh" sound. 

"it says poh so its name is poh" 

What is this Pokemon? I seriously wanted to deny it here but I kept my mouth shut 

"What happened next?" Barakiel in the background was demanding to learn more about the context, but the harsh tone in his voice was not visible, heh, hard on the outside, soft on the inside, geezer. 

"Then Koga made a deal with the nice-looking man to undertake the experiments alone." 

As soon as they said this, both Barakiel and David  frowned

"So Koga is collaborating with Utsusemi?" Natsume couldn't help asking 

"No it wasn't utsusemi, they called themselves chaos. "Those who choose to bring chaos when they have the option" 

My Slash Dog information is very little and quite blurry compared to dxd information. 

I seem to remember satanael having something to do with the khaos brigade but that's it 

While I was lost in my own thoughts, Shigune continued talking. 

"They did something specific to Koga, combined with that living wig, he turned into a strange monster." 

'Strange monster '  When we heard this word, doubt appeared in everyone's mind, including me, and we finally decided to move towards the village. 

"We have confirmed that there are enemies in the area, so it would be safer to proceed on foot rather than by car." 

Following Barakiel's words, we decided to go walking with David joining us. 

I didn't want to send Regulus back since I had already taken him out and he walked next to us 

*grooowwwl*  When we heard a loud sound, we all stopped for a moment. When we finally turned to where the sound came from, we saw Shigune with a blushing expression, gently lifting Poh to cover her face. 

Shigune is apparently a glutton .If shigune was a glutton, poh was like a bottomless pit 

He completely ate the food that "Team Slash dog" brought for their independent avatars 

And these were various things like cat food, fish, birdseed, dog food etc. but he ate them all without caring. 

Shigune didn't stop there, she consumed the emergency supplies everyone brought with them.Even Mr David's 

When she saw that we were all looking at him in surprise, her face turned redder from ear to ear. No wonder she wasn't the idol of the school, she was seriously cute like this. 

"As expected from the fiend of gluttony, It seems like his gluttony is causing you to be in this situation too. "  Everyone nodded to Mr David's words. 

But Shigune quickly denied, "Actually, all the members of my family are like this, so even before Poh, I eat a little too much." Artoria, we found your family in this world!!!

---------------------------------------

When we finally reached the village, it was quiet, too quiet. 

third person pov

While everyone was looking around, Barakiel turned to Vali. 

"vali, check around, something is not normal. " 

Vali shrugged and left at a with a sudden acceleration 

after a while vali is back 

"There are people in the houses, but they are all sleeping, or rather, they are all forced to sleep."

"That's why they didn't answer when I cried out for help." 

"Maybe they're not that bad " The moment Natsume mumbled this, David immediately interrupted her. 

"Don't get the wrong idea little girl , "They kept these people asleep just to keep them from interfering with their business, and eventually the whole village might be wiped out to get rid of the witnesses." 

"W-what, it can't be that much, right?" Natsume turned to Barakiel as if hoping for approval. 

"No, the exorcist is right, you should not show carelessness or hesitation when you are this close to the enemy, Natsume Minegawa, otherwise the enemy may try to use this to own advantage." 

Barakiel said this to Natsume, but it was easy to detect a little  softness in his voice, perhaps this big man already saw these children as people he cared about. 

Suddenly, an extremely intense energy rose from afar. 

At this moment its sent slight shivers to everyone except David and Barakiel. 

This energy was strong, very very strong 

"Satanael . So he came in person,  Interesting "Vali said with a smile. 

Barakiel's expression became a little confused when he heard the name of his familiar comrade Cadre. 

David immediately squinted his eyes and reached for the galatine he kept in his exorcist outfit 

"I'm going there, Shigune Nanadaru, direct the others to where Koga is.Vali, daniel and Lavinia, there should be no trouble while you're here And try not to use the taotie it could ruin this whole area if it gets out of control" 

"Daniele, not Daniel" Daniele immediately countered. 

"*cough* whatever "

"I'm coming too" "wait until  you uses your armor" 

Vali couldn't help but pout

"Daniele, I'm going too, agreeing with Fallen disgusts me, so be careful with Taotie." 

Barakiel's eyebrows twitched, but they both turned towards the direction of the energy and quickly separated. 

Daniele and the others continued on their way 

The place they went kept getting scarier and darker. 

Then a humming sound was heard coming from the village. 

"kyaaaa" 

Similar shrill screams 

Slash Dog members immediately prepared themselves, Vali, Lavinia and Daniele were very calm. 

When they finally looked at what was making the sound, it was a raccoon.

Natsume and Sae clung to both of Tobio's arms out of fear, and Shigune hid behind Daniele. 

Daniele can't help but find this situation strange. 

 Natsume and Sae's face turned red and Shigune was still standing behind Daniele as if he were the shield that would protect her. 

Finally a voice was heard 

*Gooooooon!*

The people around were surprised, especially Daniele, Vali and other Sacred Gear users felt a heartbeat inside them. 

Because, accompanied by this roar, an aura that created a strange feeling inside them was felt. 

[This --]

"Do you know what this is, Regulus? "

{Did you feel it too, regulus} This time the voice came from the plush on vali's shoulder. 

"wait plush!!" Tobio exclaimed as he looked at the plush, after all they only used the plush to communicate with Azazel and now a different voice was coming. But it's a voice they've heard before 

{Let me greet you , I'm heavenly dragon  Albion, I am also known as the white dragon emperor , Thank you for take care in the Vali }

Team Slash dog members were stunned by this situation. But ,Vali, Lavinia and Daniele were calm or did not care much 

[you finally showed your head huh, white gecko]

{hooh~, why don't you go chase the wool ball, kitten}

[Huh!!]/{huh} Regulus looked directly at the plushie, and the plush head turned towards Regulus, creating the illusion of lightning between them. 

"Let's not stray from the topic, what was it that we just felt?" Daniele intervened before the two could continue their fight. 

[*cough* Anyway, let's stop messing around with this lizard and get back on topic.The feeling just now was similar to a power that every sacred gear user has when they reach a certain level]

Speaking from the mouth of plush , Albion continued to take over Regulus' words. 

{ I agree, forget about this stupid cat, let's move on,this power is also known as the forbidden technique *balance breaker* }

After hearing this statement, Tobio stiffened slightly and Sae next to him noticed Tobio's situation and held his hand and shook it. 

But one particular word caught Daniele's attention 

"Maybe you said "similar", is it different from the normal effect?" 

[Hmph, as expected from my partner, did you see it, lizard]

Albion's grunting sound came from the plush's mouth 

[As you said, this is common, although the feeling is similar, it is also strange, as if something specific is missing]

"It would be best to go and see it directly" Vali suggested, but there was also a slight expression of excitement on his face. 

Daniele rolled his eyes but didn't deny it and they all headed towards the sound. 

It was completely dark around, but Lavinia wasted no time in casting a light spell, and the sight was terrifying, to say the least. 

There were corpses in suits everywhere, but Natsume and Sae looked like they were trying hard not to vomit or squeal, and Tobio and Kouki had stern expressions.

But the others remained with the person standing there ahead of the corpses, he had black hair with gold stripes and at his feet was a shaggy dog-like creature. 

This HúnDùn was the last of the four fiend

Daniele pov

Right now, I was looking at the back in front of me, or rather, the glove on his arm. 

Could he be like Mitsuya.

Something to artificially create a balance breaker 

Koga turned to us

"Shigune-chan you are back, Hmm let's see, Kou-can, ikuse, minagawa, toujou and three strangers, four fiend became 7 fiend? Oh and yeah that's my partner blitz" 

"No we don't own the four fiends, they are ryoukou students other than sae toujou" I responded when I heard your words. 

"ohhhh I see, so what is that lion? Is it your sacred gear?" 

[I'm regulus, you brat]

"he spoke!! can you do it too blitz" 

Koga seemed upset when he answered his question negatively. 

"That's sad. *shrug* Anyway, shall we respond to our guests?" 

"That's fine with me, I wonder how long they will hide" 

I said as I took out the Excalibur blessing from the magic circle that appeared next to me and the other independent avatars took a fighting stance. 

At that moment, many magician-robed people appeared around us. 

Walking in front of them was an old woman wearing a medieval costume with a purple robe .

Me and David's mission target is Augusta of the Purple Flame 

"Since I had heard that there was a hard fight against those guy from the 'Utsusemi Agency', if I were to come here with my disciples——I would find that the dog from before and Glenda's disciple would also be here."

Cold air was gushing from Lavinia, her beautiful eyes looked at Augusta with pure hatred. 

"Such eyes do not look like you, Glenda's disciple" 

"It's all because of you" 

"Hmph, one of the Longinus, ıncinerate Anthem. So the user is the Witch of the East from Oz."

Looking in the direction of the voice, Tobio and the others could only just make it out.

On a tall tree, standing on a branch overlooking them, was the figure of a silver haired boy——Vali. As for just when he had climbed up the tree, Tobio and the others hadn't noticed.Of course me and regulus noticed but we wondered the purpose 

I was wondering what are you doing  but all  just to pose, damn chuunibyou? 

The wings of light that were his Sacred Gear had appeared on his back.

"I am Vali Lucifer. The being that carries the White Vanishing Dragon with him. As those possessing similar Longinus, I wish to compete with you by all means."

Natsume spoke to Vali who was up in the tree.

"Va-Vali! I-It's dangerous so get down from there! Don't go making provocations from such a place, you can do it just fine down here!"

Disregarding Natsume's statement, Vali and Augusta glared at each other.

The old witch laughed with a "Kah kah kah."

"Oho, so a small boy like you is this era's White Dragon Emperor. Moreover, as rumored, it's the successor to 'Lucifer'. This is quite interesting."

"Well, perhaps you'll enjoy this as well."

As he spoke, Vali flapped his wings of light, descending until he reached the surface.

She then turned to face me and Regulus

"But even the lion king appeared in the same place , Seriously fascinating , a hybrid longinus of both independent  avatar and equipment type " 

[You're braver than I thought, old witch]

Regulus began to release a destructive golden aura from his body accompanied by an angry voice, cracks appearing in the ground beneath him. 

"First zenith tempest and now regulus nemea the church's chances regarding longinus seem to be getting better. I would love to catch you and investigate you." 

Suddenly, the cold air around seemed to increase exponentially. "I won't let you touch Dany." 

This woman is getting weird!!!!I think I'm in danger. 

"Who knows maybe, but don't forget the Incinerate Anthem, after all, when I take it away from you, it will belong to the church too." I pretended I didn't hear the two of them talking and continued. 

"Hey first come first serve"

"I'm the one who came first, you fool." 

"The one who calls someone else a fool is the real fool" 

"Are you a child!!!" 

Me and vali were fighting, bumping our foreheads together 

"You two seem to be missing the context. I'm the enemy here." 

"Shut up you damn old woman / Babaa"

At the words of me and vali, Augusta seemed to step back in surprise for a moment. 

"You two are seriously having fun , I will enjoy playing with you later"

"I don't quite understand, but isn't that grandmother our enemy ?"

"Exactly " Augusta replied calmly and slowly raised her wand. 

"Then I understand .Okay, blitz once more Balance breaker- Si-Xiong  HúnDùn Over Booster" 

--------------------------------------

Third person pov

A few sounds came from the glove before Blitz flew towards the glove and merged with it 

And momentarily a black light flashed .When the light faded, standing in front of everyone was Koga, dressed in black armor with a dog-like theme. 

He had a purple jewel on his chest and long jet black hairs on the back of his head. 

"so satanael succeeded in the experiment but it still seems a little incomplete" 

Augusta spoke with interest 

"Even though I want to stay and play with you here, Glenda's disciple, you are here for knowledge, aren't you? Beat me and the knowledge is yours, Follow me now!"

Augusta said as she flew away 

"Go, your priority should be your master right now."

Daniele saw Lavinia's hesitation and told her 

"But----" 

"I'm not that weak and your friends aren't that weak to lose to these cannon fodder so yeah go!"

"Thanks Dany" she finally gave up her stubbornness and left 

[and you call me soft]. Shut up stupid cat 

After the two left, the magicians around started attacking. 

Koga was using a thin whip from the black hair lying on his back to break the magic circles created by his opponents. 

With these whips, he either stunned the magicians or severed their limbs. 

Tobio and the others were also fighting in their own way 

Daniele looked at the opponent in front of him 

She was a young girl wearing a gothic lolita outfit 

Walpurga 

A battle hungry smile appeared on her face 

A magic circle opened and a giant fire ball shot towards Daniele. 

Without delay, Daniele responded to the attack with his own magic. 

†wind hammer†

When Daniel stretched out his hand, a cluster of wind rushed out. 

When it collided with the fire, it suddenly turned into a fire tornado and the fire tornado, which got out of control, headed towards Walpurga. 

Walpurga frowned slightly and several more magic circles appeared around her. Flame spears shot out from within the magic circle and collided with the fire tornado

As the two canceled each other out with an explosion, a golden lion leaped out of the flames towards the walpurga. 

Even though Walpurga immediately created magic circles to defend herself, the lion's fierce attack shattered them all. 

However, Walpurga was able to use the momentum and escape to the right. 

But before she  could relax, Daniele attacked her with Excalibur blessing in hand. 

Walpurga casts a defensive spell circle once again, and another fireball magic circle just below it. 

But at that moment Daniele disappeared and Regulus appeared in his place. 

Regulus, with his golden claws paying no attention to defensive spells or the attack below, attacked and shattered the defense with a claw blow, leaving a wound on Walpurga's shoulder. 

"aaahhhhh" Screaming in pain, Walpurga tried to run back, but Daniele appeared right behind her and made another cut on her back with his sword. 

"ahhhhhhhhhh damn, damn, damn" 

Walpurga let out another scream and suddenly many magic circles appeared on the ground around her. 

Daniele immediately took a step back and Regulus stepped in front of Daniele and protected his.

*Booom* Explosions of flame erupted from the many rings of flame on the ground, but none of them could penetrate Regulus' golden skin and harm Daniele. 

"It's not over, did you hear me? THIS IS NOT OVER, I WILL DEFINITELY TURN YOU TO ASHES" 

This was the last thing Walpurga said before a magic circle appeared under her and she teleported away. 

"Oi, exorcist boy, Tobio, you go after Lavinia, I have a bad feeling.Lucidra-sensei and I, along with Koga, will handle them. "

Tobio, who objected at first but eventually agreed to go, together with Daniele, who was already planning to go, ran at full speed towards the direction where Lavinia and Augusta were going. 

When they finally entered the forest, a fog suddenly surrounded them. 

 ----------------------------------

Meanwhile 

Barakiel and David, separated from Daniele and the others, came to the area where Satanael's aura was. 

The two eventually arrived at an ancient shinto shrine. 

But they both not entered, one of them a fallen angel and the other a man devoted to another god. 

When Barakiel saw this place, he couldn't help but remember his past. 

"choosing this place was not intentional" 

The man who appeared was a handsome man with brown hair and silver eyes. He was wearing Grigori's battle clothes. 

The man continued while brushing his hand upwards through his hair.

"The god that is worshipped here, it won't appear if someone from the village gets injured, so unless one enters that compound, it doesn't care what they do. When it comes to the gods of this country, it seems that, for many of them, regardless of which mythological system the other party originates from, they basically don't care so long as you don't pollute their territory.After all, not everyone was like our father. " 

"Of course not, our lord is the one who cares and watches over us the most." 

"Heh, I must admit I wasn't expecting an exorcist, especially one wielding Excalibur's sister sword. This must be our first meeting David Cerro, user of galatine " 

"Satanael, why did you turn your back on Grigori? 

Satanael spoke.

"I just desire the same Sacred Gear possibilities as the other researchers. However, Azazel had no intention of slackening his degree of oversight."

"So therefore you slipped away from the organization and joined hands with other powers? You offered the Grigori's research and the like to an agency related to the Five Principal Clans...did you not realize just how much chaos that would cause?"

Even though he showed a complicated expression satanael still asked 

"Are you the person who said that?" 

Barakiel could only remain silent 

As a result, problems arose between the Japanese gods and Grigori because of his past. 

David paid no attention to the conversation between the two and strengthened his grip on Galatine, releasing an intense aura from the holy sword. 

"Is the aura coming from behind, that thing your work? ? "

"hmm yes, azazel's research was really cool so I changed it a bit and almost got the result "

Well first of all Satanael snapped his fingers once.

Subsequently, a mist began to spring forth throughout the area.

Satanael spoke.

"It's a transference-type Sacred Gear."

David quickly tried to remember the information in the files he gave Barakiel and remembered the necessary information 

"Forest of Bewilderment".

By means of crafting its ability into a part of the forest, it was something capable of guiding those who were treading within it to whatever place the user wanted.

After a short while, he sensed the presence of several people from within the mist.

The ones who appeared from within the mist were——.

"...Barakiel-sensei?"/"Mr. David" 

It was the five person group consisting of Daniele Berti ,Ikuse Tobio, Minagawa Natsume, Toujou Sae, and Nanadaru Shigune——.

Satanael displayed a smile once he realized that they had been brought there.

"Now then, let's finish what I have to do."
