Highschool AxL: Holy lion

Right now, I am slowly sipping my tea in a room decorated in Japanese style in a luxury building .

Seiryuu and Suzaku bowed in front of me, Slash Dog team and Barakiel and apologized for involving them in the five families' issue.

"Now let's go over it again, will you and your assistant work with Oji-sama to research Augusta of the Purple Flame?" Suzaku Himejima asked looking directly at David

"that's right, that's what upper management told us to do .After all, the relic's place should be on the lord's side , Together with other longinus " As he said the last part, his eyes shifted slightly to Vali , Lavina and Tobio.

When she heard the words, sparks started dancing around Suzaku Himejima and Barakiel was also sending out light sparks.

Yes, that's not the case, old man. How about we attack their mothers directly to make us enemies? It would definitely be easier.

"*sigh* Anyway, our mission is just to investigate the existence of Incinerate Anthem, so far it has been confirmed that its owner is an evil witch, but I still prefer to check it with my own eyes."David continued to explain the situation

Finally, Lavinia Reni, who was silent in the corner, also spoke up. "What will you do after you find her?"

"For now it looks like the only possibility is a *witch hunt* but like I said, I'd rather see for myself."

"oji-sama ,What is Governor General Azazel's stance on this issue?

"Azazel also told me that we should work together in this situation, so what he said is true."

Now it was Suzaku's turn to sigh.

"So, what are your thoughts about this talk, "The Lion King"?" Seiryuu asked looking at me

"I'm an assistant here, so it doesn't really concern me, but I'm very interested in Toutetsu(taotie) and Incinerate Anthem users."

"hooohhh, so why?"

"I heard that Toutetsu can eat anything, and when I say everything, I mean anything, even concepts I want to test the accuracy of this, apart from that, Augusta is a powerful witch, I would also like to see the level of my own magic."

Suzaku finally turned to me "After this is over, will you go out for a training match with me?" For some reason, while her face was calm, I saw a sharp glint in her eyes.This woman definitely wants revenge!!!! Well why?

My gaze slowly turned towards Tobio and stayed on him. BECAUSE OF THIS GUY

Still

" I'm in "

Let's see how I can deal with the sacred beasts 

Then returning to the topic, Suzaku turned back to Barakiel and David.

"With our spies following Oz and the Utsusemi Agency, we recently managed to identify the other owners of the 4 fiends, Unfortunately, after a while, our communication with them was lost. "

Apparently, according to Suzaku's words, there is also a class full of SG from Grigori's SG Training Academy (also known as Nephilim) with especially harmful and lethal properties.

He said their name is Abyss Team and apparently they are students of Satanael who is a traitor to Grigori and is now in partnership with the Wizards of Oz.   

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

We are currently in the car, heading towards the location Suzaku gave us.

Vali sat in the front seat, leaving me to sit in the back with David.

And yes, sae toujou, Tobio's childhood friend, is here too.

Apparently when Tobio got out of control, he was assigned to keep him in balance, Hah where did I hear that, similar but completely opposite though I'm looking at you switch princess

[There's something about this girl that disgusts me. ]

[I don't know, the best way to describe it is that it disgusts me to death, like someone had a dog and confused me with my lineage]

[Thank you partner]

"This is the information about the skills and sacred gears that Team Abyss has"

Barakiel handed each of us a file from the front seat.

Looks like the slash dog team already looked at it before they arrived and we're looking at it now

 The information was .... interesting to say the least

"I did give the material a onceover, however, as far as their Sacred Gears go, do they not manipulate living creatures the way ours do?"

As Samejima had said

Barakiel replied.

"There is more than one type of sacred gear, you, tobio, lavinia, natsume are listed under the independent avatar category, Vali has a contract type sacred gear, meaning he draws power from a powerful being within him. "

Then he looked at me

"regulus nemea is a hybrid between both the independent avatar type and the contract type, and has characteristics of both types , except this with the varieties including 'State Alteration', 'Boundary Seal', 'Attribute', 'Defence', 'Counter', and 'Create' among others.Although sacred gears basically have one ability, there are exceptions to this, namely longinuses, which are 13 unique sacred gears. "

After saying this, the others looked at me with some surprise, but eventually we went back to examining the files.

Hmm, how should I say, in terms of each other, each of these is weaker than each of these here.But in the right situation and place they can be more dangerous than anyone else here, kind of interesting.

After a while of silence, Lavinia began to speak.

" I was born in an ordinary seaside town, my family was not a magician's household.My family were also ordinary people , But since I was born I've seen an ice doll appear next to me , Absolutely said.Even though I didn't understand it at first, I later started to be afraid of this ice doll that no one could see. When I was nine years old, I lost my family in a car accident. "

Her voice became a little hoarse as she said this, it must have been a difficult memory for her to even remember.

" Of course, I blamed the ice doll next to me for this accident. My relatives did not want to deal with me, who was fighting with something invisible, and almost no one took me with them, Later, while I was walking around the garden of the house, I came to a green world, full of trees everywhere, it was very beautiful. There I met Glenda"

She then went on to explain that Glenda taught her many things, such as how to use magic and absolute demise. But after a few years, Glenda left her with Grauzauber to experience the world.

When she finally returned home, only ashes remained in the place she called home.

Tobio and the others reacted sadly when they heard this. Even Mr. David stopped reading his Bible and looked at him with a slightly pitying look.

"Don't worry Lavinia we will help you " Natsume Minegawa declared, hugging Lavinia and the others joined her.

Vali was a bit of a tsundere of course

Finally, all eyes turned to us

"Our mission is to hunt the augusta, so we will not hesitate to help you." I looked at Mr. David and after he nodded, I spoke.

"Alright and you " vali sitting in front finally turned and asked me

"I told you , we would help? "

"No, what you're asking is how you awakened your own longinus, how you got involved in the supernatural world."

" "What is this curiosity all of a sudden?"

"You're the only person I know at my age who is close to my strength, of course I'm better, but I'm curious."

" Hoh~, that's better, do you want to test this again?

"heh I'm looking forward to it"

Both Vali and I looked at each other with grins.

I saw everyone around me looking at me with curious looks, even David and Barakiel were looking at me *sigh*

"I was born italy, I lived in an ordinary (what I thought) family and I had nothing to do with the supernatural.I was basically *weird* for my peers because I acted more older than others my age.This left me alone."

While everyone was listening carefully, I continued without noticing the increasing tolerance and compassion in Lavina's eyes.

"When I was bored because I was alone, I had a hobby of exploring and walking around the forest near the house, One day, while I was out wandering as usual, I came across the stray devil. "

Both Barakiel and David made a disgusted "tsk" sound, but I ignored it and continued.

"Even though I tried to run away from the stray, in the end, when I was about to die with a hole in my chest, Regulus reached me and with my last strength, I was able to tear off one of his arms,Just as I was about to die, I was saved at the last moment by an exorcist and the stray was easily killed by him. After explaining to me the nature of Regulus and the supernatural, he invited me to church and I accepted. "

[Time passed so quickly huh, ]

As soon as I finished my words, a pair of arms surrounded me and buried me in the mountains. It smells really nice ....

"Don't worry Dany, I will definitely protect you!!!"

What is happening Lavinia Reni, what is this compassion all of a sudden?

Also..... I CAN'T BREATHE

"AHEAD!"

With Sae Toujou's sudden shout, Barakiel suddenly braked and I, (who was still trying to escape), and Lavinia, (who was resisting not letting go), fell.

I took advantage of the gap after falling, I instantly jerked away and jumped out of the car.

Then others came out of the car. Apparently, Sae Toujou saw a human-shaped person ahead.

We all stood vigilant and waited

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

Third person pov

Suddenly a very beautiful girl appeared before they

She had dark blonde hair, some of it braided.

The most striking feature is heterochromia eyes, where the right eye is blue and the left eye is grey.

Although she is not as well-endowed as Natsume and Lavinia, she still has an impressive body.

She is now dirty and her clothes are torn in places.

But daniele's attention went straight to the creature she was holding in her arm

It was a strange creature with a mask

Taotie, the strongest of the four fiends

"...Help "

Shigune, who said this in a voice that seemed forced on him, examined his surroundings a little more and saw two familiar faces.

"minagawa-san , toujou-san!"

Shigune, who was happy to see someone she knew, finally relaxed and her body fell from the intensity.

Reflexively dashing forward, Daniele released his Regulus avatar just in time, allowing Shigune to fall into the giant lion's soft mane.

"So this taotie is apparently in his unawakened form, which is good, otherwise he could get out of control " David looked at Taotie and then at Shigune and said.

Daniele gently supported Shigune, whose body collapsed from fatigue.

" are you ok ?"

" There were people there using strange po—"

Suddenly, the insects and various sounds heard in the surrounding area stopped completely and a strange sound was heard.

Jin and other independent avatar types suddenly took an attack stance (except taotie)

Barakiel spread his wings and David prepared to take out Galatine at any moment.

Sounds like "ku, ku" started coming from the surroundings.

Vali and Lavinia had also examined the surroundings carefully

"Hmph, such obvious killing intent. Interesting."

"This presence, it is not a magical formula."

It was when all members had completed their battle preparations.

Suddenly, a 50 cm sized statue appeared in front of them. It had one closed eye, one leg and Small wings and one horn

When the statue was about to open its eyes, Regulus stepped in front of Shigune and Daniele and blocked their view.

"Everyone close your eyes!" Barakiel shouted to those around him

That's right, this is a sacred gear found in the files given by Barakiel that damages people's vision and even causes permanent blindness.

As soon as the light went out, David took immediate action and immediately split the statue in half with the galatine he produced.

A man wearing a Nephilim uniform and darkened glasses appeared and stared at his broken statue with surprise and some anger.

When he finally turned to tell them something, Barakiel took action and shot him with a lightning bolt.

Even though the man immediately ran away as if he was expecting an attack, he hit his arm and turned it black.

"aaggghhhhh" the man wailed in a painful voice and instantly ran into the darkness and disappeared.

*sigh *

Daniele sighed and looked at the forest, thinking, "This was definitely going to be a tedious journey, wasn't it?"
