Kisuke ignored Ajax's words and sheathed Benihime back into his cane and pulled the yakuza knife, also known as a tanto dagger, out of his chest pocket.
'Governor of Elements, hmmm... Spiritual or Alchemical?'
[Alchemical, of course. I'm the one who gave those Spirits their abilities. But even then, it's just a very inferior copy of what I can do and in only one aspect each.] Tiamat immediately answered.
'Oho~ As expected of the creator of the [Land]. In other words, it'll be up to my freedom of expression on how to use your abilities?'
[If you can pull out a fraction of it, yes. But beware. I've been permanently tainted by Chaos' Corrosive and Corruption aspects due to me taking the majority of his attack in order for Null to eventually recover. Forget about creating anything. All I can do is destroy, even if you find out how to heal using my ability.]
Kisuke was curious about Null but he had a feeling that Tiamat wouldn't answer any of his queries about her thanks to them being connected on the deepest level of Soul. Still, he's glad that she would still let out a bit of information about their situation from time to time if she deemed it necessary.
He then tossed those thoughts on the back of his head and returned to thinking about Tiamat's hint, 'Although I gave her a choice, she still didn't hesitate to give an answer. Alchemical... I shouldn't have guessed it right with just those two choices but it should have been close to 'Alchemical'.'
"Descend, Tiamat." Kisuke softly muttered and the tanto dagger melted into black goo before it slowly and silently transformed into a green-tinted longsword with curved Dragon horns for the handguard. But unlike its soundless appearance, the aura it gave off was sinister, as if wanting everything in the immediate vicinity to return to dust, 'I didn't notice it for the first time, but you're one unfriendly lady.'
[Unfriendly is too tame of a description.] Benihime also commented. She also didn't notice the first time because Tiamat was closely entangled with Chaos. She thought it was just Chaos struggling with all his might.
Without changing her tone, Tiamat explained, [It's the reason why Chaos doesn't exist anymore. Think of it as your good luck.]
Meanwhile, the other two onlookers didn't have the same casual feel as those three.
'W-what is that weapon!?' Both Ajax and Stralit reacted strongly. Aside from the ominous aura, there's something else about the longsword that's screaming at their instincts. Something far more terrifying.
Soul Slayer (Zanpakuto), a weapon that was created for the sole purpose of cutting down and purifying Souls or anything with Spiritual Particles. As beings who take advantage of Spiritual Power, it's their natural enemy. Not that they knew of this fact for now.
Kisuke noticed that Ajax won't be attacking so he took his time to examine Tiamat, 'Although no techniques or usage methods came into my mind the moment I released her name, there's still something that went through. Alchemy... An archaic form of Chemistry, but since it involves mysticism, the former is more accurate.'
Kisuke's mind ran as he weighed the sword in his hand before swinging it to his side. Although it didn't reach the wall nor there was enough force to create a shockwave, it still made a dent in the wall where the blade is facing, '...It's not exactly Alchemy either... Matter Manipulation?'
Tiamat heard what he was thinking and said, [In that case, I can only manipulate one.]
As she said that, Kisuke couldn't help but shudder and said out loud, "...Prima Materia?"
[If you can use me to that extent, then you'll become the second coming of 'Tiamat and Null'.]
'Then after what Chaos did to them, they were incredibly weakened. If Tiamat retained her original strength when we fought her, we wouldn't have any chance of winning...' Even though Tiamat might have called it differently, she still understood the context behind Kisuke's [Prima Materia] and affirmed his question.
And the reason why Kisuke was shocked was that in all of the topics that he'd dived deep into to create the Hougyoku, he also extensively studied 'Prima Materia' for a few decades with minimal results. After all, it was the theorized origin of all Physical and Spiritual Particles and could be shaped into anything in existence. All Kisuke was able to do was prove that it exists.
'I don't see myself being able to manipulate something like that.' Kisuke thought to himself as he sighed, 'I'll just focus on what I can do.'
Finally, he paid attention to the hostile enemy, "Thank you for waiting~ Shall we start?"
There was no answer for a few seconds and the enemy didn't attack, "...Who are you?"
"John Smith. Though that doesn't really mean anything to you." Kisuke answered while observing his surroundings. Now that he was holding the released Tiamat, there seemed to be an added layer of perception within his senses that allowed him to see deeper into the 'elements', including the hiding young man in the distance, 'Can I reach him from here?'
Kisuke thought that his opponent would attack him, but contrary to his expectation, he suddenly started retreating.
After weighing his options, Ajax concluded that leaving with the information that a weapon that could be a nemesis against Spiritual Power is more important than dealing with Stralit now. He's not even sure if he could defeat 'John Smith' just from the initial clash in the first place. And now that a weapon like that had emerged, he didn't want to risk it.
Stralit was astonished to hear him introduce himself as John Smith but also noticed Ajax retreating presence, "Even with the risk of having an all-out war with my clan, he deemed it a higher priority to inform his comrade of your existence than taking and controlling me. If you don't want to reveal your existence to the world now, you have to stop him now."
Of course, their reaction to the Zanpakuto didn't escape Kisuke's notice so he wouldn't really want it to be revealed to the Etouldes this early, 'Though that Goddess in contact with Issei probably knows about it.'
Kisuke drove Tiamat into the wall and relied on his instincts to produce the effect he wanted. The blade wasn't buried, instead, it melded into the earth, disappearing into nowhere. But after a few seconds, it reappeared, in the middle of the young man's neck who was swimming through the earth like a fish in the ocean.
Soon, his Spiritual Power disappeared and his own burial was by his own ability.
