Chereads / Rise from the Ashes (DXD Crossover) / Chapter 10 - Fight (Flashback)

Chapter 10 - Fight (Flashback)

My punch sent him back 10 meters before he stopped himself. On his face was a layer of ice which he immediately broke off.

I then spread my wings completely. They and their 30m wingspan were in full view for everyone to see. I then took off towards the outskirts where Ichigo fought Aizen in the show. Knowing Aizen would follow me I fly at my fastest landing there a few seconds later. No more than a second passed and Aizen was standing a bit in front of me.

"So, do you want to give up cause, in all honesty, I'm pretty lazy." Sure I can train my magic for days without sleep but actually training physically and or fighting I see more like a workout than anything else. I mean sure fighting did excite me at the beginning but it quickly got boring.

-

It has been 4 months since we began our planned year of training. We decided to go out and get some battle experience by taking down stray devils.

We teleport to the human world somewhere in the United Kingdom and begin our search. The reason why why we came here is because there have been many sighting of supernaturals in the area killing humans.

On of the taboos in doing anything in the human world of our moonlit world is leaving evidence that the humans can see. So we decided to come over and take care of the useless bunch that's willing to expose us.

We searched for about an hour before finding anything. When we got there it turned out to be a group of Vampires instead of Devils though that didn't really make a difference.

We walk into the warehouse attracting the attention of the bunch. Looking around I count a total of 37 vampires. Their strength ranges from Low-class to High-class with the weakest being Low-class level 3 and the strongest being High-class level 5.

The stronger ones would be a good challenge for Ravel and Issei though in front to me he isn't noteworthy.

After observing the vampires in the building I look at the room itself. There were humans in cages(Mostly women) and there was blood all over the floor with some limbs here and there and a big bone pile in the corner.

The sight doesn't phase me which I've been noticing lately. I seem to adjust to situations easily. The reasons unclear but I'm giving the credit to having integrated with my king piece.

Back to the sight in front of us, they begin attacking us without prior warning. Issei equips his gauntlet and Ravel waves her staff.

They jump into the mini swarm of low-level vampires while I stay behind and observe the Mid to High- class vampires who stayed back.

Not surprising in about 5 minutes all the low-class vampires were taken out. Though Issei had wounds all over his body and would have succumbed to his wounds if I hadn't cast golden fire on him.

Ravel, on the other hand, was relatively unharmed. Though she did have blood on her it wasn't hers so no problems there.

After Issei finished healing I removed my pressure on the 4 weaker Mid-class Vampires allowing them to move once more and told them it was their turn to fight.

I don't know if it was because they were brave, stupid or just scared of me but they did so without hesitation. At the end of this battle, Ravel had minor wounds on her with the exception of one big gash on her arm. Issei was badly wounded and was almost bitten by one of them. Though this was good for him since he apparently broke through to the next level during the final moments of this fight.

I heal them and remove my pressure on the remaining 5 Mid-class vampires.

Issei immediately casts boost on him placing him on a level where he can fight one of them and win though it would still be a challenge. Ravel forms 5 fireballs and lanches them each at a separate target. This is enough of a distract for Issei to get in a good punch on the vampire he's fighting.

He then turns and kicks at one that was trying to sneak attack him. Meanwhile, Ravel had formed a fire dorm around her as a defensive move. This prevented them from physically attacking her but they instead broke parts of the wall and began to throw them at her.

Back with Issei, he got another boost allowing him to fight one with an assured victory but he was fighting against 2 who were mostly at 100% and one that was fighting at less than half his strength after Issei's punch.

Not seeing an opening he lets the injured one hit him and takes this moment to grab his arm and uses him as a weapon. He slams him towards the other 2 with the body causing one to go fly back 3m while the other one just fell on her butt. He takes this chance and throws the body at the one further away to serve as a distraction while he runs and kicks the female vampire. This kick causes her to cough out blood.

He then uses another boost that signaled the end of his battle. He ran up to the one that flew further away earlier and punched him before he could react. This punch picked up the vampire but instead of letting him fly away he grabbed his leg and twirled around slamming his body into the female vampire. He then slams the vampire into the ground and punches down on his head shattering it. he proceeds to do the same with the other 2.

Ravel, on the other hand, was only fighting 2 but one of them was the strongest Mid-class among them. While launching fireballs to intercept all the projectile aimed at her she secretly begins forming a spell. Moments later the ground under the 2 vampires glows red with a magic circle appearing beneath them. Not giving them a moment of though a pillar of fire rises from the ground upwards. This toasts both of them though it only kills one of them. Ravel forms a spear made of condensed fire and pierces the remaining one through the skull.

I call them back and proceed to heal them. Once they were healed I go forward while releasing the remaining 2 form my pressure. Knowing there only way to stay alive is through somehow defeating me they charged at me.

I dodge a punch one of them launched my way while returning it sending him flying. I turn to face the other one only to see her opening a door. I know what's on the other side but I really couldn't care less.

Soon groaning is heard and more than 20 zombies appear. They charge at me as commanded by their master who is also charging at me from behind the horde. I simply condence normal fire in my hand and launch it at her horizontally. It cuts all of them in half including her. Burnt flesh is soon smelled throughout the building.

They soon ignite into blue flames with ashes being the only proof that they once existed in this world.

The guy sees that I killed who I assume to be his partner from his reaction and charges at me in a blind rage. I simply sidestep him and form a spear out of condensed fire and stab him in the back. he screams in pain which I find annoying so from in him, I begin to cut upwards in on swift movement cutting him in half from the center of his stomach to his head.

Watching it turn to ashes I realize that I'm not feeling anything at killing someone. Placing the matter at the back of my head I go back towards Ravel and Issei and tell them we have to leave as I sense someone at EX-class heading towards us.

We teleport back home where we go get cleaned up then go back to training. We go out hunting about once a week though I head out to the UK on my own from time to time to hunt. I go alone knowing a being in the same realm as the dragon gods exist there.

Back at the wasteland in present time I and Issei are in the air fighting. He has his Zanpakuto while I have a katana in each hand condensed from black fire. our fight razes the place to the ground. It looks pretty even but I know he's stronger than me.

This is proven when he slashes much harder than before causing me to crash down into the ground creating a crater 200m wide and 15m deep. I get up and fly back at him where we continue slashing at each other.

We've been fighting for 10 minutes and I'm covered in wounds but haven't been able to injure him. I font know when but a smile had crept onto my face. Seeing an opportunity I slash him. While I'm slashing him I will my blade to slightly convert into fire leaving black flames on one of his wings.

He tries to extinguish it using his reiatsu but soon notices he cant. He casts spells but its all futile, finally losing his cool he cuts off his wing and watches it while it turns into ashes on the ground.

He looks up at me but its not his normal look where he seems to place nothing in his eye but shows fear, but above that hatred pure unadulterated hatred.

Smiling at him I further trigger him by covering myself in golden flames which immediately begin healing me. he then regens his wing before charging at me while I do the same.

As I'm charging at him I condense blueish white samurai armor with the Phenex family crest on the chest piece. Once my armor formed the temperature in the surroundings dropped and you could see ice fog coming off of my armor.

We continue to trade blows though this time I'm at a closer level compared to last time. my armor has an effect that reduces an enemies speed slightly which is a great advantage and I can instantly repair it by infusing more condensed flames into it.

The reduction in speed is really noticeable since now I'm able to inflict damage instead of just receiving it. the problem is that whenever I'm about to slash him he places a wing in front to block and he instantly cuts it off when it catches on fire.

This begins to annoy me so I use a move I've been working on. I have a large mass of black flames form behind me. I then begin to condense them into small needles. This is straining since black fire is the most troublesome to use due to its nature and forming many different objects out of it further increases the difficulty.

His eyes dilate seeing about 200 needles formed out of black flames around me. not giving him a moment to think I change my wings to be made out of purple fire which combines my fire and lightning elements. These wings give me a significant speed boost.

Not letting him ponder on what I've done I charge at him with my new found speed. Catching him off guard I stab at him though he still manages to block with his arm that he instantly rips off.

I click my tongue and continue attacking. While we're in the midst of our intense sword fight I will all 200 needles that have been silently hovering behind me to attack him. Feeling death approaches him he surrounds himself in his wings though 3 manage to get through before his shield forms.

Opening up his wings I see 2 needles pierced in his chest and another one on his leg. He stabs himself in the chest and scoops out the flesh the flames are burning. He then rips off his leg and each of his wings.

While he's ripping off his wings I manage to catch my breath and attack him. squeezing out all of my remaining mana I increase my wings density which further increases the speed boost they give me. I slash at his head though he moves it but I slill manage to slightly cut him which was enough. The blade continues going down and slashes through his chest including the Hogyoku that doesn't get cut.

It catches fire though it wasn't being burnt away. As for Aizen before he could react his whole torso is on fire. in a rage he strongly wills for more power. With a low burst of wind I get pushed back and what's in front of me is him in his final form where the skin on his face peeled back revealing a black face with a large mouth full of razor-sharp teeth.

"Hahaha, what now. The only thing that could harm me was that black flame of yours but now even though I still can't extinguish it I heal faster than it can burn me." Hearing him I begin laughing out loud.

"Is that so well then well just have to turn up the heat," I say while getting into a stance. Seeing me he get ready to continue the fight, though I do have to say he looks cooler now that he's completely covered in my black flames.

While looking at each other in preparation for the continuation of the fight I send Issei a mental message.

'Now' Receiving my message the others near him see him pointing towards us and hear a loud transfer and the next thing anyone knew Aizen begins loudly screaming in pain.

Looking at him now you'd not be able to see him. The reason being that my flames have gotten darker to the point you cant see through them. I smile seeing what I could achieve one day. Hearing him screaming isn't annoying like it was with those vampires and devils but instead, it's pleasant to the ears.

Listening to his screaming for a few seconds I launch a blast of black flame towards the Aizen. Upon contact, the stronger flames burning Aizen do as I command and absorb the flame I'm launching at it. they continue to grow while getting stronger. Then the flames turn another shade darker causing me to smile knowing Issei just did another transfer.

For 2 and a half minute with an extra boost every 10 seconds and me adding more flames to it he burned. Finally, after all, that was left of Aizen were ashes after the flames extinguished themselves allowing others to see the remains.

Ash litters the ground and in the center of the ash lies and orb. Smiling I go and pick it up. It's light and I can feel great power coming from within. I send it back to my room at the mansion since I know no one can sense it there after having placed hundreds of concealing barriers on my room and also we no longer have any servants. They were all fired after Issei learned to cook. I help him occasionally and since I can control my flames precisely I simply fill the house with fire and will it to only burn dirt and dust.

I start flying back to the group and see them looking at me with caution but no longer hatred. Once I land Ravel tells me that they explained that Ichigo's current condition is normal and that they went through it too. With the darkness, I enveloped him in being there to protect those around him from his current wild powers and also to help refine his powers into stronger ones by exposing him to a stronger more trained and refined version of his new element.

"Where's Aizen." Asks the head captain to which I simply toss him a bag full of ashes. Looking inside he nods his head.

"What happened to the Hogyoku." Asks Kisuke to which I say it wasn't there when the flames disappeared so I guess it disappeared when its user died.

He nods while not entirely believing me but since this hasn't ever happened before he doesn't have anything to refute me with.

I ask Isshin if we can stay at his house while Ichigo completes his transformation to which he agrees.
