"A gift?" Tenraku frowned, but before he could inquire further, a sudden agitation surged within him, and something flew out of Tenraku's body.
It was the Sacred Gear, [Chief Mourner's Crucified Stand of Purple Flame - Incinerate Anthem], that Tenraku had taken from Walburga!
To the shock of Tenraku and the girls, the palm-sized cross rapidly expanded into a colossal structure hundreds of meters tall in just a few breaths, towering in the void.
The immense cross emitted a sacred, dazzling light as if a holy hymn were echoing throughout the void.
"What... what's happening?" Tenraku and the girls were all stunned, caught off guard by this sudden turn of events. Meanwhile, the God Of The Holy Bible wore a nostalgic and complex expression.
So, this was to be his final fate...
Without saying another word, the God Of The Holy Bible's body began to disintegrate, transforming into countless particles of light that rushed towards the colossal cross in the void.
At that moment, a blinding light radiated from the cross, and a humanoid engraving appeared upon it.
It was the God Of The Holy Bible!
"He... he's merging with the cross," Walburga muttered blankly, her eyes filled with endless fanaticism.
Walburga had always known that her Sacred Gear, [Chief Mourner's Crucified Stand of Purple Flame - Incinerate Anthem], was incomplete. Before Jesus was crucified upon it, the cross was merely a tool of punishment. It was only because of Jesus's presence that the cross became known as a holy relic, the Holy Cross!
According to the properties of [Chief Mourner's Crucified Stand of Purple Flame - Incinerate Anthem], if a powerful soul could be captured and bound to the cross, the Sacred Gear would unleash even greater power. And among all powerful souls, who could be more suitable than Jesus, the God Of The Holy Bible himself?
Undoubtedly, the [Chief Mourner's Crucified Stand of Purple Flame - Incinerate Anthem], now fused with the soul of the God Of The Holy Bible, would become immensely powerful, perhaps surpassing even the mightiest Sacred Gear, [True Longinus]!
As the soul of the God Of The Holy Bible merged with the cross, the colossal structure in the void swiftly shrank, transforming into a beam of light that surged back into Tenraku's body.
"Tenraku, are you okay?" Rias and the girls looked at Tenraku with concern. Just as Tenraku was about to reassure them, his expression suddenly changed.
"Stand back!" He commanded.
The girls were still trying to comprehend what was happening when, in the next moment, a vast and violent aura erupted from Tenraku's body!
"Aaaaahhh!"
The girls all screamed as they were blown away, while Tenraku's aura surged wildly like a rocket. It was the Scarlet Ruin Power, the Purifying Power of Sacredness, the combined power of Sirzechs and the God Of The Holy Bible!
Finally understanding, Tenraku realized: was this the gift bestowed upon him by the God Of The Holy Bible?!
"Aaaaaahhhhhhh!!!!"
The power Tenraku now possessed rivaled the combined power of dozens, even hundreds of Longinus. His body felt as though it would burst from the overwhelming surge of power. Blood began to spray from his body as he roared towards the sky.
After enduring countless trials and tribulations to reach this point, Tenraku refused to be overwhelmed by the surging power and be killed!
"Suppress it!!!"
"Roar!!!"
With bloodshot eyes, Tenraku let out a beastly roar.
Finally, a flash of light filled the void, and everything returned to calm.
"Tenraku!"
"Onii Chan!"
Rias and her girls, along with Azazel and the others, hurried back, but upon seeing Tenraku's condition, they all couldn't help but be shocked.
At this moment, behind Tenraku stretched a pair of enormous and magnificent Golden divine wings, while above his head appeared a halo reminiscent of an Angel. His entire body was enveloped in a layer of sacred aura, with a scarlet hue representing ruin wrapping around the outer layer. He looked like an incredibly noble deity!
"Tenraku, did you absorb the power of Sirzechs and the God Of The Holy Bible?" Even Azazel couldn't help but be astonished and asked.
"I suppose so." Tenraku didn't verbally respond, but his voice resonated directly in the minds of everyone present.
Rias and her girls, as well as Azazel and his companions, all showed expressions of shock. But it wasn't just them; even Tenraku himself was taken aback.
Clasping his hands together and feeling the seemingly infinite power within him, Tenraku felt as though he could now ruin the world with a mere wave of his hand, commanding everything with a single thought!
Undoubtedly, he had transcended to a completely new level of existence. Apart from Sovereign Beast 666 (Trihexa) - Trihexa, True · Red Dragon God Emperor, and the peak form of Ophis, he was perhaps the first person in history to reach such a realm!
The term "transcender" was no longer sufficient to describe Tenraku's current level. If one had to use a word to describe it—
Dominion!!!
Ruling over the world's summit, dominating all living beings and things.
This was Tenraku's current state!
"I... I'm completely lost now," Azazel muttered.
"Whatever happened, what matters is that the God Of The Holy Bible is dead, and Tenraku is unharmed."
"Yeah, thank goodness..."
"Onii Chan..."
Though still somewhat confused about the current situation, the girls breathed a sigh of relief, with Ravel even tearfully throwing herself into Tenraku's arms. Constantly facing unexpected situations, they had all been deeply worried.
"Now it's too early to relax. 666 (Trihexa) hasn't been eliminated yet, and the battle isn't over." Azazel's voice poured cold water on everyone.
Indeed, although the God Of The Holy Bible was dead, the monster 666 (Trihexa) was still alive!
Just the thought of facing 666 (Trihexa) again made Nimura Ruruko and the other girls shudder in fear; they truly didn't want to fight that monster again!
"Tenraku, can you defeat 666 (Trihexa) now?" Azazel asked, with a hint of anticipation in his expression.
"I'm not sure, perhaps..."
"But, leave it to me."
Tenraku's voice echoed in the minds of everyone present, and then his figure flickered as he appeared in the distant void where Ddraig and the others were battling 666 (Trihexa).
"Partner?"
"Ddraig, Albion, Tiamat, take a rest for a while."
Even several powerful mother Berserker Dragons had suffered serious injuries from the battle with 666 (Trihexa). Tenraku waved a few healing orbs to restore Ddraig and the others' bodies before facing 666 (Trihexa) head-on.
Though it wasn't entirely clear what had happened, seeing Tenraku at this moment left Ddraig, Albion, and Tiamat extremely shocked. They sensed a terrifying aura and power emanating from Tenraku, comparable, if not surpassing, that of 666 (Trihexa)!
"No, it may even be stronger than 666 (Trihexa)!!!"
"Master."
"Ouch."
Ophis and Lilith also appeared, clinging to Tenraku with a pitiful appearance. They seemed somewhat battered, especially Lilith, who had a bloodstain on her forehead.
"You've worked hard. Leave the rest to me; I'll avenge you," Tenraku said as he gently comforted his two little pets. At the same time, he healed Ophis and Lilith's injuries.
Naturally, Ophis and Lilith noticed the changes in Tenraku's body. After staring blankly at him for a while, they nodded in agreement.
"All right."
Without saying anything more, Ophis and Lilith left Tenraku.
It was at this moment that 666 (Trihexa) on the opposite side roared and bellowed, unleashing seven massive shockwaves toward Tenraku!
Seeing this scene, Rias and her girls, who were hurrying over, couldn't help but turn pale with shock. They were well aware of how terrifying 666 (Trihexa)'s shockwaves were. Even one would be incredibly dangerous, let alone seven!
However, at this moment, Tenraku remained calm, with no intention of dodging at all. Suddenly, a curved energy barrier appeared in front of Tenraku, and no matter how fiercely the shockwaves from 666 (Trihexa) assaulted, the barrier around Tenraku stood firm like a rock, and Tenraku himself remained unmoved in the void.
"666 (Trihexa), is this all you've got for me now?" Tenraku muttered to himself, then he spread his arms. "In that case, you may as well perish!"
With a resolute expression, countless points of light shimmered in the entire void, and massive spears of light, each hundreds of meters long, materialized in the air. They were dense, numbering in the tens of thousands!
Under Tenraku's control, all the spears of light rained down upon 666 (Trihexa), exploding upon impact.
Boom! Boom!
"Retreat quickly!" Azazel and Rias' group exclaimed in shock as they witnessed the incoming energy storm.
However, at that moment, spheres of light manifested, enveloping everyone, and the onslaught of the energy storm instantly submerged them. Yet, within the spheres of light, everyone was unharmed. They immediately understood that Tenraku was protecting them!
The intense explosions didn't cease quickly; after the bombardment of countless spears of light, new ones materialized immediately. It was bombardment upon bombardment, continuously.
The entire isolated barrier domain trembled violently, filled with raging energy in every space and corner.
Towards the end, even Tenraku lost count of how many spears of light he had bombarded onto 666 (Trihexa). Was it tens of millions or billions? Well, bombing Earth dozens of times over should suffice. He refused to believe that this wouldn't annihilate that monster!
The intense explosions lasted for over an hour, leaving Rias and her group within the spheres of light pale-faced.
What an exaggerated battle! If it weren't for Tenraku's protection, just the aftermath of those explosions would have been enough to kill them countless times over!
Fortunately, the terrifying bombardment finally came to an end. The raging energy gradually subsided, and clarity returned to their vision.
The colossal 666 (Trihexa) had disappeared without a trace, replaced by a jade jewel now held in Tenraku's hand. 666 (Trihexa)'s body had been utterly ruined, with not a single cell remaining. Its soul had been crafted by Tenraku into a Sacred Gear, forever to serve under Tenraku's command!
Crack! Crack! Crack!
Like the sound of glass shattering, the isolated barrier domain, already pushed to its limit, finally couldn't bear the strain any longer, bursting into countless cracks and then shattering.
The bright sunlight streamed down, and Tenraku, Rias, and her group, as well as Azazel and his companions, all appeared in the sky above Kuoh Town, the Kamiya Family's territory.
Gazing at this familiar yet warm world outside, everyone found it difficult to snap out of their daze.
"Is... is it over?"
