Chereads / DxD:La / Chapter 7 - Ch 5

Chapter 7 - Ch 5

In a field filled with craters,which was covered with dead bodies of Devils,we see Ren and Xenovia with Twin Triana and Durandal in their hands respectively.Both covered in blood unknown if it their own or other's.

"Haa,I thought this adventure would be fun and enjoyable,but I didn't expect to fight a bunch of devils."Xenovia said releasing a sigh.

"Well sorry,Not everything in this world is Rainbow and sunshine."

"Who even were these devils?"Xenovia asked.

"Followers of the Leviathan Clan."Ren said carefully looking around.

"What are we even looking for?"Xenovia asked the question for the fifth time.

"Sigh,A sacred gear user."Sighing Ren finally answered the question.

'What type of sacred gear is so valuable that Ren is interested in it?'Xenovia thought.

"On guard,the fight is not over."Ren said with a serious look.

"But,There is no one here."Xenovia said looking around her.

Ren rather than answering Xenovia's queries,simply swung his spear in a slashing motion to reveal a castle hidden by a barrier.

"Whaat??How did you know there was a barrier?"

"Experience.Now look ahead we got company."Ren replied.

Xenovia looked ahead to hundreds of devils charging toward them.

Ren brought his spear to his side and swung his sword releasing a horizontal arc of demonic energy,as he swung his spear he muttered"Reverse.".Contrary to what should have happened an horizontal arc of holy energy was released which vaporized most of the devils.

"Take care of the stragglers."Ren said to the dumbfounded Xenovia.

As the two took care of all the devils the encountered,the duo headed towards the place where Ren sensed the most demonic power.

As the duo reached a door,which after opening revealed a lavishly decorated room though on the bed of the room revealed a young girl who appeared to be in her late teen,she had pale skin, long purple hair and orange eyes.

"Is she the Sacred Gear user?"

"Most probably,though I maybe wrong."Ren replied.

"Why isn't she waking up?"Xenovia asked as she tried to wake the girl up.

"That pointless,the girl appears to be in some sort of Coma,most probably the Devil Sleeping Disease."

"Then wasn't everything we did pointless then?"Xenovia said dejected.

"Well not really,we can just stimulate her Sacred Gear to wake her up."

"We can do that?!?"Asked a shocked Xenovia,she has heard that the Devil Sleeping Disease is in incurable.

Ren walked forward and tapped his longinus on the Sleeping Beauty's forehead.At first nothing happened but slowly the young girl started to wake up.

"Hello? Do I know you?" Ren and Xenovia heard a melodious sound.

As the girls asked the duo in a innocent tone,Ren stepped forward and revealed their identities,he also explained the young girl of her situation.

"So I was infected by a disease which made me fall in a coma for a long time and you two woke me up with the help of something called Sacred Gear."The young girl who hand introduced herself as Inglivid Stratuss said.

"Well Yeah,you could say that."Xenovia said in a awkward tone.

"Inglivid,Will you come with us?"Ren bluntly said.

"What do you mean?"Inglivid asked confused.

"Inglivid you have a power inside of you that can change the world as it is,either positively or negatively.And after word of your power and sacred gear spreads many will seek you and hope to control you.And I won't say I will be able to protect you from them for ever but i can make it so in the future you are able to protect yourself from them."

"I want some time to think about it."
