That golden light was not just ordinary light, but also exuded an extremely powerful holy power.
Golden specks like fairy dust were also flying around in the room.
Making anyone who saw this, even supernatural beings like Sona and Tsubaki open their mouths in awe.
But realized the golden light contained a divine power that was probably stronger than those angels.
Sona and Tsubaki panicked.
They're devils after all!
A devil's weakness is holy power.
Even being exposed to holy power/elements won't make them turn to dust like vampires who are afraid of sunlight.
But it still weakens them to some extent depending on how strong the holy power is.
Both girls instinctively wanted to hide behind objects or anything that made them feel safe.
"It's too late..." Sona said while covering her face with the report paper.
"No, Kaichou. I actually feel fine." Tsubaki corrected the position of her glasses and said calmly.
"Huh? But the holy power... Um, you're right." Sona checked the state of her body and said: "This holy power strangely has no debuff effect on devils."
Tsubaki nodded, her gaze returning to what Eiji was holding.
The golden light slowly subsided and after disappearing, the figure of a silver long sword with a blue and gold hilt appeared.
The sword looked very beautiful, and devil like Sona. She could feel a very strong holy power, she didn't know how strong it was, but she was sure it was even more terrifying than all the Holy Swords possessed by those Church people.
As a person who had secretly collected power information from various supernatural factions living in Japan.
Although it was rather superficial, she was sure that the sword in Eiji's hand was not one of the Holy Swords in the Church.
The appearance of the sword was the first time she had seen it.
Even from the Sacred Gear list that she remembered perfectly, she was sure that sword wasn't on the list either.
Was it really Sacred Gear or just a sword that Eiji could summon?
"Eiji-kun, this sword... Is this really Sacred Gear?"
Eiji also looked at the sword in his own hand curiously.
After all this was the first time he summoned the Excalibur he got from the system.
I have to say that it's really cool.
And when I held it, I knew it was very powerful.
If he really went all out with this sword and made a slash.
I'm afraid it would be easy to cut this school in half, right?
Eiji immediately dispelled the crazy idea in his mind, looked at Sona and said: "Yes, I believe this thing is what you mean by Sacred Gear."
"This thing has long been inside my body, or rather my soul and the first time I learned of this was when I was studying abroad."
Eiji lied without blinking his eyes.
His expression while saying that looked very natural as if lying was like breathing for him.
Sona and Tsubaki almost believed this, but not after the blonde boy's inner voice was heard.
[I'm lying, cough. I'm a time traveler after all, isn't it natural to have cheating stuff on my body?]
[But it's true that this sword is Sacred Gear connected to my soul.]
Miss System upgraded this sword, but he himself wasn't sure what was different about this sword other than it being linked to his soul?
¶{Host's compatibility with that sword will be absolutely perfect and there is no need to fulfill some troublesome requirements like in the original work.}
¶{And that sword has now become a kind of EX growth type magic sword with unlimited potential as the host's strength grows.}
¶{If in the future host reaches a power that can destroy planets, then this sword can also do the same with one swing.}
¶{If the host reaches a level that can destroy stars, then this sword can also do so.}
¶{After being reconstructed into Sacred Gear it also of course has a Balance Breaker mode which when released is several times stronger than the original work.}
Miss System's explanation had a quite arrogant tone like a middle schooler showing off her homework because getting a 100 in school.
As for the original work? Eiji certainly knew which franchise this sword came from.
It's just that I'm a little doubtful if this sword is that strong?
I haven't tried it yet anyway.
Sona and Tsubaki looked at Eiji flatly.
This bastard lied without blinking.
Also what do you mean it's normal for time travelers to have cheating goods?
That tone... That's the tone a versailles uses!
Doesn't that mean you have a lot of things you're hiding besides that sword.
Sona who was smart guessed this, and actually she was only a little surprised because previously she had also seen Eiji defeat the protagonist Rito with another power that she herself was not sure what it was.
The point is that this time traveler has many secrets!
And that only made her want him in her group even more!
"So that's it." Sona nodded, she pretended not to see through Eiji's lies and said: "Just by looking at it, I can feel that the sword contains a very strong holy power."
"Holy power?" Eiji pretended to be confused.
"Un." Sona explained, "Holy power is usually possessed by supernatural beings such as Angels or fallen Angels. There are also some humans who can use holy power by using the Holy Sword owned by the Church faction."
"It seems like there are quite a few supernatural factions in this world."
Sona nodded again. "Yes, besides devils like us who are from the devil faction. There are also factions of angels, fallen angels, youkai and gods. The latter is also divided into several and it's long enough to go behind do you want to hear it?"
"No, thank you."
Eiji immediately shook his head and refused.
[I know a lot of the original work, why do I have to hear it again?]
Sona and Tsubaki smiled wryly.
If you're saying that, why are you even asking.
Oh right, you still want to pretend.
"By the way Eiji-kun, what's the name of that Sacred Gear?" Tsubaki asked curiously, she even walked up to Eiji and looked at the sword in his hand from a close distance.
If you look closely, the sword has lines like an unknown language but looks beautiful.
Sona also saw it from a close distance, but did not dare to touch it because she knew that inside that thing there was a sacred power that might be enough to blow up the city?
She wasn't sure how scary it was.
But it was better not to touch it because she still remembered she was a devil.
Even if it was the Holy Sword of the church, many devils who had tried to steal those swords from the church admitted that they would be in pain when touching it.
What about the sword in Eiji's hand? I'm afraid if a devil tried to touch it; they would die on the spot.
That was just speculation of course, and would probably be proven if Eiji suddenly slashed at them with the sword.
But Sona, and even Tsubaki believed that Eiji would not try to hurt them intentionally.
Somehow they believed that Eiji would not do such a thing.
"..." Eiji.
Seeing these beautiful girls looking at his sword from such a close distance.
I feel a little strange.
The atmosphere was somehow ambiguous.
The fragrant odor of the two girls didn't help either, making him have the evil idea to reveal his true sword.
¶{No, host. What are you going to do!}
Miss System shouted in panic.
Well Miss System, I was just kidding~
¶{....}
Eiji smiled and said to the two girls surrounding him. "The name of this sword is Sword of Promised Victory, or it can also be called Excalibur."
""Excalibur!?""
Sona and Tsubaki were surprised by the name of the sword.
That's because...
"Wait, Eiji-kun. Are you sure this is the name of your Sacred Gear? How did you know?" Sona asked.
Eiji answered: "From the sword itself."
As if to support his lie, his Excalibur trembled slightly and flashed several times with golden light.
"...."
Seriously?
Sona fixed the position of her glasses, Eiji wondered how many times he had seen a girl make such a move today?
[By the way, looking at Sona's face up close. That oval face looks really cute, reminds me of a certain episode in the anime that featured Sona in a magical girl costume.]
[Hahaha! If I remember correctly, it was Sona's older sister who urged Sona to do a magical girl cosplay that made the people at school smile.]
[It was later revealed that even though Sona seemed to dislike wearing magical girl costumes.]
[Secretly, when she was alone in her bedroom. Sona would sometimes do some funny poses while wearing the magical girl costume in front of the mirror].
[If Sona's older sister knows that her younger sister also likes magical girl. I don't know how excited she would be]
"Nani!?" Sona suddenly shouted, her face looking panicked and flushed like a little girl caught stealing candy.
She looked at Eiji with her purple eyes filled with shame.
Damn, this guy, how did he know her little secret?
Ah right, he's a damn time traveler!
He's been watching anime with characters like her in them.
Naturally, he must know all her secrets, right?
Fortunately Eiji seemed to have no intention of exposing other people's secrets, at least not from his mouth.
If it was from his inner voice, she didn't have to worry about her older sister knowing what embarrassing things she sometimes did in her bedroom.
Knowing that her younger sister who always disliked magical girls and said that it was too childish actually liked the same thing as her older sister secretly.
I'm going to lose face!
Sona felt very embarrassed just thinking that such a scene would happen.
Luckily her secret is still safe, right?
It doesn't matter if Eiji finds out because what else could it be?
The other party, time traveler who watched her anime.
Just...
"Pfft!"
Sona's expression darkened, she almost forgot the girl next to her could also hear Eiji's inner voice.
"Tsubaki..."
"Huh? Yes, Kaichou. Can I help you?" Tsubaki's lips trembled, it was obvious that she was holding back laughter.
I didn't expect my boss, who was always serious and presented a mature image, to secretly like the same hobby as her older sister, who she always mocked for being too childish.
Sona, are you embarrassed?
Although she didn't know what Tsubaki was thinking right now. Sona was sure the girl was laughing at herself in her mind.
Bastard...
She gave Tsubaki a sharp look as if to say don't you dare say anything about what you just heard.
Tsubaki nodded, of course she would definitely obey her Sona's orders.
After all, the other party was the same king as her boss.
Okay, I understand.
But you can't stop me from laughing in my mind.
Hahaha!
Sona, Sona...
"..." Sona knew her Queen was still laughing at her secretly.
Damn, she would have to punish that girl later.
For now...
She looked at Eiji who had deactivated his Sacred Gear, spending his tea in a hurry.
"Eiji-kun, where are you going?
Eiji pretended to look at the clock on his cell phone and said: "Back to class? I'm afraid the teacher will be angry that I'm so late back to class."
With a smile on his face, he was about to walk to the exit, but one of his hands was held back by Sona's gentle hand.
Tsubaki was also standing in front of him with her breasts up as if to say I'm blocking your way and you can go ahead and I'll just catch you...with a look that resembled a she-wolf.
[These evil girls! Let this handsome boy go!]
Eiji shouted in his mind, on the surface he said: "Um... Can you guys please let me go? I remember you guys previously said devils don't eat humans or something."
Tsubaki smiled. "Don't worry, we really won't eat you, Eiji-kun. It's just that Kaichou hasn't finished talking to you yet."
"Right Eiji-kun, I haven't finished talking to you yet. Please wait a moment."
Sona said that and stopped holding Eiji's hand to prove that she really meant no harm.
Eiji also knew this, just... I know what this girl wants and I refuse!
Please don't force me, okay?
I'm actually reluctant to beat up a pretty girl.
"Alright Shintori-senpai. What exactly do you want from me? Want me to join your peerage and become a devil? I refuse."
Sona sighed, disappointed and a little sad but she still hadn't given up!
"Don't rush to refuse... Eiji-kun. I can offer you many benefits if you will join my peerage."
"Oh?" Eiji feigned interest and said: "What are the benefits you mean?"
Sona smiled and explained. "If you are willing to join my peerage."
"I can give you a lot of money and..."
Eiji shook his head. "Not interested, I actually have quite a lot of money."
Sona smiled wryly, ah I knew this would be difficult.
"If you become a devil, you can live long for about a thousand years more."
"Not interested."
"..."
"How about I give you some magical artifacts? My devil family, the Sitri Family in the underworld has..."
"Sorry Senpai, but I'm still not interested."
Eiji scratched his cheek slightly, he hoped this heroine understood.
"How about beauty? If you're willing it's not impossible to make me your woman."
"Kaichou, are you serious?"
The other side, Tsubaki was surprised, she didn't expect Sona to go this far to recruit Eiji.
This price was definitely higher than other members of Sona's peerage, even her.
But when thinking about Eiji's identity and power as a mysterious time traveler.
She felt this price was reasonable enough to bind Eiji to the same ship as them.
Sona had a serious expression, she had certainly considered this price and even though she hadn't fallen in love with Eiji yet.
She had liked him enough so far and it was not bad to have the other party as her husband.
With Eiji's mysterious appearance and power as a time traveler.
Even she, Sona Sitri was tempted.
Her face flushed slightly, but she tried to look at the blonde boy in front of her seriously.
"I..." Eiji hesitated, he was actually surprised Sona would go this far to recruit him.
[Crazy, but it's a pity. If you use beauty tricks to get me.]
[You failed, after all there are still many other beautiful girls who are as beautiful as you, Sona.]
[There's Lala waiting at my house, and there's also Yui who's just a matter of time before... Cough, the point is I definitely won't be tempted by Sona's offer to...]
I don't know why, but suddenly Sona grabbed Tsubaki's shoulder and said boldly. "If you agree, you can also get Tsubaki! After all, in the supernatural world, it's normal to have a harem."
"Sona, you, you..."
Tsubaki didn't expect Sona to sell her out like this, but strangely she wasn't angry and didn't really mind if the subject was Eiji.
Her face reddened, her silence only made Sona nod and become more confident in her decision.
"See, Tsubaki doesn't seem to mind."
"How about Eiji-kun, are you interested now?"
Sona smiled, that smile looked sexy like a devil displaying her natural charm.
Eiji was not affected by her smile, he smiled slightly and glanced at a chessboard lying on the table.
He remembered in the original work Sona liked to play chess and used the game as a shield and rules to decide who was worthy of being her husband.
Although it was good that Sona was tempted by him, just by seeing a bit of his power and maybe also because of his good looks.
But that's not enough, he wants her to completely surrender to him and fall in love with him.
Tsubak is the same, I don't just want her body.
I want everything.
Be it their hearts or their bodies.
And it's actually a good opportunity to change the plot and get other rewards from the system!
"How about we play chess? If Senpai wins, I wouldn't mind joining your peerage, even without your previous offer."
"!!!"
Hearing this, Sona widened her eyes in surprise.
Tsubaki too, she was shocked and looked at Eiji as if he was crazy.
