Adrammelech
The first-year students participating in the field exercise were returning to the rendezvous point where they met with the three sixth-year students. Nomura, Shinozaki, and Akechi looked and were pleased as all the first-years were coming back.
"Excellent, all of them are back," Nomura said, "the exercise is a success."
"I'll contact the Barrier Unit," Akechi said and had his communicator near his mouth, "Barrier Unit, do you copy?"
"Barrier Unit, go ahead," Someone said on the other line.
"The exercise has been a success," Akechi said, "how are thing on your side?"
"Everything seems fine on our side," The Barrier Unit member responded.
"Understood, be on standby," Akechi said.
"Got it," The Barrier Unit said.
"Okay," Shinozaki said and stepped forward, "All right first-years, listen up."
The students looked and paid attention to the three sixth-years.
"Now that the exercise is over, we can move on to the next—" Shinozaki spoke.
Shinozaki didn't get to finish what she was going say because there was a sudden spike of Reiatsu. This surprised the students and they all wondered what was going on as they looked around. There was a crash on the ground and brought the students' attention to the crash site. They looked and there was someone there as the smoke started to clear. What they saw was the muscular bipedal green dragon-like creature with a goat-like head with horns and cloven hooves and spread its wings. This shocked the students in what they were seeing. Kamito, Velsaria, and Jio were shocked in particular as they recognized the creature as a demon spirit.
"A demon spirit," Kamito said.
"Why is a demon spirit here?" Velsaria asked.
"I never thought I would see one here," Jio commented.
"Wait, what did you say?" Nomura asked hearing the three students.
"A demon spirit?" Shinozaki asked.
"No, this can't be," Restia said in Kamito's head, "Why is he here?"
"Wait, Restia," Kamito replied in his head, "Do you know that demon spirit?"
Velsaria felt the pulse from her spirit seal and looked at it.
"Dreadnought, it seems that you're very angry at the presence of this demon spirit," Velsaria said in her head.
The green goat-headed demon spirit grinned and suddenly disappeared which surprised all the students. The demon spirit reappeared behind Nomura and was about to fatally strike the sixth-year student with his claws. Kamito saw the attack and quickly countered by striking the demon spirit and sent him flying in air. The green demon spirit spun in the air and landed on his feet on the ground while the rest of the students were shocked in what happened. Nomura was shaking as he couldn't believe what had just occurred.
"That was fast," Nomura said in his head as he felt terrified, "I couldn't even follow the movements," Nomura looked at Kamito, "Had it not been for that first-year, I would have instantly been killed. What in the world is going on?"
"Akito, are you alright?" Shinozaki asked with concern.
"Y-Yeah, I'm fine," Nomura said.
Meanwhile Kamito stepped forward and stopped and faced demon spirit with his sword.
"That was impressive," The demon spirit said, "you're quite fast Kamito Kazehaya. You were able to see my attack coming while your senior couldn't see it."
"Who are you demon spirit?" Kamito asked, "And how do you know my name?"
The demon spirit smiled, "Hey Restia Ashdoll, get out here. How long do you plan to hide out? You might as well come out as well Terminus Est."
"Wait, what?" Kamito asked shocked.
"What's going on?" One of the students asked.
"My goodness, you are really just as irritating as you have always been," Restia said.
"You dare call me out as well," Est said, "do you know who I am?"
The two spirit seals on Kamito's hands glowed and Restia and Est materialized and the surprised the others students and they questions of the two girls that suddenly appeared.
"Hold on, what is this?" Akechi asked, "Who are you two?" Akechi turned to Kamito, "Hey first-year, what is the meaning of this?"
"It's a bit of a long story," Kamito replied looking at Akechi.
The demon spirit laughed as he was pleased.
"I'm actually happy to see you again Restia," The demon spirit said, "it's been what, 400 years since we last saw each other."
"Hmph, well I can't say that I feel the same way about you Adrammelech," Restia responded with a glare.
"Adrammelech?" Est asked.
"Restia, who is this?" Kamito asked.
"He's part of the group of demon spirits that have gotten extremely annoying that have also corrupted, control, and even consume other spirits and are more powerful than any typical demon spirit," Restia said, "they are known as the Demon Lord Spirits."
"Indeed," Adrammelech said as he was pleased, "it's nice to meet you Kamito and I suppose all the rest of you students of the Shin'o Academy of the Soul Society. As the Dark Spirit herself just explained, I am one of the Demon Lord Spirits. My name is Adrammelech, the Demon Lord Spirit of Lightning."
"Demon Lord Spirits," Velsaria said, "I've heard about them from my grandfather but he was always sure they were made up."
"Demon Lord Spirits," Jio said, "what the hell? I've never heard of them before."
"Not surprising," Restia commented, "Not even the people of the Instructional School knew about them. Some did but assumed that they were myths."
"I see," Kamito said and then faced Adrammelech, "Demon Lord Spirit of Lightning, why are you here?"
"I came here for a proposal for you Kamito," Adrammelech said.
"A proposal?" Kamito asked.
"Yes, I came here as a representative for my brethren to offer you something Kamito," Adrammelech said.
"If that is the case when why did you just try to kill my senior Akito Nomura?" Kamito asked upset, "I know we only just met but I already dislike you and it seems Restia feels the same way."
"I know Restia does and I find that sad," Adrammelech replied, "we could have been great friends."
"Well I make a point to not be friends with nuisances," Restia said.
"Hmph, if you been our friends, we could have helped you save your Elementalist Solomon and all the other Elementalists you contracted in the past but you choose to just being stubborn," Adrammelech said.
"How dare you…" Restia replied upset.
"Oh and to answer your question in why I attack the one called Akito Nomura," Adrammelech said, "well I did that because I was sure that he as well as the other would get in the way… but I maybe I was just jumping the gun. I just want give the proposal that my brethren and I want impart on you."
"And what is this proposal?" Kamito asked.
"Kamito Kazehaya," Adrammelech said, "we of the Demon Lord Spirits wants you to join us."
The students and the two contracted spirits were shocked in what they just heard.
"You want me to join you and the other Demon Lord Spirit Lords," Kamito said.
"That's right," Adrammelech said, "we would very like to have you in our ranks."
"You annoying spirits are crazy to think Kamito would agree to it," Restia said.
"Restia, you stay out of this," Adrammelech responded, "I'm talking to Kamito, not you so you stay out of it. "
"How dare you," Restia replied angrily.
"Anyway," Adrammelech said to Kamito, "what do you say? Will you join us?"
"I refuse," Kamito replied.
"Now hold on," Adrammelech said, "you shouldn't be so hasty to just refuse. That is just being short-sighted."
"I see no reason to actually just go along with it," Kamito said, "why do you want me to join you anyway?"
"It's simple," Adrammelech said, "it's the because of the fact that you are indeed the rightful successor of the Demon King Solomon."
Kamito narrowed his eyes at the response and the students were shocked and confused while Jio felt insulted in what Demon Lord Spirit was saying about Kamito.'
"Demon King?" One of the students asked.
"What is he talking about?" Another student asked.
"Hey Kazehaya, what is the meaning of this?" Akechi asked.
"It's nothing," Kamito said, "I assure you that it is nothing."
"It is not nothing Kamito," Adrammelech said, "you might deny it yourself or not care but that is the truth. You're the successor of the Demon King that brought your original world to chaos and therefore, we want to nurture you and have be what you are truly meant to be," Adrammelech extended his hand, "Join us Kamito Kazehaya and you will be stand strong as the Demon King. Of course, you can actually do that right now by performing a certain act."
"I don't know what it is you're talking doing a certain act but I'm not interested," Kamito insisted, "I don't care what you have plan for me, I will not join you and I will not be the Demon King. I intend to be a Shinigami protecting the Soul Society and keep the balance of souls. That is my decision so again, I refuse your proposal."
"Kamito," Restia said.
Restia and Est were glad to hear what Kamito had said although they were both confident that Kamito would refuse Adrammelech's offer.
"Hey, you must be a fool if you think he's the true successor of the Demon King," Jio commented, "the one who you should be looking is me. After all, I'm the one who beat proving to be better than him."
"Shut your mouth boy," Adrammelech responded angrily, "My brethren and I have no interest in you. You're not even an actual Elementalist. You're nothing more but a failed experiment of the Instructional School. Trash like you shouldn't be flapping their mouths so casually."
Jio was shocked and gradually got angry at the Demon Spirit Lord's response and then sent a hateful glare at Kamito. Adrammelech sighed and looked at Kamito.
"Such a shame," Adrammelech said, "If this is how you response…"
Adrammelech got in a stance and released his Reiatsu which brought the people down a bit due to the Reiatsu.
"To think he would be able produce his own Reiatsu," Restia said.
"A demon spirit usually couldn't do that," Est commented.
"What a shame," Adrammelech said, "however if that is your response Kamito and there is only one thing for me to do."
"Oh yeah?" Kamito replied as he was ready to face the goat-headed demon spirit.
Adrammelech stopped releasing his Reiatsu and spread out his arms and wings. The action that Adrammelech did summoned numerous Huge Hollows and they surrounded the students much to the their shock and even the students who acting as the Barrier Unit found themselves surrounded by Huge Hollows shocked that they got through their barriers.
"Hollows," Nomura said, "real Hollows."
"And they're huge," Akechi said.
"This is not good," Shinozaki said, "we have to at least make sure the first-years are safe."
The first-years of the Advance Class looked around and most of them were terrified at the unexpected turns of Huge Hollows showing up. Restia and Est went and stood next to Kamito and they looked at Adrammelech.
"Kamito, since you refuse the proposal then the only thing I will do as a result is kill you," Adrammelech said.
Kamito sheathed the katana he had and was about to have Restia and Est in their Elemental Waffe forms to take on Demon Lord Spirit but Adrammelech dashed towards Kamito with speed and he was able to push away Restia and Est much their surprised and then the demon spirit followed by attacking Kamito who was forced to quickly unsheathed his sword again and blocked the fist and claw attacks from Adrammelech and Kamito countered by swinging his sword at the Demon Lord Spirit. Kamito and Adrammelech were fighting each other in fast pace and with lighting speed. Restia and Est looked on seeing Kamito taking on Adrammelech. They were about to go and aid their Elementalist but then a few Huge Hollows showed and got in their way. Restia and Est just got annoyed.
"How annoying," Restia said.
"Stupid Hollows getting in the way for us to get to Kamito," Est said.
Restia formed a ball of darkness while Est held out her hand as the Huge Hollows that they believed were foolish in getting in their way went in to attack. Meanwhile most of the first-years were running trying to get away from the Huge Hollows. One of the Huge Hollows were chasing three students and was getting close but was suddenly slashed and brought down by Velsaria when she swung her sword. Velsaria followed up by holding up her left hand.
"Hado#31: Shakkaho!" Velsaria said.
Velsaria fired the flame-like Kido and struck the Huge Hollow in the face. Velsaria followed up again by jumping up in the air and slashed the Huge Hollow in half and caused the Huge Hollow to disintegrate. The others students went to Velsaria and they were grateful.
"Thank you," One of the female students said.
"Yeah, you really saved us," One of the male students said.
"Are you all right?" Velsaria asked.
"Yeah, thanks to you," Another male students said.
There were a few roars and Velsaria and the other students looked and saw a few Huge Hollows that was approaching them.
"Oh no, more of them," Another female student said terrified.
"Stay back," Velsaria said.
"Okay," Another male student said.
Velsaria sheathed her katana.
"Dreadnought, I need you," Velsaria said.
Velsaria's spirit seal glowed and a bright light surrounded Velsaria making some of her classmates shield their eyes. After the bright light was gone, they were surprise to see that Velsaria was in her huge armor.
"Whoa, what's going on?" One of the male students asked, "Hey Fahrengart, what is that?"
"My partner," Velsaria answered.
The Huge Hollows and charged towards Velsaria who responded by readying her canons and fired and stuck the Huge Hollows. Velsaria moved in her Elemental Waffe and shot her cannons at the attacking Huge Hollows. Velsaria turned to where Kamito and Adrammelech were fighting each other.
"Kazehaya," Velsaria said in her head, "so he's not only Ren Ashbell who became the strongest Blade Dancer but he's also the successor of the Demon King."
Meanwhile Jio was fighting and exterminating Huge Hollows that was targeting him. As Jio finished off the remaining Huge Hollow that was targeting him, Jio clenched his teeth in annoyance.
"Even with my superiority, I'm still getting disrespected," Jio said angrily.
Jio thought about when he met Aizen a year ago back in Inzuri and the promise he gave in exchange of working under him and Jio huffed as he thought about abiding his time as he felt that he would be the one to be in control of everything and he was going to drill it into people that he was the true successor of the Demon King. Meanwhile Nomura, Shinozaki, and Akechi looked around.
"It seems that some of the first-years are fighting back against these Hollows," Akechi said.
"It's a disgrace that we can't do much as sixth-years," Nomura said, "we should be ashamed of ourselves."
"Kenta, have you contacted the Soul Society to request assistance?" Shinozaki asked.
"Yes I have," Akechi said with a nod, "They said that they'll be sending some Shinigami to assist us soon. We just need to hold on until they get here."
"It seems that's all we can do," Nomura said, "Come, we have fight and protect the first-years."
"What about that first-year facing against that creature?" Shinozaki asked with concern, "The one called a Demon Lord Spirit."
"Right," Nomura said as he looked at the side with a worried expression, "He's going to need help. He's fighting a dangerous enemy alone."
Meanwhile Kamito and Adrammelech continued with their fighting with speed and intensity. Adrammelech was swinging his hands trying to scratch Kamito with his sharp claws but Kamito was able to dodge every swing and reacted by swinging his katana.
"It's a shame that this is what you have chosen!" Adrammelech commented, "You have sad track record of being so stubborn and that it ends up biting you in the end!"
"You know nothing about me!" Kamito responded.
Kamito swung his sword again at the Demon Lord Spirit but the green muscular spirit caught and stopped the swing of the blade with his right hand. Kamito was surprised by this.
"I really don't get it," Adrammelech said, "it seems that you are denying your destiny. Can't you see that you're someone that is above others? I really don't get why you don't want to seize your opportunity. You really seem weak doing that. Restia has spoiled you rotten or maybe what she has really done is held you back and really stunt your growth but then again, she did leave you for the a period of three years. How do you not this as an act of betrayal and worse working with someone else pretending to be you. She even went as far as working for that trash that was running his mouth."
"You don't know anything about Restia," Kamito responded angrily.
"I know what happened back when you were alive in your world," Adrammelech said, "we know what happened right up to what led your miserable death. You were embarrassing weak and pitiful for the way you died."
"That's enough," Kamito said as he quickly pointed his left index finger at Adrammelech, "Hado#4: Byakurai!"
The Demon Lord Spirit had to dodge and let go of Kamito's blade and he spread his wings and flew up in the air.
"Pitiful," Adrammelech said, "your lightning has no real power behind it so let me show you one of mine!"
Adrammelech opened his left hand and formed a ball of green lightning from his left hand and three it at Kamito. The first-year student saw the attack and sliced the green ball of lightning in half with his sword.
Adrammelech formed two more green balls of lightning and shot them at Kamito and again Kamito countered by using his sword destroy them and then Adrammelech charged towards Kamito. The Demon Lord Spirit readied his claws to strike Kamito. However Kamito suddenly got right in front of Adrammelech and grabbed his face with his left hand and pushed him back with force. Adrammelech spun around as he was moving back and got himself together as he spread and flapped his wings and faced Kamito and growled.
"You stubborn little bastard," Adrammelech said.
Kamito readied himself as he glared at Adrammelech.
That's it for this chapter. Next chapter: Kamito continues his fight against Adrammelech with Est and Restia's help.
