Kumiko 3rd POV

It's been two days since she saved the blackstone, and she hadn't been more happy than to remind him of his debt toward her. Things weren't as hard as she would think it would be, maybe she could make it worse for him by giving him training to control his gear. So fun to irritate him.

"Found you…" said a dark voice behind her.

Kumiko's eyes widened as she evaded a slash from a sword.

"You reek with the devil's scent; maybe you spend your time with them, maybe you killed one… I don't really care, all I want is to kill something with my new toy" Kumiko turned to face her aggressor, he had white haired man with a crazy look on his face and had clothes that would fit a priest.

"Did you escape from an asylum?" she asked him.

He laughed madly before saying "You're a funny one! No one ever asked me that question!"

"Maybe you seek 'Salvation'?" asked Kumiko before taking her Kensei form "It doesn't matter, you attacked me, so you must die"

The man gasped before laughing again "Do you think that I'm alone"

Kumiko had a strange feeling before sensing a great presence.

"This kill is for you, Lord Ares!" claimed the voice of a man.

Koneko 3rd POV

After the first class, she went to talk with the samurai girl, but found only Li Niang sitting alone with a sad look.

"Is something wrong?" she asked her.

Li Niang glanced at her and some tears began to appear "S-She's hurt, Big sis Kumiko is hurt"

Koneko could only wide her eyes at that "What happened?"

"S-She's in the hospital" sobbed the Chinese girl.

Koneko frowned at this, how could someone send a fighter like her to the hospital? She gave Deven a run for his money back there.

"Are you going to see her after school?" asked Koneko, in which she got a nod "Can I come with Deven-Senpai?"

"Are you friends with Big Sis Kumiko?" asked Li Niang.

"You can say that" answered Koneko.

"Ok…" said Li Niang as she wiped some tears.

-Time skip: After school-

Li Niang 3rd POV

For nearly all her life, Li Niang lived in a monastery where she grew up and made friends with some monks there, then the devils came and destroyed it all. After that, she was introduced to Kumiko Hijikata, a nice but silent person. She appeared to be strong, too strong. But the way she came in yesterday. It shattered her heart to see her being that way. Burns all over the body, cuts and a broken arm.

"Li Niang" she heard the white haired girl of this morning, she turned with a smile, but quickly froze at the sight of the 'Girl eater' as Kumiko told her.

"Hi there" he said so casually "I don't think that…" he just had time to blink that she had disappeared "How…" he wondered with a sweatdrop.

"We should go" said the tiny cute girl.

-Scene change: Hospital-

Kumiko 3rd POV

Kumiko was feeling many things, the pain was everywhere. It wasn't just her body that was hurting her, but also her pride.

*That wasn't your fault* said the voice of Tozen *He wasn't someone who you could beat by yourself*

"What if it was someone else? Like Li Niang, or Shirone" mumbled Kumiko with defeat.

*Take your time to learn your lesson* replied Tozen before hearing the door of the room being opened.

"Are you okay?" asked Li Niang with a worried tone.

"I'm fine" replied Kumiko, looking down.

Li Niang was about to say something when two people entered.

"Are you alright, Kumiko-senpai?" said Shirone as she entered with the blackstone.

"You're calling her senpai now?" he asked with a confused tone.

"You're here" said Kumiko with a cold tone "Mock me at your hearts content, I don't care…"

"We're here to learn more about the person who did this to you" stated Shirone "If it's a threat, it needs to be dealt with"

Kumiko sighed before beginning.

-Flashback-

The man gasped before laughing again "Do you think that I'm alone"

Kumiko had a strange feeling before sensing a great presence.

"This kill is for you, Lord Ares!" claimed the voice of a man.

Kumiko turned but a blade struck her as she had just the time to block the hit. After taking a good look at her aggressor, she noticed that he had an ancient Greek full armor and a large golden blade in his hand. His eyes were yellow and he had a weird grin on his face.

"You're good for a woman" he said "But you're still a woman"

"Tch" Kumiko had no other choice but to use her Hitokiri form "I will take your soul"

The man just laughed at that "You! Beating ME! The one chosen by the gods?! Not even in your wildest dreams"

Kumiko narrowed her eyes before charging her hit with the axe, but when her Masakari Axe entered in contact with the blade, a huge electric discharge hit her. Kumiko was too stunned to see him approaching with a dagger, when she recovered, she found herself at his mercy as he stabbed her in the stomach before stabbing her in back, then the side. Kumiko tried to hit him with the axe, but he was too quick as he slashed her back. She tried to catch him, but he effortlessly caught the arm before breaking it.

"Is that it from the most feared 'Executioner'?" he asked with a mocking tone.

"Nice job Betherode" said the while haired mad priest.

"She's not even worth the effort" yawned the man named Betherode "Do whatever you want with her, I'll go pray to the gods"

Kumiko took a bomb smoke before using it to escape.

-Flashback end-

"Freed is back" growled Shirone.

"We need to inform the others about that" stated the blackstone.

"Watch yourself blackstone" warned Kumiko "This guy possess two divine weapons. One is probably the Blade of Olympus, as for the second, I'm sure that's the Wicked Dagger of Hades. He also appears to wear the blessed armor of the Spartans"

He nodded before leaving. Kumuko sighed before saying "You can come out, he's away"

Li Niang peeked out of her hiding spot before sitting next to Kumiko.

POV- Deven.

As they left the hospital, Deven sensed two divine presence. "Koneko, stay behind me, whatever you do, don't leave my side." He changed to his Lawbringer form. *CLANG* the sound of metal on metal as the two weapons collided. "You are good, maybe you will be more entertaining than that girl." Deven growled under his helmet. "You are going to pay. No one is allowed to kill that girl but ME, I hope you will be more entertaining than that crazy priest." the fight began. The two weapons clashed over and over, Legendary sword vs Pole-Axe. Deven got a parry and took this chance. "AD MORTEM" His axe turned orange and he brought it down from the top. The Greek dodged the strike and swung wide. The sword collided with Devens armor and made a large dent. Deven countered with a shove and turned the pole axe in his hand. "Non Spestes" He struck the fighter in the chest and flipped him over his shoulder. He threw a hard attack and it landed true, the greek now had a large gash on his shoulder. "DON'T FORGET ABOUT MEEEE!" Freed came in from the side with his sword but was easily dispatched By a heavy swing from Deven. "Sicut sis de monte utilis est quasi lapis" Deven insulted as they continued their test of skill. He now had an audience of three as Koneko, And Li watched from the side. Kumiko watched with an even higher damaged pride as her rival fended off the one who did this to her. Deven took this time to mock his rival as he was told he could. "THIS is the guy that beat you, my Rival? I am ashamed." He advanced on the seemingly retreating opponent. "Non Recerden es" He swung but missed by inches. They escaped by throwing a flash bomb. "COWARDS" He screamed. "Senpai! You are hurt!" Koneko cried as she ran over and pointed out his bleeding side. Now that his attention had been brought to it…..he felt all the pain. "Aaaaghh!" he fell to a knee and Koneko began to heal him. "No no, im ok. ventus secundus." He casted his healing spell. He stood back up. "Hey, Kumiko" The girl looked at her Rival with distance. "What do you want Blackstone?" He Smiled under his helmet. Before he could speak, Vali and his team showed up. "Well, well, if it isn't the white dragon, here for another ass kicking?" Vali scowled. "We are here for Kumiko. That's it." Mike held up his pole axe. "Are you sure, is the white dragon going to run from a challenge?" Vali scowled deeper, He wanted to fight but if he was beaten buy a form weaker than his current then he was totally screwed now. 'Hey Albion' 'Vali I know what you are going to ask and I am warning you now, that you CAN NOT stay in that form for longer than ten minutes.' 'then i will beat him in under ten seconds.' "ok knight, you want to fight? Let's fight, but not here." They teleported to an open plain. "Here goes nothing."

"I, who am about to awaken,

Am the Heavenly Dragon who has taken the principles of supremacy from God

I envy the "infinite" and I pursue the "dream"

I shall become the White Dragon of Supremacy

And I shall take you to the limits of white paradise

"JUGGERNAUT DRIVE"

Vali transformed into a larger, more powerful version of his balance breaker.

"If you think you're the only one who can do that then you are wrong bud."

"War, the process of turning mice into men

A blood sacrifice necessary for the betterment of those on the top.

I, am the chosen vessel to bring the peace that comes after conflict to this world.

War, I am War.

JUGGERNAUT DRIVE

Deven transformed. He grew in size equal to that of Vali, his armor became bulkier, he wielded the shield of The Black Prior, The Sword of the warden, and the intimidation that fresh soldiers feel on their first taste of war. "Ego sum vas electionis est qui post conflictus huius bring pacem in mundo.

Bellum, belli mihi." He charged the now frightened Vali. He swung his sword and Cleaved right through Valis form, It roared in pain and burst into particles. Vali fell to the ground and tried to stand up, but collapsed. Deven dispelled his Drive. "Well that was anticlimactic," Kumiko stated in a deadpan. "I know right! I was so disappointed! Uh, he may need serious help by the way." Arthur picked him up and teleported away. Bikou teleported away with Kumiko and Li. "senpai, are you ok?" She asked, "yeah, just disappointed." Koneko grabbed on to her Senpai and they teleported to the clubroom.
