I Am A Villain

Chapter 19 - Power is Taken!

(Kuoh Academy, Kokabiel Attack.)

'Go and tell them that God is dead and they just fall to their knees. Raised and trained to wield some of the strongest swords in existence and yet… fall like little children to mere words.

Issei: "Your little complaints are no reason to destroy our homes and kill our friends!"

'Idiot, like he needs a reason. If you have power then that is all the reason you need to do what you want. Though he said something smart for once. Not bad, you might become as useful as Sakura if you continue this way… only in the strength department though. Your brain is nonexistent.'

Issei: "And… And I'm… going to become… The Harem King."

'I take back everything good I thought before, he is an idiot, I can literally see the b.r.e.a.s.ts flashing in his eyes like a high-speed recap. Sakura… sorry for putting you in the same league as this idiot.'

As the 'battle' continued I was genuinely surprised. How the hell did this idiot become a cadre level fallen? Did he hide in a cave until he reached the right age?

'It won't matter though. Soon our guest of honor will be here.'

And indeed he came. Making the cool entry, a white knight in shining armor, a battle junkie. Needless to say, Kokiabel was no match for Vali.

Vali: "How boring… I thought you'd putt up a better fight."

Vali flew through the air and punched Kokiable in the stomach.

Vali: "You stepped too far out of your league."

As Kokiable was sent flying a voice was suddenly heard from beside Vali.

Zero: "What a coincidence, I was about to say the same thing."

Beside Vali, an armored figure with 2 wings extending behind him was casually standing. As he spoke, his armored hand move, the fingers digging through the armor touching Vali directly and sending him flying towards the devil group, crashing to the ground next to Issei.

As Vali came out of the crater he formed he was suddenly warned by Albion.

Albion: "Vali be careful, this is no ordinary opponent. That is a monster that even the previous host could only ran away from."

Vali: "As long as I divide his strength enough he will be the same."

Albion: "Don't be complacent. His magic power is not to be underestimated, but it is only secondary… his true power is that monstrous body."

Suddenly Ddraig intervened in the conversation.

Ddraig: "Indeed, his physical prowess might compare to our's in our prime…"

Issei: "Does that mean he has physical power compared to a dragon? Are you serious?"

Albion: "Not just any dragon… a heavenly dragon. But that is not what made the previous host escape."

Vali: "What was it if it wasn't his strength?"

Ddraig: "Endurance, one of my hosts was almost exhausted to death by continuous fighting. No matter what he did, that guy never stopped coming, not to mention he is very experienced in close combat."

Zero: "As chatty as ever I see. Though it is entertaining in its own way."

Issei: "Ddraig what about his wings? I've never seen wings like that…"

Ddraig: "Me neither, what about you Albion?"

Albion: "No."

Rias: "Could he be some kind of fallen or angel? But still, his wings are red?"

Vali: "As far as I know there has been no case of red wings amongst the fallen."

Suddenly Kiba took a step forward, pointing towards the figure in the sky.

Kiba: "I thought he looked familiar!!!"

Everybody turned their eyes towards him.

Rias: "Kiba you know who he is?"

Issei: "You know this guy?"

Even Vali showed a slight interest.

Zero: "I don't think I have met you before."

Kiba: "We haven't. A painting I once saw in a church depicted you."

Rias: "You mean to say he belongs to the angel faction?"

Kiba: "I don't know about that but he was portrayed as 'The Bloody Angel of Camelot' and 'The First True Knight', the personal guard of King Arthur. I remember because of the distinct blackish-red armor and the wings."

Issei: "That means… he's old?"

Vali: "You idiot, that means he has more than 1000 years of experience."

Zero: " It is the first time I hear the title of 'The First True Knight'. Who came up with that?"

Kiba: "All swordsman with some knowledge revere you for your conduct."

Issei: "His conduct?"

Kiba: "It is said that as long as the 'Bloody Angel' was beside him, King Arthur was immortal and invincible. The king always returned from the battlefield unscathed. The only reason the king died was that his guard wasn't there on that day. Truly worthy of being a true knight."

Issei: "Really? This guy was a badass?"

Zero: "While this is all good and well, while you idiots were talking I am already done with my preparations."

Saying so I launched myself towards Issei, snapping my fingers and in the last second when I was right in front of him, plunging my feet on the ground, applying a little magic, and changing my direction towards Vali.

Zero: "Sadly I do not have enough time to duke it out with you. I need one of the dragons to get the other faster."

As Vali tried to use the power of the dragon he froze.

Albion: "Vali, watch out! He did something using magic."

'Indeed, when my first strike connected I applied the magic directly making it much more effective, cutting his connection to the dragon. I didn't spend all my years doing nothing. If you had started fighting directly you might have eventually barely run away, but now? Too late.'

As the scale mail fell off from his body, my hand pierced right through the panicking Vali.

Zero: "I respect your goal… but not enough to stop myself from achieving my own."

I couldn't absorb Vali in front of them but Albion? A piece of cake.

Sadly not everything goes as you want in this world. I could feel the movements of magic as I hid myself. Some gods quite possibly noticed the vanishing of the White dragon emperor… pun intended. Somehow the dragons might have noticed too. Where I to take the red one as well they would probably immediately detect me. I would have to gather information from my agents but I doubt I will be able to hide for more than 1 year. Maybe even 6 months would be too much.

'I have 2 last things to do. Until then I cannot leave just yet. The summit should only be a week or 2 away at most. After that, I'll need to leave this world fast.'
