What he wanted to do right now was rip the bitch who killed him to shreds! He took a deep breath, calming himself down from that thought. He couldn't allow his Wrath consume him if he wanted to use it successfully.
He had been ignoring the conversation and the new arrivals as he focused solely on his Sin. 'This is gonna be fun!' Lelouch thought to himself as an evil grin split his face for the first time in quite some time.
"Hey, blondie!" Lelouch drew attention to himself for the first time since they arrived in the forest.
"Who're you callin' blondie you Devil wannabe? The name's Mittelt." The blonde Fallen who Lelouch already marked as dead spoke to him. "Wait, didn't I kill you a while ago? Oh, that's right, you're that weak human who couldn't even see me move!" Mittelt laughed loudly.
"You really are a Devil wannabe now! Why did Gremory bring back your useless ass?" She shook her head before unveiling her wings.
"That's not important. I may be little, but I can pack a mean punch. I'll just kill you again and be done with this."
"Rias, you will let me handle her." Lelouch ordered, his eyes closed as he capped the power increase he got from his Wrath at a little over double his base strength.
His control wasn't good enough to get it to the exact point he wanted.
"I'm going to murder her." He announced his ferocious tone striking a spark of fear in the Fallen Angel he was targeting.
And, incidentally, a spark of excitement in Akeno as she beheld his rage in all its glory. 'Oh my, things are going to be so much more fun with him around.'
She thought to herself as she licked her lips. He was a natural sadist, she could tell. 'How exciting!' She thought to herself, giggling.
Lelouch's Devil wings flared and he took off, eyes still closed, tackling Mittelt into a different area of the forest.
He left the other two to the hands of Rias and Akeno, they were stronger than him, they could handle themselves.
He wanted to handle the one who killed him alone.
"Ha, look at you!" Mittelt taunted him. "You're so scared you can't even open your eyes!"
Lelouch grinned madly, before revealing his Power of the King. "Who's afraid now?" Lelouch responded with a growl in his voice, crimson eyes flashing as his Wrath brought his power to its current peak.
He felt the Sin pressing down on his mind, urging him to slaughter everything around him, but he maintained control for now. And all that Wrath was focused solely on the Fallen Angel before him. He chuckled darkly.
"The only one who needs to see what I'm going to do to you… is me." He whispered, allowing his power to manifest in the air around him.
"The name is Lelouch vi Britannia, Knight of Rias Gremory, and your death." He declared as a twisting cloud of Void energy flashed around Lelouch's body in an explosion before coalescing around his right arm to his confusion.
He had been planning on using an aura of power to boost his spells and protect him somewhat from his enemy's attacks, not whatever this was.
The dark energy formed into a gauntlet that he had never seen before around his right arm.
It had segmented plate armor with an obsidian gem on the back of the hand, the fingertips were curved like claws, and it went up to about his elbow. It kind of reminded Lelouch of a dark version of Issei's Sacred Gear only less draconic.
He flexed his hand, noting how it felt like a second skin, only more numb. So, this was what happened when he unleashed his power fully instead of keeping it internalized to use spells and increase his overall durability.
Interesting. He had expected something more similar to what happened to Akeno, not this strange result. Still, it's not like he couldn't use this.
The Wrathful Knight decided to experiment with the unwilling test subject before him.
Lelouch pointed at the blonde soon to be corpse in front of him with his newly clawed hand, who was still frozen in fear. "Void Shot." He ordered his attack and it blasted forward far faster and at far less of a cost than he remembered.
The dark gauntlet launched the sphere of Void like a bullet and the Fallen Angel could only just jump out of the way, though she didn't escape perfectly.
"My hair!" The Fallen Angel shrieked as he severed one of her ponytails. "You'll pay for that wannabe Devil!" She took off, manifesting a light spear before thrusting forward.
Lelouch dodged the telegraphed strike using his Knight's speed and spun around, using his sharp claws to slash down the blonde's back, carving five deep cuts through her skin.
She screamed in pain and Lelouch jumped back, dodging her spinning slash as she twisted around to retaliate, but he still wasn't used to his strength and his jump ended up forcing him back into a tree, back first.
He grunted in pain, before holding up his gauntlet again. "Negate." His shield blocked the thrown light spear far easier than Lelouch had expected, not costing any more than ten percent of his energy to block.
He could almost feel his power growing as a result of this battle.
After he allowed the shield to fade, he charged the Fallen Angel again, using his wings to take him off the ground as she rose in the air to try and dodge. He flew up into the air, tracking her as she fled through the sky.
It took ten minutes before he saw an opening after she hit a red barrier that prevented her from going any further. Her distraction cost her.
Mittelt shuddered in pain, having stopped for a moment to try to break the strange red barrier in front of her and escape from the terrifying Knight attacking her.
She noticed she failed, and the blonde looked down to see the gauntlet exiting the center of her chest.
The instant she hesitated, he had stabbed her straight through her back with his claws. Almost his entire forearm had pierced through her sternum.
