338 Strong Nostalgia

Cao Cao thought that he was about to die, but—

"Don't you dare to stop here, Cao Cao! I will take this fight!" 

Cao Cao was suddenly pushed away before he saw a white figure that stood before him. 

"Hehehe... Lucifer-sama can also use a sword? To be honest, I am also good at swordsmanship, so let's see who is better." 

"Sigfried!" 

Siegfried ignored everyone's surprise, and all that was seen on his face was only an eagerness to show his skill. 

"Twice Critical!

"Chaos Edge Asura Ravage!" 

As a clone of Siegfried, he not only had superb swordsmanship but also a Sacred Great known as "Twice Critical." Even though this was just a normal Sacred Gear, whose power was to double the user's power, it greatly boosted his strength, which was amazing in the supernatural world. Moreover, he also achieved sub-species Balance Breaker, an ability that could only be developed after the death of God, Chaos Edge Asura Ravage. 

This technique allowed him to have four Dragon Arms growing out of his back, with his power doubling for each. As a result, Siegfried obtained four additional Dragons' arms, making it possible for him to perform a six-Sword Style.

Yet, this wasn't the end since the six swords that he held in each of his hands were special. 

"That's Demon Swords!" 

Kiba, who saw the swords held by Siegfried, was startled. 

"Demon Sword?" 

"It's weapons infused with Demonic Power and is considered to be the ultimate weapons against Angels and Fallen Angels." Kiba's expression became solemn. "Gram, Balmung, Dainsleif, Nothung, and Tyrfing. Lastly, he also wields the Light Sword, which is dangerous for the devil!" 

"That's right! All of my swords are legendary Demon Swords! Along with the Holy Sword, I will see if Lucifer-sama's swordsmanship is as strong as the world says!" 

"It's dangerous!" Kiba became worried and was ready to join the fight, summoning his Sacred Gear, but then he stopped and released his swords. 

"You talk too much." 

There was no resistance. 

At that moment, Siegfried was cut into half without being able to do anything. 

Riser didn't even think of Siegfried as an opponent. 

Six swords?

What was the use of it?

Gorgeous, complicated, or beautiful techniques, Riser didn't care about any of that since, in the essence of swordsmanship, it was just to kill someone, so even if Siegfried tried to block his sword by raising his legendary swords or whatever, there was no resistance, and he killed Siegfried instantly. 

Looking at this, Kiba knew that he was thinking too much and felt embarrassed. 

"Don't worry, Kiba." 

Saji patted Kiba's shoulder with a warm smile. 

"...." 

Kiba wondered what he should do in this situation. 

Yet, the nightmare of the Hero Faction hadn't ended. 

Watching how Siegfried was killed with a single blow, all of them widened their eyes in disbelief, and there was also anger. The rest of the members aside, those executives thought of themselves as comrades, yet facing this being, all the resistance was meaningless. 

No one thought about staying, and all of them wanted to run away. 

"GEORG!!!!" 

Everyone shouted the name Georg, hoping he would use the "Dimensional Lost" to teleport all of them, escaping from this monster. 

Yet, there was no escape. 

Heracles, the one with the best physical ability yet slow in speed, was beheaded by Riser. 

However, the death of Heracles gave everyone a chance to escape since Georg quickly enveloped all of them in the purple mist of the "Dimensional Lost," ready to teleport all of them away. 

At this moment, Cao Cao and the rest sighed in relief since they knew that they would be alright.

However, a habit was impossible to change, and Cao Cao looked at Riser smugly and in a complicated mood since he knew that he was being slandered as the killer of Azazel. 

"A fire, wind, immortality, an ability to take over the Sacred Gear or even the Longinus, and even a god-like swordsmanship that can cut anything." Cao Cao smiled and said, "But can you cut this purple mist?" 

Riser didn't say anything and just cut the purple mist, causing their teleportation to fail. The "Kama Kama no Mi" gave him the ability to manipulate the concept of slash. While he knew there was something that he couldn't cut, he knew this purple mist that he could cut. 

"CAO CAO, STOP TALKING!" Georg was in fear as his purple mist failed to teleport all of them after being cut by Riser. 

Everyone also felt the same and cursed Cao Cao for jinxing them. 

Yet, at this moment, a greater despair was about to come before them. 

Cao Cao had a cold sweat; his eyes were filled with fear when he saw Riser was right in front of his eyes. 

Die? 

Me? 

Like this? 

At this moment, a strong unwillingness was born in his heart. 

"There is no way that I will die!" 

As if responding to the feeling of its host, the True Longinus shone brightly. 

A great power burst over his body, and at the same time, everything seemed to be absorbed from his body, yet at that moment, the True Longinus shone brightly. 

"Truth Idea." 

God's will. 

It was probably the best way to describe this ability. 

Like any other Sacred Gear, True Longinus was capable of the Balance Breaker state. Still, unlike the other Sacred Gears whose Balance Breakers could be used as long as one train, the Balance Breaker state of the True Longinus was impossible to control. 

Everything was based on the will of the God that dwelled within the True Longinus. 

If it was against Issei, then the will of God would refuse Cao Cao, but against Riser?

At that moment, the world was illuminated by an intense radiance that eclipsed everything. 

"RISEEERRRRR!" 

"LUCIFER-SAMA!" 

"NOOOOOOOOO!" 

Serafall, Yasaka, Xenovia, Kunou, and the others panicked as there was only a sense of despair when they saw this light. 

This light was a miracle, but at the same time, it was also a nightmare for those who faced this light. 

It was a great power that would annihilate everything. 

At that time, the time stopped as Riser was swallowed by this light. 

Yet, facing this light, Riser was in silence as he watched Cao Cao's smug expression as if he was already defeated. Still, he lamented his fate. 

"Even God doesn't want me to be here, huh?" 

However, it didn't matter, as he didn't want God to be in this world either. 

Still, this attack might bring anyone despair as they would be annihilated instantly, yet for him, it was a chance. 

Riser didn't have a chance before as he was just crazy to stay alive, but now, this was his chance to become a Desperado. As his body was burnt by this light, the black chains on his body cracked before they were destroyed, causing the world to lose its color and the holy light of God to be pushed away. 

*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM!*

This impact swept everything, bringing greater despair to those who opposed him. 

"Thank you." 

Riser thanked Cao Cao for giving him a chance to become a Desperado, but—

"Goodbye." 

The silver slash was about to cut down everything, but only a powerful impact blasted his attack to the side, causing Cao Cao to lose his right leg. 

*Slash!*

Yet, the aftermath of that slash cut down several buildings, rivers, streets, and everything as long as one's eyes could see. 

"So, this is the power of Lucifer-sama, huh? How scary~!" 

Riser didn't say anything and looked up, feeling an intense nostalgia for the past. 

In the sky, an old dirty monkey with a gigantic staff, which was cut in half by Riser's blade, stood on the top of a gigantic Chinese dragon as he focused on Riser. 

"Lucifer-sama, I know that I am rude, but can you let go of Cao Cao? He is under the care of important people, and that person doesn't want him to die." 

Showing a fist-and-palm gesture, Sun Wukong bowed his head and begged. 

Only Riser ignored this monkey and swung his sword, ready to cut down Cao Cao.
