11 [11]True Longinus

As the warping finally finished, we reapeared as what seems to be a wooden shed.

Nothing special-

Nevermind

Looking at the floor next to me I saw a magic circle, not just any magic circle but a devil magic circle.

Shit I need to get out of here!.

The door of the shed suddenly swung open, revealing 4 men along with a child with chains on him.

"Huh?, whats this brat doing here?"

"I don't know but he's carrying two other kids. Let's take them to Lord Astaroth, I'm sure he will be pleased" said one of them with a grin.

I put down Valerie on the floor and Gasper "I'll take care of them real quick, protect her"

"I-I'll do my best" he nodded, at least I was right about him growing some balls when it came to Valerie.

As the four men surrounded me holding swords and spears, I took out [Chastiefol] and took a stance.

That seemed to alarm the men.

"The brat has a spear, be carefull"

The first man immediately strikes with his spear at me, it was slow and sloppy. As expected from someone who works with under a devil.

*Clang*

I parried with the tip of Chastiefol, and counterattacked.

He managed to block with the shaft of his spear just barely since my speed is higher than his.

As I was engaged in a fight with the spear user, I felt danger coming from my sides.

I immediately jumped up allowing the two other spears and a sword to strike under me.

I immediately kicked down with all my strength snapping the spears and swords.

The three spear wielders looked at me in shock, after all how could some random kid snap an iron spear in half with a single kick.

Taking advantage of their shocked state, I swung around my spear in a circle.

The sword guy and one of the spear guys managed to step back in time tough I managed to cut the heads of two of the other guys.

"Fucking die!" It seemed like they were both getting desperate as they raised their hands.

Magic circles appeared as they seemed to be casting spells.

I stomped my foot activating [Ice], ice manifested under me and quickly cought the two guys, encasing them in a coffin of ice.

"Well that was easy" I couldn't help but mutter.

Could I have killed them earlier?

Yes.

But I couldn't use anything big due to Valerie and Gasper being here.

That's why I activated Hersher ice the moment they started casting magic.

'now then to the next problem's I looked at the kid they had brought. Probably a sacrifice to this Astaroth guy.

I should probably bring him back to the orphanage of he doesn't have any family.

I walked towards the blue haired kid, well I'm a kid but he seemed younger.

"Yo whats your name?" I asked casually.

He seemed to come out of a trance as he looked at me in the eyes.

"M-my name is Cao Cao" he said in Chinese.

Luckily for me I could understand him due to me learning a few languages because I was bored.

Perks of being smart-

Wait did he say Cao Cao!?.

[A/N:Cao Cao had another name before Wukong told him that he was descendant of Cao Cao later taking the name, but they never mentioned his real name]

Holy shit, I got myself another Longinus, and the top one at that.

I wonder if heet Wukong yet or perhaps he never did in the first place due to this universe being an AU.

"Cool name, I'm Otto Apocalypse" I introduced myself with a smile.

He still seemed weary of me, probably becuase I just killed his capturers.

"T-thanks?" He seems confused at my compliment

"Alright I'll get straight to the point, do you want me to take you back to your parents?" His whole body flinched at the mention of his parent.

If the lore is right then the reason he was here was because his parent sold him to the slave traders.

"No!" He said with a face full of anger.

"I see, then what are you going to do now?"

"...I don't know"

"You dont know?, if that's the case then why not come with me?" I offered.

He looked at me with a skeptical eyes, smart for a child.

"Look Cao Cao, I don't know what you've been through or what has happened leading to this point. But one thing I can tell is that you have potential"

"Potential?" Those words seemed to have struck a cord in him.

"Yup the potential to kill gods"

His eyes went wide in shock, killing gods isn't a simple matter after all.

And some random boy telling you that you have the potential to do so would shock me to.

"B-but how?. I'm weak, I don't have anything, even my own parents threw me away for some money!" It seems like his parent did a number on him.

"Fufu, if that's the case then let me show you your worth. Hold out your hand and imagine a beautiful spear appearing in your hand" there really was no other way to summon True Longinus from what I know.

And if he isn't aware of it then it means that he never met Wukong.

Holding out his hand he closed his eyes and focused.

*Shin*

A bright light appeared on his hands, extending into a spear Wich soon became True Longinus.

He opened his eyes wide as he looked at the beautiful spear in his hands "Woah..."

Woah indeed. Tough it does hurt a bit when looking directly into it, it's probably because of the huge amounts of holy energy coming from it.

"Cool right?, it's called [True Longinus] on of the thirteen original Longinus sacred gears"

He stoped looking at the spear and asked

"Sacred Gear?"

With a sigh I spoke "well it's a long story. But t one thing I can tell you right now is that I can help you become strong, controll you Sacred Gear, and above else...a new family" As I expected, when I mentioned family his eyes showed a spark.

"Family?"

"Yup, I'm an orphan you see, so I don't have a mom or dad. Instead I'm family with my friends in the orphanage back home"

"...C-can you really help me?" It was an obvious cry for help, what he's been through so far must have been horrible since all that caused him to hate all supernatural kind in the anime. Cao Cao literally dedicated his life to the its eradication.

"Yes" I held out my hand to him.

And he took it.

Hehehe now I have the top two Longinus user in my hands!!!

I should probably go to Japan soon to steal Issei's [Boosted Gear].

Normally you wouldn't be able to take the sacred gear from someone, there is a method but it kills the user.

But there is another way.

Valerie.

Her expertise in souls should make it possible to remove it from him and take it without killing him.

But for that I'll have to do my best to wake her up from her coma, or at least wait until she does.
