Strongest in DxD - Chapter 53

It was the [Boosted Gear], the Red Dragon Emperor's Gauntlet where the soul of Ddraig, the Red Dragon of Domination, resided.

Ren smiled when one of his Longinus manifested.

"Balance Breaker," Ren said calmly.

An intense red light glowed from the [Boosted Gear] as they fully clustered around Ren's body as Ddraig's power was released along with the voice of the Celestial Dragon of Domination.

[Welsh Dragon Balance Breaker]

In a red light that covered the entire sky, the world glowed as the power of the Red Dragon Emperor of Domination was unleashed.

In an instant, Red Dragon armor with green jewels formed all over Ren's body protecting him and increasing his power and physical attributes.

This is Longinus' Balance Breaker [Boosted Gear] was [Boosted Gear Balance Breaker: Scale Mail].

In this form Ren had the ability to use [Boost!] whenever he wanted, without having to wait the ten seconds.

Ren's immense oppressive aura took over the entire region as Vali widened her eyes as she felt the immense aura that the human in front of her radiated.

Even Vali's Juggernaut Drive aura looked nothing compared to Ren's Balance Breaker.

Ren then took a step and advanced.

Vali didn't have time to react when Ren appeared in front of her with his fist raised, the Sekiryuutei then punched Vali's body.

[Penetrate!]

Ren's fist collided with Vali, the Sekiryuutei's fist was immersed in a large red aura that slammed into Vali's body while easily destroying Vali's armor.

The Hakuryuukou bowed while spitting blood and his armor was totally destroyed.

Ren recoiled as he watched Vali fall to the ground spitting blood in large amounts as he hadn't even managed to keep his Juggernaut Drive active.

To Ren it came as no surprise, only in his basic form he was able to easily rival the physical strength of Sirzechs who was the strongest of the Maou.

So now that he was using Balance Breaker with his [Boosted Gear] his strength was just overwhelming, in fact Ren wouldn't even need his Balance Breaker to beat Vali, but he wanted to make the power difference clear.

Ren extended his right hand while undoing his Balance Breaker, in his hand came a sphere of holy light.

The light shot out in the form of four arrows of light piercing Vali's two legs and two arms.

"AAAAHHHHHHH" the Hakuryuukou screamed in pain as the holy light burned his skin.

Ren smiled to see that Vali was still alive, even though a demon was extremely weak against Holy Light Ren had used her in low amounts, to only hurt Vali.

"What will you do?" asked Vali weakly as he spat blood, he realized that the last four blows had made him lose the ability to use his legs and arms.

Ren smiled as he approached Vali and touched her chest lightly.

"[Steal]" said Ren as a dark energy appeared in Ren's hand and entered Vali's body that writhed in pain and when she left it had a blue aura next to it.

This aura represented [Divine Dividing].

When the aura left Vali's body it entered Ren's who sighed as he felt his body get used to this power.

"What did you do?" asked Vali spitting blood.

He couldn't feel his connection to the [Divine Dividing] anymore and couldn't even communicate with Albion.

Ren smiled as a small blue aura appeared on his body and when it disappeared, Vali stared in disbelief at what he saw.

On Ren's back were two white wings with eight "feathers" of blue energy, it was Longinus [Divine Dividing].

"H-How?!" stammered Vali in amazement.

"I possess an ability capable of stealing other people's abilities," Ren said to Vali's bewilderment.

The Sekiryuutei, and new Hakuryuukou had already used his [Kotoamatsukami] on Ddraig for the Celestial Dragon not to care about Albion, and he just needed to use it on Albion now.

"I wonder how Azazel will feel when he finds out what happened here?" Ren thought aloud.

"Here you are"

A voice brought both Ren and Vali out of their thoughts and turning to the source of the voice they saw a young girl with a slender, voluptuous figure with long blonde hair and sapphire blue eyes while wearing a mantle and a pointed hat she appeared to be wearing. a Witch cosplay.

"Lavinia" shouted Vali to the woman who was like an older sister to him.

The woman in front of them was Lavinia Reni a Human Magician from the Grauzauberer organization of the Association of Magicians and also a member of the Grigori, nicknamed Demise Girl and Ice Princess, who is the possessor of the Longinus; [Absolute Demise].

The Ice Princess's eyes turned to Vali and she showed mild surprise.

"Vaa-kun, what happened?" asked Lavinia approaching.

"Don't come Lavinia! Run away!" Vali shouted desperately, he knew that his older sister out of consideration couldn't defeat the monster in front of him.

Lavinia's eyes flicked to Ren as she stared at him without showing any emotions before running to him.

Vali's eyes widened as she thought Lavinia would attack the Sekiryuutei.

But what she did surprised the ex-Hakuryuukou.

Lavinia hugged Ren Katsuo.

Lavinia wrapped her arms around Ren as she hugged him deeply.

"It's been a while, Ren," said Lavinia, smiling hugely.

"Yes, it's been a while" said the Sekiryuutei smiling at the Ice Princess and also her spy on Grigori.

Ren had met Lavinia when Mephistofeles created a group to kill Ren for the damage he was doing against the Three Factions.

It was at the same time that he took [Dimension Lost] from Georg, the group that Mephistofeles had assembled to stop him had Georg and also Lavinia who is one of Mephistofeles' subordinates.

Ren ended up killing Georg and taking his Sacred Gear [Dimension Lost] and using it [Kotoamatsukami] to manipulate Lavinia Reni into making her his servant.

As Lavinia was part of the Magic Council and was an ally of Mephistopheles the Sekiryuutei had information about them, as well as she was also an ally of Grigori, and as she was close to Vali and Azazel the SlashDog had access to a lot of information.

"What is Lavinia doing?" shouted Vali, perplexed by what he was seeing.

"I'm with the man I love," Lavinia said simply as she looked at Ren with pure love in her eyes.

Vali's eyes widened as they went to Ren and flashed in fury.

"What did you do!" shouted Vali amazed, he didn't imagine Lavinia loving a monster with the Sekiryuutei, and also the indifference to Vali's own situation, after all Lavinia was always very protective of him.

Ren only smiled when his eyes flicked to Lavinia.

"I only showed the truth, now Lavinia can you get rid of him?" asked Ren to Vali's great horror.

The Ice Princess smiled as she waved, and quickly turned to Vali as she pointed her magic wand.

"Bye Vaa-kun" said Lavinia, summoning her magic.

With a single nod from Lavinia a sphere of fire rushed at Vali who could only scream in pain as his body was completely incinerated and died for the person he considered an older sister.

Seeing her work done, Lavinia smiled and turned to Ren as she hugged him.

The Sekiryuutei wasn't surprised by Lavinia's coolness in killing Vali, someone she would never hurt and would be willing to give her life if she didn't have Ren under control.
