Duality (DxD) (Part 1)

Ch 87 - Sacred Gear Specialty

Jin took Saji home, carried over his shoulder and he was thoroughly embarrassed. People seeing Jin holding him over like a victim of an incident. Saji was a victim, of the teasing of Mittelt and Aika on the way back home. The whole way he was blushing and embarrassed, but now he was stood in Jins dojo, with Jin, Mittelt and Aika looking at him.

Saji: Are you going to say anything? Do anything?

Jin: Give me a second.

Jin said looking at Saji. Staring at him in deep thought. Slightly moving his head with different thoughts. Nodding as he came to one, unanimously self approved nod.

Jin: Pull it out.

Everyone: WHAT?!

Everyone looked at Jin as he looked confused. They all looked shocked at him. Even Aika who has known him for so long looked completely shocked and confused.

Jin: What? Can I not see his Scared Gear?

Saji: DUDE! You can't just say it like that!

Jin: Say it like what?

Saji looked at Jin about to say something, but saw Mittelt and Aika making hand gestures as to not say what they all knew he was about to say. Causing him to sigh as his Scared Gear appeared on his wrist.

Saji: Just... Just never say that to a dude man.

Jin: Oh? Okay.

Jin said walking up to Saji and holding his wrist. Looking at the Scared Gear on it. The Scared Gear was sharped like a deformed black lizard on his right hand, one with purple jewel like eyes.

Saji: If you want to know, my Scared Gears called Vritra, The Prison Dragon's Sacred Gear. It allows me to create lines which I call Absorption Lines that can absorb the power of people or things connected to it. {Those lines are supposed to be intangible to others, but somehow you grabbed it.}

Jin looked at the gauntlet like Scared Gear on Sajis hands, thinking back to the blue line that just attached to him. The Scared Gear didn't seem like it could take much of a punch, so using it as an actual gauntlet wasn't an option. It also didn't cover the fingers so that wasn't great. But the line was impressive. Because when Jin grabbed it, it didn't break so easily under pressure of his grip.

With it, Jin came up with an idea for Saji.

Jin: Have you ever seen a whip? Or maybe fights using a sickle and chain? Or a fight using a weighted ball on the end of a chain?

Saji: I've seen a fight using a weighted ball on the end of a rope. But what has that got to do with my Scared Gear? The lines have no weight to them.

Jin: Exactly. Your lines have no weight to them. As hard as you hit someone with it, it would be completely pointless. But your lines do have something to them. They attached to me. Despite its weightless nature, it still has the properties of a whip.

Jin said letting go of Sajis arm and walking across the dojo. Up to the wall of weapons he had. Looking at each one of them from those that were always there, to those he took from various dojos he fought.

Jin: Now I don't own a whip, but I do own a chain.

Jin said picking the folded chain off the wall. Looking at Saji as he wrapped one end of the chain around his right arm. Looking at Saji with a devious smirk on his face.

Jin: Now you can't use these, Absorption Lines to hit anyone. That wouldn't work. But what you can do, it not only absorbs people's energy which I can only assume is accompanied by a feeling of weakness. You can use your lines to ensnare others.

Saji: Ensnare?

Jin smiled as he quickly twirled the chain around, spinning and shooting it out to Sajis shock. Yet he couldn't dodge it as his leg was quickly wrapped by the chain and trapped.

Jin: Do you see where I'm going with this?

Saji: I...

Jin pulled lightly as Sajis leg was pulled forward and with a small flick to the side from Jin, Saji was sent to ground as his leg was pulled underneath him. With Jin walking up to Saji.

Jin: You came at me with your fists the first time we met. So you're at least confident you have the grit to continue a fight. But you're weak, a pawn. But that doesn't mean you can't win a fight. If someone can't control their body properly then it will be significantly harder for them to fight. On top of that, they're getting weaker every second it's attached to their body. This technique may require strength, but if you work out properly, you'll beat many. As a pawn, promoting to a rook with this technique will be of great benefit to you. I hope this helps.

Jin said offering his hand down to Saji to get him up. But Saji just looked at him.

Saji: {He doesn't know that my Absorption Lines are intangible. But this fighting style, no one could use it against me unless they're significantly stronger since they can't grab the lines!} You... You're not too bad Jin.

Jin: Thanks.

Saji smiled as he grabbed Jins hand, getting pulled up to his feet as they took the chain off his leg.

Saji: Now... you said other people like me. Who are they?

Saji said as Aika smiled, walking up as that was her department to educate Saji on. Though she was smiling extra wide as Jin had just made his first male friend, similar to his own age.
