Fate DxD

Chapter 66

A red-haired woman, running at full speed, ignoring the fighting all around her, with only one thing in sight: the warehouse. But suddenly a lizard-like man appears in front of her, facing her. She threw out her fist and struck. The lizard man puts both forearms forward to protect himself, but is still sent flying backwards by the violence of the blow.

"Out of my way!" Minori exclaims, igniting her fists.

"Ouch, you hit hard for a woman, I'm impressed." The lizard man emerges from the debris caused by the impact of his fall. "I'm Deyan! I serve One! The only person who accepted me, a heteromorph!"

"I don't give a damn! One of my students is in danger, get out of the way!" Minori dashes towards him.

"Hey, miss! Not so fast!"

Another person appears from nowhere and stands in front of Minori. Not caring, she hits him, but instead of touching him, she passes through him, surprising her. Deyan took the opportunity to propel himself towards her, swinging his fists at her face. Regaining her composure, she uses her other hand to strike the ground, propelling herself into the air, releasing a wave of flame and dodging the lizard man's attack.

She landed and counter-attacked directly, stringing together a combo with her fists, but each blow was blocked by Deyan, either by his arms or by his huge tail. He takes advantage of his scale-covered body to just ignore certain blows and try to hit the redhead, but she deflects each attack, punishing him with a blow more powerful than the last. Strikes follow one another, raining down like bullets, waves of flame exploding with each impact, heating up the area more and more. Deyan grows weaker and weaker, until he can no longer defend himself.

"Okay that's enough!" The other opponent throws his fists at Minori.

She reacts quickly and delivers a reverse punch in his direction. He gets through the blow and catches Deyan, who is completely knocked out. He walks away and puts down his comrade.

"You're not kidding, I've never seen the lizard in such a state, but your fists are just as badly damaged, I guess his scales are really effective, even against grunts like you."

"..." Minori looks down at her fists, bleeding all over. "If you're just bait, I don't have time for you."

"Minori-sensei." Yuuka appeared beside her. "Let me heal your hands."

Golden earrings appear in Yuuka's ears, emitting a powerful aura. She takes Minori's hands and emits a great light, first spreading over her hands, then over the teacher's whole body.

"Ahh..." She flexed her hands, no longer having any trace of damage. "Thanks Amato-chan, I feel like new! By the way, were you able to see anything?"

"I was able to advance to the roof of the warehouse. There was already a blonde girl present, talking to Senji via a communicator. He went inside, accompanied by someone I didn't recognize."

"Is he there yet? I hope he knows what he's doing..." Minori worried.

"Did I hear right? The sheep is in the wolf's den? That's great news! Now, my role is to keep you here until One's order. Hmmm..."

"Someone else is coming, get ready Amato-chan." Minori moves into position, followed by Yuuka.

"Hmmm, is Deyan still alive? I've never seen him in such a state." The guy in question bends down to look at Deyan.

"Bernus!" Deyan's colleague exclaims. "It's the redhead who's been giving him a complete makeover!"

"Damn it Kenzy, we said we weren't giving out our nicknames." He stands up and walks over to the two women. "Fire element huh? This is going to be an interesting match. Kenzy, take care of the young one, I want to fry my rival."
