Fate DxD

Chapter 105

"The Blood Pointer, it's still as impressive and terrifying as ever." Said Demitra, still staring at the chasm left by Haruko's attack.

"Senji-kun has completely exhausted me!" Shiria exclaimed, blushing with happiness.

"Ha... I'm completely exhausted, he didn't go easy on us!" Yan Min sighed.

"...What happens now is no longer our concern!" Said Demitra. "In a real battlefield, the loser is the one who dies first..."

"Is that why you didn't react when Senji's friend went through the barrier?" Yan Min asks.

"We lost so we're supposed to be dead, how could a dead body stop a living one?" Demitra replies, stoic.

But footsteps stop them in their tracks. The three young women turn, surprised.

"So there you are..." Demitra murmured, surprised to see them.

Outside, Haruko and Inaho stare in despair at Senji's motionless body, whose blood continues to spill over the platform on which he lies. Between them, Kodai, who can barely stand, and Kodama stare at him with a look of hatred and disdain.

"Get ready, Akaya Kodai!" She exclaims, the flames around her intensifying. "Kaguzuchi!!!" She orders her invocation.

"Oohh!!!" The one sucks in all the flames around them, then blows into his huge pipe, creating a gigantic fireball.

"Forward, Kaguzuchi!!!" Kodama points at Kodai, impatient.

"Look at that haughty yet powerful air!" Exclaims the summoner, proud of her mistress.

"We didn't ring your bell! And then it bothers you?!" Kodama blushed, embarrassed.

"On the contrary! I'd expect nothing less..." Kaguzuchi throws his pipe and strikes the fireball. "From you!!!"

The fireball hurtles towards Kodai, who tries to flee, his body barely reacts. But before impact, the fireball is stopped in mid-air by a shield.

"Huh?!" Kaguzuchi is surprised.

"It's the indestructible Aegis shield! It protects its user from his adversaries!"

"Minerva!!!" Kodama shouts her name in frustration.

"You had forgotten me?! That's not very nice!" Minverva points at Kodama.

"Don't get in my way Minerva!" Kodama warned. "If you intend to protect that scum I'll have no mercy on you!"

"But of course... If it's like that I'm not going to hold back either!" Minerva pouted.

"You stopped my flame... It's been a long time since I've been so excited during a fight!" A big smile spreads across the fire avatar's face, his excitement rising.

"Amazing... her power rivals Minerva's..." Kodai murmured. "That elemental flame, it's magnificent!" He pulls out his revolver and aims at Kodama. "More, I want to see more..."

"Do you really think..." But he's suddenly tackled to the ground, his right arm pinned against his body. "That I'm going to let you do this again?

"Ugh! Usui-kun?!" Kodai is surprised. "You hide your game well! Tell me how you got here, the zone of influence generated by Minerva's Sacred Gear should have stopped you long before!"

"There was a crack in the third floor so I snuck in!" Usui explains.

"Strange..." Kodai doesn't believe a word of it. "Even if you're telling the truth, a maken as weak as yours should have been neutralized!"
