Bab 182: Chapter 182 – Testing Incinerate Anthem
"Shirone." I called out to Shirone, and she looked at me while tilting her head.
"If anyone asks where I am, tell them that I am in a mountain."
"What mountain?" Asked Shirone.
"The one behind Kuoh Academy. I turned that place into my training place."
"Un, okay. I will tell Kuroka nee-sama about that."
"Thanks." I raised my hand at her and then teleported to the mountain behind Kuoh Academy.
Spreading my senjutsu to feel whether there was anyone here, I found no one in particular. Even Sona and her peerage were not in Kuoh Academy.
The Satans must've called them to prepare for the friendly competition.
Young Devils would be asked to come too, huh? That would be the best choice for them.
From what I knew, even the Church was preparing their best fighter as well as their new exorcists to join the friendly competition.
The ones who had no such thing were us, youkai. There was no young youkai in my Hyakki Yakkou. Only I was the part of the new generation.
Well, enough of that. I put a barrier around the mountain so no one could enter.
There were two things that I wanted to try. I felt like I had achieved Balance Breaker once I absorbed Incinerate Anthem earlier.
So, I wanted to test it after trying Incinerate Anthem. If I remember correctly, Incinerate Anthem was a Holy Fire and was considered one of the Holy Relics. It was the Holy Cross that crucified Christ.
This Longinus was an independent-Avatar type similar to Regulus Nemea, which was bound to Sairaorg.
Now, the ability of the Incinerate Anthem was to control Holy Fire that could slay Ultimate-class and even Satan with ease.
This was good. I now had the Holy element to eliminate the rest of the Khaos Brigade as well as that sly Lucifuge who was still hiding in wherever he was right now.
"Well, let's try it."
I tried to call upon Incinerate Anthem's power as I raised my right hand. It was a bit hard to call it, but then I succeeded.
A purple flame appeared from my palm and floated slowly. Finally, it formed a ball, and it moved following my command.
I tried to make it shaped like a sword, and it complied. It formed a normal long sword-shaped fire.
"Woah, this is cool."
I played around with the fire a little. Incinerate Anthem was so convenient and could be shaped into anything. I now had a lot of ideas on how to utilize this Sacred Gear.
But now, I should test something again.
I called Nenekirimaru in my right hand and created the fire in my left hand. The experiment that I wanted to try was combining Incinerate Anthem with Nenekirimaru.
"Can I do it?"
Nenekirimaru had a special characteristic that cut any supernatural power. While Incinerate Anthem was a holy fire that could take any form or be imbued to any weapons, I had no confidence whether it would work on Nenekirimaru or not.
This was honestly a gamble. If it worked, then it would be the best. If it didn't work, I could try to imbue Incinerate Anthem to Garm.
I had no expectation with Garm, as the sword was a Demon Sword. Maybe Incinerate Anthem would purify Garm and make it a holy sword? Who knows.
Now I should concentrate on imbuing Incinerate Anthem to Nenekirimaru.
I slowly brought my left hand near Nenekirimaru.
Controlling the fire of Incinerate Anthem, I made it circling Nenekirimaru with care. Touching Nenekirimaru's blade was risky for now, so I tried to at least make it revolve around its blade.
The fire followed my command, and it now revolved around Nenekirimaru's blade. Step one was good; now, into step two.
I made a small fire again in my left hand and tried to imbue it into Nenekirimaru's blade. It slowly approached it, and when it made contact with Nenekirimaru's blade, it burst.
"Damn, so it's impossible after all?"
I ruffled my hand and sat on the ground. I admired Nenekirimaru, which had purple fire revolving around it. It was beautiful.
However, being beautiful was not enough. I was still in a sitting position as I raisedNenekirimaru above my head.
Incinerate Anthem could burn Satan's level devil with no problem. It should be hot, but when I touched it, it was only warm.
That was why I needed to test it.
"Tsuki Giri."
I swung Nenekirimaru down, and a crescent slash flew to the tree across from me. The usual blue slash was now purple while leaving a fire trail.
My mouth gaped a little. I never thought that only adding Incinerate Anthem around the blade would have this effect.
But, the slash was slower than the usual one, maybe because I was in a sitting position.
Although it was slower than the usual one, it was still faster than Issei's dragon shot.
The flying slash traveled to the tree and hit it in less than three seconds. When it made contact with the tree, it didn't cut it, but it engulfed the tree.
Swoosh!
In an instant, the tree was burnt down, leaving only ash.
The power of Incinerate Anthem was stronger than I thought. Once again, I looked at the purple fire that danced around Nenekirimaru's blade.
"Nice! I did it!"
With this, I shouldn't have any problems fighting Super Devil by myself without using Matoi.
Incinerate Anthem itself was strong enough, and it didn't cost a lot of energy from me because it was sentient-avatar.
Now, there was the last thing that I needed to do. I needed to test whether I could use Balance Breaker yet.
No, I was confident that I could use it, but… I didn't know the effect of Telos Karma Balance Breaker.
There was nothing known to it. I should be prepared for the worst.
"Well, I won't know if I don't try."
Pulling myself up, I made Nenekirimaru disappear and took Incinerate Anthem back to my body.
"Let's just do this. I hope this Balance Breaker can be combined with Incinerate Anthem."
