My stats are up quite a bit too. In fact, I think I might be able to fight Valina right now while keeping my human form.
........
While I was taking care of the Utsusemi, Tobio and Kouki were taking on Doumon.
The "magic" that Doumon uses consists of clay dolls in the shape of men ten feet tall. Clay dolls should not be underestimated, as a punch from the doll had a strength comparable to a high-class Devil.
In other words, the doll has the same strength as I have in my human form while using [Touki].
On the other hand, its defence is also quite problematic. The spear created from Kouki's Sacred Gear is not enough to penetrate the doll's body.
The problem came when Doumon summoned a second clay doll. Tobio and Kouki were soon to be defeated.
All this happened while I was killing the Utsusemi, so I, who was putting all my attention on the monsters, barely noticed that they were in danger.
To my surprise, several of the boys I defeated yesterday were here again. That meant that the Utsusemi Agency had the capabilities to bring these monsters back to life.
In the end, Kouki and Tobio were captured by Doumon. The clay dolls had them pinned down. That's when the boy who used to be Tobio's friend showed up, the boy who attacked him in the alley.
Sasaki, I think his name was.
Doumon was forcing Tobio to confront Sasaki, and it looked like it wasn't pleasant for the boy. I had already finished with all the Utsusemi. Still, it seemed that Doumon was too immersed in his madness to even notice. Anyway, I had [Gandiva] in my hands, ready to act at any moment.
Apparently, Doumon wanted the so-called "Four Fiends" to be marked by human blood. He didn't seem to recognize that Tobio's Sacred Gear is a Longinus.
How interesting.
Two of the clay dolls had Tobio and Kouki, while the other two dolls had the puppy and the cat. The boy named Sasaki, who was being controlled by Doumon, was approaching the sword that was sticking out of Tobio's puppy's forehead.
"I...kuse..."
Huh, is he regaining consciousness?
What impressive willpower.
"He...lp..."
Seeing this series of events, Doumon began trembling.
"This is...magnificent! So he was still partially conscious to this extent! This is quite interesting! Seize them, this absolutely must be immediately reported to the staff! Since the data on artificial Sacred Gears thus far is insufficient, obtaining something like this is valuable!
...To the end, as this man regards them, Sasaki, the students of Ryoukou, they were nothing but objects to him.... How can it be that he should be capable of such cruelty? How could such an inhuman individual possibly exist?
"....Don't fu....!!"
Tobio--could not hold back his rage.
"Don't fuck with me. Why, why don't you bastards stop having Sasaki and the others assist with your research if they aren't any good...!?
Doumon sneered.
"It's you guys who are at fault for not having participated. No, it would be that group of those who fell from heaven who concealed you. Due to that, since we couldn't contain ourselves, do you think we had any choice other than to resort to plan B? For said plan, naturally it was necessary to have an abundance of young people serve as experimental bodies for the 'Four Fiends Plan'. Their cooperation was entirely necessary."
This man is mentally broken. He's completely insane, not an ounce of sanity left in his mind.
Was he a fragile-minded man who was broken after being expelled from his clan? Or was he expelled because of this insanity he's showing?
In either case, the clan he belongs to should have finished with a demented man like this.
Recalling something, Doumon spoke with amusement.
"Ikuse.....huh. Aah, speaking of which, I'm sure there was data saying that you were intimate with Toujou Sae. That seems good, you should meet her. She's become an excellent Utsusemi. I remember her!"
Tobio began to tremble when he heard the name of his childhood friend.
Ah...
Doumon, I feel sorry for you right now.
Having seen Tobio reacting strongly when he heard that name, Doumon sneered even more offensively.
"She cried out so many times in the middle of the experiment. 'Tobio, Tobio'--she said. Indeed, she was calling out to you. Surely you get it."
Tobio, lacking any words to say——violently ground his molars, overflowing with frustration and anger, as tears endlessly poured down. His eyes glared at Doumon full of murderous intent.
Sigh…
Tobio's already noticed, huh...
These guys are "evil."
I remember saying something similar when I described Azazel, but I'm not talking about the same thing.
The evil that is promoted by guys like this is far from the evil of Azazel, they are two different types of evil.
This is the kind of evil that is willing to do anything to achieve its goals, or even without having a goal in mind. They don't care about humans or anything else.
Azazel, on the other hand, focuses his evil on 'evolution'. He is a fanatic for things he does not understand, or that he understands, but cannot achieve. That's why he locks himself into his study of Sacred Gears, that's why he's so obsessed with the growth of the Longinus. He can use any means available, moral or immoral, to achieve evolution.
Is this how you feel, Azazel? Are this intrigue and curiosity what you feel when you seek evolution?
Give me the answer to my question, Tobio.
What will you do now, Tobio?
Show me what Canis Lycaon can do.
The power of desire. Sacred Gears becomes powerful if its user has powerful desires.
And I can see it.
I can see the desire in Tobio's eyes.
The desire to destroy the evil being that is holding them back, that has hurt Sae Toujou.
That intention to kill is sending me a message.
Kill. Kill. Kill. Kill. Kill. Kill. Kill. Kill. Kill. Kill.
"I'll lend you my desiiiiiiiirrrreeeeee!! You will be my [Blaaaaaaaaaaadeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!"
The pup's roar echoed with Tobio's cry.
In an instant, something dark was being produced by the puppy's body. It began to expand until it reached Tobio's body. Tobio was enveloped in that mass of darkness, and it expanded again towards the clay doll, slowly consuming it.
Together, Tobio and the cub had been released from their bondage. Wrapped around the bodies of Tobio and the dog was something like a black aura.
Extending his hand in front of him, Tobio muttered a few words.
"Pierce, everything."
Much more intensely than before the black aura enveloped the puppy's body. An instant later, countless blades appeared from the shadows beneath the feet of the monsters accompanying them, successfully skewering them!
Looking over, utilizing gigantic blades that were born from the shadows beneath their feet, the two clay dolls restraining Samejima and the white cat were vertically bisected.
Indeed, this was one ability of the puppy. The ability to deliver attacks from shadows. So long as it was within Tobio's field of vision, the puppy's blades could be grown from any shadow.
"Wh-what, what is this!? Blades from shadows!? Countless numbers of swords!? How can this be!?"
With such an intense scene, Doumon was extremely confused, and as he gazed both forward and behind, what he saw was abject chaos.
Tobio spoke while the puppy stood ready at his side.
"It suddenly struck me what your name should be."
It was necessary for their partners to have names. Tobio, at this moment, was certain as to which name to choose.
"[Jin]. You're Jin. My blade for the sake of killing everything."
And so, this was the name he had generated for his other-self.
Tobio commanded the puppy—Jin.
"Jin, slash."
Doumon summoned many of these clay dolls.
But Jin's speed was so fast that the dummies were cut up almost at the same time they were summoned. And when Jin couldn't cut them, the swords that came out of the ground took over the clay dolls.
Flustered by the sudden dramatic reversal, Doumon's face was twitching as he shook his head from side to side.
"Ridiculous! Cleaning up scores of them in an instant!? What! What's, that sacred gear!? It isn't one of the Four Fiends, is it!? Blades that appear from the shadows!? Such an ability was completely unknown!!"
Of course not. This is none other than one of the 13 Longinus, Canis Lycaon. And right now we're looking at the birth of the legend of SlashDog.
Tobio approached the man. He had no plan on forgiving him.
Doumon produced fresh talismans from his breast pocket and tossed them at Tobio after reciting a spell. But, as a result of Jin emerging from out of the shadow at Doumon's feet, they were completely turned into trash. He had been transferred through the shadow. He had already learned how to use that transfer ability from before. So long as it was within his field of vision, he was able to freely transfer Jin from within shadows. Jin thrust his forehead's specialized weapon at Doumon. His partner Jin did not provide Doumon even a single break.
"You're all that's left."
What was seen before Tobio's eyes, regarding the man who had fallen on the spot on his rear, he was creeping to try to get away. The composure from a little while ago was not present in the slightest.
"Hii. Stay away! Stay away from me!"
The man's eyes were corpse-like in appearance.
As Tobio was raising his hand, a dazzling brilliance appeared horizontally on the floor. As he watched, a magic circle-like thing appeared, from which the figure of a person emerged.
A man who was about forty appeared from the center of the magic circle and approached the shrieking Doumon.
"Kazuhisa!! Retreat from here!"
Doumon recognized him.
"Section Chief Himejima!"
Himejima?
Did I just hear the word Himejima?
I knew it, I knew one of those bastards was involved in this incident.
Hehehe... hahaha...
In an instant, Doumon and Himejima disappeared.
They're gone, but I don't care.
Doumon... Himejima... The five clans of Japan...
How interesting, how interesting.
"Interesting. To have met you, Dog."
Those are Himejima's last words before any trace of them disappeared.
"...Heh, they got away, huh."
Samejima sighed as such while short of breath.
"Oy, Drako. Your smile is giving me creeps."
My smile?
I'm sorry, but I can't help it.
"I suddenly feel like tearing a lot of people apart, you know?"

Hi guys!
Currently, I'm trying to make longer chapters. The average chapter has 1k words, but now I'm trying to make around 1,8 and 2k chapters, and future chapters are even going to contain 3k to 4k words. This chapter and the last chapter where both worth around that amount of words.
Tell me wich one do you prefer, so I can continue with that format or no. Of course, with this one I can't guarantee a daily chapter, but I will try to do at least 2k daily chapter. If I don't publish one day, the next one is going to be from 3k to 4k (or I will try to do it).
The reason behind this is that I feel that 1k chapters are too short, and I'm not able to add "quality" content to them because they're so small.
A comment and a review is always welcome.
I remind you that you can read 60k more words chapters value on P@treon!
