Chapter 115 Kokabil: Why Did Your Majesty Rebel?
Chapter 115 Kokabil: Why Did Your Majesty Rebel?
Danlei's family was overjoyed to have a little girl, so naturally they invited the neighbors out for a meal to introduce her to everyone. Otherwise, it would be troublesome if she were mistaken for a lost child and sent to the police station.
Given Orpheus's personality, Dan Lei wouldn't be surprised at all if he were easily swayed by a few words.
Presumably, the members of the Calamity Gang are unaware that their leader has been abducted, because aside from seeking power, they never actually visit that desolate alternate dimension to see Orpheus.
They don't even know how to pretend to offer some tribute.
However, Orpheus's arrival at Danlei's house is currently only for mascot purposes, as the power Danlei needed has already been given to him in that alternate dimension.
Danlei had her create fifteen [snakes]. Nine of them returned and were used to activate the Holy Grail, ensuring she could leave this world at any time. The remaining six were kept for later use.
Danlei initially felt he was asking for too much.
But in reality, this amount of energy was nothing to Orpheus. She gave it to him without a second thought and acted as if nothing had happened afterward.
While secretly regretting that he had asked for less, Dan Lei was also amazed by the sheer amount of energy within him.
If Orpheus hadn't completely neglected cultivation techniques, possessing immense strength but with an extremely low efficiency in converting that strength into combat power (even so, her theoretical combat power at full strength still far surpasses that of the five major powers), she wouldn't have been driven out of the spatial rift even if she couldn't defeat the Great Red.
However, after arriving in the real world, in order to prevent her power from being too conspicuous, Danlei still asked Scáthach for help, and together they made a rune bracelet to specifically conceal the terrifying energy fluctuations on her body.
However, just like ordinary humans, some are born in Rome, while others are born like mules. In the mystical world, talent is sometimes more important than training.
In this world, dragons are born to conquer; once they reach adulthood, their combat power is already quite formidable.
Orpheus is a Roman emperor-level being among the dragons, someone who, just by his name and not by the intimidation of energy fluctuations, can make Rias and Sona not dare to utter a single word.
Here, Danlei deliberately used a welcome banquet as an excuse to invite Rias and Sona over, in order to inform them that Orpheus was already one of their dragons.
The purpose was to get them to notify the demon.
Then, Danlei can take advantage of the time difference.
It would take some time for the demon to receive the message and for it to reach the fallen angel.
This is enough time for Cockerell to carry out his plans in Kooh Town.
By the time Azazel realized that this guy had really caused a huge disaster, it would be too late to come.
He would then ask for the method to create the artificial artifact, and in order to prevent the fallen angels from facing annihilation, he had no choice but to agree.
Dan Lei's strategy was open and aboveboard, because with the power Kokabile possessed, it was impossible for him to be monitoring him nearby. Otherwise, Cao Cao would have come to his rescue when he was fighting Siegfried.
So, this unfortunate tool is now personally pushing forward his own death countdown.
So, on the evening of the second day after Orpheus arrived at Danlei's house, Genovia, covered in knife wounds, carried the battered Irina Wisteria to Danlei's door again.
To be honest, these two girls are really tough. Their clothes were already torn to shreds by swords. Genovia's wounds were shallow, but Irina had several cuts that exposed bone.
Even so, they refused to use the curse seal Danlei had given them, and instead dragged their battered bodies to seek help.
Dan Lei estimated that they probably felt that once the curse seal was used, they would have to pay a price or be coerced, so they gritted their teeth and did not use it.
Of course, the people who attacked them definitely let them go on purpose.
Given their current state, even someone like Issei Hyoudou, who hasn't received much training, could finish them off. It's impossible for the attacker to lack that ability.
The treatment that requires depleting life force is clearly unsuitable for Genovia and Irina at this point.
Dan Lei certainly wouldn't give up his life force to these two people for no reason.
Therefore, for their treatment, Dan Lei borrowed Asia from Rias, whose divine artifact, "The Smile of the Holy Mother," possessed astonishing healing abilities, quickly healing purely physical injuries.
Because Irina was too heavy, Asia naturally treated her first.
During this time, Danlei deliberately asked Genovia, who had just had her wounds simply bandaged and looked almost like a mummy,
"Tell me, how did you get beaten up like this by the fallen angel's men?"
However, Genovya then said
"We didn't lose; it was the ten-winged fallen angel executives who suddenly made their move."
He defeated us and Kiba Yuto, who was temporarily helping us, in an instant.
Then, Fried Selzer took our holy sword and hacked me and Irina to pieces like this.
However, they wanted me to deliver a message, so they didn't seriously injure me.
After listening, Dan Lei nodded to indicate that he understood, and then deliberately asked...
"Oh? A fallen angel officer wants you to deliver a message to me. Interesting. What message did he ask you to deliver?"
Genovia looked at Danlei, then at Rias, and said...
"The ten-winged fallen angel cadre, who calls himself Kokabil, wants me to tell Danlei that he will destroy Kuoh Town to prove that you, this so-called second-level dragon powerhouse, are an imposter."
He also told me to inform the devil that Kiba Yuuto would be sacrificing his flag when destroying Kuoh Town, and that if the devil had any objections, he was welcome to come and find him.
Upon hearing this, Rias's destructive magic surged up. Threatening her with her familiars, whom she considered family, had touched a raw nerve.
Dan Lei then placed a hand on his shoulder and said...
"Rias, calm down."
I'm the one being provoked, so you can't make a move.
However, I know you're concerned about Kiba Yuuto's safety, so you and Sona can bring your families to watch this battle.
After saying that, Danlei addressed the others.
"Master, Orpheus, it seems we need to go out and show off our skills. Otherwise, all sorts of cats and dogs will come and poop and pee on our territory."
Moreover, I think there should be more than just Coca-Cola here this time.
"Rias, Sona, leave a few people to look after the two ladies of the church. Take the rest of you with you. It's a rare opportunity to perform, and I need enough people to sing for me."
After Danlei finished speaking, he turned and walked towards the door, preparing to go out and clean up the mess that Kokabile had made.
Rias left Asia and Issei Hyoudou behind because the former needed to treat the two church members, while the latter was Irina Shidou's childhood friend and was now more concerned about her condition.
While Rias had specific candidates in mind, Ao was much more casual, only leaving behind two weaker familiars, Momoka and Ryuko Nimura.
However, Genovia was clearly dissatisfied with Danlei's arrangement, and she forced herself to sit up and said...
"I can still move, I want to go too."
Seeing this, Dan Lei immediately cast a healing spell, treating her external injuries, and then said...
"If you still have the strength to walk, keep up, and I'll even prepare a VIP seat for you."
Normally, due to the depletion of her life force, Genovia should have become a weak, frail woman who would collapse at the slightest push. But her willpower is truly strong; she stubbornly stood up, limped over to Danlei, and resolutely said…
"I'm going."
Seeing this, Dan Lei kept his promise, took her hand, and transferred a bit of his life force to her, so that she would at least have the strength to walk and keep up. He then said...
"Let's go. Your VIP seat is on the back of the Crimson Dragon Emperor Draig. Your willpower has earned you a chance to ride a double dragon."
After saying that, Dan Lei walked out of the room, summoned Draig's spirit, and took Genovia as the first to stand on the platform.
Danlei jumped up behind the dragon, and Scáthach also jumped up with Orpheus.
Once everyone was assembled, Draig took off and headed straight for King's Town.
As for Rias and Sona, Kuoh Town was originally their territory. Although it now belongs to Danlei, they continue to carry out their normal demon activities in this area with Danlei turning a blind eye.
Komao Academy was not closed and continued to operate normally.
Therefore, Danlei was not worried that the two locals would not be able to keep up, and the commotion that Kabil made was very obvious.
Just like in the original story, he directly forged multiple ExCalibur fragments of the Holy Sword at Kuoh Academy, and the light of the magic circle was clearly visible in the air.
Upon seeing this, Draig charged down, smashing through all the obstructing barriers with his strength, and his massive body came to a stop in front of Kokabil, who was still sitting on the throne in the air.
At this moment, Danlei had moved from Dreig's back to his head, looking down at Kokabier with disdain.
It can only be said that ignorance is bliss. But even after seeing Danley and Draig, Kabil remained calm and excitedly spoke to Danley...
"Haha, I knew it, everyone's saying Draig has been resurrected."
In reality, it has no physical body at all; it's just a ghostly dragon that puts on a very imposing front, but it would break with a single poke.
As for you, this dragonborn who suddenly appeared out of nowhere to swindle and deceive, I hope you're not too incompetent.
Let me play with my pet first.
After he finished speaking, a beam of light shot from beneath his throne to the ground, forming a summoning circle. Accompanied by towering flames, a three-headed hellhound crawled out from it.
However, Danlei had no interest in playing with the pet. A blood-red light shot out from Draig's back, and a blood-red spear instantly pierced through the three heads of the Cerberus, killing it instantly.
The one who takes action here is naturally Scáthach. At home, she is Danlei's teacher, and Danlei is punished by her whenever he makes a mistake.
But once outside, Danlei is the Master.
Cerberus is not worthy of Danlei's attention. Since Draeg is now his mount, Scáthach can only deal with it casually.
Moreover, after making her move, Scáthach also stood in mid-air at the forefront.
Upon seeing Scáthach, Kokabil finally sensed something was wrong and exclaimed in surprise.
"Are you the woman next to Dan Lei? Was that spear the one that pierced through death?"
"No, you're Scáthach, the Queen of the Land of Shadows in Norse mythology. What are you doing here?"
However, Scáthach had no interest in answering Kokabil's question and instead elegantly ignored him.
However, Dan Lei then said...
"Master, could you please go down to that Holy Sword Synthesis Array and rescue Kiba Yuuto? My neighbor was killed by an outsider on my turf, and I'm in big trouble."
"By the way, the ritual to synthesize the Holy Sword doesn't need to be interrupted. Once it's synthesized, just retrieve the Holy Sword directly. Of course, fragments are also acceptable."
Scáthach did not respond to Danlei's request, but instead went straight to the Holy Sword synthesis ceremony below.
After all, in her opinion, the task Danlei gave her was too simple and boring, and she wanted to finish it as soon as possible and call it a day.
After Scáthach left, Danlei stopped pretending and directly pointed at Kokabir, giving the order.
"Dreig, burn him."
Upon receiving the order, Draig unleashed a burst of dragon fire without a word.
Although he had not yet regained his original power, as a red dragon, it was purely instinctive for him to gather his power and unleash flames.
Moreover, just as Draig himself assessed, its current strength is at least 80% of its peak strength, and it hasn't fallen below the Transcendent level.
So when Kokabi saw the deadly dragon fire coming towards him, he no longer dared to sit on his throne and act arrogantly. He instantly spread his five pairs of wings and transformed into a black light to dodge the attack.
Seeing his prey escape, Draig immediately took another bite and turned to lash out at the fleeing Cockerill.
However, the fact that Kokabier survived the war of gods back then shows he had some skills.
Putting everything else aside, this guy's escape skills are really impressive. His wings seem to be flapping faster than a hummingbird's, drawing all sorts of strange arcs in the air as he dodges Draig's dragonfire.
Since there were people behind Draeg, it couldn't directly chase after Kokabile and spray him with bullets. So, by standing still and dealing damage, Draeg couldn't find a good way to deal with the slippery Kokabile.
After sensing that Rias, Sona, and the others had arrived nearby, Danlei quietly set up a barrier to prevent Kokabil from running away if things went wrong.
By the time Kokabil realized that the entire academy was shrouded in a barrier, it was too late to escape; he was already trapped.
So, Kokabier pulled out the power of Orpheus [Serpent] from his robes and roared at Danlei.
"Danlei! Look at what I have in my hand! If you're going to kill me today, I'll fight you to the death!"
When Dan Lei saw that Kocabil hadn't taken the snake directly but instead used it to threaten him, he was immediately seized by a wicked sense of humor.
With a raised hand, he caused Draig to temporarily cease his attack, then deliberately asked...
"Kakabi, what makes you think this thing can save your life?"
Seeing this, Kokabiller suddenly felt there was still hope for him to survive the day, and immediately shouted...
"This is the power of the Infinite Dragon God Orpheus. Compared to its power, the two Heavenly Dragons are just large lizards."
However, after hearing this, Danlei immediately went back to Draig's back, lifted Orpheus onto his head, and then asked, feigning confusion.
“I know this is the snake of the Infinite Dragon God Orpheus, but Orpheus’s true form is right here with me. What makes you think that a mere wisp of her power can threaten me?”
After saying that, Dan Lei deliberately removed Orpheus's bracelet, unleashing the aura of the Infinite Dragon God.
Kokabier was truly dumbfounded. He wanted to curse. Didn't those guys from the Calamity Gang say that Orpheus was their leader? How come they've gone to Danlei's side now?
At this moment, Kokabil really wanted to use what he saw on the internet and loudly question Orpheus, "Your Majesty, why are you plotting a rebellion?!"
