Issei, Xenovia, and Irina were searching for the stolen fragments. The sun was still hanging in the sky, illuminating the town with an orange hue. They were walking around the town on high alert. Or at least they were supposed to.

With Irina among them, a serious atmosphere was close to impossible. The chestnut girl barraged Issei with a question.

"Hey, is your Sacred Gear really a Longinus? A Boosted Gear?!"

"It is." Issei nodded. He raised his left hand and called the red gauntlet with a green gem on his palm's back. "Ddraig."

As soon as Issei called out the resident of his body and Sacred Gear, the green gem blinked repeatedly, and a hoarse voice echoed.

[Nice to meet you, exorcist. I am the Red Dragon Emperor, also known as the Welsh Dragon, Y Ddraig Goch.]

"Woah! It talked!" Irina jumped slightly, surprised by the voice. Xenovia looked at Issei's arm in wonder, trying to know more about the Sacred Gear.

"So, are you going to believe me now?" Issei asked, lowering his arm. "I can also fight rather skillfully."

"Oh?" Xenovia raised her voice. "How well do you fight compared to Hyoudou Jin?"

At the sudden mention of his brother's name, he involuntarily shuddered. He remembered the day when he was trained by his brother. That hellish day where every day only added more wounds to his body.

Thankfully, he was tough because of his Sacred Gear. If he were a normal human, he wouldn't be able to walk for a week after each training, rendering it meaningless.

Those hellish days were over; now Xenovia asked how well he fought against Jin, jogging out his memory.

"T-That's…" Issei stuttered, looking away from Xenovia's relentless gaze. "…I can only land a hit against him."

Ddraig laughed loudly in his head as Xenovia and Irina stared blankly at him.. The Dragon really knew how well Issei could stand against Jin. That person was the definition of absurd.

For a human without a Sacred Gear, his growth was nothing but absurdness. He could defeat a Phenex, a High-Class Devil, easily. Even without knowing Jin's source of power, Ddraig could guess that his partner's older twin brother was strong.

"So you're useless then?" Irina chirped.

"Huh? I am not! I can defeat a Middle-Class Devil easily!" Issei raised his voice, clearly offended by Irina's words.

He didn't know why Irina called him useless after he said he couldn't even touch his brother. Anyone would agree that Jin was just too strong. Either Irina and Xenovia weren't informed by the church that Jin was strong, or Jin showed only a fraction of his power, and they misunderstood it.

It could also be both and cause bigger misunderstandings. Issei wouldn't try to ruin his brother's plan, but he wasn't someone who liked to be looked down upon.

"But you just said…" Xenovia tried to say something, but Ddraig's voice interrupted her.

[We've got a company.]

As soon as Ddraig said that, a person emerged from the intersection in front of them. Issei recognized his uniform, and so did Irina and Xenovia. The person in front of them wore an exorcist's robe. He had gray hair and wore a mask.

He held a sword. A golden sword. It glowed and hummed in his hand. Immediately, Irina and Xenovia both took out their weapons too. The blue-haired girl took off the bandage around her sword while the twin-tailed girl pulled out her upper arm bracelet, transforming it into a thin sword similar to a Katana.

They gripped their swords tightly, and Irina grinned.

Issei, being the only one without any weapon except for the gauntlet on his arm, raised his arms up and put on a fighting stance.

"Well, well, we found one immediately. Please return that sword to us, and I will ask the Lord to forgive your sins."

The man didn't say anything to Irina's words. He only raised his hand, and the sword glowed brightly once again.

"I don't think that man is willing to talk, Irina," Issei commented.

"I must agree with Hyoudou Issei." Xenovia added. Then her eyes widened as she shouted. "He's coming!"

True to her word, the man rushed at them. However, rush may underestimate his speed, as the man essentially disappeared and attacked Issei first, the weaponless one.

A single attack came toward Issei. He immediately raised Boosted Gear to block the sword. But before he could do that, another blow followed.

Xenovia and Irina charged forward, but they were blocked by the man's attacks. They couldn't get past the man's shield, and the man continued to slash at them. His speed was amazing. Once he felt overwhelmed by Xenovia's attack, he disappeared once again and reappeared a distance away.

"What the hell is wrong with that man?! He's so fast!" Issei shouted as he activated his Sacred Gear.

[Boost!] A voice came from his bracelet, and his strength immediately doubled.

"That's Excalibur Rapidly. It grants the wielder the ability to increase his speed, fast enough to disappear like earlier." Irina explained with a serious face. "He's coming again, Issei-kun!"

She was right. As soon as Issei understood the current situation, the man appeared in front of him.

"Damn it!"

Issei used the gauntlet to block the man's attack once again. He then punched him with his right hand, forcing him to retreat. Xenovia had already waited, and she attacked the man immediately with her big greatsword. She thrust the blade deep into the man's abdomen.

However, the man was able to divert her attack. After deflecting Xenovia's sword, the man struck the top of Xenovia's head with his blade, knocking her back.

"Ugh!"

Xenovia lost her balance after she was struck. Looking up, she saw the man's sword swing over her.

"Xenovia!" Irina shouted in panic and ran toward them. She knew she would be too late as the man had already moved his sword. The blue-haired girl could only raise her sword to try and block the man's attack.

But then, before the sword made contact with Xenovia's sword, a shout came from a distance.

"Sword Birth!"

A mountain of swords appeared beneath the man's feet. Knowing the danger, the man leaped away, perched on the wall, and looked over at the source of the voice. There, a blonde boy was standing while holding a sword.

"It seems you're in trouble, Church's dog." The blonde boy said sarcastically as he looked at Irina and Xenovia's situation. "Also, Issei-kun. I never thought you would be with them, searching for Excalibur fragments too."

"Hahaha… My brother asked me." Issei answered. "What about you, Kiba?"

"Personal reason," Kiba replied, and then he pointed his sword toward the man and smiled a little. "Yes, just a personal reason."
