Chapter 43 - The Strongest Red Dragon Emperor!

Whew~ Almost didn't make it in time to transfer.

After announcing the end of the game, Grayfia quietly exhaled.

Although ordinary sunlight didn't harm devils, when concentrated and solidified to a high level, it could inflict damage far beyond the "light" used by angels or fallen angels.

The light just now, capable of piercing space, could have completely annihilated Riser, Yubelluna, and the other devils... leaving nothing behind.

Fortunately, Grayfia acted in time, saving all four just before total purification.

Even Yubelluna and Isabella, already in incomplete bodies from leaving the alternate dimension, could be restored. For the Phenex family, a couple of tears would suffice.

No need to worry.

"Red Dragon Emperor, immense magic power, Stand, a light-based servant piercing space... Hiro, just what..."

In the dimly lit room alone, Grayfia stared at the black-haired young man on the display screen, muttering.

...

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for seizing third-Tier luck and obtaining the reward: Mangekyou Sharingan."

Mangekyou?

All third-Tier: Koneko and Asuna got Finger Guns and body enhancement/time control, Riser got a Mangekyou...

Finally, lucky once.

Hiro stared at the blood-red eyeball in the system item bar, resembling a four-pointed pinwheel or a four-leaf clover.

Counting Diodora in the undead marching, this was only the second time he had caused fatal damage while seizing luck.

Flipping himself into the activity room downstairs, Hiro immediately sensed something off.

Aside from Asia staring at him with shining eyes, the expressions of Rias, Akeno, and the others looked like students who'd prepared for a school trip in September or October, only to be told it was canceled.

"Rias, you've clearly won. Why these expressions?"

"..."

Seeing Hiro's innocent, incomprehending face, Rias rolled her eyes, lightly stroking her forehead as if she had a headache.

"Logically, I should be happy. We won easily and dissolved the engagement. But your method... makes me doubt the purpose of our hard training these past ten days."

Even knowing Hiro's actions weren't wrong, the feeling of having nowhere to use their strength lingered.

"Ara, couldn't Hiro-kun have been a little slower? A man this fast won't be liked by any girls, you know~~"

Akeno's teasing comment, which Asia wouldn't understand, contrasted with Rias's restrained frustration.

"Hiro-kun is amazing! We haven't even gone outside, and the battle's already over!"

Asia clasped her hands, admiration and longing in her eyes.

"Alright, let's talk about feelings once we're outside."

Hiro shook his head, amused and helpless, and led the way to the nearby teleportation circle.

...

After the deep red teleportation light faded, they returned to the Occult Research Club in the human world.

The moment the light vanished, everyone noticed a female devil standing a few meters ahead.

Grayfia Lucifer, in her black-and-white maid outfit, the referee who had ended the match, stood there with a cold expression.

"Grayfia? Why are you here?"

Rias's confusion was clear.

"Rias-sama, I have an important matter to confirm with Hiro-sama, who is beside you."

Grayfia bowed slightly to Rias, her tone formal.

"Hiro?"

Rias muttered inwardly, hoping she was mistaken.

A hint of astonishment flashed across her eyes as she looked at the silent Hiro.

Not just Rias-Akeno, Asia, Koneko, and the others also stared, unable to fathom Grayfia's purpose.

Big shot... what could you want from me?

Hiro blinked twice, bewildered.

In this game, he had only shown the Boosted Gear and a BETA. The former, though rare, had appeared before. The latter... even if devils knew of the BETA, it shouldn't warrant Grayfia personally showing up.

"Hiro-sama, the crimson armor you just used-is that the Boosted Gear, one of the thirteen Longinus?"

"That's right."

Hiro answered without hesitation.

"Boosted Gear?!" X3

Turning toward the shocked exclamations around him, he frowned.

"What's wrong? It's just a Longinus... is it worth this surprise?"

Seeing Rias and the others' shocked expressions, he scratched the back of his head, puzzled.

Grayfia spoke, answering his unspoken question:

"The current Red Dragon Emperor is a woman born over fifteen hundred years ago. She has defeated generation after generation of White Dragon Emperor hosts. She is undoubtedly the 'Strongest Red Dragon Emperor.' She is also my Queen."

Hiro turned toward the calm-faced Grayfia, bewildered.
