Chapter 1005: Sacred Gear Resonance

Kuo Academy, Occult Research Club.

"Ugh—"

Hyoudou Issei, who was looking at the flyer in front of him, suddenly clutched his right hand; he felt as if something wanted to break out from within his right hand.

"What's wrong, Issei?" Seeing Hyoudou Issei's state, the others in the research club gathered around almost simultaneously.

"It's nothing, just a feeling, like something wants to come out from inside my arm!" A look of pain appeared on Hyoudou Issei's face.

"Something wanting to come out, could it be, a Sacred Gear?" Rias Gremory's gaze fell upon Hyoudou Issei's arm, a flash of astonishment crossing her eyes.

On Hyoudou Issei's arm, something resembling an arm guard seemed to be flickering in and out of existence, but for it to fully manifest, it seemed something was still missing.

"Is this, a resonance of a Sacred Gear, or has something stimulated the Sacred Gear, making it want to manifest?" A flash of bewilderment crossed Rias Gremory's eyes. "But, in this city, what could possibly stimulate the Sacred Gear hidden within Issei?"

Because Hyoudou Issei's Sacred Gear had not yet manifested, those present still did not know which Sacred Gear was residing within Hyoudou Issei.

Just at this moment, Rias Gremory and the others suddenly looked toward a certain direction; in that direction, a very powerful force seemed to be rising. That was the very thing that had triggered the resonance of the Sacred Gear inside Hyoudou Issei.

"Whoa, that's truly exaggerated!" Tachiro Shirone looked at the four divine dragons circling in the sky, a flash of astonishment inevitably crossing her eyes.

"Is, is this the power of the protective charm that Lingyun gave me?" Looking at the circling giant dragons, Asia's eyes were also somewhat dazed.

"Damn it, how could something like this appear here?" Compared to the surprise of Asia and the other, the four Fallen Angels including Raynare were terrified.

As Fallen Angels, it was impossible for them not to recognize a creature like a dragon, but recognizing one was one thing, and truly facing one was another.

"Run!" This was the only thought in the minds of all the Fallen Angels.

None of them were stupid enough to want to go head-to-head with these four divine dragons. Although these four divine dragons were only phantoms, they were merely Lower-tier Fallen Angels. The aura emanating from these four divine dragons alone made them tremble; if a direct confrontation really occurred, they would not have a shred of a chance of winning!

"Damn it, didn't you all say you had already investigated everything clearly? Then why is there still such a terrifying existence by Asia's side?" Raynare could not help but roar out loud.

Hearing Raynare's voice, everyone present wore bitter expressions. How could they have known about such a thing? Clearly, there had been nothing by Asia's side before, so how did four divine dragon phantoms suddenly appear? However, now was not the time to talk about this; the most important thing now was to run for their lives!

Watching the Fallen Angels fleeing in four different directions, the Four Symbols Sword Dragon revealed a human-like look of disdain in its eyes, and then, with a sway of their bodies, the four divine dragons chased after the four Fallen Angels in four directions.

"Hum—"

Hearing only a clear sword hum, the bodies of the four divine dragons suddenly shattered, turning into countless Sword Qi that instantly blanketed the entire sky.

Before the four Fallen Angels could even let out a scream, they were completely engulfed by the overwhelming Sword Qi, and in the end, they vanished entirely from the sky.

And just as the Four Symbols Sword Dragon shattered into the sky full of Sword Qi, the long sword hanging at Kiba Yuuto's waist suddenly jumped out, stabbing heavily into the ground and emitting a series of hums.

"This, what is going on?" Unconcealable surprise appeared in Himejima Akeno's eyes.

First Hyoudou Issei, then Kiba Yuuto; what on earth was happening over there?

However, this situation came and went quickly; in just a few breaths, both Hyoudou Issei's right-hand pain and the humming of Kiba Yuuto's sword vanished simultaneously. If it weren't for the fact that Hyoudou Issei's forehead was still covered in cold sweat and Kiba Yuuto's sword was still standing quietly on the ground, everyone present would likely have thought it was a hallucination.

"I think something must have happened!" A look of gravity was in Himejima Akeno's eyes.

"I think so too; to be able to trigger the resonance of two Sacred Gears at the same time, what on earth could that be?"

"Isn't that direction the one Asia and Koneko left in earlier? I remember Lingyun seems to live in that area too!" Kiba Yuuto placed his long sword back at his waist and said slowly.

"Then, let's go and take a look; with such a huge commotion, I'm afraid others have felt it too!" Rias Gremory waved her hand, and a crimson Magic Array appeared in front of everyone.

"Is, is it over already?" Looking at the black feathers drifting down from the sky, Tachiro Shirone's eyes also held a trace of bewilderment.

"That's right, it seems, it's over!" Asia also nodded in a daze.

They were clearly four Fallen Angels who posed a huge threat to them, and Tachiro Shirone had even prepared herself for a fight to the death. But now? After the four divine dragon phantoms appeared, it was all like a joke; the divine dragon phantoms easily wiped out all the enemies, and they still hadn't fully reacted to it yet.

After defeating the four Fallen Angels, the four divine dragons circled in mid-air once, then descended toward Asia's direction. Asia subconsciously raised her hand, light gathered in her palm, and finally, it transformed once again into the pendant Lingyun had given her.

"Ugh, regardless of anything else, this pendant Lingyun gave you is just too exaggerated! Summoning four divine dragon phantoms at once, that's just too foul-play!" Tachiro Shirone could not help but groan.

Having been by Rias Gremory's side for so long, she naturally had seen Sacred Gears made from the Dragon Race. But compared to this pendant in Asia's hand, those were simply too inferior. Some dragons were even split into several Sacred Gears; unlike this pendant before her, which actually contained four different divine dragons—this was simply too exaggerated.

"This pendant, was it given to you by Lingyun?" Tachiro Shirone asked.

"That's right." Asia carefully put the pendant away.

"I see, this matter still needs to be clarified by finding Lingyun!" Tachiro Shirone nodded, then pulled Asia and walked toward Lingyun's house.

"Eh, does Koneko have something very important to ask Lingyun?"

"Yes, a very important matter!" Tachiro Shirone nodded.
