--- Chapter 105 ---

"Clark Kent."

Everyone was confused because they had never heard such a name before. Some people even have difficulty pronouncing it, like Issei and other members of the heiresses' peerage.

Freed tried to shake Excalibur from Huo Yuhao's hand, but the grip was too powerful. He tried to use the holy sword's abilities, but none activated for some reason.

"Bastard... LET GO OF MY SWORD!"

"A fine sword is important, but the wielder isn't good enough." Huo Yuhao casually lifted three fingers off the Excalibur, and Freed still couldn't lift the holy sword.

"King Arthur pulled his sword from the stone in the legend, so how could you not be able to lift this scrap from my fingers?"

"It's just two fingers, you know?" Huo Yuhao smirked because Freed's struggle entertained him a little. "What about this? I will lift another finger to make it easier for you."

They watched Huo Yuhao slowly lift another finger from Excalibur, but an unknown force kept his last finger sticking to the blade. And no matter how much Freed added or used his strength, he couldn't lift the united Excalibur.

Valper Galilei rubbed his eyes in shock because a regular human shouldn't be able to touch Excalibur. People such as exorcists needed the Holy Element naturally or embedded into their bodies to wield the holy sword.

However, looking at how casually the unknown young man named Clark Kent touches the Excalibur's blade makes Valper speechless.

"Quite a boring sword, I would say." Huo Yuhao applied Armament and Conqueror's Haki into his index finger, pressuring the Excalibur with his powerful will.

Huo Yuhao could hear a faint cry from the united Excalibur, which was the Voice of All Things' effect. The holy sword is crying in sadness because the wielder was someone who didn't deserve glory.

"I'll end your misery."

Crack!

CRACK!!

"..." Freed.

"..." Valper.

"..." Kokabiel.

What's Excalibur? Excalibur is one of the four Holy Swords forged through means of magic and alchemy by those who have reached the territory of God. It's one of the two Holy Swords wielded by the Legendary King of Britain, King Arthur Pendragon.

Even though the united Excalibur is pieces of the original sword merged back together. It still holds some of Excalibur's former power, having destruction potential beyond mortal standards.

Clank~!

Yet, the falling metal noise echoes in the area, and everyone watches the broken upper blade of the united Excalibur bounce a few times on the ground.

'Save our friend, please!' A series of voices suddenly came to Huo Yuhao's ears.

'We don't wish for anything, but Yuuto deserved to live longer.'

'He had gone through a lot!'

[Ding! You have received a quest]

[Name: Wronged Children's last wish]

[Objective: Save Yuuto Kiba's life(0/1)]

[Reward: Sacred Gear: Blade Blacksmith, 5 Silver Upgrading Tickets]

[Do you want to accept the quest?]

[Penalty: You'll receive Heartless Bastard's Title]

[Yes/No]

Huo Yuhao's mouth twitched a little when reading the penalty. He looked at the sources of the voice and located the diamond-shaped crystal on the ground, which was tossed by Valper Galilei a few moments ago.

"It must be nice to have such caring friends." He used Ruler Authority and made the crystal float to him, catching it with slight amusement. "Well, I have quite a big family."

"Right, everyone?"

Huo Yuhao called over Tian Meng, Bing Di, Eluxia, and Helena within his spiritual sea. He could hear the Skydream Ice Worm and Ice Emperor's denial, knowing deep down they cared for him. Eluxia is probably the most honest in the group, leaving Helena, who was still growing.

[You have accepted the quest]

"BASTARD!!" Freed was furious because someone was breaking his new toy into two pieces.

He pulled out guns from his exorcist robe and shot a barrage of bullets at Huo Yuhao. None of them even scratch Huo Yuhao's outfit, a classy blue suit with a white shirt and a red-orange stripe tie.

BAM! BAM! BAM!

CLANK! CLANK! CLANK!

"Reporter's Punch." Huo Yuhao slowly balled his hand into a fist and punched Freed in the guts.

BAM!

COUGH!

Freed coughed a mouthful of blood and blasted to the barrier several hundred meters away. And because Huo Yuhao used Haki to shake his internal organs, he struggled to move and twitched like a fish out of water for a long time.

"Oy, Perverted lad right there. Feed this to your blonde friend." Huo Yuhao brushed his suit to ensure no dust touched it and threw a recovery pill at Issei Hyoudou. He could have handed Senzu Beans, but remember that Issei once took a request from a weeb and debated about a Dragon Ball parody.

There is also a parody character of Ash Ketchum guarding the magical forest for familiars if Huo Yuhao wasn't wrong.

Issei caught the green-looking pearl with his hand and hesitantly looked at Huo Yuhao. Even though he didn't feel a bad intention, he couldn't help but frown in suspicion.

"Do it, Issei." Ddraig's voice comes from the Boosted Gear.

"That thing in your hand is a miraculous drug and much better than Phoenix Tear."

"R-Realy?" Issei returned nervously.

Ddraig was annoyed with his host's indecisiveness and answered, "Yeah, now give it to Yuuto and save him from critical condition."

Issei nodded firmly after hearing the Red Dragon's replies, running toward Yuuto with all his might because he couldn't let Cerberus chase him.

"Boost!"

"Do you think I would let you go?" Kokabiel's eyes become red because this brat named Clark Kent dares to ignore his presence. He created a massive light spear and launched it at Issei.

Huo Yuhao grabbed a random pebble with Ruler Authority and flicked his finger, sending the small stone with enough force to blow Kokabiel's attack away.

BOOM!

"Y-YOU!" Kokabiel moved his gaze to Huo Yuhao.

"WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?!"

Huo Yuhao shrugged and replied, "Well, someone is deaf. I've said that my name is Clark Kent."

"A young reporter from Ligma Corp."

As Issei fed Yuuto a Recovery Pill, Huo Yuhao heard a notification from Evo and smiled inside because the reward wasn't too bad.

[You have completed the quest]

[Do you want to form a connection with Blade Blacksmith?]

[Yes/No]

Huo Yuhao pressed Yes and waited 3 seconds for the sacred gears to appear within his soul space. Unlike the Spiritual Sea, this place is where Huo Yuhao formed a contract with Eas six years ago. And Eas is not the only item he formed a bond with over the past six years.

[Ebony Arm Shrouds]

"Hehe..."

"Hehehe!"

Everyone watched the blue-haired young man solemnly because he oddly became quiet. A sinister chuckle escaped his mouth, which made them shiver for some reason.

Except for one person, Kokabiel, who has been eyeing Huo Yuhao like he was his mortal enemy.

"This humiliation..."

"I'll pay it with your life." He created several massive lances made of light elements.

'Evo, show me my upgrading tickets.' Huo Yuhao ignored Kokabiel because upgrading Blade Blacksmith is more important now.

[Upgrading Tickets: Silver(79), Gold(14), Platinum(1)]

'Hmm... Convert all of them to a higher grade.'

[Converting...]

[Upgrading Tickets: Silver(9), Gold(1), Black Gold(2), Platinum(1)]

"Evo, use one Black Gold Upgrading Ticket on Blade Blacksmith."

[Using 1 Black Gold Upgrading Ticket on Blade Blacksmith]

[Upgrading...]

[High Roller activated]

[...]

"DIE!" Kokabiel bombarded the area with his attacks.

The heiresses gulped in worry and created several layers of barrier to protect themselves, hoping none of their friends would get killed by Kokabiel's attack.

Valper's complexion becomes pale when seeing this scenery because he is also in the range of attack. "W-Wait! It's not what we agreed to in the contract, Kokabiel-sama!" He yelled but received no response.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Several gigantic lances shook the Kuoh Academy, causing a massive earthquake and storm that swept the area in chaos.

"KYAAAA!"

"SAVE MY LIFE!"

"NO, MY BOOB!"

"I CAN'T DIE HERE. I STILL WANT MY HAREM!!"

A series of terrifying voices rank in the area until a bright white light appears before their eyes.

...

"What's this light..." Rias Gremory looked at the field while squinting her eyes.

"It's warm..." Akeno commented while licking her lips. "Such a holy power, but how could a devil like me wasn't affected by it?"

Gabriel was stunned on the rooftop and slowly covered her mouth in disbelief because this wasn't just holy power.

"Father, have you finally returned? The throne of heaven is waiting for you..." She whispered while tearing up a little.

"This isn't holy power," Grayfia said with a solemn expression.

[Blade Blacksmith(S) upgraded to Great Apostle's Creation(SSS)]

A blue-haired young man with classy black-framed glasses stood in the destroyed area. Weirdly, only the ground below his shoes was still intact from Kokabiel's attack.

"Ex-Caliburn." He said while lifting a sword. This sword makes every sword they have seen pale in appearance.

It's a long sword with a pure white blade, gold guard, and a bluish-red handle wrapped in the finest silk. Its beauty makes Valper drop onto the floor because such a thing shouldn't exist in this mortal world.

[Dark Avenger Class was in effect]

[Pagma Incarnation Class was in effect]

Kokabiel was dumbfounded because the sword in the young man's hand felt familiar. "No! There is no way!" He shouted in fear.

"Where was your arrogance before, Kokabiel?" Huo Yuhao lowered the Ex-Caliburn into a slashing motion. "Don't tell me you're afraid?"

"I have never attacked you once in this encounter, but since you attacked me first..."

"I'll gladly repay it."

Kokabiel tried to run away because he couldn't see a way to win against this monster. Yet, his movement was "suddenly." sealed by something.

"Pagma Sword Dance: Restraint."

Huo Yuhao's sword emitted a holy aura that swept the Kuoh Academy in glorious might. Several shouts of encouragement from nature flow to him, causing the pure white blade to become golden.

"Kokabiel..."

"Take this."

"EX-CALIBURN!" Huo Yuhao swung the sword and blasted a concentrated energy slash at Kokabiel, covering the sky with golden particles.

BOOM!

"ARRRGGGHHHH!"
