Gilgamesh in DxD

Chapter 282



Chapter 282

"How quick" said the surprised Greek hero.


"I guess that would be expected from one who was considered the only equal to the King of Heroes" commented Merlin.


For Enkidu it had been simple to locate everyone, the clay being possessed a skill called [Presence Detection] that allowed him to sense the presence of other beings, it makes Enkidu a subsystem that allows him to become one with the world and identify anything out of place.


Thus he can easily identify any enemy, Enkidu's detection ability surpasses even Gilgamesh's.


"Then let's begin" said Achilles getting everyone's attention.


The Greek hero put two fingers to his mouth as he whistled as loud as he could.


The heavens resounded in lightning and thunder and an immense bolt of lightning fell beside Achilles.


As he disappeared a beautiful carriage with three fine horses pulling it was revealed.


That was one of Achilles' Noble Phantoms, his [Troias Tragōidia], the horses consisting of two divine horses granted by the sea god Poseidon and the famous horse that Achilles stole from a city. It was Achilles' chariot as a member of the Rider class. With this Noble Phantasm, Achilles trampled the battlefield with speed. The increase in speed is also proportional to the increase in damage dealt. At its highest speed, it can be compared to a giant lawn mower. In return for the power granted by the chariot, the amount of mana consumed is enormous.


Although this was no longer a problem for Achilles, especially with his current master.


Achilles in one leap climbed on top of his chariot while grabbing the reins.


"So where are the enemies?" asked Arturia approaching.


"The two [Knights] are coming straight across the plain, the two [Towers] are split, the [Bishop] is with Rin Astaroth and his [Queen] who are together, already two pawns are surrounding us while two others are with one of the [Towers]" said Enkidu calmly.


"Ok, who needs a ride up" said Achilles smiling.


Soon Xenovia, Arthur, Mordred and Arturia climbed into Achilles' carriage.


"Right, I'll leave you to your opponents. Next stop: battlefield" said Achilles smiling immensely.


With a swing of the reins, the horses began to move at high speed as Achilles' chariot became a flash of green that crossed the air. josei


"I think we should go too" Enkidu said quietly with everyone agreeing.


Le Fay summoned his broom and began to fly being accompanied by Merlin who had used his Magic to be able to accomplish the feat.


Karna simply kicked the ground and became a flash of red across the sky.


Valerie created two large wings with her [Blood Manipulation] and began to float with Enkidu at her side.


Tiamat spread his draconic wings and shot up while Fenrir in his puppy form was in his arms.


A Few Moments Before.


With the Nobility of Rin.


In a region several kilometers away from the members of the Avalon Faction it was possible to see the Nobility of Rin Astaroth preparing for battle.


In a region near a large forest it was possible to see Rin Astaroth and his Nobility positioned around him.


"So, what will we do Rin?" asked Esdeath approaching his [King].


The [Tower] had great gratitude to Rin, it was due to Ajuka Beelzebub that she had managed to survive, and with Rin the "Ice General" had gained a new purpose.


And she was also extremely looking forward to this battle, since she knew that her enemies were quite powerful.


"This is a hard thing to decide, the information we have about our enemy is almost nil" Rin said ponderingly.


All she knew about the members of the Avalon Faction was that most of them were in the Maou or God class, although she had a few lower ones.


All the information Rin had of their abilities was what they demonstrated at the Three Faction meeting and events before that she consulted her brother to acquire.


First came Enkidu, the right-hand man of the King of Heroes, little was known about him except that he shared the same name as the Weapon of the Sumerian Gods, and that he might be a new version of the previous one.


What Rin did know was that Enkidu was considered equal to Gilgamesh in power, and being that the King of Heroes was among the "10 Strongest Existences in the World" this already made his power very clear.


Arturia Pendragon, on the other hand, according to Sirzechs Lucifer's reports, was the possessor of an unknown Sacred Sword, but with power to make the Super Devil retreat.


With Mordred Pendragon all the information they had was that she, according to Sona, had fought and defeated Ewald Cristaldi, one of the greatest exorcists in the Church who could even defeat a Maou class monster, plus her speed was capable of taking the "Strongest Queen" by surprise.


Already with Karna, Achilles and Merlin it was obvious that they were descendants of the Hero of Charity, the demigod son of Thetis, and the Mage King, respectively, and it was quite easy to assume that their powers were immense.


Xenovia Quarta, on the other hand, was the wielder of the Holy Sword Durandal, but she was the weakest of the group, plus also Arthur Pendragon, the wielder of the Definitive Holy Sword was in the group and from what Rin knew of Lancelot, the descendant of King Arthur was on the same level as the descendant of the Knight of the Lake.


With Valerie Tepes it was simpler, a Dhampir with high magical power who possessed two Longinus; [Sephiroth Graal] and [Incinerate Anthem] two of the Holy Relics lethal against Demons.


With Le Fay she was a famous and skilled magician, though not on Medea's level.


And then Tiamat and Fenrir, two legendary monsters, the "Strongest Dragon King" and the "God Devouring Wolf", Tiamat possessed power perhaps more than the Satan class and Fenrir was considered one of the "10 Strongest Existences".


"Honestly they are such a powerful and diverse group it's ridiculous" confessed Rin sighing.


"Hahahaha, true" said Bulat laughing out loud.


"But if it wasn't it wouldn't be fun" admitted Leonidas with a smile.


"What will we do mistress?" asked Akame stoically as she ignored the noisy people in her group.


"We will beat them" said Leone smiling as well.


Akame only sighed, his companions as usual were overestimating their enemies.


Because they were all so strong they tended to underestimate their enemies, something Akame knew shouldn't happen.


"We only have two options: We fight them all together, or we split up and do individual battles, if you win you will help the others. Those are the best options for now" Rin said as she sighed.


"Then let's go with the second option, it will be very problematic and dangerous to face all of them together" said Wave with everyone nodding.


Rin then slightly increased her power drawing everyone's attention.


"Alright, let's split up and do individual fights, if you win get together and help the others. This will be completely different from the other battles we've had, it will be against members of a Faction that is on the same level as the Factions of the Gods" Rin said quickly.


[Understood]


Everyone quickly agreed with their master's words as they quickly dispersed.


As everyone dispersed, Rin, Ingvild and Medea stood side by side.


"Hopefully the battle will go well" Medea spoke to herself.


"Do you think we can win?" asked Ingvild calmly.


"I don't know, but it will be a good learning experience" said Rin smiling at her best friend.
