Chapter 217: Defeat one of the villain bosses earlier than the original work

[Rias: Boss villain? Is Eiji fighting? Let me guess he must be helping Mio. After all, yesterday he mentioned about the plot. So in order to save Mio, he has to defeat the villain boss.]

[Sona: Actually, without your guess, many of us would have guessed it too. But thank you for your very useful effort, Rias.]

[Rias:.....]

[Sona: Oh? Your self-control has gotten better.]

[Rias: Of course, do you think you'll always succeed with your sarcasm, Sona?]

[Sona:... Even so, who is the boss of this villain? Eiji sounded excited.]

[Rias: Although I know Sona changed the topic because she didn't know what to say. I'm curious too.]

[Sona:.....]

The women in the group chat were used to seeing the two fight. They naturally ignored it and wondered about the villain boss.

[Mio: Sorry, I don't know who that is. But he's definitely one of the heroes who hunted me and is called "Shiba" by his other colleagues.]

[Kuroka: Not familiar.]

[Kyouko: Not familiar +1.]

[Asia: Put that aside. Is Eiji-san okay? The villain boss sounded strong. And Mio, why don't you contact us when you're really in trouble? If you do, we can come to help.]

[Rias: Asia is right. Even if it's the heroes, I'm sure I can defeat them easily.]

[Sona: Where is the Hero Clan's headquarters? It's not impossible for us to destroy it.]

[Lala ?: I want to try Space-Space Kun on many enemies.]

[Utaha: I don't know what Space-Space Kun is, but Lala-san. Please don't slaughter innocent people.]

[Eriri: Kasumigaoka Utaha, what's your problem? Your stomach is weak!]

[Utaha: Sawamura-san, can you please not spam the group chat?]

Before Eriri and the others started typing something useless again. Grayfia interrupted them all.

[Grayfia: Please calm down everyone. Let Mio speak to tell us the situation.]

[Group chat:.....]

[Mio: That's... Eiji is fine, he fought quite fiercely with Shiba. But unlike the other party, he wasn't hurt and I'm sorry I didn't think to contact you guys earlier. Maria even forgot about the group chat.]

"....."

Maria looked at Mio who was busy chatting with the womans in the group chat, she actually hadn't forgotten about the group chat. She could have sent a message for help in the group chat when the heroes first chased them and created a barrier so that they could not escape.

But why didn't she do it? Mio didn't know, but she deliberately didn't ask that womans for help to create an opportunity for Eiji!

Mio was a stubborn girl and didn't want to trouble others. Basara wasn't reliable enough, so she had to make Mio open her heart to someone better.

To protect them from the people who were after Mio.

Maria felt Eiji was the right person for that.

She sighed. "What I didn't do for you, Mio-sama..."

"Huh? Maria, why are you suddenly saying that?"

"It's nothing, Mio-sama. More importantly, we should thank Eiji-san later!"

"Didn't we do that earlier?"

"Mio-sama, this and that are different. I have a better idea..."

Ignoring Kurumi who was still passed out beside them, Maria whispered in Mio's ear. The crimson-haired girl's face was almost as red as her hair.

Eiji did not know what idea Maria had suggested to Mio. Above the destruction created by Excalibur, he parried the blows of Shiba who was shrouded in dark Ki.

Unlike Takashi who was already dead from Excalibur's immediately serious attack, the man in front of him was still not dead. He was badly injured earlier, but his regeneration speed was extremely fast. Just like in the original work, Shiba fought with his bare hands.

"Clang!"* *Clang!* * *Clang!*

But not completely, he was using his spirit gloves as well. Eiji knew that just like Takashi's Byakko, the glove also held the soul of a god named Raginleif inside. And it was no ordinary god, it was a High Ranked God of the Divine Realm and a member of the Ten Gods.

Not only that, it was somewhat similar to Basara's physiology. Shiba's body wasn't just human either, this person was actually a clone created from the DNA of Basara's father Jin Toujou and the genetic material of a High-Ranked Demon. In addition to possessing unlimited Ki, Shiba also had the ability to devour. Thanks to that, he had previously survived Excalibur's light saber.

Still, Eiji was curious as to the extent of Shiba's devouring ability. So after getting bored of slashing at the other party's body that was enveloped in dark Ki and each blow was enough to blow up a mountain. He put away his Excalibur and clenched his fists.

"You like fighting with fists, right? Then, take this."

*Boom!!!*

Eiji's fist contained Anos' physical strength and his physical strength as a Saint-Galaxy Human. The air exploded around his fist, the void was also shattered like shards of glass.

Shiba could not even scream, his face was hit by Eiji's fist and his body was instantly thrown at the speed of light inside a passage that was actually the void created by the power of Eiji's fist.

When Shiba thought he was going to die because his head exploded. "Corruption" was his innate ability as the only clone of Jin Toujou. A terrifying red-black aura enveloped his body as if trying to save him.

In about 1 minute, Shiba who was lying on the ground woke up with his head intact. The man's face was expressionless and cold, but this time there was a hint of fear in his eyes as he looked at Eiji who was already standing not far in front of him.

"Eiji, I admit you are very strong. Perhaps stronger than those ten gods. But you made the mistake of waiting for me to recover."

"My body is capable of devouring anything. Magic, objects, living beings, and even some of the power of your fist that previously blew my head off."

"I was made differently, I am?"

"The best punching bag." Eiji interrupted Shiba.

Shiba felt insulted, even though he was quiet, it didn't mean he was happy to receive insults from his enemy. Organic black armor that had a demonic exoskeleton wrapped around him, a pair of horns also grew from his head. His hair turned white and his eyes red, this was Reginleif's power.

Originally he was only going to use this form to assist him in absorbing the other Ten Gods. After all it was his original plan that no one ever knew about. But he did not expect that the mission to kill Mio Naruse, which he initially thought was easy, would bring him together with a monster more terrifying than the Ten Gods.

Shiba who did not want to die did not dare to hold back anymore.

He took it all out! He stared at Eiji greedily because he wanted to know how it would turn out if he managed to absorb the man!

"Eiji, I will make you regret for underestimating me. You will become part of my embrace like any other god! You will?Agh!!!"

"You're noisy. You want to absorb me for having this ability, right? You may not know, but I also have a similar ability."

"What?! No, no way!"

Shiba tried to escape from the black chains that suddenly appeared from the void and pierced his body. He tried to use his devouring ability to devour the chains himself, but it was useless because Eiji kept regenerating the chains with his magic!

Normally something like this would be impossible unless the other party had outrageous or perhaps unlimited magic power like his Ki?

Shiba once again looked at Eiji with even more fear in his eyes.

A ring with a shining black stone appeared on his finger, Eiji grinned and raised his hand towards Shiba.

"It's called the Gluttony Ring. I didn't originally have the idea of absorbing you, but your ability made me a little interested. Especially that Corruption, the ability capable of absorbing the Ten Immortals in the original work is a good addition to my collection."

"Reginleif would also be a nice bonus for one of my womans."

"How do you know about Corruption, Reginleif and even my plans? Wait, Eiji. You can't absorb me!"

Shiba shouted, he did not expect that one day there would be a time when he would feel Reginleif's feelings that he once absorbed as well.

Now their positions were reversed!

Eiji didn't care what the villain boss said. After all, the villain boss was the villain boss. Isn't it natural for the villain boss to die at the hands of the protagonist? Technically, he was also the protagonist.

After Shiba's body turned into ashes and the Gluttony Ring buzzed as if satisfied that it had eaten well. Eiji now has a "Corruption" capable of absorbing everything without the help of items like the Gluttony Ring. Although the Gluttony Ring was good, it would be better if he had a more practical version.

Not only has the ability to devour. The Aura of Corruption also functions as a deadly poison capable of diluting the body of its enemies to death. In the original work, Shiba used this ability to infect everyone in the Hero Clan. If Yuki and Kurumi had not left the Clan at that plot point, they too would have died from being targeted by Shiba. Even the protagonist Basara who fought with that guy almost died if he didn't have the plot armor.

Then there was also Reginleif, the Gluttony Ring automatically devoured the god's consciousness inside that glove. Eiji didn't have to worry if he gave it to one of his women.

After the battle with Shiba was over. He immediately teleported to the side of the girls he had left in the mini-barrier. Mio looked at him anxiously as he returned, she asked if he was alright?

"I'm fine. Let's go, I'll take you guys home."

With the sound of glass shattering, Eiji's dimensional barrier covering the entire city disappeared and they returned to the real world. None of the people passing by on the street realized that an earth-shattering battle had taken place in the city.

Basara who was actually asked by Yuki to take her to buy new clothes arrived at the scene. He looked around anxiously because while shopping with Yuki, he felt that something bad happened to Mio and Maria. It definitely didn't make sense when those girls didn't even contact him, yet something seemed to call him here.

So now he's here.

"Mio! Maria! Where are you guys?! Are you guys around here?!" Basara tried to call out the two girls' names among the crowd. He didn't see the two, but tried to find them by calling their names.

Yuki whose date plans were ruined because Basara suddenly wanted to go look for Mio and Maria pouted. She looked at Basara sadly and annoyed.

"Basara, they're probably relaxing at your house. You don't have to bother looking for them here."

From the clothing store, they ran hundreds of meters here. Yuki was actually a little surprised and felt guilty because she knew it was at this location that Kurumi, Takashi and Shiba planned to trap Mio and Maria in the barrier. She herself didn't know how Basara could know they were supposed to be around here.

Yuki was initially opposed and wanted to stop her younger sister. But knowing there was Shiba who participated in the mission. She knew she wouldn't be able to stop the mission to kill Mio.

So she could only keep Basara uninvolved when their mission started by asking him out on a date with her. This was also of course due to her own selfishness, but Basara still knew something was wrong with Mio and Maria, and left her alone at the clothing store.

Yuki followed Basara in hopes of continuing their date after not finding what he was looking for. But what she expected didn't happen.

"My house? Right. Yuki, I have to go home soon to check on Mio and Maria. I'm really sorry, but can we continue next time?"

"...Alright, I understand."

"Thanks Yuki!"

Looking at Basara's increasingly distant back, Yuki was expressionless. Although she did not show it on her face, the disappointment and sadness in her heart was huge.

She tightly grasped the tote bag she was carrying and sighed.

"Next time? I probably won't do it again, Basara..."

"By the way, where's Kurumi?"

After realizing her love was unrequited, Yuki wanted to be sad and alone. But she remembered what her younger sister and the other two men did. She also remembered Eiji's inner voice heard earlier. From the man's inner voice, she knew he was fighting with a villain boss or something.

"Could it be..."

Yuki had a bad feeling in her heart. She actually didn't really care if Eiji killed Takashi and Shiba. But Kurumi? Eiji wouldn't do the same to her younger sister, right?!

While Yuki was panicking and trying to find her younger sister. Basara had just gotten to his house by running instead of taking transportation. By running from the city center, he could cut the road and get to his house in 30 minutes.

Opening the door of his house, he immediately shouted.

"Mio! Maria! Are you inside?"

It took a while, but there was the sound of footsteps coming down the stairs from the second floor. Seeing the figure of the silver-haired loli, Basara let out a sigh of relief and calmed down a bit.

"Basara-san? You're back from your date?"

"Date? No, me and Yuki are just... Forget that, are you and Mio okay? Nothing bad happened while I was gone, right?"

Maria was wearing a loose white T-shirt with short black hotpants, she tilted her head and looked at him in confusion. Basara tried not to stare too much at his younger sister's appearance, he had to educate her to wear the right clothes when inside the house later.

"Nothing. Mio-sama and I have been staying at home since morning and we were watching a movie together in the bedroom not long ago."

"Why does Basara-san sound worried?"

"No, I'm just asking just in case... I'm glad you guys are okay."

Basara smiled, he then remembered something and scratched his cheek. "I'm sorry I forgot to bring souvenirs."

"It's okay, Basara-san. The cake you bought yesterday is still left in the refrigerator."

"Really?"

"Yes."

"...."

"...."

"...What's that sound? Is Mio doing something in the bedroom?"

Basara's ears were sharp, although he could not clearly hear the sound inside Mio's bedroom, he could still slightly hear the girl's voice that somehow sounded like she was moaning?

"Ah... That, we were watching a horror movie. Mio-sama usually likes to make strange noises when we do that. You don't have to think about it, Basara-san. Do you want to eat? I can cook something for you."

"I see... No, thank you. I can make ramen for lunch. Maria, you can continue watching the movie with Mio."

"Okay Basara-san~! But please don't go to the second floor, okay?"

"Why?"

"Mio-sama would be embarrassed if her embarrassing appearance while watching a horror movie was seen by you. You know Mio-sama has thin skin, right? She'll get angry if..."

"Don't worry, I don't want to be electrocuted by Mio anymore either."

Basara waved his hand with a reminiscing expression before going to his own bedroom.

Maria breathed a sigh of relief, there was an excited smile on her face. Just in case she installed soundproofing magic on the second floor and after that she returned to Mio's bedroom.
