Inner Voice: All Heroines Hear My Inner Voice

Chapter 286: Free Longinus

Chapter 286: Free Longinus

"Hey look at that! Is that woman still alive?"

After the battle ended, not only restoring the city and reviving the people, Eiji asked Rias and Sona to erase the memories of ordinary people who had seen the battle before.

The two girls were experts at this, they had done it hundreds of times and it didn't take long to complete.

Just now they were about to continue their journey, but Lala saw something and pointed in a certain direction.

They looked in the direction the girl pointed. There was a purple flame flying in a certain direction. From the color, it was similar to the fire used by Walburga.

"I almost forgot about it." Eiji said, his eyes turned into Rinne Sharingan and he extended his hand to the fire in the distance.

Using 'Bansh? Ten'in', his hand had a suction power more terrifying than a vacuum. Soon, the purple flame that was actually Longinus, Incinerate Anthem was drawn into the grasp of his hand.

The girls looked at his hand curiously, except for Rias; the girl took out her cell phone and photographed Eiji's face from the side.

"....."

"....."

"Isn't anyone asking why I'm taking pictures?"

Rias asked because no one asked. Eiji shook his head, what was there to ask?

Sona looked at Rias flatly. "Except for Haqua and Lavinia, we know you're an Instagram girl. You must want to post that photo on your instagram account."

"That's right! Sona, look at this. Don't Eiji's eyes look cool?

Rias without hesitation posted the photo on her instagram which has more than 2M followers. Not forgetting to add the caption, 'my darling' and a few dozen other words. In just a few seconds she got hundreds of likes and comments from netizens.

This was definitely not the first time this had happened, Eiji couldn't remember how many times Rias had suddenly taken a picture of him and showed it off to her followers. But this must be the reason why when he was walking outside, some people glanced at him as if they knew him. There were admirers and haters like the men who were jealous that he was the fiancé of a super sexy girl like Rias.

Many men out there hated him, thanks to Rias — as long as the girl was happy, Eiji didn't mind giving those people the green feeling.

Sona nodded, and the other girls couldn't help but chime in that the photo was cool. Not because of bias, but Eiji's face alone could beat any guy they'd ever seen. The ripple-patterned eyes with six tomoe that glowed bluish didn't help either, making him look like a handsome villain boss.

Eiji pretended to cough, his eyes returned to normal and opened his hand to show the fire he had just caught, "Alright enough joking around. You know what this is? This is Longinus, Incinerate Anthem. That woman is really dead, but not with her Longinus."

Except for Sona and Rias who seemed to understand a bit, the other girls were confused. They huddled on the side of the road, right under the tree while ignoring the stares of people who were curious about what they were doing.

[Just like other Sacred Gear/Longinus. Unless they are destroyed after the user dies, they will find a new host. Incinerate Anthem is the same, but not like the others...]

[Incinerate Anthem doesn't have a physique, it's just a purple flame that can freely possess a person's body and give them its power.]

[I remember in the original work the Incinerate Anthem passed from hand to hand. The reason I'm not familiar with Walburga is because as far as I know the Incinerate Anthem is held by a girl who is named Lint Sallzen.]

[But that was in the original work. Now that this fire is in my hands, it's useless to me. Instead of letting it go to someone else, it's better to give it to the girls around me.]

"..."

Hearing what Eiji said in his heart, they knew the man wanted to give this fire to one of them.

But except for the women out there, those who were now crowded around Eiji looked at each other. Only Haqua was staring at the fire with a twinkle in her eyes, but she immediately shook her head because who was she to Eiji? She knew herself.

The rest like Sona, Rias, Lala, Asia, Ai and Lavinia didn't look interested at all. Two of them already had Longinus, one a regular Longinus and the other a mutated Longinus. And wasn't that just the fire that Walburga had previously used? Honestly if it wasn't for Ai defeating that woman. Except for Haqua, Sona and the other girls in the group would have no trouble doing the same.

For those who had already received the items from Eiji, they were a little dismissive of Longinus.

If the people who knew about Longinus out there heard what these girls thought about Longinus... A lot of them would take offense. Who wouldn't want one of the legendary magic artifacts created by the God of the Bible? Only you guys!

"No one seems to be interested?" Eiji asked while looking at the girls' faces. Only Haqua avoided his gaze.

"I already have, Absolute Demise. And isn't it that one can only have one and only humans can..." Before Lavinia finished her words.

Sona said, "Lavinia, did you forget? Eiji can make an exception for that like he did with Xenovia."

The girl in question had two Sacred Gear inside her body.

Lavinia just remembered this and smiled. "Sorry, but I'm not interested."

"What about the others?" Eiji nodded and asked again. There was a reason why he wasted time doing this after checking the changed future.

The corners of his mouth lifted slightly.

Lala shook her head, Asia too. Ai was satisfied with her star power, and Rias was more optimistic with her power of destruction and before Sona answered.

[Sona: There's a free Longinus here. As Eiji said, this is Incinerate Anthem. Its main power is powerful purple flames and it can create avatars made of fire. Who among you is interested?]

[Mio: I'm sure my red fire is no worse. So no.]

[Xenovia: What about me?]

[Irina: Xenovia, don't be so greedy! You already have two in your body... Give the others a chance. I'm not interested either, by the way.]

[Yuki: I already have Eiji's sword. It's enough for me.]

[Kurumi: I can use the 6 elements with my spirit magic.]

[Maria: I'd rather use my fists and kicks~!]

[Serafall: Sona-chan! Sona-chan! What about Onee-chan?]

[Sona: Onee-chan, this isn't the first time I've said it, please be more self-conscious. Things like this won't be too useful for a Maou like you.]

[Serafall:....]

[Yasaka: Fufu. Serafall you can freeze the entire Underworld with your magic now, what do you want to do with fire?]

[Serafall: Mou~ I think it's good for my Magical Girl magic show.]

[Yasaka: Sona, just offer it to the younger girls. Girls like Serafall, me, Grayfia and the others don't really need it.]

[Sona: Yasaka, you're right.]

[Serafall: Hey don't ignore me!]

[Sona: Yui, Haruna. You two have always refused these kinds of things. How about now?]

[Yui: That's... I-I think I'll skip again and wait for the others.]

[Haruna: Is there any power that looks more normal for a high school girl?]

Basically refused. Compared to the other girls in Eiji's harem, the two girls insisted on maintaining their normalcy even though their physical power was enough to crush destroy all professional wrestlers in one blow.

With that kind of power, where exactly do you think you're normal high school girls?

Sona shook her head. After that there were Utaha, Eriri, Mai and the other girls. They all had more or less the same answer.

She then glanced at Haqua who was peering at the purple flame in Eiji's hand. The girl was obviously interested, but unlike her older sister, she was more self-conscious.

Even so, considering Haqua had been approved by the girls in the group chat...

Sona smiled slightly. Rias was a little unhappy because the girl with glasses seemed to want to take advantage of this opportunity to perform a wingman action.

"Eiji, I think Incinerate Anthem would be suitable for Haqua. She's using a burning scythe, that purple flame will strengthen the fire."

"Eh?! S-Sona, things like this are too precious, unlike you guys, I'm not..."

Haqua glanced at Eiji with a slight blush on her cheeks.

Lavinia's lips twitched, she was not one of Eiji's women. Haqua misunderstood her and thought she was in the same group as girls like Rias and the others. But she didn't say anything to deny what Haqua said which made Tobio's head out there a little heavier.

...

"What happened? Could something have happened to Lavinia?" Just like any other protagonist who was more sensitive than a woman, Tobio scratched his head and felt uncomfortable in his heart.

He knew where Lavinia was going, he originally wanted to come along, but people from his fiancée's family suddenly called him.

Thinking of that woman who was no less beautiful than Lavinia, Tobio thought of winning his fiancée's heart first.

But before that, he and the other Slash/Dog members had to try to push back the monsters called Evil Spirits from Grigori's base!

This was the third time these monsters had come and gone at will. Since they were hard to kill, they could only push them back and endure harassment.

Bom! Bom! Bom!

"Jin!"

"Woof!"

A large black dog with red eyes that was actually Longinus, Canis Lykaon pounced on one of the evil spirits and swung the scythe in its mouth to cut the monster's crotch.

Tobio seized the opportunity to throw black blades out of the shadow of each evil spirit.

The coordination of the man and the dog was perfect. However, looking at the point at which the two slashed at their enemies.

"..." The other Slash/Dog members fell silent. Tobio had become more ruthless lately, hadn't he? The men in the group felt a chill in their groins.

...

If Eiji knew what was going on at Tobio's side, he would laugh out loud.

After all... Put that aside.

For now, Eiji agreed with what Sona said and extended his hand to the purple-haired girl.

"Haqua, this is for you. You said you wanted to get stronger quickly to destroy the Vintage organization. With this fire, you can do it."

"But I..."

"You see, Sona and the others are not interested. Things like Longinus are also useless to me. Instead of giving it to a random person, I'd rather give it to you."

Hearing what Eiji said, Haqua could not help but be moved.

"Then..." Haqua did not refuse, she thanked Eiji and looked at Sona like her own best friend.

It didn't take long for the Incinerate Anthem to fuse into her body. From her own hands, she could emit purple flames.

Feeling the power of the fire, she knew it was stronger than the blue fire produced by her Scythe of Testament.

Haqua was happy, she couldn't wait to destroy Vintage and the other bad guys who wanted to destroy the world. Although not as strong as Sona and the other girls in the group, she became more confident and looked at Eiji with the gaze of a girl in love.

Rias and the others didn't say anything about this. They had predicted this would happen ever since Haqua showed herself to Eiji.

Shortly after that, they decided to continue their journey to Majima Seaside park.

Lala offered to use 'Space-Space-Kun' so that they could arrive faster although there was also the option of using teleportation magic.

"Okay Lala, let's use your abilities. It's about 1 kilometer ahead of us." Eiji said which made the pink-haired girl happy to be relied upon.

"Space-Space-Kun~!" Lala opened a blue portal in front of them. It was somewhat similar to Sheila's spatial passage, but from here they immediately saw the other side of the portal.

They saw the beach and the sea. But before they were about to enter, what they thought were skull accessories on Haqua's head suddenly made a sound.

*Pero! Pero! Pero! Pero! Pero!*

"....."

*Pero! Pero! Pero! Pero! Pero!*

"....."

Everyone looked at Haqua.

The girl looked a little awkward and hurriedly picked up the object above her head before explaining.

"This is a phone-like device used by devils in the New Hell. There's someone contacting me, can you guys wait for a moment?"

"Sure Haqua, go for it. Who knows it might be something important."

Eiji kindly let Haqua take the call. Actually this was what he was waiting for. From his 'Future Insight', he knew the protagonist of his original work would make a move.

Haqua nodded, she pressed one of the skull eyes on the device and a girl's voice was heard by everyone.

"Haqua? You can finally be contacted!"

"Elsie, I believe this is the first time you've contacted me since two weeks ago." Haqua said flatly.

The girl on the other hand, was practically her best friend, Elsie. At least unlike her other friends, she didn't defect to Vintage.

Their relationship wasn't bad, but ever since Keima refused to help her back then, she rarely contacted her.

"Ah, t-this..." Elsie's voice sounded awkward. She was obviously trying to make up with Haqua.

Elsie? Eiji who heard the name of the girl who called Haqua immediately remembered a devil girl who became the protagonist's adopted younger sister.

"Just say it straight away, Elsie. Is there anything important? I'm in a hurry right now." Haqua urged, she didn't want to keep Eiji and the others waiting.

"Haqua, you still want to attack Vintage alone?"

"Not really, I..." Haqua wanted to say about Eiji and the others, but Elsie hurriedly interrupted her.

"Wait a minute! Kami-sama changed his mind! He said he has a plan! By the way, did you already know? The girls possessed by the goddess have been kidnapped!"

"....Yes?" She subconsciously replied. Whether Keima was willing to help her now or not, she didn't care.

Haqua was actually more surprised by the latter news and looked at Eiji anxiously.

[The girls possessed by the goddess were kidnapped... It seemed to be due to failing to break the seal by force. Vintage who cooperated with Qlippoth used another option. They will sacrifice six goddesses in the bodies of six girls to break the seal of East Fortress Greda.]

[This is somewhat similar to the original work. As for the protagonist's plan? This guy must want to persuade one of the Vintage members to betray and gather the devils living in Maijima city to save the goddesses.]

[But hey with their power, I doubt they'll succeed. Now Vintage is assisted by Qlippoth. Honestly, instead of waiting for the protagonist, wouldn't it be faster if me, Rias, Sona and the others made a move? We can save the goddesses before they are sacrificed.]

Haqua was no longer anxious, she let out a sigh of relief that left Elsie on the other side confused.

"Haqua, how is it? Kami-sama and Nora are having a discussion at home. Are you..."

"Sorry Elsie, I have my own plans. Tell Keima that he and Nora are free to do whatever they want."

Who is Nora? She was also one of her friends who turned out to be a Vintage agent. What Eiji said was right, right now Keima must be persuading Nora to betray Vintage and join him.

Somehow it worked, maybe because Keima was the protagonist? To be honest besides his smart brain, Haqua couldn't compare that boy with Eiji who could force the enemy with his power.

So the choice was clear, she would definitely prefer to follow Eiji's group. Moreover, she had already lost some of her admiration for Keima, and Eiji was so kind... He gave her precious items like Longinus which was actually a god-level artifact.

According to what Sona said, many people out there wanted this thing. But Eiji gave it to her easily.

As a devil who had been single for a long time, Haqua felt that her spring had finally arrived. Because of that, there was no way she would waste time with other men like Keima.
