20 Time to Show Off
"Old man, you're the one who threw that lightning bolt, right?" Ren asked irritably at the old man standing not far in front of him.
How could he not be annoyed? It hasn't been 10 seconds since he was transferred to the world of Highschool Dxd. However, when he arrived, he was immediately attacked by a lightning bolt. If he didn't have electro vision, which allowed him to have a high affinity for lightning. He would have received heavy damage to his body.
Maybe.
He himself wasn't sure how helpful his defense stats would be, when he received that lightning attack directly without having electro vision.
Well, whatever it was. He was now very upset that someone almost ruined his cool arrival moment earlier.
He didn't know for sure, what situation was happening to Grayfia who was kneeling on the ground at the moment, but he was sure that the old man in front of him, had bad intentions towards Grayfia.
The old man in question raised his eyebrows, when he saw that the man who came out of the portal was fine after receiving his divine lightning attack. "You... Who are you? Wait, you seem to be just a human."
"....." Grayfia who was sitting on the ground was also curious about the man who had just arrived. She wondered who her savior was? But when she took a good look at her savior, he seemed to be just a human. Her hopes of being rescued instantly dropped, when she found out that he was just a human.
She may sound dismissive of humans, but it's true. Most humans were weaker than supernatural beings, although there were some humans who could use magic. Their power level was very low, when compared to other supernatural beings, let alone a god like that perverted old man.
However, seeing that the man was fine after receiving a god's attack. Perhaps there was still hope for her to be saved.
"Only humans? Sigh" Ren knew he was currently being underestimated because his race was human. But considering this world is the world of Highschool Dxd, humans in this world are weak unless they have Sacred Gear.
Just then he suddenly remembered something. Which timeline was he in now? Seeing Grayfia not wearing a maid outfit like in the anime. He wondered, was he far away before the canon timeline?
"Human I suggest you leave right now, before I kill yo-"
Before the old man finished his words, Ren had already attacked him first using an electro vision attack from his right hand. The attack was a blue lightning bolt with a width of 100 meters that would be difficult to dodge.
*EXPLOSION!*
The lightning bolt traveled straight at the old man and pushed him into the mountain behind him. But the attack still hadn't stopped, as the lightning strike continued to extend like a pillar made of lightning, and continued to push the old man further. Land, forest, rock, and mountain. Everything was destroyed in a straight line 100 meters wide by Ren's lightning pillar strike that continued to extend for 2 kilometers.
"Well, that was my reply to the previous attack." Ren said while looking at the destruction caused by his attack. This was the first time he used his electro vision attack without holding back. He didn't hold back, because the one he was fighting was definitely not a weakling. He knew who he was fighting after seeing the old man's stats with his gamer eyes before.
...
Name: Zeus
Title: Zeus of Olympus, King of the Greek gods, King of Olympus, Skyfather of Olympus, God of Heaven.
Race: God
Abilities: Lightning Manipulation (Divine)
STR: 13606
DEF: 6067
STA: 12070
INT: 138367
...
After seeing the old man's stats. He was a little surprised, because he didn't expect to directly fight a god, when he just came to the Dxd world.
Looking at the numbers in those stats, Zeus certainly shouldn't be considered weak. Ren knew he shouldn't hold back in the fight against him at this time. So Ren didn't hesitate to directly attack Zeus, when he was talking.
After all, Zeus had also attacked him suddenly before, so Ren would also happily do the same to him.
Ren's current strength stats were also not much different from Zeus's. Ever since he had gotten a lot of harvest from his manga sales and quest rewards, his power stats had also increased a lot.
His current stats.
Name: Ren Kazuma
Title: Reincarnator
Level: 51
STR: 14837
DEF: 7507
STA: 11989
INT: 160263
Vision: [Electro]
With his current power stats, Ren is quite confident against a god like Zeus.
You might be wondering, does his lightning attack even have an effect on Zeus? When Zeus has the ability to manipulate lightning?
The answer is yes.
He had asked the system before. And the system replied that the lightning from his electro vision and the lightning from Zeus' divine power were different.
The lightning from his electro vision was superior to the lightning created by Zeus' divine power. How did the system confirm it? The system had analyzed the divine lightning attacks that Zeus had thrown at his body before.
Because Zeus' divine lightning was weaker, than his lightning.
Zeus' lightning wouldn't even be able to hurt him, for example like what happened when he just exited the portal earlier.
The only way for Zeus to harm him is with physical attacks, or by using abilities other than lightning manipulation.
"...." Grayfia didn't speak and just stared in amazement at the attack unleashed by Ren earlier. Before her eyes, she saw an extremely great level of destruction. Even she who was an ultimate class demon, couldn't achieve that.
At least, not yet.
Then she looked at Ren who was standing beside her with an interested gaze. She was curious how humans could achieve such strength.
Feeling Grayfia's gaze on him.
Ren turned to Grayfia and looked at her. He then smiled and asked. "Um... Miss, may I ask why you've been sitting on the ground? Did you hurt your leg or something? And why does Zeus seem to want to capture you?"
Grayfia who heard his question became somewhat embarrassed. For an ultimate-class demon to be saved by a human... Although her pride was a little shaken, she was still grateful for being saved, and she had to thank the human who had saved her.
"Thank you for saving me. As for why I'm sitting on the ground, it's because my body has become very weak due to the effects of the seal that perverted old man used-wait. Are you saying that perverted old man is Zeus? The god Zeus?" Grayfia suddenly realized that Ren called the old man Zeus. She didn't expect that the person who wanted to arrest her was the king of the Greek gods.
"Yes, that old man is a god named Zeus. And save your thanks for later, because I haven't actually saved you yet. Look over there."
Ren said as he pointed forward, precisely to the top of the red sky that was beginning to be covered by dark clouds mixed with lightning.
"That... " Grayfia's body began to tremble as she felt the divine power gathering above the sky. She became nervous now, could she be saved?
---
At the same time when Ren and Grayfia were looking at the sky. An old man who was a god named Zeus was flying in the sky.
His clothes were in tatters and his body was riddled with wounds. His current condition was caused by the lightning attack he received from humans earlier.
He felt very angry and humiliated. For being hurt by a human, especially by a lightning-elemented attack.
As a god with the ability to manipulate lightning, being injured by a lightning attack.
He naturally felt angry and humiliated.
In his rage, he began to gather his divine power and started making large-scale lightning strikes in his hands.
"Human... I'll kill you for the insult you gave this god king!"
"I Zeus will give you divine punishment that will destroy your body and soul!"
Zeus shouted above the sky and his voice was so big, it could even be heard from Ren and Grayfia's place which was about 2 kilometers away from him.
A giant gold-colored magic circle was created in front of Zeus. And the direction of the magic circle was aimed at Ren and Grayfia's place. He didn't care about Grayfia anymore, even if she was hit by his attack. He was currently furious, and he just wanted the human who attacked him earlier to die without any body parts left.
Once the magic circle was ready, he began to make a throwing pose with his right hand. In his palm was currently a lightning bolt with an enormous amount of divine power.
He then threw the lightning towards the magic circle, and after passing through the magic circle. The lightning strike grew stronger and bigger than before.
Even bigger than Ren's previous lightning strike!
Zeus' lightning strike lit up the sky and land area of 5 kilometers. And the attack shot towards where Ren and Grayfia were!
"DIE YOU LOWLY HUMAN!"
---
Seeing Zeus' large-scale attack that began to approach. Grayfia started to get scared because she couldn't avoid the attack! Her body was still difficult to move and she couldn't cast her magic.
She then looked at the human who had tried to save her and said. "Just leave me! You might still survive Zeus' attack, if you run away now!"
Grayfia felt guilty for putting the human who tried to save her in this situation. If that human left her at this time, she would not be angry and even support his decision. Although she would most likely die after being hit by Zeus' god-level attack. At least if the human managed to survive, she would feel relieved.
'So this is how my life ended. After losing my family and home to the war, and then meeting a human who tried to save me. In the end my life only ends here.' Grayfia smiled sadly, she waited for the answer given by the human next to her. However, she did not expect the human to look at her with a gentle smile.
He approached her and patted her head gently. She could feel how warm the human's hand was.
"My name is Ren Kazuma, what's yours?"
"I'm Grayfia Luci-, no. My name is just Grayfia now." Grayfia said while looking into Ren's eyes who was staring at her softly. She wasn't sure why, but she felt her eyes were hot right now. She then realized that tears were starting to flow from her eyes.
'Ah... I... Why am I crying? I felt emotional when he smiled gently and patted my head. It reminds me of my mother who used to do the same to me in the past.'
Looking at Grayfia who was staring at him in a daze with tears streaming from her eyes.
Ren started to feel uncomfortable now.
He squatted down a little and wiped her tears, then asked. "Grayfia do you want to live?"
"I... "
"Answer quickly because we don't have much time now." Ren said softly.
Grayfia bit her lip. "Yes, I still want to live."
Ren nodded. "Good, then will you work at my bookstore after this?"
Grayfia looked at him in confusion. A bookstore? She didn't know why she was invited to work in a bookstore, but if she survived Zeus' attack. She wouldn't mind working in his bookstore. She would even be willing to follow him for the rest of her life, and swear loyalty to him.
"I do." Grayfia said with a gentle smile at him.
Ren was happy to hear Grayfia's answer. He then stood in front of her and walked forward. Precisely in the direction of Zeus' attack which was heading for the two of them.
'System, take out that flag."
[Okay, Hosts!]
A flag then appeared in his hand. The flag had a gold-colored handle, and the tip was sharp like a spear. The flag itself was gold and white with a beautiful crest in the center.
This is a good opportunity to try out the items I got from the previous Luxurious Chest rewards!
Although I won't be hurt by Zeus' lightning attack because of the lightning immunity that my electro vision gives me.
But Grayfia was different, with Zeus' wide attack scale. She will receive fatal damage to her body, and she will most likely die instantly.'
Ren certainly didn't want his favorite waifu to die. He gripped the flag with both of his hands, and stuck the flag into the ground in front of him.
Then he said.
"Here's the work of the Lord!"
