CH.199: The Best Revenge.

( Yuuki's POV )

Ranko: hey, did you call for me?

Yuuki: yeah, yo quería mostrarte las nuevas cartas arcana, podrías llamar a uno de tus Personas? algo que use un arma.

Ranko: okey [ Izanagi].

Ranko called out a humanoid Persona who had a sword with an extra long handle, I raised the new arcane card towards him and the sword turned into particles of light that were absorbed by the arcana, and then I made it appear in my hand.

Ranko: neat... But what's the point of that?

Yuuki: let me enlighten you.

Before she arrived I used an arcane card on the twelve coffins of my Persona, Thanatos, they floated around me and I could control their movement, But that wasn't new, What was new was that the bottom half split to reveal six rotating barrels of a Gatling gun.

Yuuki: With the new arcana I can manipulate and improve the weapons and accessories of our Personas, I filled this thing with enough bullets, BIMs, and magic missiles to level a city and of course, this didn't interfere with its original function.

The coffin returned to normal and was opened completely to release the phrase sentinel that Thanatos had created.

Ranko: Wow, I didn't think that was possible, can you do the same with the Persona themselves?

Yuuki: girl I create weapons, I don't know anything about modifying spiritual bodies, I thought you would be better equipped to handle that.

Ranko: You have me all wrong, I'm a fighter.

Yuuki: Nothing we can do at the moment I guess, maybe in the future we will come across someone with that kind of talent.

Ranko: do you think that's possible?

Yuuki: There's a lot of weird out there, nothing is impossible.

Ranko: yeah I guess you're right.

Yuuki: now tell me what you want in a weapon and I'll get to work.

/////////////////////////////

After finishing my work I began to observe Kiba, who without waiting for anyone continued with the search for the Excalibur fragments, from the safety of the roofs of Kuoh I saw Kiba searching intensely and he had his guard wide open, I stayed hidden until the night fell, Koneko said that when they met the exorcist he mentioned something about revenge so before he met the enemy I jumped in front of him surprising him.

Yuuki: There are dangerous enemies for you devils in the city you know? You shouldn't be walking alone.

Kiba: ...there is something I have to do alone, no one else has to be involved.

Yuuki: but they already are, telling Koneko to lie to others, you know that was wrong, right?

Kiba I'm really sorry about that, but this is something I have to do.

Yuuki: Because of revenge, have you ever heard that the best revenge is to live well?

Kiba: I cannot do that, I will not rest until I destroy all the sacred swords.

Yuuki: can you tell me why?

Kiba: I can't.

Normally Kiba was someone calm and reasonable, but at this moment he was the complete opposite, It was impossible to change his decision and I could relate a little with vengeance.

I let out a big sigh and walked slowly towards Kiba, I took out a silver bracelet from my pocket and put it in Kiba's hands.

Kiba: ...what is this?

Yuuki: Something I created while working on a new sacred gear, something like a modifier for your sacred gear, I can't let you go unprepared.

Kiba: Aren't you going to try to stop me?

Yuuki: No, but I didn't train you just to see you go down like this, I'll be watching over you until this is over.

While we were searching the city I explained how the modifier worked, suddenly I felt a small spike in unknown energy, We followed that to an abandoned building in the mountains, wow how many abandoned buildings in the mountains are there in this city.

When we arrived at the place, a man with ash-colored hair and a creepy expression came out of the place with a sword resting on his shoulder.

Kiba: Freed!!

Freed: But if it's not the angry little devil, did you come for your second round? Uh and who are you crazy eyes?

Yuuki: a spectator, pay me no mind.

Kiba recognized the guy immediately and from the way he spoke he must be the rogue exorcist that he and Koneko found the other night, The sword he had gave off the same vibes that the girls at the church had with them, so that must be a fragment of Excalibur too, With a side glance I saw Kiba glaring and ready to pounce on the rogue exorcist.

Yuuki: Stay calm Kiba, and you shouldn't have any problems with this guy.

Without giving an answer the two ran towards each other to start the fight, they clashed swords at high speed but I could easily follow them with my eyes.

They were fighting pretty evenly which was a problem because the weird guy wasn't channeling the power of the sword correctly and Kiba didn't follow my advice to stay calm,

The situation could go south at any moment.

Freed: What's up little devil, I'm too much for you to handle.

Yuuki: don't let him get into your head Kiba, this guy has nothing on you.

Freed: hey, quit it with the comments on that side, viewer.

Kiba took advantage of the small distraction to attack, The sword he was using was covered in a red glow and when he swung his sword he released a powerful wave of energy then the sword he was using turned into nothing, Freed who was standing on a concrete railing received the attack directly and was sent crashing to the ground.

The modifier he had created could unleash a powerful attack at the cost of the weapon used, which was not a problem for Kiba who could create infinite swords as long as he had magic left, also the quality of the weapon affects the release of energy.

???: Freed, it seems like you're having trouble wielding the power of your sword.

Kiba was going to attack again but the battle stopped when suddenly an old man dressed as a priest slowly walked out of the abandoned building.
