~ I have added this Fanfic to my Patreon. If you’d like to read advanced Chapters, feel free to check it out!

~ I’m planning to increase the number of advanced Chapters to +50 this weekend!

~ I’ve edited some of the previous Chapters to remove anything you might consider "cringe" or "unnecessary." I’ll continue reviewing them from time to time!

~ Very soon, we’ll return to releasing two Chapters daily, including bonus privileges for Power Stone contributions

"This is called [Flame Delete]. It nullifies any flame magic and acts as an amplifier for ice magics. It’s usually a bit more difficult to craft enchanted swords. I’ve never tried doing that with anything other than a normal steel sword." Kiba stated thoughtfully. "Though it is certainly possible, especially if I’m only creating a single type multiple times. It’s definitely something I can work towards."

"We’ll work out a training program for that when we get home." agreed Rias with a firm nod, still internally cursing herself as an idiot, before turning her attention back to the Red-Armoured Man. "Any other ideas?"

"Make the attacks so painful that they cause his mind to shut down." The Gamer suggested. "I don’t care if he can regenerate, his mind should have an upper threshold for the amount of pain he can feel."

"True." Rias agreed thoughtfully, a small vindictive smile forming on her lips. Her distaste for her so-called fiancé probably made the idea far more appealing than it should. "Regeneration aside, Raiser is an average young Devil, cocky and arrogant. Most people who face him expect to lose because of his Phenex abilities, so the chances are that he has rarely had to suffer much in the way of pain. Combined with fire-nullifying swords from Kiba to pin him down and we may have a plan."

"Developing a new spell for that situation would take quite some time." Sona pointed out. "Unless Kiba can make a Pain Sword as well, I can’t see this as being practical."

The blond boy focused for a moment and a new blade emerged from the ground nearby. It superficially resembled a scimitar, but it had a serrated edge and looked like a torture device. "This is...[Painsedge]. A sword that magnifies any and all sensations of pain by three with every cut."

He looked a bit disturbed. Evidently he had not pushed his ability to create such esoteric swords before this point. Then again, his general attitude was to uphold the code of chivalry, so using swords with such unfair tricks to them would count as something he’d avoid when at all possible.

"That’s one possibility." Rias said, her blue eyes gleaming at this, though she frowned slightly in thought. "Though this puts a great deal on Kiba-kun to both lock down and then weaken Riser."

"I have access to a store that lets me buy things. I could look through it for spells for Himejima-san and yourself, Heiress Gremory." The Gamer offered.

"Considering that you’re helping me, call me Rias." The redhead said with a smile. "And please do."

It took a couple of minutes for him to find books that suited the situation, but find them he did. For Akeno, he found two; one called [Thunder Field], which allowed the caster to surround the target of her spell with electricity that damaged them over time and caused quite a bit of pain as well, and [Nervebreaker], a thunder spell that directly attacked the nervous system of the target, damaging it and raising the target’s pain sensitivity.

In Rias’ case, there were not many spells that had anything to do with the [Power of Destruction], but there were two that suited the situation. One was [Cellular Destruction], which used a blast similar to the regular [Power of Destruction] spells that Rias used, but it attacked the target on a cellular level, making their cells explode. It was apparently one of the most painful spells the Gamer had ever seen.

The last spell was [Destruction Blade], a close combat spell that surrounded the user’s flattened hand and forearm in the [Power of Destruction], forging a blade that could cut through almost anything if practiced enough. With practice, the characteristics of other spells the caster had access to could be infused into it...such as [Cellular Destruction].

Watching the two Devils ’absorb’ the purchased ’skill books’ using the Gamer’s help, some new function of his Sacred Gear he had unlocked just now apparently, was fascinating for Sona...and worrying. With simple human currency he offered to his Sacred Gear (it had to be. No way was it an actual shop), The Gamer of Gaia could purchase powerful spells and other skills that he could use against his enemies almost immediately, albeit at a fairly weak level. And that was just a part of his Sacred Gear’s functions.

As an enemy, he was one of the worst types she could think of; one that could change and adapt to whoever and whatever his enemies were if given enough time and resources. As an ally, she could think of none better. Keep faith with him and he’d support them with everything he had. She was good enough at reading people to see that he was helping Rias because he thought she deserved a chance to fight for her freedom and that he was sympathetic to her plight.

This did earn him some points with her, as she had a soft spot for Rias, even if she didn’t let anyone else know about it. Anyone who helped her friend was alright in her book. Sona just hoped that nothing happened to make them have to fight him.
