Chapter 837 Promotion Test 4 (1/2)
Akeno, Kiba, Koneko, and Issei went to take the number for their practical exam.
”I am number 4,” Issei said.
”17,” Koneko said.
”I am in the middle. I am number 26,” Kiba said with a small laugh.
”Ufufufu, I am the last,” Akeno said while showing a number 32 to everyone.
”We're going to be separated,” Issei seemed quite depressed.
”Don't worry, Issei. You're very strong. You have beaten Bael-san in the past,” Kiba said.
Issei knew that he had beaten Sairorg but he knew that he wouldn't beat Sairorg without the help of both Koneko who had drained Sairorg's stamina in the early game and Akeno who fought bravely before him. He clenched his hand and nodded, ”I'll defeat the examiner!”
”Good! That's the spirit,” Kiba nodded.
”Kiba, are you confident?” Akeno asked.
”Yes,” Kiba nodded and said, ”I would have never thought that I would be here standing with everyone for the promotion test and that's why I have to succeed on this promotion test no matter what.”
”That's good but you don't need to overdo it. Rias isn't going to do anything when the result isn't that good. I am sure that she will try to pamper you when you've failed your exam,” Akeno said.
”Pamper me?!” Issei suddenly imagined that he could touch Rias's breasts and let out his perverted laugh.
”.....”
”Issei-kun. Your face,” Kiba said.
”O - Oh!!!”
”The matches will occur with two pairs fighting at once! First, [1] and [2], [3] and [4] will start their matches!”
Suddenly they heard an announcement from the staff.
”It looks like I'm first,” Issei said.
”Good luck.”
”I am sure that you can do it.”
”Fight.”
Issei nodded, ”I - I will go first.” He walked to the location of the exam with a firm expression.
”....”
Kiba, Koneko, and Akeno looked at his back.
”I am not sure, but I am worried for some reason,” Koneko said.
”Ufufufu, he's a 'boob dragon' after all,” Akeno said.
”Don't worry, Issei-kun will succeed on this exam,” Kiba said.
They nodded and watched Issei who had entered the circular battlefield made by Demonic power.
---
Issei stood up on the battlefield and felt a bit nervous. He started to think about his strategy. He knew that he could use a promotion on this test and decided to promote directly when he saw his opponent. He wanted to use True-Queen, the move that he had developed when he was fighting against Sairorg but it was still unstable. He was thinking about how to fight but his opponent had appeared in front of him.
”Both of you are ready then?”
Issei nodded and looked at the man in front of him. He knew that he couldn't underestimate this devil since this man had the power to become an examiner.
”Please start!”
”Promotion [Queen]!” Issei didn't hesitate to do promotion directly.
The opponent raised his hand and started to shoot an orb of fire toward Issei, ”Ha!”
Issei, who had used his promotion, needed time before he could use his 'balance breaker'. He dodged his opponent's attack while buying time for his move.
”Freezing Archaeopteryx.”
Suddenly cold chills were surrounding the man's area and he started to gather air in the air before creating a gigantic bird.
'Sacred Gear!' Issei knew that this attack would be very dangerous but luckily the countdown was over and he could use his 'balance breaker'.
”Balance Breaker!” A red aura covered his body and it shaped into the shape of armor.
Issei raised both of his dragon's wings and charged toward the man with his booster.
*GOOOO!!!!!!
