After forcing Vali back with a sword strike, I sheathed [Excalibur], my gaze fixed on a particular spot, and called out, "You've been watching for so long, and you're still going to hide? Red Dragon Emperor—Lux!"
"Red Dragon Emperor!!!"
"The other Heavenly Dragon is nearby?!"
The leaders of the Three Factions nearby, as well as Rias and the others, were all startled.
Suddenly, a red streak of light flew over at an astonishing speed, forming a three-way standoff with me and the White Dragon Emperor, Vali.
The newcomer was indeed the Red Dragon Emperor, Lux!
"Tsk, Vali, giving it your all already? You even used [Juggernaut Drive]!"
Lux was initially shocked to see Vali, but then he turned to look at me, his heart filled with a strong desire to fight. "I knew you were strong, Kyoya Hibari. Let's have a fight! Seeing you and Vali fight, I couldn't hold back any longer."
Before I could speak, Vali, beside me, roared at Lux angrily, "Hey! Bastard Lux, this is my fight! I'm the one fighting him, so stay out of it!!"
"Huh? Look who's talking, all beat up and bruised. Just step aside and let me handle this!" Lux retorted, waving him off dismissively.
His words enraged Vali, who immediately attacked Lux.
Seeing this, Lux chanted an incantation:
<"I, who am about to awaken,">
<"Am the Heavenly Dragon who has stolen the principles of domination from God">
<"I laugh at the "infinite", and I fret over the "dream">
<"I shall become the Red Dragon of Domination">
<"And I shall sink you to the depths of the crimson purgatory!">
Lux also directly activated [Juggernaut Drive]—and then started fighting with Vali.
In an instant, red and white figures clashed in the sky, the sounds of [Boosting] and [Dividing] echoing intermittently.
The leaders far away, Azazel and Michael, as well as Rias and the others, were all stunned.
'Wh-what's going on?!'
Wasn't this supposed to be Kyoya and the White Dragon Emperor Vali's fight? Why are the Two Heavenly Dragons fighting each other?
But even more speechless was me, standing there awkwardly as Lux and Vali fought. I twitched my mouth.
'Could this be the Two Heavenly Dragons—Bromance?'
'This is a great opportunity to complete the task.' I unleashed a terrifying bolt of lightning powerful enough to slay a Maou, interrupting the two who were fighting.
"Since you both want to fight me so badly, then come at me together!"
Saying this, I unleashed my [Transcendent] aura—instantly pressing Vali and Lux to the ground, where they struggled to resist.
"..."
"Why does this Draconic aura feel so familiar? Ddraig, do you feel it too?" Albion was incredulous.
Hearing Albion's words, Ddraig was also shocked. "Albion, do you feel that familiar sensation too? It's as if we were facing..."
Before he could finish, both Albion and Ddraig seemed to realize something, their very souls trembling with fear.
——
"A Transcendent Aura?! Kyoya-kun is a Transcendent-being?!" Sirzechs's eyes widened in astonishment.
"What!!!"
"Kyoya is a Transcendent! Onii-sama, are you joking?!"
Rias exclaimed in disbelief after hearing Sirzechs's words.
Not only Rias—But Akeno, Koneko, Kiba, Kiyome, Michael, Azazel, and Serafall stared in astonishment.
"That's right. Azazel, Michael, surely you can sense it as well. Only a Transcendent-being can possess such Aura! Moreover..."
Sirzechs paused for a moment, then continued, "I've never sensed such a horrifying power before—Not even from Shiva!"
"This aura is almost comparable to the Biblical God's!!!"
Sirzechs murmured again in disbelief. His heart was filled with shock!
"God!!!"
Hearing Maou Sirzechs's words, Rias and the other younger members gasped, their hands covering their mouths in shock.
That was the Strongest God in the legends. They couldn't imagine that Kyoya had such power.
It completely shattered their perception of Kyoya!
Azazel also widened his eyes, his mouth agape, unable to believe what he was seeing.
"I just fought Kyoya the other day, and he was clearly only at the Maou-class level. How could he suddenly..."
Azazel rubbed his eyes repeatedly, wondering if he was dreaming.
At this moment, everyone noticed that Michael was staring blankly, muttering something under his breath. "God... Kyoya..."
Michael stared intently at me, repeating these words.
"Hey, hey, hey, Michael! You don't have to be this shocked!"
Azazel scratched his head, looking at Michael strangely.
Michael turned to look at Azazel and Sirzechs, and said in shock, "Do you feel the Draconic aura coming from Kyoya? Doesn't it feel familiar?"
"Draconic aura? Familiar?"
Hearing this, Azazel, Sirzechs, and Serafall were all taken aback, not understanding what he meant. But they still carefully focused on the energy around me.
"....."
Suddenly, the three of them opened their eyes wide and staggered back a few steps, then froze, mouths agape, unable to utter a single word.
And Rias and the others, seeing this, were also stunned into silence.
What had the Maou and the Fallen Angel Governor-General thought of that would cause them to react strongly?
After a moment, Michael was the first to speak, breaking the silence. "Surely you haven't forgotten that incident from back then, have you?"
To this, Azazel responded with a hint of panic in his voice. "Wait, Michael, you can't mean to say that Kyoya is that Dragon from back then! That's not a funny joke!"
However, Sirzechs, beside him, questioned, "Then how do you explain this familiar draconic aura? Surely you're not going to tell me it's just a coincidence?"
Pausing for a moment, Sirzechs continued, his tone low, "That Dragon single-handedly killed the Two Heavenly Dragons and then mysteriously vanished without a trace. There hasn't been a single clue about him since."
"And now, Kyoya's aura is almost identical. It can't be a coincidence, so there's only one explanation!!"
After he finished speaking, the three leaders all looked at me with strange expressions.
They all had the same thought: Could it be Kyoya?!
