Entering The World Of High School DxD - Chapter 39 Equipment Upgrades

It’s been 4 hours since we returned from Romania and I’ve only just got a break from managing all that’s happened today. Through the report given to me by the operatives sent to Romania, I found a minor but crucial bug in the transportation runes.

The runes do have the ability to transport any member back to Haven at a moments notice but that is only if there is nothing interfering with the space around the user. There are 2 barriers that can do this the first is an isolation barrier that will delay the teleportation. Until the user can find a more stable location within the barrier to return transmissions, on the other hand, can be sent from them. The next is a spatial isolation barrier, this one is way more difficult to put up. It isolates the space within the barrier inside the dimensional gap, while still having the outer image stay the same. This barrier stops any type of teleportation of transmission from leaving the barrier.

The only reason the operative sent to Romania were able to send an S.O.S is because the Tepes Faction used both barriers but started first with the isolation barrier then they put up the spatial isolation barrier. In the end, it was mainly luck that let us receive the signal.

Yu – *Sigh* Going over the reports as well as the migration paperwork is really tiring.~

Right now I’m in my study inside the castle, a study is what I’d like to call it but it’s more like a room with a desk and view. To the side is a couch where Shirone or Kuroka sit when they visit my study and behind me is a sky-high view of the city outside. It’s already dark outside but I can still see glimpses of light throughout the city.

While the city doesn’t have any modern technology it does have a modern style building structure. I smiled watching this because I knew that this city would be livelier in the years to come. Standing from my chair I walked outside and made my way to the inner parts of the castle. Passing through multiple rooms, greeting the passing maids, and crossing through multiple doors I found myself inside a room full of transportation formations.

This was my personal relay station that takes me to any restricted location in Haven. Walking past 5 formations I stepped on the 6th one in the corner of the room. After a short flash, I found myself in a beautiful garden. The garden was wide but if you looked at the edges of the floor you’d see this was a floating island.

This island was covered by stealth and isolation formations and the only normal way in and out of here for people was through the transportation relay. This garden is my personal herb garden that I’ve been cultivating for the past few years. While the herbs here can also be found all around Haven I like to keep a bundle of each herb species here in case I need them.

At the center of the garden was a gazebo and inside were 3 girls. 2 of them were looking after the third who was lying on a bed in the center. They were Kuroka, Shirone, and Valerie.

Yu – Hey how’s it going?

Shirone – She’s still asleep no change there.

Before going off the work in my study I left Valerie with the Nekoshou sister telling them to take her to my herb garden and to wait for me to come back later. They were skeptical at first seeing that I came home with a girl in my hands. They glared at me seeing she was wearing nothing but underwear but I gave them a quick explanation before I left them to their devices

I see that they changed her into a one-piece dress but I was hoping that she’d wake up by the time I got back. It seems that it’ll take longer for her to wake up. Since I had nothing to do I started setting up plant nurturing formations and then I planted the spirit fruit and herb seed around the gazebo. Once the seeds were sown I put up a time acceleration formation and speed the time up.

With this I would be able to get more herbs and fruits to help Valerie recover faster, all I had to do was wait. Before I knew it 3 more hours passed and Kuroka and Shirone had fallen asleep beside the sleeping Valerie. Releasing a short sigh I picked up the 2 girls who curled themselves in my arms and took them to their rooms.

When that was done I returned to the garden and started to look after the spirit herbs. Eventually, I got bored and started to browse through my inventory. After 10 minutes of browsing, I focused on 3 items, they were the sword fetus, a pile of blood diamonds, and my legendary equipment gacha ticket.

Placing these items before me I looked through the descriptions of all of them. I first started with the sword fetus it seems to be a weapon that can absorb items to make it stronger. It’s a good ability but I don’t know what to use to make it stronger. It was then that I looked at the blood diamonds, they were a high-quality material used in most powerful magic tools.

These diamonds had the ability to absorb both blood and mana, so I grabbed two diamonds and filled them with both. Though my mana isn’t as great as source energy it is very pure due to my years of mana refinement, and with my blood being a mix of 7 primordial races I believed these items would be suitable materials for the sword fetus.

[Mana Blood Diamond]

– A blood diamond infused with pure mana to the utmost limit. If any more mana is added the chances of a huge explosion is high.

[??? Blood Diamond]

– A blood diamond filled with peak quality blood from lost races. Sinister and sacred energies flow through its core in balance.

After seeing their description although plain as they were I believed that they would improve the sword fetus greatly.

With both diamonds in one hand and the sword in another, I brought the items together. As I was doing this the sword fetus started to shake and the diamonds seemed to be pulled towards it. Before they even meet physically the diamonds were gone and I was left holding a glowing sword.

Right before my eyes, the sword started to change and within 30 minutes I was left holding a single edge, black sword. {A/N: The structure of the blade is like this but crimson color instead of purple i.pinimg.com/originals/5b/20/d7/5b20d707c99c2a2199a6bcb9f08e25ce.jpg}

Engraved on the sword edge was a Japanese dragon, on the opposite edge was a phoenix, the handle had a tiger, and the hilt had a turtle. All in all, I liked the look of the sword but right now I needed to look at its abilities.

[[Unnamed Sword (Undefined Rank)]

– A sword fetus that has absorbed high-quality blood and mana improving mana conductivity, strength, and sharpness. As well as being granted several abilities.

1st – Bloodthirst: A passive ability derived by the blood of the vampires used to make the blood diamond allows the sword to increase sharpness by ‘drinking’ the blood of its victim.

2nd – Spirit Strike: A passive ability derived from the pure spirit blood found inside the blood diamond, allows the sword to cut spiritual entities.

3rd – Soul Eater – A passive ability used to eat the souls of its victims, derived by the combination of spirit and demon blood found in the blood diamond.

4th – Miasma Aura: An active ability derived from the demon blood found inside the blood diamond, allows the sword to produce miasma for either defense, attack, or intimidation. The more souls the sword eats the stronger the miasma.

5th – Mana charge: An active ability that allows the sword to charge up vast amounts of mana for a single strike

6th – Dimensional Strike: An active ability that allows the sword to cut into space opening a path towards the dimensional gap

7th – Integration: An ability that allows the sword to reside inside the user’s body for future use.

8th – Bloodline Owner: A special ability that allows the blade to be used only by those who have the mixed bloodline of the primordial azure dragon, white tiger, black turtle, vermillion phoenix, demon, pure spirit, and ancestor]

Yu – Whoa… that’s amazing

Commenting on the sword in my hand I tried to use the 7th ability and within a few second the sword shrunk until it merged into my palm. What was left was a sword-shaped tattoo before it vanished as well.

Yu – Nice!

It took a while to get used to but after trying it a couple times I got used to it. Storing the blade away I looked back at the only item left on display. It was the gacha ticket, I paused for a while wondering if I still needed it but eventually picked it up and activated the systems gacha.
