"FIRE DRAGON IRON FIST!!!"
His flaming fist collided with Riser's gut, the force sending the arrogant devil soaring across the battlefield before slamming into the wall, creating a deep crater upon impact.
A pained groan escaped Riser's lips as he staggered back to his feet. His body trembled slightly, the shock of Shiro's inhuman strength settling in.
"How does a filthy human like you know Dragon Slayer Magic?! That art was lost thousands of years ago!" Riser spat, rage and confusion twisting his features.
Shiro's expression remained cold, his golden eyes burning with undeniable fury.
"I don't have to explain myself to someone like you."
Riser's face contorted with fury. "How dare you, you insolent worm!"
He raised his hands, rapidly firing smaller fireballs in succession.
Shiro didn't dodge this time either. He walked through the flames as if they were nothing more than a warm breeze.
Then, with a burst of speed, Shiro lunged forward.
"FIRE DRAGON TALON!!!"
His flaming leg swung up in a powerful arc, launching Riser high into the air.
The arrogant devil barely managed to recover, spreading his flaming wings to stabilize himself. His body radiated an even darker flame, his demonic energy rising.
"The immortal bird! The Phoenix is in my blood!" Riser roared, his wings spreading wide, flames spiraling around him like a living inferno. "There is NO WAY someone as pathetic as you can defeat me!"
Shiro's eyes narrowed, his smirk turning dark.
"Riser… your death is something I will truly enjoy."
With an enraged snarl, Riser shot forward, his entire body a comet of fire. He closed the distance in an instant, his flaming fist colliding with Shiro's chest, sending him flying backward into the wall.
A thunderous shockwave rippled through the arena.
A silence fell over the battlefield as the dust settled.
Riser grinned wickedly. "Now you're dead, you pathetic worm. And after this is over… I think I'll pay a visit to that little girl of yours. Perhaps I'll snap her neck myself—"
"You… son of a b*tch."
Riser's blood ran cold.
From the crater, Shiro rose once more—his eyes blazing with pure, unfiltered rage.
His aura ignited. Flames exploded around him, his presence growing heavier, more oppressive.
A storm was brewing.
Shiro clenched his fists, his knuckles turning white, as his entire body radiated a terrifying pressure.
With a single, thunderous step, he vanished.
He reappeared directly in front of Riser.
"FIRE DRAGON FISTS!!!"
Blow after devastating blow landed against Riser's body—each strike filled with unrelenting fury.
Riser coughed blood, unable to keep up. He stumbled back, his healing factor barely able to keep pace with the brutal assault.
But he still grinned, even as he bled.
"You can't kill me," Riser panted, his breath ragged. "I'm a Phenex! I will always heal! You're just delaying the inevitable!"
But then—Shiro smirked.
With a flick of his wrist, a golden light flashed.
The audience gasped in shock.
Clutched in Shiro's hand was a blade unlike any other.
A holy sword.
Riser's smug expression shattered instantly. His eyes went wide with terror as he stumbled back.
"…Where did you get that?" he whispered, his voice barely above a breath.
Shiro held the blade with pride, its golden glow illuminating the battlefield.
"This?" He twirled the sword before pointing it at Riser. "This is my Holy Sword—'Holy Avenger.'"
Riser's face twisted with disbelief.
"You're lying! Someone like YOU couldn't have possibly created something like that!"
Shiro's smirk grew wider. "Believe what you want. But this… will be the weapon that cuts you down."
At that moment, a system notification appeared before his eyes.
[Holy Avenger Special Ability Unlocked]
[GOD'S SPEED SLASH: This attack may only be used once every 10 minutes.]
Shiro's grip tightened around Holy Avenger, the golden blade glowing with divine radiance. His eyes locked onto Riser, who was desperately trying to evade, but it was futile.
"GOD'S SPEED SLASH!!!"
In the blink of an eye, Shiro vanished.
A flash of golden light illuminated the battlefield as multiple slashes tore through Riser's body within a fraction of a second.
—His right shoulder was cleaved open.
—His torso was split apart.
—His left shoulder was sliced clean through.
—His right arm and left leg were severed.
—And finally, his entire body was bisected down the middle.
Shiro reappeared behind him, standing calmly, his blade lowered.
A chilling silence filled the arena.
Riser's eyes were frozen in shock, his mouth opening to scream, but no sound came.
His body fell apart, each severed piece igniting in holy flames, erasing any trace of regeneration. The once immortal Phenex was now nothing but ashes.
Shiro exhaled, sheathing Holy Avenger before summoning his Sacred Gear.
A crackling storm of blue lightning engulfed him as the gauntlets of Voltaris materialized on his arms.
Gasps filled the room as the audience stared in disbelief.
Then, Shiro and Voltaris spoke as one, their voices merging into a powerful declaration that shook the heavens.
"THIS WAS ONLY A TASTE OF THE POWER WE POSSESS! IF ANYONE DARES TO HARM THE ONES I LOVE, I WILL STRIKE YOU DOWN WHERE YOU STAND! SO DECLARES I, THE LIGHTNING DRAGON EMPEROR!"
Shiro tilted his head back, his chest expanding as his throat vibrated with raw draconic energy.
Then—
"ROOOOAAAAARRRR!!!"
A thunderous, dragon-like roar erupted from his lungs, shaking the entire room to its core.
[SKILL ACQUIRED: DRAGON ROAR]
The power in his voice rippled through the air, the force blasting back anyone standing too close.
Then—he was teleported back to the party hall.
As soon as Shiro reappeared, he barely had time to register his surroundings before someone wrapped their arms around him tightly.
"Thank you."
Rias's voice was soft, filled with gratitude, her breath warm against his chest as she hugged him tightly.
Shiro blinked, momentarily caught off guard, before sighing and gently patting her back.
As he did, Sirzechs stepped forward, a proud smile on his face.
"Shiro, you have emerged victorious. As promised, you shall receive your rewards."
A system notification flashed before Shiro's eyes.
[SECRET QUEST COMPLETED!]
Quest: 'Defeat the Flaming Thunder Prick'
Rewards: 30,000 EXP / $35,000 / 5 Random Skill Books
Shiro grinned, feeling the rush of experience surge through his body.
Before he could say anything, however, Riser's family approached.
Lord and Lady Phenex stood before him, their faces somber yet composed.
Shiro straightened, lowering his head respectfully.
"I deeply regret what happened," he said, voice firm but sincere. "Please forgive me. I had no choice—he was the one who demanded a death match."
Lord Phenex studied him for a moment before letting out a deep sigh.
"You need not apologize. We hold no ill will toward you."
Shiro looked up, surprised.
Lady Phenex nodded, her expression gentle. "You simply did what had to be done. If anyone is to blame, it is our foolish son."
Shiro still felt a twinge of guilt, but before he could respond, a familiar voice spoke up.
"Yes. I warned him not to be reckless, but he never listened."
Shiro turned his head to see Ravel Phenex standing beside her parents, her golden curls swaying slightly as she walked toward him.
Her sharp blue eyes met his, and for a moment, she was silent.
Then, she exhaled softly.
"…Thank you."
Before Shiro could process her words, she stepped closer—and placed a soft kiss on his cheek.
Shiro's eyes widened.
His face burned red as the room filled with murmurs and chuckles.
Lady Phenex smiled. "Oh my, how bold~"
Ravel, realizing what she had just done, flushed bright red and turned her head away.
"B-Be grateful, you idiot! Not just anyone gets a kiss from me!" she huffed, arms crossed.
Shiro, despite himself, grinned. "Alright, alright—thank you, Miss Tsundere Princess."
Ravel's face turned even redder.
"I'M NOT A TSUNDERE!!!"
She lunged at him, clearly intending to grab him—but Shiro, laughing, quickly dodged.
"Nope~!" he teased, stepping away.
