Chapter 78: Asuna Yuuki's Despair
While the gods and powerful beings held great interest in this generation of the Crimson Dragon Emperor and the White Dragon Emperor.
Asuna Yuuki, one of the parties involved, looked utterly dejected.
"Waaaaah... How could this happen?!"
Although I already knew about the existence of the White Dragon Emperor from Kanzaki Hikaru, just like in the game novel, I should at least give her some time to develop.
Now, things have gotten even worse. The [Divine Artifact Ranking] has directly exposed her, essentially forcing her to her death. With her current small physique, fighting against the White Dragon Emperor, who is said to have reached the level of a Demon King, is simply courting death.
Meanwhile, Kaguya Shinomiya and the others standing nearby didn't know what to say and could only look at Asuna Yuuki with helpless expressions.
"Sister Rias, the holder of the [White Dragon Emperor's Wings] is called 'Walri Lucifer,' could it be your brother's?!"
Katsura Kotonoha, who had stopped cultivating, sheathed her longsword, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and asked in confusion.
The others also began to recall—
Rias is Lucifer's younger sister, isn't she? Are they related?!
Meanwhile, Asuna Yuuki, who was thinking the same thing, had a glimmer of hope in her eyes. If that were really the case, with Rias mediating, perhaps the so-called fateful battle between the White Dragon Emperor and the Red Dragon Emperor could be avoided.
She had no desire to fight a demon king-level powerhouse for a destiny that was completely incomprehensible and whose cause and effect were unknown.
however--
The answer she awaited was destined to be disappointment.
"Wali Lucifer should be a descendant of the first Demon King Lucifer, while my brother Sazex's original name was Sazex Gremory. He became the second Demon King Lucifer after defeating these descendants of the first Demon King during the Demon Civil War..."
Rias immediately explained to Kaguya Shinomiya, Asuna Yuuki, Kotonoha Katsura, and others the history of the civil war that belonged to the Underworld.
"Oh, I see."
Kuroyukihime nodded in understanding.
Previously, when the [Transcendent Ranking] revealed information about Rias and Sona, the two sisters of the Demon Lord, they were still wondering—
Myths and legends differ greatly from reality?!
Demon King Lucifer was born into the Gremory family, a pure-blooded demon noble family. After hearing Rias's explanation, they finally understood that the first Demon King of the Underworld had fallen in the war between gods and demons a thousand years ago. Rias's brother, Sirzechs, started a revolution and, with a group of like-minded comrades, overthrew the existing ruling class of the Underworld and became the new ruler of the Underworld.
Asuna Yuuki wasn't interested in the history of the Underworld; all she knew was that there was no hope of finding a way to avoid the fateful war between the Red Dragon Emperor and the White Dragon Emperor through Rias.
"You don't need to worry too much. That guy Vali is only interested in challenging the strong. He doesn't bother with the weak."
Accelerator, who was standing to the side, seemed unwilling to continue watching Asuna Yuuki's 'shameful' appearance, and glanced at her and said.
"That's good!"
Ignoring the 'contempt' in Accelerator's eyes, Asuna Yuuki patted her chest in relief.
It wasn't that she was cowardly or afraid of death—
In reality, they knew that confronting the modern White Dragon Emperor would be a certain death, but of course they wanted to avoid it. Avoiding danger and seeking good fortune is the nature of living beings; even ants try to survive, let alone humans.
This scene only fueled Accelerator's contempt.
If it weren't for the request from their teacher, Kanzaki Teru, she would never have guided these girls in their training; in her view, it would have been a complete waste of time.
Not only were their individual talents lacking, but their innate fighting spirit was also very weak. Although these things could be cultivated later in life, she didn't have the 'leisure and interest' to pursue them.
"Just what kind of being is Vali Lucifer?!"
Rias asked curiously.
Whether it's the information revealed by Kanzaki Hikaru beforehand or the acquaintance of Accelerator and others, it all vaguely indicates that this generation's White Dragon Emperor, Vali Lucifer, is extremely extraordinary.
In addition, her extremely sensitive identity to the Underworld aroused Rias's curiosity.
Suddenly——
Kaguya Shinomiya, Asuna Yuuki, Snow White... and the others also looked at Accelerator, Kurumi Tokisaki, and Ai Enma, and they couldn't help but be curious about it.
After a few moments of silence—
Enma Ai spoke up.
"A troublesome guy who can maintain the 'Forbidden Hand Transformation' of the 'White Dragon Emperor's Wings' for up to half a month, and who can use his enormous magic power to replace his life force to cast 'Tyrant Dragon', from a human perspective, that guy can be considered one of the 'strongest human candidates', just like Accelerator."
"The members of his [Walli Team] are all formidable..."
"Although its strength is not as great as its master's, it can still be considered one of the strongest among the younger generation. Its identity as a descendant of the first Demon King Lucifer, combined with the [White Dragon Emperor's Wings] and its own extremely high talent, makes it no problem to call it the [strongest White Dragon Emperor in history]."
In just a few words, he gave a general account of Vali's situation.
Able to maintain [Hand-Free Transformation] for up to half a month —
One of the strongest human candidates—
The strongest White Dragon Emperor in history—
……
These astonishing pieces of information left Kaguya Shinomiya and the others, including Rias, somewhat unable to process them.
this moment--
They vaguely felt as if they were slowly having the good fortune to come into contact with a corner of Kanzaki Hikari's level, a circle that belonged only to truly extraordinary talents.
unexpected--
A voice filled with profound authority emanated from the Crimson Dragon Emperor's Gauntlet on Yuuki Asuna's left hand, emitting a faint crimson glow.
"The white guy has found a decent host this time." (Wang Ma Zhao)
"Red Dragon Emperor, Draig!!!"
Rias was startled and immediately realized that the person who spoke was none other than the true Red Dragon Emperor, E. Drag Goh, one of the two celestial dragons sealed within the [Red Dragon Emperor's Gauntlet].
The others also looked at the [Red Dragon Emperor's Gauntlets] on Yuuki Asuna's hand with surprise.
"Strive to become stronger, host!"
"Becoming strong enough to contend with the white-haired host is your inescapable destiny."
After saying this, the Crimson Dragon Emperor's gauntlets returned to calm.
"Fight that monster—"
Asuna Yuuki shook her head with a wry smile.
After hearing Enma Ai's description of her nemesis Vali, all she saw was utter despair; how could she possibly defeat such a monster?

Chapter 79: The Gaze of the Gods
When Asuna Yuuki is driven to despair by her nemesis, Vali, who is known as the "strongest white dragon emperor in history," she is driven to the brink of death.
The rankings published on the [Artifact Ranking] -
This left the gods feeling somewhat incredulous, causing them to suppress their previous interest in the current Crimson Dragon Emperor and White Dragon Emperor.
On the [Artifact Ranking]—
……
[Ranked 21st: Brahma Spear]
[Master: Indra]
[Master's Race: God]
[Introduction: This is the divine weapon of Indra, the lord of Mount Sumeru. It possesses two core characteristics: 'inevitable kill' and 'inevitable victory'. It can interfere with cause and effect and destiny, tilting the scales of victory. It is a divine spear that can defeat even gods with a single blow, guaranteeing certain death and victory...]
[Ranking Reward: Divine Authority Boost (Triple)]
……
Both gods and ordinary people had some understanding of this divine artifact that came from the Eastern Heavenly Emperor Martial God, so they were not overly surprised.
Except for Indra, who is located in the ninth heaven of Mount Sumeru, he frowned.
"It's only ranked twenty-first on the [Divine Artifact Ranking]."
Clearly, like Thor in the Norse pantheon and Zeus in the Greek pantheon, he was not very satisfied with the ranking of his divine weapon, the Spear of Brahma. Moreover, the ranking reward, "Divine Authority Amplification (Triple)," was a significant boost for a Demon King-level powerhouse, but it was negligible for someone like him who had transcended the level.
47 "Only the top ten of the [Dimensional Ranking] can have an effect on those who surpass them!"
"Isamu said solemnly."
His divine weapon, the Brahma Spear, is still quite far from being in the top ten of the [Divine Weapon Ranking]. He must enhance its quality several times over when the [Divine Weapon Ranking] is announced next time. Only in this way can he possibly climb into the top ten of the [Divine Weapon Ranking].
For these transcendent beings who stand at the pinnacle of the world—
The ranking rewards below the top ten in the [Dimensional Ranking] can be completely ignored, while the ranking rewards of the top ten are opportunities that must be fought for at all costs, especially the top three, which are related to the 'Other Shore Realm'!
No one who surpasses him can remain unmoved.
"Cao Cao's [Twilight Holy Spear] should be able to rank in the top ten of the [Divine Artifact Ranking]. Unfortunately, under the operation of the Celestial System, divine artifacts are just a pile of scrap metal in the hands of gods!"
Di Shitian felt a pang of regret, but the next second, when he saw the rankings on the [Divine Artifact Ranking], his eyes widened in astonishment—
"That fallen angel brat has actually reached this level..."
……
[Ranked 20th: Fallen Dragon's Flashgun?]
[Master: Azazel]
[Master's Race: Fallen Angel]
[Description: This is an artificial artifact created by the Governor-General of the Fallen Angels, sealing away the Golden Dragon Lord Fabnil. It is an artifact entirely made by the Fallen Angels and can undergo "Forbidden Hand Transformation"—the armor of the Fallen Dragon. Its power completely surpasses that of ordinary God-Destroying Gear...]
