Chapter 81 - Gasper’s Fear

"Unfortunately, only the Star Buster Star Blaster wielder Shooting Star, is human. While the Nereid Kyrie wielder is half-devil..."

"Longinus-class Sacred Gears seemingly have a preference for Devils who possess human bloodline."

"Four Longinus-class Sacred Gears, including one High-Tier Longinus-class Sacred Gear, have been obtained by non-human races..."

"...And, those Devil wielders aren't ordinary. Lucifer and Leviathan are Demon King names from Hell in myths and legends."

"Such a pity, truly unfortunate..."

"..."

Longinus-class Sacred Gears, which were originally humanity's strongest trump cards, were now seized by Devils and Vampires who possessed human bloodline. This slightly dampened the joy and enthusiasm brought by Star Buster Star Blaster's entry into the list.

Even supernatural organizations among humans felt regret.

Although they didn't know precisely how many Longinus-class Sacred Gears existed, the maximum limit surely wasn't more than twenty. Now, one-fifth of them had completely not been possessed by humans. This was indeed quite a big loss.

◆━⊰✧⊱━◆

Meanwhile, the Gods' and powerhouses' focus differed from humans.

Because the two High-Tier Longinus-class Sacred Gears that just appeared on the Divine Artifact List, Star Buster Star Blaster and Nereid Kyrie, were completely unfamiliar Longinus-class Sacred Gears. They had never been active in the world before. If not for the Divine Artifact List's exposure, they surely still wouldn't know these two High-Tier Longinus-class Sacred Gears existed.

Nereid Kyrie actually had very special effects on oceans and dragon races. This of course heightened the vigilance of some sea gods and dragon races.

However, there was one thing where the Gods' and humans' views and thoughts aligned.

Namely, Longinus-class Sacred Gears indeed greatly favored Devils, especially descendants who possessed First Generation Demon King bloodline.

Vali Lucifer was so, and Ingvild Leviathan was also so!

It should be known under humanity's large population, being able to dwell with Longinus-class Sacred Gears was already great fortune. However, Vali and Ingvild, two descendants possessing First Generation Demon King bloodline, actually dwelled at the same time. This was truly a one in a hundred million possibility.

Both Sirzechs and Ajuka felt slight helplessness from the depths of their hearts.

They had just faced descendants possessing First Generation Demon King Lucifer's bloodline, and now appeared again descendants possessing First Generation Demon King Leviathan's bloodline. This truly added difficulty.

"God of Light Lugh actually has two Divine Artifacts that entered the top 20 of the Divine Artifact List."

"...Even higher than Indra's Vajra."

"Indeed not ordinary..."

"This time, the oppression in my chest can finally be released. I don't like seeing those lowly humans act arrogantly."

"..."

From the Transcendent List until the current Divine Artifact List, they were continuously suppressed by humans. This made some Gods feel oppressed in their hearts, very much wanting to have their own Divine Artifacts listed, and suppress the 'small people getting positions' arrogance from humans.

Compared to these arrogant Gods, some powerhouses and Transcendents looked very seriously at Lugh's two Divine Artifacts on the Divine Artifact List...

Devil Sword Fragarach and Devil Spear Brionac had made Lugh stand out from among Transcendents, making his combat power just below War God Indra. Both were very powerful Divine Artifacts.

◆━⊰✧⊱━◆

Meanwhile, at Kuoh Academy.

Gasper, who had just bravely come out from his dark room, after seeing Brionac occupying rank 16 on the Divine Artifact List in the sky, his eyes narrowed drastically, his whole body began trembling uncontrollably, and he collapsed in the corridor. Words from his mouth were filled with fear.

"This... that, that..."

Akeno who saw Gasper's situation, quickly spread her Devil wings and approached Gasper, gently calming him.

"Gasper... it's okay, it's okay..."

"Senpai, what's wrong with Gasper?"

Koneko also came, looking at Gasper who continued trembling on the floor confusedly.

After Akeno calmed Gasper, and his emotions slightly stabilized, she glanced at Brionac on the Divine Artifact List and said: "In Celtic mythology, Lugh used this spear to kill the Fomor Giant King, Evil Eye Devil God Balor, namely Balor!"

Then, Koneko understood the cause and effect.

Gasper was a half-vampire who was a reincarnation of Balor's consciousness fragment. After receiving the Ranking Gift on the previous Transcendent List, he was already the same as the original Balor in Source terms. Although Gasper didn't have previous life memories, after seeing this devil spear that killed him, he naturally produced death fear originating from his Source's depths.

"Too bad! The President went out at the wrong time!" Koneko sighed.

Previously it was Kiba because of Holy Swords, now Gasper also experienced problems. However, there was one confusing thing, how did Gasper suddenly run out of his room? Wasn't he always afraid of socializing and didn't dare go to crowded places?
