Chapter 150
"World's Greatest Swordsman? I've never heard that one," said Gilgamesh visibly surprised.
This time Azazel spoke up.
"Well you are very famous after all you beat Vasco Strada in a sword battle, and this man is someone that even the members of the Top 10 are afraid of" said Azazel to everyone who was surprised, "That coupled with your title of Paladin or Holy Knight and all your accomplishments earned you that title" said Azazel to Gilgamesh who nodded.
"Well, I don't mind fighting you Slash Dog" said Gilgamesh smiling.
Tobio and Gilgamesh went to the center of the battlefield again while Azazel picked up Vali's passed out body and they and Lavinia and Valerie went to a safe place to watch the battle.
"You can go with everything Tobio" said Azazel to SlashDog who nodded as he smiled.
Both Tobio and Gilgamesh positioned themselves on the battlefield.
Jin, the dog who is the avatar of Longinus [Canis Lykaon] stood next to Tobio and a black mist surrounded him and when it disappeared a large black dog with red eyes the size of a human was revealed.
Tobio stretched out his hand and from its shadow emerged a long black sword which he grasped.
This is the primary power of the Longinus [Canis Lykaon], it allows its user to produce blades from his shadows, besides Jin who has his own instinct and can move through shadows and create blades from his body.
Gilgamesh stretched out his hand and summoned a sword in it.
It was a broadsword with a normal grip and possessed a sharpness superior to normal swords.
Although it was stronger than a normal sword, it was still only a sword and not a Noble Phantasm, so its power was inferior to Tobio's.
After all the [Canis Lykaon] is a Longinus that manifests itself in the form of a sword capable of cutting anything, even Gods.
Tobio in an instant positioned himself and fired at Gilgamesh with Jin at his side.
Gilgamesh at the same time took off on Tobio with his sword drawn.
Both of them collided causing sparks to fly and started a duel with phenomenal sword skills.
Gilgamesh defended any attack by Tobio and Slash Dog did the same.
Gilgamesh quickly jumped and dodged when he noticed Jin trying to attack with a sword in his mouth.
Gilgamesh in one swift movement launched Jin flying and Tobio took this opportunity to attack.
Tobio was fast, very fast even by supernatural standards, Tobio had surreal abilities.
For any attack Tobio and Jin who were moving in perfect sync, one covering the other's gaps, still were not winning.
Gilgamesh quickly mastered Tobio in his sword handling and nullified any attack from the man while easily dodging Jin's attacks.
Tobio flinched as Gilgamesh sent him flying.
Jin quickly went to his master's side.
"Looks like I can't win this way, I'll have to go further" Tobio said to himself
He was not surprised, after all Gilgamesh had neutralized Vali in his Balance Breaker and so Tobio would go further.
"You know Gilgamesh I can rarely let go, after all my power covers a large scale" said Tobio as his aura seemed to increase.
Immediately Tobio began a chant.
"See the slaughter of a thousand mortals"
A mist like darkness covers Tobio and Jin's body, and spreads over the entire area.
"Besides the killing of ten thousand goblins"
His arms and legs were caught by the darkness and turned into a supernatural form.
"My name, which is immersed in the deepest darkness, is the Imitation God crossing the Polar Night"
The darkness adheres to Tobio's entire body and assimilates him.
"O you, perish by my own black blade"
While his body is shaped like a person, he becomes something other than humans.
"O fool, God Creator of the deformed"
When Tobio uttered the last passage of the chant, the black dog, Jin gave a clear, long howl.
Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooon...
What appeared was a god of false blades in the form of humans dressed in darkness.
Tobio sang the chant and changed his appearance, he had a form that resembled a humanoid dog, had six tails, and kept emanating an aura of darkness from his entire body.
Beside him, his dog, Jin, let out darkness from his mouth.
"Balance Breaker: Night Celestial Slash Dogs"
(Author: The image of Tobio's Balance Breaker is the one from the beginning of the chapter)
Tobio, who has become a dark hunter, pulled out a weapon longer than his own shadow.
A large black scythe filled with aura of darkness.
The Longinus [Canis Lykaon] is a type of independent even among Sacred Gears, it is another body of the owner (Jin in Tobio's case) that has consciousness and can be operated remotely under the direction of the master.
In addition, it was also possible to create blades of all shapes from shadows and darkness. The large scythe that Tobio took out was this ability.
At the same time, Jin also made a sword appear from his own shadow and held it aside with his mouth. A mysterious pattern shines on the blade of the sword. There are forbidden spells engraved there.
Gilgamesh before all the power shown by Tobio smiled.
"You are really someone interesting Ikuse Tobio, so I will show you something" said Gilgamesh as he tightened the grip of his sword.
A great divine aura covered the body of Gilgamesh who smiled.
"This is the first time I will use this in battle and I will show it to someone, after all your Longinus can cut anything and I want to see which is the strongest" said Gilgamesh.
Gilgamesh's divine aura increased and as he clasped his sword and his right arm, the one holding the sword, began to turn to silver as it glowed.
Gilgamesh raised his sword and recited:
"I will take this oath now. I, will not allow anything that cannot be cut to exist in this world. For this sword in my hand, is the invincible blade that reduces everything without fail!"
The moment Gilgamesh recited his chant his sword was enveloped by a silver aura that consolidated with it.
It was the Authority of Gilgamesh the [Silver Arm] an Authority that allows Gilgamesh to transform anything he holds with his right hand into an invincible sword capable of cutting anything.
Able to transform anything into a supreme sword that cuts everything, able to divide land the heavens and the seas, said to make the inseparable into separable.
Tobio was surprised by the frightening aura that appeared in Gilgamesh's sword, even from afar he could sense the danger of his blade.
"It can't be! A divine Authority?" shouted Azazel in shock and everyone could hear.
"Azazel-sama?" asked Lavinia curiously.
"I'm sorry, but that's amazing, him being able to do something like that" said Azazel surprised.
"What is an Authority Azazel-sama?" asked Lavinia.
"Authorities are the powers that belong to the Gods, they are laws that allow them to have their great powers, they are one of the reasons the Gods have so much power. Gods like Zeus and Indra have Authorities that command lightning and Amaterasu who has his Authority by the power of the Sun, sometimes they get Authorities by their legends and myths, is the fact that Gilgamesh has one is surreal" said Azazel with surprise.
"Why?" asked Valerie as she finished healing Vali who was still unconscious.
"Demigods can't have divine Authorities, at most they can use some of the power of their divine parents, but Authorities can't, that's why it's amazing" said Azazel to the two who were surprised, "And from the looks of it the chant he did was to activate the Authority"
