Chapter 28: Ch 26: Sacred Gear and Shock

"I guess he is your son?" Asked Touji, trying to stay calm in front of the terrifying woman.

"No quite, but it's true that he is someone important to me." Said Asako while giving Zircon a loving hug. "By the way, thanks for the cake from that day."

(She still remembers.) Touji didn't know if laugh or cry, because she mentioned that day like if it was a good day, while in the case of Touji it leave him with a trauma.

However, by now, it wasn't the time to think about the past. He wondered why the woman, Kusakabe Asako a.k.a the Blue Nightmare was doing in Kuoh Town. The only clue that he had was the child who shared her surname.

As she said, he didn't seem to be her child due to his white hair and red eye. He was now curious about the identity and origin of the child who might be a Sacred Gear user.

For those who want to know, Sacred Gears are especial weapons and artifacts created by God himself, giving their user the ability to create weapons, enhance their physical or magic power, and even heal wounds. At least, those are the most common examples.

However, there was a catch, and is that only humans can obtain Sacred Gears. After all, those were the gifts from God to humanity for them to protect themselves of other supernatural beings.

Unfortunately, those who are greedy or ignorant even in the modern days constantly hunt down these people.

If the child called Zircon was truly a Sacred Gear user, and even owner of a unique one, he could be of great help for the church faction.

However, he couldn't act careless because he was relate to Kusakabe Asako, the strongest human in the world who doesn't own a Sacred Gear.

There was no one in the supernatural world who didn't know about Asako battle prowess.

When she was 16 years old, she was able to fight against Serafall Leviathan, who is known as the second strongest Satan, as an equal, gaining herself the fame of being the first human without a Sacred Gear in all history to achieve such feat.

However, it wasn't only her strength that made everyone feel cautious about her, but her unpredictable actions. Her personality was very spontaneous from the point of view of the others. But something that they knew for sure was that she was a battle maniac who doesn't fear neither the Satans nor Archangels nor Gods.

Even if she is affiliate to an organization such as OSD, if she wanted to, she would simply leave them and neither of them could stop her.

Anyway, returning to the main topic if the child was related to Asako in any kind of way, then it would be nearly impossible for the church any attempt to recruit him.

However, that would be a problem to take care for another moment.

Seeing that Zircon retreated his tail, which disappeared in a mist of bright red ashes, Touji started to examinee Irina's body, in search of any injury. Fortunately, there wasn't anything wrong in the exterior nor interior, she just simply was unconscious due to the mental shock.

"Zircon!"

"Irina!"

Two female voices were heard from the distance. Touji and Asako turned their gazes to the origin of the voices, and there they saw Yuria and Akiko who just spotted them.

Touji burned the corpse of the devil using a holy enchantment, while Asako used her magic power to clean Zircon's body who was still tainted with blood.

Once Yuria and Akiko arrived, the corpse was already a pile of ashes being blown away by the wind, and Zircon's body was as clean as if he just went out of the washroom.

"Irina!" Yelled Akiko and ran towards her unconscious daughter. "What happened?"

Touji was in a dilemma. He didn't want to worry his wife by telling her the truth, but he knew that she wasn't a fool and he wasn't either a good liar, so he decided to be honest.

"Irina was attacked by a stray devil. Fortunately, that kid protect her the enough time for me to arrive."

Akiko then looked at Zircon who was now being hugged and scolded by Yuria who was at the brink of tears. Akiko sighed in relieve after knowing that her daughter was fine, but now she was curious about Zircon.

She already knew about the supernatural world. After all, her husband is a veteran exorcist in the church, and because he knew the she was a smart woman, he didn't anything of his job to her since the day they started dating.

"Is he a Sacred Gear user?" She asked to her husband in whispers.

"That's what I want to know. He doesn't have the aura of a devil nor a fallen angel. He seems to be human, but I'm not sure yet."

Of course, even if both of them were whispering the other three individuals who had their senses enhanced by mana or their physique still could hear them.

"What is a Sacred Gear?" Asked Zircon aloud due to his curiosity.

Touji was a little shocked by his question; he couldn't believe that someone who was related to the supernatural world didn't know about Sacred Gears. It was common knowledge after all.

"I will explain him." Said Asako.

She then gave him a little introduction about what Sacred Gears were. Well, she only said that they were something convenient for normal humans to use.

Because she didn't has a Sacred Gear, and even then she was strong, she only saw them as useful weapons and artifacts.

Either way, after that explanation Zircon had a basic idea of what they were, so his next answer was...

"I don't have any Sacred Gear."

Touji was dumbfounded; he couldn't believe that Zircon hadn't one. He looked at Asako to confirm it and she just nodded in affirmation.

However, this left him even more confused. He wasn't neither a devil nor a fallen angel, after all, Zircon didn't has the distinctive aura of neither of them. Then he wondered, 'what was the power that he just saw?'

"What was that tail made with metal and the black claw then?" He asked. He has never seen any other supernatural being with those kind of characteristics.

Yuria, hearing his words looked to Zircon in the eyes with a serious expression. "Zircon, did you use 'that'?"

Zircon just nodded, but now his face was blushing, and he was breathing heavily.

"Haah. What I'm going to do with you?" She sighed, but by her expression she seemed... excited?

She then exposed her neck and pulled a string of hair on her ear in a suggestive way. Zircon couldn't contain himself anymore and two fangs grew from his mouth, then he started to drink her blood.

It was the drawback of using his powers as a revenant. Each time he uses them, his urges to drink blood increases. Normally this wouldn't be a problem because if he drains the blood of his objectives once he pierces them, then those urges decrease. However, because this time he didn't reached to drain the devil's blood, he needed another source of blood. Fortunately, Yuria was with him, and he liked her blood.

It passed only a pair of seconds, but Yuria's eyes looked at him with a lustful gaze, and she seemed on the edge of attack him.

"Ahem." Asako made a fake cough.

Yuria then snapped out from her impure thoughts and finally noticed that they were not alone, making her face turn beet red in embarrassment, while trying to hide her face with her hands.

Meanwhile, both Touji and Akiko were utterly shocked by the scene that was just developed in front of them.

"What the-"
