FATE of DxD

'Man this park must be cursed or something.'

By once again sinking into his thoughts though, Jun had effectively ignored the man's greeting.

"Cat got your tongue brat? Feeling scared?" The man taunted.

"Holding a grudge against a kid for three whole years when everything was your own fault . . . Damn you're a fucking joke." Jun mocked.

'Looks like he brought a friend . . .' He sensed another presence.

'No . . two friends?' Jun picked out another better hidden presence.

"Damn brat! Looks like you haven't repented!" The man, Kawamura shouted.

"For what? Not spanking you hard enough before, shitstain? I bet a failed priest impregnated a twelve year old autistic girl to pop you out this fucking trashy." Jun said and Kawamura froze.

Even the guy that was trying to move behind Jun to cut off his possible escape froze along with the hidden observer that also seemed to stiffen up, Jun did not notice this minor movement though, and only saw that the guy that wanted to take his rear froze and saw it as an opportunity.

The runes in Jun's clothes flared to life, enhancing his strength and speed while being fortified to the point of becoming tough armor.

His gloves became like solid hunks of steel that would crush meat and bone where they struck as Jun dashed towards Kawamura with a full powered use of Magic Burst.

Flustered by the sudden assault, Kawamura drew his light sword and pistol and fired a barrage of bullets towards Jun who covered his face with his arms and did not even slow down or make an attempt to dodge.

Combining his increased physical abilities, his rune boosted clothing, and the Reinforcement magecraft cast on both his body and apparel, th puny light bullets wouldn't even cause damage.

Like Jun had expected and to Kawamura's shock, the light bullets just bounced off the reinforced clothing as Jun moved in for the kill.

With those moves shocking the second exorcist out of his previous stupor, he dashed out of his hiding place and chased Jun, firing his light gun as he did so, to no effect.

Reaching Kawamura who failed to retreat in time due to the difference in their speeds, Jun prepared to strike with the momentum of his dash and another used of Magic Burst to finish his first opponent in one blow.

Kawamura swung down his light sword to ward off Jun but the boy had fought Kawamura in countless simulations and, although Kawamura's ability had improved over the last three years, his style remained the same and so did the trajectory of his strikes.

This allowed Jun to just slightly tilt his body and avoid Kawamura's slash without loosing any speed or even compromising his balance.

And so, as Kawamura despaired at the failure of his counter slash, Jun's full powered strike hit him square of the chest. Jun would have preferred the head but the height difference was significant so he went for maximum damage in the second most vital area.

Raw magical energy bursted out of Jun's fist on impact as Kawamura focused all of his Holy Power on his torso to strengthen it against the attack.

But, with Jun's far greater abilities, it was all for naught.

Kawamura's rib cage was shattered and his lungs were ruptured as evn his heart took significant damage. The last minute defence managed to preserve the exorcists life but even with the assistance of Holy Power to keep him alive, he would last a few minutes at the most.

With his first enemy defeated, Jun turned towards the second that was rushing towards him.

'Huh? It seems like his focus is on the downed Kawamura. I can use this.' Jun thought as he internally smirked.

Rather than facing his second opponent head on, Jun covertly dropped what seemed like a stone polished into a rounded disk and dashed to the side and out of his second enemy's way who ignored him and rushed towards his fallen companion instead.

Laying his hand on his fallen comrade, the exorcist injected his own holy power to try and stabilize him as he glared at Jun as if telling him to keep his distance. WHat he saw though, chilled him. It was a smirk of victory if he ever saw one.

"Bang!" Jun shouted in victory.

And it was the last thing the two exorcists heard. The polished stone Jun had left behind was inscribed with a rune and packed with his magical energy.

Even with his ability to write in the air with magical energy, Jun found that runes became much weaker and inefficient when compared to being inscribed on solid matter so he polished a few choice stones and inscribed runes of them to have them ready for battle at the shortest notice.

That stone was a flame rune ready to explode at Jun's command which came with the shout. Kawamura and his companion were swallowed by the blaze that followed with the former dying almost immediately due to his inability to defend himself and the latter being knocked out with severe burns across his entire body.

'Just as planned!' Jun praised himself but suddenly, the third presence he had felt jumped into the fray and stabilized the still living fellow.

"Let us end things here!" He authoritatively said

"I'll be mentioning this to our captain, he can decide what to do with you. For now though, you would be wise to come along quietly so as not to further compound your sins." He declared.

"Oh!" Jun responded in realization.

"What?" The exorcist was confused.

"I originally thought you were a third party that just caught wind of this little scuffle but since you're part of the same group . . . Why didn't you stop them before they picked a fight with me?" Jun mockingly said.

"You have been here since the beginning so you know that I was the target of an unprovoked attack and now your talking as if defending myself from those fools is a great sin that merits punishment." He added while shaking his head.

"So you don't intend to assume responsibility for your actions then?" The man ominously questioned.

'The hypocrisy is unreal . . .' Jun thought to himself.

"You don't need to worry. I'll be talking to Touji-ojii-san myself tomorrow." Jun informed the exorcist.

The man wanted to say something stupid again but Jun just cut him off and added.

"I'll be talking about the three fools that willingly chose death the previous night." He said as his eyes narrowed.

The exorcist stalled for a bit and then realized what Jun had meant with those words and that he was next on the boy's kill list.

"So be it!" He self righteously exclaimed as if he was disappointed in a sinner that did not take the path of redemption that he had offered.

'Really . . . The angels seemed nice in the series but the church just sucks. It's going to take some serious effort to stop myself from bashing them on sight.' Jun thought.

The exorcist got ready for battle and drew two light swords dual wielding them.

'Close combat specialist?' Jun considered.

'If so, there's no reason for me to just get into his range. First though, I don't want any more surprises . . .'

Thinking this, Jun took out four Rune Stones on one hand and tossed them in the air. The glowed with magical energy and flew off in four separate directions, creating a Bounded Field that would isolate sound and visuals as well as prevent any normal person from wandering in the direction of the battle.

It had a weak barrier effect as well, hampering anyone attempting to leave or enter without Jun's permission.

"What is that?" The exorcist inquired.

"Just making sure no one interrupts us." Jun responded and then, before an answer could come back, he unleashed a barrage of Magic Bullets.

Although Jun had learned Gandr, he had found that his Magic Bullets tended to be more powerful and, due to their much simpler nature, they were easy to control and faster to fire so Jun ended up falling back to them instead of using the newly learned Gandr.

The exorcist was much faster than anticipated and easily dodged all of the bullets, reinforcing his physical abilities with Holy Power and closing in on Jun's position.

Before, Jun would have no choice but to either face his opponent in close combat or try to keep distance with bursts of speed but now, he had more avenues as a magus.

Dropping a Rune Stone on the ground, it created a small bounded field with about a twenty meter radius around him and, when his opponent stepped into it, he was immediately slowed as if the air itself became solid and viscous.

Taking the opportunity, Jun immediately barraged he exorcist with his most powerful Magic Bullets. Although he still suffered backlash for that, Jun's enhanced physical body could now take that strain without any issue.

It was then that his third opponent showed his superiority by cladding himself in a thing curtain of Holy power that actually made him glow golden and taking all the bullets with only minor damage.
