"Next is Akeno."
"Yes."
Akeno seemed slightly displeased after being called by Azazel. After all, even though the rift in her heart had been healed because of her father, the animosity wouldn't fade away so quickly.
"You need to accept the blood that flows within you."
Because of Azazel's direct words, Akeno's face immediately darkened, looking very displeased.
"You have the blood of a Fallen Angel flowing within you, and wielding the power of light is like poison to a devil. In that match against Phenex, you should have been able to easily defeat their Queen with your true power. But why didn't you use the power of a Fallen Angel?"
"I, can continue to fight even without relying on that kind of power." Akeno said with a complicated expression.
"Don't deny it. How can you expect others to accept you if you don't accept yourself? In the end, isn't yourself the only one you can truly rely on? Denial will only make you weaker. Even if it's difficult or painful, you need to accept everything about yourself. Your weakness is your current self. You need to overcome it before the decisive battle. If you can't, you'll only become a burden to everyone in future battles. You need to transform from the 'Thunder Priestess' to the 'Lightning Priestess'."
Akeno fell silent. Seeing this, Azazel didn't say anything further, shrugging his shoulders as he looked at Kiba Yuuto.
"As for you, I have to say, your talent is quite impressive. I don't really have anything to teach you. Right now, you just need to keep using your Balance Breaker until you can use it for an entire day!" Azazel's tone became serious as he spoke.
"Understood!" Kiba Yuuto was full of motivation.
"Next, Xenovia and Irina. Your training program is really quite good. It must be the original training plan from the Church, right?"
The two girls nodded. Azazel revealed a knowing look.
"Alright, Xenovia and Irina, let's add these to your existing training. Anyway, your matches won't be held in the short term, so the effects should be quite good as a long-term goal."
He casually tore off a few pages of paper and handed them to Xenovia and Irina. The training programs for the two Holy Sword wielders were also decided.
"Now then, for the priest, Asia."
"Y-Yes."
Asia nodded with great motivation. That's right, she had always been unable to help much, so if she could play a role in future battles, she herself would be very happy.
"How should I say this, Asia's Sacred Gear, 'Twilight Healing', can be used on a wide area. In other words, it can be used for both short-range and long-range healing. This kind of effect is a powerful ability that can decide the outcome of a match or a battlefield."
"Long-range, huh? That's certainly an ability that can give the opponent a headache."
"That's right. Asia's Sacred Gear, which can heal devils, is unique so far. However, to perform faster and more sustained healing, Asia's stamina needs to be improved. You need to focus on basic training."
"Y-Yes! I'll do my best!"
She was happy because she had an ability that could help. It had to be said that Asia was a truly pure and adorable girl.
"Finally, it's Koneko."
"Yes."
"As a 'Rook', you possess extremely high attack and defense stats. Your physical abilities are also impeccable. However, that's just in terms of you personally. If we consider the other familiars, where would you place yourself among the people here?"
"I know." Koneko lowered her head in remorse. Clearly, she had reflected on Azazel's words. Among all the familiars, perhaps she was the weakest, aside from Asia. But Asia was a special type, and her usefulness far exceeded her own, so when you thought about it…
"Koneko, like the others, your base abilities are already quite high. If you can accept yourself and release the things you've sealed away, you can easily achieve tremendous results."
Koneko didn't give any answer. The girl's originally motivated aura disappeared without a trace because of Azazel's word 'release'.
Her golden eyes lowered, and it was unknown what she was thinking.
"Well, that's all for now. It should be here, right?"
Azazel said this somewhat nonsensically. At the same time…
Rumble!!!
A thunderous sonic boom echoed from the sky. It was the sound of something flying at high speed and rubbing against the air.
Accompanied by the roar, a huge monster landed heavily in the courtyard.
It was fully fifteen meters tall, with a gaping maw, ferocious-looking fangs, thick limbs, and wings that blotted out the sky when spread!
A Dragon!
"Let me introduce you. This is the Magical Dragon who will be responsible for training you from now on, Tannin." Amidst everyone's stunned expressions, Azazel calmly introduced.
"From now on, all of you will have to set aside one hour each day to fight Tannin."
Azazel continued to add with a smile, uttering words that caused all the members to despair.
"Azazel, I must say, you're quite brazen to come to devil territory so openly." Just then, the huge dragon spoke.
"Hmph, I entered the country legitimately with the Devil King's permission. Do you have any complaints? Tannin." Azazel said with his arms crossed.
"Hmph! Fine, since Sirzechs asked me to, I'll make an exception. Don't forget that, Governor-General of the Fallen Angels." The giant dragon named Tannin raised its head and said proudly.
"Yes, yes, yes. I'm leaving these little brats in your care for the next few days."
"Understood." Tannin nodded.
"There's also a deeper meaning to having Tannin train you. After all, the opponent uses the power of a dragon, so understanding it in advance is very necessary." Azazel said, pointing to Tannin.
"This guy used to be one of the Dragon Kings. I think you all know about the Five Great Dragon Kings, right? This guy—Tannin—was one of the Dragon Kings during the 'Six Great Dragon Kings' era. The dragon recorded in the Bible, called Leviathan, is talking about this guy."
"Because Tannin became a devil, the 'Six Great Dragon Kings' became the 'Five Great Dragon Kings'. Tannin is now at the strongest level among reincarnated devils, second only to the Devil Kings."
"The Magical Dragon Tannin, it is said that his flames can rival the impact of a meteor. He is one of the few legendary dragons that are still active, you know."
After finishing the introduction, Azazel added further explanation.
"We're going to die, fighting a guy like that is going to kill us!" Irina cried out from the side.
"Don't worry, I'll teach you all properly, without actually killing you, of course." Tannin said, revealing a malicious smile.
