Inner Voice: All Heroines Hear My Inner Voice Chapter 1028: The Fall of the White Dragon Emperor

Vali’s lips twitched, and his expression looked a little sour.

At that moment, the White Dragon Emperor residing within his Sacred Gear couldn’t help but say: {Eiji, ignore Vali. You know he’s an idiot who only thinks about fighting! I already warned him not to try fighting you again just because he’s curious how strong he is now, but he didn’t listen to me! Even after I told him that the aura that had previously been suppressing everyone in Norse was actually yours.}

"...?" Yotsuba.

She was confused—was it just her imagination, or was the White Dragon Emperor afraid of offending a man named Eiji!?

He even called his host an idiot.

Just how strong is Zekka’s boyfriend!?

"Albion, you..."

Vali was annoyed; he knew Albion was trying to save him, but it also embarrassed him.

He’d lost face in front of Eiji and those two women.

"Oh, I know just how crazy Vali is when it comes to fighting. He’s just one level below his grandfather, Rizevim." Eiji mentioned the name of the old man who had been killed by one of his women, Seekvaira.

Vali felt uncomfortable.

He didn’t like being compared to Rizevim.

He held back his anger, even though he also knew Eiji was incredibly strong and there was no way he could defeat him.

But...!

"Eiji, ignore Albion. I admit I was wrong to provoke you. But I just want to duel with you and see how strong I am now! I’m also not interested in Zekka Miyamoto or any of the other women."

{Vali!!}

Albion tried to stop Vali, but it was in vain.

He wondered why his host was such an idiot.

If he wanted to challenge the gods, he wouldn’t stop him. But of all the beings in the world, he was thinking of fighting Eiji yet again.

Vali, you’re so stupid!

Even the two Dragon Gods, Ophis and the Great Red, have become his women!

His rival, the Red Dragon Emperor, Ddraig, had even been captured and handed over to one of his women (Xenovia).

Albion knew all of that from Ddraig; they communicated online. I don’t know exactly how they did it.

"Vali." Eiji’s smile faded and his expression turned indifferent, "Are you trying to say that Zekka and my other women aren’t attractive? Are you calling them ugly? How dare you say that about them."

"No!"

{Noooooo! Eiji, Vali didn’t mean to say that! He was just...!}

Vali and Albion shouted in unison.

At that moment, they panicked and their bodies began to tremble as they were stared at by Eiji’s blue eyes, which looked like a dragon’s pupils.

Come to think of it, his current appearance even resembled that of a half-dragon. However, what shocked them right now was the oppressive aura radiating from him.

It was truly terrifying.

Even Albion’s soul, hidden within the Divine Dividing, trembled as if it were being stared at by a being far superior to him.

"Just what?" Eiji asked without changing his expression. On the surface, he looked angry.

But deep down, he found it amusing.

Am I really that scary?

[Host, you seem to have forgotten just how much you’ve shown off your power so far. Except for Vali or people who don’t know much about you, none of them would dare to exchange blows with you.]

Hearing what Miss System said, Eiji reflected on the past and thought he was quite humble.

He felt that people’s reactions in this world were way over the top.

{Vali, he... he’s impotent!}

"Pfft!"

A laugh escaped Yotsuba’s lips.

Zekka even bit her lip, trying to hold back her laughter.

Eiji shook his head.

"Albion, what are you saying!? How could I—"

Vali was stunned, his face flushing with embarrassment and anger. He wanted to say that he wasn’t impotent—that he was actually normal.

However, Albion cut him off.

{Shut up! You’ve clearly never been interested in any woman and only think about fighting anyone you consider strong.}

{In a different way, you’re just as crazy as Rizevim. Actually, I often worry—will you stay single your whole life? Or maybe there’s something wrong with your body.}

{Think about it—the things Rizevim did to you in the past might have traumatized you to the point where you’ve lost interest in women.}

{Even back then, you only saw sexy women like Kuroka as teammates. You even saw a woman as beautiful as Lavinia as nothing more than an older sister.}

"Nonsense! Rizevim didn’t influence me that much! I..."

Vali didn’t know what to say.

He began to think there was something wrong with him. But does that even matter!?

Albion, why did you make fun of me in front of Eiji and the others!?

Speaking of Kuroka and Lavinia, Vali actually felt a little regret. But he didn’t dwell on it too much; both women had already joined Eiji’s harem.

What he didn’t know was that Albion often thought of him as a loser for letting the beautiful women around him be taken by another man.

{So, Eiji...}

Albion ignored Vali’s dissatisfaction.

{Can you let Vali go? Since he’s impotent, he has no idea how great the women in your harem are. He has poor eyesight, unlike you.}

"...." Vali.

Albion, not only are you mocking me, but you’re also sucking up to Eiji?

Eiji smiled again, but it was just a faint smile, and he chuckled before saying, "I see. I guess I misunderstood—I didn’t really know Vali..."

[The White Dragon Emperor, Vali Lucifer, is actually impotent!? That’s quite an interesting piece of news.]

The news immediately spread among the hundreds of heroines. Many of them were shocked and laughed at Vali.

In an instant, Vali became the butt of everyone’s jokes.

He himself didn’t know this, and just felt very uncomfortable with the way Eiji was looking at him.

That gaze told him that he was truly pathetic.

He wasn’t happy at all, and clenched his fists in frustration. He wanted to fly into a rage, but he hesitated because Albion had gone to great lengths to persuade Eiji.

"But."

"..!!" Vali and Albion.

There’s a "but"!?

Eiji, what else are you unhappy about!?

Zekka and Yotsuba looked at the handsome man in his half-dragon form with curiosity.

Just then, dark clouds suddenly obscured the moon and stars. That sudden change in the weather was unusual.

Anyone would feel that the atmosphere on the hill was incredibly tense. In fact, Eiji was secretly using Made in Heaven.

A humanoid figure—invisible to Vali, Albion, and the others—floated behind him, radiating a rainbow-colored aura.

Even though they couldn’t see it, they sensed that the oppressive energy emanating from Eiji was far stronger.

Vali and Albion had a bad feeling.

"I’m still a little annoyed by what Vali did—this isn’t the first time he’s suddenly challenged me to a duel. I’ll give him a chance to see just how strong he is now compared to me, but don’t blame me if I hit him too hard and kill him."

"What do you think, Vali?"

It wasn’t just Albion; Eiji spoke to Vali as well.

Still, his words sounded like a threat!

Vali and Albion both felt a chill that pierced their very souls.

Even so—

"I agree! Eiji, I admit you’re stronger than me, and I might not be able to defeat you. But don’t underestimate me—at the very least, I won’t die immediately after taking your attack this time."

{Vali!! You’re an idiot...}

Albion sounded helpless.

{Now, all I can do is support you with all my power.}

"Thank you, Albion."

After a brief, somewhat touching exchange between the two of them. Without wasting any more time, Vali immediately unleashed all of his demonic power. He knew who he was up against, so he took it seriously from the very start.

Using Divine Dividing, he soared into the Norse sky filled with dark clouds. Instantly, the space around him was distorted by an unimaginable magical pressure.

{Celestial Dragon, Overdrive!}

{Diabolos Dragon Lucifer!}

In the blink of an eye, he entered his newest Balance Breaker mode—Diabolos Dragon Lucifer.

It was his strongest form.

Organic silver armor mixed with gold and a deep purple aura instantly enveloped Vali’s body. On his back were also twelve wings of Lucifer.

The aura he was emitting at that moment had surpassed that of the original Lucifer.

"This is the power of the White Dragon Emperor..." Yotsuba said in a trembling voice.

She couldn’t help but feel like an ant.

Eiji let go of Zekka and motioned for her to wait behind him. Zekka stared anxiously at her boyfriend’s back.

Especially when the muzzle of a cannon emerged from the cavity in Vali’s chest, which then began to gather a massive amount of energy at its tip.

"Eiji, I suggest you move those two women somewhere else first." Vali said in a confident tone.

Eiji said casually, "No need—I can protect them. Neither of them will get hurt in this fight, which will be over in no time."

"You... I hope you don’t regret this. I won’t hold back! Take my strongest attack, Eiji!"

Vali shouted into the sky.

{Satan Lucifer Smasmer!}

Albion’s voice echoed.

Immediately, the cannon on Vali’s chest fired a sphere of silvery-white and black energy.

The attack’s power was enough to kill a god-class being in a single strike. However, in the face of that terrifying giant energy sphere, Eiji didn’t flinch.

A sharp, blue lightning aura suddenly erupted from his body.

*BZZZT!!*

The sword in his hand was now enveloped by an electrical distortion of billions of volts, emitting a piercing screech that pierced anyone’s eardrums.

"Too weak, Vali." Eiji said in a low voice.

But thanks to the laws of vibration, everyone present could hear him.

In the past, he had defeated Vali using only <Full Counter>. But this time, he was only using his power in the form of Djin Baal.

Eiji made just one simple move: he swung his sword from bottom to top with one hand, unleashing a massive bolt of lightning that split Vali’s gigantic energy sphere in two—and even swallowed it whole.

Although he didn’t mention it, that move could be called a variation of <Bararaq Inqerad-Saiqa>.

*ZRAAAKKKKKKKK!!!*

The thunderous roar of the lightning was so deafening that it forced Yotsuba and Zekka to cover their ears tightly.

People—or even the Norse gods in the distance—could hear it. They also saw how a blue bolt of lightning, curving like a slash, shot up into the sky. Not even Thor had ever unleashed a lightning bolt that big and that powerful.

The dark clouds in the sky split instantly.

Eiji’s pure lightning bolt struck right in the center of Vali’s energy cannon. Startled, Vali frantically activated his defensive ability.

{Divide! Divide! Divide!}

The sounds came from the gems on his armor; Albion tried to cut and split the lightning energy to mitigate its impact.

Vali stretched his arms forward and tried to strengthen his defenses using all his demonic power.

"Aaaahhhhh!!"

{Divide! Divide! Divide!}

The two of them screamed in panic.

However, the intensity and destructive power of Eiji’s lightning were on an entirely different level. The destructive speed of Baal’s lightning element, amplified by Eiji’s magic, was so overwhelming that Vali’s Divine Dividing ability was completely unable to process or divided the attack at all.

*BOOMMM!!!*

Vali was engulfed in the explosion.

However, after Eiji’s lightning bolt vanished, his figure was nowhere to be found either.

"Ah, I hit him too hard and killed him."

Eiji sheathed his sword as he said that.

It seemed that the White Dragon Emperor’s death was no big deal to him. He wasn’t even slightly injured, and he defeated his opponent in a single strike.

Yotsuba’s mouth dropped open.

Her rival’s boyfriend is that strong!?

"A-Amazing..."

She didn’t know why, but her heart was racing and her cheeks felt hot.

{Yotsuba, are you...}

"Genma, don’t say anything. Whatever you’re thinking, you’re wrong."

{Really? If you keep acting all tsundere, you might not get the chance to be one of his girlfriends.}

"Ahh! I told you you’re wrong! Stop talking, Genma!"

As Yotsuba argued with her own sword, she realized too late that Zekka and Eiji were staring at her.

"Ahem!" Eiji pretended to cough.

He pretended not to hear what Genma had said.

Zekka looked at Yotsuba with a strange expression—could it be true? This woman was in love with her senpai.

Still, she thought it was only natural. After all, her boyfriend was truly extraordinary. She herself felt proud of that.

{Zekka, you’ve changed.}

Her breasts—or more precisely, Tensei—whispered to her.

Zekka didn’t deny it. That’s because she had accepted that she was one of her senpai’s women.

"You’re Yotsuba Sasaki, right?"

"Ugh, I... Y-Yes!"

Aware of the two people staring at her, Yotsuba felt so embarrassed that she stammered.

She also took the initiative to fix her bangs, which surprised Genma. After all, Yotsuba had never cared about her own appearance before!

She was completely captivated by her rival’s boyfriend.

Still, she seemed to have forgotten that she’d injured that guy’s girlfriend in their previous fight.

She should be worried about herself right now!

"Under normal circumstances, I wouldn’t forgive anyone who hurt my woman, and I’d make them pay in a painful way."

"However, I know you’re Zekka’s destined rival, just like the Red Dragon Emperor and the White Dragon Emperor who died by my hand."

Come to think of it, he’s now killed two hosts of the Heavenly Dragons.

"Your existence is important enough for Zekka to grow stronger. So, I won’t kill you, and I’ll let the two of you keep dueling as much as you want in the future."

What Eiji said surprised both women.

Genma was relieved that Yotsuba had at least escaped death.

"But neither of you is allowed to kill the other, okay? If not, I’ll bring one of you back to life and punish the other severely."

Eiji’s smile looked sadistic as he said that.

Yotsuba and Zekka shuddered. Still, they thought he was incredibly handsome.

Setting aside Zekka, who had known Eiji for a long time, Yotsuba had no doubt that he possessed the ability to bring the dead back to life.

"Understood. Thank you for your forgiveness, Eiji-dono."

Eiji-dono?

Zekka had a question mark floating above her head.

She also wondered if the woman in front of her was still the same arrogant woman from before?

In front of Eiji, she was humble and polite!

Eiji nodded in satisfaction and placed one hand on Yotsuba’s shoulder. Just as he had done with Zekka, the wounds on her body healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

He used the Red Hand to do that.

Yotsuba was certainly surprised that her wounds had healed; she stared blankly at the man in front of her.

"I’ve healed all your wounds. Now, come with us. From now on, you’re my captive."

"Eeehhh!?"

Neither Zekka nor Yotsuba had expected such a turn of events. However, strangely enough, Yotsuba didn’t feel much resistance in her heart.

As for Zekka? She certainly couldn’t stop Eiji from taking Yotsuba home.

Still, couldn’t Eiji have felt just a little embarrassed when he said that?

[Hehehe! You have thick facial skin, our King! That’s exactly what a Harem King should have!]

’Thanks for the compliment, Leme.’

[You’re welcome, our King.]

The two of them were joking, but they also sounded serious.

Miss System said nothing. After all, this wasn’t the first time her host had taken a woman captive.

And guess what? Before long, that woman would join his harem.

It’s an old song.

...

The next day.

News that Eiji had killed the host of the White Dragon Emperor spread. It was also revealed that the lightning bolt he unleashed last night had come from him.

The people of Norse—or rather, the gods and goddesses there—were not saddened by Vali’s death. They—especially Thor—admired his power.

In fact, he, his father, and his brothers had visited the inn where Eiji and his women were staying.

But at that time, Asia turned the guests away on Eiji’s behalf. She said he was busy and couldn’t be disturbed; she didn’t say exactly what he was doing.

Thor and the other gods could only leave, feeling sad. They couldn’t even see Freya, who was reportedly staying at the same inn as Eiji.

Of course, knowing the trouble Fernyiges had caused, they offered their help. However, Asia spoke on behalf of Eiji and Team DxD, saying they would handle the matter for the Norse. That was their duty as part of the alliance.

Odin was certainly pleased; he had no reason to stop them from protecting his territory. He immediately dragged his sons away from the inn’s gate.

"Miss System, as usual."

In one of the bedrooms, with a large bed. While holding the naked Zekka in his arms, Eiji ordered Miss System to do something.

[What? What do you want me to do?]

"How can you not understand? Check my rewards."

[Oh, okay.]

Eiji fell silent, his hands cupping Zekka’s large breast and gently squeezing it. His tail wrapped around her waist and encircled her crotch. This caused friction against her vagina and anus.

"Mm... Senpai..."

Zekka murmured in her sleep. But she still kept her eyes closed; she was too tired. Her black hair with pink gradients was also a mess, and her body was still sweaty.

How could she not be?

Last night...

...
