[187] The Truth of the Holy Sword Project!



[187] The Truth of the Holy Sword Project!

Looking at the silent Koneko, August knew that she had also roughly understood the situation.

However, at this moment, Rias's face became somewhat unpleasant. August's words directly overturned the previous judgment, which meant that devils had committed a taboo act, human experimentation. Regardless of where it happened, that was an absolute taboo.

"Wait a minute. Everything you said is just your word against theirs. Do you have any evidence?"

"Evidence? If you want that, you can go ask Sirzechs. After all, he was the one who dealt with this matter initially. Otherwise, do you think he would place a time bomb next to his own sister?"

It was a perfect answer. If Koneko really had a berserk sacrifice, how could Sirzechs, as Satan, let her live, let alone stay by his sister's side? As Satan, finding a peerage for his sister wouldn't be a problem.

"What is going on? What did they do to Kuroka-nee?"

At this moment, Koneko suddenly raised her head. Life energy surged within her, cat ears appeared on her head, and a white tail appeared behind her. She had also accepted her own race.

Rias was surprised. Koneko had become stronger and had reached the level of a middle-class devil.

"To create a super being that surpasses normal standards is not such a simple matter. Even though your sister, Kuroka, had outstanding qualifications, she still did not meet their standards."

"Kuroka-nee~"

"To protect you, your sister accepted a series of extreme methods to unleash her potential. That's also the reason why she went berserk."

"You mean, Kuroka-nee went berserk?"

"That's right. This is also why they wanted to target you."

"Target me?"

"Yes, Kuroka has reached her limit and cannot continue to improve. So, they set their sights on you. After all, you are also an important 'material.'"

"Kuroka-nee~"

Tears had already filled Koneko's eyes. Apart from the heartache for her sister, there was also guilt for misunderstanding her sister for so many years.

On the sidelines, Rias watched with a complicated expression. On one hand, she wanted to refute because this was simply tarnishing the demon race. On the other hand, she was afraid of hurting Koneko, so she didn't speak.

"Rias, if you don't believe it, you can investigate the Naberius family. After the exposure of the incident, the Naberius family was secretly eradicated and sealed off."

"How is that possible? That's one of the 72 Pillars, an upper-class family."

"It's not impossible. The Naberius family wanted to create a super devil. Why do you think they did it?"

"For-"

There was no need to say why. If this were true, it was definitely to overthrow the current regime.

Human ambition is endless, and demons are no different.

"Rias, remember, the human heart is dark. For those who stand at the top, there is no right or wrong, only interests. Those who try to touch their interests will die without hesitation."

"..."

Rias didn't speak. August's words had caused a huge impact on her.

August also didn't pay too much attention to her. Compared to her brother, she was too immature.

Her brother, Sirzechs, was from the new Satan faction and had now ascended to Satan throne, becoming the head of the Four Satans. This achievement was simply too great.

"You are Nekoshou. Both senjutsu and demonic energy are your talents. I don't understand this, but you should practice it well. It's the foundation of your existence."

"I understand, Senpai."

Koneko nodded. At this moment, she no longer harbored any hostility towards August. She felt nothing but respect and gratitude.

If it weren't for him, she might still be in the dark about the truth, with a gap in her heart towards her sister who had always protected her.

Watching Koneko nod, August acknowledged it. This was the second one, there was one more left.

Looking at the last one, Yuuto Kiba, August's gaze caused Kiba's body to tremble slightly.

The scars in August and Koneko's hearts had been exposed by August. Although they had become stronger, the process was somewhat cruel. On the other hand, Kiba carried hatred and inner wounds. They were no smaller than the other two.

"Yuuto Kiba, your situation, I suppose I don't need to say much, right?"

"August, my classmate-"

"You are the sole survivor of the Holy Sword Project, right?"

"Yes."

Hearing 'Holy Sword Project,' Yuuto Kiba's originally gentle temperament disappeared without a trace, replaced by deep-seated resentment.

This was a two-level reversal of change. One second, he was a warm man, and the next second, he became a madman.

"Do you want to know the whole truth of everything that happened back then?"

"The truth?"

Kiba was stunned. Behind the Holy Sword Project, was there still some secret?

On the other hand, Rias's expression was somewhat strange. Because August knew too much about her retainers. The pasts of Akeno, Koneko, and now even KIba, he knew them all. How much did he know?

August looked at Kiba, who was full of astonishment. The corners of his mouth curled slightly.

"Please tell me everything that happened back then."

Kiba's face became extremely excited, but his final reason restrained him, keeping him rational.

"In your eyes, the Holy Sword Project is a plan to select Sword Saints, right?"

"Yes."

"But unfortunately, this is just a smokescreen. The true nature of this plan is not to select Sword Saints."

"What is it?"

"The Holy Sword Project is designed to gather children with the adaptability to Holy Swords, and after than they would extract Holy Element from them, and use it to obtain the adaptability to Holy Swords."

"Extract Holy Element?"

"Yes, including you, all the children involved in the project possess Holy Element, just to varying degrees."

These words instantly made Kiba extremely excited.

On one hand, he learned that everyone, including himself, had adaptability. On the other hand, the reason they were chosen was to extract Holy Element.

He still had companions from back then who were so devout, believers in God, and in the end, they ended up like this.
