Gilgamesh in DxD
Chapter 272

Already with the King of Heroes himself, he was also having intense training in a more distant part of the Underworld.

It was a large mountain range that was the training site of the Sekiryuutei, that place was Dragon Mountain, the home of the Dragons living in the Underworld as well as their leader the former Dragon King Tannin.

On one of the farthest mountains in the territory it was possible to feel an overwhelming presence, all the Dragons and beings that lived in that area had left for fear of the being that was there.

The whole mountain was covered with an intense draconic aura, this aura was a mixture of two colors; emerald green and sapphire blue, these two colors represented two draconic auras that covered the whole region.

The closer one got to the mountain the more powerful the aura would become until it reached its source.

Inside the mountain, in a part that was a large cave it was possible to see the origin of the immense draconic aura.

The aura was coming from a being that seemed to be wearing armor similar to Dragon scales, the armor was predominantly crimson red, but white also tinged the armor with a blue tint.

The being in the armor had its aura slowly diminishing until it condensed around the armor which fell to its knees while breathing heavily.

The armor slowly began to break apart as it destroyed itself revealing who was underneath.

It was a young man in his late teens, he had golden hair and crimson red eyes like two rubies that adorned his face, in his left hand was a red gauntlet with two emerald green jewels and ten golden spikes.

That was Gilgamesh the King of Heroes and his Longinus [Boosted Gear], where the soul of Ddraig the Welsh Dragon resided.

"Looks like we finally got Ddraig" said Gilgamesh as he breathed breathlessly.

[Yes, I am still not able to believe what you have accomplished, mixing my power with Albion's] said Ddraig visibly surprised in Gilgamesh's mind.

What the King of Heroes had been training for these almost twenty days was a new form that he achieved after absorbing Albion's power.

During Gilgamesh's battle with Vali, when the Sekiryuutei delivered the final blow to the Hakuryuukou, one of the jewels of [Divine Dividing] had come loose from the armor and Gilgamesh caught it with his magic.

Gilgamesh's goal was to mix his power and acquire the power of Albion, and that was what he was training for during these days.

After all if Issei Hyoudou was able to do this he, the King of Heroes, should do it with much more power.

His form was different from the one used by Issei in the cannon, in his Issei could separate the power of the Hakuryuukou in the form of little Dragon cubs that could use [Divide] and [Reflect].

But what Gilgamesh did was different, he actually mixed Albion's power with his own by creating a new form, different from Balance Breaker and Juggernaut Drive, a form where he could use both Sekiryuutei and Hakuryuukou's power at the same time.

But it obviously had costs, first was the extremely high expenditure of magic power and stamina that Gilgamesh expended when using the White Dragon's power, and while this form was not as strong as the Juggernaut Drive, the variety of abilities was extremely useful.

Gilgamesh took a deep breath as he stood up and the [Boosted Gear] disappeared from above his hand.

He was considerably exhausted after training so hard, if Gilgamesh had a sense he would only be at twenty-five percent of his total magic power, but he would soon recover.

In one swift motion Gilgamesh leaped, generating a shockwave as he made his way to the opening above the cave.

Gilgamesh stepped out from inside the cave that was on the mountain as he frowned to get used to the sunlight, after all he had been training all this time.

"I see you have finished your training" said a voice behind Gilgamesh.

Turning around the King of Heroes saw the source of the voice, it was a giant western dragon fifteen meters tall. With the exception of his lower body, specifically his belly, the inner portions of his long tail and legs, which are beige, most of his body is covered with dark purple draconic scales. In addition, it has a triangular head with yellow horns, a pair of large, sharp red eyes with lilac sclera, and serrated but sharp canine teeth. He also has claws with long, sharp yellow nails on his hands, and large bat-like wings with stiff tips. In addition, he wears black armor that extends to his arms and a thong decorated with metal fittings.

"Yes, thank you for letting me train here Tannin" said Gilgamesh smiling.

The one standing in front of Gilgamesh was Tannin, an ancient Dragon King, also known as "Flame Meteor Dragon", and currently a reincarnated demon.

Tannin was an ancient Dragon King, at the time when they were called the "Six Dragon Kings", however he eventually became a reincarnated demon, being the [Queen] of Mephisto Pheles.

He became a Demon for two reasons: the first was to participate in the Rating Games, the second was for the Dragon Apples, a fruit that now exists only in the Underworld, which a certain race of Dragons need to eat to survive.

He then joined the Rating Games, becoming one of the Top 10 and became an Ultimate-Class Devil, where he earned the right to be given his own territory and chose the area where the Dragon Apples grew. He even began conducting research on how to artificially grow Dragon Apples.

A Dragon who set aside his pride as a Dragon so that the new generation of Dragons could have a place to live quietly.

Tannin was a being that Gilgamesh truly respects for what he did so that his race could evolve.

"It's not a problem, you and Ddraig are always welcome here" said the Dragon King laughing. Sᴇaʀch* Thᴇ NøᴠᴇlFire.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

Several days ago Gilgamesh had arrived at Dragon Mountain and asked Tannin to train here, and the Dragon King saw no problem with that and let the King of Heroes train.

[Glad to hear it Tannin] said Ddraig appearing in Gilgamesh's left hand from a green light.

"I have a question; while you are training I felt Albion's aura mixing with your Ddraig" said Tannin curious.

Ddraig and Gilgamesh soon began to explain the purpose of the training and what they were doing.

Tannin's eyes widened in surprise at every word from Gilgamesh and Ddraig.

"Amazing, who would have thought you would accomplish something like this" said Tannin visibly surprised.

The Dragon never imagined that it was possible to mix the aura and power of Ddraig and Albion, both were two total opposites.

[Yes, I am still not able to express my surprise at what my partner is able to do] said Ddraig as he had not imagined this either.

Gilgamesh only laughed at Ddraig's speech.

Tannin looked slightly at Gilgamesh as he thought and nodded.

"Then how about some additional training?" asked Tannin.

Both Gilgamesh and Ddraig looked on in doubt.

"What do you mean?"
