Chapter 19: Divine Dividing
Author's note : I am not sure of all the events during the war of the 3 factions but do not think and tell you that this is the reality of this world.
Pov Dia,
While the war of the 3 factions was raging and every day we counted dead on each side.
These two dragons were the Celestial Dragon: Welsh Dragon Ddraig and Vanishing Dragon Albion.
These two dragons were fighting and the great war was halted by doing collateral damage in each faction.
The faction decided to stop them, otherwise he might have more casualties.
And after a long fight they manage to kill them while paying a huge price. It is in this fight that we devil they lost the 4 Great Satan.
God decided after the fight to lock the soul of the two dragons in sacred gear. One is the [Boost Gear] to increase the power of the host and the other [Divine Dividing] to reduce the strength of the opponent.
But back to the present, Scathach-sensei gave Rimuru the corpse of a [Divine Dividing] host in the hope that he would be able to use some of the sacred gear that person had.
Dia:" That should be impossible. This person has been dead for a while, she is sure that the sacred gear has disappeared from the body and therefore Rimuru could do nothing. "
Scathach:" That's why I talked about some of the power of [Divine Dividing]. This body was the owner of this sacred gear, so it was bathed by its power. Even if this sacred gear has disappeared, there should still be some trace of it."
Even if she says that I have trouble that something like that could be possible because if it is the case we just broke the sacred gear system and Rimuru could have all the power.
If this experience proves successful. I would look for a Twillight healing host to give Rimuru the healing ability.
Scathach:" What I expect with the remnants of the power of this sacred gear is that it can take some of its opponent's strength to make it its own."
Rimuru, meanwhile, said nothing. He had closed his eyes. Then he opened his eyes.
Rimuru:" I'll try."
He reached out to Scathach-sensei and then something happened.
[Divide]
Scathach:" Who told you you could take my strength, you son of a bitch!"
She seemed very angry. I thought Rimuru would never dare provoke her.
Rimuru:" It is because you possess the most power I have decided to use on you. We don't know if there would be a negative impact on weaker people like Dia-sama and Sera-sama."
Scathach:" And so that they are the conclusions you can draw from it."
Rimuru:" From the course I took with DIa-sama. [Divine Dividing] would split the opponent's strength and power by 2 every 10 seconds. But mine does not work like that. It reduces the strength and energy of the opponent to a constant value. That's about what should happen if a host of this sacred gear is much weaker than the opponent. "
Sera:" I don't understand what you mean by constant value. "
Rimuru:" Let's imagine that any person or magical attack has a unit value. For example, a sphere of POD to 10B of unit. What I would do is take 500 out of the POD sphere. And I can only use that power every 30 seconds. "
Scathach:" Would we know the value of attacks and people?"
Rimuru:" It would take a lot of testing to get a good estimate of the value of a thing."
Sera:" Once a person's value falls to 0 unit, does it move?"
Rimuru: "No, he would just have the strength of a normal human without power."
Dia:" Does your Divide have as much effect on my POD sphere as your example?"
Rimuru:" No, it was just to give an example in digital rather than talk about it again and again without you understanding."
Scathach:" My experience was a success. Basic I just wanted to find a human body and see if the slime could take on a human appearance. But since I found a host from [Divine Dividing] I decided to do a second test. It's really a rewarding day."
