DxD: A World Where T*tties Defy Gravity [ Chapter 100: SWAT! ] (Patreon)

About thirty men, dressed from head to toe in SWAT-gear, entered the room, all of whom wielding guns that Rex recognised as Beretta M12's, and all of which were pointed at him.

However, the 25th Strongest Being in the World was unfazed. Instead, he gave a long sigh as he looked calmly down the business ends of all the guns that were pointed squarely at him.

"That was a seventy-inch... plasma-screen TV." Rex spoke, in a deadpan tone, yet his calm smile was on his face. After taking a sharp inhale, he spoke again. "So, how can I help you?"

The SWAT officers instantly began to open fire on Rex, who pre-emptively raised his hand to conjure up a magical barrier that stopped the bullets in their tracks, letting them drop to the ground without even remotely scratching the shield.

"Tobio, go for it!" Rex ordered, under the noise of the guns being fired.

"Right!" Tobio replied. A couple of seconds later, some of the officers screamed in fright and pain as a large black dog jumped out of the shadows behind them and attacked the shooting officers, biting and clawing at them with such intensity and ferocity that they dropped like human-sized flies.

Distracted from Rex by the sound of their comrades' screams, the remaining alive officers looked around, wanting to see what was going on, but as they did, Rex got up, drew Excalibur Galatine from his hair, converted it into a sword, and rushed at the officers.

Without hesitation or mercy, Rex slashed and hacked at the officers, with the Sword of Revolving Victory not failing to deliver a quick death on the officers.

Within half a minute, all the officers were dead. However, from two floors above, Rex and Tobio who stood up could hear the distinct sounds of brutal, bloody killing going on, in conjunction with dying screams.

"Huh." Rex remarked, calmly, tying his hair back up into a ponytail. "Looks like Alucard's been attacked too. By more officers, it seems."

"That makes no sense." Tobio replied, as the sounds stopped for a moment, until a loud, single gunshot was heard.

"And one must have pussed out like a bitch. At least he can cancel his room service."

"Yeah." Tobio replied, putting a finger to his ear and casting a small magic-circle. "Hey, Lavinia? ...Yeah, sorry to bother you, but I've got a bit of a hunch that some people are going to be after you very soon. You might want to get out of the hotel ASAP. ...Yeah, Rex and I were just attacked by a Brazilian SWAT Team. And we're fine. ...Okay, seeya."

Tobio took his finger away from his ear, and sighed.

"I don't like having to kill so many people." The black-haired Slash Dog remarked, as he deposited himself on the bed. Rex just got up and waved a finger of his right hand, letting all the blood that had left the bodies of the SWAT officers leave their bodies, and rise into the air, remaining silent.

As all the blood lifted into the air, Rex waved his left hand, creating a large jar, which he deposited all the blood into.

"Should keep Akasha happy for a while." he remarked, placing the now-filled-up jar into a pocket dimension, and turning back to Tobio, speaking in the same light tone. "And Tobio, I don't like killing people either, but they came here to try and kill us. They had guns and everything. You understand that, right?"

"I do." Tobio replied. "But-"

"But nothing." Rex replied, a bit more bite coming into his voice. "If people like those SWAT officers a minute ago want to try and protect the ordinary man, woman and child, that are blissfully ignorant to all that goes on right under their incredibly greedy, overly faithful and stupidly sycophantic noses, from threats that could and would kill them, by killing in turn, then they must be ready to die themselves. Otherwise, they're just cowardly fools."

"I understand." Tobio, a human who was FAR from ordinary, and therefore whom Rex' little monologue didn't apply to, replied. 

He, someone just over a thirtieth of Rex' age, knew what his best friend was talking about full-well, as every mission, hunting down every Stray Devil that he encountered that crossed into Grigori territory, destroying monsters that became threats to the lives of those he cared about, and of those that the Grigori had their eyes on as potential members, he knew that sometime, somehow, he would end up dead. 

Whether dead in battle, from sickness, or just old age.

This was just the way it was.

There was a silence for a full minute, before a magic-circle appeared in Tobio's ear. Tobio placed a finger to that ear, and spoke.

"Hello? ...I see. ...Alright then. Take care of them. We're on our way."

"Who was that?" Rex asked.

"Lavinia." Tobio replied. "Apparently there are snipers all around the hotel, trained fully on the main entrance, to make sure we don't get out."

"Tch." Rex scoffed. "Alright. Let's head out."

----------

Several dozen yards away from where Tobio and Rex were, Lavinia Reni stood, in silence, her Magician's hood up, her blue eyes focused on the couple of dozen individuals, who were all wielding Imbel AGLC sniper rifles. 

All the rifles were trained on the main entrance to the hotel that had several helicopter-beams trained on it.

Lavinia calmly raised her hand, and a few metres away from her, a large... thing, appeared, out of the ground.

The thing was a three-metre tall doll, made entirely out of ice, in the form of a woman in a dress with four slender arms. Its face didn't have a nose or mouth. It had six eyes on the left side of its face, while the right side was studded with something resembling the thorns of a rose.

This was the Eternal Ice Princess, the form that Absolute Demise, Lavinia's Sacred Gear, took.

Just as silently, Lavinia pointed to all the snipers, who were all none the wiser that they were about to die.
