////////////////////////////

Change of POV: Morgan Le Fay

[Author Note: One chapter again in Morgan's POV for a Change.]

I was sitting in my home, in my living room alone.

I eat chips from the plate, drank coke from the glass and enjoyed my 'freedom' while watching Anime and waiting for Isaiah to come here.

This past week was... Eventful, was the right word, I assumed.

My level has skyrocketed.

I and my team cleared 2 C-Rank Dungeons and 2 B-Rank Dungeons in the last week. 

I took a small sip from the coke.

"Ahh~ This is a life. Nothing better than cold drink after a dungeon." I couldn't help but voice it out loud, I was right. I wasn't wrong at all.

Today, just one hear earlier I and my time cleared 2nd B-Rank Dungeon this week and 3rd B-Rank Dungeon over-all in my life, 

All thanks to Mizu-Sans poweful leadership, otherwise if I was the one leading the team, I humbly don't thin we could have survived.

"Lucky~" I tossed another chilly chips into my mouth as I chewed it.

Right now, I'm waiting for Isaiah, he would arrive any moment by now.

I called him because we, as Dominion of Mankind finally developed our own 'Light-Container' from Valper Galilei's old files, thought it should be mentioned that it took them 2-3 months of research to accomplish this feat.

Even if Valper was a trash Human, his genius even with his deeds won't be blemished, he might have been on level of Azazel or Ajuka, who would have known.

But..

"This thing would surely prove it;s usefulness in Isaiah's hands." I said out loud as I twirled it, the 'Light-Container' is a small yet blue 'crystal-like' badge that can be worn as 'watch'. 

It's a prototype right now, a working one indeed. Though, my researchers are working on 'letting people absorb' the 'Light-Container' like Church did by letting people like Irina Shidou to absorb so she can wield a Holy-Sword in canon, if I remember right.

I snorted slightly in amusement as I placed the Light-Container on the table, awaiting it's master.

And my eyes shifted to a sword on the table too, I couldn't help but grab it in my hands.

Swing it once or twice and then trace my fingers at it's blade.

This sword is a Holy-Sword, my Hunters took it after killing a Fallen Exorcist who run-away from Church, thus stealing it essentially.

It's a weak or rather just 'average Holy-Sword', nothing special, it's not even on par with Excalibur fragments let alone on Durandal or Caliburn.

I swung it once more. The blade itself is just as tall as me, 140cm, with beautiful yet glorious golden scabbard, golden handle and white blade.

I could feel it from my 'S-Rank Holy Attribute', this sword loves me.

I swung it once more, I let a satisfied smirk fall on my lips before I un-sheathed the sword then gazed at it's beauty before sheathing it slwoly.

I placed the blade back on the table.

This blade will act as a test, If Isaiah is able to wield it, then it's a success, what else he needs to do is absorb it.

And how shall he absorb it? The same way Issei absorbed The Dragon-Sword, pure imagination.

If it succeed, then Isaiah has potential to discover same balance breaker like he did in canon.

Though, since I believe current Isaiah is as strong as the one from first season, he may lack experience or skills, if Low-Class Kiba was able to achieve Balance Breaker, then what stops Isaiah right now?

It simple.

I tossed another chips into my mouth, as I began thinking about the 'victims' of the research project.

Under my orders, only 'criminals' were used for the testing, I did not allow any 'innocent' person to be involved in it.

Only worst people, from murderers, rapist and similar cases.

Only the worst of the worst.

But no one died.

Well..

Except few.

But NO ONE!

~Cough! Cough!

"Anyway.." 

The concept of the research was to take 'Holy Element' from Humans.

Holy Element is a special type of energy only found in Humans or Half-Humans before 'they underwent some type of race-change'.

Every single Human, no matter how weak or strong has that energy, some have bigger amount, allowing them to wield Holy-Swords, and some have little, allowing them to not wield those Holy-Swords.

The bigger amount of Holy Element a Human body has, the stronger Holy Sword they would be able to wield.

For example, I can wield ANY, no matter how strong that sword or weapon is, I can wield it.

Though, there might be restrictions to weapons that have 'personality' and only allow chosen ones to wield them.

And, this project worked by taking that same 'Holy Element' energy from Human bodies and storing them into an 'object' or in this case a crystal, so a person without much Holy Element would be able to wield a Holy Sword.

It was a fine point, one much needed to be implemented, but the real reason for this experiment is that Isaiah reaches his Balance Breaker, sooner than later.

My hands moved towards the glass with coke, before I grasped it and movedd it towards my lips to drink.

I enjoyed it for a moment before I placed it back on the table.

I slowly hummed before I opened the [Stats], I truly want to check my progress after clearing two C-Rank Dungeons and two B-Rank Dungeons.

And just then.

~Ring!

~Ring!

~Ring!

Someone is ringing on the doors.

"It must be Isaiah." I muttered to myself before I stood up from my position and walked towards the doors. 

And I could sense isaiah's Magical Presence from other side, so I opened it.

I saw him, wearing a black pants with black sweater. His short hair flying in the wind and a smile placed on his lips as he nodded at me.

"Morgan." He nodded towards me.

I smiled before side-stepping, allowing him to enter inside.

Which he did.

I slowly shut off the door before turning around to look at him before motioning him to go sit in the living room.

'By now, I guess he is my friend.' I though to myself before we walked towards the couch and sat down.

"So, why did you call for me?" He questioned, as he tilted his head slightly.

I looked towards the table before leaning towards it, and picking up the small crystal-like bracelet,.

"This is Light Container, a device that Valper Galilei wanted to create." I spoke to him softly, as I motioned him to take the light Container from my head. " Don't worry, no one died for this experiment and only criminals were included." I showed him Light Container.

But he is hesitant towards taking it.

Instead, his expression shifted from curiosity towards a hard-earned scowl.

After he was saved years ago, he was shown 'proof' from the Hunters, about what they were eventually going to be experimented for.

And while no one of them 'died' but some children went 'missing'. His hate towards Holy Swords is not apparent like in canon, rather he had grown a strong dislike towards Holy Swords, like he would in his opinion rather just use anything else.

But it was not like he was able to use them to begin with.

"So...That crystal was the goal of that thing.' It wasn't a question, rather statement. As his hand slowly took the bracelet from my hand.

I nodded, his hate towards Valper Galilei was a just one, and true one.

'Indeed, and the amount of 'Holy Element' inside that bracelet should be more than enough to allow you to wield this.." I paused as my index finger pointed towards the Holy Sword lying on the table. " Holy Sword, I suppose that I don't have to explain you that this is indeed a much needed experiment."

Isaiah's eye twitched as he gazed upon the Holy Sword for a moment, then his scowl receded. Even though he dislikes Holy Swords and hates Valper Galilei, it was not absolute level of hate, so he can swallow his own preferences for the moment.

His hand slowly moved towards the Light Container as he took it in his own hand.

He turned it around, twisted it and pulled it.

Checking it over, a child's curiosity.

Apparently, after a few more seconds of it, he was satisfied before he placed the bracelet on his left hand.

"It fits somehow, comfortable.." He replied as he stood up from his seat.

I nodded.

He moved towards the table, then glanced one reproachful look towards the weapon, the Holy Sword.

As if he was uncertain,

I watched like a hawk, I can't move my gaze from this moment, this historic moment..

I need to see it for my own eyes.

I though so.

His hand slowly moved towards the Holy Sword clad in the scabbard.

He took the handle of the sword and raised it above his head to inspect the sword in question.

And it suddenly glowed with bright yellow gold. From the handle and it's scabbard.

I smiled, this was a good sign.

If a normal person, who doesn't have enough Holy Element were to wield a Holy Sword, the Holy Sword in question would not glow and in their hands it would not be much different than a normal scrap of metal, a sturdy scrap of metal but still a scrap of metal.

But, if a new wielder, someone who did not touch that particular holy sword before were to touch it, the sword would glow brightly. Signalling that it 'bonded' with the one who touched it.

And since it 'glowed' when Isaiah touched it, it means that Light Container worked without a problem.

Isaiah looked at the sword in his hand, as he glanced at it from handle to the end of the scabbard.

His left hand moved towards the scabbard as he pulled it out.

And was able to see the bright glow of the sword slowly receding.

"That Holy Sword is a basic one so It doesn't come with additional ability like great Holy Sword for example Excalibur Fragments come with, but instead it comes with classic amount of Holy Light embedded into it for slaying Devils." I added as my hands moved toward the chips as I threw one into my mouth.
