One question I've had ever since V11 was, how can you absorb a percent of the power of an infinite being and cause it to become finite? I've never been able to figure it out beyond the idea of "Ishibumi-sensei uses a type of math that we don't"

Anyone have any speculation on what other powers Rizevim will have besides Sacred Gear Canceller? He couldn't be a Super Devil for only that reason. Sirzechs' true form is the personification of the Power of Destruction, while Ajuka's true form has yet to be revealed, but it's shown that he's a master technique-type. I'm curious to see in future novels what power Rizevim truly possesses.

Well, think of it like this. Ophis is an interval taken from infinity, so while Ophis was born of infinity, she herself is finite, just a very big interval.

As for Rivezim... he better have more to him then Sacred Gear Canceler, I mean from the looks of it Sirzechs' team was made specifically to counter Rivezim. If all he had was SGC then it doesn't make much sense for someone as strong as Sirzechs' to go out of his way to make such a team if it was someone he could deal with 1 on 1.

Think mathematically. There are an infinite number of real numbers between '1' and '2'. But it's still just one integer.

One can represent infinity and metaphorically be infinite without having infinite power.

Rizevim has lilith as bodyguard and crom cruch and that's way more enough.And speaking of lilith and ise,

Spoiler:

he went out with some of the girls and found her by some shop looking at a red dragon doll,he bought it for her,she says she is hungry so he treats her to a meal,she eats everything while asia wipes her mouth.Lilith says ise smells like great red.

Thanks for the spoilers, that's pretty interesting.

The translation isn't finished yet. Once it's finished and uploaded to Baka Tsuki, wait a week or so and then check this thread: http://www.baka-tsuki.org/forums/vie...hp?f=61&t=4814

EDIT: Life 1 is completed on n0m@n's blog! Thanks n0m@n!

Now that was a strange first meeting, short but a lot happening at once.

[whitecloud]

Woaaa....that is some enemy there...and the holy grail is really just as expected, since it can bring back the dead dragon,i guess it can bring back heroes then...? Hahaha, just a thought, then it will trully become war of the grail...

[n0m@n]

One spoiler.

Spoiler for ed:

Crom Cruach was never dead and he was never resurrected by the holy grail. So everyone goes wtf lol. And he's strong as a heavenly dragon now apparently.

[Tbolt]

As usual n0m@n you are the man. Thanks for keeping us on the edge of our seats.

Does this mean he was training somewhere while listening to energizing music?

something like this.

Well, Rizevim's introduction has been done pretty well, I have to say.

Lilith's introduction is also pretty interesting.

I also liked how the author explained how the Holy Grail works, and what kind of burden it causes for it's host - Valerie.

Regarding the spoilers that @nacer666 provided, I ...

Spoiler for untranslated part:

... find, it interesting that someone actually mentioned that Ise has the same smell as Great Red.

It's not surprising, considering who has made Ise's current body, but I like the fact that someone has noticed that relation between Great Red and Ise.

[Gary29]

Spoiler:

If anyone were to notice the relation between Great Red and Ise, it would most certainly be the other half of Ophis. It was nonetheless quite interesting that Lilith pointed that out.

That was an odd first meeting between the Gremory group and the Leader of the Khaos Brigade, but due to Rizevim's tone of voice and relations to Azazel it's no wonder. A lot happened in a short time; explanation of the Holy Grail, Rizevim's introduction and some background to him, and Lilith's introduction too.

So next they're going to visit Gasper's father? Events will probably take a turn for the worst after that, which is where the real fighting begins.

Spoiler:

I don't think lilith remembers great red,she just know it by instinct.Currently,her motive is just tn guard rizevim.

Spoiler for untranslated part response:

Then, I guess it's up to Ise, to make Lilith realize that there are a few other things that she could do, apart from guarding someone like rizevim.

It might take some more work compared with what Ise did to make the original Ophis become attracted to him, and it probably won't happen, until the final fight against Rizevim is going to take place... but, I think that there is a chance that something like that is going to occur ... and it's also probably going to put some wrench in Rizevim's plans.

[Tbolt]

Hmmmm "you smell like Great Red" I think I see a new business opportunity for the Gremory group, a new line of men's cologne. When you want to overpower your date use the cologne the oppai dragon uses, Great Red for men.

[Phoenix221186]

somthing like ...

the image of isse and all the girls .. and then the logo will say something like ...
When you want a Harem .. Great Red for men ...

[DragoMuseveni]

If it will be a fight between DXD and 666 i kinda believe that great red will fusion with issei and with the combined power of sekiryuutei and sekiryuushintei they`ll gonna beat 666. Is just a presumption . Anyway It will be ironic if 666 was Miltan and Tiamat was actually Aika Kyriuu . Dxd sure is impredictable so isn`t gonna be a big suprise if those two where actually the most powerfull ones.

[Gary29]

All joking aside, I don't think Mil-tan is 666. Ishibumi would scar Ise and co. for life if that was true.

@Tbolt Now that's something I'd like to see implemented. It would be quite funny and an awesome addition to the Oppai Dragon line of products.

[Phoenix221186]

maybe he was a beautifull girl before being sealed away ? xD

[Tbolt]

I too think that there is more to Aika Kyriuu than meets the eye, from her glasses to how much attention she gives Ise. But if she is Tiamat is she powerful enough to hide her true self from all the other Devils like Ophis can, and if it is Tiamat and she puts a flag up for Ise the girls better watch out.
