Chapter 64 (1/2)
VS Divine Beast 2
“Hahaa! Let's go!”
Liscia who heads towards the Divine Beast enjoyingly. I also finally landed so I'll follow after her. Firstly, I transform 10 spheres into short swords and release them towards the Divine Beast.
Although the Divine Beast releases lightning and tries to shoot them down, those short swords are short swords that were transformed from The Sun Of ErosionEclipse Sol. The short swords absorb the lightning's magic power and pierce through the weakened lightning.
Although the Divine Beast opens its eyes wide from astonishment for an instant, it's also in an instant, that it brushes off the approaching short swords with its horn and foreleg without any danger. And then, it faced and closed in on me.
The Divine Beast that closes in until its right before my eyes and strikes at me with its right foreleg. I repel the lightning clad foreleg with the b.u.t.t of my scythe. ‘Gagin!', the scythe and the Divine Beast's foreleg collided, but I only withstood it for just a little before I was blown away.
I had kind of expected it so I wasn't hurt but……now then, how do I defeat it. Its power, speed, and protection, they are all high. Liscia who slashes at the Divine Beast that chases after me, who's regaining my balance, with the crus.h.i.+ng sword.
The Divine Beast that easily repels Liscia's sword with its horn and tries to bite at her. Be it that it's Liscia, she won't get away unharmed if she's bitten by those sharp fangs.
Furthermore, whenever the Divine Beast tries to bite at her, lightning is gus.h.i.+ng out, albeit a tiny amount, and hindering Liscia's movement. It's probably not something that it's spilling intentionally, but something that's leaking out naturally.
Even if to the Divine Beast, it's something trivial that it's spilling unconsciously, to us who are humans, it's nothing but a threat that our movements are hindered by.
I materialize even more spheres and collect them into one. Ordinary short swords weren't able to break through the lightning. In order to break through it, it has to be large, tough, and sharp.
And what was made was a giant spear that's dyed jet black. I aim that giant spear at the Divine Beast and release it. Although the Divine Beast was closing in to try to bite at Lisicia, it notices the approaching spear and immediately releases lightning.
Although a lightning barrier was made, it only put it with it for just a little before it's penetrated. The spear that carries on to close in on the Divine Beast. The Divine Beast stops chasing Liscia and glares at the spear. And then
“WAOooooN!!!”
Instantly when I thought the Divine Beast howled, light overflows from the Divinity Tree and rains down towards the Divine Beast. As the light casts on the Divine Beast, its horn s.h.i.+nes along with it. The light that gathered stretches and changes into a gigantic horn. Oh s.h.i.+t!
ZUZAaaaaaN!
A slash of the horn that was swung downwards easily buried the spear, split the ground and penetrated the forest. What destructive power. It's difficult for me to defend against that no matter how hard I try. Besides, above all else
“……The Divinity Tree that provides it with power is a nuisance”
Right now, the light has settled down and I don't know under what conditions does it provides it with power. However, I can't ignore it.
“Shoott!”
A large number of magic and arrows that were released under the Queen's command. Because the Divine Beast howls and puts up the lightning barrier once again, the attacks from our side won't go through at all……but
“Master. This defence is a nuisance”
“Aah, however……Liscia, when that Divine Beast is putting up the barrier, it didn't move even a single step, right?”
