Chapter 65 (1/2)

VS Divine Beast (3)

“Gururuuu”

Its height is about 2 metres. It's not the form like that of a wolf it was until just now, it's a Divine Beast that stands on two legs like us. Although its appearance is that of a human, the power that overflows from within is in a different league.

“uu! Don't s.p.a.ce out, Master!”

The Divine Beast that instantly appeared before my eyes simultaneously with Liscia's voice. Although the spears that I've made to be semi-automatic stack up and block the electric shock-clad claws that were being brandished, they were penetrated extremely easily.

“Kuu!”

I spin my scythe to repel the approaching claws, but my body once again numbs and my movement dulls. At that opening, the Divine Beast roundhouse kicked me with its left leg. I clad my right arm with spheres, created a gauntlet and blocked, but there were unpleasant cracking sounds and I felt an instantaneous pain.

I was blown away when the Divine Beast swings through with its left leg regardless of it. I heal my broken arm even as I'm bouncing several times off the ground. I simultaneously created short swords and released them at the Divine Beast.

Without trying to avoid the approaching short swords, the Divine Beast clads its hand in lightning and repels the short swords. From its back

“Haah!”

Liscia swings the crus.h.i.+ng sword down towards the Divine Beast. The Divine Beast brought its hands above its head and crossed it without turning around and blocked Liscia's sword.

Although the impact escapes to the ground and splits it, not only did the Divine Beast's stance not crumble, it repels Liscia's sword and sends her flying with a punch while spinning. Liscia used her sword as a s.h.i.+eld and blocked, but she also bounced several times off the ground like me.

The Divine Beast heads straight towards me without paying any attention to Liscia whom it blew away. Even though it's indiscriminate when it's large, it started targetting me after it turned into this current form huh, this fellow.

I receive the Divine Beast that cuts at me with its sharp claws with the scythe. My body numbs and my movement dulls whenever I'm struck, but, it's still a speed that I'm able to react to.

I avert the Divine Beast's attacks while backing down. I swing the b.u.t.t of the scythe upwards to repel the right claw, that thrusts at me, spin, and swing the blade sideways to cut at it.

The Divine Beast lightly jumped and avoided the blade of the scythe, and carried on to throw kicks at me in the air. I receive it with the hilt of the scythe right away, but I was rapidly forced backwards. The Divine Beast that follows up on its attacks on me even further.

It's at a speed that it reacts instantly even when I release short swords at it. Kuu, isn't it quicker than when it's large?

However, this doesn't seem to be the time to be begrudging. As I block the Divine Beast's attacks, I take distance from the Divine Beast.

And then I erase the scythe and sword swords that I'd materialized around myself and gather magic power. Naturally, the Divine Beast, that wouldn't have let it slide, approaches me but

“Haaaah!”

Liscia cuts at the Divine Beast for me from the side. Alright, it'll take a little bit of time to do this after all. Thanks.

I gather all of the magic power that I have on the palm of both hands in the meantime. Although it's still incomplete, it's a weapon I came up with just for the sake of killing the G.o.ddess.
