……He… Blocked it……?

Wind Blades aren’t that strong.

Thus, hitting Axel’s sword they powerlessly disappear.

There is nothing strange about that. But what is actually surprising……

How did he manage to block it……?

No, it’s probably just a coincidence.

The attack probably just happened to hit him as he brandished his sword.

……Yes, that’s right. The attack cannot be seen. Therefore, there is no way it can be blocked.

He just got lucky.

Knowing that, dealing with him is not that hard.

「――【Invisible Wind Blades』……!」

I just have to shoot more blades, so there won’t be room for such luck.

And then, add a little extra—

【Invisible Wind Hammer』

I also add blunt attacks.

Wind hammers.

One hit from it is enough to squash a human completely.

They also cannot be seen.

……And they are much stronger than wind blades……!

Breaking his weapon might not be possible, but they might knock it out of his hands.

I opened new possibilities for fatal wounds.

If he gets crushed or slashed to death, fine.

If one of the attacks disarms him and in the meantime air blades shred him to bits, it’s also fine.

If he panics at invisible attacks and gets minced by tornadoes, then it’s good as well.

Anyway, as long as something hits him.

Thinking so, I keep shooting projectile after projectile.

「Do not presume your luck will save you this time……!!」

With so many attacks, something is bound to hit him.

A few moments later he should be a bloody pulp.

With those thoughts, I kept shooting. Butー

「I see. Those are some interesting attacks you have there..」

But the sight before me defied my expectations.

「Wh-at……?」

Axel rushed towards me, while nimbly dodging all of the attacks and tornadoes without even bothering to block them.

……I-Impossible……!

The attacks cannot be seen.

He might be able to confirm some of them by clouds of dust, but it’s impossible to register all of them. And yetー

「How can you dodge it?!」

「Unfortunately for you, I’m used to dealing with headwinds and storms. While you cannot see the wind…… I have enough experience to be able to tell where it is going. ……Like this.」

He closed the gap.

And then swung his sword.

At this rate, he is going to cut me down.

「Kuh…… 【Wind Wall】……!」

Promptly conjuring a wall of wind in front of me I use it to block the incoming sword. Butー

「Too late……!」

It didn’t stop the sword.

「Go……ugh……!」

Thanks to the wind wall I managed to avoid being cut in two, but the blunt force knocked me away. However…

It’s not over yet!

I’m not defeated yet. Yes.

「My winds still remain! 【Tornado of Purple Winds】!」

While still flying after being knocked away, Ammit swung his right arm.

*ーーWhooosh!*

The next moment, several smaller tornadoes appeared between him and Axel.

……Now I just have to hide inside one of themーー
