31 Taroks Angelic Knight!! The Return! (1/2)
In the messy, destroyed, bloody, monster-filled corpse graveyard, a humanoid figure engulfed in a blinding white light appeared in the midst of the ravaged battlefield. Majin and the rest of the champions watched as the figure gained its bearings and with a single swing of her sword, unleashed a huge sword wave in a circular radius. The previously war-torn landscape was instantly turned into nothing more than dirt. Brown dirt as far as the monster corpses went. The woman wore a white full-body armor with an elegant and regal sword that screamed righteousness and swears to cut down any evil doers.
Her shiny blonde hair that flashed from the back of her helmet. She turned her helmet towards the stronghold and pointed her sword in their direction.
”I was thinking they would summon a demon lord or a super S-rank monster for me to face but this is all they sent for me? Some knight?” Majin said displeased before hopping over the stronghold and slowly walking towards the mysterious knight.
*FLASH*
The knight disappeared and Majin's neck was nearly severed completely off as the woman reappeared behind her with her sword sizzling and soon melting, but it didn't affect the knight too badly. She just threw away the sword and materialized another similar-looking one. Majin's child-like face hardened in annoyance as her neck began latching itself onto her leaning barely attached head. It pulled itself together and Majin and the female knight stood back to back.
”You're no simple knight are you?” Majin questioned.
”I am nothing more than a simple knight. Now it's time to vanquish you Fiend.” She responded.
The knight disappeared once more but this time Majin wasn't underestimating her as much. She vanished as well and suddenly explosions and loud booms and bangs erupted across the area. None of the champions were able to keep up with their eyes as they watched the two clash against one another.
”Haha! Take this!” Majin shouted as she broke off the clash and cuffed her hands before charging up a nostalgic move. A bright blue orb appeared in her cuffed palms.
”Kamehameha!” And with her arms pushed out forward, fired a blue wave of magic that the knight couldn't possibly avoid in time.
But it seems she never intended on backing away in the first place. The mysterious knight lady braced herself forward with her sword parallel to her thigh and with a fierce upward slash, released a sword wave that split Majin's attack in half and headed straight for her. Majin added more magic into her attack but it seem like no matter how much more powerful she made her Kamehameha, the damned knight's sword wave was able to split it.
”Screw it!” Majin shouted angrily as she abandoned the skill and decided to rely on her overwhelming brute strength.
She rushed in close to the female knight and was shoulder bashed back in response.
Slightly stunned, Majin could only watch as the swordswoman grabbed her sword by the blade and knocked Majin into the sky with her hilt, as if she was a baseball player hitting a homerun for her team.
Steam began erupting from Majin's pores as her anger rose more and more.
”It kind of looks like she's losing…” Liya said slightly worried while holding onto Ren.
”She needs our help!” Elise shouted while also holding onto Ren.
”Don't bother. You weaklings will only get in her way.” Ken said.
”Agreed. We could barely follow their movements earlier. We'd just die instantly.” Buddy supported.
”Yeah… I think we should stay out of this….” Zidane said.
But they all knew if anyone had a chance of saving Majin it would be Ren. They all looked at him while he stared at Majin who was currently being beaten in the sky by the mysterious female knight.
'Having the She-Devil die would do me much good but, I doubt I would be able to last long with these guys and my meagre mana reserves against that demon. If she didn't clear these waves so impossibly fast, we could've just waited 3 days till the Destiny Battle was over. The announcer god told us we only needed to defend the…. Fuck!'
An angry expression appeared on Ren's face briefly before he quickly replaced it with his usual meek and unassuming appearance. But Buddy managed to catch this and began to ponder.
'Fuck! Shit! Fuck Fuck Damn! God Damn it! If that damned woman dies then we all die! How could I forget!?'
”I'll go help her.. I think it would be for the best if I was the only one who went though…” Ren said to the others.
'None of you are useful enough to even be used as bait…' Ren thought before watching Majin crashing into the ground and creating a large crater in the ground.
A large explosion of mana and a high-pitched voice shouted came from the hole before a green figure blasted from it towards the female knight.
”Have you learned nothing demon? Anger and brute force won't get you anywhere but an early grave.”
”I'll give you to an early grave!!” Majin yelled as she punched towards the mysteriously strong lady.
The knight blocked with her sword and accidently let loose a small gasp. Majin managed to push her back and was slowly pushing her back. She let out a smirk.
”Angry and brute force won't get me where now?” She asked smugly.
”Tch! Tarok give me strength to vanquish our enemy!” She shouted to the skies.
