Chapter 93 - Ash and Kana Vs Corrupted Thanatos (1/2)
_________________________________________________
[Just before]
”Hey Qudus! Listen! Can you search for this man that I'll describe?” [Kanji]
”Huh?” [Qudus]
”Just do it! Boss there will need every help that he could get! So either you do it with your own free will or after learning some pain!” [Kanji]
”You didn't leave me with other choices!” [Qudus]
Complaint as he might, Qudus started to redirect his ability to search for the man. The key word given are male witch and orphanage. The two traverse the underground and after defeating a number of monsters (mainly thanks to Kanji)
”Hey you! Are you the male witch?” [Kanji]
”How did you know?” [Kana]
”Just answer me! The Behemoth Slayer will really appreciate your help right now!” [Kanji]
”I, I am! What happen!” [Kana]
”There's no mistaken it! Now we should let him out, but how?” [Qudus]
”Leave it to me!” [Kanji]
Kanji chant some long spell to imbued his sword with earth magic, and once it done he simply cut the lock, and give it a nice strong kick to loosen it. He then went and grab a high level healing potion and give it to the weaken male witch, and...
”Thank you for saving me” [Kana]
”Welcome, but there's no time to waste! Can you move?” [Kanji]
”I can, let us make haste” [Kana]
”Qudus!” [Kanji]
”Fine, Fine!” [Qudus]

It's two vs two, me (someone with Goddess Achalasia blessings) and Kana (a male witch that will be the wild card fighting against the corrupted Thanatos) Vs Agnes (someone with more than just the fallen god blessing) and Corrupted Thanatos (S rank monster which is ofte n associated with the God of Death itself). I do hope Kanji and Qudus will call for backup as fast as possible since there are a number of peoples around us, which honestly speaking, will cause me trouble. I'm sure Agnes will not have even the slightest of hesitation to turn all of them into a monster, and thus, I need to protect them, not only for their sake, but for my own sake as well.
The Corrupted Thanatos begin it attack by throwing it scythe towards the two of us. It weapon is approximately 1.5 larger than mine, with what I presume to be made out of the same material as mine, befitting to that closest to God of Death itself. But, since Kana manage to weaken it down, the power behind the throw reduce, and instead of parrying it, I simply catch it and make it mine. Now I wielded two of it.
Just like how I will usually call back my scythe after throwing it, the Corrupted Thanatos did the same, and I can feel the pull. Well
”Here! Since you want it so much!” [Ash]
I simply throw it with wind magic to accelerate it further, and with a strong light magic to top it all, and to make it overkill, I throw my scythe as well. It tries to catch it, and it successfully done so, but not without any damage. I can say that the right arm of it is currently being damage by the light magic.
”Kana! Don't let it heal itself” [Ash]
”On it!” [Kana]
”Like I let you!” [Agnes]
”And who say I will allow you to do whatever you want!” [Ash]
Since the Corrupted Thanatos are currently recovering (but not as quickly as it supposed to be, thanks to Kana efforts), I dash through it and went straight ahead to punch that female priestess. She did manage to block my punch with her two staffs but
”Naive!” [Ash]
Here! Get a taste of my thunder magic!
”AAAHHH!” [Agnes]
”And take thi...” [Ash]
I distance myself as the Corrupted Thanatos begin to slice it way to protect Agnes. But, that doesn't mean I stop using the thunder magic. I simply channel my mana and keep on using it. But
”Such strong magic. And that magic circle!” [Kana]
Right now, a strong light and dark magic encircle Agnes, forming a strong barrier that protect her. Smart move from her side
”Can you weaken it?” [Ash]
”I'll try, but don't expect too much. Plus, the longer this battle drag on, the more disadvantageous our situation will be” [Kana]
”Your influence will weaken?” [Ash]
He simply nodded. Guess our top priority now is to defeat the Corrupted Thanatos, or remove the corrupted part. My wild guess back at Estel about using a strong light magic did hit the mark, as I can see that the part being damage isn't healing as it supposed to. True, Kana's witch power did come into play, but I'm sure the light magic itself is one of the main factors, or...
(Could it also be because of my scythe being a gift from the God of Death itself?) [Ash]
Maybe that can be a factor as well. Whatever, I did know the combination of my scythe + strong light magic and the witch influence will be the key factors in taking down that monster
”Kana, give everything that you got in this one shot! I'll slice that monster with my scythe and light magic. Focus solely on dropping it defense, no need to reduce it attack power or anything other than defense!” [Ash]
”Got it! Be careful!” [Kana]
”Yeah!” [Ash]
