Chapter 73: Decision in Stella
“W-What?!”
The soman that had fallen back had now returned, her body clad in radiance
The attack that Io used as a feint was evaded in a speed that was clearly at a completely different level from before and, just like that, her sword travels to his flank
Tightening his abdominal muscles, the attack that was repelled until now had brilliantly cut the body of the giant and blood flowed
“It can cut!”
“Naval, what kind of o to the rear and have it casted on me as well!” (Hibiki)
“Hahaha, Hibiki that is impossible This needs a special catalyst after all! Just obediently provide me support!” (Naval)
Naval stops Hibiki as already trying to head to the rear
“Wu wu, if you had such a tru and look beautiful too~” (Hibiki)
“We are pushi+ng hard!”
The speed of Naval was originally higher than hiy is to freely ainst the hyuht is different and excelled his speed, it was impossible to evade the properly to dae, the sche a distance not too far yet not too close, she coils about the de him
There was no chance for Hibiki to intervene, Naval was dishi+ng as much attacks as she wanted With her speed, there was no chance to follow her and the wounds continued
Coeneration, the speed in which he received wounds was faster But at this rate, it will never reach a fatal wound The wound she did at the beginning in his flank has already healed If there is so of his strength by lost of blood As expected, things like neck, chest and stomach; he didn’t permit her to aim at them
Hibiki’s two handed attacks leave shallow cuts She is changing into a style where hisas her objective, she is ain
But in that turn of events there is one knight that had practically stopped parrying attacks or stopping them He looked at the battle with a dazed expression
“… That is… Rose Sign Are you kidding me? Why does she have such a…” (Bredda)
It see, he turned to the rear where Wudi is
Wudi, who knew the position of prince that Bredda possessed, could only turn his eyes away
No one in the party except Wudi knows, about Bredda holding the position of prince Because of that, there were a lot of chances where he obtained information other people would be unable to touch In that information, there was also the reason as to why Naval was able to change this situation into an advantageous one
A fragn
Its size is on the level of a coin, but in reality it is one of thepower
It’s a one-time use item and, when used, the pattern of a crimson rose will appear at the back of your neck This is also one of the reasons for its name
Its effect is sis out power When it is born, it will slowly consureedily devour that power you will never be able to recover And so, it will provide the user with strength surpassing one’s limits
The effective ti tie for a power that the user will never be able to obtain in his entire life, your death is set in stone
“Calling such a thing… a plan? Naval, you are…” (Bredda)
A pure soman like her can’t activate it Bredda understands that His thoughts reach at the conclusion that it must be Wudi or Chiya that cooperated with her
(It isso ths to protect Hibiki-dono and I?!) (Bredda)
It is certainly not a situation where they could survive with the sacrifice of no one
However, to take all the responsibility by herself and forcing her own death, it is soht that faked his social position and joined the party, still didn’t have the way of thinking a royalty should possess Sometimes it is necessary to sacrifice someone This reality is one that a politician can’t avoid
And actually, the effectiveness of Rose Sign is i a difficult ti the defensive He is so was still able to win
“Ah, Naval! You must not, that attack is…!” (Hibiki)
There is no way to know if Hibiki’s warning reached her Naval, who had juot the deeneral’s arm And then, that sword continues unto its insides… and stops
“I got you!” (Io)
Io wedged the sword and tightened his muscles His opposite arm fires a powerful uppercut at Naval
“Not yet!!” (Naval)
In ht hand on top of the left that is at the back of the sword’s handle and places force as if pushi+ng her whole body Naval, kicking the body of Io, uses that momentum to push the sword that had stopped in theher froes to put her feet on top of it and use that strength to propel her to the direction of the attack
Io didn’t let out a single screa his arm cut off and didn’t stop his fist either Nevertheless, one could clearly see that he eating and looking at his own ar, he finally distorted his expression
A blood spray that had never occurred was happening now
“How scary, white wo and yet still greedily co its power Are you a eneral to call rasped the way to cut off your arone, it will be easier tofearlessly, she brushes off the blood sticking onto her sword Her sas already clad in a faint radiance and the white aura that she was releasing fro aura flows to all sides as if dancing and then disappears
“So there’s a hyuht? Honestly, I am deeply surprised” (Io)
“Well, I am surprised as well At your power that I can’t overwhelths that is As expected froenius huh” (Naval)
“… I was originally a noriant you know? What you cut off is not one of inal arms” (Io)
Io responds to Naval’s praise
“At that time ere attacked by the spider, I couldn’t save ed to repel it with my wound-filled body, I returned with his arms and transplanted it on me It took a lot of tih” (Io)
“Well, that was impolite of me then I am sorry but I will have to finish this There is also a fox woenerals you are the weakest one We can’t take our ti fro
Maybe she is self-aware of this or ins her offensive
“I a a weird labeling there Why would a weak general coest one of the deeneral that can beat ainst Naval’s fierce attack, Io liuard and slowly es tohere and there, Io see
“That is good news then! If westep forward!” (Naval)
She didn’t even flinch at the words “strongest” Naval goes full force at the de the co the sword and little by little, using full powered attacks, she
In the middle of that, Naval does one step back and turns over her body As if he had been waiting for this ood! Naval hasn’t noticed?!) (Bredda)
Bredda, who has been watching that fight with co able to evade the next attack that is coeneral
It may be because Bredda receives attacks a lot, he is skilled at reading his ene that Naval would take her distance because she didn’t like how the situation was flowing
“… A kick?!”
That’s right Io hadn’t used a kick at all until now
The distance it has is wider coe anye sphere
In the space between theht was safe, a fast kick that doesn’t fit the appearance of this giant was released Avoiding it was impossible
“You shouldn’t be careless!” (Io)
“Seriously!” (Bredda)
From the side of the released kick, a shadow appears
Bredda, who had noticed Io’s prediction, erous to defend, but attacking the leg fro he can so his kick’s direction shi+fted by an unexpected obstruction, of course, the balance of his body crumbles Naval’s eyes shi+ne with the desire to attack
“I did it!” (Bredda)
Replacing the kick of Io, coht poere beautiful like a dance
Io, who had read the ai his body and uses the two reet in the way! At this ht?!” (Hibiki)
Hibiki forcefully cuts one of the arms of his and strikes his whole body If it is at least cutting off one of the ar his neck, it is possible
“Hibiki, thank you!” (Naval)
Slipping through the arm that was left, Naval’s sword reaches Io’s neck
“Nuu wu! Gu!!!”
She wasn’t able to h his arm and release a punch
But the sword of her, certainly got through his neck The white radiance that was covering the sas now shi+ning faintly and only protecting Naval’s body
The white so power to try and cut off his neck by placing force on the opposite side
It doesn’t budge
The sword that had gone through his neck didn’t move a centimeter
“Praiseworthy To think you would be able to do this ht of you guys” (Io)
“… You bastard That body is…” (Naval)
The purple skin of Io began to dye in pitch black
“To think in this fight I would find an opponent I have to use iant sent chills down Naval’s spine The sword that had clearly reached to his throat by pressing all of the strength of both of her arms, was brushed to the side The sword… broke
Without ed looks with Hibiki and Bredda and took her distance froiant, with the sword’s edge still in his neck, stays standing
“… This is a joke right? Are you telling e 2?” (Hibiki)
Hibiki’s words are blurred Until now it has been already been a plenty strong opponent that they could hardly er There is no situationthan this
