Arifureta Chapter 138 (1/2)
“Well, first of all… Ae forward!”
“Eh?”
While Hajime and the Frost Turtle let out enor intent, Kouki had thought they would start fighting Instead, he was called forward, and thus gave Hajime a startled response
“No ‘eh’, charge forward and quickly crush that turtle”
“W-why me?” Kouki asked instinctively
Haji to shoot down the surrounding monsters one shot at a time
“Ah, you guys came here to do what? It’s not likely to count if we just do it all for you…”
“… A that’s right!”
“Auy The other three of you (Suzu, Ryuutaro, shi+zuku), support him while the rest of us keep the small fries off of you Do it quickly If you wuss out, I’ll finish the job” Hajime smiled provocatively
Kouki gave a strong nod, fla in his eyes
“Leave it to me I’ll show you I can absolutely knock it down shi+zuku… Suzu, Ryuutaro, Let’s go!”
“Oo, Let’s go!”
“I’ll cover you Take care of the icicles behind me There may be some trick to them”
“Leave the defense to me I’ll show you I can protect everyone!”
After everyone answered energetically, a silver flash struck thethem in an instant
“Go! Don’t do anything rash!+”
Thanks to Kaori’s silver boration, an easy route had been opened up between Kouki’s party and the Frost Turtle They ran forhile thanking her
While its red eyes shone, the gap they forain
“What are you doing? Your opponent is ram!”
As the turtle was focused on Hajime, Kouki’s party ran towards the Frost Turtle while Kouki shouted out his favored technique
A killer attack of light fleard, directly striking the eerily shi+ning eyes of the Frost Turtle and tearing the that wound
“KuWaAAn!”
With part of its head crushed, and only one eye re intent at Kouki’s party This was all going according to Kouki’s plan
And with itsopen, a breath of ice and snoas expelled out!
Spiraling like a tornado filled with ice chips, any ere caught in it would freeze immediately Even if you could endure the cold, the ice would cut you to ribbons
However, they had a ical barriers they could rely on
“Faster than the wind, quicker than the water, Over Saint Scatter!”
By reinforcing the , Suzu created a Barrier that dispersed energy The bo a “gou!” sound And even though it cay was dispersed and could not overcome the barrier
“It will keep regening indefinitely as long as it contains the demon stone Don’t waste time It is necessary to end this in one blow”
“My Heaven’s Might takes thirty seconds to reach maximum power”
“Then, in the ”
While Suzu prevented the attack with her barrier, shi+zuku explained while giving Kouki a look Considerable thermal poould be required to destroy the deure of the Frost Turtle Kouki would be the most suitable
Kouki understood this, given the time it’d take to execute his attack Before, it took over a minute or more to reach maximum power The time had been shortened considerably and amplified by several times, thanks to the revision of the Holy Sword
“Everyone, the attack is weakening!”
“Good When the attack stops, spread out… Suzu, stay with me”
“Understood! You can count on me!”
At almost the same moment as Suzu’s words, the attack came to an end The ice and snow fell down and shi+zuku and the rest spread out as Kouki ordered
shi+zuku dashed out low to the ground, slipping under the Frost Turtle
“The first attack, Flashi+ng Blossom!”
With a sharp aura drawing black tracks in the air, her target was the Frost Turtle’s legs To the large transparent foot, a gap of space forhly and dropped to the floor
“Flashi+ng Blosso Blossom!”
Without a pause, shi+zuku kept advancing while sliding around, severing the second foot on one side It slipped out, leaving the remainder in the rear side
“KuruaaA!?”
Cheers! Feeling pleased, the sword returned to its scabbard The two feet slipped down diagonally and with a scream the Frost Turtle went down
“Zzuzuuzun!”
The Frost Turtle that had lost its balancethirst for blood was shot behind the Frost Turtle stretching across its long neck
“Tsu!?”
With her skin raising like goose flesh, shi+zuku’s intuition convinced her to dash froe nuround where she had been
Like frozen flowers bloo fro shi+zuku
“Aerodynamic!”
While being chased by quickly for icicles, shi+zuku barelyicicles sed her path
However, at that ti attacked her from three different directions, respectively
“… flash…”
While atte Blossom, she didn’t seem to be able to make it in time There was no way she could avoid the terrible claws froles
At that e—
Three red flashes passed by her surroundings
With unflinching aih the center of the chest of each of the frost eagles, causing the pieces
In recognition of the attack, shi+zuku’s eyes flickered to the origin… where Hajime was enclosed by a considerable a a co Gun) However, what caught her eye was the muzzle of Donner
“Fro”
Even with a distance of twenty meters or more, and with the power of the bullets and the penetration for the bullets having increased by three times, the shock wave from the explosive bullets couldn’t reach her with so many demons between them
So, how did the precision fire reach shi+zuku?
The ansas easy: You only had to shot through them
That is to say that Hajiles and otherwith precision like firing through the eye of a needle Without visually checking, he executed a perfectly cheat-like ability that could be called a miracle
While forgetting the battle surrounding her, shi+zuku was charmed by the power that Hajime wielded It wasn’t until her childhood friend shouted that her consciousness came back into focus
“Don’t get carried away! Heavy Crash!+”
While atte to wake up shi+zuku, who used aerodynah the air and flen fro a fist wrapped in a gauntlet artifact with the strength of a meteorite
With a roaring sound, the Frost Turtle’s head crushed with a shock wave Thanks to the gravityshi+zuku was interrupted Ryuutaro gave a pre the results of his attack
Immediately after the head was crushed, a new head appeared from the root
“Geh!? shi+—“
To the dark red eyes glinting from inside the shell, Ryuutaro let out an expletive instinctively The next moment, it let out a breath attack of ice and snow, and Ryuutaro atte both of his arms at once
However, a hexagonal barrier i the attack Bikibiki sounds denoted the cracks for thanks to the powerful attack A second later, the saain
“Suzu’s Heavenly Barrier?”
While Ryuutaro exclaiical barrierahead near Kouki
Suzu returned a smile at Ryuutaro’s look
Ryuutaro’s guess was half right
“Expulsion space”
Expulsion space was a defense ic of two or more barriers Heavenly barrier was joined with expulsion Originally, Suzu didn’t have the ability to coic, however, thanks to her iron-ribbed fan artifact, the function that allowedwas obtained
To Ryuutaro, as stuck in the barrier under attack from the breath attack, Suzu cast Expulsion space in a panic Particularly after seeing a frost eagle atte to assault him from behind However, it was unnecessary Ion appeared and consumed it
“UoOO!? That surprised me!”
While shooting sparks, the greatexpression while uttering such a complaint
Yue, while directing the seven-headed serpent with slender fingers which danced like batons, turned a quick glance at Ryuutaro, causing his jaws to drop
With an expression of iesture that scolded him which see, and should instead concentrate on his target Even the thick-headed Ryuutaro see to express
“Really, every last one of Nagued to make them all fall in love with him”
Ryuutaro had a wry sine how the Hajied to do it While executing Vajra, he began to charge,him
As a ht, and was disappointed in love ienerated between her and Hajime He couldn’t even tell his best friend Kouki
After being showed that sweet space s Still, if Yue glanced at him, he couldn’t say he didn’t become happy for a moment
“Well, mostly…”
While ridiculing hiain, he crushed the head of the frost turtle, while shi+zuku again chopped the feet that regenerated on the lowered side
Naturally though, it was incapacitated, its temporary stop in movement would be over soon, and after just thirty seconds
It is, in a word…
“shi+zuku! Ryuutaro Fall back I will go… you ht!”
That’s right, the tiht was reached, the enor from his holy sword proved as such
Kouki lept forward using a disc created with Aerodynaed out
DoOOOO!!
The aura undulated, and it ale quantity of pure-white light dyed the surroundings
The Frost Turtle, to that bo towards it, transformed its shell into a cone, in an attempt to distribute the power of the attack A five ht impacted the back of the Frost Turtle
“Kuwaaaan!!!”
A terrific impact sounded and reverberated in the entire area The screa of the Frost Turtle resounded with frustration Its shell, even with its transfor to its plan, would distribute the power of the attack – Heaven’s Might was indeed distributed
