Chapter 134 (1/2)

What is that…?

I, Kashima Kobato, was astonished.

A gigantic monster appeared as it mowed down the trees on its path.

It looks like a slug.

However, that doesn’t change our situation and that monster doesn’t really match the original appearance of the animal associated with it.

I could also see some other resemblance from other animals from this grotesque monster.

There were its two golden eyes on both sides on the top of its head.

Its eyes resemble those of a dragonfly.

There’s also that part that looks like the nose of an elephant.

Are those its tentacles? (T/N: feelers)

There are several of them growing out from its back.

Asagi group’s Chigasaki Atsuko turned pale.

[How should I say this… There was something that looked like human arms growing out from both sides of its body… Uwwaaahhh… Disgusting… Honestly, it’s too disgusting no matter how I look at it…]

Moreover, it seems that there are several more of them in there.

There isn’t just one of them in there.

Most of the Heroes who have fallen back were intimidated.

It may be because of its grotesque appearance.

However, even if you were to put that aside, I could feel that this monster is strong.

Brutally strong.

Even with just a glance, I immediately knew it.

This monster is on a different level compared to the ones we’ve encountered in the Demon Zone.

No wonder that the Four Revered Saints immediately instructed us to fall back.

[………………]

Ssstt

Nyantan bent her upper body forward.

Flexible and elegant movements.

A stance where her upper body is closer to the ground than her buttocks.

Her snake sword on the back of her waist was now stretching out.

Her sword emitted light as it stood upright, pointing towards the sky.

It kind of resembles the pose of a cat that was intimidated.

Nyantan called out to Agito.

[I will deal with the one in the front.]

[Are you going to fight?]

[Yes, I will go.]

[Then, I will deal with the two following it. How about you, Abyss? Are you going to join?]

[But of course.]

The three people leading the fight look like they have enough composure against them.

I can’t help but gulp.

(Even before such a monster, they could afford to have composure like that…)

[Nuuuuuooonnnn!]

The pseudo-slug that had leaves and branches stuck on its viscous body began spreading out its tentacles.

With her body leaning forward, Nyantan charged.

A tentacle swooped down towards her.

(I can’t see it…)

Lashing towards them with a speed of sound, My eyes couldn’t follow its movements as its tentacles rampaged.

At best, I could only hear the sound of the empty air being slashed.

However, Nyantan keeps evading the tentacles just like an evasive cat.

The monster’s tentacles can’t catch her.

In the next moment— from the end of its tentacles, a blade suddenly sprang out.

A Grim Reaper’s scythe.

The shape of the blade kind of resembles that after it sprang out of the tentacle.

It looks like a boisterous dance of sickles.

It’s as if there was a horde of Kamaitachi jumping around in the air in ecstasy. (T/N: Sickle Weasel)

However, the speed of Nyantan’s sword isn’t any worse that the tentacle as she repelled the sickles hurling towards her.

No— On the contrary, she has been crushing the monster’s blades.

The quality of the sharpness and strength of their strikes were different.

And, a gaping hole opened up In the front part of its body.

If I were to base it on where those golden eyes were positioned, it appears that hole looks like its mouth—

[Ooggeerrororoooooo—!]

Bwwwuuuaaarrggghhhh!

It vomited.

The liquid that the monster vomited gushed out towards the ground.

Then, I could hear the sound of bubbles popping out on the ground.

The odor that invaded my nose.

It then manipulated its tentacles and tried leading her towards the strong acidic liquid it released earlier.

Even if it couldn’t capture her with its tentacles, it just thought of melting her with the acid it’s spewing out.

It’s a two-pronged attack.

That must have been the monster’s certain victory pattern huh.

However…

Nyantan had already disappeared from where the monster spewed that acid out.

(Ah—)

I finally saw where Nyantan is.

[Ooorrroooorororooonnnn~!?]

When did she move towards there?

Nyantan appeared behind the monster.

Just when the monster finally realized that its prey disappeared, all of its tentacles swooped towards the girl while she’s in mid-air.

With Nyantan in the center, her snake sword continuously expanded out as it spiralled around her.

The whole length of the blade ended up being much longer than the assaulting tentacles—

Whooossshhh!

Immediately after the sound of wind being torn reached my ears, several tentacles were sliced apart smoothly at the same time.

The sword that Nyantan handles.

It seems that its sharpness had been mysteriously increasing.

Just like a fierce raging snake, her sword amputated the monster’s tentacles.

Blood squirting out, the soft flesh of the monster began falling down on the ground one after another.

In the moment, her sword intensely glowed.

Her sword became even longer than before.

[Orooouuuaaaaaahhhhhh!?]

Thud!

Kneeling on the ground, Nyantan lands.

Behind her, her serpentine blade surrounded the monster just like a raging storm.

The monster tried to brush away the sword with its gigantic arm.

However, the arm it swung was amputated without the monster having any time to pull its arm back.

It was just a matter of seconds.

The monster ended up torn apart in pieces.

(A- Amazing…)

That’s not just the power of her mysterious sword (?).

The movements of Nyantan herself were absurdly sophisticated.

Even I could tell that.

I can’t help but be fascinated with the way she fights.

(That’s the power of a Vysis’ Apostle… R- Rather than relying on us Heroes, I think they should have just relied on people like her to defeat the Great Demon Emperor…)
