While steel defenses are powerful, they require divine power to maintain their effectiveness.
Even if this authority could provide ten points of defense with a little divine power, it would still be impossible to protect oneself when facing an attack with more than ten times the energy.
Given the scale of energy Jibril possesses, even without the restraining forces of the sun or high temperatures, a slight addition of offensive authority would be enough to break through her defenses.
But the other party did not do that; all Lancelot felt was the purest torrent of energy.
"Could it be that she doesn't actually have any power?"
Guinevere, who was observing, made this conjecture.
"They may not even have mastered magic... their only remarkable ability is their exquisite control over magical power."
After regaining her senses, she quickly realized that the opponent's attack was simply a release of energy.
While not entirely devoid of skill, and arguably even surpassing the gods in the art of energy gathering, it is utterly lacking in the construction of techniques, the utilization of concepts, and even the power of authority.
"That's true."
Lancelot pondered for two seconds and quickly accepted Guinevere's conjecture.
"Your energy level is indeed far superior to ours, but your skill in using power is still inferior to that of some divine beasts..."
In terms of energy, Jibril may indeed possess an overwhelming advantage.
However, in terms of skill, her level seems to be lower than that of an ordinary paladin.
Even Erica possesses a few god-slaying techniques, while Jibril can only compress and condense energy.
This approach undoubtedly lowers the upper limit of the energy's explosive power and significantly reduces its lethality.
That's why Lancelot was able to withstand her attack unscathed.
"Authority? Isn't that a power possessed only by gods?"
Jibril didn't think there was anything wrong with her.
"But isn't this the most basic premise?"
Lancelot retorted with a question.
The two looked at each other, realizing that the other's power system was completely different from what they were familiar with.
Jibril then truly realized that the being opposite her was indeed a genuine god, not one of those inferior races she could kill at will. She had been too arrogant before.
Lancelot then realized that he had been worrying too much. The Skywing creature in front of him was more like a divine beast that had obtained a huge amount of energy. Although powerful, it was not without weaknesses.
[Rin Tohsaka: "You scared me to death! I thought you could easily defeat a disobedient god! I didn't expect you couldn't even do that."]
[Rin Tohsaka: "Just a friendly reminder, Lord Su Mo instantly killed this disobedient god."]
Seeing Jibril's humiliation, Rin Tohsaka immediately perked up and was no longer afraid.
I was worried that if Jibril won, she would actually come to visit my home.
Now it seems she can't even handle Lancelot, so how could she possibly handle Su Mo?
She was ready to vent her pent-up fear and anxiety, like someone kicking someone when they're down.
Jibril's expression was initially somewhat serious, but after seeing Rin Tohsaka's mockery, her brow twitched.
"Hmph! It's too early to be smug!"
"The reason it failed before was simply because I underestimated the opponent. Even without control, it won't affect my victory in the slightest."
"If one portion of energy isn't enough, then use two. If two portions aren't enough, then use ten! A true strongman should be like Lord Altshu, destroying everything with absolute violence!"
With an incredibly fervent attitude, Jibril finally mobilized all the elven power in her body this time.
The previous attacks were merely a test with five percent of their power; this time, they're really going all out.
Upon hearing this, Lancelot shook his head.
"No wonder the lord said you don't understand power."
Want to overwhelm everything with pure violence? That's a gross underestimation of the power of gods or disobedient gods.
Authority is the crystallization of divine power and the ultimate application of concepts.
Without grasping this point, it's difficult to stand on the same level as the gods.
Upon hearing this, Jibril gave a cold laugh.
"Don't understand power? No, it's you who don't understand what pure violence is!"
As she spoke, the geometric halo above her head flickered until it almost dimmed, and all the elves on her body were completely drained.
The previous terrifying aura vanished completely, leaving only a deathly silence.
If a Celestial Winged One were here, they would surely recognize this classic starting move.
This is clearly the stance of the Skywing race using their strongest move – [Sky Strike].
Drain all your strength and then release it all in one breath.
Even for a Skywing race member, it would take several years to recover after using this move; without a doubt, it's a desperate technique.
085 Star Sword VS Sky Strike
Unlike her previous relaxed and casual attitude, this time, Jibril's slender body trembled slightly.
Concentrating such a massive amount of energy to its limit is something that requires all-out effort, even for the Skywing race.
In return, the power gained in this way is considerable.
Lancelot and Guinevere, who had initially underestimated their opponent, now had completely serious expressions on their faces.
"It actually possesses this level of energy! That's more than ten times the normal level!"
At the tip of that spear of light, Lancelot sensed an extremely dangerous aura.
She knew Jibril had a lot of energy, but she didn't expect it to be this much.
Even with the protection of steel, it would be impossible to save her life under such a level of energy difference.
She had a premonition that if she were to meet this attack head-on, she, along with the ring-shaped mountain range behind her and even the entire continent, would be completely pulverized and vaporized by the spear of light before her.
Such a large gap cannot be bridged simply by having the advantage of power.
The energy capable of breaking the continent far exceeded the limits of her spiritual capacity.
"To concentrate magic to this extent, this is a skill that has reached the level of a saint, or even approaches the level of authority!"
Guinevere's eyes also flashed with intense shock.
Although the Skywing race before them was completely ignorant of the use of magic, their exquisite control over magic was something that even ordinary disobedient gods might not be able to match.
Extracting all the energy from one's body and then unleashing it all at once—this technique seems simple, but in reality, it's almost impossible for anyone to do.
Even the strongest disobedient god would almost never be able to exhaust all of his divine power in one strike.
But, ironically, they managed to do it.
Not only can it project all its power, but it can even control it.
To put it bluntly, this kind of control is close to the realm of authority.
It seemed as if the opponent was born to construct this technique. After converging all her power in this extreme way, Guinevere was absolutely certain that the Skywing girl in front of her could really pierce through the continent with a single blow.
Such an attack is definitely not something that a normal, disobedient god or a god-slayer can withstand.
Even Lancelot, who was blessed by the [Sword Codex], couldn't do it.
"Su Mo... Master!"
Without time to hesitate, although she wasn't entirely convinced of her new master's authority, Guinevere lowered her head at this crucial moment, wanting to seek a solution from Su Mo.
"Uncle's strength is insufficient to withstand this attack. Please understand!"
Not wanting Lancelot to die in vain, she frantically issued a warning.
Faced with this warning, Lancelot, who was usually very competitive, did not refute it, which was unusual.
She didn't mind continuing to charge ahead, but she couldn't let her own pointless desire to win cause her lord to misjudge the battlefield situation.
"I know."
Su Mo's answer reassured Guinevere somewhat.
Since he knows this, he should have a way to deal with the enemy in front of him, right?
Unbeknownst to her, in the face of external enemies, she had unknowingly come to regard her new master as her support.
Not only her, but everyone in the chat group held their breath and stared intently at Su Mo.
If Su Mo loses to the Skywing race in front of him, the established patterns of the chat group may have to change.
Everyone in the group will likely be under Jibril's tyranny.
Apart from Jibril, no one wanted to see Su Mo lose.
Fortunately, Su Mo's expression remained calm as always, which allowed them to maintain their confidence.
Under the expectant gazes of everyone, Su Mo calmly revealed his solution.
"Saber, it's all yours now!"
"Yes, Master!"
Artoria took a step forward with a resolute expression, her golden ahoge (cowlick) moving without any wind.
"what?"
Guinevere was stunned when she saw this.
Rin Tohsaka: "?"
Kanae: "?"
Erica: "?"
"My lord, what's wrong...?"
