Don't use Type-Moon references in Oregairu!

As if by telepathy, Yukino Yukinoshita dodged Rimonsen's attack by doing a triple and a half spin in the air and then jumping, and grabbed the Philosopher's Stone without turning her head.

Without any hesitation, she activated the skill with a very low success rate.

[Melt ENVY: EX]

That was a special skill derived from Meltryllis, a high-level AI from the Moon's Mind, a special product of the [Melt Virus] after it was contaminated by the original sin of envy.

If it's the real entity, using [Melt ENVY: EX] can even dissolve all living beings present, turning them into experience points for its own growth.

However, Yukino Yukinoshita could not do that. Rather, even the ability of swimsuit Lilith to transform into fluid was used by chance.

Rather, it's thanks to Rimonsen that this illusory, conceptual ocean was created, and that it exudes an aura of jealousy, permeating it. Yukino Yukinoshita seized upon this tiny possibility, and with the assistance of Yui Yuigahama, used her powerful calculations to change her form in this perfectly fitting place, transforming into the mysterious Alterego·Λ.

Even so, she had only mastered a portion of the skills, and the time she could change her posture was very short.

"Only 6 minutes left?" Yukino Yukinoshita hardened her heart and risked activating [Melt ENVY:EX].

In an instant, her perspective changed.

Everything in the world lost its original shape, leaving only aggregates of magical power.

The monster before them possessed immense magical power, causing Yukino Yukinoshita to tremble slightly—if she possessed such power, she could not only dominate the Ocean of Concepts, but also severely injure everyone present in an instant.

They could only be thankful that the other party was an inexperienced monster, an infant created from a mythical fantasy.

However, the magic power of the guy opposite him could not be absorbed at all... No, not only him, but even Fujimaru Ritsuka next to him, or Machio Naruzo, whose magic power was like a candle in the wind, could not plunder magic power as freely as Meltryllis herself.

However, this huge magic crystal in my hand is perfectly capable.

Her internal thought process seemed lengthy, but to outsiders, it appeared as a mere pause of less than half a second.

The Philosopher's Stone in his hand had melted away as quickly as ice and snow exposed to the sun.

"Ah, this feeling is amazing!!! I feel like I can do anything!"

Yukino Yukinoshita's eyes are as bright as the morning star at dawn.

Her exclamation pierced the air, causing countless waves to surge around her, transforming into a Leviathan penguin that rushed towards Leviathan like a magnet.

The monster roared in a sorry state and launched all the scales off its body in one go.

Countless explosions erupted around it. Just as it was congratulating itself on defusing the enemy's attack, it discovered that the foundation of the ocean of concepts was being stirred up.

My control of the situation has gradually slipped from a 50/50 split at the beginning to almost a 40/60 split.

Even with no experience and a nearly blank mind, instincts kept warning it: this can't go on.

It abandoned its defense against Yukino Yukinoshita's offensive, even as the flying treasures of the Enterprise continued to rush towards it, and instead unleashed all its magical power, shaking the entire ocean of concepts.

Yukino Yukinoshita's confident expression wavered. She had planned to use this method of summoning Leviathan penguins to transform into water guns to gradually wear down her opponent and slowly seize control of the conceptual ocean. This could be accomplished in as little as 5 minutes.

But the way the other side recklessly burned its magic and seized control of the ocean of concepts was completely unexpected: this beast had actually become smarter?

Rimon's next move threw Yukino Yukinoshita into complete disarray.

Having regained about 40% control of the conceptual ocean, it coiled its body into a snake formation, letting out a mournful cry like a whale's lament, materializing a realistic ocean illusion, with water walls rising about 100 meters high all around.

Sensing an ominous aura, it decided to exhaust all its magical power, unleash its innate treasure, and summon a tsunami symbolizing the end of the world, burying everyone in the entire otherworld together.

It's worth noting that natural tsunamis with waves tens of meters high have nearly destroyed Chile. Even if the tsunami triggered by Ben Mohansen wasn't as powerful as those in nature, it was still terrifying enough.

"Damn it, this guy is completely ignoring everything!"

Yukino Yukinoshita is somewhat powerless. She currently has 60% control, which isn't enough to unleash her second Noble Phantasm and interfere with her opponent...

The opponent's magic was now fully ignited, and despite continuous damage, it was now more than ten times stronger than hers, making it impossible to interrupt. Conversely, if it didn't involve a conceptual struggle, experience and skill wouldn't be able to stop Lemonsen from interfering with her.

"We met again on the river and sea, but I could hardly recognize my former lord. The moon in the clouds at midnight vanished without a trace—"

Amidst the irritating wail of the whales, a strange voice suddenly rang out, clear and gentle like an angel's, instantly clearing the air filled with vexation and miasma. Yukino Yukinoshita felt as if she had been given an unknown power.

That is a power specifically designed to counter [demonic nature] against monsters that are enemies of humans.

[Poem A by Kasen!]

The sudden change caused Rimo Ansen to pause in his actions. Then, the voice rang out again: "Although I am not skilled in Yin-Yang arts, I will still let you taste the incantation directly passed down by Abe no Seimei!"

[Spell (Word): D+]!

Instantly, the cursed power formed from magic combined with the previous exorcising power, penetrating deep into Rimoanson's body like a malignant tumor, forcefully interrupting the magic power that maintained its Noble Phantasm.

Who could it be?! Yukino Yukinoshita turned around in surprise and saw Kasumigaoka Utaha, who was pale and swaying.

"It's time!" Fujimaru Ritsuka, supporting the staggering Kasumigaoka Utaha, revealed a look of surprise: "It worked! Its Noble Phantasm was interrupted and is now being countered! It's your turn, Yukino!"

I know without you telling me!

Yukino Yukinoshita was oblivious to the strange feeling that was welling up inside her.

The opponent was consumed by the magic backlash and completely lost control of the ocean, while the falling giant wave saved her the trouble of dealing with it.

"Come, in this summer, let us sing a lament for sin."

80. When one is powerless to resist, one should take advantage of another's vulnerability.

The towering water wall, having lost its driving force and the magic to sustain it, slowly collapsed, transforming into a small tsunami wave that crashed down.

The earth-shattering, inescapable tsunami scene made Yukino Yukinoshita smile from the bottom of her heart.

"The raging tsunami fills the heavens and earth, burying all that is not of my will into the abyss! Judge the great sins under the summer sun! [Great Tsunami - Elegy for the Seven Sins]!"

"The Seven Deadly Sins of the Great Tsunami" is a terrifying EX-rank anti-world Noble Phantasm. During the swimsuit storyline, the ocean that constantly surrounded Las Vegas was a product of this Noble Phantasm. But what would happen if it were used entirely for destructive purposes?

Even if one-tenth or even one-hundredth of its power cannot be fully replicated, being able to glimpse even a fraction of it is already a rare and amazing experience.

The raging tsunami that descended from the sky was tamed. Power was like an invisible giant hand, firmly controlling the massive torrent that was pouring down, turning it into countless azure ribbons that floated and wrapped around Rimonsen, without affecting Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others who were hundreds of meters away.

What is the scene like during a tsunami?

Fujimaru Ritsuka was also witnessing this scene for the first time. He saw countless huge waves roaring and crashing towards Rimonsen.

The water flowed so fast that countless white lines appeared in the torrent, and a huge undercurrent surged in unseen places, brutally tearing its scales and body apart bit by bit.

Lemonsen roared madly and struggled in agony, but upon closer inspection, no matter how severe its injuries, they did not seem to affect its movements at all, and its consciousness remained perfectly clear.

Kasumigaoka Utaha had finally recovered somewhat. She was wearing a twelve-layered kimono and looked sickly. She leaned softly against Fujimaru Ritsuka's arm, and her hot body temperature made Fujimaru Ritsuka feel uncomfortable.

She tucked a strand of her straight black hair behind her ear, leaned closer to Fujimaru Ritsuka, and asked him, "Fujimaru-kun, you look like you've just realized something. What's the matter?"

Wow, this sudden display of such gentle and refined ladylike mannerisms, coupled with her classical speaking style, is truly a rare experience.

Fujimaru Ritsuka stepped aside slightly from Kasumigaoka Utaha, who was standing quite close, and answered the question that everyone was listening to: "I just have a guess that Rimonsen is a social animal, and even the so-called pain that the body feels may just be the long-standing obsession of the components."

These words, especially those of Machigami Naruzo who had just woken up, seemed to have a similar vague feeling. Kasumigaoka Utaha also noticed this. She held up a small fan and covered her mouth: "No wonder when I cast a spell on Rimonsen, I always felt that although he was quite large, he was a bit loose."

They didn't continue the discussion because Yukino Yukinoshita's Noble Phantasm had entered the next stage.

Countless streams of water converged, forming a massive whirlpool that trapped the monster within, rendering it immobile. Instead, the monster was continuously harmed by the immense force generated by the compressed whirlpool.

At this moment, Yukino Yukinoshita underwent a seemingly ominous change. All her magical power appeared to pour out, merging into the controlled torrent. As everyone gasped in astonishment, Yukino Yukinoshita, with almost no magical power remaining in her body, transformed into a fluid and then merged into the swirling, enormous vortex.

"Huh? There's such a thing? Completely dispersing and integrating magic power, and then using a completely fluid..." Fujimaru Ritsuka didn't finish her sentence.

Because the ocean is turbulent, no, it's contracting.

From the moment this otherworld was formed, Fujimaru Ritsuka sensed an omnipresent moisture in the air, and the concept of the ocean always existed in this space.

Now, countless water vapors have completely transformed into part of that cage.

Then, the hundreds of square meters where Lemerson stood were completely transformed into an ocean. Whirlpools connected within it, and a huge, beautiful creature rose from the sea.

This creature had no flesh and blood; it was entirely composed of crystal-clear water, like a magnificent work of art, lifelike, with intricate and practical overlapping scales that served as shields, enormous crown-like horns, and a slender and beautiful body. Its head was delicate, yet exuded majesty and solemnity, possessing a charm that stole all light and attention.

"..."

So beautiful. The dim light, filtering through her body, refracted and formed a rainbow-like garment, or perhaps the auspicious clouds and rosy light accompanying a soaring dragon.

She raised her head and let out a long, drawn-out cry, a sound unlike Lemonsen's, which was dull and gloomy; rather, it was like the song of sirens echoing from the depths of the sea's mist. The difference was that she possessed unparalleled confidence.

This enormous dragon, or rather Leviathan, used its long, sharp teeth to trap Leviathan in his cage, then soared into the sky.

High in the sky, a burst of deep blue light erupted, shrinking everything into a tiny point before exploding. Everything turned to ashes.

A massive amount of rain fell from the sky, most of which slowly dissolved into magic in mid-air, but it was still a torrential downpour.

Snowflakes fall backward in the torrential rain, seemingly slow but actually fast, their bodies as light and airy as a small leaf in a storm.

"Under the Snow!"

Fujimaru Ritsuka handed Kasumigaoka Utaha, whom she was supporting, to Yuigahama Yui, unaware of the somewhat resentful look in her eyes, and rushed out without hesitation.

He spewed crimson flames from his feet, soaring into the sky like Iron Man, preparing to ease Yukino Yukinoshita's falling posture.

"The momentum is so strong, but the weight is so light!"

At the moment of contact, Fujimaru Ritsuka was constantly adjusting her speed, but she was somewhat taken aback by Yukino Yukinoshita's current state.

That powerful Noble Phantasm just now seemed to have completely exhausted all of Yukino Yukinoshita's energy; she was now as light as a swallow twirling in the palm of one's hand.

So warm.

In the instant before Yukino was being carried in a princess carry, this was the only feeling she could think of.

Her hands hung limply at her sides as she looked at his profile, then suddenly laughed: "What's wrong? Didn't you once say that if you had the chance, you'd get revenge on me and tuck me under your armpits? Now's your perfect opportunity for revenge, you scumbag!"

"You can say less, our great hero. I'm not some kind of devil!" Fujimaru Ritsuka was relieved. The fact that she could still talk nonsense and let her thoughts wander meant that her body was still okay.

He suddenly realized something and grinned mischievously at Yukino Yukinoshita, saying, "Oh my, you're trying to persuade me to let go with this weird topic. Are you shy? Let me see if you're blushing!"

That guy!

Snowfall was so angry it made her teeth itch.

Fujimaru Ritsuka offended me twice today in the alternate world, and I can't do anything about it now. I'll remember this grudge.

Fermentation, Extra Chapters, and Thanks

It's February 7th now. My total updates this month are approximately 38000 words, averaging 5,000 words per day. I think I've been pretty conscientious...

So, for those big spenders who were still nurturing their accounts at the end of the month due to those questionable actions, just hold on a little longer. Since that day, daily subscriptions have been halved. For the sake of consistent updates, could you please subscribe a little?

Regarding extra chapters: I probably copied the reward rules from a top author, and I really can't reach the daily limit... But I secretly checked the calculator, and the only cumulative reward I've reached is through donations. So, I won't humiliate myself anymore; I'll just ask for subscriptions and update extra chapters whenever I feel like it.
