Simply put, the bullets fired by Shi passed through the gaps between more than twenty ice and snow eagles in the air.
Under the wings of the Ice Eagle, between its legs, under its neck...
Hajime turned his back without even looking, and while dealing with other monsters, he executed this shooting that was like passing through the hole of a pinhole, and it succeeded perfectly.
The word "unique skill" is not enough to describe it; it can be said to be a "divine skill" that transcends the human realm.
"...So reliable."
Shizuku even forgot that this was a battlefield, and her eyes couldn't help but be drawn to the mighty Hajime.
However, her consciousness was brought back by a powerful shout.
"Stop being so arrogant—[Heavy Punch]!"
Ryutaro jumped high into the air.
The giant frost turtle attempted to pursue Shizuku again, but Ryuutarou resolved to stop it this time. He flipped in mid-air, using his aerodynamics as a foothold, and plummeted like a meteorite. Simultaneously, he activated the gauntlet's new ability, temporarily increasing its weight dozens of times thanks to the added gravity magic.
By stepping from the sky to the ground, the acceleration of gravity becomes extraordinary. When combined with the iron fist transformed into a super-heavy weapon, the power is equivalent to the impact of a meteorite.
The moment of impact caused a violent vibration, and the shock wave stirred the air.
The giant frost turtle shattered as if it had been blown up. That's right, its entire head was gone, leaving only its long neck.
Just as Ryutaro intended, the Frost Giant Turtle's attack on Shizuku was interrupted. Although his body was floating in the air due to the reaction force, Ryutaro still smiled triumphantly.
However, it was premature to say that he had "given it a good show." Ryuutarou did not see the new head emerge from Shizuku's severed right foreleg.
Even though it looks like a turtle, its opponent is made of ice. It cannot be measured by common sense, nor should it be measured by common sense.
“Huh!? Oops—”
The moment I landed, I saw a dark red gaze in front of me.
Killer eyes gleamed, and his mouth opened wide. Feeling a vast amount of magic power and cold air gathering deep within his mouth, Ryuutarou hurriedly crossed his arms in front of him. His body radiated a deep green glow, enveloped by the aura of "Vajra."
(Will I make it through? No, I will make it through!)
Ryutaro urged himself to be aware of the situation.
To shatter his consciousness and his body, the Ice Fang Breath was unleashed—just before it struck, a hexagonal barrier shimmering in orange light appeared before Ryutaro. Under the breath's immense power, the barrier cracked in an instant. However, the next instant, another identical barrier joined them, gradually increasing to a double, then triple barrier.
"Oh, oh? Is this Ling's 'Tenzetsu' mother?"
Ryuutarou, though perplexed, turned to look. He saw a petite barrier master standing before the chanting radiance, a smug expression on her face.
——The highest level of light-attribute compound defense magic "Holy Absolute Realm".
"Heaven's Severance" is a mid-level defensive magic that can deploy multiple barriers. This is a composite barrier that combines the properties of "Heaven's Severance" with "Holy Severance." The iron fan to Ling's left can add special effects to the barriers; it's the only artifact Ling desires.
In order to deploy the necessary barriers in the necessary locations, Suzu's magic, "Tenjutsu," which has the highest efficiency in magic power, is her specialty. Being able to apply "Tenjutsu" to all enchantments is incredibly useful.
With an "Ah", Ling's expression changed from smug to anxious.
Ryutaro had a bad feeling, so he quickly turned back to face the front, only to see the Frost Turtle raise its head...
"What! A second head!?"
Yes, it was the second one. From where the original head had been destroyed, a second head appeared. Even after experiencing it firsthand, and finding it impossible to measure with common sense, my own lack of understanding was still highlighted.
The head transformed from the front leg was still breathing out air, and Ryutaro was hiding behind the barrier, unable to take any action.
Ling further deployed the floating barrier of "Holy Absolute Realm" to increase Ryutaro's defense.
Guanghui was completely defenseless during the chant, and Ling used all her strength to defend Guanghui. So, in order to save magic power, she chose to use this barrier, but...
(If I had known this, I would have just opened the omnidirectional barrier normally!)
Ling felt anxious because she didn't know if she could prevent everything.
However, her worries seemed to be unnecessary.
Because just as Hajime knew the situation on the battlefield perfectly, the other strongest one was the same.
Just as the Frost Turtle's second head opened its mouth, a powerful Thunder Dragon attacked from the side and bit off its head like a nightmare. The rumbling thunder was like the Frost Turtle's wail.
"Wow, w-what? So sudden..."
The Thunder Dragon shattered the Frost Turtle's head in an instant, drew an arc, passed over Ryuutarou's back, and then returned to its master.
The electric current that passed through made Ryutaro's body tremble. Perhaps he felt shy, and he complained as if to hide his shyness.
He followed the flying Thunder Dragon and saw that although he certainly didn't hear Ryuutarou's complaint, the Thunder Dragon's master, Yue, glanced over.
Yue waved her slender fingers like a baton, controlling the seven "Thunder Dragons" and raised her chin to Ryuutarou.
There is no need for words, even the slow-witted Ryutaro can vaguely understand it.
Yue was scolding him, "Don't be careless, cheer up."
Ryutaro scratched his head roughly, a wry smile naturally appearing on his face.
"Oh, I was really defeated by her."
His breath weakened, and Ryutaro braced himself, determined not to let his guard down this time. He seemed to be infused with energy, a domineering aura emanating from him.
The breath stopped, and the barrier disappeared at the same time. Ryutaro rushed forward with the momentum of crushing the ground beneath his feet.
"I'm so envious, damn it."
Ryuutarou cursed while using his "Breaking Fist" to smash the head growing on the front leg from the front.
Contrary to his words, his fists were free of negative emotions and were cheerful and straightforward.
The reason he cursed and the subtle increase in the power of his punches was actually because Yue was looking at him. However, this was a secret he absolutely could not reveal.
Back in the day, in the Great Labyrinth of Orcus, the Azure Dragon's flames reflected the Moon's otherworldly beauty and purity, and Ryuutarou was one of those people who was completely captivated by it. He couldn't bring himself to speak of this.
After falling in love at first sight, Ryuutarou immediately lost his love when he saw the erotic space created by Yue and Hajime. He couldn't even tell his good friend Guanghui about this.
"I'm really stupid."
Continuously watching Yue and Hajime's sweet, almost sugar-sweet relationship, Ryutaro had already calmed down and reached the point where jealousy no longer lingered. However, this little thing still made him overjoyed, and Ryutaro couldn't help but laugh at himself.
Even so, Ryuutarou didn't want her "rebuke" to turn into "disappointment" or even "indifference," so he pushed harder. Using his karate-based techniques, he delivered a graceful and powerful combo of blows that struck the giant frost turtle's front, drawing its attention. Shizuku seized the opportunity to sever several more of its legs, causing it to collapse.
Although the Frost Turtle regenerated quickly, the two men must have completed their mission perfectly. Their mission was to buy time - the long-awaited moment finally arrived.
"Shizuku! Ryuutarou! Back off!"
“! Got it!”
"I've been waiting for so long!"
With a beep, a spiral of light erupted. The holy sword was raised high, shining like a star, and a huge amount of magic power gradually gathered.
That is the radiance of the hero's trump card.
“Take it, monster! — [Kamiu]!”
That's right, this is the highest-level light-attribute attack magic, 『Strike of Divine Power』.
The erupting torrent of light was swung down in the form of a sword.
“Guoooooooooooooooooooo!”
In an instant, its carapace shattered, and the giant frost turtle screamed. Although it barely escaped being cut in half, its deadly light remained undimmed.
The essence of "Divine Power" is bombardment. The holy sword swung down, its blade aimed straight at its target, and its fierce form shifted from a slash of light to a bombardment. The annihilating white light continued to wreak havoc, aiming to annihilate the giant frost turtle.
“Ooooooooooooooooooooo!!”
A strong murderous aura burst out from the light that pierced the holy sword.
The atmosphere shook, a howl echoing as the ground beneath the beams ripped apart. A massive flash of light stained the air in pure white. It was a startling sight, like the sun appearing.
“GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!”
The cracks in space began to make sounds, and the Frost Giant Turtle's anxious screams echoed all around.
Then, the Frost Turtle's head retracted into its body, and the front part that was hit by the bombardment deformed into a cone shape.
It could be said that this was a desperate struggle, and the conical shield did indeed disperse the power of the "God's Power". However, the effect was only a drop in the bucket.
"Divine Power" was originally the hero's most powerful attack, possessing devastating power. Now, after being forged by a peerless master, its power was even greater. The conical shield cracked in the blink of an eye, and was destroyed the next instant.
The Frost Turtle relied on the ice armor of its massive body to withstand the attack. However, like the wings of Ikaros caught in the sun, its body began to smoke and evaporate in the blink of an eye.
It was as if it had absorbed all the regenerative power of the surrounding ice, becoming its last resort.
Will the destruction of "God's Might" prevail? Or will the "regeneration" of the Frost Giant Turtle prevail?
“Just… just disappear like this!! I need… I need strength ahhhhhh!!”
The Frost Turtle resisted stubbornly, while Guanghui screamed with all his might.
This was truly the strongest attack that Guanghui could unleash at this point. If the Frost Giant Turtle could withstand it, it would prove that even with Guanghui's all-out attack, she was still no match for the Great Labyrinth Monster.
This is the only point he cannot agree with, absolutely not.
We must defeat the enemy with our own strength no matter what.
In order to prevent the dark emotions that had been building up inside him from continuing to bubble up after meeting Hajime again.
In order to promote what you believe is right.
In order to be able to deny the reality that I don’t desire!
"...Mitsuki-san."
Ling, who was standing by, saw Guanghui's expression and showed a slight fear on her face. However, Guanghui was too busy to notice her expression and tone.
“Ooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!”
“GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!”
The final cries of the Radiance and the Frost Turtle clashed fiercely. Then, the sound of ice breaking rang out with remarkable clarity.
As if that were a signal, countless cracks instantly appeared across the Frost Turtle's body. It was like fragments of life were gradually peeling away, and tiny shards of ice were scattered on the ground.
And then finally—
“──!?”
The inaudible sound was swallowed by the torrent of light.
The pure white flash penetrated the huge body of the Frost Turtle, even shattering the ice wall behind it.
A gaping hole opened in the center of the giant frost turtle's body. Perhaps unable to bear its own weight, its body split in two, following the deep wound left by the initial divine power strike, as if broken from the inside.
At the same time, as if announcing the end of the heroic struggle, the light of "Divine Power" also merged into the void and finally disappeared.
There was a crackling sound, and the remains of the giant frost turtle were scattered on the ground.
There seems to be no sign of regeneration.
“I, I succeeded… Fufu… It was me… I defeated him…”
Guanghui panted as he spoke, his shoulders heaving violently. Perhaps because he was mentally relaxed, his body swayed, and Ling quickly supported him.
"Mitsuki-kun, you're okay—"
Ling hid the dangerous aura she had just sensed from Guanghui in her heart and wanted to comfort him worriedly.
At this moment, a frost eagle suddenly flew out from the wreckage, giving people the illusion that the wreckage of a giant frost turtle exploded.
"What! Why are you still moving?"
Guanghui's eyes widened with fatigue, and he was utterly astonished. Ling said nervously, "Guanghui-san, look over there!" and pointed.
Ling was referring to the dark red crystal that the Frosthawk was holding in its claws.
"Damn it!! Isn't it completely destroyed?!"
Guanghui trembled with excitement. Apparently, the Frost Turtle, upon realizing it could not defeat Guanghui's divine might, immediately transferred the magic stone to the Frost Hawk that had emerged from its feet.
It was truly tenacious and cunning. While it could be said to be worthy of being a monster from the Great Labyrinth, Guanghui was in no mood to praise the enemy, as such a thing was unacceptable.
"Don't even think about escaping, 'Ten-Sho'—Ugh!"
"Mitsuki-san!"
Guanghui intended to unleash a slash of light, this time determined to kill the enemy. However, the hand holding the holy sword was weak and trembling due to the depletion of magic power, and he could not raise the sword as he wished.
The holy armor on Guanghui's body had also been modified, adding the effect of "magic energy absorption", so as long as ten seconds, Guanghui would recover to a level without feeling exhausted. However, now there was not even ten seconds.
The Frosthawk, holding the magic stone, has already absorbed it and begun to change its form. If it finds a wall of ice to fly into, it will probably transform into the body of the Frost Turtle again and ring the bell to start the second round (roar).
