After noticing this, Bandu approached the apostle in the air from below, and slashed upwards with the magic sword in one hand, trying to split her in half from the crotch.
The apostle dodged the sword with a sideways roll, summoned two greatswords at the same time, and counterattacked with a sweep of the greatsword.
Of course, the surface of this sword shone with silver light, indicating that it had the ability to decompose.
Bandu met the blow with the Demonic Greatsword in his right hand. Made of ultra-dense Azantium ore and infused with the "Demon Eater" effect, the Demonic Greatsword successfully blocked the blow.
The two were equally matched in strength, but Bandu had no intention of engaging the apostle in a duel. He slid his sword aside with a swish, disarming the First Greatsword. The Second Greatsword immediately struck at his brow, so he ducked, easily dodging the blow and then thrust forward with the Demonic Greatsword in his left hand.
The apostle retreated, so fast that she left an afterimage. However, her feet were already entangled by the extended dragon's tail, and she could no longer retreat...
Suddenly, the dragon's jaws opened wide before my eyes.
「!?」
The apostle quickly raised his two swords and crossed them, and a beam of moonlight dragon breath immediately hit them.
The apostle was not blown away by the impact. The dragon's tail gripped her feet tightly, making her unable to move.
The apostle's body froze rapidly. Although she desperately fired decomposition magic in all directions, the dragon scale armor would not be easily decomposed, making it difficult for her to break free.
At this time, the second apostle fired a disintegration bombardment and approached at the same time.
Of course, Bartram used the space-time gate to defend against and exile the apostles' bombardment.
"I've seen this move before."
"So what?"
The disintegration bombardment was just a pretense. The apostle moved above Bandu at a speed so fast that it left two or three afterimages. Raising the greatsword, he slashed down hard at Bandu's forehead.
Bandu raised his twin demonic swords high above his head, crossing them to block the blow. Before the second greatsword could swing, he flapped his dragon wings and sprayed metallic dragon scales to sweep it away.
"Hmm... Is it a demonic sword!?"
The scales of the dragon wings swishing in large numbers resembled the apostles' silver feathers. These dragon scales were all weapons similar to the "Small Magic Sword Series." Furthermore, they all possessed the "Demon Slayer" effect, capable of severing magical energy.
Although the apostle's body was very strong and could not be hurt by ordinary attacks, this time he was beaten to pieces in an instant.
“This is nothing!!”
The two apostles shouted simultaneously. It was unknown where they got their magical power from, but their abilities suddenly skyrocketed.
The first apostle, gradually freezing, severed its own legs, freeing itself from the dragon's tail. Using its immense arm strength, it peeled off the frost from its body, then used its silver feathers to form a magic circle and unleashed a supreme lightning attack.
The second apostle flew through the air at high speed, leaving an afterimage behind, and fired disintegration bombardments like shotgun shells.
"It seems that what comes next is the key."
Bandu muttered to himself as he dropped down on the spot, avoiding the attack. Then, flapping his dragon wings, he stirred up a wind laden with ice and snow, and took off at high speed.
The two apostles chased after him and attacked him at the same time.
Two silver lights intertwined with a moonlight, flying rapidly in the air around the [Sacred Mountain].
Four great swords swung at us from all directions at super high speed.
Resist, resist again. Bandu trusted in the dragon scale armor, using his entire body as weapons and defense, and launched a counterattack with the twin magic swords.
Only about three minutes had passed, but the intensity of the fight was so high that it felt like an eternity.
At this time, the apostles noticed something.
"Is that our swordsmanship...?"
"Could it be that he has already learned it?"
The way he swung his weapons simultaneously when he first summoned them was exactly the same. Furthermore, the weapons he chose were the same twin greatswords. No wonder they looked strangely familiar, but the apostles paid no attention.
"The fastest way to understand the principles is to practice them yourself."
Even Bandu would inevitably face a tough battle against two apostles at full strength. Although he hadn't been injured yet, his dragon scale armor was already worn to the same degree as Bartram's.
While the two apostles paused their attacks out of shock, Bandu took a deep breath, replenishing his oxygen. He also rested briefly by engaging in conversation.
At the same time, he chuckled and put the hilts of the twin demon swords together.
"If your swordsmanship doesn't improve, you won't be able to catch up with mine."
The two apostles didn't answer, but rushed forward and swung their swords.
The twin demonic greatswords in Bandu's hands merged, their blades extending from the central grip to form a massive weapon—a double-edged demonic greatsword. Bandu spun the weapons, blocking all the attacks.
This is a combat style that Bandu conceived in order to surpass others after thoroughly understanding the principle of the dual greatswords.
Although Bandu only spun the double-edged blade with one hand, the speed was very fast, without a single moment of stagnation. At the same time, he created footholds and ice and snow in the air, moving nimbly on them, as if dancing.
At the same time, he used his free hand to swing out his dragon claws and other weapons, adding dragon wings, dragon tail, and spewing moonlight dragon breath to launch an attack. Such exquisite martial arts, as he often said, could be called an art.
Although the two apostles continued to attack fiercely, they were unable to break through.
They were clearly outnumbered two against one, but were unable to eliminate the enemy before them.
Not only that, the apostles also found that their actions were gradually being seen through by Bandu.
The apostles had a premonition of defeat in their hearts, and they felt that things were not going well. At this time, the final blow finally appeared.
"Sorry I'm late."
Without warning, another participant appeared. This spatial shift was incredibly natural, with barely any distortion occurring.
Hearing these words from behind, the first apostle instinctively wrapped himself in silver wings.
Then, a powerful shockwave struck. It was Natsu's "Sky Shock."
The apostle suddenly felt dizzy. Her body spun in the air. She was about to flap her silver wings to regain her composure when she realized—they were gone.
(The power is completely different.)
The apostle once again sprouted silver wings and managed to regain her composure. However, according to her own analysis, the previous attack had also damaged her internal organs.
Before her, another apostle's hand was severed. Apparently, the concentrated power of the "Heaven Shock" had caused her to pause, allowing Bandu to seize the opportunity and sever her hand.
"Hmm, it seems the attack was indeed effective."
"It's still annoying that I couldn't clean it up right away."
"If it were Meredith, she would have been able to kill him with one strike while Oscar was holding him back. Once the opponent becomes wary, it's naturally impossible to continue attacking."
"But..."
"With Ryu's sublimation magic, we'll be fine. I'm actually a little upset that I couldn't completely destroy it with that attack just now."
"Looks like you still have some practice to do."
The two men stood shoulder to shoulder in mid-air, exchanging words. The two apostles, though expressionless, seemed to be glaring at them.
The apostle whose hand was severed met up with the other apostle. After much deliberation and discussion, they decided to perform a combined magic spell together.
Then, a silver sun appeared above the heads of the two apostles.
"Alright, the hostages and the cathedral are clear, let's go rendezvous."
"Well, it's time to end it."
After saying this, Nizu and Bandu leaned against each other, extending their arms forward. The apostles were wary, but preparations for the combined bombardment were complete, so—
"A chess piece that can't dance must be eliminated."
Launch. No matter what the enemy is plotting, just bomb and destroy them. It will definitely be done—the apostles have no doubt about it.
Then, a silver flash of light, comparable in size to the Lec Airein's main gun, struck Natsu and Bando—no, it didn't.
The main gun stopped in mid-air, as if blocked by an invisible wall. Strangely, the apostle didn't feel like it had hit anything. The cannon continued firing, but it didn't hit anything, nor did it move forward.
It was truly baffling. Even the apostle was stunned and immediately looked around, trying to analyze the cause.
"Is it... a barrier? Is the space blocked?"
The apostles discovered a spherical barrier surrounding them. It was invisible to the naked eye, but the apostles could still see it.
However, strangely enough, if it was a barrier, compound decomposition magic should be able to completely destroy it.
“… Missed it at all?”
That's right, if it hits, it will definitely be destroyed. In that case, there is only one answer—the bombardment didn't hit the barrier.
The apostles responded swiftly. Since the disintegration bombardment hadn't worked for some reason, they simply broke it. The two apostles raised their greatswords and charged forward with a thrusting stance.
However, they stopped just before reaching the barrier. There was no violent collision, but there was no sense of their impact being stifled either. Physically, the apostles still felt like they were moving forward.
But no matter how far you go, you can't reach the front, you can't reach the realm.
“Could it be…!”
At this point, the apostle's expression finally changed noticeably, turning into one of astonishment.
They finally came up with the correct answer.
──The field creates an infinite corridor.
This is a new magic created after understanding the essence of space magic, "interference with boundaries", which is the expansion of spatial distance.
Natsu was continuously increasing the distance between his target and the barrier—the boundary line.
Even if the apostles could move at extremely high speeds, they could not cross the distance between the barriers in an instant—a thousand kilometers.
Such a brief pause is enough to create a fatal flaw.
“…? Um, t-this is…”
The apostle's porcelain-white skin gradually turned a light black, and several dark red lines gradually covered the skin, like blood vessels emerging. The apostle felt that a foreign object was rapidly eroding his body - no, that's not right. This might be...
"Monster!"
"That's right. You conducted the experiment to create the Chimera, and now it's your turn to be the material. How do you feel?"
That was a horrific experiment forced upon him by the God's followers who possessed the Demon King at the time. What would be the effect of this experiment of fusing the characteristics of different races on apostles and monsters? This is—
──Magic skill: Invasion and destruction.
The Twin Demon Greatswords and Dragon Wing's Demon Sword are all coated with liquid demons (Chimera), which are made by combining parts taken from Bandu and Bartram's bodies. As long as the demon swords cut a wound, the liquid demon can invade the enemy's body through the wound.
However, the apostle's body is special, and this alone won't be enough to prevent the demon from invading. However, as long as Bandu can concentrate his mind long enough to transform it into magic, there will be no problem. Bandu had originally intended to subdue his opponent with martial arts alone, but there was no other way. He shrugged helplessly.
"Listen, and destroy yourself."
At the same time, with a snap of his fingers, the chests of the two apostles exploded from their bodies in the next instant.
"Why……"
"We are absolutely..."
The apostle lost his core, the silver wings behind him disappeared without a trace, and his limbs began to disintegrate from the front.
This is how Natsu and Bandu responded to their words before they died.
"Because you don't know how to grow."
"It's probably because I don't know how to work hard."
Their answers are very human.
At that moment, a powerful impact, strong enough to shake the ground, was heard. Looking in the direction of the impact, I saw an absurdly large metal pillar erected near the south gate.
Before they knew it, the two silver lights that had previously fought against Ross had disappeared.
"...Hey, Natsu. There's a monster over there that's outnumbered two, and it defeated the apostles with just hand-to-hand combat."
Bandu said this while he was freeing himself from the dragon transformation, his tone revealing helplessness and unwillingness.
"Because, he has the blessing of sublimation magic..."
Natsu replied, his voice trembling slightly.
──Shendu Central Square.
Let’s go back a little in time.
The terrifying sight of a massive submarine crashing into the middle level of the palace was accompanied by a physical impact that shook the bodies and minds of everyone in the central square.
One after another, people lost their footing and fell to the ground. Not only was it the intense vibration, but also the fear of the otherworldly scene was also a factor in their inability to stand up.
The knights were so surprised that they couldn't help but stop in front of the enemy. Even Kime Yesu couldn't help but look back, and was so surprised that he couldn't speak.
The heads of state looked incredulous and daunted, clearly thinking, "There must be something wrong with those guys' heads."
not only.
