A look of sorrow crossed Kouki's face as he pointed his holy sword at Ryuutarou, completely engrossed in the atmosphere as he fancied himself a tragic hero.
"It's all right. God will surely resurrect you. When you wake up, everything will be as it was before... No, there will be a more correct world waiting for you."
Trust me! Trust me, surrender! Don't let me kill you!
Guanghui advocated this.
"...What nonsense did you say to him again?"
Compared to Guanghui's excitement, Ryutaro seemed very cold and looked like he had a headache.
Ling, on the other hand, had seen through Huili's tricks. She spoke to Huili and also deliberately told Guanghui about it.
"Eri, you're planning to kill us, Suzu, and then control us with Soul Binding, right? Because that would be the most convenient outcome for you two."
"No way! You're really going too far! I wouldn't do anything that outrageous!"
Despite saying so, Eri's expression told it all. Though her tone was mournful, the corners of her mouth were raised like a crescent moon, her expression no different from that of a demon.
Ling was right. Eri wanted a world just for the two of them, while Kouki's wish was to have his friends back. This was the perfect way to fulfill both of their wishes.
"Rin! How could you say something like that to Eri!? Aren't you good friends? Questioning her like that is really... No, this must be because Nagumo has brainwashed you. Wake up!"
"That's what we're talking about, Glory."
Shizuku stared at Kouki, observing him calmly.
"Even though your soul is bound, you should understand. You already knew the god's purpose and Eri's true wishes. Also, you're currently blaming Hajime for everything that's happened to you. You should also understand that."
Shizuku said this, and this was also her final ultimatum to Kouki.
It was also her statement that she would never surrender even if it meant death.
"Wake up! Stop dreaming and face reality!"
Shizuku took a deep breath and looked directly into Kouki's cloudy eyes.
Shizuku never looked away, as if she wanted to show Guanghui her attitude and never avoid the reality she didn't want to face.
Shizuku mustered up her courage to wake up this depraved childhood friend.
"Don't run away from us!"
Shizuku's roar echoed like thunder, and Kouki was slightly frightened.
Eri tutted in displeasure.
"Koki, you're so pitiful. It's obvious that Nagumo Hajime took everything from you... Shizuku and the others betrayed you, yet you tried to save them... You tried so hard."
“Eri…”
"Since they've been brainwashed by Nanyun, I think we can only let them die first. There's no other way. Kouki, I think you should just forget it. I can't bear to let you do such a heartbreaking thing!"
Eri snuggled up to Kouki and gave Shizuku and the others an evil smile.
Now she completely fancies herself the heroine who supports the righteous hero.
Shizuku and the others twitched their lips in embarrassment at the farce unfolding before their eyes. Suzu, in particular, wore a look of obvious disdain. However, the farce seemed quite convincing to Kouki.
"Eri...it's okay. I won't let you get your hands dirty alone."
Guanghui smiled and responded to Huili in this way, just as she wished.
"It seems communication alone can't resolve the issue."
"That's right. Eri used Soul Bind on Kouki again. If we don't find a way to counter this magic, no matter what we say to Kouki, the end result will be the same."
"It's okay. Ling isn't so naive as to think that everything can be solved just by talking."
The three of them showed high fighting spirit.
Everything that needed to be confirmed had been confirmed. The determination not to stop had been expressed.
Guanghui made no secret of his disappointment at the three people's reactions. He decided to harden his heart, his expression twisted with sorrow.
"...Is it still not working? Fine, I get it. If that's the case, I won't be lost any longer. I...I want...!"
At the same time, Guanghui raised the holy sword, and the galaxy appeared above the holy sword.
No, it was a vast vortex of silvery magic, the size of a galaxy. The magic continued to converge, its density and power surging, causing the atmosphere to scorch.
"I'm going to kill you! To save you!"
With that, massive, glowing wings rose from the ball of magic. Then, a thick, strong tail and sturdy, rubble-crushing limbs extended, their sharp claws leaving marks on the ground as easily as if they were pushing through mud.
Finally, the neck stretched out long and continued to rise high, at least ten meters higher than the height of a human.
The front end of the neck of light took the shape of the head of a brave beast, and two horns and a bloody mouth full of sharp teeth gradually emerged.
It was a dragon. The silver light formed into a giant dragon.
A giant dragon stood behind Guanghui, its dragon eyes looking down at Shizuku and the others, as if it didn't want them to get close to its master.
"'Divine Power, Thousand Changes, Light Dragon Form'—This dragon itself is the light of destruction."
"Divine Power" - that is the highest level of light-attribute attack magic, and also the hero's trump card.
Originally a bombardment-type magic, the Light now allows it to be activated at any time and given the ability to transform at will, transforming it into a symbol of destruction.
This is possible only when all functions are enhanced and the magic power is in an endless supply. This is the most powerful magic that the Radiance can currently use.
"Shizuku, Ryuutarou, Suzu. Let's meet again in the right world."
In response to Kouki's words, and facing the overwhelming light of destruction, Shizuku and the others responded with laughter.
They laughed, and, with their arrogance and dominance, they turned into words to refute Guanghui.
"Try it if you can, you coward."
"Hmph, let's save our sleep talk for when we fall asleep."
"You'd better be aware of this. Our resolve is very heavy."
The roar resounded all around, like the roar of a newly born light dragon.
The shockwave and eardrum-shattering explosion forced Shizuku and the others to crouch low. Their brows furrowed as they kept an eye on the Light Dragon, sensing a light gathering in front of its mouth.
"Shizuku-chan! Ryuutarou-kun!"
Ling called out, and the two simply nodded without saying a word. They understood each other perfectly, knowing Ling wasn't simply asking them to "come closer and enter the defense range." Then, a flash of orange protective light erupted.
“—『Holy Shot: Dispersion』!!”
A hemispherical barrier appeared, magical light swirling across its surface at high speed. This was a special barrier capable of weakening and deflecting attacks.
The next moment, a silvery light filled the horizon. This incoming "Roar of the Light Dragon" was several times more powerful than the "Divine Might" previously unleashed by the Radiant One. Its power was transferred to the surroundings, blasting everything to ash.
However, the force was too strong, and the barrier could not be completely transferred. It soon began to make cracking sounds and cracks appeared on the surface.
“Mmmmm…!”
Ling clenched her teeth and groaned in agony.
A normal attack of "God's Might" would only last a few seconds, but this wave of attacks showed no signs of weakening.
This would be unbearable... Ling made this judgment unwillingly. As if to add insult to injury, Eri said mockingly:
"Struggling like this is too ugly, Suzu—[Illusion Punishment]!"
Even though the sound of bombing kept shaking my eardrums, Huili's voice was extremely clear, so clear that it was unnatural.
Suddenly, Ling felt an indescribable pain all over her body. It felt like countless sharp needles piercing her body, a sharp and delicate pain.
"Ugh..." Ling uttered a groaning sound like a twitch. The control of magic was disturbed, and the maintenance of the barrier was also affected...
However, Ling's resolve was unwavering, and she refused to let the "Light Dragon's Roar" break through. The surrounding barrier could no longer be maintained, but the barrier above it held fast at all costs. Furthermore, the destruction of other parts of the barrier only allowed Ling to focus all her energy on the area directly hit by the roar, making her defense even more secure.
However, this development was also within Huili's expectations.
"Ahaha, I've successfully broken the barrier! Die!"
Huili extended a hand and fired a disintegration blast.
At the same time, a large number of Gray Corpses rushed forward from all directions except above their heads, waving their knight swords, broadswords, guns, hammers, daggers and other weapons aggressively.
Furthermore, these Gray Corpse disciples seemed to be carefully divided into vanguard and rearguard. The Gray Corpse disciples in the distance were gathering their magic power. In a few seconds, a large number of disintegration bombardments would be launched from all directions.
A deadly saturation offensive is about to engulf Shizuku and others.
At this moment, Guanghui and Huili heard an unnaturally clear sound.
Amidst the loud bangs, the three of them shouted.
—Come, black blade with will. 『Black Demon Sword: Hundred Blades』!
—Come on, hunters of the abyss! 『Demon Transformation: Wolf King』!!
——Come, my loyal servants. [Summon: Abyssal Swarm]!
The next moment──
"What's wrong!?"
Countless black objects tore through the silver flash and swept towards the light.
Guanghui never expected to be counterattacked while the attack was ongoing. He was unable to react in time and had no time to switch "God's Might" to defense.
So, he decided to dodge and strike down the target with his holy sword, attempting to use his superhuman reflexes to physically counterattack. However, after hearing the sound of metal clashing several times, he could no longer cope.
“Ugh!?”
The glorious arm bounced up, blood splattering. He felt his grip suddenly lose its grip, perhaps a tendon severed. The holy sword was also deflected, spinning in the air.
The light dragon stopped breathing, but Guanghui had no time to care and could only leap aside with all his might. Then he recalled the holy sword and used the light dragon's tail to surround the surrounding area.
The dragon's tail formed a defensive barrier with offensive effects, but in the blink of an eye, a large number of black objects were pierced into it - a closer look revealed that they were black knives.
Although the black knife did not penetrate the dragon's tail, the tip of the knife stopped in front of Guanghui's eyes, making him feel as if he was surrounded by a formation of guns.
If it wasn't divine power that was used to block it, but a normal barrier, it would probably be...
Thinking of this, cold sweat broke out on Guanghui's forehead, and he truly felt the feeling of being scared.
As if to shake off the fear in her heart, Guanghui controlled the dragon's tail of light and flung away a total of ten black swords.
Despite being exposed to the strongest destructive light, the black blades still maintained their original form, with only some surface damage at best. This greatly surprised Guanghui. However, the real surprise was yet to come.
“This… can actually fly!?”
Multiple black swords flew in the air, neatly arranged and surrounding him.
Kouki knew who was manipulating the swords. He knew it all too well. Seeking an answer, he turned his gaze towards Shizuku and asked. His voice broke in panic.
"What's this……!?"
What he saw was the black knife, blocking the knight's sword of the gray corpse.
What he saw was a black knife chopping off the tip of the Gray Corpse's spear.
What he saw was the black knife deflecting the gray corpse's hammer and spear attacks.
Countless black swords floated in the air, forming a circle with Shizuku and Ling as the center, blocking all the approaching attacks of the Gray Corpses.
Including the few that Guanghui just threw away, there are exactly one hundred.
It was like a barrier formed by black swords.
"Cut it off—"Full Blade: Flashing Light"!!"
At the command of the master of the barrier, all the black swords attacked simultaneously.
All the black knives slid smoothly, each delivering the most appropriate strike at its target.
Magnificent—that's the only way to describe the scene.
Such a slash, just like Shizuku's own fighting principle, cannot be achieved by remote control alone.
──Shizuku's new divine weapon, the Black Demon Sword: Hundred Blades.
These one hundred new black swords work on the same principle as living bullets, each consisting of living golems shaped like a sword. Not only do they interfere with gravity, they can also fly freely.
These blades possess a higher level of consciousness than bullets, and their consciousnesses are connected to each other through Shizuku's own transformation magic, allowing them to coordinate with each other. Furthermore, through transformation magic, these black blades themselves are equivalent to beginner swordsmen who have learned the Yaegashi style of swordsmanship in a short period of time, and their strength has been certified by Master Shizuku.
Furthermore, all black swords can activate the difficult-to-defend skill "Space Severance".
This is also the reason why Guanghui was unable to completely resist the attack and his arm was cut off.
These black knives are all enveloped in a glazed aura and can move on their own. The sharpness of the blades is beyond common sense's comprehension.
