Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! The endless sky erupted.

Under Hatsune Miku's gaze, black flames exceeding the speed of sound shot out at high speed toward her.

'...Right now, my status is Snow Future 2018'

The white-haired, twin-tailed shrine maiden raised the gohei in her hand.

"drink--!!"

A pure white, snow-like glow covered the surroundings.

Within a radius of 500 meters, everything within this area became as if frozen, covered in a layer of white light.

Even the flames, which were over a thousand degrees Celsius, were extinguished.

"...Wow, monkeys really know a lot of magic tricks."

Azriel's expression gradually became indifferent.

However, it was still done with a smile on his face.

Therefore.

"A monkey that can change its appearance is perfect for being thrown into a circus!"

Hatsune Miku stared intently at Azriel ahead, but—the shadow vanished.

"?!"

The girl blinked sharply and instinctively flinched.

Click—the air was cut open.

It was a purplish-black blade that cleaved across space itself.

"...Tsk."

Azriel hovered behind him, pursing her lips.

"Shouldn't this monkey's hiding and dodging behavior stop?"

His tone was noticeably lower and more subdued than before.

Under that tone, Azriel's eyes widened, and a certain power exploded instantly around her.

"call…!"

Hatsune Miku unfolds her defensive techniques while simultaneously reshaping herself using the most ferocious of the four elements: fire.

The power has coalesced.

Ahead, a colossal body over a hundred meters tall instantly materialized.

"Roar! Ro ...

A giant fire dragon appeared in front of Hatsune Miku.

The dragon roared, and the priestess flew directly onto its back, gripping the dragon's scales tightly.

"Eh~ This guy looks a lot like a dragon spirit, meow."

Even when facing such a massive monster, Azriel's tone showed no sign of backing down.

"Although it looks scary, it's just something made by monkeys, so it's not convincing at all~☆?"

At that moment, Azriel's body disappeared into space once again.

Even though Hatsune Miku controlled the dragon and spewed out flames at a temperature of 10,000 degrees Celsius, she still couldn't harm the girl.

"Spatial teleportation...?"

It was precisely because she had witnessed this ability that Hatsune Miku was able to recognize it.

She looked around again, remaining vigilant for the enemy's movements.

"It's down there~"

The sound did not come from behind or nearby.

Instead, from below the dragon.

——Bang! ! !

In an instant, the dragon's body was pierced through.

“Wu——?!”

"It's not enough, it's really not enough. Although it looks like a dragon, it's far from being as strong as a dragon spirit."

After shattering the dragon summoned by energy with a single blow, Azriel's body emerged from beneath it.

She still maintained a happy smile.

"Hehehe meow~☆, what should we do? Should we just get rid of the monkey like this? Or should we capture it alive like we thought before? Ah~! No matter which one we do, it's such an interesting toy, my sisters will definitely fight over it, right?"

"...!"

Hatsune Miku didn't really use her full strength.

In Snow Future 2018, all of her spells require incantation to unleash their maximum power.

Having confirmed the girl's strength, if it were a dragon like the one from before, its power would completely surpass hers after chanting for about a minute.

But it's clear that the other party won't give him that chance.

and.

The next instant, Azriel's body disappeared into the air once again.

"Insert a flaw, meow~?"

Bang! A strange sound, like shattering glass, came from behind Hatsune Miku.

It was space that was crushed by Azriel.

Without hesitation, she gathered her spiritual power into the jade pendant in her right hand. This time, the force of the direct impact was enough to completely blast open the mountainside.

If it's this kind of enemy, then there's no need to show mercy.

"Haaaaaahh ...

The priestess's sharp cry rang out, and a powerful swing landed directly in the space behind her.

Its pure white radiance is as pristine as snow.

But the girl stood there, stunned.

No matter how dazzling the light may be, it will never feel real.

"It's all for naught—?!"

"What a pity, meow~?"

What?! Whoa!

Hatsune Miku had barely turned around when she felt her breath catch in her throat.

The girl's delicate neck was mercilessly grabbed.

She grasped the other person's hand tremblingly, but couldn't pry it open at all.

"Ah...woo...!!"

"Hehehe meow~ Got it, got it! Although it's a bug and a bit disgusting, I'll take it back to show my sisters. I bet they'll fight over it like a toy in all sorts of silly squabbles, meow?"

Azriel chuckled as if drooling, holding Hatsune Miku's neck with one hand.

The white-haired priestess gasped for breath in pain, but gradually felt her strength waning.

'Spatial...ability...is indeed difficult...to deal with...!'

"Oh? You wouldn't actually be thinking of breaking free from my grasp now, would you?"

I noticed Hatsune Miku struggling in my hands again.

Azriel raised the corners of her mouth, laughing as if she were mocking heaven and earth, and even the world itself.

"You little bug, you think you can escape my grasp? Meow! So cute, are you trying to make me laugh to death? You're such a brainless, low-IQ creature!"

"Ugh—Aaaaaaaah!!!"

The pressure on my neck is getting heavier and heavier.

It felt as if even her bones were about to be crushed; Hatsune Miku's trembling little hands completely lost their strength.

Even the field of vision darkened, and the shrine maiden's eyes, those bright azure eyes.

They became completely lifeless.

"Oh dear... Meow? This is bad! I went to great lengths to make sure the bug could be brought back safely, meow~"

Azriel laughed with ecstasy, yet showed no sign of lessening the force in her hands.

"Ugh, this is such a hassle, meow~ But bugs are just too annoying. Hmm, I guess I should just kill them, meow."

"..."

"But it's so~~~~it's such a dilemma☆! It would be nice to take it back and use it as a toy with my sisters, but...the bugs are still disgusting, waaaaaah, what should I do? I'm so conflicted, waaaaah?"

Azriel was struggling with this difficult question: should she bring this novel insect back with her?

Bringing it back would indeed allow me to enjoy the new toy with my sisters, but—playing with bugs and maggots is still a bit disgusting, meow.

Hmm... how about tearing me apart with five horses, meow☆?

She squinted her eyes, trying to think of as many cute ideas as possible.

—Bang!!!!

The punch that shook the entire planet landed squarely on her face.

—Huh?!

Azriel's eyes widened. What just happened?

She immediately manipulated space, but—the hand that attacked her pressed directly against her face.

The Skywing race is a very special race. Almost all of them are beautiful girls and can manipulate time and space at will.

—Azriel tried to manipulate space and time to leave or stop the other person, but found that nothing worked.

Not to mention responding to her, space and time—were trembling.

They dared not help Azriel.

Because space and time, having helped her here, would then affect all time and space within this world—

They'll all get slaughtered along with them.

Bang! ! !

When she came to her senses, Azriel's body had been embedded into the Earth's core like a missile.

— More than 6,370 kilometers.

Then, at that distance, Azriel's body was instantly ejected from the depths of the Earth's core to the upper surface.

"Pewter--?!!"

Blood didn't spurt from her mouth, but—the shadow had already reached directly above her head.

Azriel saw nothing and couldn't react to anything.

It was smashed back to the ground with just one blow.

"Damn it...!! Pfft—?!"

Before she could finish her sentence, she was punched back at her.

Thump!! Then, the white sole of the shoe stepped on his face, pressing down with the force that shook the entire earth more than 58 million times.

boom------

The planet collapsed.

However, the other party did not die.

"Who...is it?!"
