Chapter 19: Sneak Attack
No avatar can be used against Perseus.
For example, the pitch-black [Wild Boar] summoned by Kusanagi Godo.
It was a terrifying summoning technique, and it only took him tens of seconds to gather a high-level magician to carry out a hundred days of continuous summoning rituals, and he only took tens of seconds.
This is the power of the Demon King Campione.
However, Perseus used the divine power of the mystery to seal the divine beast.
Then, shoot Kusanagi Godo.
- It's her own fault, Liliana Clanichar, who had been watching from beginning to end, stared blankly at the remains of Campione lying on the ground, blaming herself.
If you cast the Professor's spell on him at that time——!
If you can use the [Sword] Spirit that can suppress the power of the Marquis of Warban, the situation of the battle will definitely be reversed.
Because of his indecision, he died, and moreover, he was one of the demon kings who saved the world and brought chaos to the human trump card of the gods.
Magicians revere Campione as "king" for a reason.
Because they are terrible demon kings, this is the most important reason.
However, there is another point, that they are the only saviors in the knowledge that humanity endures the calamities and sufferings brought about by the disobedient gods.
This is true even for Naraku.
It was supposed to be like this, but he didn't save him from death——!
“…… Well, there's a strange feeling of uneasiness. ”
As if it were none of his business with Liliana's chagrin, Perseus looked puzzled.
"It's true that I defeated this young god killer, but why can't I be happy, I'm going to lose my temper if I go on like this—I feel like I have a bad premonition waiting, why?"
Muttering quietly, he slowly walked towards the corpse of Kusanagi Godo who had fallen to the ground.
Want to humiliate his bones? Would such a hero do such a shameless thing - maybe he would do so, and the heroic myth of reproducing the ancient custom of beheading has unexpectedly appeared in many places.
At the very least, they also want to protect the remains of the king.
Liliana, who made up her mind, set up ILMaestro, but Perseus didn't care about her tragic decision, and went straight to the protector.
- And then, coldly, Perseus was knocked away like rags.
Liliana saw it.
Under the lights that illuminated the streets of Santa Lucia, a young man appeared where Perseus had been standing before, brandishing the halberd in his hand.
This young man was Naraku, who had just been separated, and he used the two-meter-long Oriental Heavenly Painting Halberd in his hand to smash it heavily into Percius's side ribs, knocking it away.
At the same time, behind the boy, the figure of a girl appeared in the dark, she held a large scythe with a pitch-black blade in her hand, this dark figure was Athena, it is estimated that if Naraku didn't make a move just now, it would be her who made a move.
But Perseus's reaction was perfect.
Even if an attack comes from behind, you can immediately block it with your weapon and retreat in the direction of the halberd's attack to relieve your strength and minimize your injuries.
But it is inevitable that he will be seriously injured, just look at the hero who jumped up while covering his side ribs, his beauty is distorted because of pain, look at that way, at least a few ribs are broken.
"In any case, as a Rakshasa King, such behavior is too despicable!"
"Ah, this is not just my idea, moreover, this guy is my prey, but the strength is not enough now, so I want to train this guy, and give him experience by fighting you, not to kill him, so it's not strange to think that I will shoot when he is in crisis, it's your fault that you didn't understand what I meant, and you slackened when you killed the demon king." Even if it's a strong word, Naraku is right.
"Make no mistake, that guy is the prey of a concubine, and he won't let it ...... you," Athena retorted to Naraku's words.
On the other hand, at Naraku's words, Perseus nodded heavily.
"I see, that's right, and since you're making a move now, it means that this boy hasn't been defeated yet...... What the hell is going on? ”
"It's up to you to figure it out." Naraku waved his hand, put the halberd on his shoulder, and said, "However, can you step down next, can't you just let you kill him." ”
"I can't listen to your request."
The next moment these words fell, a terrifying majestic force surged out of Naraku's seemingly thin body.
"With me and the goddess as opponents, do you think you can win with your current body? Now the goddess with the same purpose as me, I don't think I would mind giving you a blow to this enemy at the critical moment of our battle! It's possible on my side, but it's much more than yours. ”
"Well, indeed, for the sake of both of us, why don't we just make a temporary truce?"
"Well, it's okay, so be it until your injuries heal."
"I'm scared, then, when this god killer recovers, let's see you on the battlefield again."
Hearing Perseus's words, Athena frowned.
"Are you still going to fight this guy?"
"Can't you? There are very few opportunities to fight the Godslayer and the Serpent Queen at the same time, and although I am a little cheeky, I don't plan to let go of the good opportunity in front of me. In response to Athena's reproachful eyes, he smiled unceremoniously in response.
"Hmph." With a reluctant face, Athena nodded slightly.
"I don't have an opinion on my side, I only shot once, and it's up to him whether he dies or lives next, and if he loses, then I can take over."
- What's going on? Liliana was confused.
Athena holding the scythe of darkness, Perseus holding the unparalleled sword, Naraku carrying the halberd of Fang Tian, and now that Kusanagi Godo is dead, I thought that the two gods who stared at each other and the demon king left over from the previous generation were going to start a decisive battle, but who knew that something unexpected had begun.
Does it mean that this young king is not dead?
And why didn't Athena plan to fight right away? Since he was seriously injured while Perseus wasn't looking, he should have continued to fight like this, right?
"The day of the rematch will be followed by the decision to make—then, goodbye!"
Stepping onto his beloved horse, who had been called by his finger flute, Perseus said goodbye in a heroic manner, knowing that the broken bone could not heal so quickly, but he no longer felt pain.
Pegasus galloped towards the night sea—no, it flew away.
"-Then, girl, it's up to you to take care of Kusanagi, he should wake up on his own soon. Ah, tell him afterwards to prepare for Perseus' second visit...... The only thing that can defeat you is the concubine body, and if you fail and die before that, the concubine body will never admit it! ”
After leaving these words, Athena just left.
"Then, it's almost time for me to leave, and according to the practice of the two seniors in front of me, I'll leave a few words." Naraku put away her halberd and coughed twice, "Remember, not every time someone will come to save you, if you fail again, I will burn you to ashes without mercy, that's all." ”
After leaving these few words, Naraku teleported to leave the battlefield that had become a thing of the past.
The suffering of Kusanagi and Liliana Clanichar, who lay on the ground as if they were dead, is not over yet.
