Chapter 14: The Gorgon

"You're not dead?"

There was a trace of natural doubt in Perseus's voice, as if Medusa should have died under the snake-hunting sickle, and it was unreasonable to be seriously injured at this time.

However, this is also true.

Associated with mythology is never lacking in mysteries, such as the power of the oath that is so secret in Celtic mythology.

Warriors swore to keep certain oaths in order to gain great power, but they were like a curse, and one day they died under the oath, like Cuchulainn, the son of light, and Dilumudo, the face of radiance.

Perseus's Serpent Scythe contains similar powers, and for other enemies, it is only a weapon that can kill the undead, but because it once cut off Medusa's head in the mythological era, it has the magic of killing Medusa with one hit.

Almost irreversible karmic magic!

"Ahem~~~"

Medusa spat out a mouthful of blood mixed with the fragments of internal organs, and the wound on her back seemed to heal, but in fact it was only a temporary immobilization of internal organs, bones, and muscles with magical power, and the divine power of the snake scythe was still frantically destroying her body.

"I see!"

Suddenly, Perseus's eyes lit up, as if he had gained something, "Now you are in the form of a goddess, not the gorgon Medusa killed by the snake-hunting scythe, so although you are the same person, you have avoided the power of killing with one blow because of the essential difference between the goddess and the monster." ”

Once Medusa, she was a beautiful and charismatic goddess, but later, because of certain factors that were drowned in history. She was persecuted by Poseidon, the god of the sea, and cursed by Athena, the goddess of war and wisdom. Become a member of the monster Gorgon, and finally under the guidance of Athena. Slain by Perseus.

And the heroic spirit Medusa summoned by White Maple Valley is in the form of a former goddess, not the form of a gorgon, so the snake-hunting scythe, which has the power to kill the gorgons with one blow, unexpectedly missed.

"But even if you weren't killed by the snake scythe, Medusa, you now. Can you still block my next blow? ”

Perseus said this, walking step by step with the snake-hunting scythe in hand, but the mirror spirit Erinis was not in his eyes at all. An instrument spirit who is good at magic spells is no threat to Perseus, the son of a god with extremely high magical powers.

Medusa's eyes darkened under the blindfold, and the Serpent's Scythe, though it didn't kill her, destroyed the only remaining divinity in her.

At this time, Medusa was already occupied by the demonic nature from the Gorgon, and was once forced to be insulted by Poseidon. The dark memories of being despised and betrayed by Athena, and even cursed and murdered, made her have a splitting headache, and she was about to fall into the abyss of madness.

Hold a snake-hunting scythe. Perseus, who strode in, was the last straw that pushed her off the cliff.

"Ahh~~~~~~!!!!!!h Why are you pushing me?! Why kill me?! What am I doing wrong?! Is it because I'm your creature?! ”

In a hoarse accusatory, Medusa stood abruptly. This ordinary movement caused her back to crack, and blood gushed out mixed with minced flesh and internal organs. Stained the ground beneath his feet red.

Medusa seemed unconscious, with a sharp and evil laugh. The blindfolded "Demon Eye Kill" blindfold shattered, as if it was burned by an invisible flame and turned into ashes, and behind it was a pair of deep eyes that were once ignorant and gentle, but now they were full of darkness and blood.

"Perhaps, it's just because I'm too weak, if I have absolute strength, I'm the real essence, they ...... Seal of the Other, Temple of Blood! ”

Medusa muttered in a low voice, and with the activation of the Noble Phantasm "Seal of the Other, Blood Temple", all the life in the entire building, except for Perseus and the mirror spirit Erinis, turned into a blood mist and merged into Medusa's body.

The scarlet blood mist turned into a cocoon and enveloped Medusa, and Perseus felt the fierce and cruel yet familiar evil aura contained in it, and gave up the useless attack.

"Who would have thought that the snake-hunting scythe would actually stimulate the demonic nature in you? But even if you're a medusa, you're just adding another legend to the snake scythe. ”

Without the long struggle of the butterfly to break out of the cocoon, it was only a few breaths, and Medusa had already broken out of the cocoon, her injuries were restored as before, and her posture was like a monster.

On the delicate face, there is a circle of dark gold patterns around the gently closed eyes, mysterious and magnificent, and the upper body is bare* with large* pieces of smooth and smooth skin, and only the chest is half-covered with two shiny round pieces of armor.

If you only look at these, the mythical and legendary Medusa is a peerless beauty who has a different style from the heroic spirit Medusa, full of seduction.

However, when most people saw the golden snake hair that was twisted and writhing on the top of Medusa's head with cold eyes open and hissing snake letters, and the snake tail that was as thick as a human body and covered with fine golden scales and two meters long below her waist, I am afraid that all they could think about in their hearts would be infinite fear.

Even though she was transformed into a medusa, even though she was engulfed by demonic nature, Medusa still had a trace of consciousness, and she still remembered that she had been petrified by the reflection of the bronze mirror shield, so she did not open the eyes of the legendary petrified everything, but swept her long tail and strangled towards Perseus, who was close at hand.

In the face of such a monster, Perseus did not have the slightest shock and fear in his eyes, and in the face of Medusa's attack, he made preparations to take out the bronze mirror shield at any time to reflect the petrified gaze, and then held the snake scythe in his hand, jumped lightly, and soared into the air.

In the midst of the lightning, Elenice, who had been ignored by Medusa and Perseus, finally showed the usefulness of the White Maple Valley to let her here, only to see a quaint animal skin scroll thrown out of the mirror, just in the way of Perseus.

"Shapeshifting Spell!"

Seeing this, a flash of light flashed in Perseus's eyes, but he did not hesitate to stop, the first blow was to go all out, and the snake-hunting scythe slashed down in the air, and the karmic magic of the Gorgon's one-hit killing, this time it will definitely not fail.

The snake hissed and spat letters, but it couldn't even touch the body of the snake-hunting scythe, and was cut to pieces by the invisible divine power, and seeing that Medusa was about to die again at the hands of Perseus in the next moment.

"Medusa, sleep forever!"

"Eternal sleep? No! No one can hurt her in front of me! This is my vow to her! ”

The voice resounded in the empty underground parking lot, and then Perseus felt as if the snake scythe had slashed at the divine iron, and could no longer fall a single penny. (To be continued.) )
