Chapter 367: Fly-Colored Wicked Sword
The battle situation on the left flank drastically changed with the arrival of Sogou Ayaka.
To be honest, the change brought by her presence was greater than I had expected.
Thinking back, I suppose I hadn't properly witnessed any of Sogou's "wars".
I had only witnessed that little one-on-one battle she had with Seras after the battle with Kirihara.
Of course, I know what Sogou can do with her skills but
[Ayaka-dono seems to be moving from the left wing to the center!]
A messenger arrives with a report.
In other words
"Sogou Ayaka is almost done with what she should do on the left wing now."
I suppose I can look at it this way.
According to the report, the Sacrament army on the left wing has collapsed considerably.
Part of it was certainly because their numbers were reduced, but it was also because most of their chain of command had been destroyed.
Sogou had faithfully carried out my instructions.
[Amazing As expected of the highest rank Hero.]
Loqierra also expressed her admiration.
The highest rank- S-Rank.
Come to think of it
All three of the S-Ranks have abilities that are appropriate for Heroes of the highest rank.
The All-Rounder Takao Hijiri may be a little inferior to the other two in terms of pure combat ability.
On the other hand though, her practicability range is much wider than the other two.The origin of this chapter's debut can be traced to n(0)vel(b)(j)(n).
As for Kirihara Takuto
The place he arrived at can indeed be classified as the topmost.
High-mass offensive energy attacks that he can freely manipulate.
In addition, he can even use it to accelerate his own movement.
He can also produce small golden wave dragons, which is equivalent to an autonomous defense that protects him from his surroundings.
There's also that ability he's become most notorious for His ability to subjugate golden-eyed monsters.
It's an ability that makes it possible to bring even those Human-Faceds under his control.
With that power, Kirihara Takuto had amassed an army of golden-eyed monsters.
For example, if
If the user had been different
A completely different battle might have unfolded in this world.
And then, there's Sogou Ayaka.
Compared to the other two, Sogou is a complete combat specialist.
To begin with, before being an S-Rank, her own fighting qualities were extraordinary.
I don't quite understand the principle behind it, but she also possesses a technique called "Limit Release".
Apparently, it's a technique that she has known back in our original world, an ability unrelated to this world.
She studied ancient martial arts from her grandmother, or so I heard?
An ability only Sogou Ayaka has huh.
Something really is different about her right from the start.
In fact, she has been influencing the war situation greatly all by herself.
Just as she did when she fought against Mira.
This goes without saying with her one-on-one combat ability
However, even when we fight on the same battlefield, there's something frightening about her.
In other words-
She's someone who had deviated from it.
The norm.
[..]
It seems that the giant Sacraments on the left flank were defeated by Sogou one after another.
The people who acted as the commanders were also captured one after another and sent to the rear as prisoners of war.
Her deployed silver army gradually chipped away the domain of the Sacraments.
That's something that is still ongoing at the moment.
With such results, her current MP reserves are still good-
In that case, she wouldn't have any openings.
I had imagined this happening from the rumors
However
[I never expected things would go this far.]
[Touka-dono, we're always ready to go.]
Seras' voice.
I looked over my shoulder.
Behind Seras are the Holy Knights of Neia, who are preparing to go into battle.
Riding on Slei, I turned her towards the right wing.
Seeing the results of Sogou's battle I decided it was time for me to move too.
I'll leave Loqierra here for the time being.
There's no need for me to bring her with me for this battle.
Going to the Mad Emperor
[I'll leave the rest to you, Your Majesty.]
[Yeah, feel free to go.]
The overall command was originally the Mad Emperor's role.
We're originally supposed to be a guerilla unit.
Putting my hand on my Fly Mask, I lightly arranged its position
[Let's go.]
We ran towards the right wing's front line.
As expected, when compared to the other horses, Slei was the fastest.
I kinda ended up leaving Seras and the others behind.
However, that was already taken care of.
I told them in advance to catch up with us later.
According to the report, the arrival of the giant Sacraments is delayed only on the right flank.
That was one of the reasons why I sent Sogou to the left wing first.
However The giant Sacraments were finally reaching the right wing as well.
After jumping into the melee battles on the frontline
[So it's you, Fly King.]
Calling out to me was the Cerberus, Roa.
[Good job out here, you and your monster squad are fighting hard.]
[We're doing our best.]
With a roar, Roa breathed fire on Sacrament that jumped at her, burning it to death.
The flames were unleashed from the right head.
[However We will have a hard time dealing with those.]
In the direction Roa was looking at- were the giant Sacraments.
Patting Roa on her flank
[I'll take care of them.]
I made Slei run again.
The Sacraments in front of us were blown away by Slei.
Keeping my awareness to the maximum limit, I scattered my Abnormal State Skill on the Sacraments in our path.
This would also serve as a beacon for Seras and the others to follow.
Other than that- I also had a longsword in my hand.
A weapon that Pigimaru had taken form into.
Let's call it a Slime Weapon.
It was a trick made possible by Pigimaru's third enhancement.
As I ran through, I slashed down on the nearby Sacraments and cut off their heads.
[Even so, Pigimaru.]
[Pigi?]
[This sword didn't need to be colored like this, right?]
[Punii! Punini!]
"But, but! It's cooler this way!"
or so he said.
Smiling at his words, I snorted.
[Now that you put it that way, well- I suppose so.]
A double-edged longsword.
The blade is black, while the fuller part is deep crimson.
The tip is also slightly curved, like a scimitar.
Also, one side of the blade formed spikes, as if to form a line of sharp mountains.
Well, one could say it's a jagged sword.
However, its edge isn't as finely jagged as a saw.
I suppose you could call it a swordbreaker with an aggressive appearance.
Whatever the case, it certainly has a brutal form.
As for how it turned this way I can only blame Pigimaru's sense of style.
Pigimaru had previously browsed through a book that depicted several weapons.
On top of that.
"I made it into a shape that I thought suited your outfit!"
Well, let's just leave that part to Pigimaru.
That said, it does seem perfect for this Final Fly King outfit.
I lightly swing the blade.
These flowing white life forces, with a swing, I reap them away.
The intensity is enough.
The sharpness is also sufficient.
Perhaps, the status compensation helps out in this case, but the weight is surprisingly light compared to the sharpness of the blade.
It seems like I'm finally being able to make use of the way to handle a sword that Seras and Eve taught me.
The blood of the Sacraments on the blade disappears with a whirring sound.
I look up.
A shadow.
From above, it envelops me like a shroud.
Somehow It's like I'm suddenly in the shade.
A giant, its back bathed in sunlight, is visible at the end of my gaze.
Alright.
I held out my hand diagonally upward, pointing it toward the giant.
[-< Paralyze >-]
The giant Sacrament who was about to drop the huge sword it had raised overhead
Just before it swings it down, it freezes in that posture.
As I passed through it, I also fired a <Berserk> at it.
Thereupon the giant Sacrament bursts open.
The falling sword also crushed some Sacraments nearby.
Disregarding them, Slei kicked away the Sacraments in front of her and ran forward.
Preparing my blade at an angle downwards, I set my sights on another giant Sacrament.
I also killed the Sacraments on my path.
[Next.]
I focused on the giant Sacrament and killed it.
Before long, Seras and others also caught up and joined the battle.
[Elda's squad, cover that surrounded side over there! My team will continue to follow Touka-dono's lead and cover him! Dorothy, I can leave distributing the rest of our squad to you, right!?]
Seras raises her sword and sends out instructions.
The large-built female Holy Knight called Elda smiles.
[Fufu While we Neia's Holy Knights have become accustomed to the leadership of Commander Machia-sama, being under Seras-sama's lead really just have a different feeling to it.]
Her name is Esmeralda.
The name Elda is apparently a nickname.
From what I heard, she's also one of the veteran members of the Holy Knights and has a long history with Seras.
Thereupon, the female Holy Knight named Dorothy responded.
[Right, it feels nostalgic.]
She's also one of the old core members.
It seems she also has a long connection with Seras just like Elda.
I did hear she's quite the trickster though.
The movements of the Holy Knights are swift and orderly.
She has commanded those in the Faraway Country in the past.
However, the movements of these people were clearly different upon receiving their command.
There's never been a moment of hesitation in their steps within this battlefield.
Taking aim at the human commanders when possible, they then handle them smoothly.
They're calm- and have a broad view of the battlefield.
If there's a group of allies in a disadvantageous position, they accurately deploy forces there as well.
They weren't lacking in military strength either.
At least, on this battlefield the word "lacking" doesn't seem fitting for them.
[Touka-dono!]
Seras raised her voice when she saw me.
[Please concentrate on the large ones without worrying about the others! We will take care of all the tough-looking medium-sized Sacraments!]
Seras, clad in her Spirit Regalia, said as she quickly finished off a medium-sized Sacrament.
[Please feel free to move as you please! We'll find you and catch up!]
While scattering my Abnormal State Skills, I responded with a wave of my hand.
Seras effortlessly dealt with the tough-looking Sacraments.
That is, while she hasn't used her Origin Regalia yet.
It seems like her Spirit Regalia is already enough.
The way Seras battles on this battlefield though
Yes, it's as if she could see a little into the future.
She had such certain confidence in her.
As to be expected of the only force on our side capable of facing Sogou Ayaka head-on in a one-on-one battle.
Good grief She's truly reassuring.
I have Slei run to our next target.
I unleash my Abnormal State Skills.
I swing my fly-colored wicked sword.
I reap the lives of the servants of the Goddess.
"Touka-dono"
On this battlefield I advanced.
I have instructed Seras to call me by that name.
For a little while now, I haven't concealed my name when facing the Mad Emperor and the others.
Sh*tty Goddess.
If by chance, you have the means to acquire information from this battlefield.
Then, that's fine.
"The Fly King is Touka Mimori."
So be it.
What's the point of hiding this now?
This is information that she should have known already.
However, this information can also be an insurance policy a preparatory play.
The same goes for this conspicuous Final Fly King outfit.
It's also for this reason I'm unleashing my skills like this.
We have already given instructions to "overlook" some of the humans they met to the commanders.
If possible, I hope they will bring back information about me.
As I said, these are all preparatory plays for the future.
Whether these actions will be useful or not remains to be seen.
Still, I'm going to sow the seeds that can be sown.
I could never know when or where they would sprout.
..
This isn't just about this battlefield where I am now.
Yes, that's right.
Vysis.
With precautionary measures in hand
The information war has already begun.
Just like that, the waves of enemies continued to pour in almost constantly, for about 3 days.
