She simply did not use the power of Demon Sword Creation. Before the Demon Emperor Sword, any demon swords she created would be unable to withstand its slashes. She might as well use the chainsaw, which would not be damaged.
Her eyes flashed once more as the power of her Evil Eye interfered with Siegfried. Yet even after successfully disrupting him, he still blocked her attack.
Clearly, against a powerful enemy, an Evil Eye of this level could not have much effect.
"That power again. But the same trick will have no effect on me!"
Feeling the power of the Evil Eye, Siegfried became even more frenzied. He had developed an ordinary Dragon's Hand Sacred Gear to an unprecedented level.
His strength had increased by who knew how many times!
"Again! Hahahahaha!!"
Siegfried was growing fiercer and fiercer, but Miss Moonlit was no weaker. Her eyes became even more crimson as she entered a berserk state as well.
The two fought head-on in the most brutally violent manner, annihilating the surrounding sand and seawater!
"This kind of strength! She clearly never brought out her true power when she fought me before."
Jeanne, the only spectator nearby, watched the brutal aesthetic of the two berserkers before her, her eyes filled with shock!!
In her battle with Siegfried, Miss Moonlit had not used Demon Sword Creation at all, relying instead on other powers and Sacred Gears. If she had used those powers during their earlier fight, Jeanne would probably have lost long ago, right?
Her defeat at the hands of this moonlit beauty was not undeserved in the slightest.
"You! Just how many Sacred Gears do you have?!"
Siegfried endured Moonlit's slash, disbelief appearing in his eyes.
Since Miss Moonlit had entered a berserk state, her fighting style had become entirely offense and slaughter, with no defense at all. Even so, Siegfried, who excelled in brutal combat and whose power had been multiplied several times by his Sacred Gear, was being suppressed by her!
But such a fighting style undoubtedly made it easy to get hurt.
During their battle, Moonlit was wounded several times by the Demon Emperor Sword. Yet those injuries completely healed in the blink of an eye. Clearly, this was another powerful Sacred Gear.
Logically speaking, a person could possess only one Sacred Gear. Yet aside from Demon Sword Creation at the beginning and the time-stopping Sacred Gear from before, Moonlit now had another healing-type Sacred Gear.
She already had three Sacred Gears in total!
Was that reasonable?
It was not reasonable!
No wonder Moonlit fought like this. With such a powerful healing Sacred Gear, she did not care about being injured at all. She only needed to pursue extreme violence and slaughter!
"Hahahahaha..."
Wild laughter constantly spilled from berserk Moonlit's mouth, making even Siegfried feel fear for a moment. Had it really been right for him to fight her?
"Human, are you afraid? Give me the Demon Emperor Sword, and I can consider sparing you." Noticing the change in Siegfried, Moonlit attacked as she spoke.
"Hmph!"
"I don't believe you can keep healing forever. Besides, as long as I kill you... let's see how you regenerate."
Hearing Moonlit's words, Siegfried's expression darkened. Hand over his Demon Emperor Sword? In her dreams. It was only regeneration, so he would just kill her directly!
"Is that so..."
Unconcerned, Moonlit gripped the chainsaw tightly with both hands as an enormous bloody aura erupted from her body.
Then...
"Take this, Mountain Shattering Earth Splitting Slash!!"
Berserk energy spread through her entire body. Imitating a Berserker from some game, Miss Moonlit unleashed a Mountain Shattering Earth Splitting Slash at Siegfried, instantly causing the sandy ground to collapse.
Seeing the chainsaw bearing down on him, Siegfried could no longer hold on.
"Balance Breaker!!"
At that instant, Siegfried entered the Balance Breaker of his Sacred Gear.
His body grew even more muscular, while four dragon arms sprouted from his back. Each dragon arm even held a top-tier demon sword.
Wielding multiple demon swords, Siegfried had now displayed his strongest power. Facing the vampire girl before him, he became even more valiant.
The many weapons in his hands did not appear chaotic. Instead, they made him several times stronger!
In an instant, Moonlit, who had held an absolute advantage, fell into a disadvantage. Two fists could not defeat four hands, much less when each hand wielded a top-tier demon sword and its user possessed extraordinary swordsmanship.
"So strong!"
Moonlit hurriedly retreated several steps, her crimson eyes fixed tightly on the six-armed Siegfried before her.
Large and small sword wounds covered her body, but with Sephiroth's Cup, they completely healed in the blink of an eye. Unless it was a special attack, she could not be killed at all.
Even if she died, she could immediately revive!
Since that was the case, there was nothing left to hesitate over.
"The moon has turned red!"
She activated the Balance Breaker of Demon Sword Creation, directly pulling Siegfried into a world that belonged to her.
A gigantic blood moon appeared behind the girl.
Then the girl braced one hand against the ground, causing thousands of demon swords to rise from the earth and form a massive sword dragon that surged madly toward Siegfried.
Facing those thousands of demon swords, Siegfried showed no fear whatsoever. Instead, he took the initiative to charge forward, wildly swinging his six top-tier demon swords.
Every demon sword was completely severed before Siegfried. He was so fast that he could not even be seen, as if six barriers stood before him. Those demon swords could not get close to him at all.
Moonlit had never intended to defeat him through this method. It was merely meant to restrain him.
"By the oath of the red moon..."
She split the chainsaw in her hand into two, turning it into a pair. Holding one chainsaw in each hand, Moonlit's figure instantly transformed into an afterimage as she charged at Siegfried with a killing technique!
"Siegfried, watch out!!"
Jeanne, who had been watching the battlefield, noticed this and immediately warned him. No matter what, Siegfried was still a member of her organization.
Besides, Siegfried had saved her before.
As she shouted her warning, Jeanne also activated the Balance Breaker of Holy Sword Creation, sending a holy dragon flying toward Moonlit in hopes of saving Siegfried.
However, Miss Moonlit did not stop at all, directly ignoring the holy dragon Jeanne had created.
Blood splashed through the air, crimson staining her vision. The powerful Siegfried had no time to resist and was directly cut down by Moonlit's two chainsaws!
"What..."
His upper body separated from his lower body. Siegfried stared at the scene before him in disbelief, unable to understand... what had happened in that instant? Had he just died like that?
What kind of joke was this...
Yet no matter how unwilling he was, he could not change the fact that he had been killed. His corpse fell limply to the ground, and the light and color gradually faded from his eyes.
"System, strip his Sacred Gear!"
The instant Siegfried died, Moonlit did not stop moving.
She immediately stripped away his Sacred Gear.
Although it was only an ordinary Dragon's Hand, it was still worth Crystals! She would not turn down more Crystals. At the same time, her greater gain was Siegfried's demon swords!
After obtaining the Dragon's Hand, Moonlit immediately sold it. It was not particularly useful, and its only value was being converted into Crystals.
System Notification: Obtained 238 Crystals.
Huh?
This Dragon's Hand could actually be sold for 238 Crystals, which surprised Moonlit somewhat. She had obtained a Dragon's Hand before, but its recycling price had been less than half of this one.
Could it be because Siegfried had developed it to an entirely new level?
Whatever. It was an unexpected gain!
After killing Siegfried, Moonlit did not hesitate in the slightest. Even if she had not killed him, Siegfried would later have died at the hands of Dragon Emperor and the others.
Moreover, neither of them had held back during their fight. Both Siegfried and Moonlit had fought with the goal of killing the other.
If he died, it only meant he was too weak.
If Moonlit had been weaker than Siegfried, he would have killed her as well.
She gathered all of Siegfried's top-tier demon swords, especially the Demon Emperor Sword.
Moonlit did not study them much. She simply stored them in the system warehouse, then turned her gaze toward another target nearby.
Jeanne!
This time, no one else should come out and interfere, right?
"Siegfried..."
Jeanne stared at the scene before her in disbelief. Siegfried had actually died just like that?
For a moment, she did not even know whether she was dreaming. Siegfried's strength was considered quite good throughout the Hero Faction, yet he had now died at Moonlit's hands.
It was simply like a joke.
She even felt a sense of shared sorrow. No matter what, they had belonged to the same organization.
However, Jeanne thought of the leader of the Hero Faction. Siegfried had died here, and Cao Cao and the others definitely would not let it go. It was just that Cao Cao was not in Europe at the moment, so even if they wanted revenge, it would not be possible anytime soon.
"Human, now it's your turn!!"
Using thousands of demon swords to restrain the holy dragon, Moonlit locked her gaze on Jeanne once again.
"..."
Coming back to her senses, Jeanne did not hesitate. She turned and tried to flee, but in the next moment, Moonlit pounced on her and pinned her beneath her!
How could her speed possibly compare to Moonlit's?
Just as Jeanne thought she was about to die here as well, Moonlit had no intention of killing her. Instead, she completed what she had failed to do earlier and stripped away Jeanne's Sacred Gear.
The process of stripping a Sacred Gear was inevitably excruciatingly painful.
After Jeanne finally endured the stripping and the pain ended, Moonlit opened her cherry-red lips and bit into her neck. Between the missions of killing and subduing Jeanne, she chose to subdue her.
"Alright, human. Your life is now in my hands, so you'd better behave."
"I spared you because I intend for you to return to The Order of the Fallen..."
Releasing her fangs, Moonlit stood back up and spoke to her. Turning Jeanne into her servant was more valuable than killing her.
For the challenge bounty, the rewards for subduing and killing were the same, and she had already obtained the other Sacred Gear, Bible Creation.
Whether she killed Jeanne or not did not really matter. She might as well have Jeanne serve as her spy in The Order of the Fallen.
The Order of the Fallen was the prey Moonlit anticipated the most. Every one of them possessed a Sacred Gear, and they even had several Sacred Gears among them. All three of the only three high-class Sacred Gears were in the hands of members of The Order of the Fallen.
It was simply that Moonlit was not yet completely confident of taking down Cao Cao and the others, so it was not suitable for her to directly confront the entire Order of the Fallen.
Having a spy within The Order of the Fallen was undoubtedly extremely important to Moonlit. As for whether Jeanne, having lost Holy Sword Creation, would still be accepted by The Order of the Fallen, Moonlit was not worried about that at all.
Even without a Sacred Gear, Jeanne was still the reincarnation of that saint of Christianity. To The Order of the Fallen, she remained a member worth taking very seriously.
Arrival at Koma Village
"What an unexpectedly huge harvest!"
Moonlit looked at her newly increased Crystals. Their number had grown by quite a bit again.
Killing Siegfried and subduing Jeanne were both A-rank Bounty Missions. The moment she saw them, Moonlit accepted both missions.
This had always been her habit.
She had long memorized the targets of the Bounty Missions. Nearly every member of The Order of the Fallen appeared among the challenge bounties.
Although the two A-rank bounties together only awarded 1,130 Crystals.
That was merely an incidental gain. The main rewards were their Sacred Gears and demon swords.
The demon swords in Siegfried's hands were all extremely powerful. Perhaps they could play a very important role in fusing Holy Sword Creation and Demon Sword Creation.
