Technique Reversal: Reversal Strike (5K) (Continued)
Although he couldn't fully decipher this miraculous technique, now that he knew it, he had a corresponding countermeasure.
"Est, it's up to you now. Try to cut or disrupt her spell."
[Okay, no problem, I'll give it a try.]
"Good."
The words were finished.
He moved.
"Tendo-style Iaijutsu Zero Form Three - 'Asafoetida Evil Twin-Headed Sword'!!"
Swish--
He used almost all his strength in that sword strike.
The sword blade transformed into a streak of light, slashing towards Jibril's back from a distance.
This move was a brand new sword technique created by the sword demon Kisara Tendo in order to kill the Tendo Family.
One strike, or two strikes.
The first sword strike was delivered at the sixth cosmic speed, while the second sword strike had already reached the speed of light!
The two swords struck Jibril's smooth back perfectly.
When--
It wasn't the sound or feel of flesh being torn apart; it was more like striking something hard!
But the sound vanished in an instant, and Jibril, in mid-air, streaked across the sky like a meteor, crashing into the earth, shattering mountains, and finally slamming into the ground.
In an instant, the earth shattered.
But this was not the end for Yotsuba Mahiro. The Demon-Slaying Holy Sword in his hand transformed into CAD again, aiming at Jibril had fallen into the ground from a great distance.
"--" Material Burst--!"
The moment the trigger was pulled, a dazzling white light shot out from underground to the surface.
The earth was rumbling, as if emitting cries of anguish.
The blinding white light instantly evaporated the earth's crust, and the red, vaporized earth triggered a small-scale crustal tsunami. The ultra-hot soil and sand, reaching temperatures of thousands or even tens of thousands of degrees, were instantly sent into the stratosphere along with the beam of light.
It opened a hole in the murky haze that shrouded the sky, revealing a brief and fleeting glimpse of the pure night sky.
Strategic-level magic Material Burst is the ultimate method of converting matter into energy through Decomposition.
Although he wasn't sure what level this move would be considered in this world, even if it didn't kill Flügel, it would probably hurt quite a bit after being hit.
Since that's the case, Yotsuba Mahiro has no intention of holding back any longer.
Jibril is nothing more than that.
This girl is trying to kill me, so surely I can't just kill her too?!
With this thought in mind, Yotsuba Mahiro's mind instantly became clear, and the Alpha Stigma in his pupils began to spin rapidly, analyzing the Spirit Corpses falling from the sky and the energy called spirits that permeated the air.
Then--
"--" Material Burst--!"
"--" Material Burst--!"
"--" Material Burst--!"
"--" Material Burst --!!!"
He was like a Material Burst machine devoid of any emotion.
It was unleashed nearly ten times in succession, its power countless times greater than the first time!
The once scorching cave was once again enveloped in the white light of the explosion, gradually expanding and rapidly eroding the surrounding ground.
It not only pierced through the earth, but also through the sky!
The mainland is showing signs of disintegration.
The calm sea surface was suddenly churned with towering waves, as if they were about to swallow the shattered continent whole.
It was as if the entire planet was trembling slightly under the heavy blow of the Material Burst.
However, even so, they still couldn't kill Jibril. Yotsuba Mahiro used the "Eidos Eye" to clearly observe that there were still signs of life activity in the pit.
He was much weaker than before.
"Damn, it's so hard?! Is it some kind of turtle?! Do Flügel really have such strong defense?!"
This was the first time he, who had always been the fourth natural disaster, had felt so overwhelmed.
However, in the next instant, Jibril, who had been under his surveillance, suddenly disappeared.
And then, it appeared behind him.
"Oh my, Mr. Monkey, you've really given me a wonderful gift!"
Jibril's wings at her waist were mostly torn, her clothes were tattered, and her fair skin was covered with scars!
Not to mention that her once smooth, long purple hair now looked like a bird's nest.
Blood dripped slowly from her cheeks, staining her face red.
They looked exactly like demons crawling out of hell!
This was the first time she had been so badly injured since killing the Dragonia.
This was the first time I had ever been so close to death!
If she hadn't figured out the bug related to the multidimensional life form of the Dragonia and incorporated it into her defensive spells, she probably would have really died this time!
"Since you've treated me so well, I should reciprocate with a gift, shouldn't I?"
"Mahiro, watch out!"
By the time Est warned her, it was too late; Jibril's light spear had already fallen.
It pierced his heart directly, and the power enough to destroy the earth was fully amplified on him, causing him to plummet to the ground at an even faster speed than Jibril had just fallen.
Rumble--
The earth trembled violently, like an earthquake of magnitude 8!
Not far from the epicenter, several people hiding in the wreckage of an airship built by the Dwarf were huddled in a corner, trembling with fear because of the sudden battle.
"Hey... hey Riku, when do you think this battle will end?"
A middle-aged man, shivering, was wrapped in a heavy robe, goggles, and a tattered scarf, completely concealing himself.
Although he knew that asking this question was pointless, he just wanted some psychological comfort.
Unfortunately, the young man he called Riku needed to maintain absolute rationality at all times and was completely incapable of offering comfort, responding bluntly:
"It's unclear. We might even die in the crossfire of this great war."
He skillfully disassembled the parts from the wreckage of the Dwarf warship, completely ignoring the explosions and tremors coming from outside.
But beneath those goggles, a ripple of memory stirred in his usually calm, even somewhat numb, pupils.
He thought back to his hometown.
It was because a group of Ex-Machina hunted Dragonia that the destruction occurred, and no one survived.
He was left all alone, wandering and drifting in this world, until he met his current "family".
If I could die like this, wouldn't that be considered returning home?
Just as Riku was thinking this, a sudden surge of sand, dust, and debris overturned the entire wreckage of the warship, and the three people inside screamed and cried out in grief.
However, he managed to grab onto a stable object nearby, which prevented him from sustaining serious injuries.
However, through the gap in the torn open warship, they saw a figure slowly rising from the ground.
His clothes were torn, revealing his strong muscles, and he was covered in blood.
But the next second, the person's entire body had returned to its original state.
"Humans?"
Riku stared wide-eyed in disbelief, his pupils trembling violently!
It's incredible that someone can walk among the Spirit Corpses without being affected at all!
But then Riku saw something even more terrifying.
A Flügel!
That man was actually fighting against the Flügel!
"Pah! Damn it, come at me again if you dare! If you don't kill me today, I'll take you back and make you into soup!"
Yotsuba Mahiro gestured a large "stop" towards the sky, engaging in friendly international exchange.
Jibril was also panting slightly; she hadn't expected that a mere monkey would be so troublesome!
But the more she did this, the brighter the light in her eyes became!
She's determined to get that monkey's head!
At that moment, Yotsuba Mahiro noticed Riku and the others hiding in the wreckage of the spaceship, and was stunned for about half a second.
The ground suddenly shook.
Beneath the soil, a deafening roar echoed all around.
A giant worm, nearly twenty meters long, emerged from the ground. It resembled a worm, but its hard exoskeleton made it look like a centipede.
It writhed and rushed toward Yotsuba Mahiro, its blood-red maw wide open.
I want to swallow him whole.
That's Demon!
A sudden mutation of the Phantasma --
Monsters created by the "Demon King".
Its most prominent characteristic is its intellectual disability; it can never understand the situation.
"Piling, you dare to join in the fun, huh!"
Yotsuba Mahiro leaped into the air, easily dodging the Demon's attack. In mid-air, he grabbed the centipede's carapace and squeezed it hard.
Click!
Five fingers pierced through the carapace in an instant, Demon cried out in pain.
"Smash it!!!"
Without hesitation, Yotsuba Mahiro used her immense strength to lift the Demon she was holding and slam it down towards the oncoming Jibril.
Thump!
A heavy thud, like swatting an insect, slammed the heavily injured Jibril to the ground.
Immediately afterwards, several streaks of black light flashed by.
The perfectly intact giant worm was instantly sliced into countless pieces by Jibril, who, with a crazed expression and a sinister smile, lunged at him.
The speed was so fast that it pounced on him, and the two rolled together, rushing further away.
What started as an elegant battle has now devolved into the most primitive brawl.
Punches and kicks were used without any restraint, raining down on the opponent relentlessly.
It was like two wild beasts tearing at each other, both with an absolute determination to kill the other.
The two crashed into the mountain peak, destroying the mountain range before falling to the ground.
In the end, Jibril was outmatched in physical combat and was kicked away by Yotsuba Mahiro.
