Chapter 167: The Weak of Light (3)

But aphrodisiac is from mouth or anus. In short if not slammed inside the body it does not exert effect.

And with my specs making a Monster Villain or Magician Diabolic drink aphrodisiac was difficult. That I could do it well at Adle’s time is because on top of Knuckle’s support the existence of a Growth Monster Villain was indifferent to his own damage and the other party’s movement. If other Monster Villains better to support Sacred with lotion or adhesive liquid than shoving aphrodisiac in the mouth.

But if the Magician Diabolic named Koito Tuse.

If a guy who does attacks and defense with a tongue stretched from his own mouth, making him take in aphrodisiac is easy.

Of course specs differ too much between me and Koito. Even now only finally made him drink a little with preparation. Not a degree to make him unable to act.

But that guy’s movement certainly dulled.

"A looking-down imitation...! Plan change, die first tentacle!"

Hate turns to me.

Koito kicks the ground and runs through.

Movement is quite dulled more than just now, but even so far far faster than the likes of me. If one-on-one it ends made a lump of meat with a quick attack.

"Fool, for what were you fleeing around while releasing arrows, if you think you understand."

Yes, if one-on-one.

Ground on Koito’s left and right. From there grass grows thick, and countless vines entangled that guy’s limbs.

Sacred Arrow can only use terrain-control power at places her own body or arrows touched.

Precisely because of that she made Koito repel her own arrows.

Koito also understands Arrow’s ability. Therefore even doing terrain control immediately after shooting an arrow, since wary he only gets avoided.

Precisely because of that she made Koito himself repel.

Not Arrow releasing the arrow, that guy struck it down to the ground. An arrow he thought he prevented, nullified. Using that, restrain Koito!

"These small fry...!"

Dyeing his expression with anger he tears the vines buchiri, mechiri.

A figure full of openings at a glance, but for that guy the biggest weapon is the stretching tongue. If me or Arrow carelessly approach we would be pierced and end.

"Here!"

"Chi, i...!"

But if Knuckle the talk is different.

She is the one with the poorest combat technique and no experience among Sacred, but in the aspect of raw sturdiness she is to a degree slightly inferior to Knight wrapped in large armor. About several blows she can endure even receiving no-guard.

"Small fry!"

While Knuckle closes Koito tears the vines, but slow. Avoidance does not make it.

That guy who groaned irritably struck the ground with both free arms by force, shattered asphalt, and shot it toward Knuckle like buckshot.

He probably intended to flee in the opening of guarding rubble.

"Naive!"

"Ga!?"

Knuckle without avoiding receives rubble with her whole body and goes forward, and slammed a fist.

Because he was about to jump back power seems quite escaped, but even so the physical ability of Knuckle who is an Earth-origin Sacred is Sacred strongest. Even if she killed more than half the power no problem, a fist with magical power of light riding gives Koito not a little damage.

An arrow stands in the abdomen of Koito bouncing and rolling on the shattered road like a rubber ball. The pierced arrow stabs the ground, and terrain control activates. Stretched vines slip into the wound and widen the wound mechi-mechi. Koito’s scream rang across.

This.

This is Sacred Arrow’s way of fighting.

Low status, at a glance seeming easy to defeat, and while thinking cornering and attacking she gets debuffs piled gan-gan, and location also adjusted so Arrow is easy to fight.

The result is this.

Though me and Knuckle are assisting, Arrow has not taken even one wound yet.

Because she is used to fighting while fleeing from strong guys in Sacred mutual mock battles.

"Don’t screw around, I absolutely will not forgive young girl...! Do not think you can die easily!"

But Koito is still alive.

Though not as much as Gain a Magician Diabolic with high life force. At this degree of damage he does not die yet.

He tightens the wound with force technique. Crushes vines toying inside with internal pressure. From the abdomen repairing crushed vines fall botori, botori to the ground.

"That is this side’s line. I want to say, but I am Sacred. Specially I will kill you easily, Magician Diabolic."

Be grateful. The figure smiling that way probably touched a reverse scale.

Koito raises a roar and sprints toward Arrow.

Arrow quietly nocks an arrow and releases, but easily struck down by a tongue swung while scattering saliva.

But the instant of striking down speed dulled only a little.

Sewing that slight gap I release eight tentacles.

Like restraining women and children fleeing, my tentacles restrain that guy’s whole body.

"Restraint is a tentacle’s specialty."

The special training of weaving tentacles and making weapons I did before failed, but thanks to the training at that time I can move tentacles more skillfully compared to the earliest...!

Dripping adhesive liquid from tentacle tips I further fix Koito’s body. With this he should be able to hold out somewhat.

"Fool! Did you think you can bind me with this degree idiot!"

Yes, using eight tentacles, dulling power with aphrodisiac, finally a degree of somewhat able to hold out.

In time at most several seconds. At the too-weakness I want to cry.

"But those several seconds are enough."

Do you think this me is a vessel who can win fighting head-on with a strong enemy.

No way. A pathetic talk, but even now if killing intent is directed I get scared, and if alone I would have fled long ago.

But fortunately or unfortunately I am not alone, and the option of fleeing vanished long ago.

"Now the path opened. After that you do it, Sacred Knuckle!"

Therefore after that only entrust to a guy who can properly do it.

Raising the right hand, concentrating light at one point.

"Thank you, Atel-san!"

She steps in by force and runs through at bullet-like speed.

Not light movements like Arrow, and not sharp like Saber.

By force, straightforwardly, forward forward. Movement with neither technique nor shit, boar-like.

But Knuckle’s status is Sacred strongest.

She later-attaches magical power of light to an Earth person’s body that does not need magical power. What other Sacred circulate in the body like blood she can use all as power to fight.

But because she has no special ability and little experience she is relatively weak compared to other Sacred.

That cannot be helped. If with only talent she surpassed Calmate’s Sacred who from many years before are trying to be ally of justice someone, that would be unreasonable in its own way.

Knuckle being weaker than other Sacred is natural even if not a character of a transformation-heroine humiliation game.

But only the weight of one blow.

If single-shot power, if there is charge time, if it hits, it surpasses strongest Saber or best Knight.

"This...!"

If he takes that in a restrained state, in a situation he cannot escape power, what happens?

"Chi, young girl."

Centered on the directly hit chest Koito’s whole body blew away. Meat pieces dance in the air while purified and fall on rubble.

Even though only slamming a fist of light with full power without holding back or fine adjustment, even if other Sacred did the same thing power above Knuckle would not come out.

At that power I am shuddering, and at my feet something fell kashan.

(...A GPS tracker?)

Directionally a thing Koito had, but why does that guy have this kind of thing?

While I hold that kind of question Arrow observes exploded Koito for a while then approaches Knuckle.

"Congratulations, junior. How is the impression of raising a big star?"

"I think it somehow worked, but I cannot get on a high."

Knuckle stares at the right arm still wrapped in remnants of light and laughs self-mockingly.

Even though she defeated an enemy big shot with that hand, her expression is far from joy.

"...Because this, if only me I would have been avoided and ended, right?"

That is because she properly grasps her own real ability.

Boar-like charge, full power without holding back or adjustment, highest power. If listing words it seems like a runaway locomotive that cannot be stopped, but actually dealing is easy. If she moves left or right she can easily avoid.

On top of that piling magical power in the right hand piling piling. This kind of thing is like an instant-death special of a fighting game. Even if full push it cannot possibly hit.

If with this she had more technique she could make the initial movement hard to read, or finely adjust direction midway through the charge... currently only going straight with an easy-to-understand preliminary action and hitting. Frankly if one-on-one even I can avoid.

"But you were not alone. I am troubled if you get on a high, but that does not mean make that kind of face. ...You did well, junior."

Ton, she taps the shoulder of Knuckle taller than herself, the shoulder of a Sacred junior, and smiled.

"Thank you, senpai. Yooshi! First big-shot defeat!"

While staring at Knuckle raising both hands to the sky and shouting I let out a breath of relief.

She could smash an easy-to-understand villain with her own hand. This fact will surely become that guy’s confidence.

Of course it is not that she became able to somehow do humans who became Monster Villains. Not that all worries were solved, absolutely not.
