Chapter 307: The Stacking Blow

Chapter 307 The Stacking Blow

The accumulated ki of Touko condensed at once, and the air around it began to squeak. Touko intends to put all her power and all grudge on her next attack, assuming that she has only one chance to attack Alezel.

?Die!?

It was a tremendous blow that pushed up from the bottom to the top. Perhaps the impact was pushed upward by involving the surrounding air, the fist of Touko turned into a wide-range attack that blocked the entire passage and it attacked the rushing Alezel. Not only the power, but the speed is also amazing.

?As if I’m gonna die so easily!?

Alezel jumped forward and rushed in front of Touko even before Touko finished pushing up. It would have been difficult even for Alezel to move faster than Touko’s full power blow in this supergravity. Her forehead is covered with sweat, and her merchant’s smile has turned into a bitter smile. However, it didn’t change the fact that she had avoided the attack. Just before Touko completely pushed up her fist, Alezel passed by Touko.

(You’re amazing, Touko-chan~. Making me take it seriously is a great achievement, y’know?)

(Damn it…!)

I felt like they were saying something like that to each other in their minds. The gazes of the two clashed fiercely when they passed each other. Especially, Touko’s gaze was so intense that it seemed to be able to kill a small animal with the gaze alone.

?HARUNA! I LEAVE THE REST TO YOU!?

?Ugeh!??

Touko’s fist couldn’t hit Alezel, and her strong gaze wasn’t even a threat. So, she probably thought that she should at least put a burden on Alezel with her voice. Touko squeezed her power and demonstrated the lung capacity that she had cultivated in her martial arts. She shouted as hard as he could into Alezel’s ear right next to her. Alezel blocked her ears, but it wasn’t perfect and her body stiffened.

?Hah!?

There’s no way Haru would miss this chance. She had already thrown two iron balls that she took out from her pouch. The first is a fastball that’s heading straight for Alezel, and the second is a curveball that’s approaching from Alezel’s blind spot. They were launched at perfect timing as if she had anticipated Touko’s shout. Alezel can’t avoid them with simple speed. Besides, she can only move one arm right now. If it was Nell, she would have tried to catch it with her bare hand, but with Alezel’s endurance, that’s impossible. It’s a desperate situation for her.

?Got you!?

?Not yet!?

Alezel moved her arm at a high speed that can’t be seen with eyes. For a moment, I thought that she was going to reach out to the iron ball, but I was wrong. The destination of her hand was Touko, who’s next to her.

Then, there was a sound of something snapping. I intuitively understood that Alezel had stolen something. However, Touko was already almost naked, so there was not much that can be stolen. Or rather, she was already only wearing her underwear.

?????!??

I wonder how many times I’ve heard Touko’s soundless scream today. I felt that the two plump fruits were exposed, but I didn’t see anything. I didn’t see them, okay? Well, you see, it was Touko’s bra that Alezel had stolen.

?Touko-chan’s are big, huh! The size is just right!?

Alezel swung the stolen bra and hit the iron ball, and she did the same to the iron ball that was approaching from her blind spot. The cup parts of the bra burst open when touched the iron balls, but it seems that she managed to shift the trajectory of the balls by a slim margin. With Touko’s bra as a sacrifice, Alezel had survived the crisis.

?That’s the worst. There was no other way, but that’s the worst….?

That’s all I can say.

?You missed your last chance, huh, Haru-chan!?

Alezel, who has completely broken free of her stiffened state, passed through Touko, who’s tormented by the sense of shame, and she heads for Haru’s final defense. That said, Haru is not that far from Touko, so their distance is already very close. The game probably will be decided in the next moment.

?!??

?Haa!?

Haru launched a very simple left jab at the center Alezel’s face when she entered Haru’s attack range. There was no preparatory movement that Alezel couldn’t predict it, giving her no time to think about avoiding it.

In addition, Haru had set up a trap for Alezel. Alezel was coming through the supergravity net, but she didn’t notice that the area between Haru and Touko had a different type of net. It was not a wide-range Gravitas, but a one-point concentrated Graviton. So, Alezel lost her composure because she was suddenly attacked by a great burden. This was also a fine play of Touko who succeeded in distracting Alezel’s consciousness with her loud voice.

??………??

Alezel stopped after she passed by Haru. The two of them aren’t moving. Hmm, it’s hard to see from here. What the hell is going on…!?

?…… Not bad, Haru-chan. No, it was everyone who created this situation, huh. It was fierce~?

Alezel shakes his head several times and turns towards Haru. And on her cheek, there’s a line of scratch.

?With this, Alezel-chan training is over! Good work!?

?Ossu! Thank you for your hard work!?

The two of them greeted each other with great enthusiasm, and the game of tag, which was harsh in various ways, came to an end.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

?Hnnn…. Hm? Ara? Since when did I sleep??

When I returned below after Chinatsu, Touko, and Zeta had changed their clothes, Nell, who was carried by me, woke up. Good evening, what a good timing.

?Morning, Nell. So, Deris, you escaped death, huh??

?What are you talking about??

?We are talking about Haru and the others who have successfully cleared Alezel’s training! There is no other meaning!?

?…? Hmm, that’s great. Chinatsu, you did well.?

Yeah, you did well to make it in time. Really.

?The last attack by Haru-chan, I seriously couldn’t dodge it~. Still, seeing youngsters grow up is a pleasant thing~?

?No, I don’t think I could land a hit if it was one-on-one. It was thanks to Chinatsu-chan’s support, Zeta-san’s tenacity, and Touko-chan’s quick-wittedness!?

?Hahaha! You’re so humble~. Well, it’s a fact, though!?

?You’re like that until the end, huh….?

?You’re also being harsh until the end, Touko! Still, you’re all really amazing, y’know? Even if you search all over the world, the ones faster than me are only Maria-han and Nell. In other words, whoever the opponent is, you can land a hit if you work together. Defeating them is a different matter, but it’s still a good thing!?

Alezel took out a cracker from her pocket and rang it to congratulate the four. It’s true that each one of them still has a long way to go. Even so, the fact that they were able to do so well against the Great Eight Demons will surely be a great source of sustenance for them in the future. I’m just amazed at how fast they grow.

?H-Huh? It looks like I’m being invaded by something poisonous….?

?Ah! I’m sorry, Alezel-san! I poured various things into the jab and injected you with deadly poison…!?

Haru apologized with an exaggerated bow. Her, that’s rather nice. As your master, I approve it.

?Alezel-san, I’ll heal it with my light magic, so???

?Ah, it’s okay. Don’t worry, I’ll steal it myself.?

Saying so, Alezel bit her arms and put her mouth on the wound. Then, she sucked the blood and spat it out on the ground. That was without a doubt an action to remove the poison, but the place where she sucked it out and the affected area was clearly different.

?There, it’s healed.?

???Nonono.???

After Alezel stole the poison from her body, she received a retort from everyone. The Great Eight Demons are unfathomable beings.
