Chapter 233.2 - Yamata No Orochi Subjugation Battle IV

Chapter 233.2 - Yamata No Orochi Subjugation Battle IV

After Yuuto and Co headed east to face the remaining five heads, there were only four people left at the sealing site.

?Guh, as expected, the real thing is really exhausting.???Ice Fortis Sagita(Freezing Spear)??

The cornerstone of the sealing operation, Kisaragi Ryouko AKA Class Rep unleashed another advanced rank spell to reinforce the ice sealing spear that started creaking.

Though the three heads were sewn on the ground to seal their movements, every single one of them kept trying to break their binding thanks to their almost infinite source of power.

If they were left unattended, they would break the seal in five minutes.

?Minami, I'm done with this one, now to the 3rd head!?

?Roger that, Ryouko-chan!?

The one moving freely and dexterously was her best friend, Natsukawa Minami.

Her duty was to inflict more damage to the head that was about to recover to delay their recovery.

Even if their target was immobile, since most of the vanguard was dealing with the other five heads, Ryouko and Co had to keep inflicting injury to the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd head to prevent them from recovering.

That's why Minami received an exclusive weapon to accomplish this job.

?There, there, be a good kid!?

She ran toward the 3rd head like a gale and held two kodachis in her hands with a reverse grip.

The one in her right hand had black and purple color.

The one in her left had a rather gaudy design with gold lines drawn on the black blade.

?Death Stinger?: A short sword made from the extremely poisonous tip of the tail of a huge and poisonous scorpion-like monster, the ?Death Stalker?. A scratch from it was enough to incapacitate its target due to the extremely powerful neurotoxin within.

?Yellow Paralizer?: Knife whose blade is latched with  ?SpiFrog's Paralysis Poison?, made from a combination of yellow frog and Arachne's poison. Thanks to the alchemy, the blade could release paralysis poison depending on the magical power of its user.

Both blades were latched with powerful paralysis poison. Both were powerful weapons that specialized in neutralizing the enemies rather than killing them.

Since it was made from extremely poisonous materials, Takanashi Kotori was forced to make it, regardless of her cries, under the strict supervision of Kotaro.

Minami wielded those dangerous short swords as if they were her own limbs and delivered a stab into Orochi's head.

Since it had extremely troublesome power and mobility, Minami kept injecting paralysis poison into Orochi's head to keep it incapacitated.

?Yup, it's paralyzed! Nakajima-kun, I'll leave the 1st head to you~!?

?Roger.?

The other person who was selected to keep the three sealed heads at bay was Nakajima Haruma.

He was a dual-wield user just like Minami. But unlike Minami who wielded her knives by relying entirely on her instincts, he learned the proper orthodox dual-wield from Kenzaki Style which had been around for hundreds of years.

Though the ?Silver Iron Sword? in his right hand could only fire magic, it was plenty enough for a user of Kenzaki style like him who was relying on the sword.

?Kenzaki Style???Twin Cleave??

Two consecutive attacks with two swords.

The first attack unleashed with the silver iron sword smashed the scales that were about to regenerate again.

And the second strike followed right below that place with the sword in his left hand.

?Cool Cutlass EX?: The enchanted sword made by adding the ice crystal made by Class Rep into its material to increase the power of the ice attribute.

The attack from magic swordsman Haruma maintained the ice seal for a while longer.

The reason he was chosen to help Minami maintain the seal was because of his power as the magic swordsman and his dual wield.

?Please take care of the iron lance too, Nakajima-kun!?

Yuuma nodded upon hearing Ryouko's instruction and headed toward the steel sealing lance that had already started to crack.

?Terra Fortis Sagita? used by Kyouko couldn't be maintained by Ryouko since it was made from earth attributes.

Though the giant black iron lance was far tougher than Ryouko's ice lance, it almost reached its limit.

The only one who could maintain the lance was Haruma, the magic swordsman who could use multiple attributes.

He returned his silver-iron sword back into its sheath and drew another sword.

?Kurotetsumaru?: A sword made by Takanashi using the same material used to create the ?Sealing Lance?Black Iron?.  Though this black katana was really heavy, the earth magic invoked with this katana would be powerful enough to turn into metal.

?HAAAAAAAAAAAAAA???TERRA BLAST?!?

It wasn't a range attack with low-rank offense earth magic, it was a stabbing attack from point-blank range.

By spending twice the amount of magical power than normal ?Terra Blast?, the thorn he unleashed transformed into black iron.

And then, as long as there was black iron made by similar earth magic near ?Sealing Lance?Black Iron?, the latter would absorb the magic to repair itself.

This effect wouldn't be possible without Kotori's enchantment, and special trait granted by Ryuuichi's ability. It was a special effect that was added after Kotaro begged Ryuuichi, much to the latter's annoyance, finally added the special effect because it was necessary.

The ?Terra Blast? of black iron fired by Haruma finally got absorbed by the sealing lance, restoring the cracked lance that pierced into Orochi's meat.

?Huff… It's still fine for now but… The magic consumption is quite intense.?

This was the first time Haruma had participated in such a long battle.

Haruma had been using ?Cool Cutlass EX? and ?Kurotetsumaru? until he became adept in using both for the sake of this operation during his dungeon exploration, but when it came to the battle of attrition, he could finally see the limit of her magical power.

?But, I have no choice but to do this… I have to accomplish this job even if Kenzaki-san doesn't see me!?

There was a dissatisfaction with the fact that he wasn't assigned to the same unit as Asuna in this subjugation battle of Yamata no Orochi but, because the enemy was too powerful, no one could afford to cut the corner.

Thus, Harma ended up jumping around between three heads along with Minami and continued doing his job to ease the burden of the other team.

?Oh no, the 2nd head almost recovered! Everyone suppress at once!?

And naturally, Ryouko who was in charge of command in the sealing site was mustering and focusing on her magical power that kept decreasing with time, in order to prolong the sealing time even by a second.

?….?

Takanashi Kotori was looking at the trio who fought desperately to prolong the sealing.

Yes, she was just looking.

She had no job left after applying ?Eternity? to the sealing spear that pierced the three heads.

Or giving things such as potion or water to the trio who returned temporarily to replenish their water.

She just looked at the trio's fight while sitting on the chair built in the western bunker.

Prrrrrrr, Prrrrrrr, Prrrrrrrr??

Suddenly, her smartphone started to ring.

She took the phone out of her pocket immediately, and the moment she saw the name ?Momoba*tard? displayed on the display, her finger stopped mid-air.

Prrrrrrr, Prrrrrrr, Prrrrrrrr??

After a long time, Kotori finally tapped the screen, albeit with a reluctant face.

?Geez, don't call Kotori when she's so busy, Momokawa-kun!?
