Those were the sounds of Altira's sword slicing through the opponent's armor... and the sound of the opponent's knife slicing through Altira's skin.
Altira froze for a moment.
Although she likes to talk about destruction, Altira isn't really a berserker who only wants to destroy things when she fights.
The Star Emblem is a high-density, intricate pattern engraved on her body from birth. When infused with magic, it produces a special effect similar to the release of magic. Combined with her innate physical abilities, ordinary weapons pose no threat to Altira. After careful consideration, Altira concluded that even if the opponent's weapon could penetrate her body, it would not cause much damage, so she came up with the idea of trading injury for injury.
Who knew that the opponent's carapace was not as fragile as the fragments Altira had found before? The tricolor longsword only penetrated half a centimeter before it could not go any further.
It should be noted that the sword in Altira's hand was a weapon related to the God of War, which had reached the level of a god, yet it was still blocked.
'Can it be strengthened with energy?'
Altira recalled what Merlin had said back then.
In the heat of battle, even a brief moment of distraction can create an opening, and Kitaburiru himself had just been momentarily stunned.
It had initially seen through the opponent's intention to trade blows, but out of confidence in its own armor, it paid no attention. Little did it know that its blade not only couldn't even cut through the opponent's skin, but even its prized armor was pierced a little.
Besides, Kitaburiru could sense a slight divinity from Altira. Although he didn't know where Altira's divinity came from or what her relationship was with any god, as a monster used by the Mother Goddess to fight against the gods, any of Kitaburiru's attacks were actually effective against the gods. However, even so, he still couldn't penetrate Altira's skin, which puzzled Kitaburiru a little.
Having been through countless battles, the two quickly recovered after a brief moment of stunned silence that would be imperceptible to most people. However, the scorpion was a bit faster, unleashing a tail spur strike that forced Altira back.
"Um!?"
As the distance increased, the Scorpion Man didn't have time to seize an opportunity to attack, because the blade of the War God Sword in Altira's hand had started spinning at high speed at some point.
Before he could even leap to the side, Altira had already thrust out the Divine Sword, and the three-colored beam of light grazed Kitaburiru's body and shot into the forest.
Kitaburilu couldn't react in time; by then, a small part of its waist had been hollowed out, and hot gas could be seen emanating from the surrounding area.
However, it had no time to pay attention to its injuries. Seeing that Altira was still planning to take the opportunity to pursue, Kitaburilu sneered and quickly raised its tail. Dozens of blood-red spears spread out in half a second. A third of them stabbed straight down at Altira, while the rest blocked all of the prey's escape space.
Although being injured by the other party was somewhat unexpected, once the distance was created, the girl in front of him could only turn from opponent to prey.
Despite the overwhelming red light before him, Altira remained unfazed. He continued to spin his God of War sword, which radiated intense energy, and swept it horizontally, scattering all the spears into chaotic energy that exploded around Altira, simultaneously stirring up a large amount of dust that obscured his vision.
Altira frowned. This energy seemed to contain potent toxicity that wanted to erode her body, but her 'natural body' could still resist this kind of poison that she hadn't directly ingested.
Before they could even begin to remove the obstacles that were obscuring their view, Altira heard a whooshing sound.
Clang────
Using his long experience in battle, he raised his sword to block the tail spike falling from the sky, but the thick smoke suddenly dispersed. Kitaburiru held two large swords that clearly contained far more energy than before, like scissors, and was about to cut down on Altira's head!
Won!
In this situation, the opponent has no time to avoid it.
This time, the magic contained in the twin blades is countless times greater than before, and their sharpness is sufficient to pierce through anything.
Thinking of this, the scorpion-man Kitaburiru revealed a confident smile.
Although the prey was a little more active this time, it was nothing special.
Altira was completely unprepared for Kitaburiru's series of attacks.
After seemingly hesitating for a moment, Altira finally sighed, and suddenly exerted force with his sword-wielding hand, shaking off the scorpion-man's tail.
Even so, it was absolutely too late to use the General's Divine Sword to block the Scorpion Man's twin blades.
Seemingly having anticipated this, the Scorpion Man watched Altira's 'death struggle' with an even more cruel smile.
However, Altira's next move was incomprehensible to it.
With the momentum and residual force from swinging the tail spike, Altira reversed the General's Divine Sword, aiming the hilt at Kitaburiru.
...What is this? Has he gone mad?
The scorpion-man had originally wanted to see what kind of performance its prey would put on before it died, but now? The other party was pointing the hilt of its sword at it?
Is this some kind of death wish?
Kitaburiru wanted to laugh, but it soon discovered that it would never be able to laugh again.
"Destroy it..."
Accompanied by a soft murmur and a "biu" sound effect, three beams of light, each corresponding to a different color on the blade, appeared on the hilt of the War God Sword, piercing through the Scorpion Man's chest before he could even react.
The twin swords, which were about to fall, froze in mid-air.
For a moment, the battlefield became incredibly quiet.
"you……"
After a long while, the scorpion seemed to finally react. Its mouth opened slightly as if it wanted to say something, but in the end it could only let out a strange scream and turn into dust from the spot where it was hit.
It could accept that the opponent had unknown methods, but until the very end, Kitaburiru still couldn't understand why a mere sword light could directly reduce its life to nothingness.
Filled with resentment and bitterness, Kitaburiru, one of the eleven children of Tiamat, ended his life for the second time.
Only after watching his opponent vanish into dust before his eyes did Altira breathe a sigh of relief.
"Destruction...complete."
That attack just now... she didn't really want to use it...
However, there was no other way in this desperate situation.
The two were so engrossed in their battle that they didn't even notice that the surrounding magical beasts had returned to normal. They only retreated because the aftershocks of their battle were too dangerous.
The illusion had somehow lost its power.
No, it should be said that the caster did not continue casting the spell.
At this moment, Altira had just defeated his opponent, and even his battle-hardened mind experienced a moment of relaxation under such circumstances.
And just at that perfect moment, the sound of something cutting through the air rang out right behind the girl!
Because of her momentary relaxation, Altira's reaction was a beat slower. By the time she turned around, she only had time to see a white shadow appear in front of her. With a palm as a blade, it stabbed directly at her without giving Altira any chance to deal with it!
Chapter 60 The Anomaly of 'Enkidu'
The opponent seemed to have a special ability to conceal their presence, making it impossible for Altia to detect them beforehand. Although the Star Emblem on her body actually possessed an ability similar to intuition, it was already too late when she realized the attacker!
Even so, Altira could still sense the threat posed by the attackers' attacks through the Star Emblem.
The seemingly ordinary palm strike could easily penetrate her star emblem, and its target was a vital point!
It was too late to dodge or defend; certain death was inevitable.
The voice had originally told me that I could find some answers after being summoned this time, but now it seems I'm still too weak.
Is this summoning just the same as it was in his previous life?
Destruction, destruction, destruction, destruction that only stopped at the moment of his own death.
At this moment, Altia suddenly thought of the Uruk army that had always stood behind her, holding off the endless onslaught of monsters despite their small strength.
Her former army only knew how to plunder and destroy, which meant she had never seen the kind of will that unites people to resist a catastrophe.
Even though none of them were strong enough to withstand a single sword strike, they still did everything in their power to protect the land behind them.
At the very least, we must strive to gain some advantages for them!
Altira had this idea.
Some say that when you are dying, your thoughts stretch to infinity. Altira didn't feel this when she died last time, but this time she really experienced it firsthand.
After defeating the Scorpion Man, Altira had no chance to regroup, meaning she was still holding the War God Sword in reverse... and after turning around, the hilt of the sword naturally pointed directly at the attacker!
The situation was critical. Altira no longer had time to rely on his intuition to find the opponent's weakness, and could only rely on the concept of the God of War to severely damage his opponent.
Even so, it should still take the other party a considerable amount of time to recover.
She died, and the other party was seriously injured.
That's enough!
The light gathered at the tip of the sword hilt, and the palm blade fell straight down.
The next moment, a beam of three colors shot straight into the sky, and blood splattered out.
Altira stared blankly at the beam of light that had shot into the void.
The hand that should have posed a threat to her had become a severed limb, flying away in a spray of blood, and she was pulled backward by the sudden force.
As for the attacker, he was kicked dozens of meters away by the black-robed girl who suddenly appeared. Even here, one can feel the violent vibrations caused by the opponent hitting the ground.
"Are you okay?"
It wasn't until the cold, clear voice rang out that Altira snapped out of his daze.
"Okay, thank you."
The response was equally indifferent, but Altira's somewhat unnatural gaze revealed that she was not as calm as she appeared.
Orpheus nodded, glancing at the hand that had just severed the opponent's arm, his expression shifting slightly.
Just then, with the sound of clods of earth collapsing, the girl in white robes got up from the ground.
Orpheus was extremely familiar with the appearance of the person before him, having even spent countless days and nights with him.
Looking at the figure he had spent countless days with, Orpheus's slightest wavering vanished completely, and he coldly took a few steps forward.
"I didn't expect you to come in person."
Enkidu rebuilt his severed arm with mud, and covered his forehead with his other hand, speaking with a cold expression.
Are all so-called 'kings' so leisurely and carefree?
Orpheus tilted his head slightly to one side.
A mere kick couldn't possibly have any effect on Enkidu, but he seemed to be acting strangely at this moment.
"Damn it...why are there so many problems!?"
Enkidu looked quite angry.
'The machine is malfunctioning... Why... as soon as I saw that person...'
Barely suppressing this eerie feeling, Enkidu looked at Altira.
But there were other things she cared about more than that.
"Woman, answer me! Why is Marduk's power in your hands!?"
