Anime, Girlfriend Shokuhou Misaki.

Whether it's Indra or Shakyamuni.

"It seems that I, Old Sun, will not be able to accomplish the great feat of slaying the extraterrestrial demons, but it is still an honor to fight you."

"I, Old Sun, have lost."

The Monkey King displayed the magnanimity he should have.

Now that his magical power has been completely exhausted, he has used up all his powers.

Now, even if one grits their teeth and tries to say they haven't lost, it would be too embarrassing.

He, Sun Wukong, would never do such a thing.

"I'm very impressed with you now."

"Putting everything else aside, I will remember this battle between us."

Makoto Haramura also offered his respect in his heart.

Perhaps his battle with Sun Wukong was not an evenly matched one, nor did it allow him to experience the thrill of fighting to his limit.

However, Sun Wukong's carefree spirit truly impressed him.

He truly is a deity worthy of his country's gods.

"I hope that in other worlds, I will have the opportunity to fight you again."

With a soft sigh, the blood-red crescent moon flashed across the sky, and the monkey head covered in golden fur landed on the ground. Blood did not spurt out; instead, the head and body slowly dissipated into the world.

At this point, the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, Sun Wukong, refused to obey.

--sudden!

……

“As close attendants serving the king, you are indeed qualified.”

"Hye-na will have to admit it."

Wearing a red and white shrine maiden outfit, Ena Kiyoshuin spat and wiped away a smear of blood from the corner of her mouth.

She was confident in her strength, confident that she could not possibly lose even if she were to fight two against one.

But judging from the current situation, it's clear that she underestimated the European duo in front of her.

She could definitely win in a one-on-one fight, but she was no match for two opponents.

"In that case, Hyena, go all out."

The sword-wielding priestess took a deep breath of the scorching air and slowly exhaled the incantation of her ultimate weapon.

"O Kusanagi Sword, with my own body as a sacrifice, you may quell the raging spirits!"

A faint, devout whisper rang out, yet the black-haired priestess's pupils still held a fierce killing intent and fighting spirit.

Like the eyes of a swordsman preparing to enjoy the battle between swordsmen, the eyes of a demon that will completely defeat any enemy that stands in its way and vow to annihilate them.

"Chiba-ha, the god of Igaki-mao, can be surpassed, now I name him, but alas, there is none."

Phrases from the ancient Japanese poetry collection, the Manyoshu, were woven into a kind of spiritual power, and Hyena's actions became increasingly bizarre.

These were very stiff movements, like a puppet being manipulated on strings. It was a complete contrast to the agility he displayed during the previous battle.

"Could this power of words be... the release of the divine sword...?"

Erica, who was also somewhat disheveled, muttered to herself. Reinhardt raised himself slightly, his entire body on high alert, and assumed a defensive stance.

"Erica, be careful, she's been possessed by a god."

"She is now the Kusanagi Sword."

Liliana, who also possessed the bloodline of a priestess, sensed things more clearly than Erica, and her expression changed instantly.

Based on my exchange with this girl, I can tell that she excels in speed and unpredictable swordsmanship.

Her current stiff posture makes it impossible to connect her with the strange swordsman from before.

The priestess and the witch are originally from the same system, and are descendants of the Earth Mother.

It's just that the differences between Eastern and Western cultures have led to two completely different names. Ignoring some trivial details, Liliana is stronger.

Adding to the incantation that Ena Kiyoshuin just recited, if Liliana still can't determine the true identity of the deity possessing Ena Kiyoshuin at this moment, then she's been a priestess for nothing.

"what?"

Upon hearing this, Erica dared not be presumptuous any longer, and a pale golden light even emanated from her body.

This is the power that Makoto Haramura infused into her body.

Simultaneously.

“Eloi, Eloi, Lama Sabachthani! My God, why have you forsaken me?”

Erica suddenly began to sing loudly.

This is her strongest technique, a trump card that can be considered her ultimate weapon: Golgotha.

"Lord, I call upon you by day, but you do not answer; I cry for help at night, but you remain silent. Yet you are holy, and you are enthroned on the praise of Israel!"

The Lionheart in her right hand points directly to the sky.

This sword appears in pairs with the Silver Greatsword, a magical sword wielded by her opponent, Liliana.

It was forged in the past for two great knights who would bear the names of the Lion King and the Fairy King.

They found both swords in the Florentine catacombs and used them as their own daggers.

"My bones are all dislocated, my heart aches like melting wax. You have placed me in the dust of death! Wild dogs surround me, evil people encircle me!"

This is a poem of despair, an expression of anger toward a Lord who refuses to offer salvation when the Lord is on the verge of death.

“My Savior, come quickly to help me. Deliver my soul from the sword, from the lion’s mouth, and from the horns of the wild ox.”

This is a hymn of prayer, an absolute will to return to my Lord even in the face of death.

"Let me tell you the name of God, praise Him in the center of the world, and convert to and dedicate yourself to Him!"

An endless chill was released in that instant, and the scorching air that had been spreading from the aftershocks of Makoto Haramura's battle also began to drop in temperature.

In the blink of an eye, the temperature had dropped below zero and continued to fall until it reached a level that no human could withstand.

This is Erica's strongest incantation, Golgotha.

It is the hymn known as the Song of Calamity, which Jesus Christ sang with all his might before his execution at Golgotha. The chanting of the incantation lowers the surrounding temperature and requires immense concentration.

Ordinary people will lose their sight just by hearing this, and those with weaker bodies will collapse directly. It can easily kill all those gathered around it with a curse. It is a word of hatred and despair imbued with the sword.

No, that's not right. This kind of temperature isn't just Erica's Word of Power.

Just now, a forbidden spell that Liliana could use was also released together.

It's unclear when Liliana began her chanting.

"People, listen to David's lament! How fallen are the heroes! How utterly destroyed are the weapons of war!"

The sound of chanting resounded all around.

“May there be no rain or dew on Mount Gilboa! May your fields yield no offerings! For there the shield of heroes is defiled and discarded, and the shield of Saul is as if it had not been anointed.”

It was at this moment that the bone-chilling cold spread out and overlapped with the forbidden spell released by Erica.

This is the poignant sorrow that penetrates Liliana's heart, a lament like that of the dead, filled with melancholy and regret, and also like the sigh of a warrior weary from battle.

Jonathan's arrows will not falter until the blood of his enemies is spilled! Saul's sword will not be sheathed until the oil of his warriors is drawn; why then do heroes fall on the battlefield!

High in the sky, Liliana's left hand was gathering blue light, and behind her appeared a longbow the same height as her. Also emitting blue light, four arrows appeared directly.

"Jonathan's bow, swift as a startled lion, mighty weapon of a warrior, run and crush your enemies."

From that azure longbow, four sharp arrows shot out like comets.

All the arrows followed bizarre trajectories as they hurtled through the air towards Ena Kiyoshuin.

"Qiang Qiang Qiang——!"

With three crisp sounds in succession, the three arrows were knocked away by the now fully transformed sword blade.

Dark, elongated, and curved, as if a master blacksmith were hammering steel to forge a sword out of thin air, the weapon in Ena Kiyoshuu's hands had completely changed shape just as Erica and Liliana were chanting the incantation.

"Pfft!"

The sound of flesh being torn apart rang out, and the last azure arrow successfully pierced through Kiyoshuin Ena's abdomen, with bright red blood flowing out of the wound.

Finally, Ena Kiyoshuuin opened her mouth.

The mechanical, dry voice made Erica and Liliana feel uncomfortable.

"No wonder the priestess used this move; she must have encountered a troublesome enemy."

But the next second, a red figure had already crossed the battlefield from the sky and suddenly attacked.

"O Lion of Steel, I imbue it with the spirit of sighs and wrath. May it dwell within the lamentations of the Son of God and the Holy Spirit, bathe it in the final blood of the saints, and here reveal the Holy Lance, Longinus!"

The desperate words of spirit gathered around the sky resided in the beloved sword.

Erica gripped the sword hilt with both hands, raised the "Lionheart," which was imbued with the power of despair, and swung it down.

The Kusanagi Sword, which had already fully completed its possession, swayed slightly.

Although it was a bit dry, she did indeed dodge the slash with just that one flash.

However, Erica's sword did not stop there; instead, she began her sword dance.

She aimed at the face, the side of the head, the left shoulder, the leg, the side of the abdomen, the heart, the carotid artery, and the right wrist, relentlessly swinging her sword.

The sword light, as swift as the wind and as fast as lightning, launched an attack incessantly. Whenever an attack approached, the Kusanagi Sword awkwardly twisted its body to dodge it.

However, the unpredictable attacks have not yet fully taken control of the body.

"Bah!"

The Ame-no-Murakumo sword looked at its hand and said with great interest.

"I see. No wonder you saw through it and still dared to challenge me. You do have some skills."

"As a reward for your hard work, I'll take it a little more seriously."

Ena Kiyoaki flexed her wrist, and the blade swiftly sliced ​​through the air with a sharp, piercing sound.

"Qiang——!"

Chapter 331 The Scurrying Rats

The Soul-Suppressing Arrow is Liliana's Silver Master's special ability.

Similarly, Lionheart, who is on par with the Silver Master, also has his own special abilities.

Its special feature is the special curse now residing in the Lionheart, which is the same curse as the Holy Lance Longinus that resides in Erica's sword, capable of destroying even the Son of God or an evil demon.

Normally, human weapons and spells could never harm gods.

This is due to differences in physical condition and race.

However, the Lionheart Transformation allows humans to do this, and the wounds she inflicts on gods are cursed, preventing them from healing.

Even though the Ame-no-Murakumo Sword is currently only in a state of possession, Kiyoshuin Ena still possesses some of the qualities of the Steel God.

Such an injury inflicted by the Lionheart was enough to shock even the Kusanagi Sword.

That's enough to make the Kusanagi Sword enter a state of rage.

"boom--!"

One in red, one in blue, two beautiful figures were sent flying backwards by the black blade, two streaks of bright red blood falling from the sky.

In just a moment, the outcome of the battle was decided.

Of course, this was partly due to Erica and Liliana using forbidden spells.

Even though the object of their disobedience was merely a demigod possessing them, the difference in strength was still undeniable for these two female knights.

After all, she is still just a human being.

Human beings do have their limits.

Makoto Haramura did not provide any means of protection; the protection he offered to Liliana and Erica was merely a very simple form of protection.
