Chapter 35: Multiple Perspectives

(Rakul’s Side)

As I leapt, raising Zanma with both hands and stirring up debris, the soil gathered on Zanma, forming an enormous blade and increasing its weight to the limit. The blow shattered the barrier with a loud crack.

The barrier on the right side was also destroyed in the same manner. It seemed that they, too, took action to help Selk, just like I did.

“Push through!”

Swinging Zanma in a straight line, the swirling debris roared like a giant arm and attacked the Ozuma soldiers.

Having mastered earth magic through extensive training, I was able to fully utilize Zanma’s power in this battlefield.

(I’ll push through to the main camp!)

I continued to advance toward the main camp, scattering the Ozuma soldiers blocking my way.

(Shion’s Side)

“Is this what I expected?”

I muttered while observing the battle on both sides, and drew the twin blades at my waist, sensing the presence approaching from above.

Infusing flames into the sword adorned with a red phoenix, I swung it. The flames spread like enormous wings, burning away the rain of arrows falling from above.

Infusing lightning into the sword adorned with a golden dragon, I raised it toward the sky. The lightning turned into a single arrow, piercing through the flames and approaching the girl who was poised with a bow in the sky.

“!”

“Hmm, avoiding in a situation where your vision is obscured by flames… Quite perceptive.”

Even with excellent reflexes, avoiding lightning is impossible. This means that the girl, despite being obscured by the flames, sensed my lightning attack and took evasive action.

“The Black Storm Knights, they’ve assembled quite a group… I wonder which is stronger, my subordinates or theirs.”

Turning my gaze away from the retreating girl, I focused once more on the dark demon.

(Aria’s Side)

“To think we would need to defend against Shurin’s arrows…”

What appeared in my view after destroying the barrier with flames was Shurin, who was nearly shot down by lightning.

Fortunately, Shurin seemed safe as she flew towards the main force, without a direct hit. There was no concern about involving Serena, who was leading the main force.

“Let’s go, Ruskdite!”

Advancing while burning the Ozuma soldiers with flames, I then used Ruskdite to block something approaching through the atmosphere.

“Impressive… I thought only Lord Shion could destroy that barrier.”

A man in white robes with armor over them appeared, speaking in a languid manner. In his tall, lean hands, he held a spear wrapped in water.

“I am Hiruko Minushi. I’ll be your opponent… This is quite a burden.”

The man, Hiruko, said while preparing his spear. Contrary to his words, his flawless stance demonstrated significant skill.

“But I have no choice… Here I go, ‘Suiro Mizuchi’.”

As he spoke, water poured from the spear, attacking like a serpent.

(Rakul’s Side)

The arm of debris was slashed and crumbled. As it fell, a figure emerged from the rubble.

It was a massive warrior clad in gigantic armor, with a body exceeding 2 meters in height. His legs were like giant trees supporting his frame, and his thick arms and large hands seemed capable of crushing a person’s head. He wielded an exceptionally designed long sword.

“Foreigner warrior, I wish to hear your name.”

“…Rakul Valiant, wielder of Zanma.”

I answered in a deep, rough voice as I was questioned. The giant warrior fixed his gaze on me through the faceplate of his helmet while brandishing his sword.

“My name is Fudou Gouma. I shall defeat you with this keen blade, ‘Kongou Yasha.’”

Fudou declared and swung his sword down at me.
