“I Move Like Thunder!”
Lightning-fast superhuman speed.
Enveloped in lightning-like light, she charged at with explosive speed.
“【Fluffy Chaos Kick】!”
“Iron make, 【Rashomon】!”
Espie and Slayer activated their powers to block her path, but… they’re not fast enough.
“Kishaaah!!”
“”Huh!?””
Norja slipped through the gap between them before their attacks and obstacles could fully activate.
“H, how fast?! Big brother!”
“Brother!”
I instantly deploy the breakthrough and my footwork.
Norja’s claws snatch at my body, but I dodge at the last mont.
“【Great Demon Jigout】!!”
“Hmph, I totally see yooouuuu!!”
This was completely different from when she was brainwashed and I could play around with her.
Norja kept up with my footwork, responding with swift counter-moves and direction changes.
Moreover, her basic physical abilities were vastly superior to when she was brainwashed.
This light surrounding her body…… Light?
“Eh, Norja, don’t tell …?!”
“No escaping this thunder!!”
At that mont, I realized the power that Norja was wielding.
And Tre’ainar beside ……
『Indeed. As Jamdi’el did…… Norja must have mastered it through her own thods…… my power…… and above all, the power of the child who once humiliated her…』
Fūrinkainzanrai, Norja’s new secret technique.
The power of Rai(Thunder), the lightning-like attacks and speed, were so captivating that I overlooked sothing fundantal.
This power is unmistakable.
“Norja’s…… Breakthrough!?”
It’s not strange, even Jamdi’el could use it.
Above all, even though I had Tre’ainar’s guidance, I can use it too.
There was nothing strange about Norja, one of the legendary Six Supremacy, being able to use it in her own way.
“Bwahaha! Back in that past battle when you totally railed my ass… with my butt all unlocked and my wild new kinks hitting , my brain went all fuzzy, but I burned that crazy power of yours into my skull like a million tis… back then, no Fuu(Wind) or Rin(Fire) could grab you, so the only way to snag you was… to snag the sa kinda power for myself!”
SUNAVABITCH.
“You’re kidding ?! Norja is using Big brother’s technique!? She didn’t even use it when she fought us!”
“She… she hid it for this mont… not good!”
A monster legendary enough to be rembered solely for its raw power… using the Breakthrough technique?
That’s cheating just by existing, isn’t it?
“Damnit, I won’t let you catch !”
“It’s pointless, y’know! I’m gonna getcha!”
“Huh!?”
At that mont, as I was desperately trying to escape from Norja, who was chasing from behind, one of Norja’s tails swept around in front of and lunged toward .
“Ah……”
“While using Rai(Thunder), I activate In(Shadow) on just one tail!”
“Huh?!”
A diversion!? Cutting off the aura of just one of its nine tails, erasing its presence to capture ?
I realized this too late. This is unavoidable……
“Point-Blank Transfer Magic: 【Sanrinsha】” 1[SM1]
“Huh!?”
At that mont, my vision changed.
“…… Ngh…….”
“Ah…… Huh?”
In an instant, Norja was in a completely different position than before… No, that’s not it. Was it who moved?
“Really… I told you to calm down… General “
“…… Ah?”
Was that a warp? But only over a very short distance.
Did she do it?
“Nice one, Lal!”
“Well done!”
That fellow, Larou’iph, was able to do sothing like this?
“Lal~…… You jerk! I was all set to reverse-rap…… cough, I an, make my move on my crush, and you gotta crash the party? You’ve got so guts, huh?”
“Hence why, Earth Lagann’s heart will never be…….”
“Should I just wreck you with my tail too? I know you’re all grown up but still got that hyn intact! Don’t care who you’re saving it for… but maybe I’ll just ram my tail in there no rcy, pound pound! I’m all up for teasing girls too, y’know!”
“Uh…… General ……”
That was really ssed up. Larou’iph’s face turned pale…… wait, what’s that about Lal’s…… no, that’s not the point.
“That’s… correct. I shall offer this body to only one person in this world… Though, I have yet to reunite with that person, and even if we were to et again, I do not know if they would accept . We parted in the worst possible way…….”
“Nnh?”
“But even so, I wish to be a woman worthy of that man I love… and if it is within my power, I want to be the one to make him happy… It is sothing that has now transcended re romance or lust.”
“…………”
“General. It’s true that you suffered great sha at the hands of Earth Lagann in the past battle…… but I implore you, with your overwhelmingly magnanimous heart, please… if you still hold feelings for Earth Lagann, I will watch over you. However… if you say you cannot yield…….”
“Hmm?”
No way, Larou’iph ca here, unleashed her magical power, and braced herself for Norja. Obviously in battle mode. Against Norja!?
“Earth Lagann is my benefactor…… and also a close friend of my first love… I will not allow you to defile that.”
With clear, unwavering, direct eyes, Larou’iph confronted Norja.
Facing her forr superior, and even more so, a legendary figure, head-on.
“I Move—”
“Close-range Transfer Magic, 【Sanrinsha】”
“Nugu?!”
Just as Norja tried to activate the power of Rai(Thunder) again, Larou’iph cast her spell first.
In terms of simple magic casting speed, Larou’iph was superior.
Larou’iph activated the close-range warp again, moving both herself and away from Norja once more.
In addition……
“You’re. like, such a pest! But I soo~ won’t miss the second you show up—not with the air vibes or that virgin scent!”
“Hehehe, then how about this?”
“Wh…… Ngh!?”
What is this!? Although Larou’iph and I were close to each other, we were warping continuously.
Not letting her pinpoint our position. Right, left, up—warping nonstop without pause, throwing Norja off balance.
This fellow… even this?
“Y, you… Nngh, over here? Next one’s… Nn, nuh, argh! Like, quit darting around like that!”
“【ga Fireball】!”
“Ugh!?”
What’s more, she even cast an attack spell while warping.
A short incantation, yet still a spell with considerable power, fired while warping alongside .
“Hmph, think you’re all sneaky like that…? As if that crap’s ever gonna hit —”
“【Sanrinsha】!”
“Hmm? HOGYAA?!”
What!? The fireball spell that left Larou’iph’s hands.
The mont Norja tried to deflect it head-on, the fireball vanished. But the next instant, it appeared behind Norja and hit her directly.
“Wha—! Larou’iph can warp the position of a spell she cast too!?”
『Ho~…… to apply transfer magic not just for movent, but for combat as well… interesting.』
It was a level of magical skill that even Tre’ainar had to admire.
And I found it terrifying, even though she was an ally.
“Fufu, that’s Ms. Lal for you!”
“Even Norja can’t escape that, as expected. Even if she uses the sa technique as Brother.”
Exactly.
If she uses a technique like this, no matter how you try to dodge the spell, it’ll just keep chasing you via teleportation.
There’s no way to evade it.
“This fellow…… as you’d expect, she’s gotten much stronger since then……”
Larou’iph, once known as the Ebony Witch, has grown so much stronger than when I knew her.
And……
“Fufufufu, if you’re going to fight to protect Honey, Aka-san’s dear friend…… then I can’t just stand by and do nothing to protect my beloved Honey!”
Larou’iph wasn’t the only one getting stronger.
“Ow ow ow… Nngh, the sneaky ninja chick!?”
“Now I’ll show you one of the techniques I developed with Shishou’s advice!”
Espie, Slayer, and Larou’iph. All three have beco stronger than they were in the past, but they had over a decade to do so.
On the other hand, she hadn’t had as much ti as the three of them.
It hasn’t been that long since we parted ways in the Heavenly World…….
“Ninja Art, 【Multiple Shadow Clone Transformation Technique】!!”
Shinobu, too, has grown even more……
“Grr, Lal and now… this hussy… Huh? Shadow clones? So, you can, like, create clones with substance…… Hah! Big whoop! Even if a brat makes, like, a dozen—”
“Oh? Were you listening? It’s not just a simple Multiple Shadow Clone Technique. It’s the Shadow Clone… Transformation Technique.”
“…… transformation?”
Even more……
“Appear! A hundred shadow clones! And transform into Honey!”
“…… eh?”
“Huh?”
“?”
“Huh?”
The clones materialized with a puff of smoke……
“””””Norja…… We’re gonna ss you up!”””””
“Huh……?”
For so reason, they all looked exactly like .
“W, wh-…. what is this?”
And then, as Norja was dumbfounded by this unexpected situation, my clones all attacked her at once……
“Have a kiss, Mwah♥.”
“What a cute little butt. I’ll stroke it.”
“This little thing? I’ll pinch it.”
“Lick lick“
“Slurp slurp“
They hugged her, kissed her cheeks…… wait, don’t touch her butt, her chest too, oh no, where are my hands going!? What are they making lick!?
“Whoa, whoa, whoa!”
“Secret Technique, 【Honey Harem Technique】!!”
Wait, why?!
“Fwoh fwoh, fwa, FWAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!?”
“Fufufu, this is a technique that Shishou suggested for psychological attacks, just in case I ever had to settle things with Sadiz-san and the others. Ah, but don’t worry, Honey. I don’t use my clones for things like… well, you know. After all, I’ll only be satisfied with the real Honey.”
『Well…… creating a physical clone is an advanced magic technique in itself… but to do so with a hundred clones, and in conjunction with the transformation technique, tis still quite impressive… hmm……』
Shinobu was also growing…… but I couldn’t bring myself to praise her sincerely.
Still, in such a situation……
“Hohoho…… though I don’t fully grasp the situation… after what happened at the Imperial Tournant, and facing such heartless words from the people, I thought you must have been deeply hurt… but other than Bro-kun and Shinobu… already had comrades willing to move so desperately to protect you… That’s wonderful, Earth-kun.”
“Granpa, don’t try to wrap this up like so feel-good story!!”
For so reason, Granpa Mikado was the only one chuckling “Hohohoho,” so I yelled at him.
But, Shinobu’s attack was more effective than expected……
“Aaahn♥ Nnhooo, th, that’s not fairrr♥ This ti, the one doing the teasing is… ee… Nnhee♥.”
Or rather, does Norja herself seem overly excited? Or rather, is she downright enjoying it?
No matter how many there are, they are just clones. Norja should be able to shake them off by swinging her tail, but for so reason she doesn’t try and just accepts them.
But… I’d really prefer she didn’t do this while looking like … just when I thought that……
〔Hehehe…… you lot’ve been ‘avin’ quite the lark while I was off on fishin’ trip…… Never thought they’d all get proper wiped out. Even Mikado gettin’ knocked about, eh? Bliy, when lads brought the news, I thought ears was playin’ tricks…… But ‘eh ‘eh ‘eh, with you lot, I s’pose it’s no surprise.〕
――――!??
〔Still, facin’ this bloody lineup here—dunno if I oughta clap hands and call it brill, or just say, ‘Well, that’s about right.’……〕
Those words shattered the indescribable tension hanging in the air.
“Ngh… Ben, what’s wrong? No… it’s not Ben?”
When we turned around, we saw Uncle Ben, who had been facing off against Koujiro, the only one who had been fighting seriously up until then, with a strange magical pattern on his forehead and his lips moving.
『Tis… a form of telepathy… where one communicates through puppets or unconscious individuals.』
「Tre’ainar!? Then that’s …….」
『Hmm…… I suppose you could say the mastermind has appeared…』
That wasn’t Uncle Ben just now. But then, who was it? That question was pointless.
There is only one person.
〔Now it’s back to square one on droppin’ Japone…… Hehe, well. No skin off nose. I’ll sit back an’ let ol’ Umashika show his hand this ti. Went out for a bit o’ drowned fish and bagged self a whoppin’ monster instead, so I’m in a proper good mood. Eh? Koujiro …… Mikado…… an’ lil’ Espie. An’ as for Norja…… well, looks like she’s got ‘er hand full, don’t she.〕
“…… Hakuki ……”
The man behind it all revealed himself to us through Uncle Ben.
