BGM: Evans Gambit – PGR
===
I an, awakening the power of a spiritualist at the last mont—maybe Hayama-kun really was special, chosen by the gods. Well, whatever. It was more convenient to awaken in a pinch, right? If that happened to , I’d be all for it.
「However, this is already a situation that's beyond what I can handle.」
The battle between the sacred beast Kinako and the giant beast Yokomichi was turning into a wild rampage across the cramped plaza in front of the church.
When Kinako shoved Yokomichi with sothing like a palm strike, the latter's giant body got blown away, crashing into a nearby house, which collapsed with a rumble.
Yokomichi got up imdiately and burst out from the rubble, ramming his giant body into Kinako with a body slam and sending the latter flying this ti.
As Yokomichi started running to follow up on the attack against Kinako—who crashed into and destroyed another house just like him a while ago—the recovered Kinako, sohow now carrying a huge tank-like object, hurled it straight at him.
With a loud clashing sound, the tank slamd directly into Yokomichi, stopping him in his tracks. Taking advantage of that mont, Kinako closed the distance again and attacked with his sharp claws.
Thus, the kaiju-like battle made it hard for us to provide covering fire in any aningful way. Getting too close would be suicidal—there was a real risk of being crushed by one of their massive bodies flying or rolling around.
In any case, half-hearted long-range attacks probably wouldn’t work on the current Yokomichi either.
「It’d be great if Kinako could win like this, but just in case, I should probably at least get ready to retreat.」
Even if that wasn’t the case, I still needed to retrieve Kyouko as soon as possible.
In a corner where the fierce battle roared loudly, I quietly moved toward the church beside which Kyouko had fallen a while ago.
And just as I reached Kyouko’s side, the Dark Knight Rem had also arrived.
Rem, carry Kyouko inside for now.
「Gugaga… M-Ma, Master…」
「So you could still speak even in your Dark Knight form.」
「Only, when, I'm, inside.」
I see, so just like when she first appeared, the little girl Rem must be inside the armor.
As for , I actually feel safer outside. I an, if I’m inside, I’d be dood if the armor took a piercing attack or sothing. But since she was deliberately staying inside, it probably ant there was no significant downside. I should confirm that—but it wasn’t the ti to do that now.
「I’ll go to Hayama-kun. Rem, get the core ready and be prepared. The outco of the battle with the sacred beast will determine whether we retreat or manage to take down Yokomichi.」
「Yes, Master.」
After quickly applying a lite potion to Kyouko for ergency treatnt, I left her transport to Rem and headed over to Hayama-kun.
「That's great, Kinako! Yeah, punch him!」
「Hayama-kun, sorry to interrupt your montum, but…」
「Ooh, Momokawa, it's good to see you safe!」
「It's thanks to you though.」
Since Kinako was the only one actually fighting, honestly, Hayama-kun wasn’t doing much. Once he summoned the sacred beast, he just stood there like Reina did.
「It looks like Kinako has beco a sacred beast. How’s it going? Or rather, there’s no way she’s going to stay like that forever, right?」
「Since I heard about it from you, I realized right away that he’d beco a sacred beast… But honestly speaking, I don’t really understand the details. Still, it looks like I really was granted the ability to turn Kinako into a sacred beast.」
And with that, Hayama-kun gave a quick rundown of what had happened to him.
I see, so the『Blessing of the Eight Spirits』and『Bond That Transcend Race』were the prerequisite skills needed to unlock the『Summon Sacred Beast』.
It was a familiar skill system, just like in gas, where you couldn’t acquire higher-tier skills until you’d learned the required ones first.
Hayama-kun was lucky—it just so happened that he had already t the conditions.
「I just tried using it now, but… I feel like my magical power is being sucked at an insane rate.」
「That definitely ans the sacred beast’s transformation duration depends on the caster’s magical power!」
If that was the case, Kinako might not last as long as I thought.
From what I’d observed so far, Hayama-kun didn’t seem to have a small amount of magical power, but it was definitely not on the sa level as Kyouko’s.
「Yeah, once my magical power runs out, Kinako might revert back. But it looks like I’ve gotta push through just a little longer.」
GUOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
An ear-piercing roar resounded—so many tis now that I’d lost count.
But this one was even louder than any before… Or rather, it felt like the number of roars had increased.
And in fact, that was exactly the case. The number of heads letting out those ferocious roars had increased.
「Uooooooooh… My power… I'm… NOT DONE YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET!!」
With Yokomichi’s fierce war cry, multiple heads sprouted from his back.
They were heads of Orthros baring sharp fangs, centipede heads clattering their massive maws, and yellow rats flashing violet sparks from their large front teeth.
Not only from his back—large, bumpy lumps of flesh swelled up as new heads or arms also began to erge from his flanks.
He transford into a grotesque-looking chira that grows the prey it devours. Yokomichi unleashed their abilities.
「PUGUUU, PUGUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!」
Kinako let out a startled cry without particular aning.
The Orthros head and the rat head each unleashed blasts of fire and lightning. Moreover, the pig head where Yokomichi was located spat out a vomit-like poisonous liquid—all attacking Kinako at once.
The breath attacks hit Kinako all at once, causing him to drop to his knees. It wasn’t a fatal blow yet, but it seed to have caused a considerable amount of damage.
Damn, if things keep going like this, we’d be completely overwheld by Yokomichi.
「Damn it, I really have no choice but to do it! Heed my call, Benio! I need your power!」
「Woof woof!」
In response to Hayama-kun’s wholehearted shout, Benio charged straight toward Yokomichi.
「HERE WE GO! SUMMON SACRED BEAST!」
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
As a howl soared as if to reach the heavens, Benio’s body was enveloped in a dazzling red glow.
And in the next mont, he transford into an even bigger wolf with bright red fur—larger than Orthros—appearing amidst swirling flas.
That fur, and the way he’s wrapped in flas, makes him look just like the Fla Lion Engard. Or perhaps, the current Beniwo was also a sacred beast harboring even greater fiery power than that of Engard.
「Haah!? What now dammit, another o————」
「Grrrrr, Woof!」
The fierce sacred beast Beniwo let out a savage growl and leapt toward Yokomichi.
With blazing fangs and claws spewing roaring flas, he tore through the massive, fattened body of the pig.
「Guuuaaahhhhhhh! You damn mutt! Don’t you dare look down on !!」
Yokomichi shouted in rage, but now faced with two spirit beasts at once, he quickly found himself at a severe disadvantage.
Having evaded the follow-up attack, Kinako quickly got to his feet and rushed straight toward Yokomichi.
With Beniwo already sinking his fangs into him, Yokomichi could neither escape nor defend himself, and was imdiately subjected to Kinako’s fierce onslaught as well.
「Graaahhh! D-Damn it! , being pushed back by these damn monsters!」
Under the relentless assault of the sacred beasts Kinako and Beniwo, Yokomichi’s body was being torn apart at a terrifying pace.
Kinako grabbed the fire-breathing Orthros head and, with brute force, tore it off, ripping it straight from the body.
Beniwo sank his teeth into the sparking rat head, chomping down hard before unleashing a point-blank blast of flathrower.
To cope with the situation, Yokomichi tried to use the remaining heads to distract the two sacred beasts, but even when caught in the centipede’s jaws or bitten by beastly fangs, the two sacred beasts’ relentless assault didn’t let up in the slightest.
Yokomichi fought back with the heads and arms that grew one after another, but Kinako and Beniwo forcibly tore them off one by one.
「Nuaaaaaaahhh! Unforgivable——— I’m going all out for real this ti, I’m gonna kill you!!————『Muscle Heat』, 『Blazing Passion』, and then 『FORCE BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOST』!」
At that mont, the massive pig’s body swelled up, glowing and radiating a blazing red aura.
That was Ooyama's prided triple reinforcent of『Pyromancer』.
Thanks to those three spells, even Ooyama, who was originally a spellcaster class with no physical enhancent benefits, could gain super strength capable of smashing a giant monster once he used this. Just imagine how powerful it would be if Yokomichi, who had transford into a monster, wielded such an extre enhancent.
He would have enough power to go toe-to-toe with both Kinako and Beniwo, the two sacred beasts, without being outmatched.
An unbelievably terrifying enhancent ability. A trump card worthy of being unleashed at the final hour———— That was exactly the reason I stayed behind instead of escaping.
「I can feel it, power is surging from my entire body! Look at this! This is my ultimate form that tramples everything underfoot! Power IS strength! Bwahahahaha!」
「Put a curse into thy body, it shall fall into endless fever――『Red Fever』」
The mont he finished chanting, an overwhelming aura burst forth—
But then, Yokomichi’s massively pumped-up, muscle-bound body began to rapidly deflate.
Even Kinako and Beniwo, who had been wearing expressions like “Damn it, aren't we screwed now!?” in response to the sudden surge of power, tilted their heads in confusion as that incredible strength vanished as if it had never existed.
「HAHAHAHAHAHA———— Eh? W-WHAT'S HAPPENIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING!?」
However, the one whose expression changed the most was surely Yokomichi.
Yeah, I get how you feel. I an, even I felt this was ridiculous at first.
But unfortunately for you, the original, unshakable number one ace of the hexing skill world, the『Red Fever』, boasts an unbelievably specialized ability: it nullifies the opponent's enhancents.
Even Ooyama's triple enhancent was rendered powerless in an instant before the might of『Red Fever』.
「P-Power… MY POWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEER!」
Along with a resounding war cry, Kinako and Beniwo bared their fangs and lunged to deliver the finishing blow to Yokomichi, who let out a scream, his face twisted in despair.
Finally, Yokomichi had run out of the ability to fight back.
With this, victory is o————
「S-Sorry, Momokawa… I've reached my limit…」
Having said just that, Hayama-kun suddenly collapsed.
And collapsed due to his magical power being exhausted…
