Arifureta After III Brutal Hero Shia Arc I’m Opposed to Violence! Desuu!
.
『……This is really something. Also, pitiful.』
The divine spirit said that seeing the faint bluish white torrent piercing the sky and opened a hole in the black thunder clouds.
That was all.
It was a great power for a human, if she kept living there was no doubt that she surely would become a heroic figure.
However, it was meaningless because she would perish.
How pitiful that was.
That was why, at the very least he would end this instantly……he thought.
『Dance, children of heaven.』
Lightning flash ran through the thunder cloud and thunderous sound rang out. It was exactly as though gods were roaring in anger.
「Mumuh」
The rabbit ears stood straight! The vision of death assaulted Shia!
Shia unconsciously groaned.
Because although she tried to dodge, however there wasn’t any place to dodge from the start!
Instantly, extremely huge lighting that covered the sky descended from right above.
Sparks burst out from empty air and high waves of lightning manifested.
It was an attack that enveloped Shia.
The flash painted the world white.
It was an overwhelming lightning storm that seemed to say if the enemy would evade, then they simply needed to provide no place to escape from the start.
That was truly an absolute death that couldn’t be escaped from even if she could see it.
The unreasonableness of god.
And so,
――Level V
The thunder roared a beat later than the lightning flash. A cute voice that shouldn’t be audible resounded through the interval.
And then, the moment the storm of divine lightning that had finished its role was about to disperse,
「URYAAAH!!」
『!?』
This time the expression of the divine spirit definitely changed clearly.
The attack that should deliver absolute death.
As though to break through that light, that despair, the approaching rabbit eared girl was――unharmed!
The fierce shock delayed his reaction by a beat.
Even though he possessed perception ability that was worthy for a god, when he returned to his senses in surprise he was inside a kill zone that was impossible to escape from.
What filled his field of vision was the huge war hammer’s hitting surface.
The attack of the war hammer that surpassed the speed of sound caught the divine spirit along with a sound that split through the air.
『Nuo!?』
At the instant of the impact, the divine spirit was assaulted with fright and immediately crossed his arms.
Impact!! The divine spirit who seemed immovable was sent flying like a pebble.
He was spinning in the air before stopping somehow while sparks surged from him.
『Guuh. Impossible-. A mere blow is injuring me-』
An agitated voice echoed at the sky of the capital.
He was lightning itself. If he transformed into lightning instantly, every physical damage would be nullified.
Attack from spirit art would be effective, but even that wouldn’t be able to catch his lightning speed movement.
Since his birth, throughout the ten thousand years of history, he had no experience of getting hit hard.
The girl before his eyes stepped on the air and charged forward to deal even more blow. The divine spirit unleashed lightning attack to all direction once more.
However……
「Explode! Smash! Desuu!!」
Shia who was swallowed into the lightning was as expected, she was only stopped for a brief time. The lightning’s effect was lessened, at the same time she charged forward as though smashing through the flash.
『Impossible-』
The divine spirit immediately took distance with lightning speed.
Yes, one of the gods that was the avatar of thunder cloud chose to escape from human opponent.
Without even any time to realize his impossible action, the divine spirit agitatedly yelled toward Shia who was still rushing toward him.
『Why aren’t you harmed!?』
「Guts!!」
‘That’s absurd!’ Divine spirit-san’s face seemed to say that. Even though he was a handsome man, that expression made his expression looked somewhat like a disappointment.
Shia instantly closed the distance and swung down an attack to the divine spirit from overhead.
『Slow-』
Surely his perception ability was also at godly territory. The divine spirit didn’t show unsightliness for the second time.
He vanished with a light sound *pashi-*. Right after that, several dozen divine spirits appeared around Shia who hit empty air.
『It’s the end for sure this time.』
The arm of the divine spirit emitted spark while enlarging. Furthermore it transformed into the shape of spear. It became spear wall from all directions and attacked Shia.
He didn’t know what kind of method she used to dodge inside the ultimate lightning attack before this. But, in that case, he would just finish her with his own hand directly without fail. It was an attack that was truly filled with the determination of certain kill.
But, Shia didn’t dodge or anything from the beginning.
Shia didn’t move from that place and silently closed her eyes. The divine spirit who thought that she finally gave up was,
『Impossible-. What is that!?』
The agitated voice that came out from who knew how many times echoed in the night sky once more.
――Shia-style space magic Half Transition
That magic that could also be called as a failed space magic was a method of absolute defense that worked by forcefully shifting one’s own phase to neutralize all attacks.
Shia who became half-transparent wasn’t in this space at this instant. Thus all attacks slipped through her!
The lightning spear arm dispelled. The divine spirit was going to switch to another attack even while feeling agitated.
In that instant, Shia’s eyes snapped wide open. From being half transparent she took back a definitely corporeal body.
「Go fly-!! Desuu!!」
『Guah!?』
A single extreme strike. Vire Drucken that used impact to accelerate instantly from its standstill state sped up even more by Shia’s physical strength while rotating like a pinwheel.
The war hammer that was swung horizontally blown away the divine spirit radially.
In addition, Shia grabbed the leg of the divine spirit that was above her head and mercilessly threw it in the place of her war hammer toward the divine spirit below her.
A flash dispersed in an instant and the clones of the divine spirit vanished all at once. The main body of the divine spirit materialized a slight distance away along with a spark.
『Not just hitting me but even catching me? Just what have you done――』
「Guts!!」
It felt like a voice 『Shiiitt-』 that sounded like the divine spirit was grinding his teeth reached Shia’s rabbit ears. His appearance was barely maintaining his dignity, so surely it was just her imagination.
By the way, it wasn’t guts, but soul magic.
Even if his true body was something vague like lightning, him existing like this meant that there was soul residing in him. The essence of soul magic was interfering with existences that possessed no corporeal substance. Shia possessed no talent for magic to a sad degree, so she could only use it for grabbing and hitting the target.
Although, the divine spirit was looking really wary toward Shia who caught him even though it wasn’t even an attack of spirit art.
『……It seems, I have to recognize it.』
「Oh? You are going to be open to dialo――」
『Thou are, even more a threat than the child of another world who visited in the past.』
「Ah, so that’s what you mean.」
‘Even though I’m feeling a bit hopefulll!’ The rabbit ears raged.
『Let me revise my perception. Thou are an enemy of the world that ought to be removed!』
「……I got designated as an enemy of the world. Even though, I’m a forest bunny who love peace, it’s inscrutable desu.」
‘That self-recognition itself was inscrutable……’, surely if it was the classmates they must be thinking so.
In any case.
「Well, I’m the demon king’s wife anyway! Let’s just consider that as an honor here!」
『I will pay thou with death, for order and peace!!』
Even though she should be summoned here as hero, she was instead in a completely opposite position. Shia smiled bitterly at that while taking stance with her war hammer.
Instantly, vision of death attacked Shia like a high speed slideshow.
「Kuh, too fast desuu!!」
His tactic changed. There wasn’t any more powerful wide range attack that left big opening. He also didn’t stay at close range.
The sound of lightning firing consecutively burst out. Countless sparks flew around in empty air like sparklers.
In one second there were uncountable attacks coming.
Yes, it was a flawless hit & run in lightning speed.
(So he is getting serious! The attack’s sharpness is at a different level!)
Overwhelming speed that was incomparable from before. No, it was a phenomenon that should be called teleportation already.
(I cannot dodge completely!)
Shia screamed inside her heart. Even though it wasn’t simultaneous attacks, the speed made it looked like that even with Shia’s perception ability.
The moment she dodged by slouching her fist, a knee strike aimed at her face.
Unable to doge, she defended with Steel Garment. The impact felt like she was hit by her own Vire Drucken. Her body was forcefully thrown up and bent backward.
Throughout the pain Shia also unleashed a kick, but the divine spirit wasn’t there anymore. In exchange she was shown a vision of death. A moment when a lightning speed kick that approached from behind attacked the back of her head and exploded it.
「Nnnniii!!」
She raised a voice of fighting spirit and forcefully rotated Vire Drucken behind her. The tough war hammer became a shield and she avoided death, but this time she was blown forward.
A presence of death approached from behind. Shia rotated her body like pinwheel by making use of the attack’s momentum and struck behind her.
As expected he wasn’t there.
And then, a heel drop kick was approaching before her.
「――!?」
『Fall』
Thunderous sound that split the air resounded. Right after that, Shia fell with several hundred million volt lightning strike swallowing her.
She was struck down as though telling her it was insolence to be in the sky with a human body.
The impact came along with a thunderous explosion. A crater was created at the plain at the capital’s outskirt.
*Pashi-* along with that sound, the divine spirit already descended at the edge of the smoky crater.
『How suprising. So thou are still alive.』
「……Haa haa, obviously.」
The smoke was blown by the wind and cleared up. Shia spat out blood ‘peh’ at the center of the crater.
If the classmates looked at her appearance, they would open their eyes wide in shock. That was how great her injury was.
Her skin swelled red due to the lightning that she couldn’t dodge and even the Steel Garment couldn’t block. Her hair and rabbit ears were also burnt here and there, there were traces of hit here and there in the shape of internal bleeding.
