Chapter 131.1: Goddess of Victory’s Arrival
◆Dark Knight; Kuroki
The Evil Gods raised a ruckus the moment I changed from Medjed to the Dark Knight.
No one came to attack me, my appearance seemed to have been completely out of their prediction.
「SO IT’S YOU?!!」
Reiji groaned as he looked at me.
It seems he also had no idea that I was masquerading myself as Medjed.
I took a breath.
Originally, I had no intention to reveal my identity.
I planned to stay behind as support till the end.
I didn’t care even if Shirone thought that Reiji was the one who saved her.
I didn’t care even if my role was hidden behind Reiji’s dazzling light and yet…
Reiji got defeated.
He obviously couldn’t fight anymore.
Though we managed to destroy the pyramid, I doubt these Evil Gods would let us off.
Thus, I was left with no choice but to take a stand and show myself. freewebnov(e)l.com
I scrapped my disguise as Medjed and returned to my Dark Knight form, my real identity.
「You’re the Dark Knight who defeated Alphos, huh? Do you have any business with me?」
The Scorpion God, Giltar, who stood before me, asked with a gloomy face.
It seems Giltar had no idea about my relationship with Shirone.
That might be the reason why he was wondering why I was hostile toward him.
「I do have some business with you. But I don’t have the obligation to tell you about that.」
I replied with a cold piercing voice.
「Humph. I have no idea what makes you so pissed off, but I shall turn the tables. I hear that you defeated Alphos, I don’t believe that bull sh*t, and now I will reveal the truth.」
Giltar readied the weapon in his hands.
Giltar had four legs and four arms. The huge pair of pincers on his back acted like some sort of wings. His long scorpion tail was growing from the base of his spine and his tough, crimson shell acted like armor.
If he was crawling in that position, he would look like an actual giant scorpion.
The Scorpion man, that was this God, Giltar’s alias.
「DIE BY THE POISON IN MY TAIL, DARK KNIGHT!! DEATH THORN BEWITCHING POISON WHIP BARRAGE!!」
Giltar’s scorpion tail stretched till it became many times longer and struck like a whip at me.
I moved my feet to prevent my stance from crumbling, dodging the incoming whip with the least amount of movement.
「HOHOU!! SO THIS ISN’T ENOUGH TO DEFEAT YOU EH?!! BUT, I’M NOT DONE YET!! TAKE THIS, TWIN STRONG PINCER DECAPITATION SLASH!!!」
The two giant pincers on Giltar’s back unleashed a wind cutter.
Since the wind cutter might hit Reiji behind me if I dodged it, I spun my hand and repelled those wind cutters.
「STILL NOT ENOUGH HUH?!! THEN HOW ABOUT THIS!!!!」
Giltar brandished each weapon in his hands while shouting with an irritated voice.
But, I had seen enough, it’s time to go on offense.
Relying only on my footwork, I slipped in between his sword and spear strike, closing in the distance in a flash.
「?!!」
Giltar’s face, which looked like a mix between an insect and a human face, looked completely dumbfounded.
It seems he had never expected that I could close in the distance so effortlessly.
「I’ll make you suffer a lot…」
I unleashed the toughest power in me, that of the sleeping earth dragon my body contained.
The power of this dragon, whose body was covered in gem-like scales, was truly terrifying.
It should be strong enough to smash Giltar’s exoskeleton.
I felt the muscles on my arms swell up the moment I invoked this power.
I lowered my stance the moment I felt the dragon’s power was invoked, spun my waist and unleashed a full-powered body blow.
「GUEH!!」
My body blow nailed right into Giltar’s body, making him vomit the contents of his stomach.
Green-colored body fluids came out from the cracks of his crimson-colored exoskeleton that got caved in by me.
「Yuck…」
My left fist then unleashed an uppercut on Giltar’s lower jaw.
「!!」
Giltar couldn’t even groan in pain as my left punch crushed his lower jaw.
My uppercut made Giltar’s body spin in the air a few times before falling back to the ground. When his body rebounded on the ground, I stepped on his pincers and crushed them.
「ZOU VASHTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHRD!!」
Giltar shouted with his broken jaw.
My right hand moved quickly, catching the tail that was coming to stab my back.
「Is this the poisonous tail that hurt Shirone? It seems you don’t even know the basics of sneak attacks.」
I grabbed his tail with both hands as I dissed him scornfully.
「ZOU VASHTARD! VAT ARE ZOU?!! ZTOPH!! HNOOOOO!!」
Giltar pleaded with me the moment he realized what I was trying to do.
Alas, I ignored him.
I tore his tail from the root.
「HIGYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA~~~~~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! VRUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUHL!!!」
Giltar started calling for his little sister.
He cried like a moron.
I kicked his stomach, sending him back toward the other Evil Gods.
None of them were willing to catch Giltar’s body, they simply let him fall to the ground.
The Evil Gods looked at Giltar and me with unbelievable looks on their faces.
「Are you kidding me!! He defeated that Giltar so easily!!」
「Yeah!! Damn, this guy is bad news!! He easily ruined that condescending jerk Giltar!!」
「Giltar who says that he won’t fight us because we’re weak… was actually beaten black and blue.」
「Giltar who keeps shamefully insisting that he is the second most handsome man after Alphos was actually beaten black and blue.」
「There actually exists such a guy who can beat that detestable Giltar, who attacks his own comrades just because they accidentally bumped into him.」
「Yeah, Giltar is terrifyingly strong. Giltar who would chop someone’s body just because they spoke to his woman, has actually been crippled so easily…」
Could it be that the other Evil Gods actually hated Giltar too?
That one fact popped up in my mind.
But I shook my head since this wasn’t the time to think about that.
Both Zarxis and Diadona had only been looking at my fight with Giltar since a while ago, it seems they had no intention to fight themselves.
I picked up Reiji by the cuff of his neck, ignored his protest and brought him back to Totona and co.
「REIJI-KUN!! ARE YOU OKAY?!!」
Chiyuki rushed toward Reiji as soon as I threw him on the ground.
「I’m okay. More than that…」
Reiji glared at me.
Maybe he was unwilling to be saved by me.
I understood his feelings though.
「This tail should be enough to save Shirone.」
I ginored Reiji’s glare and gave the tail to Chiyuki.
「You… Could it be?」
Chiyuki looked like she wanted to say something about me coming only to save Shirone.
But I kept my silence.
I originally wanted to stay behind the scenes. That’s why this should be enough.
「What’s the matter, Kuroki? You seemed to have been really angry back there?」
Totona asked me anxiously.
「Just something trivial, Totona. Sorry for making you worry about me.」
I nodded to Totona.
「Reiji, how are you feeling?」
Ishtar had also come to check on Reiji.
「Don’t worry, I’ll recover with a bit of rest.」
Reiji spoke with a sour tone.
Maybe his recovery wasn’t as minor as he made it seem.
Even if his wounds had already been healed, his magical power wouldn’t return that easily.
Maybe I should’ve revealed my identity a bit faster to prevent his exhaustion.
If I had done that, I’m sure that… No, it was too late to mull over this matter. I don’t think the situation would have gotten better just because I revealed myself a bit faster.
I of all people should know about that the best.
All I could do now was to do my best to get us out of this pinch.
I don’t know what will happen from this point on, but let’s do my best for now.
「I see, then please take a break for now. You should use this chance to rest and recover your strength. We should let him fight during that time…」
