I Reincarnated as a Villain of an RPG, But I Want to Survive - CH 77

Holy beast vs holy beast

Wartaiga was wrapped by the holy aura in the shape of a tiger

.

That is undoubtedly holy beast mode

.

Wearing the holy beast aura, Wartaiga stands before Sero

.

『You changed……, to holy beast mode……!?』

.

Sero was taken aback by the surprise

.

『How can you use holy beast mode……!? That is what Nii-chan invented. Don’t mimic Nii-channnnnnnnnn!!』

.

Sero started running as if to leave the confusion away

His target is of course, Wartaiga

.

He threw a fist

However, Wartaiga easily warded it off

.

『Shit!?』

.

He staggered, but attacked boldly again

.

But such move was no match for Wartaiga who is much older than him

.

The defensive move that Wartaiga cultivated through real combat uses minimum necessary power to nullify Sero’s attack

Just like a fight between a child and an adult

.

There is a definite gap between their techniques and experience

.

『Damnnnn!?』

.

Still, what helps Sero continue to fight, is it the passion of youth?

Maybe, if he continues to attack, one will hit eventually……。

.

But, don’t forget

.

In this fight, both of them are currently invoking Holy beast mode

.

Holy beast mode is something that even if only one side invoked it, it would become a massacre like when I fought Grey Ryuuga

.

Then, what if they are both invoking it?

What will happen if they fight while invoking it?

.

The scene of hell will appear

.

「Gyaaaaaaa!? The aftermath! The aftermath of the attackkkkkkkk!?」

「It’s coming!? Everyone, runnnnnnnnn!?」

「The rubbles are falling downnnnn!?」

.

The aftermath of the holy beast after clashing

It can break rock and gouge the ground

.

The surrounding Resistance members are in trouble. They can die just by getting mixed up into the fight

They might be completely annihilated because of the battle between the two holy beasts

.

「No way, no way……!? Sero-kun is strong, strongest in the world. I thought there was no one in the empire that can defeat Sero……!?」

.

The Resistance’s leader speak with a shaky voice

.

Actually, anyone who saw Sero’s holy beast mode will think 『This guy can beat the empire by himself』

.

But just when they thought so, a new enemy appears and stands on his way with the same holy beast mode

Their hope is crushed abruptly

.

Such rapid development won’t even appear in shounen manga

.

『Shit!? I can’t hit……!?』

.

Ignoring the surrounding chaos, the battle continues

.

But it was clear which one is superior

.

Sero is attacking incessantly and Wartaiga is defensively blocking, but all attacks are being blocked precisely

.

The defense side is using the minimum necessary movement to preserve stamina, so only the attack side is wasting it

.

Sero’s breathing started roughening for a while

His stamina is reaching the limit, huh?

.

『Haa, haa……！』

『You are brandishing your power grandly. For such a gigantic holy beast aura, you haven’t learned to control it precisely』

.

Wartaiga said

.

『As the result of neglecting the basis, you haven’t mastered this rare power. It was rude to think you are Jirat’s junior. Even during the first time, he was able to master holy beast mode more than enough』

『Shut up! How about this!?』

.

Sero gathers holy beast aura to both hands

.

『Holy beast wisdom ceremony <Yin-yang edge>!!』

『Holy beast wisdom ceremony <Sangetsuki (tragic moon slash)>』

.

However, Wartaiga also unleashed a concentrated holy beast aura blade at the same time

His trump card <Sangetsuki> is still going strong even in holy beast mode

.

The finisher moves collided and exploded mid-air

.

「「「Guwaaaaaaaaa!?」」」

.

The Resistance members were tossed around by the aftermath again

.

『…………!?』

.

At first glance, it seems like both finishing moves were equal and offset each other, but there was a crucial difference

.

Sero released <Yin-yang edge> with both hands, but Wartaiga only used one

.

The one-handed <Sangetsuki> is as strong as Sero’s full power attack

.

『……You haven’t completely mastered holy beast aura yet』

『…………!?』

『It’s because of the desire for vengeance in your heart. Holy beast aura is completed by uniting the violence of the beast and the reasoning of wisdom. Uniting the two originally opposing force requires a delicate control』

.

Don’t increase, don’t decrease

On the middle road of the two extremities. One can utilize the holy beast aura by maintaining that exquisite middle road, similar to walking on a naked blade

.

The control method can be mastered by using holy wisdom art, but if you keep your heart calm, the rage of the beast power will wither

.

It’s certainly really hard to handle

But that’s how a great power can be created

.

『At that age, you are handling holy beast aura well. But it is not perfect. The desire for vengeance in your heart is in control and breaking the balance』

『What are you……!?』

『Anger and hatred belong to beast power. You holy beast aura inclined towards beast aura too much and separated from holy wisdom aura. Despite that, it’s marvelous that you can barely keep the balance, but it’s still very uneven』

.

I also noticed that

He can overwhelm most enemies with simple power, but the enemy can master and manifest holy beast aura then they can easily pierce that gap

.

In other words, despite both being the user of holy beast aura, the level between Sero and Wartaiga is like between a child and an adult

That guys, even from the perspective of me, a holy beast aura user, has already perfected the use of holy beast aura

.

『S, shut up……!?』

.

Sero groaned annoyingly

.

『Why……, that way of talking as if teaching another person……! I am your enemy! And yet, why are you teaching me! As if……, as if……!』

.

Regrettable

Sero’s spirit has completely declined

.

The holy beast aura becomes loose and splits into holy wisdom aura and beast aura

.

「Are you my fatherrrrrrrrrrrrrr!?」

.

Even if he released a desperate attack, a turbulence where holy wisdom aura and beast aura were sloppily mixed was not a match for a complete holy beast aura

.

The unforgiving Wartaiga tried to deal with it using holy beast aura, but……。

.

『Holy beast wisdom ceremony <Sonezaki shinjuu>』(1)

.

Unable to watch anymore, I intervened

.

The rat’s fang formed by my holy beast aura shaved off everything, whether it’s rock, ground or another person’s holy beast aura

.

This holy beast wisdom ceremony <Sonezaki Shinjuu> is a decisive technique I prepared for when I faced a strong enemy

Unlike the oppressive <Kanatehon chuushingura>, this is a technique aiming to deal fatal damage to the enemy in a true one-on-one fight (2)

.

By gathering holy beast aura and imitating the rat’s fang, it becomes a lethal weapon that can shave off all substances in an area

.

Thanks to that, I successfully separated Sero and Wartaiga

As I forced my way through, the duo stood cautiously without making a step

.

「……can you two consider me and withdraw?」

.

I said while cancelling holy beast mode

.

「Wartaiga, your purpose is to retrieve Zelimgaia and Kuwasally who tried to intervene, right? But you are trying to do that yourself, right?」

「I see……, that’s true」

.

Wartaiga also cancels holy beast aura and returns to normal

.

「Of all people, I am the one who made a mistake in judgment. I will withdraw as you said……However」

.

The sharpness in his gaze increases

.

「The fact that that child is a risk factor for the empire won’t change. We will have to settle this eventually……Sero」

.

Sero trembles

.

「If you are serious about overthrowing the empire, I will accept your challenge. You can choose location and place as you like, or I will arrange a place to duel if you want」

.

Wartaiga turns back and leaves

.

「Remember this. If you intend to overthrow the empire, I will stand in your way」

.

And then, Wartaiga left

.

Zelimgaia and Kuwasally (both fainted), who he originally intended to retrieve, were left behind
