I Reincarnated as a Villain of an RPG, But I Want to Survive - CH 84

Predicament

I succeeded in defeating the first tail

As Kurialanta, the incarnation of Mars, disappeared, the number of spirit mice has reached 50,000

My resolute soldiers continued to gnaw the flame while being burned and swallowed even the tiniest spark of flame

『With this, one down……!』

The red eyes of the swarm of the pale blue-colored spirit mice under my feet shined

『You can send the next one. Or should I say the second and third one?』

The number of spirit mice has increased nicely after the battle with the first one, Kurialanta of Mars

If this continues, at the time all the tails are defeated, it could reach 100,000,000 mice, I think?

『I will keep you company until you accept the defeat. Prepare to have all of those grandiose tails plucked and have your bare ass exposed』

『Hohohohoho, how scary? It seems like the child of man is getting carried away』

Hakukyoku Tenko laughed pleasantly

I have expected it, but she’s not flinched at all although her first tail is defeated

『Threatening a maiden like me, didn’t your heart ache? A man should be affectionate to woman, right? Then shouldn’t you show your mercy to me?』

『You can’t trick me by pretending to be frail. You are the world’s strongest. I am the weaker one. That’s why this is a challenge』

『Hohoho……, did you attack with resolute while aware you are weak? Not negligence at all I see. Then I won’t be impolite anymore and will entertain you. Letting a gentleman enjoy is a good woman’s job……』

Hakukyoku Tenko’s second tail raised

It’s coming……!?

「……Appear, Second tail, Mercury <Budha>」

The second tail appeared as a goddess from the start

A lump of water in the shape of a naked beauty

「That is……!?」

That figure belongs to a member of Ninetails

Rishwalker of Mercury is a female pirate whose headquarter laid on an important route in the world of 『3』. With her beauty and quick-wittedness, many rough fellows obeyed her to block the sea route

In order to go to a new continent, protagonist Raiga must defeat her

That female pirate stands before me as a complete water spirit

『No, before that, water……!?』

『<Wave splash>』

A large tsunami attacks us

The spirit mice which had increased in number were swallowed by the waves and swept away

『Oh crap!?』

The mice swept by the water have their holy beast aura removed and disappeared

And they couldn’t revive again

『You have noticed it!? That the weakness of the spirit mice I created is water!?』

No matter how invincible a technique or ability is, there must be a weakness

Otherwise, the story will collapse

My <Kanatehon Chuushingura> created the immortal spirit beasts which can revive even after being cut or crushed

Frankly speaking, it looks like there is no way to defeat it

But there is

The sole weakness of the spirit mice I created is water

They will dissolve if a certain amount of water is poured on them

The mice are said to be the first ones to escape a sinking ship

In the fairy tale, they are also lured by the sound of a flute to enter a lake and drown to death

Perhaps due to that connection, the beast aura of me, who has the 『Mouse』 beast power is extremely weak against water

That disposition didn’t change even after ranking up into holy beast aura

『To think that the weakness of my holy beast aura can be found out this quick……!?』

『Don’t underestimate a Tenko who have lived for thousands of years. I have abundance of knowledge and experience in proportion to my longevity』

This old hag……!

……no, nothing!

Anyway, the multiplied spirit mice were completely annihilated with a tsunami

Even if they multiply again, total annihilation is unavoidable as long as that incarnation of water is there

『……Is that the ultimate weapon against me?』

That incarnation of Mercury

Hakukyoku Tenko, who has 9 bunshin and can use the same attributes as them, shows no gap

There are 9 attributes, any enemies will have at least one of them as weakness

The nastier thing is that she has intelligence, so she can quickly figure out the weakness and relentlessly poke it

I find myself struggling more and more

That monstrous fox is really an impossible game (1)

『What’s wrong? Don’t tell me just because the affinity is bad, you want to give up? A true warrior would push aside any disadvantage though?』

『I know!』

Holy beast aura in full throttle!

Nonetheless, my holy beast aura is water-weak so a direct clash is not good.

Then……。

「Thunder, resound!! <Trueno Oomononushi>!!」(2)

I attacked with magic

Thunder attribute magic <Trueno>. Then its highest rank <Ex Trueno>. And the strongest thunder attack implemented later in 『9』 <Trueno Oomononushi>

Thunder is effective against water, which has high conductivity

If the enemy noticed my weakness and used water from the start, I intended to stun them with thunder magic or freeze them with ice magic

In other words, the current situation of the fight is within my assumption

The water goddess received the extra-large thunder strike directly

Fortunately, the effect is shockingly tremendous

『Hmm, a magic I have never seen before. It seems to be just thunder attack, but somewhat different……』(3)

Even Hakukyoku Tenko who has lived for thousands of years can’t understand the magic of the future

『Immediately changing the attack method once you found you your trump card is not effective. It seems like you have lots of cards in your hand. Good. I won’t grant the wish of any shallow guys who would crumble away just by having his weakness poked after all』

However, I have no room to be elated

I must grasp the victory in short-term battle

Although I had a way to recover, it’s true that water goddess completely sealed of the holy beast aura I relied on

The enemy is the same, she still has lots of cards in her hand

Before she plays a new card, I must remove my weakness and regain the perfect condition!!

『Third tail, Venus <Shukra>. Fourth tail, Jupiter <Brhaspati>』

Crap!

That fox, she already released the next bunshin!?

Moreover, two of them this time!

Although the water goddess hasn’t been defeated yet!?

『If you think about it, I think we have never decided to make it a one-on-one battle. You are surprisingly capable, so try to break through an even sweeter predicament』

Two incarnations appear

A goddess who looked like a collection of gold dust, and an overgrown tree with the unevenness of a woman

Three on one

Among them is the water goddess, who is already my natural enemy, this is looking quite bad!?

『Fifth tail, Saturn <Shani>』

『Again!?』

That female fox is unforgiving!?

If the last boss doesn’t hold back, she would be this savage!?

Water, Metal, Wood, Soil

The incarnation goddesses controlling those four elements surround me

『Being surrounded by beauties, aren’t you happy? This situation is called……what is it? 「Harem」 , isn’t it? Feel free to drown in their charm』

There’s no escape

My strongest means of combat, Holy beast aura, is nullified by the water goddess

And with this many attributes, it’s impossible to sweep them in one go

Suddenly, I have a premonition of being checkmated

『Come on, what will you do? A man I have expectation for would easily escape this dilemma. A cornered mouse will bite the cat, right?』

It’s easier said than done……!

I didn’t expect to be cornered this much

I didn’t underestimate her, but the power of the ultimate last boss Hakukyoku Tenko is too terrible

Even so, I can’t be hesitate

Whether Sero and Raiga, the two protagonists, can live as mere inhabitants of this world would be decided by this battle

Are you telling me to give up easily?

No……!

『Like hell I would give uppppppppp』

『You look sultry-tanu, stupid disciple-nu』

Eh!?

That voice just now is!?

(1): Impossible game is a type of game which is so hard (almost impossible to clear)

(2): トルエノオオモノヌシ. The words are in Katakana so it’s hard to find out their meaning. However, the “oomono” basically means giant/gigantic and “nushi” can mean lord. So this can mean “giant lord of Trueno”

(3): the word “thunder attack” here is raiden (thunder and lightning in japanese)
