Manowa - Chapter 392

「Alright, they came. It’s Aneki and the others!」

Naoki shouted when he saw Kazane and the others coming out of the forest. However, behind them, dust was rising as the trees were being mown down with tremendous momentum. It was completely obvious that the Brutuzas had arrived.

Then the surrounding trees were sent flying as the 5 Brutuzas rushed out of the forest.

「GURUoOOOOOOO!!」

With tremendous screams, the huge monsters chased Kazane and the others, which meant they were also heading toward Naoki and the others.

「They’re absurdly angry, aren’t they?」

Han Mock gulped and said. Naoki smiled bitterly. Naoki thought that Kazane probably provoked them more than necessary, which, of course, was the correct answer.

「So then, please take care of it!!」

Kazane and the others whooshed past them in the sky, and it was finally the turn of Han Mock and the others. Their preparations were ready. And first of all was the opening move.

「Yuuko-nee!」

「Nyaaaa !!」

In accordance with Naoki’s words, Yuuko-nee extended her foreleg and slapped the ground with her paw.

「Nyanyaa!!」

Yuuko-nee activated her own Golem Maker ability. And the ground in front of her cracked.

「GUooO!」

When the cracking ground extended to beneath their feet, the Brutuzas shouted.

It was a pitfall they had prepared early in the morning. Kazane and Yuuko-nee dug it with Golem Maker, then covered it with hardened earth; that soil hardening was undone by Yuuko-nee’s『Golem Maker』Skill.

When that happened, naturally, the hardened soil covering the hole disappeared. And…

「GUaTUGAaAAA!?」

As a matter of course, Brutuzas fell into the hole.

「Alright!」

Naoki made a triumphant pose, and Yuuko-nee also cried Nyaa, but only two fell. Despite their huge bodies, the other three animals following slightly behind jumped over the hole without stopping and headed toward them.

「Seriously!?」

「Funyaa!?」

They were both surprised, and Yuuko-nee’s fur stood on end. However, Han Mock and the other adventurers of the『Shield Birth』party stood in front of them. The members of the party『Wind’s Master』were also standing behind them.

「No, well done, Ogre Killing Princess’ cat. If there’s three, we’ll be able to manage.」

And while holding their shields with both hands, the three members of『Shield Birth』took a stance and immediately released their Fighting Spirit. It was a secret technique used by Shield Warriors called『Judgement Barrier』that created a barrier with their shields that repelled every kind of attack. The Brutuzas collided with those.

The skeletal structures on the heads of Brutuzas weren’t just tough; they also repelled magical power. For that reason, magical power sparks were scattering as they tried to destroy the shield made of Han Mock and the others’ fighting spirit.

「Well then, we’ll also go.『Commandment of wind. Seal the monster before my eyes!』」

『『『『『Commandment of wind. Seal the monster before my eyes!』』』』』

Furthermore, as Han Mock and the others were protecting in the front, behind them, first Terrace and then the other members of『Wind’s Master』activated their spells at the same time, and due to the synergistic effect from their spells all having the same attribute, the movements of the Brutuzas were restricted even further.

That was an opportunity.

「Alright, this is the climax!!」

That voice came from a small depression just beside where the Brutuzas were clashing with Han Mock’s group.

And separate from Han Mock and the others, who had the role of attracting and restraining the enemies from the front, the long distance attack force would attack from the side; their turn had finally come, so they rushed out.

Then Jinrai’s『Thunder God Cannon』; Yumika, Lyle, and Jin Bahar’s『Thunder God Spear』used with Adamantium Spears; Tatsuo’s Mega Beam; stone throwing from the mass production model Tatsuyoshi-kuns; magic from the rear guard of『Shield Birth』; and furthermore, arrows from Emily and the member of Vokka’s party『Meteor Rain』were all fired simultaneously.

Together with a tremendous thunderous roar, the three Brutuzas were instantly blown away.

「This is extreme.」

Although it was a strategy she herself had created, that excessive power made Kazane break out in a cold sweat. In the blink of an eye, the three Brutuzas were shredded into pieces and blown away.

The strength of the skeletal structure on a Brutuza’s head was certainly abnormal. But that didn’t mean the rest of their body was fragile. Like tofu that had violently struck the floor, fragments of meat sploshed across the ground.

Naturally, the power of Jinrai’s『Thunder God Cannon』was especially enormous, but the countless attacks that had accompanied it had kicked them while they were already down; the Brutuzas had probably died instantly. With the exception of their heads, their figures had almost no trace of their former appearances as they collapsed on the spot.

However, that wasn’t the end.

「GUooO!」「GYAGAaA」

The moment the shooting finished, two Brutuzas came out of the pitfall with great force. Then they respectively rushed towards Jinrai’s group and Han Mock’s group.

「It’s coming. As you’d expect, a second time is impossible!」

Han Mock announced. It seemed their stamina had been completely snatched away from stopping the first rush alone. And that was the same for Terrace’s party.

However, there was still another defensive measure.

「Tiara, protect them. Louise-san and Naoki, support. I’ll bring it down!」

「Understood」「OK!」「Let’s go, Aneki!」

Tiara and the others responded to Kazane’s words. As for Jinrai and the others…

「Not even the Thunder God Cannon can go through. What admirable hardheadedness!」

He fired one shot, but it seemed it was repelled. It had formidable strength.

「Master, what shall we do?」

Yumika asked Jinrai after he said that like a curse.

「Yumika. The Barnes spear school’s『Reflect Mirror』. Can you do it?」

Yumika’s eyes opened wide after those words.

「I can do it, but as you’d expect, that will only work for a moment?」

「No problem. Me」— Jinrai raised the cocoon he was holding in his hand up to the sky—」and my『partner』will go around it together! Now, come,『Shippuu』!!」

Then, the cocoon cracked. The preparations were already completed. And the creature that jumped out was a kitten. In the twinkling of an eye, it became huge; just like Yuuko-nee, it became a giant cat with an appearance like a Siberian cat. Unlike the golden fur Yuuko-nee now had, it had a black and silver striped pattern, and it also had a more youthful face than Yuuko-nee.

「Shippuu! Yuuko-nee and my son!! Let’s go!!!」

「Naago!!」

Jinrai said as he got on his back, and Shippuu cried out and nodded. Shippuu was born for that reason. Born so that one person and one huge cat could act as one body. The fastest beast that controlled Wind and Lightning.

『I will go too.』

Tatsuo got on the Shippuu’s head.

「Tatsuo?」

『Master, this is an important battle for me.』

After Tatsuo spoke, Jinrai nodded. Jinrai saw the flames in the depths of Tatsuo’s eyes. It was the brilliance of a manly soul.

「Master, aren’t all of you too composed!?」

Yumika said in front of the Brutuza that was already close.

Then Yumika changed into a wolf with『Deepening』and rushed forward.

『Well then, I’ll be relying on master’s follow-up.』

Yumika called out behind her and took a deep breath.

Tiara felt entirely as if a huge wall was before her eyes. However, the next moment, Tiara activated『Aegis Field』from the Heaven Mirror Greatshield. Like when the White Party was formerly saved from the Black Rock Dragon’s scale projectiles, a pattern rose from the front surface of the shield and developed in front of her. The Brutuza crashed into it and stopped.

Yumika felt entirely as if a huge wall was before her eyes. But Yumika was entrusted a task by her master. In that case, she had no choice but to do it, and with her Complete Wolf Transformed body, she thrust out her spear while loading it with fighting spirit. Then, at the moment it collided with the Brutuza, she released that fighting spirit and stopped its momentum. That was the Barnes spear school’s『Reflect Mirror』. The Barnes secret technique that repulsed every kind of attack.

At the same time, Kazane rushed out. She flew in the sky with angel wings, accelerated with Air Jump, used Boost to further raise her speed, and used the Fire Boosts from her tonfas to instantly accelerate to maximum speed.

At the same time, Shippuu, who Jinrai and Tatsuo were riding, started running. He moved with lightning speed. Wind’s Divine Protection covered Shippuu, and his lightning claws dug into the ground to accelerate him. With speed that eyes couldn’t follow, he instantly ran behind the Brutuza.

To match her assault, Naoki’s magic swords, which had transformed into energy dragons, and Louise’s Lightning Sphere crashed into the front of the Brutuza’s head. That power moved the Brutuza’s target from Kazane to Naoki and Louise.

To match their assault, Emily shot the dragon archery technique『Annihilation Dragon』as Lyle and Jin Bahar fired Thunder God Spears at the Brutuza. While it was only to the degree of Adamantium spears and dragon fang arrows, they were powerful. That power moved the Brutuza’s target from Jinrai’s group to Emily, Lyle, and Jin Bahar.

Kazane, who instantly arrived in the sky, unleashed the fastest and greatest Skill she had. That was Mega Beam. A colossal amount of light overflowed from Kazane’s eyes, becoming a huge flash of light that pierced the Brutuza’s body.

With the swiftness of Shippuu’s feet, even with a roundabout path, Jinrai instantly reached the Brutuza’s soft underbelly and used Heart Hunter to cut a huge hole. Tatsuo further fired a full-power Mega Beam into the wound and instantly pierced through the insides.

Then, the Brutuzas were destroyed by the two rays of light they were pierced by.
