Re Istode : Things that kitsune girl do in another world - Chapter 167

As the Six Arms Scourge attacked, three weapons – two purple swords and a purple ax – swung simultaneously. Each swing of those weapons is supported by speed and strength beyond human reason.

If a knight or even an ordinary person fended off or even received those attacks directly, their bodies would be destroyed or split apart so easily, in a second!

As for, Vier – a young man once named The Mad Azure Dragon – he dodges those weapons flawlessly. He moved his body swiftly as the weapons were ten centimeters away from him.

The Six Arms Scourge’s attacks were fast but Vier’s movements were faster. It can be said that of all the people and Scourge on this battlefield, he was the fastest. And not only that, but he was also the strongest.

Now, how can this young man – who is only eighteen years old – have such extraordinary power? How could he deal with a Scourge that could flatten an entire city alone? Why wasn’t he hurt in the slightest when fighting against that Scourge?

The story of how extraordinary this young man was, began from the moment when he was nine years old. At that time, the village where he lives peacefully was attacked by Monsters Stamped. Almost everyone in the village died and Vier was one of the survivors. And someone could say, he was the savior for those survivors.

He became a savior after finding the Azure Sword inside the ruins of an ancient temple, not far from his village.

Getting into the ruins of the ancient temple, accidentally finding the Azure Sword, which happened after Vier was escorted and saved by his elder sister, Lylian.

Lylian and Vier initially want to take refuge in the ruins of an ancient temple after being forced to abandon their parents who are trying to block the monsters that hunt and want to eat them.

The two kids made it to where they were going. However, a monster also managed to catch up with them.

Caught in a situation where only one of them could survive, Lylian didn’t hesitate to save her brother by making herself a bait to attract the monster’s attention.

Lylian managed to save her brother but as its payment, she died.

On the other hand, Vier who was desperately trying to find a way out of the ruins of the ancient temple to save her older sister found the Azure Sword.

Then, after he made it out with the sword, he found Lylian already dead.

In his grief, he promised revenge for his older sister.

And yes, using the Azure Sword and the power it bestowed, Vier killed the monsters that attacked his village.

His revenge was done but he wasn’t relieved.

His grief becomes anger and hatred when he knows that his older sister and parents will never come back.

Vier decides to kill all the monsters in the world.

It was the naïve dream of a little boy who didn’t know about the world he lived in. He didn’t know, killing all monsters in the world was a dream that would never come true.

But, thanks to that purpose, he became strong.

The tens of thousands of monsters he killed using the Azure Sword made his level rise rapidly. He had crossed the limit of normal people and he wasn’t aware, his journey to kill all the monsters made him a monster himself.

Yes, vier became a monster.

His life of constantly killing monsters every day for six years and never once stopped, made his mind grow in the wrong direction and made him half crazy. Slayings the monsters were the purpose of his life. Blood is spilled wherever he goes. Death surrounds him.

In the end, Azure Sword left Vier.

That was a story about how Vier became strong. As for the story of how he became a human again, it happened when he met Gravius, became part of his Familia, and then meet Anna.

Now, back to this moment, when Vier fought against the Six Arms Scourge.

The golden-haired young man swung his sword to the best of his ability. That makes the attacks he launched becomes accurate, unexpected, and deadly.

In their thirteen-minute fight, Vier gave the Six Arms Scourge dozens of severe wounds. However, all that wasn’t enough to kill the Scourge. It heals the wounds in seconds.

When viewed from another perspective, its regeneration tells people that the Six Arms Scourge was comparable with Vier.

Swush! Swush!

The Six Arms Scourge’s attacks came to destroy Vier, again. The young man who saw the coming of danger with his blue eyes moved his body to swing his sword and parried those attacks.

Flash of light and sparks was created when their weapon hit each other.

Unfortunately, the Scourge’s attacks never destroyed its target but always destroyed anything after it missed. The ground cracked, split, and obliterated, as did all the Scourge around them.

The swords, axes, and hammers belonging to the Six Arms Scourge knew no comrades or opponents. They existed to destroy everything.

“Oryaaa!” A terrifying scream that shook the heart of who heard it, voiced by three mouths that were in the head of the Six Arms Scourge.

The three pairs of the monster’s eyes became redder than before. Its huge, muscular, dark purple body shook violently as it stared at Vier sharply.

The Scourge was furious.

Why can’t its attacks hit this little human? What’s going on? Six Arms Scourge wondered as it made wild, blind, and out-of-control swings.

Yes, this Scourge has thoughts and egos.

It was different from the other Scourge who lived just to follow their instincts. This happened because its host, container which is three Adventurers still retained some of their consciousness.

This type of Scourge is the strongest Scourge.

Evil Gods were also in such a state. However, since the gods had a strong mind, the Scourge that infect them became part of their strength.

The Scourge doesn’t take over their reasoning. The Scourge reinforces their negative emotions. The Scourge makes them destroyers according to their desires.

“[Stance; Defensive Sword Movements]”

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Vier fended off a barrage of Six Arms Scourge attacks.

From a distance, flashes of light and sparks of fire were only the things that the knights, mercenaries, and adventurers saw from their exchange. Most of them couldn’t see the movements of Vier’s sword and Six Arms Scourge’s weapons. Only a few people could see it.

Their battle can only be described as extraordinary.

The speed and power of each of their attacks had broken through the border which was referred to as reasonable. They bring destruction.

Of course, no one who was still sane wanted to approach them. They would die if they did.

As for those who wanted to help the young man, they held back. They understand they’re not strong enough. Giving help without enough strength will only make things worse.

Vier launched his counterattacks shortly after a gap appeared in the Six Arms Scourge attacks.

As before, his attacks could cut and do great damage to the Six Arms Scourge. However, his sword couldn’t cut off the Scourge’s main body.

Six Arms Scourge made a good defense. The Scourge could block Vier’s sword from reaching its target – which is its main body – by relying on six weapons. However, that didn’t mean that the Scourge defenses were impenetrable.

Vier took a deep breath. Energy flowed and filled his entire body. The young man blasted that energy as he said, “[Stance; Defense Crusher]”

Using that Arte, his sword swings became much stronger and heavier than the previous one. Therefore, the Six Arms Scourge’s weapons were thrown every time it used one of its weapons to hit Vier’s sword.

Swuss! Swuss!

Four weapons were thrown deep into the Scourge’s rearguard. The weapons destroyed the Scourge that in the place where they will land.

Clang! Clang!

Their exchange continued and now, Vier was putting much more pressure on the Six Arms Scourge than before. Nevertheless, Vier felt his attack was still not enough. So, he used another Arte.

“[Stance; Lightning Swings]

Four sword swings that were extremely fast cut off three of Six Arms Scourge’s arms. The Scourge’s defense was getting thinner and its attacks became weaker.

Now, Vier can do great damage to the monster using ordinary attacks easily. Unfortunately, the Scourge’s regeneration was able to heal those damages quickly.

Vier didn’t want this fight to last much longer. He wanted to get it done as quickly as possible to help everyone. So, “[Shinning; The Six Cut]”

A deep red light enveloped Vier’s sword.

Everyone who saw their fight didn’t know when the young man’s sword moved. They only knew the Six Arms Scourge was being cut into small pieces instantly and then died.

With the powerful enemy he was fighting dead, Vier began to help the weak positions in the battle formation created by Celestena.

The fight continued for half an hour before finally, all the Scourge was successfully annihilated.

The knights, militias, mercenaries, and adventurers shouted their happiness at today’s victory. They managed to defend Tatio and save the citizens.

They succeeded but the source of this attack remained untouched. If they didn’t do something to it, the Scourge would return to attack the city again within a few days.

More than that, an unknown danger was observing them.

Now, the danger was smiling.
