Activating the ability of his Sacred Gear, Cyan Light Arrow, the samurai Giant’s hand gleamed with a colossal divine bow. Under Tenraku’s control, the Giant gripped the bow, pulled the string with force, and with a swift sound, released a massive Light Arrow into the sky.
With a deafening explosion, the colossal Light Arrow burst at a high altitude, transforming into tens of thousands of arrows that began to rain down!
Seeing the sky almost covered with the dense arrow rain, Rias and her girls couldn’t help but feel their scalps tingle—
“Quick, dodge!”
All the girls frantically tried to evade, but where could they hide?
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!!!
Flames surged into the sky. The entire battlefield and forest within the alternate space were not spared. Every inch of land endured the merciless bombardment of the arrow rain!
“Ah… Aaaaaaahhhhhh…”
“What… what incredible power!”
The host, Naud Gamigin was shocked and felt his lips go dry.
With dust and mist filling the air, there was no longer any trace of a battlefield or forest within the alternate space. It had all turned into a wasteland of ruins and it was as if it had experienced the apocalypse…
Everyone watching was deeply shaken. What kind of monstrous being had the Phenex family brought into the world?!!
“Cough, Cough… Everyone, are you okay?” Pushing aside a massive rock, Rias quickly called out to her other comrades.
“We… we’re fine.”
Akeno and the others also climbed out of the rubble one by one, but each of them looked disheveled and dirtied. Just a moment ago, they really thought they were about to die. That scoundrel Tenraku really went all out!
“Shirone, are you alright?” Kuroka asked gently while leaning over Koneko-Chan.
“I’m fine, Nee Sama.”
With lingering fear, Koneko-Chan knew that her Nee Sama had protected her just now. Warmth welled up in her heart.
“That’s good…”
Smiling, Kuroka gently stroked Koneko-Chan’s forehead. A trace of fresh blood appeared at the corner of her mouth, then she turned into dust and disappeared without a trace.
“Rias-Sama’s Pawn, one member, eliminated!”
The host’s voice echoed, leaving Rias and her girls momentarily stunned.
Kuroka actually withdrew from the fight?
Although her rank was just a Pawn, when Rias made a contract with Kuroka, she had to expend four of her pieces. Kuroka’s strength was also among the top in all of Rias’s Peerage. While the earlier arrow storm attack was terrifying, Kuroka should have had no problem protecting herself with her strength. So, why…
Looking at Koneko-Chan, who was still sitting dazed on the ground, Rias and her girls instantly understood.
“Nee Sama… Kuroka Nee Sama…”
Standing up, Koneko-Chan had also realized what had happened. Her gaze was vacant.
Then, in the next moment—
Boom!!!
Ferocious Spirit Qi erupted from Koneko-Chan’s body!
“K-Koneko…” Rias tried to speak, but the sudden surge of Spirit Qi from Koneko-Chan made her tremble.
Ignoring Rias, Koneko-Chan stared expressionlessly at the towering Giant in the distance—
“Senior Tenraku, I will defeat you!” Her voice was low, but it conveyed the determination in the girl’s heart at this moment.
“So scary, so scary. Is Koneko-Chan angry?”
“Do you want to avenge Kuroka? Do you want to avenge your Nee Sama? Then come at me with all you’ve got!”
“HāHāHā…”
A hearty laugh. At this moment, Tenraku seemed like a full-fledged villain. However, before he could continue, Koneko-Chan had already shot out like a cannonball, and then her fist struck the samurai Giant’s chest!
Boom!!!
The thunderous explosion abruptly halted Tenraku’s laughter, and the samurai Giant staggered back. Despite Koneko-Chan’s small and delicate frame, the force she exerted was tremendous!
“Nee Sama… Kuroka, Nee Sama…”
“She protected me…”
“I will defeat you! Defeat you!! Defeat you!!!”
In a complete frenzy, Koneko-Chan unleashed a barrage of punches. Everyone watched in silence, witnessing a petite girl taking on a towering Giant.
In terms of size, the samurai Giant was hundreds of times larger than Koneko-Chan. Yet, with her petite body and tiny fists, Koneko-Chan relentlessly drove the Giant back and countless cracks appeared on its sturdy frame.
“Ohhhhhhh!!!”
What a courageous and beautiful girl! The crowd erupted in the warmest cheers for her.
However—
Once Koneko-Chan’s strength was depleted, she was seized by the samurai Giant.
“Koneko-Chan, the power you just unleashed really surprised me.”
“When we return home, I’ll make a sincere apology for what happened earlier. For now, just take a rest…”
Six blood-red Magatama appeared in the Giant’s eyes. They turned slowly, and Koneko-Chan’s gaze flickered before she lost consciousness.
By the way, Tenraku made Koneko-Chan lose consciousness by using the “Demonic Words of an Angel” to interfere with her mind. It’s not some kind of “Sharingan” or the like.
As for why those magatamas appeared in the Giant’s eyes, Tenraku claimed he just wanted to play around with them.
“Rias-sama’s Rook, one member, eliminated!”
As the host’s voice resounded, countless male Devils in the audience pounded their chests and cursed.
That despicable Kamiya Tenraku, even such a brave, beautiful, and adorable girl like Koneko-Chan was tormented by him. Why don’t you just die?!!
In contrast to the male Devils’ indignation, Rias and her girls were equally enraged and shocked. Not only Kuroka, but they had lost Koneko-Chan too!
“Holy Spear, pierce through it!”
Ascending into the air, Akeno’s “True Longinus” extended rapidly in her hand, and then pierced into the samurai Giant’s body. If it were the former wielder of the Holy Spear, Cao Cao, he could have easily made a hole in the Giant’s body.
However, even after exerting all her strength, Akeno only managed to create a crack. It was impossible to go further. It couldn’t be helped. After all, Akeno was still far behind Cao Cao in terms of power, and she had only obtained the Holy Spear a few days ago. Using it to confront Tenraku was simply impossible.
“Akeno, you dare to stab even your own man. You’re really a wicked woman.”
“Come, feel this terror and despair.”
With a smirk on his face, Tenraku controlled the samurai Giant, raising a palm toward Akeno in the distance.
“Akeno!!!”
Rias and her girls leaped into the air, intending to rescue her. Akeno’s eyes widened, feeling a suffocating chill locking onto her.
With a swift sound, a massive energy sphere shot out from the Giant’s palm, tearing through the void and colliding with Akeno.
“Ahhhhhhhhhhh…”
In the end, Rias and her girls were a step too late, only able to watch as Akeno was propelled away by the colossal energy sphere, disappearing from view.
“Rias-sama’s Queen, one member, eliminated!”
