Chapter 163 Painless Fear

 

 

While carrying the Doggan Staff, Haruna leaped forward in an instant as if she was sliding forward. On the way, she perfectly saw through the long sword and slammed her fist into Prince’s face. Her movements were smooth even though there’s the weight of her Doggan Staff. And then, she was quite serious in her punch.

 

(……Heavy)

 

Not the Doggan Staff, but Prince. Haruna’s fist splendidly hit his face, but the response was strange. Prince didn’t recoil backward that much and it didn’t feel like she hit a human being. It was as if she hit a stone giant at the Gibeon Ruins.

 

―――― Whoosh!

 

「Wah.」

 

Haruna evaded the sword that was swung at her. Even though Prince was hit directly by Haruna’s serious fist, he launched a counterattack with his sword immediately after. Something is strange. To answer this question, Haruna seriously hit Prince in his abdomen with her palm. She stepped on the stage and hit him as if piercing the sky, trying to make him fly away as much as possible.

 

「Hah!」

「――!?」

 

Prince’s feet left the ground. On the other hand, Haruna’s footprints that kicked the stage remain deep in the stage. Rather than kicking, it was as if she was trying to destroy it.

 

(…I knew it.)

 

Prince, who received a strong attack from Haruna, floated up about one meter and then retreated. However, Prince’s face is not distorted in pain and his gaze is looking at Haruna as it is.

 

(I was trying to make him vomit, but he is calm even after receiving it directly… The attack from outside and from inside has no effect. A thick magic power is covering him. There’s no mistaking it that it’s the support from Shishō. Judging from Shishō’s personality, I can assume so… Is it the same magic that Chinatsu-chan used in the previous match?)

 

By unleashing an attack that can shake the internal organs, Haruna analyzed that the current Prince has an extraordinary enhancement. Also, she guessed another thing.

 

(And then, that weight is also troublesome. I attacked him directly with about twice the power of the kick when I sent away Dry-san, but he only floated that much. I wonder if Shishō is manipulating Nevel-san’s weight from the passage?)

 

Haruna’s guess is correct. Deris gave Prince the magic of a remote-controlled version of Gravi to change his weight according to the situation. The sword he is holding is as light as a feather, but if it hit, it would be as powerful as a large rock being swung at that speed. Even when Haruna’s palm attack hit him, he was supposed to be blown away far to the sky, but he floated only one meter.

 

「… I understood it after experiencing it directly. Both of you and that Deris are amazing.」

「Shishō is amazing, but I’m not. In fact, my serious attack didn’t seem to work.」

「No, it’s more than enough. Without Deris’s help, I would have been knocked out by that blow. Even if not, I would have been out of the stage. You are really a big deal.」

 

Prince readied his longsword again.

 

「But even so, I’m still going to win the ma――!?」

 

Even though he’s still in the middle of his talk, readying his sword means the signal to start for Haruna. An elbow strike, stronger than the first blow, struck Prince precisely between his nose and upper lip, the so-called philtrum, and his upper body was greatly bent back. The philtrum is one of the key points of human beings and he may have difficulty breathing if he receives a strong impact. But of course, Deris’s Alma Divine Bless covered this spot as well. Prince was not directly damaged, but he was more surprised to find that Haruna’s elbow was right in front of him.

 

(So fast! But, now it’s my turn!)

 

As usual, Prince was not blown away by the force of the blow and he was able to keep his footing. The counterattack of Prince’s sword was surprisingly fast that Haruna, who had just attacked, couldn’t avoid it. Therefore, she decided to ward it off.

 

「Wha, ah!?」

 

Haruna parried the long sword with aiki without using her right arm. The longsword was blown away together with Prince, and he collided to the stage from the head. The upper half of his face is buried in the stage, but he seems to be undamaged.

 

(What did she do to me from such a position!? However, she touched my sword…!)

 

「Uh…!?」

 

Haruna touched the blade of the longsword only for a moment. Even so, it was enough time for the lightning of the Purple Lightning Magic 『Electric Enchant』, which Prince applied to his long sword, to reach her. Then, the lighting ran through Haruna’s entire body.

 

(For me, who has just mastered the Purple Lightning Magic, this Electric Enchant is the best magic. Once touched, her whole body will become stiff due to paralysis. In the meantime, I will attack――!?)

 

Just as Prince was about to get his buried face out of the stage, he received a strong impact on his back. He tried to turn around to see what was going on, but something was pressed his head to the stage so he couldn’t turn around. And that was because Haruna trampled the back of his head and his dominant arm that’s holding his sword, making him sink deeper into the stage. However, the only thing he knew was that Haruna had done something to him.

 

(W-Why can she move!? I’m sure she was hit by my lightning…!)

 

Haruna is standing there as if nothing had happened. The Doggan Staff she is carrying has the ability to negate the magic power emitted by anyone other than Haruna. Since Deris forbade her to let it go, she’s holding it with her right hand and carrying it on her shoulder. Because of it, the effect of Electric Enchant was negated.

 

「I’m sorry, Nevel-san. I’m going to end this soon.」

 

Then, Prince feels a chill runs down his spine. He knows this feeling. It’s the bloodlust that he felt from Haruna before her match with Dry. He has been feeling it slightly ever since the match started, but now it’s more intense.

 

「Ah, this is bad…」

 

Whether unconsciously or on purpose, Deris muttered so. Before Karua could react to his words, the biggest roaring sound of the day reverberated at the venue. To describe it in words, it’s similar to a rumble in the ground and it was resounding in the heart. And then, that roaring sound began to resound over and over again.

 

「H-Hey! Is that okay!? Is he really going to be okay!?」

 

Karua shouted in a scream-like voice.

 

「Aah, yep. The fact that Haru went that far is, in a way, proof of her trust in me. This old man is filled with emotion…」

「It’s not the time to be deeply moved, do your job seriously! Don’t take out your handkerchief and wave it to Haruna!」

 

Toward the fallen Prince, Haruna was stomping her foot over and over again. She didn’t give him time to fight back, and she was doing it with all of her might, packed with killing intent. The weight of the Doggan Staff was added as power, making the repeated kick more intense. It is unclear whether the prince is facing up or down anymore. His eyes, jaw, neck, abdomen―― everything is being kicked, and the stage is being smashed by the impact through Prince. Thanks to Deris’s Alma Divine Bless, there’s almost no damage on him. No, it’s equal to no damage. Normally, each of those attacks is enough to kill him. Even though there’s no damage, receiving it over and over again without being able to resist is making his mind dyed in fear. Now is okay, but is there a guarantee that he will be okay with the next one? What if when he received the next one, his body――

 

「―― O-Out of the stage. Nevel Faji is out of the stage…!」

 

The whole body of Prince touched the ground under the stage and Harua stood upright in the form of trampling him. For better or worse, the stage was broken in half before the spirit of Prince could be broken.
