Chapter 328 Doggan Cannon

 

Haru keeps rotating. She’s single-mindedly concentrating on it as if to say that it’s her way of life.

 

「… A-Are you not done yet?」

 

I couldn’t help but call out so. I don’t know if it’s because of the centrifugal force of the hammer throw, or because the Throwing Skill is applied to such an action, but a little tornado is being formed around Haru as she’s swinging the Doggan Staff. Is that her aim? No, what’s the point of forming something like that?

While Haru is doing this, the beam attack of Zex Body continues. The Tiny Hole, which is being used as a shield, is only going to last a few more seconds, and the enemy’s attack probably won’t stop. Haru’s legs were healed secretly, but is there really a way to break out of this predicament?

 

「DOSSSEEEEIIII!」

 

Just before the small black hole disappeared, Haru threw her Doggan Staff with a loud shout. Yeah, she threw it. When I imagined a hammer throw, I somehow predicted this development. The only unpredictable thing is the power of the thrown Doggan Staff. As for the target, it’s the beam released by Zex Body, of course.

The Doggan Staff, which is shaped like a large halberd, is rotating at high speed. If I have to make an example, it’s like a large boomerang, I think? However, this boomerang is making a tremendous rotating sound like that of a helicopter, and that’s not something that can be made when thrown by human hands. That alone should give you an idea of how this thing is spinning like crazy.

 

「Ooh…!」

 

The Doggan Staff appeared from behind the black hole by breaking through it. Far from slowing down, the power of the jet-black mass was increased when it ferociously collided with the beam. The AI of Zex Body must have felt threatened by the projectile that’s approaching while cutting through the light beam. The body is moving backward while maintaining the attack.

 

――――Gago!

 

During that time, an abnormality somehow occurred in one of the legs. It lost its balance again and the beam was shifted. What happened was that Haru herself was closing in on the body and used her aiki, faster than the Zex Body could retreat and faster than the Doggan staff could approach. Haru’s excellent legs and flawless form were the reason why she was able to arrive faster than her thrown attack. It seems that the Instantaneous Force Skill also worked properly, allowing her to reach her maximum speed in an instant.

""

The shifted beam is firing wildly at the ceiling, and at this rate, it will cause the ceiling to collapse, so please stop. Then, the one that grants my wish is Haru’s Doggan Staff. Taking advantage of this chance that the beam isn’t obstructing it anymore, it collides with the tail of the Zex Body in the middle part while making the usual rotating sound.

 

「Ooh!」

 

The tail of Zex Body was cut off. She was struggling so much against it before, but this time, it was cut off easily. The moment the Doggan Staff touched it, I was convinced that it could be cut off.

 

「I name it Doggan Cannon!」

「D-Doggan Canon…!?」

 

I checked the Doggan Staff once again. Looking closely, I can feel the flow of different magic power from it.

 

「Aah, I see.」

 

In addition to the usual brutal set of deadly poison and super-gravity, she applied one more magic on the Doggan Staff. It’s Abyss Magic level 1, 『Death Scythe』. This magic, which gives an eerie dark aura to the targe, has an effect similar to the Vadarizates that Weerel used in the battle against Hund. In short, it gives a powerful dark attribute and a super powerful slashing attribute. It is a reliable magic that the dark aura becomes the scythe of the god of death and helps to cut the enemy when it comes in contact with the enemy. It sounds as if it has an instant death effect, but unfortunately, it doesn’t have it at this stage.

However, the strength of the Zex Body is so great that the Doggan Staff added with Death Scythe alone wouldn’t have been able to cut it. However, the throwing method used by Haru, the hammer throwing, was somehow combined with the Throwing Skill and Strong Shoulder Skill, and a miracle occurred that it further increased the power!

…… Aah, I was the one who said it, but that explanation is quite forced. Just like Haru’s aiki, this is also beyond my comprehension. I guess it’s easier to feel it than to think about it logically. Anyway, there’s no doubt that the Doggan Cannon is Haru’s greatest offensive ability. Hmm, that’s a very Haru-ish naming sense. Still, the battle isn’t over yet.

The tail was lost, but the main part of the Zex Body is still undamaged. It only lost one of the means of attack. The leg that lost its balance has returned to normal, and there’s no disturbance in the movement. Not caring about the fact that its tail was cut off, Zex Body launched an all-out attack on Haru at his feet.

 

「Kyuin.」

 

It used the front two legs to crush Haru, and when she avoided them, it used the scissors-shaped pressing machine to continue its attack. While dodging the attacks, Haru chose the right timing and put her hands on one of the legs. It wasn’t an attack. She suddenly started a rock-climbing by taking advantage of the unevenness of the leg. Well, she has climbed some of the most famous mountains in the world, so it’s no surprise that she could do it. She sure is very versatile.

 

「To, ho, ha!」

 

It seems that even Zex Body didn’t expect Haru to climb its body, so it’s at a loss how to continue its attack. Those arms that are focused on power probably can’t deal with the petite Haru who’s moving here and there. That’s a good example of how to take advantage of the shortcomings of a giant robot.

The heart of that machine is either in the center of the body or in the head. If Haru can get to that point and destroy it, it will be Haru’s victory and the cleaning will be completed. However, the Doggan Staff, which is the only thing that could effectively hit Zex Body, flew away when the Doggan Cannon was fired. This is where Haru’s adaptability will be tested―― ah.

 

――――Zan!

 

It appeared from the back of Zex Body and tore its right arm from the base. The true identity of that thing is the Doggan Staff that was supposed to have flown away. It seems that I wasn’t wrong when I said that it’s like a boomerang. A boomerang is something that returns to the person who threw it. The Doggan Cannon was no exception, and it returned to Haru with a time lag. Dogaan!, one of Zex Body’s scissors fell with a roaring sound.

 

「I’ve been waiting for you!」

 

Haru jumped from the machine and caught the Doggan Staff that returned with a great result. I’m amazed by her steel mentality that she went to catch such a dangerous thing. Of course, I mean that in a good way. No matter how confident you are in your kinetic vision, no one would be stupid enough to stick their hand into the rotary wing of a helicopter and try to catch it.

Still, Zex Body didn’t just stand by and watch. It used the remaining scissors on his left arm to crush Haru, who just grabbed the Doggan Staff. The movement was so fast that it was already approaching Haru on both sides when she was jumping. Then, a high-pitched sound of metal hitting metal reverberated.

 

「Phew~, that was close!」

「S-She used it as a prop rod!?」

 

Haru used the Doggan Staff in her hand to stop the attack. No matter how hard the scissors try to crush it, the Doggan Staff didn’t yield and endured it. Then, Haru grasped the handle of her Doggan Staff with both hands and began to rotate. After gaining momentum, she flew again and approached Zex Body’s head.
