Chapter 359 I’ll Admit It
Having dealt a heavy blow to Lilyvia, both physically and mentally, Haru and the others took their time on the ground, looking for their next move. They don’t charge at her carelessly even though they have a chance. They don’t mind even if she doesn’t come down from the sky. After all, they are capable of fighting at long range while Lily mainly fights at close range. Even if Haru can’t use her Unique Skill, this development is rather what she wants.
Haru took out iron balls from her pouch and applied magic on them, while Chinatsu stacked up barriers in preparation for an attack. Touko shot her ki as bullets, and Hund-kun threw the steel rubble generated during the battle. Thus, the situation further leaned toward Lily’s disadvantage.
「Don’t get carried ugh…!」
「I don’t really understand, but it seems to be working really well!」
「Umu, now is our chance! Let’s keep attacking her!」
Touko and Hund-kun don’t know about the true power of Chinatsu’s Unique Skill, but for now, they prioritize the battle situation over that. Anyway, they are focusing on attacking Lily. Being in the worst mood and condition, Lily somehow managed to dodge these attacks while holding her mouth with her hand. However, she wouldn’t last long. She can’t attack, and she can only maintain her status quo by focusing on evasion. The longer it takes, the worse her condition will be.
「F-Fuu…!」
With the preparedness of getting attacked to some degree, Lily rushed straight up. Without slowing down at all, she held up her hands and thrust them into the steel ceiling. Then, what came out was a lump of steel that has been scooped out with all her might. With it as a shield, which is many times the size of her own body, Lily began to swoop down toward the ground.
「I-It feels like she has no regard to her appearance, huh….」
「The more Lilyvia-dono moves violently, the worse her condition will be….」
Actually, Lily’s eyes are somewhat teary during the falling. Indeed, she wouldn’t get attacked by Haru and the others until she lands on the ground. But at the same time, her act becomes the final blow to her condition. Normally, that wouldn’t be a problem for her, but she is currently in the worst condition that she could vomit at any moment. It’s like putting a drunken person on the world’s fastest roller coaster. Even she will have teary eyes no matter how perfect she acts as the Great Eight Demons.
「It’s falling!」
「Watch out! Everyone, focus on evasion!」
「I know!」
「You should watch out for the scattered debris too!」
The lump of steel was damaged until it was almost destroyed by the all-out attack. Still, it seems that it could accomplish its duty as a shield until it collided with the ground. While the four people evacuated in all directions, it crashed in the center, creating a thunderous sound and a cloud of dust. Then, the lump of steel was finally destroyed at this time.
「F-Fufufufufuurp…. Y-You guys aren’t bad, huh. I-I never thought that I would be pushed to this point, ugh….」
Within the cloud of dust, I could hear Lily trying her best to speak the lines. I can’t see her yet, but I can tell from her voice that she’s really doing her best. I’m in a position to cheer for Haru and the others, but seeing her in that condition, I can’t help but cheer for her in my mind. Chinatsu’s stress, it’s super effective.
「Phew…. That’s why, I’ll admit it. You guys are strong enough to be my enemies…! So, I will stop minding about my appearance!」
At that moment, there was a blast the cloud of dust was dispersed all at once. Lily, who was in the center, appeared in the form of slamming her fist on the ground.
「Lily-shishō, you finally resolved yourself, huh! Now that you are not going to mind about your appearance, I wonder what kind of monster you will turn… hm?」
Touko probably wanted to exchange words before the end of the game. However, her words were cut off on the way. After all, she froze the moment she saw Lily. On the other hand, I, Nell, Alezel and the others are opening our eyes wide. Haru and the others, who are on the battlefield, are also opening their eyes wide.
「Suya~」
With her fist slammed on the ground, Lily is sleeping with her eyes closed. No matter how you look at it, her sleeping face is not that of her perfect mode, but that of the useless maid, which we’re used to seeing. The face that was filled with anguish earlier has disappeared, and she is drooling happily.
「Uhee, it’s the first time I see Lily-han like that ever since she became the Great Eight Demons….」
「I can’t even say fuhaha. I, very confused.」
「I-I’ve heard about it before, but is that really Lilyvia-dono!?」
It seems that the shock was greater for the Great Eight Demons who didn’t know about Lily’s useless maid state. After all, she always acted as the perfect Great Eight Demons in front of the other Great Eight Demons. But why did she stop acting now and become a useless maid? But why did she stop acting now and become a bad maid? The perfect Lily was supposed to be better in terms of combat power….
「…… I’ve got a bad feeling about it.」
「N-Nell?」
「Everyone, be careful. Lily-senpai seems to be full of openings, but that’s not true.」
「Geh, even Haru…!?」
Nell made a serious expression while biting her thumbnail. Similarly, on the battlefield, Haru repositioned her Doggan Staff and is wary of Lily. Since these two people, who have absolute sense in battle, say so, I can’t help but be wary.
However, I can’t give advice during the battle…. Kuh, I’m somewhat feeling uneasy. What are the troublesome points of the useless maid Lily? She’s lazier than you can imagine? Not waking up in the morning and basically waking up in the afternoon? No, no, those are troublesome points in daily life. In battle, there’s no need to be wary of―― hmm?
「Deris? Why are you groaning like that?」
「Sleep, sleep, huh…. If I’m not wrong, she has Pleasant Sleep Skill. She’s always been lazy, so her Skill must be top notch. Maybe she’s reducing the stress by sleeping?」
「Ha? Well, hmm… you have a point, but she would be defenseless, right? I mean, she’s sleeping, right?」
「Well, that’s true, but….」
My thoughts and the purpose of Lily’s actions probably match. At least, she won’t have to worry about her condition. However, it’s as Nell said. How is she going to fight against Haru and the others while sleeping soundly like that?
「It’s a waste of time to worry about it! Let’s resume the attack!」
「Y-Yeah!」
I wonder if Haru reached the same conclusion as I did? While keeping their distance, they resumed their bombardment. This time, Chinatsu joined the attackers, and she shot light spears at Lily. The storm of deadly bullets is approaching from all sides of Lily, giving her no place to escape. Then――
「Munya~」
――Along with an idiotic sleep-talk, she splendidly parried all attacks, sometimes dodged them, and she was blowing snot bubble that reduced the sense of urgency. Thus, the deadly bullets flew away and they didn’t even graze Lily.
「H-Haaaaaaa!? What the!? What the hell is that!?」
「No way…. She’s sleeping, right?」
「Is she feigning sleep? No, but, there’s no point in doing so.」
Apparently, everyone has the same impression as me. To be honest, I’m at a loss for words.
「No, Lily-senpai is sleeping. That’s, by any chance…」
「Haruna?」
「The legendary martial art that exists only in fiction―― the sleeping fist!?」
Haru said something while being somewhat excited.
