[Unfavorable Situation]

“C’mon, c’mon, c’mon, c’mon! What’s wrong, ‘Fist’ Saintess! Can you do nothing but defend!? Haah!?”

“Gh…!?”

Thump, thump, thump, thump, thump! Tirna somehow fend off the fierce attacks which came at her like a storm, but a half-mermaid like her whose territory was underwater was naturally at a disadvantage fighting against a pure werewolf like Shangarula on land.

Just then.

“—Haa!”

“Whoops!”

Having evaded Arcadia’s strike, Shangarula,

“Oraa!”

――BANG!

““Kh!?””

Countered by clawing out the ground with his sinister and sharp claw blades.

It was most likely a Sacred Treasure as well.

Whilst he dodged by a narrow margin, with just one ordinary swing, the ground was wholly gouged out.

“Haah, haah… without the strengthening of the Phoenix Seal, fighting against the saints of demi-human races sure is tough…”

“Mm… And losing Zana’s support from the very start makes it even more difficult…”

At the place where the two took a glance at, Magmell was doing her best to treat Zana who was lying unconscious on the ground.

She was inflicted with a severe injury by Shangarula who immediately rushed at her the moment the battle started.

As a close-range combatant, he probably judged that a long-range attacker like her would pose a hindrance to him.

Moreover, it made Magmell be forced to focus on treating her too. Hence, he was able to enjoy the fight with a peace of mind.

It was apparent that he was a shrewd guy, contrary to his look.

And another thing putting them at disadvantage was the lack of support from Exa through the Phoenix Seal.

He was probably putting his all his power into processing Hihiirokane, so he couldn’t afford to share his power with them.

Honestly, these guys really came at the worst timing. But… Arcadia looked behind her while keeping her guard up.

――BANG!

“Guhaa!?”

There Ophir was blown away by Boreios’s blow and crashed into a wall.

◇ ◇

“Dammit… ya shitty muscleman…”

Bringing out her body that was racked with pain out of the rubble, Ophir held up the Holy Axe again, albeit in a weak manner.

Boreios, who was clearly unscathed even at a glance, silently looked down at her and said, “Fumu, is this the extent of the power of the ‘strongest saintess’?”

“Ha, don’t be ridiculous… I was just warming up…”

“Hou, I am relieved to hear that. Because I have only been using thirty-percent of my power.”

“Then get ready to strain yerself… ‘cuz my next move’s gonna be the trump card that I’ve never shown to anyone else…!”

――BOOM!

At that moment, a storm swirled around Ophir, and her body swelled up with cracking sounds.

“Hou? That’s a pretty good fighting spirit. It does seem like I need to strain myself a bit.” Saying that, Boreios stomped on the ground with a thump, and raised his Sacred Treasure aloft with a big motion.

Then.

“—Grand Tempest Break!!”

Ophir, still surrounded by storm, spun her bodies many times, before throwing a strike with all her might and maximum centrifugal force behind it.

“Nuoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!”

In response, Boreios—didn’t held his strength back and unleashed a super-strong blow.

—BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNGGGGGG!!

The two collided head-on, and the impact sank the ground—as a glaring flash spread to the surroundings, Boreios revealed a smile to Ophir who was desperately clenching her teeth and said, “That was a wonderful demonstration, Saintess Ophir. You have done well reaching your current stage with a human body. I genuinely admire you. —However!”

“—!?”

Gugugu, Boreios pushed back Ophir’s strongest strike.

“Ya little…!”

Unwilling to lose, Ophir continued to put all the power she currently possessed into her Combat Art but,

“Nuaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!”

BAM! Without being able to resist, she was sent flying backwards.

“Sh… nh!”

The incarnation of destruction mercilessly closed in on Ophir who was defenseless mid-air, and she forcefully raised her arms.

“It was quite enjoyable, Saintess Ophir. Now you can sleep for a while.”

“““Ophir(-san)!?”””

The handle of the Sacred Treasure that had been swung up was about to be swung down on Ophir’s face—at that time,

――BANG!

“Guoo!?”

“““““—!?”””””

Suddenly, Boreios’s giant body was sent flying backwards, and everyone’s eyes, including Shangarula, went wide.

Then.

――Fwump.

“…Huh?”

Ophir was suddenly hugged by someone, and she looked at the person in a daze.

“—Sorry to have kept you waiting. You can rest now.”

“You…”

Needless to say, the person who was hugging and smiling at her was her husband and the incarnation of fire—Exa.
