Chapter 169 Divine Winged Sword
――[Rapid Flash]
Fiona jumped off the wall, using the explosion of aura she created at the soles of her feet as propulsion.
In an instant, she closed in on the giant king, Nord, who was below her.
"――Get lost, insect!"
Nord, who instantly recognized Fiona as an enemy, didn't flinch and raised his right hand to cast magic.
Thunder Magic――[Thunderclap]
The lightning released from his hand split into multiple bolts, covering a wide area and scorching everything.
The range was vast, with each lightning bolt as thick as a giant tree. The speed of the lightning was incredibly fast, and Fiona, who couldn't use [Skywalk Rapid Flash] yet, would need some time to dodge it in mid-air.
But there was no time for that.
"――――."
However, there was no need to dodge.
――[Skywalk]
Fiona kicked the air, accelerating her movement.
Where was she heading?
Straight towards Nord, charging into the approaching lightning bolts.
However, just as the lightning was about to engulf her, Fiona curled up her body in mid-air, using the momentum of her acceleration to spin around.
Her body was surrounded by 6 pairs of 12 wings.
My unique sword technique [Divine Winged Sword]――[Divine Winged Barrier]
The contact with the lightning was only for an instant. And in that instant, it was impossible for [Thunderclap] to pierce through Fiona's sturdy heavenly wings.
"Wh――."
In an instant, Nord's eyes widened as he saw the enemy who had pierced through the lightning and flown out.
As he tried to move his right arm to counter the enemy's approach, Fiona's body, which had been repeatedly falling and accelerating from atop the wall, collided with Nord at an incredible speed, like a cannonball.
The force of the collision remained, and Fiona plunged her twin "Silver Peak" into Nord's head――near the right temple.
"Ggh...!?"
The impact of Fiona landing with her sword caused Nord's head to wobble as if it had been struck.
On the other hand, the "Silver Peak," enveloped in a calm and dense aura, easily pierced through Nord's hard skull.
Immediately after, Fiona unleashed sword techniques from both swords.
Sword techniques――[Heavy Blast Blade, Double Fang Ice Blast]
The aura imbued with Ice and Snow attributes spread through the sword and went wild inside Nord's skull, then exploded.
Just as the thick, hard skull was about to shatter from the inside, Fiona kicked Nord's head and jumped back.
...Explosion.
A deafening explosion echoed a moment later. As Fiona jumped through the air, she observed the damage her attack had dealt.
"————!? What's taking so long!!"
And she couldn't help but curse.
Nord's head was blown away on the right side, and its surface was frozen in a way that refused to regenerate. It was a gruesome sight, and under normal circumstances, it would be a fatal wound.
However, Nord was no ordinary being.
Among the many guardians of the [God's Remains Labyrinth], only Nord and Ignitor had regeneration abilities that defied dimensions. Even if their heart was pierced or their head was blown away, as long as one of them was intact, they could regenerate. The only way to ensure their defeat was not to blow their head away, but to behead them.
"...You, bastard...!!"
Nord's tilting body refused to fall.
He glared at Fiona with his remaining left eye, trying to grab her with his outstretched right arm.
In response, Fiona jumped high into the air again with [Skywalk], avoiding Nord's right hand――
"Sorry, but I'm in a hurry!!"
She landed back on the spot.
My unique sword technique [Divine Winged Sword]――[Aerial Feather].
It's a small fragment of aura like a feather.
Several Continuous Blades separated from [Divine Winged Sword] and stayed in place, providing a foothold.
However, those small Continuous Blades can't stay standing for long. They can only serve as a foothold for an instant.
But if she scatters many [Aerial Feather] in an instant, she can even take complex steps in mid-air.
Fiona took quick steps in mid-air, swinging her dual swords rapidly and repeatedly.
It was a sword dance.
My unique sword technique――[Flying Blade Renbu: Ice Fang].
Ice blades released in an instant, many times over. They struck Nord's entire body like a sudden rainstorm.
"U, ooooohhhh!!?"
Although Nord was still alive, the effects of having half his head blown off weren't negligible.
Nord, whose movements had become slow, couldn't dodge the falling ice blades.
His massive body was freezing, bit by bit. The blades falling from above increased their power with each strike, thanks to the [Sword Dance] effect――and soon, Nord's entire body was frozen.
He was like a giant ice statue.
Nord stood still, shrouded in cold mist. Yet, he still wasn't dead.
So――,
"――Shatter!!"
As Fiona stepped on the last [Aerial Feather] and spun around, she flapped her divine wings wide, scattering numerous feathers towards Nord.
My unique sword technique――[Divine Winged Sword]――[Feather Blast Dance]
The numerous aura feathers that fell like a bird's wings poured down on Nord, and the next instant, they exploded in a chain reaction. The consecutive explosions created a deafening roar that echoed far and wide.
Nord, engulfed in the explosion, let out a scream of despair, but it was too late――it was crushed to dust and vanished.
However, the restored magical energy dispersed as particles of light, a testament to Nord's existence.
"Unbelievable!? You're too strong, big sis!!"
――It's only been 20 seconds since they engaged the enemy.
Owen and the others, who had just started fighting monsters within the [Seal Temple] grounds, couldn't help but cry out in surprise at Nord's sudden disappearance.
