Chapter 155: Super Magic Phantom Giant God Modegal



Chapter 155: Super Magic Phantom Giant God Modegal

The battle had ended.

I couldn\'t see any of Zarxis\' death kin.

The angels were flying around, maybe they were looking for their remnants.

I looked around from the deck of the sky ship to see where Alphos was.

Then I found him standing on the deck of his sky ship.

I brought my ship closer to his and then leapt into his ship.

「Yo Rena. You finally decided to come?」

Alphos greeted me with a smile on his face, still in his Holy Knight attire.

Well, that was only natural I guess. My subordinate Valkyrie, who I placed on Alphos\' side, informed me that the battle had ended.

「It seems Zarxis is really strong, his child was also quite troublesome.」

I had seen it in a video and now knew that Zarxis, who regained his power, was really powerful.

Even Alphos might have lost if he fought Zarxis till the end.

Alas, such a thing didn\'t happen.

Zarxis suddenly went after Kuna and entrusted Alphos to his kin.

Alphos, who got disturbed by the child of the reaper, couldn\'t go after Zarxis.

「Yeah, he\'s too tenacious.」

Alphos looked to his side, I followed his line of sight.

He was looking at a mountain-like carcass of a giant centipede.

The Devilish Poisonous Prince, Zagero.

Though his intelligence and magical power was quite low, I heard that he was among the strongest of the children of the reaper in terms of physical strength and defense.

Though he was weaker than Alphos, it took quite a while for Alphos to defeat Zagero due to the latter\'s tenacious vitality.

Even after he died, the carcass of Zagero released poison that contaminated the soil.

It might be really difficult to purify the land.

What a troublesome guy.

「Well then, he wanted to go after her but it might be too late. She seemed to have snatched something important from the Reaper alas… It\'s enough as long as she\'s safe.」

Said Alphos while looking at Ruvania\'s land.

I also looked in the same direction as him.

I could see the situation over there from Kuna\'s eyes.

The fight between Kuroki against Zarxis was about to begin.

Zarxis was strong alas, I didn\'t have to worry about Kuroki.

The reason? Because my knight was just that powerful.

He wouldn\'t be defeated by the likes of the Reaper.

I looked up to the sky as I thought so.

◆Dark Knight; Kuroki

I fought against Zarxis in the air.

Zarxis\'s figure was that of a giant bat with the lower-half of a spider, there were nine eyes on his face.

It was the same grotesque figure as he had shown back then above the death capital.

But, this place wasn\'t the death capital. It wouldn\'t be the same as back then.

「No way, you recovered from the shadow of mother…」

Zarxis spewed something pale from his mouth.

A face appeared from that something pale.

It was an evil spirit called Larva.

A larva was a mere shadow of someone’s form with only their strong grudge left behind. Zarxis kept those Larvas in his belly to be used later.

I could hear a grieving voice from the mouth of his abdomen. As if inside Zarxis\' belly was the purgatory itself.

「Unfortunately, I can\'t waste my time anymore.」

Nor could I afford to do that, not when Kuna and co were fighting nearby.

That\'s why I had to exert myself more than usual.

In the first place, I couldn\'t expect to always fight in perfect condition.

Even if I\'m on the verge of death, I have to fight when push comes to shove.

There were still some remains of the shadow of Nargol in my body.

Alas, Kuna and co had bought me enough time to rest.

That\'s why I would do something about the rest.

Zarxis\' red eyes looked at me.

It seems he was so pissed off to the point of wanting to tear me limb from limb.

「Humph! BEGONE FROM THIS WORLD! COME FORTH THOUSAND NEVER EATER BLADE!」

Numerous spheres appeared around Zarxis, facing toward us.

Openings filled with mouths appeared on the surface of those spheres, inside those mouths was seemingly everlasting darkness.

The weak point of the soul of those ghouls was light.

Alas, I couldn\'t use light attribute magic.

Thus I had to use another method to cope with it.

「O DRAGONS! LEND ME YOUR POWER! DRAGON ENERGY, ACTIVATE! DRAGONIC WAVE!」

I activated the power of the dragons and unleashed a powerful wave.

Hungry souls were an amalgamation of negative life force, that\'s why a powerful wave filled with life force would erase them.

「HOW ABOUT THIS! DARK KNIGHT! OMNI-DIRECTIONAL PURGATORY SWORD!」

Zarxis\'s screw sword grew longer and attacked from all directions like a whip.

The Galient Sword was a flexible sword that could stretch and shrink.

Since it was a weapon that could be used both as a sword and a whip, escaping from it was a bone breaking job, yet the target would be tortured to death if they stayed at one place.

But, that only applied if the opponent had a weaker weapon, my demon sword was stronger.

This sword, the Blood Sword (Demon Sword of Venous Blood) was the personification of Modes\' Black Flame.

It was a weapon tempered by Nargol, the Goddess of Destruction herself, making it the ultimate weapon in this world.

The crimson red pattern on the sword\'s blade started to glow, and wriggled around as it took in black flame.

「PIERCING RED LIGHT-DARK FLAME SWORD!」

When I swung my sword, the black flame that was contained within the red light stretched  from the sword\'s blade and annihilated the omni-directional attack.

I closed in the distance right at that very moment.

「NOT SO FAST! DARK KNIGHT!」

Zarxis\' Galient sword shrunk back and its tip pointed at me.

When our swords clashed, the one who got pushed back was Zarxis.

But, I couldn\'t use this chance to go after him.

Reason being Zarxis\' spider legs pointed at me.

Those sharp looking spider legs look like a reaper\'s scythe to me.

He deftly used his own legs to attack me.

But, that was it, the only thing that increased was the number of weapons, and I could take them down with ease.

I parried the leg that came from the right, and cut down the one from the left.

I raised my demon sword overhead to block the galient sword that came from above, flicked it off, and continued in one smooth rotation to block the two legs that came from below and pushed at him.

「KUUH! WHAT A MONSTER! MY KINS! KEEP HIM BUSY!」

Zarxis shouted angrily and glared at me while regenerating his left leg that got cut down by me.

Why, though?

My body felt so light. It felt as if the shadow of Nargol that suppressed me before had also given its power to me.

The army of reapers rushed at me.

Did he try to buy time to adjust his stance?

Though no amount of specters or vampires could stop me, they did buy the time that Zarxis needed to get away from me.

Since I judged that it was too dangerous to keep chasing him, I returned to Kuna and co\'s place.

「Awesome! You\'ve become even stronger than before, Kuroki!」

Kuna rushed at me with a delighted face.

Yeah, I certainly became even stronger than before. It felt as if the lethargic feeling until a while ago had never happened.

「Are you by chance, taking in the shadow of Nargol-sama, RibbitRibbitRibbit? Such an unreasonable man. No wonder you recovered faster than my estimation.」

Heqat shook her head in bewilderment as she came to us.

She didn\'t even try to hide her shock.

「I think he\'ll go all out after this, can you help me, Heqat-dono?」

Zaffrada and co were already gathered around Zarxis.

They were prepared for an all-out war.

If that was the case, we had to do the same.

Glorious roared, Guno and co were also riding their wyverns, prepared for another round of fighting.

「Sure am, RibbitRibbitRibbit. I don\'t think we’ll lose after you make a comeback.」

Replied Heqat while giving a signal to her kin.

Seeing her signal, the Empusa warriors and toadmen shaman had also prepared for another round of battle.

「Kuroki, Kuna and Tibel will fight with you too.」

「Roge~r. Kuna-sama.」

Kuna and Tibel also joined in.

These two were more suited for elegant tea time than battle.

Alas, they were reliable allies thanks to their support magic.

「Yeah. I\'m relying on you, Kuna.」

Kuna looked really delighted when I told her so while patting her head.

「YOUR EXCELLENCY! SOMETHING STRANGE IS HAPPENING ON THE REAPER\'S SIDE!」

Guno shouted in panic.

When I looked at Zarxis and co, I saw that there was an outbreak of mist-like things around them.

That mist-like thing was something that I had seen before. It was the amalgamation of ghosts that covered the Death Capital.

「Oh my, this one is bad ne~ws. He summoned Modegal.」

A clown whose body was in tatters appeared while laughing.

「Clown, what do you mean by summoning Modegal?」

Kuna asked instead of me.

「Listen, Kuna-sama. The ruler of death can summon the death capital anywhere in this land of Ruvania. It used a lot of magical power though. Kyahahaha.」

Clown explained to us.

Upon a closer look, I saw Zaffrada and co transferring their magical power to Zarxis. It seems he gathered the magical power of his kin and children.

「That seems to be the case, Clown. Ribbit. I\'ve never expected this kind of situation too…」

I could see something behind the phantom mist.

It was the death capital of Modegal that I had seen before. I had never expected that he could summon an entire capital.

「BEHOLD! DARK KNIGHT! BUT, THIS IS JUST THE APPETIZER! BEHOLD, THE TRUE POWER OF MODEGAL!」

Zarxis\' laugh resounded.

Modegal\'s form transformed along with that laugh.

The structure of the death capital transformed into a humanoid form, it gained human-like limbs.

There were feelers growing out from its body.

And then, Modegal transformed into a giant whose height pierced the sky.

「No way…」

I was speechless due to shock.

I mean, the city before me literally transformed into a giant undead.

「HOW\'S THAT, DARK KNIGHT!? THIS IS THE SUPER MAGIC PHANTOM GIANT GOD MODEGAL! IT\'LL TRAMPLE YOU TO DEATH!」

Zarxis sneered at me.

The giant covered in phantom mist stood before our skyboat.

I felt cold sweat running down my back.
