Chapter 295: Ox general
Chapter 295: Ox general
After defeating Gyki, we proceeded through the labyrinth. Unlike before, however, there were no traps, no forks in the road.
I just move forward and come to a room. That was enough to let me know that the opponent we are about to fight is strong.
I got some information from Setia and Ix.
"It's a monster with a face like a cow and a human form, carrying a large sword-like weapon"
"It's about twice the size of Master"
I can only think of one half-bull, half-man that is not a Minotaur.
It appeared in the Journey to the West and the existence that Son Goku and others fought...the existence that is also called Heiten Taisei.
Its name is the Bull Demon King. If this prediction is correct, it's not fancy.
However, it seems strange to have the Bull Demon King in the Minotaur's Labyrinth.
I've been convinced that the other monsters are related to cows, but when it comes to a demon king, I'm not sure if it's okay for him to be there. I can't help but wonder. And it's the Minotaur's front-runner.
Then again, my prediction might be wrong.
I used my camping set for the first time in a while and logged out. I have to take a bathroom break, it's not good. Then I log back in and summon the rest of my team. Decide the members while applying the cooking buff.
Surprisingly, it was Koihi who was the first candidate.
"I want to fight!"
"Can I ask why?"
"There is an even stronger monster after this, right? Then Lily-oneesama and the others should fight it"
Koihi thought it through properly and ran as a candidate. Among my members, Lily, Ion, Setia, Koihi, Ix, Nowa and Wako are outstandingly strong.
If you're thinking of organizing, Lily, Ion and Setia will probably be in the back. If I had to choose, I would have left Koihi in the second half, but it would have been pointless if I couldn't get to her.
I think she was thinking about that when she made her decision.
"If the opponent is using a sword, I won't lose! I'll win and let Lily and the sisters move on!"
What a good girl. I'll praise her.
"All right. I'll leave it to Koihi. Is that okay with everyone?"
Everyone nodded. Then the other members were decided.
"If Koihi is going to fight, I have to support her"
"Older sister..."
As a matter of course, Wako joins in and Kotetsu also appears in front of me. If it has a sword, there are things you can't give up.
And then an unexpected person joined. It's Sephone.
"If the other party claims to be a demon, then I must go"
"A, Are you sure?"
"Don't worry. It's nighttime now. I would never fight in the daytime"
I see. I guess we'll be okay then? I wonder what the rest of the team will be. Then Ix and Bran came forward.
"If Master is the last to fight, I think I should go"
"I also think that if the Minotaur is a man, then Ribina will have the advantage. Besides, it is the mission of an angel to fight a demon. Leave it to me, my Lord"
So, the members were Koihi, Ix, Wako, Sephone, Bran and Kotetsu.
The six of them entered the room and were able to identify the enemy.
Ox Demon General?
? ? ?
I knew it was an original monster. This thing looks like a Minotaur. The difference is that it wears armor and even a cape.
What's more, it has a large sword that Setia described. It's a weapon that's as big as I am and judging by the size of the blade, it's more like a giant kitchen knife than a sword.
In addition, this thing seems to be intelligent.
"I'm glad you've overcome your ordeal and made it this far. I see...you have good eyes that are determined. You are indeed a strong man who has come this far. Then I will introduce myself"
He put the huge knife on his shoulder and said his name.
"I am the Ox Demon General who supports the great Ox Demon King! Challenge me to the battle, strong men. Let's fight to the fullest!"
And then, the Ox Demon General used his tempering spirit and attacked. However, this is also set by Wako and Sephone.
"Rune Arts!"
"Curse!"
Wako blocked the Ox Demon General's technique. The technique released from that huge kitchen knife is not fashionable. I think to first seal it was a nice decision.
In addition, Sephone has made him become the abnormal condition curse, canceling out the reinforcement of the tempering spirit. This is also a good decision.
However, the Ox Demon General is unconcerned and brandishes his huge knife. The one who intercepted him was Koihi.
"Yaaaa! Holy Fire! Flash!"
"Nuh!"
The katana that Koihi holds and the giant kitchen knife of Ox Demon General collide with each other and Koihi is easily blown away. After all, with strength only we cant win.
Everyone acted so as not to waste the time that Koihi had made. First, Sephone takes care of the debuffs, while Ix attacks with her energy sword and Bran with her spear.
"Energy sword, maximum output!"
"Haaaa! Pile Bunker!
Bran's spear struck the Ox Demon General's armor first, but it was repelled. Wouldn't that armor be undaunted in the spear technique pile bunker?
But the energy sword that Ix decided to use also hit him directly. But although the damage was done, the Ox Demon General was not cut.
What was that? Only when the magic blade of the energy sword touched the Ox Demon General, it seemed to be disturbed.
"Nuu. As expected, Ex Machina. It was a good attack, but it won't work on me!"
The Ox Demon General swung his huge knife at Ix. That's not good! Ix is in no condition to move!
"I won't let you! Barrier!"
Wako traps the Ox Demon General in a barrier. However, the Ox Demon General is calm.
"Hou. A barrier...but I don't think itll prevent my blow at that level!"
Ox Demon General wields his huge knife toward Ix. The huge knife easily cuts through the barrier and approaches Ix. Is that the magic power cut used by Tetsushin-san? But there is also a power type here that you can rely on.
"Gaaaa!"
Kotetsu wielded his prized sword and clashed with Ox Demon General's attack and they fought back and forth. The Ox Demon General is delighted to see this.
"Hou! You're competing with my attack! Interesting!
"Yaaaa!"
The Ox Demon General, who was engrossed in the struggle with Kotetsu, used his spirit power to reduce his momentum, kicked the wall and reacted to Koihi's attack by slashing at her again.
The Ox Demon General's strength dropped as Koihi's attack hit him and Kotetsu flicked the Ox Demon General's huge knife, causing him to stiffen.
"Now! Huuu!"
"Gaaaa!"
"Leave it to me!"
"Heavenly Strike!"
At the signal from Wako the Ox Demon General was hit by Wako's holy fire, Kotetsu's tiger cannon, Sephone's shadow spear and Bran's heaven strike. Sephone made a noise.
"You did it!"
"It is not going to be that easy"
As pointed out by Wako, Koihi and the others keep a distance from Ox Demon General and get in position.
Koihi is aware. It's not so easy to win with this kind of enemy.
Sure enough, the Ox Demon General was still alive. He was charred here and there and seemed to have suffered a lot of damage, but it was amazing to be able to survive with such a series of attacks.
"Nuu...it worked pretty well right now. But this is not enough to defeat me!"
The Ox Demon General said so, but I think I've figured out how it works. Ix, who is connected to me by the link skill, speaks while restoring magic power with the energy battery.
"According to Master, the enemy apparently has the skill to mitigate attacks that use magic power"
"Hou. Your summoner seems to be a very strong man. As you can see, I can interfere with magic and reduce the damage of attacks that use magic. As you can see, some damage will get through, though. So, what do we do now?"
He explained politely. And he's waiting for me. This Ox Demon General is a battle maniac. He's enjoying the battle.
"...What should we do?"
"Master seems to think that the same way Lily-oneesama's dealt with it"
"So you're saying we should dodge and attack?"
Koihi quickly understood my idea. She knows effective tactics because Koihi is also training with Lily.
"I and Koihi-oneesama, Bran and Kotetsu-sama will deal with the enemy"
"We'll provide support"
"Umm! Leave it to us!"
"Have you decided on a plan? Let's go!"
Ox Demon General inhaled and shot a huge burning rock at Koihi and the others.
It was a completely unexpected attack.
"Ix! Reflection!"
"It's impossible. It's too big!"
Wakos barrier is unlikely to prevent it. Meanwhile, there was something that moved toward the burning rock. It's Sephone.
"I will stop it! You must protect everyone with your barrier!"
"Tss! I understand!"
Wako creates a barrier, Sephone receives the burning rock and the burning rock explodes.
"Nuwaaaaa!"
Seeing that, Ox Demon General squints his eyes.
"Hou...you sacrifice yourself to protect your friends. It's a big deal, but with this"
"Huhahahaha! Who are you talking about sacrificing?"
"What!?"
The darkness gathers and Sephone is revived. At the same time, the spell destroying seal is activated. It damages the Ox Demon General and also seals the skill he just used.
"I, I'm back! Too bad for you! Ox Demon General! I am a vampire! My name is Sephone! I will become a demon king! A demon general is no match for me!"
She's getting carried away, isn't she? Well, I don't know how the tension goes up when it goes according to expectations.
"Nuu...vampires immortality skill! Eei! You can't tell time in the labyrinth!"
Yeah. It's true that there's no way to know what's going on outside, like a clock, so it's tough.
"Well, good. Then I'll keep killing you until morning!"
"Eh......
Sephone froze. Well, of course that's what's going to happen.
I realized something important here, too. Since I'm not here, I guess I'll have to wait until morning to get my game over, too.
While I was thinking about this super important thing, the Ox Demon General started to move towards Sephone. He shakes his fist.
He thought about it. If he kills Sephone with his sword, he won't be able to use his one-handed sword skill. So the solution is to defeat her with his bare hands.
"S, Shadow Hiding!"
But Sephone runs into the shadow of the Ox Demon General.
"Run into my shadow! Eei! Let's have a fair fight!"
I think he's right, but I don't think he should be so worried about Sephone.
"Blood Awakening! Yaaaa!"
Koihi uses blood awakening to slash at high speed.
"Kotetsu-sama!"
"Gaaaa!"
As if to support the end of Koihi's Blood Awakening, Ix and Kotetsu slash through the Ox Demon General. This time, Bran uses a new spear fighting technique.
"Whirlwind Wheel!"
Bran holds her spear at the ready, spins around and unleashes a series of spear attacks while circling the Ox Demon General. This is a technique that seems to be more of a naginata technique than a spear technique. It seems difficult to do with an ordinary spear.
"Nuu......!!?"
When the whirlwind wheel of Bran is over, a ring that moves freely in the sky is reflected in the eyes of Ox Demon General. The energy ring continues to slash the Ox Demon General by Ixs operation.
"Heaven Ring!
"Gaaaa!"
Bran unleashes the heaven ring, hitting him directly. The following wind blade from Kotetsu also hits directly. However, the Ox Demon General did not fall.
"What you're doing...I don't think you'll be distracted during the fight, but you don't have a chance anymore!"
Ix held up her energy sword in front of the Ox Demon General. Koihi receives the price of blood awakening. Bran is in charge of recovery.
"Don't think that Ex Machina can stop my sword!"
"I have no intention of stopping it"
Ix doesn't stop the sword of the Ox Demon General, but sheds it and sometimes hesitates to handle the sword of the Ox Demon General. This is the swordsmanship I use against Lily.
The result is astonishing to the Ox Demon General.
"What!? What is that skillful sword attack!? Ex Machina must not have had such knowledge!"
This guy knows Ex Machina, right? It seems that he has fought them before.
I"t is true that we will not be able to compete with you. But I have a master. I don't feel like losing to you with swordsmanship"
"Your master teaches you that swordplay!? You're a summoner!"
My bad. I'm a summoner and I can use a sword. Ix did a great job of buying time and Koihi and Bran joined the battle.
"Eeei! If so, you will be wiped out!"
The Ox Demon General breathes in and shoots flames at Ix.
"I'm here! Nuwaaaaa!"
Sephone jumps out from the Ox Demon General's shadow and is burned by the flames. As a result, Sephone was resurrected and the Ox Demon General was damaged by the spell-destroying seal and his skills were also sealed.
The flames also reach Ix, but Wako protects her with a barrier. However, the flames broke through the barrier and closed in on Ix, but Bran quickly defended her with her water shield. I thought it was a good thing that the shield was strong against fire attributes, but Liebling's water shield broke when it blocked the flames.
I wonder how powerful it was? What's broken can't be helped. Finally, I'd like to thank Liebling's water shield for protecting Ix, Bran and Wako.
"Eeei! You're annoying!"
Well, I can understand his frustration. But this is the strategy that Sephone has chosen. If you're feeling annoyed, it means you've fallen under Sephone's spell.
The attack and defense continued and the Ox Demon General was cornered, but Ix's magic power was in the danger zone. Ix saved her energy and fought on, but it was too long.
"I don't think I'll be cornered, but I'll be defeated!"
An aura of darkness rose up from the Ox Demon General. We'll have to use our trump card on this one. Wako also understood that.
"Koihi! That's not good! We'll use our trump cards!"
"Yes! Older sister!"
"Master has given his permission"
Ix conveyed my intentions to them.
"Thanks. Let's go!"
""Beastification!""
Flames erupted and two huge white foxes descended.
"Beastmen! That's what I'm talking about! Let's go!"
The Ox Demon General readied his sword. Koihi and Wako inhaled.
"Ox Demon Wave Motion!"
Shrine Breath!
The same technique that Lily and the others use for the wave motion and the shrine breath collide. The fight was in competition.
"Nuu! Will you compete with my Ox Demon Wave Motion! But I will win"
Gusatsu
The Ox Demon General couldn't say anything until the end. He was so absorbed in the fight that a huge sword pierced him from behind. It's not hard to tell that it was Kotetsu. After inflicting a fatal wound, Kotetsu left the scene.
"My Lord...I see. This was not a duel, but a battle..."
Koihi! Now!
Yes! Older Sister! Haaaa!
The two shrine breaths swallowed the ox demon wave motion.
"Excellent"
With that, the Ox Demon General was swallowed by the shrine breath and defeated.
The information about the victory comes.
Koihis katana skill level has reached 20. She has acquired the katana technique Iai-Kiri
Bran's light magic skill level has reached 10. She has acquired the light magic Laser and Clear
Did Koihi finally learn the martial art Iai-Kiri? This doesn't seem like a pretty powerful martial art.
And Bran and Sephone receive a great level up. I think it means that they were able to fight an enemy with that much difference in level. If it weren't for the two of them, we would have struggled even more. That's how active the two of them were.
I'll work hard for everyone. Koihi and Wako, who had become children, looked disappointed.
"I've become a child again..."
"It can't be helped, but it's really frustrating"
If I have to use Synchro Burst anytime soon, I'll be in the dumps. I'll give them a brushing later.
Ix gave me an order.
"If I had more energy batteries, I could handle it. I'll request Master to produce them"
"You're right. Shall we go to the battleship tomorrow, along with Ix's new equipment?"
"Yes, Master"
Looks like Sephone wants a compliment.
"How did it go? The success of me!"
"Sephone's strategy was spot on. You are the future demon king"
"Umm Umm! Takuto is watching very carefully! That's my summoner!"
I think I'm beginning to understand how to praise Sephone.
Bran seems to be reflecting on the situation.
"I'm sorry...I broke the shield..."
"That's how powerful the technique was, right? You don't have to worry about it, Bran. Let's just be thankful for Lieblings water shield for protecting us so well"
"Yes...but I'd like to be able to stop normal attacks as well as those flames with my shield. Because Kotetsu-san stopped it"
Well, it might have been a little easier if she could play it with a shield. But this is my fault. Bran's shield is too weak, you know. It's a good opportunity and I'll talk to Hephaestus about it when I get back.
I also stroked Kotetsu and worked hard to dismantle it. Here are the results.
Beheading Large Sword: Rarity 6 Large Sword Quality C
Weight: 90 Durability: 80 Attack Power: 60
Additional Effect: Special attack on large monsters (Medium)
A large sword designed to cut off the head of any demon. It can also cut off the heads of large demons, but in return it is large and heavy.
This is the large sword that the Ox Demon General used. The large sword can only be used for Lily, but what should I do...I think the big game special attack is an effect that will give a big advantage in the future, but I think the flying lizard large sword will be easier to use.
Perhaps it feels like changing weapons to suit the enemy. Let's keep it for now and move on.
The next battle is the last one. I want to conquer it quickly and go to bed!
