章 16: ch16 < Hinata vs Karna >
Hinata Sakaguchi, the captain of the Western Holy Church Imperial Guard, i had one thing to say:
"Rimuru didn't kill Shizu."
"She had beautiful, glossy black hair that fell shoulder-length, with the left side swept back and the right almost covering her eye.
"So, you're his sibling. You're also guilty of killing Shizu-sensei.
I'll first kill you, then I'll go after your sibling."
"First off, how do you know about Rimuru's face? He always wore a mask during his adventurer persona."
"We have our resources. And I'm not interested in the word of a monster. So stop this meaningless conversation.
"During our conversation, I removed the thought domination that had been placed on her."
She tried to attack me at first, but with thought acceleration at 10 million, she moved extremely slowly in my eyes.
She was extremely skilled in swordsmanship, but I still dodged her every attack effortlessly.
"How were you able to move so fast?" she asked.
"I used a simple round kick." Hinata was forced to move back and did a backflip to create some distance.
"You see, Shizu died because Ifrit left her body. You probably know her condition.
"She paused for a second before slashing at me again. I just dodged her attack.
"Because of her hatred for monsters and her false pride, she neglects all her reasoning.
"A series of high-speed thrusts. The afterimage, matching the color of the jewels, came at me.
Karna dodged them effortlessly.
Karna took out his sword, a legendary-grade sword called 'Dark Star,' which he got from Milim as a gift.
This sword possessed great compatibility with spiritrons and stardust.
Soon our swords met, and a clang sounded when our swords met.
Her rapier darted toward Karna's chest like a striking serpent. Karna parried the thrust with a swift upward sweep of his sword, the blades meeting with a resounding clash that echoed through the area..
"She is getting on my nerves." Karna swung his sword with all his strength, colliding with Hinata's and overwhelming her completely.
Boom!
A loud sound rang out, and Hinata was blown away, sent rolling across the rumbling ground.
"Such strength," she muttered, standing up as if nothing had happened.
Hinata invoked Usurper as a starter, just to see what kind of enemy she was dealing with.
This time, though, it failed her. The skill went through the motions... and once it was done, the result it returned to her was "blocked."
She was shocked.This was her second time.. This monster, is he on par with luminous sama. She thought in her mind.
She accelerated at such a speed that without my thought acceleration, I might have faced difficulties in catching her movement.
"I put a little bit of magic on my sword and struck Hinata's sword.
"She seemed to be gradually getting better at handling my attacks.
"I released my strike against Hinata's strange rapier blow. Her sword took my power and warded it off.
"That blow was probably strong enough to destroy a large building, but Hinata, no longer receiving it head-on, parried and diverted the force of the blow.
I'm actually surprised at how quickly she's adapting.<So that's the power of her unique skill, Mathematician.>
"You're actually a big deal, huh?"
"What big deal. I'm just fighting to protect my kingdom and brother."
"Stop speaking such lines. You monster don't know the remorse of losing somebody," Hinata said with anger in her eyes.
Her sword slaughter continued. She is quite stubborn.
I then used Absolute End and cut her sword.
"What the hell did you do?" she was shocked, witnessing her broken sword.
I then appeared from the side and kicked Hinata in the gut. Hinata lost her balance. Karna used this chance and slapped Hinata away.
Hinata's body flew away, and she fell down.
"Ugghhhhh!"She tried to stand up; however, Karna quickly appeared right next to her and grabbed the back of her neck, putting weight on her neck.
"Would you surrender?" Karna asked.
"In your dreams." She quickly replied.She quickly tried to use her leg, but all she got was a knee to her abdomen.
Bam"
Khhoookhhkhkkk!!"
The blow was so frightening that Hinata got blown away in the sky. She coughed out a huge amount of blood from her mouth.
<Oops, it seems I used more power.>
In mid-air, Before she could make contact with the ground, she threw some talismans at me.
Those were Binding Tailspin, which did nothing to me.I then burst out my aura, and all bindings got undone.
She got up, and then a blinding light surrounded her.
After the light died down, Hinata appeared with shiny golden armor radiating a holy aura and a legendary-grade sword, Moonlight, which can destroy a person's astral body.
An intense sword clash happened again.
Ten strikes... twenty strikes... one hundred strikes... one thousand strikes.
A drop of blood escaped from Hinata's nose.
Gradually, our swordsmanship improved as our battle grew.
When our blades crossed, the earth shook; when a blow was deflected, trees were blown away by the force.
When she noticed she was at a losing edge, she made some distance and used a restraint spell on me.
She then chanted some kind of spell, and a magic circle appeared around me.
Hinata: "Disintegration!"A bright white light surrounded me from above and shot at me, causing a small explosion.
As Hinata slowly started to leave, thinking she had defeated the monster, she said, "Next is you, Rimuru Tempest."
But then she heard a laugh she thought she would never hear again in her life.
"Kufufufu, that was a really impressive spell you cast," I laughed like Diablo.
Hinata was truly shocked; her strongest attack didn't even put a scratch on me.
"H-how did you survive Disintegration?"I was really enjoying the reaction I was getting from Hinata.
"Simple, I used defense magic."
<Because of UL skill Shakti, I already analyzed and know everything about spiritrons and holy magic.>
With Multidimensional Barrier, Karna can easily block spiritrons.
Letting go of her stupor, she used her strongest attack in her arsenal.
The move was Melt Slash. Soon, a Disintegration spell formed on her arms.
A bright light—not the glint of a sword, but her entire body, with shiny particles shooting out of it—as she advanced at a superhuman speed that went way beyond what I expected.
The sword she wielded had the power to dispel and evaporate all types of evil.
I used UL Shakti to counteract Melt Slash instantly.
She charged at Karna with Melt Slash.
Karna casually swung his hand, releasing an unbelievable attack.
Our swords met, and boom!
Her sword was destroyed for the second time, and she was blown away, falling back and crashing into many trees while I remained standing.
"Uh-!"
It took some seconds to realize what happened.
"Melt Slash-?!
No way! Can you really manipulate spiritrons like that without chanting?!"
"And how can a monster utilize holy magic?"
The difference in strength was too overwhelming. Comparing Hinata to Karna was like comparing an infant to an adult.
Her fighting spirit diminished.
She sat on the ground against the barrier, looking at me while I stood.
She may have been trying some last-minute trick.
"You know, I don't plan to kill you, so you can stop your communication to the outside and just listen to what I have to say once."
"Let me guess, this private source you speak of is some random Eastern merchant?"She seemed shocked at how I knew about this and then even more shocked by my replies.
"You seem to be confused, Hinata. Let me make myself clear:
I felt Yuuki was somewhat shady right from the start."He also has an unawakened Demon Lord-level secretary with him.
He even tried thought domination on me.
"Sometimes you have to let go of the picture of what you thought life would be like and learn to find joy in the story you are actually living.
"Your heart possesses darkness, and the power of fate and miracle is extremely weak.
"Let me show you the true power of fate and belief.
"Karna swung his sword again, this time releasing 'Disintegration' like a beam of strike.
The strike traveled at nearly the speed of light and passed very close to her cheek, destroying a large chunk of ground.
Boom!
Karna then used soul manipulation on her and directly attacked her consciousness, knocking her out.
He then headed towards Tempest.
