"Heavenfall!"
"Starburst Arrow!"
The two attacks struck Shalltear simultaneously.
"Boom!!!"
A massive crater over a hundred meters wide formed at the point of impact around Shalltear.
"Hahaha! That hurts so much!" Shalltear exclaimed with excitement, standing in crimson armor, a pair of white wings extending from her back. In her right hand, she gripped a long spear that was tethered to her body.
"Incredible! To think I get to fight two Supreme Beings!" Shalltear laughed fervently.
Wasting no time, she charged straight toward them. Shalltear knew full well that facing two Supreme Beings at once gave her almost no chance of winning. There was no room for mistakes.
"That's dangerous, you know!" Momonga suddenly warned.
Before Shalltear could process what he meant, a sudden burst of light appeared in front of her.
"Boom!"
Explosions erupted mid-charge, forcing Shalltear to dodge. But as she maneuvered, more explosions detonated behind and beside her.
"Swish!"
An arrow of light struck Shalltear amidst the chaos.
The charged shot from Peroroncino's Hou Yi Bow was equivalent to the damage of a 9th-tier spell. The hit inflicted significant damage on Shalltear.
<Maximized Gravity Vortex>
A black sphere interwoven with lightning appeared in Momonga's palm. With a flick of his wrist, he hurled it toward Shalltear.
As Shalltear performed a backflip to retreat, she pressed one hand to the ground.
<Stone Wall>
A stone wall erupted from the earth to shield her.
<Piercing Star Arrow>
An arrow shot forth, moving faster than the black orb Momonga had released. It shattered Shalltear's stone wall.
The arrow and the stone wall neutralized each other, but the gravity orb struck Shalltear.
"Eye of Analysis," Peroroncino muttered, observing Shalltear's status. A debuff, <Speed Halved>, was now applied to her.
<Maximized Rib Bind>
Massive spikes appeared around Shalltear, attempting to trap her.
Without hesitation, Shalltear took to the skies.
<Rift Slash>
A rift appeared in the air, from which light arrows shot out.
A similar rift appeared in front of Peroroncino. He aimed his bow and fired into the rift. As his arrow passed through, it multiplied into five arrows.
<Unclean Shield Impact>
A powerful shield burst from Shalltear, dispelling all the effects around her. The debuff on her body also vanished.
<Maximized Thousand Bone Spears>
Countless bone spikes erupted from the ground, speeding toward Shalltear.
<Greater Teleportation>
Shalltear attempted to teleport directly to Momonga, but her spell was interrupted, forcing her to reappear mid-air.
"Delayed Teleportation!" Shalltear exclaimed in surprise.
<Floating Grand Inferno Mines>
Numerous glowing spheres appeared around Shalltear in the air.
Suddenly, they exploded violently.
Shalltear's figure blurred as she shifted to another location.
Momonga was relentless.
<Maximized Ghostly Strike>
A silver-white energy needle shot from his hand, hurtling toward Shalltear at incredible speed.
Shalltear's body flickered again, reappearing on the ground, but blood trickled from her lips. The relentless attacks had taken a toll on her.
<Starfall Arrow Rain>
Peroroncino fired a charged arrow into the sky.
Arrows rained down from above, bombarding Shalltear without respite.
"This won't do... I have no choice but to trade injury for injury," Shalltear thought grimly.
<Cleansing Throwing Spear>
Amidst the arrow barrage, a pale blue energy spear appeared in Shalltear's hand. She hurled it directly at Momonga.
Momonga was well aware of this ability.
"The holy-attribute <Cleansing Throwing Spear>," he remarked.
He switched his gear to minimize the damage from holy-element attacks.
The <Cleansing Throwing Spear> pierced straight through Momonga's chest.
This ability was one Shalltear possessed that Momonga could neither block with skills nor counter with equipment. He had no choice but to take it head-on.
<Maximized Instant Slash>
Momonga extended one skeletal hand toward Shalltear, releasing a slashing attack that struck her in an instant, leaving a visible crack in her body.
However, Shalltear smiled, and the crack vanished.
Meanwhile, Peroroncino had been charging an attack.
"Shalltear, try this on for size. Let's see if you can withstand it."
<Corelight Arrow>
Shalltear had no time to react and was struck by the arrow. Her body began to glow with a radiant holy light. This arrow inflicted ongoing damage.
"Aaaahhh!!! This is a holy-attribute attack!" Shalltear cried out. As a True Vampire, her weakness was to holy-element attacks.
<Unclean Shield Impact>
<Maximized Triple Instant Slash>
Momonga followed up with a series of attacks. Three white slashes struck Shalltear in quick succession, leaving deep wounds.
Simultaneously, wave after wave of light arrows struck Shalltear, compounding her injuries.
Shalltear suddenly charged directly at Peroroncino.
<Shadow Flash>
Peroroncino disappeared from his original position and reappeared above Shalltear.
<Nine Shadow Triple Slash>
<Maximized Rib Bind>
Shalltear was surrounded by massive spikes, trapped within them.
Eight shadowy clones split off from Peroroncino's body.
The eight clones surrounded Shalltear, while Peroroncino hovered above her.
Suddenly, the sky and earth seemed to shift. The eight clones pulled back their bows, each aiming an arrow charged with different magical circles of various colors—red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet, and black.
Above Shalltear, Peroroncino's own bow was drawn, with a brilliant white magical circle glowing at the arrow's tip.
At the same moment, nine magical arrows of different colors were launched toward Shalltear.
<Greater Teleportation>
Momonga immediately teleported away to avoid being caught in the crossfire.
Just as Shalltear broke free from the rib-like spikes, she saw a flash of light.
"Boom!"
The simultaneous impact of the nine arrows caused a massive explosion, shaking the earth violently.
As the smoke cleared, the battlefield resembled the aftermath of a meteor strike. The area had transformed into a massive crater with a radius of a kilometer.
At the bottom of the crater stood Shalltear.
"As expected of Lord Peroroncino… Such overwhelming power. Thankfully, I have the resurrection item you gave me," she murmured.
<Super-Tier Magic: Skyfall>
At the edge of the crater, Momonga activated a cash item to shorten the casting time of his super-tier magic.
Just as Shalltear revived, she was hit with the super-tier spell.
"This is the power of the Supreme Beings. Just two of them leave me utterly defenseless," Shalltear thought, marveling at their strength.
<Summon Familiars>
A swarm of black creatures appeared around Shalltear.
<Heroic Warrior>
Another version of Shalltear, pure white in appearance, split off from her body.
Special Ability: All Life's End at Death
<Expanded Magic Effect: Banshee Wail>
Behind Momonga, a massive clock face appeared, its hands slowly ticking forward.
Peroroncino stowed away his bow and engaged the Heroic Warrior in close combat.
The Heroic Warrior outmatched Peroroncino in melee, but all he needed to do was stall for time.
As the clock's hands ticked, Shalltear was attacking her familiars, using her spear to drain their blood and replenish her health. Despite this, the sustained damage left her HP critically low.
When the clock's final hand moved, Peroroncino used <Shadow Flash> to exit Momonga's skill radius.
A piercing female scream echoed across the battlefield, affecting all summoned creatures, the Heroic Warrior, and Shalltear herself.
The land within the area turned into yellow sand, transforming the field into a man-made basin.
Shalltear's health plummeted drastically.
"Whizz!"
A light arrow struck Shalltear.
In desperation, Shalltear charged madly toward Peroroncino.
<Perfect Warrior>
Momonga equipped himself with <The World Champion's Armor>, a silver-white set of armor, and held Touch Me's shield to block Shalltear's attacks, creating an opening for Peroroncino to strike.
Shalltear bypassed Momonga and aimed directly for Peroroncino.
However, as she turned her back to Momonga, his weapon transformed into a lightning-infused blade, slicing off her wings in one swift motion.
"This is… <Takemikazuchi MK-8>!"
"That's Warrior Takemikazuchi-sama's weapon!"
Shalltear initially believed that the mana-depleted Momonga was merely a tank, and if she could defeat Peroroncino, she might still win. But she realized she had underestimated him.
Recognizing that Momonga posed the greater threat, Shalltear abandoned her defense, hoping for an opportunity to counterattack and drain blood.
However, Momonga's lightning blade pierced through her left arm.
"An opening!"
Seeing her chance, Shalltear attacked during a gap in Momonga's strikes.
But Momonga discarded <Takemikazuchi MK-8> without hesitation.
He crushed a small wooden stick, summoning two short swords into his hands.
"These are… Warrior Bukubukuchagama-sama's weapons…"
Momonga swiftly wielded the dual blades, slashing Shalltear repeatedly and leaving grievous wounds.
"These weapons have holy attributes!"
"How can this be? Where are you hiding all these weapons?" Shalltear asked in disbelief, her eyes wide.
"Allow me to reveal the answer—cash items," Momonga replied.
"Those little sticks…"
"It's time to end this!"
<Star Devourer Arrow>
A massive arrow shot toward Shalltear. With her wings severed, she had no way to dodge.
The colossal arrow struck Shalltear directly, ending her life.
In her final moments, Shalltear muttered softly:
"Lord Peroroncino… I'm sorry…"
