Although they fell at the same time, it was impossible to defeat Athena. The person who hacked her knew better than anyone else.
Athena slowly stood up.
There didn't seem to be any scars. Well, the damage to the body shouldn't recover so quickly.
"As expected, it won't work. If that counts as my win, that would be a great help.”
"What are you talking about? You're the one who calls me the Snake Goddess. No matter how deep the wound was, the snake and the woman would not die. Even if he died, he would be reborn no matter how many times he died.”
A snake that shed its skin and then regenerated. A woman who wouldn't die even if her period bled a lot.
No matter which one it was, it was a symbol of immortality.
However, even though she was speaking in a complacent tone, Athena's face was very pale.
On the other hand, the guardian's spirit was also greatly depleted because of the death sentence. Although there were no external injuries, he felt that his vitality had been reduced.
In the end, the two of them faced each other in pain.
"Next, your 'sword' can no longer be used. I know."
Athena pointed out this annoying fact.
That was how it was. That full-powered slash caused the golden 'sword' to disappear.
Bai Qi no longer had a weapon that could both attack and defend.
"In other words, you want to use the power of the sun now, right?……Among the incarnations of Valeslana, the one with the strongest connection with the sun should be the horse.”
The combat power here had already been properly controlled. The battle with the Goddess of Wisdom was indeed tough. The guardian sighed.
But of course, he didn't have the time.
Athena approached silently and attacked again with the Scythe of Darkness.
Baiqi managed to dodge it with great difficulty.
Next was the second attack.
The skin on his shoulder was peeled off.
The third strike.
His leg was almost chopped off.
Although he had lost the power of the sword, he was still the incarnation of the warrior. Able to correctly understand Athena's intentions and read her movements in advance. This power was still present.
Therefore, he could at least avoid those decisive attacks.
Of course, if he couldn't fight back like this, he would be killed immediately.
If there was no corresponding attack power here, there was no need for her to defend. If he didn't have the uneasiness of being counterattacked, then the enemy would desperately attack and force him into a corner.
The sickle slashed vertically and horizontally. He continued to attack.
Dodge. Dodge. Dodge.
Facing Athena's attacks, Bai Qi could only continue to flee.
"What's wrong, Shiroyuki Kusanagi? Don't you want to use the power of the horse? This is probably the only weapon that can defeat me, right?”
Athena mocked.
How can I use it at this point? He must have prepared some defensive strategy.
Baiqi was thinking about how to win.
If he continued to engage in close combat with Athena, his chances of winning were not even one in ten thousand.
He could be certain about this.
If it was a baseball or indoor football game, he might still be able to win, but Shiki had no martial arts skills at all. It was impossible to defeat the opponent with just physical strength.
It was only at this moment that he really hoped that his partner, who had always been reliable, could be his shield.
He held the lion's magic sword in one hand and entered the room valiantly in a red and black shirt.
But now, she was not around.
Is it because you can't find me and Athena? No, that guy wasn't that kind of person. As long as he wished for it, it would probably appear out of nowhere.
While he was thinking, Athena's scythe was already in front of him.
Bai Qi jumped out in a panic to avoid being hit.
However, his chest was slashed, and blood spurted out. Although it was not a fatal wound, it was a very deep wound.
Then, Baiqi was convinced.
Even at this time, he still didn't come to help.
In other words, his partner understood what Baiqi was waiting for, and was waiting for the right opportunity. If that was the case, he would definitely be able to win with this alone…
"To think that you could dodge it! I really don't want to accept my fate, Shiroyuki!”
The scythe quickly came slashing over, and Bai Qi was hiding here and there.
His body was slashed everywhere.
Even so, the important parts were still not cut.
Bai Qi was covered in blood and dirt as he rolled on the ground. Although it was very embarrassing, it was enough. The important thing was that he didn't die.
Suddenly, Bai Qi stopped running.
He stood up with trembling legs.
After confirming it, he decided to take a gamble. If it was Elektra, she would definitely do as Baiqi wanted!
"Just as you said. I still have the incarnation of the sun.”
Baiqi pointed at the sky in the east.
He was imagining a white stallion. Bathed in the brilliance of the sun, the majestic appearance of the pure white Hummer.
"For the sake of victory, come to me! O undying sun, please bestow upon the shining steed. Bring forth thy master's halo, O divine steed!”
Veleslana's third incarnation, the White Horse.
Since ancient times, horses had a close relationship with the sun god.
The Sun God who rode a carriage from east to west was a common tradition in many civilizations. The East, India, Northern Europe, China, and Babylon were no exception.
The same was true of Apollo in Greece.
Like him, there was also the Persian God of Light, Mithra, who also preached the same myth.
Then, it was not without reason that Veleslana, who served Mithra, transformed into a white horse and carried the sun.
"Oh, oh, it's here. That stupid horse."
Athena muttered as she looked to the east.
Yes, in the darkness that sealed all light, the eastern sky began to burn.
The sun was rising.
The eastern sky was dyed red by the light of dawn.
It was midnight and there were still more than five hours before dawn.
But now, the sky was very bright.
This was the ability of the White Horse's incarnation to summon the sun.
"To be honest, this avatar is really difficult to use. But this time you went too far. Why? Because this was an ability that could only be used by the sinner who gave the people suffering.”
Athena, who was created from the Dark World, fulfilled this condition.
…If it was this condition, honestly speaking, he didn't know what would be used, so he originally ignored it.
"Take this, Athena! Taste the fire of the sun that dispels the darkness!”
The arrow of light fell from the sky like the Sun God's spear.
The area around Athena was engulfed by the white light.
The cleansing fire that burns sinners.
From the sky in the distant east, flames of extreme heat descended on the ground.
" Aoaooo!!"
Even Athena couldn't stand it and screamed in anguish.
The flames of the Sun King that drove away the night and replaced the God of Hell. It could also be said to be the natural enemy of this goddess.
But…
"Hahahahaha! Don't underestimate me, Shiki Krushanagi! Didn't I already say it before? I already know how to read your actions! In any case, this was just a dying struggle.”
Athena was surrounded by a black barrier.
A black barrier that blocked all light.
Just like that, the white flames were stopped. She had probably been accumulating dark divine power for this purpose, hiding and waiting for the right opportunity.
Just like that, until the flames burned out, Athena would probably use this to protect herself.
Baiqi probably did not have an incarnation that could defeat the dark Mother God. And when the flames disappeared, the incarnation of White Horse would be released, and the power of White Kyu would also disappear.
However, Bai Qi shook his head.
"No, you're the one who looks down on others. This isn't necessarily about me, but you really underestimate them-humans.”
From the darkness, a beam of light flew towards Bai Qi.
The color of the light was silver.
A long sword with a clear blade that shone with silver light.
Reinhardt. This was the magic sword of the lion that Bai Qi's partner wielded.
The silver sword was deeply embedded in front of Bai Qi.
"When we were fighting, did you forget about Erika? If it was just me, I might lose, but what if it wasn't?”
Bai Qi pulled Reinhardt out.
"You were too careless, Athena! That guy's sword was specially made. It contained the spirit of despair, a demonic sword that could even defeat the gods. Normally, you could block it, but what would happen when you were protecting the sun with all your might?”
The white flames were stopped, unable to reach the goddess 'jade body.
However, Athena started to get anxious.
- - However, he was engrossed in the battle.
Therefore, when she saw Bai Qi in a desperate situation, she did not show up.
Therefore, Baiqi understood what Erika was planning and decided to bet everything on it.
It was all for the sake of turning Reinhardt into a new ultimate move at this moment.
"It's a great help that we're able to succeed in a joint battle without any discussion. That guy, Erika, was really waiting for him to appear.”
Throwing his beloved sword at him from the darkness, this was indeed his partner.
Baiqi slowly approached Athena.
However, he would also be burned if he were to slash it like this.
Wait for the flames to stop?
Just as he was thinking about this, Reinhardt transformed into the shape of a gun. It was probably because of magic.
So that was the case. There was no need to be pierced by the flames.
Bai Qi smiled at this Support.
"This is the final blow. Take it, Athena!"
With a big wave, he threw the gun out.
Reinhardt, who had turned into a javelin, turned into a silver meteor and pierced Athena's chest.
The goddess and the silver gun were both burning.
But it didn't matter.
That sword was indestructible steel. Even if they were melted by the flames, they would be resurrected like the Undying Bird.
"Do you want to get rid of Athena, who doesn't obey you? Damn it, a man with a shameful name like Demon King!”
"Don't blame it on others! It's just that you underestimated humans and destroyed yourself!”
Athena, who had been crushed by the silver attack, was devoured by the white flames.
After a few minutes, the white flames finally burned out, and the dawn in the east also disappeared.
It became the original darkness.
Yes, the roads and streets were illuminated by innumerable streetlights, and the light that leaked from the buildings shone down below-into the usual half-darkness.
Bai Qi heaved a sigh of relief and looked up into the night sky.
The moon and the stars were shining brightly.
The beautiful night sky of Tokyo was very familiar to him even though it had only been ten years. This was actually not bad.
Thus, the duel ended.
Go home, take a shower, and have a good sleep.
Let's talk about the rest later.
"How is it, Bai Qi? I think she can win the supporting actress award for her performance just now.”
Two young girls appeared in the fierce battle arena.
One was a thin blonde Italian. The other was a Japanese woman dressed in a witch costume who had a deep expression on her face for some reason.
"If I can, I'll give you as many awards as you want. Even an award ceremony is fine."
Bai Qi replied as he yawned on the withered grass.
He was indeed very tired.
However, the pain of being cut black and blue all over his body was not painful at all. The wound on his chest had also begun to heal. Campione's body's regenerative ability was really not common sense.
But…
He was probably responsible for half of the mess in the garden.
How many Tokyo citizens could tell that this was the Hamariya Palace's Courtyard of Grace?
At some point in time, a huge crater had appeared on the ground.
The pine forest and the garden with all kinds of bright flowers that had been passed down since the Edo period had basically disappeared because of Athena's battle with him.
Baiqi deeply reflected on himself. He had gone overboard again.
