READ NOVEL ONLINE Chapter 99 - Darkness That Devours Gods☆ (2)
Actually, I expected the [Twin Priests] to appear.
There were three priests left…
Considering the twins are essentially treated as one, there are only two executives left in
Among them, the one the prophet would bring out is definitely the [Twin Priests] side. Because the other one, [Priest of Illusion], is the weakest boss who put all points into one special ability.
The silver female priest, [Priest of Illusion].
The weakest… essentially the first boss.
She was just hiding in a pathetic dungeon with a few mob monsters. She had no direct combat power to speak of.
‘Yet her modeling is pretty, so she’s a popular meme character…’
An evil female executive with silver hair and a slender figure.
Moreover, she has the ability to trap opponents in pathetic illusions.
This was essentially a declaration to seduce challenging users with appearance. But she was also a boss who was explicitly weak and quickly cut down.
‘Thanks to that patheticness, she became even more popular.’
Anyway.
Originally, according to the original work, the early troublemaking mantis – [Priest of Strife] Ofnir appears as an ‘unbeatable boss’ and toys with the protagonist’s group. Then [Priest of Illusion] appears and plays the role of the first boss.
This is the first boss battle.
And the second to appear is the [Twin Priests], who are full-fledged ‘priest’ level bosses. From them on, they’re treated as raid bosses requiring awakened characters above [Unique Ether].
The sticky brown twins with suspiciously strong incest memes were also early bosses, but at least they were stronger than [Priest of Illusion] who had no combat power.
‘They earned the title of newbie slaughterers in their own right.’
This is the second boss battle.
Cutting down the two weakest of the Four Heavenly Kings, then properly challenging [Priest of Strife].
This fair and square inflation was the flow of the main story.
I knew it would be like this at the start of the semester.
Before that damn Jinsu-kun interfered.
‘It’s already twisted as much as it can be, so we’re catching them in reverse inflation order starting from the strongest.’
In other words, that dragonfly guy has utterly pathetic combat power compared to the priests we’ve taken down so far.
I tried to gauge if that dragonfly guy had achieved some kind of secret growth.
It was difficult because the distance was too far.
But I stretched out ether with determination and ‘measured’ the gap.
“…”
The older priest of the [Twin Priests] – ‘Goin’.
The energy felt from his main body wasn’t very threatening. Rather, it was boring compared to the enemies so far.
‘As expected of an underdeveloped brown shota* guy.’ (tl/n: shota is a Japanese term means ‘young boy’, also refers to male characters who look cute and boyish; or to put it simply – the male equivalent of loli)
At least if I could attack, I had a feeling I could take him down without much danger.
I was confident I could pound his head and turn him into special
After all, I’m a pink airhead who’s a good housewife and good at cooking.
“…”
But it was too far.
Even if I threw something, it was a distance sufficient to dodge.
I roared with that frustration. The mountains and fields of the whole neighborhood vibrated with the pink airhead’s cry.
“Waaah—☆ You coward!! Come down right now!!”
My frustration reached even the horned dragonfly.
[Twin Priest] Goin muttered in a voice like a school kid whose voice hadn’t fully changed. His voice was muddy as he was in the middle of vomiting mucus-covered chaos insects.
[Tsk, I don’t know what these inferior species are saying. Inferior species have low intelligence too.]
As he said that, he flung poop-like chaos insects this way.
Swoosh—!
Huh, did that guy just throw poop at me?
This school kid, he needs an adult to go and teach him a lesson.
I’ll make him regret while crying under the blanket after getting his butt spanked with a paddle.
“Heyah—☆”
I threw a body-sized rock nearby before it could touch the ground.
Bang—!
The chaos insect that burst after being hit by the stone that flew instantly, cutting through the air. Hearing that sound, the dragonfly that was spewing chaos insects looked this way again.
[What brute strength… Like an inferior monkey species.]
“Is there a cuter inferior species than this☆”
[I don’t know what the inferior species is saying.]
I shouted towards him as provocatively as possible.
“I dwon’t knwow whawt thwe infwewiow spwecies is swaying~☆ Yes♪ You’re dead to me, boy—☆”
[Hmph, inferior species… If you think you can make me angry, you’re sorely mistaken.]
I thought he might come down if he got angry, but my trump card of provocation failed.
Dozens of larval chaos insects that didn’t know their place crawled towards me as I stood like that.
The sight of dozens of big— larvae rushing like a pack of dogs. The pincers attached to their mouths clicking was disgusting.
Shaaaaat—!!
So I casually swung my greatsword without even looking that way. Along with that sword strike, an explosion made of pink ether occurred.
Boooom—!!
The dozens of larval chaos insects couldn’t resist the pure physical force rushing in. Like a pack of dogs walking on frozen ice, they could only struggle and scream.
Kieeek—!!
Even if chaos insects are infinitely copied, 200 or 300 is all the same before overwhelming strength.
They writhe with an ‘Ogok!’ at just one touch like this.
“That’s right, kids—☆”
I turned around like that.
As expected, there was the sight I was hoping for.
The juniors who were flustered at first had regained their senses and were calmly unleashing their unrivaled strength. They were each covering a force that even department heads of average schools would find difficult to handle.
Rota even omitted incantations, and made her two fists like cat paws.
“Meow!”
Each time she went ‘Meow!’, her summoned orange cat rushed in and exploded like a claymore.
Meooow—!
With the explosion, numerous daggers burst from the cat’s mouth and devastated the surroundings. It was a ridiculous sight, but the destructive power was brutal.
Kuuung—!!
The scenery visible through the settling dust.
Dozens burst with each explosion. And what’s visible are the remnants of chaos insects that have become pulpy fresh fruit juice.
Of course they revive not long after, but it was enough attack to hold them back.
In between, Kara’s [Revolutionary Comrades] dispersed aggro and whipped with thin mechanical arms.
The chaos insects tried to escape that pain, and became confused, tangling and falling over each other.
“…”
While feeling proud that the three of us were holding back hundreds… I gauged so we could face the real enemy, not these small fries.
[Kuweeeek—!]
The dragonfly spewing chaos insects from its mouth.
If there was a way to approach that guy…
…
If he would just come down…
…
He’s not coming down—
Am I going to become a grandmother at this rate?
…
‘Come down, you sister complex incestuous dragonfly bastard.’
But the bastard still wouldn’t come down.
Far away, the huge brown dragonfly endlessly spewed chaos insects covered in black mucus. It scattered them like a bomber.
[Kuweeeeek—! Take this!]
“Kuweeeeek☆ Twake thwis☆”
[…]
“Uu, throwing from far away… so unmanly…☆ Why don’t you just dump her and be the little sister instead?”
[…]
Goin threw more chaos insects this way.
Splat!
The chaos insects that became like broken eggs due to gravity when they hit the ground. Soon they regenerated at a fast speed and got up to rush in again.
“Haah—☆ This is really troublesome~☆”
Another wave overlapped like this.
It was truly an appalling method of an unmanly guy.
[Eat this, inferior species—!]
“Ewat thwis, infwewiow spwecies~★”
[This damn inferior species bitch since earlier…! …Kuh.]
“Oh?”
Huh.
He got scratched.
The pink airhead’s instinct detected that the opponent was scratched, but he controlled his emotions again and flew far away.
Shaaaaat—!!
Dozens of overlapping wave chaos insects rush in again.
At first it was about 20-30, but now it’s become too many to count. If this were a computer game, it would be at a level where even the latest graphics cards would start experiencing frame drops.
“But before me, they’re just practice dummies—☆”
I ground up the regenerating chaos insects in front.
When they rushed in, I smashed their heads, when they ran away, I stabbed their butts with my spear.
Those that became bloody pancakes revived again by slowly regenerating…
But who am I?
The pink airhead of the academy city.
‘No one escapes from a pink airhead’s mischief.’
I lifted my leg high and stomped hard on the ground.
“Yah—☆ Taste a maiden’s dance—☆”
At the same time, the ground within a 50 meter radius shook and vibrated. In an instant, like pulling out a tablecloth, vibrations spread through the dirt ground.
Kuuung—!!
Rocks flipped over.
Soil rose up.
A great darkness was created from the shock wave.
A tsunami made of dirt engulfed the chaos insects.
Kugugung—!!
“Whoa?!”
“Huh…?!”
Seeing that, the juniors quickly mounted their summons to avoid the shock. They understand signals well because I often made them jump rope normally.
Kuuung—!!
The wave of dirt rushed in to engulf them. The chaos insects were being swallowed into the suddenly created shade.
Shaaaaat—!!
Those that were half regenerated.
They staggered from the pseudo-earthquake and tangled in their half-pancake state.
Those that regenerated awkwardly fell and collided with each other. Yet regeneration forcibly continued.
Kueeeeek—!!
As the wounded parts stuck together, they became grotesquely twisted. Those that became disgusting lumps of flesh flapped and rolled in place.
I tilted my head while watching that sight. I couldn’t understand why that guy was dragging out time indecisively here.
‘Based on the aggro being fully focused on us, it seems
What more is he aiming for…?
At that moment.
A refreshing voice was heard from far away.
It was [Verdant Great Bow] Anna who we had been waiting for.
“Thanks, Clara!! Everyone—!!”
And a huge arrow flying this way.
Deep green… verdant ether was imbued in it.
It was overflowing with the vitality of plants.
Swoosh—!!
When the verdant arrow stuck into the messy dirt ground, countless vines and trees grew. Though it was an illusion made of faintly shining verdant ether… there was definitely physical force.
The huge plant barriers that suddenly appeared isolated the chaos insects.
Kyaaaak—!!
Anna spoke towards us.
“Good work! I’m not late, am I?”
“Oh, you came just in time—☆”
Kuh…
This one knows romance.
I’ll give you 3 pink airhead points.
“Is that guy over there the boss?”
“Yes~☆ By the way, he’s the type that gets scratched if you imitate his words—☆”
“Huh? Scratched? What?”
“His heart—☆”
“…”
Anna came up beside me and patted my shoulder. She was a shining girl in farmer’s attire as always.
And the elf martial arts students who followed her secured the huge plant barrier and shouted.
“Everyone come this way!”
“We’ll help you—!”
“Sisters—!! Hurry and pray!!”
Rota and Kara looked at each other and nodded. Then they looked at me and sent eye signals.
-We can win, right?
-We can win, can’t we?
I winked at those gazes.
Wink—☆
Of course the answer was yes.
Anna quietly murmured while aiming her bow at Goin.
“…What’s that guy’s goal?”
“Who knows—☆ He’s been throwing dirty things at maidens since earlier! He’s really a bad guy—☆”
“…Clara, if I make a simple platform with my ether skill, can you jump up into the air?”
“Oh my—☆ Do you think I can’t~?”
“Heh, that’s right.”
Anna fired the arrow as it was. And she activated her ether skill that makes plants grow.
“[Ydalir]—!!”
Fwooosh—!!
Following that trajectory, yew trees started shooting up from the ground.
The trees instantly grew from the ground, becoming thin pillars about 20 meters tall.
‘If we step on those one by one…!’
Aerial stairs stretching far into the sky.
A means to steal the aerial domain for a very short time.
I ran towards there with a greatsword and spear grasped in both hands. And Anna was following beside me, holding her huge bow.
Tatat!
Clearly, at this rate we’ll reach that guy.
“…”
But that guy still had no intention of coming down from the air.
