Tensei Shitara Slime Datta

Chapter 243: The Resolute Battle at the Peak pt3

A great shock flowed down Velda's arm as he stopped Milim's super-fast sword.

It had more power than Velda expected and he ended up failing to block it. And as proof of that, the Sword Snake Velda broke.

Looking at the broken sword in her hand, Velda seemed distracted for the first time.

And then, angry.

"God ... Really, you're a constant barrier …"

Velda muttered, looking exasperated now and attacking Milim with that wave of anger. But, Milim brushed it off casually. In fact, with an expression of displeasure on his face, Milim began to attack continuously.

He continued to attack Velda continuously with a strong desire to crush his opponent, ignoring whatever they were thinking or planning.

And his speed increased with each attack, starting to chase after Velda's movements.

Velda dodged Milim's attack but slowly he lost his composure.

Even Velda was unable to fully bear Milim's attack without a weapon.

"Disturb!"

Velda put his hands together and shouted 'Gods' Sword Creation '.

A crack appeared in the space between Velda's hand and a sword appeared.

Gods' Word – Abyss – although slightly lower in rank among the swords and magic swords of the Gods, it was a complete weapon of Gods.

Velda was able to produce a God weapon using his own abilities.

And begin the sword dance.

Due to Velda and Milim's sword fight, the air around them was disturbed, piercing whatever it touched.

Milim finally reached Velda's level.

On the battlefield of death that did not allow anyone to intervene, Milim put everything into his sword and cornered Velda as each of his attacks became stronger than the last.

And in response to that, Velda is–

Holding back Milim's pure will and feeling his plan crumble in front of him.

His advantage in terms of fighting strength was lost and the current situation was that he was being cornered.

And even though he could not kill Milim because he needed her alive, it was getting harder for him to hold back due to the explosive increase in Milim's strength.

It was not that he had no other choice, but his pride prevented him from executing it.

However, now that it had come to this, there was no time to say such things.

Even now, from the exchange of sword impacts, he could tell that his pressure had increased the notch anymore.

Taking advantage of the gap in Velda's consciousness, Milim's kick struck Velda's stomach.

(–So troublesome.)

Velda spewed blood and renewed his mind.

Milim was needed for Velda's purposes no matter what and he couldn't possibly kill him.

Therefore, if she fought with him like this, there was a fear that Milim would eventually become strong enough to truly rival him …

Besides…

As if they were preparing for something unexpected, the two dragon brothers were also observing the battlefield. The Velzado that protected Milim from a while ago was also very annoying.

Even if he tried to neutralize it, it would be impossible for him to break through the defenses of Milim and Velzado.

When he glanced over to the battlefield to see what was going on, he saw that Guy and Rudra had an equal fight.

Damrada and Kondou were also pushed and it seemed like their defeat was also only a matter of time.

(–I think it's time, huh? The all-out Demon Angel War is over.)

Velda has completed the execution of Great Angel-Demon War as Yuuki Kagurazaka's last wish.

They are at a disadvantage but the results have not come out yet.

And precisely because of that, Velda decided on his own.

He would achieve his goal at once using all the power he possessed.

◆◆◆

Diablo took his stance in a calm manner and looked at Damrada.

Only by cultivating his memories would he be able to use the same ability since he was alive.

The energy was also much greater and the grand prize was also recreated.

Even when he calculated it simply, Diablo could feel the energy double from it.

(Kufufu, that's great. I have no complaints about him as an opponent.)

Diablo thanked him for his luck.

He diligently devotes himself to work to be useful to his master, Rimuru.

Developing a new magic fighting skill or polishing was something that almost all of Rimuru's subordinates did.

But it was different for Diablo.

He observed Rimuru's experiments with new movements or techniques.

But this is not something anyone can do. These new skills had terrifying strength and even when restraining, they could affect a lot.

Diablo was one of the few creatures that could monitor the experiment calmly.

And, while accompanying Rimuru in this senseless experiment, her magic theory had become much more refined than before and she could feel herself becoming stronger.

That's right – the fact is the amount of energy you have doesn't measure how strong you are.

What matters is the application.

Getting rid of excess energy and using only the smallest amount necessary to create the biggest effect – is what matters most.

Although it is different if you have an endless supply of mana like Milim but using irrational beings in comparison would be wrong.

And for this reason, Damrada is the perfect opponent for Diablo.

From Diablo's diagnosis, if Damrada and Kondou were both his opponents at the same time, his chances of winning would be slightly more than 50%.

By risking his life and using all his possessions, he could barely see the path to victory.

But if he did that, he would not be able to fulfill Rimuru's orders. If so, there would be no meaning in it.

However, the fact that such concerns are necessary also corresponds to Diablo's prediction.

Veldora and the others had arrived at just the right time.

(As expected of Rimuru-sama.)

Diablo was satisfied as he observed Damrada.

He would have had a hard time if he had brought Damrada and Kondou together but it was a different story altogether if it was only Damrada.

Damrada's energy was twice that of Diablo and his fighting ability exceeded Ultima's.

However, there is no problem.

Because Diablo was a demon and empty-handed fighting was a child's game to him.

Magic is an intrinsic method of battle for demons who are also spiritual beings.

Now that he had the highest ability, his magic made even greater progress.

And now when the amount of energy is not a problem for him anymore and he can use the energy efficiently, he can produce a perfectly aligned effect.

This also applies to empty-handed combat.

Diablo continued to block Damrada's attack by strengthening his own body parts.

He added to the huge mana difference by offsetting Damrada's punches and kicks with magic-enhanced punches and kicks.

It was a complete form of magical hand-to-hand combat, combining abilities and magic.

Testarossa and the others were only captivated by this new method of empty-handed combat.

Even Ultima, while recovering, was watching the battle of Damrada and Diablo with great concentration.

So Diablo decided to get serious.

“I really enjoy this. You are perfect as a training partner, but let's end it now. To repay the kindness of hurting Testarossa and the others, I will fight seriously now. ”

He declared and raised the maximum mana by using the excitation of ultrafast magic.

Diablo energy reached its maximum at once. He also took the same amount of 'Turn Null' from Rimuru. And not only that, he also took out particles from the surroundings and strengthened his body instantly. He reconstructed his formidable body that could even withstand the flow of high density energy.

It all just takes a while to get done.

There was no time lag and Diablo had turned into his battle form.

And that's definitely Diablo's form.

Still upholding that refreshing smile, he easily dealt with Damrada's kick.

Unlike before, Damrada's full-strength kick was now blocked easily by Diablo with one hand.

The reason behind it is simple and clear.

That's because his mana is also doubled now to be the same as Damrada's.

However, when you consider the fact that he fought with the equivalent of even half of that energy, the outcome of that fight is now as clear as day.

“As a human being, you are an amazing expert. If you still have your soul, that fight may be a little more exciting. However, it was just another hypothetical situation. The result will not change– ”

Diablo completely defeated Damrada, destroying all of his attacks.

Damrada continued to repeat his movements indifferently, without emotion.

But all of these attacks were read out by Diablo and he had lost interest in the fight.

"Let's end this– 'Selestial End' !!"

The magic circle covered Damrada's body.

Wordlessly.

Without fear.

Without any sadness.

Damrada just silently turned into particles of light and disappeared.

And, all of these particles return to Diablo through the magic circle.

As soon as Damrada disappeared, Diablo unbuttoned his battle.

Although he used it calmly, the burden of using it for a long period of time was not small.

And on top of the others, Diablo poured the energy he got from Damrada into his 'Trial World. He planned to absorb different types of energy from Rudra slowly, but controlling the zero energy he borrowed from Rimuru simultaneously was a detrimental feat, even to Diablo.

When compared in terms of strength, the End of World was higher but in individual fights, Celestial World was better.

"Diablo, you–"

Testarossa calls Diablo.

"Kufu, kufufuf. I guess, it was a bit greedy for me to steal all that energy .... I still ... nothing near ……. ”

“What ability was that? It looks like magic but– ”

"Absolutely. Magic combination and ultimate ability – an evolutionary form of it. Rimuru-sama developed it for fun and I learned it while working with him. It was not finished yet so using it safely was still difficult. ”

"It's not fair, only you get that …"

“Kufufu, that's one of the side benefits. ”

Diablo answered proudly towards the bitter Testarossa.

After all, this new technique is the magic theory Diablo and his beloved master, Rimuru, created together.

Although, to be exact, it was Ciel who created it and not Rimuru but that was fine for Diablo.

“Alright, when this magic theory is finished, I will also teach you all. ”

In the end, Testarossa and the others did not stop until Diablo promised them.

◆◆◆

Veldora fights Kondou as her opponent.

Velda said that they had the same energy as the ten awakened demon lords but in reality, it did not quite reach that.

As Veldora saw, it didn't even reach half that amount.

In addition, the quality of the best skills also decreased, making Kondou unable to carry out attacks as intended.

Just like Damrada, he was also given the highest prize but in the end, it was none other than the ultimate mass-produced pseudo skill. It was a lower quality that could not even compare to the highest skill that Kondou's soul produced.

The reason why Carrera, who had much less energy, was able to neutralize Kondou's bullet was just that.

"Cih, this won't work either, uh. ”

Kondou clicked his tongue, while testing his energy bullet.

After calmly analyzing the situation, Kondou already understood that he had no chance of winning.

And if so, to carry out Velda's orders, he had no choice but to use all of his abilities.

And vice versa, Veldora has a lot of free space.

"Yahaha! It seems like you have an amazing personality but in the end, you are nothing but a fake. It is only natural that you will not be able to show your full strength with a fake ultimate gift and not your own ultimate skill. ”

Laughing, Veldora told Kondou.

Kondou's strength was a real problem but his current body was only temporary. Moreover, he didn't even have a soul so it wasn't worth considering.

Thus, Veldora observed things and gathered info.

A soulless doll given a temporary ego. However, he had high-level fighting abilities and although inferior, also used the ultimate skill.

Although the concept is different from Rimuru's dolls, it has a very interesting structure.

(Fuffuffu, if I unravel this structure and tell Rimuru, there is no doubt that she will thank you! As Ramiris' teacher, it would also be interesting to research together. I want one sample at least but, let's see–)

Ignoring the fight altogether, Veldora thought of such things.

And thus, even when Diablo easily buried Damrada, Veldora still continued his fight with Kondou.

(Mmm ?! That Diablo, looks like he's sorted out in the end. Then I either have to finish it or they'll find out that I'm lazy.)

Veldora was too easy to think, but it seemed that his decision was a bit too late.

“…. . I saw . Then, as I thought, there is only one way to go, uh– ”

Kondou decided himself without hesitation and acted.

Veldora was extremely strong and Kondou had already realized that he could not win before fighting.

The reason why he was able to land an attack on Veldora's main body when he was alive was because his luck made him countless ……

So, he loyally carried out the orders given to him.

"–'Overdrive '. ”

In other words, self-destruction.

◆◆◆

Velda confirmed that Kondou activated self-destruction mode and only muttered "it will be done".

He glared at the surroundings and slightly smiled.

"What's so funny!?"

Sword Milim chased after Velda but he only rejected her with his 'Abyss.

Velda's skill was so terrifying that he was able to block some of Milim's attacks even with the inferior Snake Sword. And even though Milim was much stronger now, as the difference in weapons was gone, he still could not reach Velda.

And Chloe can't use her full power either.

For one reason.

He had a strange feeling about Velda's ability.

Chloe always moves carefully. In order to move precisely according to the situation, he did not rely solely on his strength.

His basic fighting style was to foresee the future with the King of Yog-oth Sothoth.

However, Chloe could not remember the future now. That means that no matter what happens now, he cannot run back to the past.

(Is there perhaps a skill barrier installed throughout this celestial world? Or is that Velda's individual skill?)

After verifying that his other skill had succeeded without any problems, he came to the conclusion that it might be an inhibitory skill related to space-time skills.

In other words, it meant that they would not be able to escape from this space using teleportation. Also that they cannot enter or exit without using the gate.

It is possible that the angels, as spiritual beings, have this area listed as the point where they can instantly return.

(If it is made in such a way, is this a – trap?)

Just as Chloe was thinking about that, Velda opened her mouth.

"Haha! As expected of the highest ranked creature in this world. To be able to oppose me this much. Very good . I'll be serious too. And yet"

Kondou turned into a particle of light and slowly became a small round ball.

The light particles condensed at the center and suddenly flipped over.

Along with the aurora, super high density energy raged and a small sun materialized in the celestial world.

"Mnnn? !!"

Veldora barely kept it in the country before the explosion with all its power.

However, Veldora's skin color changed for the worse when she held it in and one could tell that her pressure was slowly increasing.

“But – I will only deal with those who can live through this explosion. ”

Saying that, Velda hugged Milim forcefully.

"W-what are you doing, let me go!"

But the jet-black chain that came out from Velda's left hand limited her movements.

'Dark Nebula' – It is a chain made of dark matter, which sucks up all the energy.

Even that explosion or the power of the Milim explosion was not enough to destroy the chain. It was even stronger than the chain that sealed the Dagrule — it was the chain of Gods.

And with the help of this chain, Velda and Milim would be completely shielded from the explosion. However, the others would be left exposed to a direct explosion. A huge explosion created by an energy equivalent to ten awakened demon kings would even exceed the destructive power of a dragon, even if for a moment.

And since it was a simple burst of power, to block it, even more powerful energy was needed.

"Impossible! If only I had managed to get rid of– ”

Veldora moved furiously.

Just before the release of the energy Veldora was holding back, they planned to cooperate and get rid of it.

And others also try to move at once but–

“Don't get me wrong now, okay? The explosion I'm talking about is the one I'm going to launch. Rudra, it's still strange how you can deny me but it's okay now. I'd like to find out why, but you still have a job. ”

Velda said as he looked at Rudra with an evil smile.

"Don't say — you jerk !!"

Guy yelling.

He tried to attack Velda leaving Rudra but was a step too late.

"Goodbye, Rudra. 'Star Break', activate !! ”

And at that moment, everyone froze, as if time had stopped.

An explosion due to Kondou's self-destruction might inflict deep damage on the dragon. And on top of that, if the dragon level energy holder exploded across all boundaries ………

It would definitely produce unimaginable destructive power.

Moreover, in this celestial world, teleportation techniques were closed and therefore they had nowhere to run.

Guy, Velgrynd, and Chloe surrounded Rudra. Velzado, who was moving towards Veldora, also changed direction to move towards Rudra after seeing that the evil spirits would support Veldora.

So, the four of them tried desperately to fight the explosive energy but the process that led to the explosion was much faster–

"Rudra ……"

"Damn it, so this is how this ends .. I don't think I have a choice, Guy. Looks like we won't be able to settle the score between us ……. ”

Rudra said with a silent smile.

And then, slowly muttering, 'You all better stay alive–'.

Soon after, Rudra was covered with extreme lights and–

“Veldora, I leave that to you! Don't fail, you arrest me? "

“Cou – hhahahha! Of course . If I fail here, I will definitely be killed by my sister! "

While Veldora's optimistic voice echoed, a little girl appeared among the four Rudra in the surroundings.

"Eh, Sensei– ?!"

And as soon as Chloe's eyes opened wide in shock, the energy that was supposed to explode curled up into a small ball and subsided over the girl's palm.

And then, the girl smiled widely and said boldly,

"Yo, I'm sorry I kept you waiting!"
