Chapter 523 Soaring Flesh and Blood
(A flock of Gii-kun. Moreover, they are about twice as big as my Gii-kun. If they suck my blood, I’m sure they’ll take a considerable amount of blood. If that’s the case, I should defeat them before they suck my blood!)
Haruna released her hand from the Doggan Staff that was caught by Vakala. While keeping her distance from the bats, she intercepts them with her fists. No matter how fast and irregularly they fly, the larger the target, the easier it’s to hit. She continues to kill them one by one without fail with her Unique Skill, and at the same time, she’s keeping a vigilant eye on Vakala. Haruna’s head is clear now, partly because of the 『Calculation』 skill.
「Hou, I sent them at that close range, but you were able to destroy all of them without getting hurt.」
Just after Haruna’s fist pierced the last bat, Vakala spoke to her while looking impressed. The arms of the armor, which is Akira’s body, should have been cut off, but like the head part, there are black mist arms, and one of them is holding the Doggan Staff that Haruna just let go of. Perhaps due to the characteristic of the Doggan Staff that it only accepts Haruna’s magic power, the misty hand is in a very unstable state.
「You’re very quick to make judgment and choose the best option on the spot. It’s enough to make me think again that I want to take you as my disciple. Now, what are you going to do?」
「Mu…」
Haruna took one arm, and in return, her weapon was taken away. However, black mist is overflowing from the arms parts, no, from the damaged parts of the armor to cover the loss.
「Are you curious about this mist? Well, I guess so. To be honest, I’m still checking its ability. I’ve never seen Kira display something like this in front of me before. Well, I think it’s some kind of Unique Skill.」
「Why don’t you check it out on the status screen?」
「Fuhaha, I won’t make such an opening. You’re going to attack in the meantime, aren’t you?」
「If there is an opening, I will do so. So, Bidove Advas!」
「Whoa!?」
Haruna’s magic was released from the Doggan Staff in Vakala’s hand. A purple liquid bullet was suddenly generated in front of the black staff and leaped toward Vakala.
(She used her axe as a medium to perform a magic attack from zero distance, huh! Did she prepare it before letting go of her weapon, or is it that she’s so adept at handling magic…? Either way, she sure is shrewd!)
Bidove Advas is a great magic that a rotten sea from the point it touches. Vakala didn’t take a direct hit, but the splash slightly touched the armor. He was able to prevent it from spreading by separating the part of the armor it touched, but he was completely outsmarted.
In the meantime, Haruna started her advance again. She lowered her body and approached Vakala with high-speed and irregular movements. At the same moment Vakala avoided the poison, Haruna kicked Vakala’s jaw at high-speed from below outside of his sight.
What Yuna used at this time was a martial art called Taidō, which adds three-dimensional movements such as backflips to karate. The attack came from the unpredictable movements, which made her look like a character from a fighting game. The way Haruna used Taidō was so remarkable that the attack felt fresh even for the Demon King who has lived for thousands of years.

「Nuuh…!」
「It worked!」
The unexpected attack (with the atrocity set) was so hard that Vakala’s body (armor) floated in the air.
(I tried it because he could hold my Doggan Staff, but… it seems that physical attacks still work against the black mist! Then, I can just think of it as a kind of slime that can change shape!)
(Guooh, she’s making incomprehensible movements. I don’t feel pain when I’m possessing this body, but the blow just now was not good. I felt the impact from the jaw transmitted to the whole body. Kira’s body is about to reach its limit. But well… I kind of get it.)
Haruna firmly caught the Doggan Staff that Vakala let go of due to the impact, and she tried to cut Vakala in the air.
「Gii!」
「Whoa!?」
However, something interrupted her. The ones that came in between Haruna and Vakala were the dark bats that were supposed to be defeated earlier. The size was smaller, but their appearance was the same.
When Vakala created the flock of dark bats, he made some of them smaller and hid them in the cracks in the battlefield instead of having them attack Haruna. At that time, Haruna was only watching the dark bats that were coming at her and Vakala. The small dark bats were skillfully made with a small amount of magic power that Haruna’s Magic Power Detection skill couldn’t detect them. They were lurking around the battlefield without her noticing until now, doing something behind the scenes.
「That was a close one, Haruna-chan. If the attack had hit me, Kira’s body wouldn’t have been able to withstand it. But, it’s going to be a little tough from here.」
While Haruna was intercepting the new group of dark bats, Vakala slipped out of the range of her attack. At that time, Haruna saw several dark bats flying around Vakala. In the mouths of these dark bats were pieces of meat from the zombies that had been defeated in the battle with Akira.
「Just now, I secretly had these dark bats suck the blood of the corpses to restore this body’s stamina and magic power. When the blood was absorbed into this body, I was able to grasp Kira’s abilities. The zombie magic that I taught him, his Unique Skill 『Brave Chain』, and this black mist that’s trying to make a human shape―― what my disciple should have done wasn’t to make an army of zombies, but something like this.」
After wiped out the dark bats that were attacking her, Haruna looked in the direction of Vakala. There, a swarm of dark bats, more numerous than expected, gathered and were carrying the flesh and blood of the corpses to him.
「…… What is that?」
「It’s the correct way to use Kira’s power. The black mist is like the blood, and it’s used to mix the power of the allies he controlled, evolving it into even greater power. The strengthening value is far greater than the value of implanting a part of himself into the zombies. I see, it’s an interesting power. Now, Haruna-chan. You were angry because the promising soldiers of this country were used in an inappropriate way. In that case, as an apology, I show you a battle that makes full use of those soldiers.」
As he said so, Vakala’s figure was transformed into an evil Great Demon King who had fused all the corpses of the soldiers who were present here.
