Chapter 7 - Wind, Rain, Wolf
In that instant, Voban released lightning.
The flash descended from the sky. However, Godou caught it directly.
His palm covered with lightning, he had caught the attack as if it was a
baseball. Light erupted from his hand, and waves of heat could be felt.
Strong energy was also being released.
Do not think that you are the only one with power over lightning!
Feeling joy that he could finally counterattack, Godou relaxed the corner of
his lips, and threw the ball of thunder back.
"—What?"
As expected of the one who could direct wind, rain, thunder and lightning.
With the sound of rumbling, the old king deflected the path of the lightning
which should have gone straight.
"So that is also your power, boy! To think you even had this level of battle
ability...!"
Due to the joy of battle, Voban's expression was radiant.
Godou nodded silently.
This was a power that he did not have the capacity to use alone. Despite
Godou's battles till now, this was a power which would never have
awakened without the victory wishes of those who were defeated by
Voban.
—The will to defeat that man.
—The wish to stop the old man, and the hope to seal him.
Numerous people were asking, begging, praying, hoping—the power of
feelings, the power of hearts was concentrated here and formed a vortex
like a hurricane. Godou could now hear them clearly.
The voices of lost souls gathered here.
And that was not all.
There were the cries of the souls who were finally released after the
[Sword] severed Osiris' power of domination.
They did not know where they would go henceforth.
Heaven, hell, underworld, nirvana, temple of salvation, or promised land...
These souls would probably be directed to their final resting place
according to their various religions and cultures. It must be so. However to
these souls, their final wish was to witness their enemy's demise—the old
king who had enslaved them for so long.
Furthermore, Godou not only sensed the feelings of the dead.
—Worrying about the intense thunderstorm and violent winds.
—Fear of the constant roaring of thunder started just now.
—Concerns of the giant shadow seen for an instant outside the window...
That form of a monstrous dog, and doubting their own sanity.
— Within the typhoon, there appeared to be some kind of gang fight, and
the feeling of being scared to death.
Even the feelings of the residents nearby could be felt clearly.
Godou originally thought that there would be very few people outside due
to the weather and the strange happenings, but to think that there were so
many people around here. This caused him to worry, because he wanted
to keep collateral damage to a minimum.
Amongst the vortex of thoughts and feelings, Godou focused on those
closer to him.
—The feelings of the girl who worried about Godou's body, and prayed for
his safe return with all her heart.
—The heart of the noble maiden who risked all her courage to beg for
Godou's victory.
After making contact with Yuri and Erica's hearts, power flowed out as if
without limit. Within the body of the Campione, it was as if new life was
infused, it would be too shameful to lose now!
"Grant me power! Grant me the power to defeat Voban!"
Godou shouted, his arm raised towards the sky.
At the same time, the sky was layered with the heavy thunderclouds
summoned by Voban. There was no lack of weapons!
The sound of thunder. Lightning descended from the sky continuously.
Verethragna's ninth form was the [Goat]. This form allowed one to listen to
the hearts of the people, and wield thunder as weapons.
The lightning summoned from the sky was captured just as it was about to
explode in front of Godou, and gave off sparks.
The thunder that should have crashed upon the ground halted, and then
began to gather.
The energy of light and heat was released all at once.
Faced with the wave of thunder and lightning swarming him like a turbulent
flow, the old Campione exercised his own authorities, and through the
exploding flashes of light, the two [Kings] vied for supremacy.
Intending to defeat the old man with thunder was Godou, while Voban was

trying to push the thunder away.
Neither side was winning.
No, Godou had the advantage, and the rapid thunderstrike engulfed
Voban.
However, the old man's body only received minor burns, and could endure
longer. He was just barely able to avoid his vitals from being struck directly
by the thunder and lightning that should have consumed him completely,
bones and all.
"...Looks like you've created something that imitates a lightning rod, old
man."
Godou laughed loudly, but he was counterattacked at that instant.
Mixed with raindrops a whirlwind swept over, forming a mini hurricane
which swallowed Godou.
"By the power of the spell words, I sing the hymn to victory!"
Godou used Verethragna's hymn to raise his magical power.
Enduring the force of Voban's hurricane, Godou consumed his magical
power. If it was Godou in the past, he would have been swept into the sky
and dropped down to the ground forcefully.
However he was now able to escape the hurricane.
Similar to the way Voban defended against the lightning, just as Godou
was engulfed by the wind, he struggled to maintain his form, not letting his
feet hover more than a few dozen centimeters off the ground.
Magical power strengthened spells and authorities from afar.
After taking the [Goat]'s form, what used to be most difficult to control,
could be performed much faster and more skillfully than before.
"You... That is a mage technique. To suddenly awaken such an ability, you
really are a reckless fellow, there is neither rule nor reason to your
authorities!"
"I really don't want to hear criticisms from someone like you!"
Godou replied unhappily to Voban's questioning.
Though they both realized that defeating the other was not an easy task,
the two kings released lightning simultaneously.
In the red-hot battle of thunder, the intense but fruitless shooting match
began.
Part 4
"The power to control lightning... Kusanagi Godou's authority is based on
the powers of Verethragna's ten forms, right? So which form is it?"
"Ah? Amakasu-san!? You came?"
With the cessation of corpse activity, the battlefield had turned into a one
on one duel between Godou and Voban.
Discovering the History Compilation Committee member who popped up
suddenly, Yuri was caught by surprise.
"Yes, actually I was here watching from the start... Eh? This is a power not
mentioned in the Greenwich report."
"Looks like it. This is also the first time for me to see it—probably it was a
form awakened just now."
The one who answered was Erica. Liliana walked over to her side.
In the overly dangerous battle between [Kings], they had kept a safe
distance, watching over Godou from afar.
Godou and Voban were firing electrical attacks at each other in an intense
battle.
I am willing.
Hearing the answer, Godou nodded.
Neither a lone person nor merely three people. In fact, all those gathered
present were Voban's enemies and they lent Godou their power.
How could he lose now!?
—Turning to dust and returning to the earth, these [Dead Servants]
lingered here as souls.
They appeared out of the darkness once again, returning above ground in
their corpse form.
"—What! How can it be the servants!?"
Voban's eyes were wide with surprise.
However, it was too late. Voban had underestimated their existence.
Fueled by their anger and hatred towards the old king, these revived
servants numbered in the dozens.
The majority of these were magi when alive, and amongst them were
masters of their craft equal to Erica and Liliana. They also melded their
powers with Godou's magic.
Godou's magical power was able to resist Voban's thunder, and gradually
expanded as if it was going to burst.
—Finally, the extremely powerful lightning changed its trajectory.
The wrath of the thunder god which should have consumed Godou, Erica
