Anime, Girlfriend Shokuhou Misaki

"Erica, how are you?"

"Not in good shape. As expected, it's still a bit difficult to be like a king and accomplish the great feat of slaying a god."

Quickly adjusting her expression in the air, Liliana aimed her longbow at the opponent, not daring to relax for even a moment.

Erica had been in close combat with the Sword of Kusanagi, so she had suffered more severe injuries than Liliana.

"Looks like we have to fight to the death."

Erica bit her lip, a decision already made in her heart.

"Servants of the Demon King, it seems you are only this capable."

The black-haired girl's eyes were still vacant, her posture controlled by the sword still full of openings, but her overall strength was far beyond human comparison.

This demigod's swordsmanship was on a level beyond rules.

It pointed the blade at Erica and Liliana, issuing a solemn declaration.

"With the next strike, I will use all my power in my current state. Servants of the Demon King, you should fall under the blade of a god."

Feeling the pervasive killing intent, Erica made up her mind.

"Lily, we have to go all out next, betting our lives, or we're both going to die."

Using healing magic to treat the wound on her abdomen, Erica also lowered her stance, maintaining a thrusting starting position.

"Looks like I probably didn't make it in time for dinner."

"You don't need to do this. Leave the rest to me."

The attack was abruptly interrupted, and a Valkyrie in pure white armor, with snow-white skin, long silver hair, and wielding dual swords, appeared directly in front of Erica.

This was someone she didn't recognize at all.

Erica almost subconsciously turned her gaze towards Liliana.

But Liliana's expression was similar to hers, no different.

It was clear that she didn't know either, with a bewildered expression.

"Who are you? We don't know you at all."

Liliana's heart was filled with deep wariness. Since Erica didn't know her and she didn't know her either, it was impossible to let her guard down against such a sudden appearance.

"Don't worry, in terms of sincerity, my position is very similar to yours."

As she spoke, the silver-haired Valkyrie turned her gaze towards Kuina Kiyoaki, or rather, the divine sword named "Sword of Kusanagi."

"Although I don't know why, I feel a deep-seated disgust towards you from the bottom of my heart."

"This aura is far from ordinary."

The Sword of Kusanagi gripped the divine sword in its hand, its heart sinking suddenly.

The person in front of it was highly likely to be a Godslayer. It was indeed an Unsubordinate God, but it was at most a subordinate god of Susanoo. It was Susanoo's sword that became famous after Susanoo became a god, thus ascending to godhood.

In that state, it was only the strongest when held in Susanoo's hands.

Letting it fight on its own, even against the weakest Unsubordinate God, it probably wouldn't be a match, let alone the fact that it wasn't in a possessed state in the netherworld now.

It could only exert about half of its strength.

"You gave me bad memories, so let's make it simple. Let me cut you in two."

The intense killing intent made Erica and Liliana, who were close to Edelweiss, instantly feel a chill, and they shivered.

"Tch, troublesome."

The Sword of Kusanagi frowned, its back foot forcefully stomping on the ground, shattering it directly, and the whole person shot out like a cannonball.

The powerful force exploded instantly, and the resulting speed increased geometrically.

The movements were still crude, but this strike was a display of pure force.

"That way of swinging a sword is really too ugly."

Edelweiss sighed softly, shrugging helplessly, as if strolling leisurely in a courtyard, turning and moving.

With a flash, a straightforward thrust without any skill was easily dodged by Edelweiss.

Then, Edelweiss, now standing beside the Sword of Kusanagi, moved her hand.

Like a beautiful comet streaking across the universe, a dazzling white light flashed clearly.

Fast!

Too fast, too fast to dodge at all.

Even if it could completely control this body, it couldn't dodge at this speed. The person in front of it was extremely skilled in swordsmanship, controlling the physical body to its limit, a Godslayer.

"Clang!"

A huge storm erupted from the broken blade of the Sword of Kusanagi, and the spiraling airflow rushed into the sky, breaking through the lead-gray clouds caused by the collision of the sun.

"Clang——!"

Born from the tail of the Yamata no Orochi that ravaged the entire Japan, regarded as a sword by Susanoo-no-Mikoto, and one of the three divine artifacts of East Asian civilization, the Kusanagi Sword fell into the dirt like trash.

Fluorescent lights flickered, accompanied by the unique special effect of an Unsubordinate God's departure, and the divine sword that once dominated a region disappeared just like that.

"Looks like it's over. When did you get back, Little Ai?"

Just then, another voice sounded in the center of the battlefield.

With the opening of a pitch-black gap, Sincerity Haramura stepped out of the gap, placing one hand directly on Edelweiss's shoulder.

"Just now. I deduced the information from Pluto, so I immediately came back to support you."

The Valkyrie, who had been so heroic just now, now had two red clouds floating on her face because of such a simple action from Sincerity Haramura.

"Grown quite a bit. Have you completed what you wanted?"

Sincerity Haramura chuckled, retracted his hand, moved his steps to Edelweiss's front, and looked at her with a smile.

"It's completed. This time, I can definitely help you."

Edelweiss nodded lightly.

The high-intensity battle had allowed her body to enter a state of rapid evolution again. Now she had the confidence to become Sincerity Haramura's strength.

"Actually, that kind of thing doesn't matter at all, but it's always a good thing."

Sincerity Haramura stretched out his hand again, gently stroking Edelweiss's head, and then Sincerity Haramura turned around, looking at his two already battered Valkyries.

"Looks like this kind of battle is still a bit too much for you guys."

Sincerity Haramura shook his head gently, and above his palm, green healing waves spread out, enveloping Liliana and Erica.

"King, I…"

Hearing these words, Erica's expression changed instantly, and she eagerly wanted to explain something, but Sincerity Haramura's finger blocked her lips.

"Relax, I'm not blaming you. I'm just blaming myself for not being accurate enough in my judgment. I didn't expect to put you in this kind of crisis."

"But it's okay, you'll soon have the opportunity to improve your strength."

"By my side, as long as you work hard enough, you won't be buried."

The mental journey of the two Valkyries could not be hidden from Sincerity Haramura. Counseling them at this time was what he should do.

Otherwise, many things would not be understood, and keeping them in your heart for too long would only cause problems.

"Now let me introduce you."

"Little Ai, Edelweiss."

Sincerity Haramura reached out and waved towards Edelweiss, and Edelweiss immediately came to Sincerity Haramura's side.

"Like you, she's also my Valkyrie. She's not a Godslayer either, but you've already witnessed her power, right?"

"So what I said is all true."

Edelweiss also nodded in cooperation with Sincerity Haramura, and then said.

"My name is Edelweiss, please give me your guidance."

Liliana and Erica looked at each other.

"Erica Blandelli, please give me your guidance."

"Liliana Kranjcar, please give me your guidance."

At least these three people seemed to have a friendly exchange, but he couldn't control what other thoughts Erica and Liliana had.

"What should we do next? Are we going to find the owner behind this sword?"

Edelweiss turned around and slashed out directly, the solidified aura tore through the sky and the earth, plowing a deep gully in the ground while completely defeating the spiraling storm on the ground.

"Of course. I won't easily let go of those who have schemed against me like that."

"But now we have to lock down his location."

…

In the serene and pure land of the netherworld, this is the place where gods live in seclusion.

A storm raged in the stormy sky. In the old wooden house, a burly man sat by the stove, watching the steam boiling in the pottery pot, taking sips of the wine in his pot.

The sweet and delicious divine wine that could have been drunk for a day now tasted like chewing wax, without the usual flavor.

"Lord…"

"Your guesses have all failed."

From the shadows, transformed from illusion to reality, a beautiful woman in a brightly colored, elaborate twelve-layered kimono slowly walked out.

She wore wooden clogs on her feet, and the white socks and the slightly exposed ankle skin complemented each other, forming a subtle and perfect match.

Princess Sita looked at Susanoo in front of her with great concern, her tone very heavy.

"That's right, even your beloved sword has been broken. That Godslayer will not let us go."

The black-clad archmage also came here. They were closely watching the battle and were very clear about the current situation.

The fear in his heart had reached its limit.

"But that can't be helped, can it?"

"At that time, we could only make such a choice. In order to increase the weight, I even sacrificed my beloved sword."

A wry smile also appeared on Susanoo's lips.

"My beloved sword has followed me for centuries. Giving it to Kiyoaki was also hoping to use the help of the Sword of Kusanagi to allow Kiyoaki to occupy an important position in the heart of that new king, so that he can make profits for us."

"However, the facts have proved that this choice of mine was completely wrong."

When the Monkey God used the Covenant Great Law, but was still suppressed by Sincerity Haramura, Susanoo had already realized it, realized that he had to make a new choice, so he immediately sent out Kuina Kiyoaki.

Let Kuina Kiyoaki take root in the forces of this new king to ease the awkward relationship between them and the new king.

This plan was actually reasonable. For a young man who has been a Godslayer for a constantly long time, beauty and power should be enough to ease this unnecessary conflict.

The conflict between them was not that serious yet.

But he was terribly wrong. This one didn't care at all in his heart, he just wanted to kill them.

Even his divine weapon, the Sword of Kusanagi, which was used to protect himself, was broken. This deal was a loss to grandma's house.

Crack.

The antique wine cup made of ceramic was directly crushed by Susanoo, and the wine was directly spilled on his pants.

The land god of Izumo, the mood of this Hayasasasurahiko-no-Susanoo-no-Mikoto, was quite bad.

"I already know the purpose of your coming here."

"Whether you want to run or want to do something else, it's up to you."

Throwing away the fragments of the wine cup in his hand, like a magic trick, he took out a brand new wine bottle filled with wine from the void and opened the bottle cap.

"I won't specifically go out to find that guy's trouble. Next, I will honestly stay in the netherworld and retire completely."

"But in the same way, I won't run either. If he comes to my door, then I will be helpless. Do you understand?"

Sita and the black-robed archmage looked at each other and nodded.

"That's good."
