Gate Guardian - Song Of The Frozen Soul 197 The Hobo Is The Anti-God Fighting Machine

THE HOBO IS THE ANTI-G.o.d FIGHTING MACHINE

Blue Surtr's flames danced as the strong breeze of wind comes by. Helena's tattered cape and her pony-tailed blue hair waved as well as if they are commending one another in this final stage of their fight.

"You've just changed the color palettes of your flames from red to blue. You're still weak." Helena smirked with malice as she tilted her head. "Surrender now, baby brother. I don't want to hurt you anymore."

"Shut up! I've been waiting for so long to fight you, Big Sis! There's no way I will concede!" Blue Surtr unleashed dark blue flames on his sword, and his giant skull s.h.i.+eld is now breathing flames.

"You're so hard-headed, baby brother." Helena chuckled. She swung her sword left and right, ready to resume the battle at any moment.

"Hrrraaaaaagh!!!" Blue Surtr made the charge with his s.h.i.+eld in front.

"!!!" Helena made a barrage of consecutive sword slashes in the air, and several electric sonic waves bashed through the flame giant's s.h.i.+eld.

Blue Surtr coated his s.h.i.+eld with larger flames to cancel out those blitz wave. When he finally closed the distance, he opened up his defenses and unleashed a barrage of killing blows!

"!!!"

Each and every slash he made are coated with destructive blue flames that were caught by Helena's .

One, two, three blows. It never had any effect on Helena's absolute s.h.i.+eld.

Four, five, six blows. Blue Surtr's slashes only made a series of strong flame shockwaves.

Seven, eight, nine blows. Helena's s.h.i.+eld started to crack.

"How the h.e.l.l did you-" Helena failed to finish her sentence.

Ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen blows, and a loud shattering gla.s.s can be heard! Helena's impenetrable divine s.h.i.+eld has been destroyed!

spells are powerful magic that defies logic and reasoning. It's a singularity in the universe that can only be made by persons who have nigh-infinite willpower. It can do impossible feats such as killing immortals and destroying indestructible s.h.i.+elds.

Aside from that, Heushac also used a forbidden spell that is . His transformation as Blue Surtr made it certain that he can match the power of the divine mythical G.o.ds. By using the power up and special attack altogether, there's no surprise why Heushac or Blue Surtr managed to destroy her .

Heushac Efilion is now an anti-G.o.d fighting machine.

"Rrrrrrraaaaaaaahhh!!!" Blue Surtr's sixteenth strike connected, which is a direct stab to Helena's chest!

In the nick of time, Helena used her robotic arm to catch the buster sword attack. But the force of the flame giant made it possible for her to be launched to the air!

"Gah!" Helena cried.

The cursed swordswoman regained her balance in the air, and she managed to land on both of her feet. Enraged, she made a battle cry.

"To push a divine warrior to his limits like this… IMPOSSIBLE!!! I SHALL DESTROY YOU WITH ALL MY MIGHT!!!"

Helena has completely lost her reasoning. She's now determined to not just to kill, but to eliminate her brother's existence!

The mad sword princess unleashed the G.o.d Cores from her chest and those orbs started to revolve around her mechanical arm. Then, she switched her sword to that said cursed robotic hand.

"Tri-G.o.d Core, Installed!"

The moment Helena shouted those words, the three G.o.d Cores a.s.similated with her mecha arm. Then, the mecha arm coated the sharp buster sword for it to transform into a blue gigantic blade!

Helena raised the divine sword attached on her arm and charged a golden pillar of light. With full force, she unleashed every ounce of strength on her last attack!

"!!!"

A bluish existence-termination blaster was unleashed from the gigantic blade of the divine sword princess.

"!!!"

Blue Surtr responded with all his strength left. He smashed the tip of his skull s.h.i.+eld on the ground, and the s.h.i.+eld bathed with excessive blue flames. There was a spiral fire that was unleashed from that very s.h.i.+eld that collided with Helena's ultimate attack!

The whole dimension of Yami is trembling. Rocks around the place started to float as if the gravity has already ceased to exist due to the extreme force of impact. Two blinding blasters of light clashed to each other.

They are both giving it their all, and their lives depend on it. Only their willpower can match their deafening shout to each other.

"HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!"

When the clash of blasters subsided, we bystanders were left inside piles rubble. Good thing I managed to cast and everybody went behind me. I removed the giant rocks that buried us one by one until we finally dug out of the ruined lands.

Everybody coughed due to the dust filing their noses. As for the moment, we can't see the two sword siblings on the dense dusty smoke.

"Everybody all right?" Rikkun asked as he looked around.

"Y-Yeah…" Most of the Aether Crusade answered.

"Let's have a roll call. Say present if you are well and fine." Rikkun said. "Tiara?"

"P-Present!" I said as I raised my hand.

"Key?"

"Present," Key said in a monotone.

"Good. Everybody well and fine." Rikkun nodded, completely ignoring the other members. "Now let's continue on watching the fight."

"Hey, what about us!?" Eliseo, Emily, and Asumi-nee protested. "Don't you care about us!?"

"n.o.body cares about side characters." Rikkun rudely and coldly commented.

Everybody groaned. Rikkun is so rude to them! But I am here to cheer them up!

"Don't worry, side characters! I'll punch Rikkun's nose later for your justice~"

When the smoke faded, the two swordsmen revealed themselves.

The battle is over.

But...

...The two of them are still standing.

They are both in their exhausted base human forms. The flame giant is back to being Heushac, and Helena is no longer using the G.o.d Cores. They already depleted all their pranas and their life force can disappear at any moment. It's like both of them have one hitpoint left on their health bars.

Heushac's form is so pitiful. His complexion is now darker as if he was roasted and suffered in a first-degree burn on all parts of his skin. On the other hand, Helena has this scratches and burns all over her body and torn bodysuit armor. There's a lot of potential wardrobe malfunction on her chest and her legs. But what's the most noticeable on her features is that her mechanical arm is no more. It must have melted due to the explosion.

There was a strong breeze of wind.

One fell down.

It was Heushac. He's no longer conscious.

Everybody was silent.

"Heh." Helena chuckled, her crimson eyes still giving off a cursed glare. "Baby brother… You surpa.s.sed the power of three mighty G.o.ds..."

Helena slowly dragged her sword with her remaining left hand as she walked towards her fallen brother.

Clank. Clank. Clank. Her footsteps echoed, followed by the vibrating metal of her blade.

When she's already close enough, she raised her sword with her weakening arm, ready to thrust her sibling's heart.

"...But just defeating the G.o.ds is not enough. I'm still stronger, baby brother."

Helena already cemented her resolve.

She's really going to kill her brother.

But an unfamiliar shout made her change her mind.

"Helena, stop!"
