Chapter 130.2: Resurrection of The Reaper

TL: Henshin!

Reiji readied his sword in his hands and summoned the high-rank spirit of light.

A shining bird appeared like a sun from within the sky that was covered by dark clouds.

「Shining Wing of Radiant Blaze!!」

Bennu flapped its wings the moment Reiji said so.

Its wings of light grew bigger and rained down upon the Evil Gods.

The scream of the Evil Gods could be heard from here.

Even if this move couldn’t defeat them like it did on the great sandworm, it could stun them.

「AND NOW FOR THE COUP DE GRACE!!」

Reiji’s body shot forward to the Evil Gods who got stunned by Bennu’s attack.

He brandished both his swords to the Evil Gods.

「IMPOSSIBLE!!」

「SUCH POWER!!」

「LIKE HELL WE CAN DEFEAT THAT!!」

The Evil Gods escaped in a hurry as Reiji loomed toward them.

Diadona and co aside, even Harsesh and co were really surprised seeing Reiji’s power.

「THE HECK?!! THOSE GUYS ARE NO MATCH AT ALL AGAINST THE HERO!!」

「Indeed, Harsesh-sama. I also did not expect the Hero of Light to be this powerful. Maybe his strength is on par with Alphos.」

Ishtar laughed happily hearing Harsesh and Isdes’ conversation.

「As expected. In this situation, Reiji alone might be able to solve our predicament.」

I agreed with Ishtar.

I hope that was the case.

「WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!! OUR ENEMY IS ALONE!!」

Diadona shouted at the other Evil Gods.

She was brimming with anger.

「HERO!! YOUR OPPONENT IS ME!!」

Labrys raised a scream as he swung his giant, twin-headed ax.

「Whoopsie!!!」

Alas, Reiji easily dodged that attack.

「You think that kind of attack can hit me!! LIGHT BLAST!!」

Reiji’s flash-like slash assaulted Labrys.

「GUAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!! DAMMIT!!!!」

Despite being stronger than Reiji in terms of physical strength, Reiji’s speed was much faster than Labrys.

And since we’re not inside the labyrinth, Reiji’s advantage was even more imminent when fighting in the open field.

「What’s the matter Labrys?!! Is that all you’ve got?!!」

Reiji let out a daring smile as he spoke.

「If you’re really asking to die, I shall kill you with the flame of moroch!!」

「Not so fast!!! LIGHT WINGS SUNDERING HEAVEN!!」

Reiji lowered his stance and then sprung toward Labrys like a spring.

「GUWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!」

The pitiful Labrys got blown away before he could even use his flame of moroch.

Sounds of cheers rose from the mummies, birdfolk and dogfolk upon seeing Reiji’s strike.

「Who’s next?!! Is that all you’ve got?!!」

「It might be the power of Eclipse. That superior spirit of darkness not only eats light, but it also weakens its target. In fact, our powers might have weakened too.」

Totona gave her usual explanation.

Come to think of it, my breath did quicken.

My stamina might be dwindling bit by bit.

When I was looking around, I saw that the birdfolk, dogfolk, and the mummies had already collapsed from exhaustion.

So our power really was getting sucked out.

Harsesh and Isdes seemed to be fine but their combat power was less than usual.

「Wait a minute!! This means all of us are in danger!!」

The tables had turned on us.

When I looked at the battle again, I saw Reiji being pushed back by Zarxis.

「GUWAAAAAAAAAAAA!!」

Reiji’s body blasted on the sand after being sent flying by Zarxis’ attack.

He tried to prop himself up, but his condition seemed to be more serious.

「No way!! Reiji got defeated!! Do you have a plan to get out of this situation, Totona-chan?!!」

Ishtar asked Totona in a hurry.

But, I think that not even Totona could turn the tides of the battle.

「Humph, that’s all you got after that big talk huh!! Giltar!! It’s your turn!! Finish him off!!」

The moment Zarxis said so, Giltar came out from the crowd.

「HAHAHAHA!! Thank you!! Now the Hero of Light’s head is mine!! Blame yourself for stealing the heavenly beauty from me, Hero of Light!!」

Giltar pointed the giant pincers that came from his back at Reiji.

Oh no, at this rate, Reiji would die.

「Don’t worry, Ishtar-sama. I have a strong ally on my side.」

Totona muttered while pointing in Reiji’s direction.

「Eh? Medjed?」

Or to be exact, at Medjed who stood between Reiji and Giltar.

Wait, since when did he move over there?

I mean, even I failed to notice the moment he moved over there.

「Who in the hell is this funny looking guy?!!」

Giltar was caught off guard by the sudden appearance of the intruder.

And he wasn’t the only one who was surprised.

Both Zarxis and Diadona had also failed to catch the moment when Medjed moved to that place.

「It’s you right?!! THE BASTARD WHO DARED TO HURT SHIRONE!!!」

Medjed roared in anger.

This was the first time I heard Medjed’s voice. And it was a familiar voice on top of that.

Suddenly, Medjed’s body was wrapped in black flame.

That black flame then vanished.

Leaving behind a figure clad in jet-black armor.

「Y-YOU MUST BE KIDDING ME?!!!」

I only realized this fact now.

The identity of Medjed, and the owner of that WMD size.

「No way?!!! THE DARK KNIGHT?!!!」

Zarxis roared.

Everyone’s attention was completely focused on Medjed.

Everyone was looking silently at the aloof figure of the Dark Knight.
