Chapter 73 – Consequence of Evil Nature
The golden aura emanating from Excalibur was pure intensity, and when Raynare stood up with the sword, I immediately realized that its power had been amplified.
Raynare slung the sword over her shoulder and began to radiate an aura of contempt again, as if she had suddenly regained all her lost confidence.
"You're finished now, you bastard!" Raynare shouted with a fury that seemed to have been revived by the flames of the sword. "This is the true power of a fallen angel! Look what I can do now!" She raised Excalibur above her head, as if about to deliver the final blow that she believed would bring her victory.
'This is going to be tricky...' I thought.
Although my body was resistant, I knew that a single direct blow from this blade could be fatal, even for someone of my current strength.
{Boost!} Ddraig's scream echoed in my mind as a reminder that I was not alone in this fight.
So I activated Scale Mail. The red, metallic plates began to cover my body, one by one, like a second skin. Each segment of the armor vibrated with the accumulated power of the boosts I had received, making me not only stronger, but more resilient than ever. The Scale Mail was my ace up my sleeve, the protection that could keep Excalibur from tearing me to shreds.
Raynare's eyes widened at the sight of my armor. But instead of flinching, she gave me her grim smile again. "You think this armor will save you? Nothing can stop the power of Excalibur!" She shouted and flew at me.
The blade came down in a deadly arc, slicing through the air with a terrifying whirr. I blocked the attack with my Scale Mail-covered forearm, feeling the impact reverberate through my body. Excalibur's power was overwhelming, but the Scale Mail held and absorbed the shock.
'This armor is made from the scales of the mightiest dragon! I expected nothing less!'
{Of course, I'm amazing, Leo!}
Still, the holy blade left a visible mark on the armor, proving that the sword's power was not to be underestimated.
Before Raynare could attack again, I moved, taking advantage of her moment of hesitation. I turned my body and fired a blow at her abdomen, using the power of the Boosted Gear and a small explosion to amplify the impact. It threw her far away, and she only stopped when she used her wings to balance herself in the air.
"You think you can beat me?" Raynare shouted, raising her sword again. "I am a fallen angel! I am a superior being, made to dominate! You are nothing but a devil, a filthy, despicable creature!" She advanced again, attacking with blind fury.
"Silence." Kokabiel's voice was relentlessly cold. "You failed. You used a power that was not meant for you, and now you will pay the price for your arrogance. I gave you a clear command, my subjects. Yet you disobeyed. Excalibur was to be used when our Chimera was born."
"B-but... I..."
"No 'but'. I'll give you a quick end as a reward for your services. Die."
With a snap of his fingers, Kokabiel made an extremely powerful light spear appear under Raynare's head. She had neither the strength nor the time to react before it crushed her like nothing.
"Now, bearer of the Red Dragon Empress, hand over Excalibur and I'll consider sparing your life."
