Chapter 347: A Hopeless Battle For... (2)
—
Neji was quite powerful, wearing the Susanoo armor.
Susanoo wasn't strong in itself, but it had great defense and weapons that could deal powerful attacks.
Thankfully, the buffs from Neji's three mana armors spread to the Susanoo too, so the power was further increased.
While normally using Susanoo would make an average Uchiha slow on their feet, it wasn't the case for Neji. Neji was just as strong and fast as without the giant armor, except he was also gigantic and durable.
He was a walking nuclear bomb.
– Boom!
It may be considered a funny or dazzling scene by a few spectators; due to how the small Mordred clashed with the titanic Susanoo, producing fireworks that lit up the night sky. However, it wasn't funny to Neji at all, as Mordred clashed swords with his huge form quite fiercely.
Despite being so little, she was matching Neji.
She didn't have an easy time, it was clear from her expression, but she was doing it.
"Ho! You're stronger than I expected! What sort of power is this? I have never seen anything like it before."
Mordred chatted as she clashed. As an answer, Neji just overpowered her for a moment and threw her back. She flew to the far, flying down from the sky where the fight was taking place, and crashing into a mountain that ceased to exist.
Mordred couldn't fly. She could only be in the sky and fight due to her admittedly impressive firepower and speed, allowing her to kick the air and maintain her spot.
Though the mountain burst into dust and blisters, she got right back up. Her super armor vanished, as her speed increased a few fold without the armor. It was a known fact that her speed increased greatly if she took the armor off.
Then, as if she wasn't damaged at all, she kicked the ground and burst towards the distant stars of the night sky.
Mordred used her exclusive technique, [Mana Burst], and propelled herself to the sky. She could kick the air in this state, but she didn't need to do that as the single kick was enough for her to come near Neji. Her armor resurfaced like magical nano-bots right then.
– Boom!
Another clash happened that resulted in another massive explosion. It was an explosion of multiple forms of energy that scattered everywhere; if it wasn't the sky, it was guaranteed to cause mass destruction.
"Hah! I'll take you out!"
Mordred shouted, feeling a deep surge of excitement rushing through her body and soul.
Neji had to admit this pseudo daughter of his was cracked in the head, but she was strong too. Thê source of this content n/o/v/(el)bi((n))
But...
If only he wasn't his pseudo-daughter.
He could have killed her by now.
Mordred didn't dodge most attacks. She was too prideful for that. So if Neji threw a [Kamui Shuriken] at her, the things that could take out Kaguya, she would be out of the match right away.
But that'd also kill her.
Same with Neji's other attacks, such as [Black Flame] which can even kill one of the immortal tailed-beasts.
"You...! How dare you! What sort of mage craft is this?!"
"This is not how a warrior should fight!"
"You're disrespecting the Knight's Code!"
"You have no honor at all! You're not a King, you're a lowlife bastard!"
Continuing putting Mana Burst into her feet, she continued hovering over the sky to glare at Neji.
Unfortunately, she couldn't glare long. Neji could feel that she would be able to call her armor back in no time, so he moved quickly.
Canceling the Susanoo, Neji used his smaller form to deal with her. He channeled all the power of his Eighth Gate, Mana Mode, and Lightning Armor, to his legs— he kicked her in the gut.
Wind burst from the movement, creating multiple tornados in the far.
"Keuk-"
The kick landed in her mid-section and the pacifier in her face spat out due to the force she felt inside her.
Neji had to actively use telekinesis to hold her in her spot, rather than letting her fly countries away.
The kick created a vortex in her belly, causing her to choke on air for a second.
Then, her eyes lost their color and she lost consciousness.
"Phew."
Neji caught her in his arms before she could fall to her death. Without mana actively strengthening her body, she wasn't that strong.
Looking down at her face, she could see a hint of Ryukyu. It wasn't obvious, but since Ryukyu did take over Artoria, the two of them surely shared some similarities in appearance. And that had been passed onto this girl, too.
Sighing a little, feeling a little weird at all this, Neji opened a portal to his Gate of Babylon. The golden portal of circular color manifested and shimmered gently.
The portal led to a separate area far from the treasury, as he could expand that dimension at will. Not hesitating even for a moment, he threw her in there for now.
"Sisty, time should be paused in there, right?"
[That should be the case. Unless you go there yourself, or even bring someone with you—like when you did with Da Vinci—time in that space is always on hold. It's after all, the same food-reserving inventory.]
"Good."
Neji nodded in approval. How easy was it to knock her out? This was proof of how broken Noble Phantasms were; without that magic armor, Mordred was nothing.
"Let's go back to the battlefield. Though I doubt they need my help."
