Knives, forks, and kitchen knives float inside the kitchen, followed by spoons, plates, ladles, pots, and lids.
Is this why she brought me to the kitchen? Because her divine protection lets her manipulate cookware?
I figure this woman is one of the dead people who were resurrected, because I can see pale purifying light spilling from her body.
The next moment, the tableware in the air begins to emit the same pale light and spin around the kitchen.
They speed up as they spin around me and get fired at me one after the other.
“Aroma Vine! The same as always, and please look after my back! 《Activate》, 《Polish》.”
I give instructions while activating another scroll. A tornado with diamond dust acts as a wall in front of me, and Aroma Vine’s vines head behind me and start grabbing all the tableware thrown at me.
“They’re hard!”
Maybe it’s the speed, or maybe it’s the purifying light, but the tornado in front of me can’t block the tableware completely. It damages them, but some things manage to slip past the tornado and fly my way.
I use the twintail horn knife with an underhand grip to deflect everything that manages to reach me, but the fact that she’s throwing so many different things makes it hard to deal with it all.
I dodge a half-broken and strangely sharp plate, only for long chopsticks to fly towards my eyes the very next moment.
And it’s all enveloped in that purifying light. I get the feeling that getting hit by these things isn’t going to leave me with just a simple wound.
“Well, of course that would happen…”
And unfortunately, everything I deflect starts spinning around the room again.
What do I do? Should I just manifest Rose?
I think as I see the woman dressed like a sister add even more things.
Between the clattering sounds of the tableware, I can hear her smacking her tongue, which is apparently how she controls these things.
I’m sure Rose could turn this around in a second.
But let’s hang on a little longer. If I can buy some time I’m sure I’ll be able to figure something out, so let’s go with just Aroma Vine for now…
I’m not completely cornered yet. And I definitely want to capture this person I think is one of the resurrected corpses.
“Rust, are you all right?”
I suddenly hear Kahelone, and her faint magic elements begin to fill the kitchen.
I look around, and notice appliances with cute designs on them here and there.
Ah, that stone oven has a bunny carved on its side. That cupboard handle has the shape of a cat’s paw! It looks like this kitchen was arranged in a way that it’s the ideal space for Kahelone.
“I’m using the 《Jamming》 divine protection! Get down, Rust!”
Kahelone says to me while posing like she’s praying. And then, the two women with divine protection from different gods face off.
