If he won against this girl, Susanoo was certain that the Great Ming Dragon King would immediately attack him the moment he won. At that point, he would definitely return to mythology on the spot.
If he didn't win, it seemed impossible. Even without the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi, there was no way Susanoo could lose to an ordinary person without any magical power.
Every person who becomes a Demon King has incredible luck. Every Godslayer succeeds only through super coincidental circumstances. Otherwise, magical power wouldn't suppress demonic power for so long, and Gods of Dissension and Demon Kings wouldn't be existences that ordinary sorcerers couldn't possibly contend with.
Susanoo didn't believe that the girl before him possessed such luck.
So, should he win or not?
Susanoo's seemingly turbid eyes glanced at Wang Xiaoming, who was smiling and watching him. Everything depended on him.
Susanoo felt himself weakening as soon as he stood up, weakening absurdly. He only had a quarter of his original magical power and strength. Then, music suddenly sounded in the sky, and the girl's aura directly increased several levels when the music started. This change made his heart race. What kind of authority was that?
All of this was the Great Ming Dragon King's doing. Most importantly, what exactly was the ability that made him kneel and accept the sword with both hands? Were there any restrictions, any requirements, any cooldowns? These were all things Susanoo was very concerned about.
While Susanoo was having a mental breakdown, Saeko quietly gripped the hilt of her weapon and bowed respectfully to Susanoo.
"Samurai, Busujima Saeko, requests guidance from Susanoo-no-Mikoto."
Saeko introduced herself, then slowly raised her head. The moment she raised her head, she drew her sword and charged forward, even activating lightning magic in the instant she charged.
"Let thunder cleanse all sins!"
Lightning flashed, and Susanoo also shifted his attention to the front. Saeko was already enveloped in lightning, charging forward with her horns pointed at him.
"Hmm? Is that an Oni?"
No, although she had Oni horns, she didn't have magical power. She wasn't an Oni, but some kind of human magic. It wasn't a threat.
But Wang Xiaoming wouldn't let Saeko's attack be harmless.
"Alright, we can see that Saeko has activated her lightning magic and is charging towards Susanoo!"
"But we all know that Susanoo is a God of Dissension. His power is an authority composed of magical power, while Saeko's power is demonic power. Even if her magic is strong, it's still ultimately composed of demonic power. This kind of power is useless against Susanoo, who uses magical power. She's simply no match for Susanoo, even if Susanoo looks weak now. Saeko can't shake him at all."
Wang Xiaoming's sudden commentary stunned Susanoo and Yuri Mariya. They didn't understand why Wang Xiaoming suddenly started commentating, and even in a way that favored Susanoo.
Who are you helping?
Susanoo even had a thought pop into his head: that the Great Ming Dragon King didn't want the girl before him to kill him, but wanted to use his hand to kill this girl.
Was he using a borrowed knife to kill?
While Susanoo was wondering, Wang Xiaoming continued his commentary.
"Unless Saeko suddenly gains magical power at this moment. This is the East Sea, and the dragon vein beneath the East Sea contains a large amount of magical power. But it's obvious that Saeko can't use that magical power. So Saeko's attack will definitely be ineffective. Susanoo can stand still and let her hit him, and she won't be able to move him."
As soon as he finished speaking, Saeko charged in front of Susanoo. Just as Wang Xiaoming said, Susanoo planned to stand in place and let Saeko strike him, because demonic power couldn't hurt him at all!
However, the moment Saeko swung her sword down, a surge of magical power suddenly appeared on the blade of Kiri-ichimonji.
"Nani!"
Susanoo's eyes widened. In his eyes, the blade that was originally only wrapped in demonic power was suddenly wrapped in magical power. What shocked him the most was that this magical power was connected to the earth. It was the magical power of the dragon vein beneath the East Sea!
Susanoo immediately activated his authority of storms, adding wind to his body and rapidly retreating to dodge the attack.
Kiri-ichimonji, wrapped in magical power, directly struck the beach with a single slash, blasting out a cloud of sand like a bomb.
The sand blocked the view, but Saeko used the sand to accelerate herself with lightning magic, transforming into a purple light that broke through the sand and arrived in front of Susanoo.
"Not good!"
Seeing Saeko appear before him as a purple lightning bolt, Susanoo shouted and immediately summoned the typhoon clouds in the sky.
"Lightning, oh lightning! Protect my body!!!"
A huge bolt of lightning fell directly from the sky, slamming down in front of Susanoo and turning into a lightning barrier. Saeko's electromagnetic sword draw turned Kiri-ichimonji into a curtain of light, but Susanoo's lightning barrier turned into an acceleration in the opposite direction, forcibly stopping the slash.
Failing with one strike, Saeko took two steps back to prevent the opponent's lightning from attacking her, while Susanoo also took two steps back, looking at Saeko with extreme seriousness after the lightning dissipated.
The magician who originally couldn't pose any threat to him was now wrapped in magical power. Just now, that slash even directly threatened his life!
How was this done? The magical power of the dragon vein, how could she use it so easily? He didn't even see any incantations being activated on Saeko's body. He couldn't understand this situation!
Was it him!?
Susanoo's turbid eyes glanced at Wang Xiaoming again. Just now, Wang Xiaoming said that unless Saeko used the dragon vein's magical power, she wouldn't be able to hurt him. Then this girl could use the dragon vein's magical power. If that was the case...
"Gale, tear my enemy apart!"
Susanoo activated his authority of gale again. This time, he was attacking proactively. The gale enveloped Susanoo, then rapidly expanded, turning into a huge tornado and charging towards Saeko.
"Oni Armor!"
Saeko also deployed her Oni Armor. She didn't think she could withstand this kind of gale with her bare body. Huge mechanical arms and a ten-meter-long sword appeared out of thin air.
Wang Xiaoming was about to continue commentating.
"It's over, it's over. Susanoo has activated his authority to attack proactively. This is the authority of gale, capable of destroying everything on the ground!"
Everything my ass, I'm weak as hell now!
Susanoo cursed wildly in his heart. His magical power and authority strength were reduced to 25% of their original value, so the tornado he summoned now was only ten meters in diameter. Although this was still a big tornado, it wasn't even on the same level as a typhoon that swept through an entire city!
"Such a powerful authority is impossible for Saeko, who doesn't have an authority, to contend with. Her Oni Armor can't withstand such an attack at all!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Saeko directly controlled the Oni Armor's arms to close together, turning into a huge shield that surrounded her whole body, then charged head-on into the tornado.
The tornado quickly sucked the sand from the beach into the sky, and the seawater from the coastline next to it was also sucked up, turning the entire tornado into a huge water-sand tornado. But Saeko just charged straight in, not only charging in, but even directly breaking through the tornado.
"What, she actually broke through! Saeko actually broke through! Ah, this..."
What are you so surprised about!
Susanoo's eyes widened as he watched Saeko charge over unscathed, not even messing up her hair much.
Are you serious? You're just an ordinary human. Relying on those two arms, you actually blocked the tornado I launched. Even if you weighed several tons, you wouldn't be able to stand still!
"But even if Saeko breaks through the tornado, it's useless. Her attack is weak and powerless to Susanoo. It's impossible to break through Susanoo's lightning defense. As long as Susanoo uses his previous defense, she still won't be able to break through."
Susanoo felt that Wang Xiaoming's commentary had a problem. He didn't defend in the first place, but directly summoned lightning to attack!
Thick lightning fell from the sky, directly towards Saeko, trying to stop her steps through the attack, while also trying to kill her with lightning!
However, Saeko directly used the Oni Armor to entangle the lightning, forcibly withstanding the lightning falling from the sky.
She directly transformed into a huge purple pillar of light and charged in front of Susanoo.
"Lightning, protect my god!"
The lightning barrier appeared again, trying to block Saeko's attack as before, but this time, what Saeko drew wasn't Kiri-ichimonji, but that ten-meter-long greatsword!
"One slash, finish it!"
Lightning blazed, and Saeko directly unleashed her strongest attack, the ten-meter-long sword being ejected in an instant, an electromagnetic sword draw!
The greatsword, wreathed in lightning, directly broke through the lightning barrier, drawing a massive purple fan shape in front of Yaeko, cleaving Susanoo in two at the waist!
312. Susanoo Unleashed at Full Power
The 10-meter-long greatsword, after an electromagnetic catapult draw, reached extreme speed and was also wrapped in lightning, mutually canceling out Susanoo's lightning barrier, leaving him unable to defend. This strike directly bisected him.
However, after cleaving Susanoo in two, Yaeko's battle was not over.
God of Trickery!
When Susanoo was slain by this strike, it was not his true form. He had evaded, and the one Yaeko had killed was merely Susanoo's illusion.
Although Wang Xiaoming had applied a debuff to Susanoo and a buff to Yaeko, and even provided commentary on the side, Susanoo was, after all, a god of disobedience. Having achieved the position of one of Japan's highest three noble children through the repetition of numerous Japanese myths and legends, it was naturally impossible to kill him so easily.
After the illusion was destroyed, Susanoo finally became serious. After several probes, he understood that his opponent was not the girl before him, but the Great Ming Dragon King beside her. It was he who was using his unknown authority. Clearly, he was simply speaking, yet he could directly interfere with the battlefield through his words. This ability must be some kind of word spirit capable of directly interfering with causality!
No matter what is said, the reality will proceed in the opposite direction. What kind of strange curse is this?!
However, the effect of this word spirit doesn't seem particularly powerful. If it were powerful enough, it could probably directly kill a god of disobedience by simply uttering the word 'death'.
For example, Athena's curse of death, although unable to kill a godslayer on the spot through words, is because godslayers possess inherently high magic resistance. However, once Athena kisses them, the curse of death directly enters the godslayer's body through the kiss, and the godslayer will die.
In Susanoo's view, Wang Xiaoming's reverse causality word spirit, although strong, wasn't particularly strong!
As a god of disobedience, and one with the title of God of Trickery, Susanoo directly discovered the truth of Wang Xiaoming's commentary ability after a few short probes! This is the wisdom of an LYB (a Chinese internet slang term for a cunning and underhanded player)!
However, Susanoo still wanted to know what authority Wang Xiaoming used to control him to kneel. That was an extremely powerful control skill that made a god of disobedience unconditionally obey, travel a thousand kilometers, and then kneel to receive a sword. He had to figure it out.
Having understood who his real enemy was, Susanoo no longer concealed anything. The girl before him, because she was wrapped in cursed power, was already a threat to him, and his authority could not effectively harm her. In that case, then draw the sword!
"In my name, Susanoo, I summon! Return! Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi!"
Susanoo directly extended his left hand, summoning his subordinate god. As the main god, Susanoo could directly summon his subordinate god, even if his subordinate god had already appeared and was far away in Japan, he could still directly summon him.
A simple katana with a scabbard appeared out of thin air in Susanoo's left hand.
Susanoo held the scabbard in his left hand and the hilt in his right, continuing to chant the word spirit.
"Here, Susanoo commands a thousand evil and chaotic gods to rebel ─ ─ seeking to seize this country! Thousands of swords stand upon the earth, using them as city walls and shields to resist the enemy. ─ ─ Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi, draw!"
Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi immediately responded.
"Responding! It is the so-called Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi! It is to break through a thousand blades of steel! Now is the time to annihilate the Southern Barbarians, Northern Di, Eastern Yi, and Western Rong! Overthrow the heretics!"
After chanting the word spirit, Susanoo drew the Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi, and the blade of the Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi shimmered with light.
"Lightning, protect my body!"
Susanoo raised the Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi towards the typhoon clouds in the sky. Lightning directly fell from the sky, striking the Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi. The Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi instantly grew larger, becoming a 10-meter-long greatsword like the one in Yaeko's hand, and was wrapped in lightning.
Now, both sides had 10-meter-long greatswords. It depended on who was more powerful.
Yaeko was somewhat surprised, but she did not retreat. Instead, she was filled with fighting spirit. A battle between swordsmen excited her even more.
The Sword Demon's passive skill was also triggered by Yaeko's excitement and began to activate.
However, Susanoo did not notice the activation of Yaeko's Sword Demon skill. His attention was still focused on Wang Xiaoming. He planned to pay attention to Wang Xiaoming's mouth throughout the battle with Yaeko. Once he said something, he would immediately abandon that task and switch to another to see if he could break his causality.
At the same time, he also prepared to activate the Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi's authority.
The Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi had a suppressive effect on dragons and snakes. It was a sword of steel that could deal double damage to dragons and snakes.
If Wang Xiaoming used dragonification, he would be directly targeted by the Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi.
Moreover, the Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi also possessed the authority of theft, capable of stealing the enemy's authority, copying cursed power, or stealing a "small amount" of cursed power.
Susanoo prepared to use the Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi to steal some of Wang Xiaoming's cursed power to determine what authority Wang Xiaoming was using.
However, Wang Xiaoming was not using cursed power at all right now. Even if he did, the cursed power only had two effects: dragonification and divine speed, both of which were very simple authorities.
Dragonification was useless to Susanoo. As for divine speed, it could improve him.
Of course, the premise was that he could use it. Wang Xiaoming would not watch him use it.
"Come on!"
Susanoo withdrew his gaze and focused it on Yaeko.
Yaeko nodded slightly and activated the Lightning Demon skill again. The lightning that had been somewhat extinguished bloomed again, and purple lightning wrapped around Yaeko. One person and one god, both wielding 10-meter-long greatswords, charged towards each other with the acceleration of lightning.
They swung the 10-meter-long swords in their hands, attempting to sweep the opponent away in one strike.
The two super greatswords collided, and different colors of lightning erupted, turning into a pillar of light that soared into the sky. Yurika Mariya had to cover her eyes with both hands to block the light, while Wang Xiaoming had to squint slightly, filling his eyes with cursed power to increase his observation ability.
Yaeko's greatsword was personally forged by Wang Xiaoming, using a super alloy he had forged, which incorporated various ores from the DanMachi world, making it extremely strong.
However, Susanoo was using the Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi. Although the Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi did not have any powerful attack abilities, it was, after all, a subordinate god, a divine armament. Although it was wrapped in cursed power, the super alloy sword he forged might not be able to withstand it in the end.
"Since that's the case, let's make this a quick battle!"
313. New Weapon Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi
Susanoo died in the end, dying rather unfortunately.
As Wang Xiaoming had thought, his Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi was stronger than the super alloy sword. After a few clashes, the Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi broke the super alloy sword, but Wang Xiaoming immediately took action when the super alloy sword was broken.
Susanoo, receive the sword!
Susanoo, who was swinging his sword, instantly dropped the Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi and came to Wang Xiaoming, kneeling on one knee with his hands clasped together. Susanoo was dumbfounded at the time, completely dumbfounded. What kind of authority was this?
Then, Wang Xiaoming maintained the state of controlling Susanoo and let Yaeko take action. Yaeko directly used Wang Xiaoming's power. As the spirit user of Wang Xiaoming, the Fire Spirit King, Yaeko could use Wang Xiaoming's power through the contract.
Using Wang Xiaoming's power, Yaeko directly killed Susanoo. Her abilities were still not as good as those gods of disobedience. Even if the god of disobedience was weakened, Yaeko's full power was still not enough. She was willing to admit this, and she was also willing to become stronger with Wang Xiaoming's help.
As Wang Xiaoming's woman, she had solved Susanoo with Wang Xiaoming's help this time. She gladly accepted it, but as the woman behind Wang Xiaoming, she couldn't rely on him every time. Next time, she would solve the powerful enemy without Wang Xiaoming's help!
Yaeko solved Susanoo and passed out on the spot. Wang Xiaoming understood that this was the reincarnation ritual of a godslayer. She was going to see Pandora.
