Insane Characters
"Hey~. Are you alright?" Kisuke asked.
Bete couldn't take it anymore and shouted at him, "Shut up you bastard! Is this your doing!?"
Kisuke, however, happily replied, "Damn right~! Amazing, right? This barrier could reflect attacks~! Although it's pretty weak when you attack it from inside." Aside from telling its features, the masked man also revealed its weakness which is, without a doubt, a stupid move.
"Huh?" Of course, coming from someone who's cloaked and masked with obviously fake voice, Bete and the rest of the Loki Familia became confused. For all they know, he might be tricking them to attack the barrier from inside.
Finn approached the barrier and inspected it, "Riveria, what's going on?"
Riveria shook her head as she's also confused, "But so far, their actions are helping us. This barrier is indeed protecting us from the acids." Despite having doubts, she wouldn't deny the help that Kisuke and Yoruichi gave them.
Finn nodded at her and faced the those outside the barrier, "Ais, Bete, Tiona, Tione. Take care of the monsters. Gareth, Lefiya, stay near the barrier while you treat Raul."
"Yes, captain!" Tiona energetically got back on her feet and started assaulting the monsters while the rest also followed his instructions.
Watching them fight, Kisuke and Yoruichi estimated their power levels, "If it's from our previous world, just their physical strength alone could let them contend with a mature High-Class Devil." Kisuke muttered.
"Comparing them to our original world, they're around lieutenant-level. And if they were able to use Mana properly..." Yoruichi added.
"Yep... Falna is amazing... But too bad, they're too dependent on it... And that Ais Wallenstein, although she looks like a human, she's far from one."
"Hmmm? That golden-haired girl? How so?"
"Not sure, but she's giving me the same feeling as Medusa and Sona."
"I see... So that's the weird feeling she's giving... What?" In the middle of her sentence, Kisuke and Yoruichi felt another movement from the Dungeon.
"Something is coming..." Kisuke looked around as the Mana and Spiritual energy started gathering on one spot of the Dungeon wall.
"We should hurry it up then." Yoruichi then separated from Kisuke and went to the southern part of the safe zone.
Kisuke, on the other hand, called out the Loki Familia, "Hey~. This is getting tiring, so we'll take care of this in one fell swoop."
"Huh!? Just stay where you are! We don't need your help!" Bete didn't like Kisuke's idea.
But instead of giving them another warning, Kisuke just made his move, "Shibari, Benihime (Bind, Crimson Princess)." With a wave of his sword, Kisuke launches several long condensed energy in a form of the tangible blood-red net to multiple directions. The nets then dropped on the monsters binding them.
Continuing, Kisuke stabbed the intersection of all nets and muttered, "Hiasobi, Benihime, Juzutsunagi (Fire-playing Crimson Princess Beaded Mesh)." From each intersection of the net, a bead on the size of a baseball emerged.
Seeing this, Finn's thumb was pierced by a prickling pain and hurriedly shouted, "Everyone! Get back! Now!"
Everyone was shocked at the flustered Finn, but they didn't hesitate to follow his orders and gathered beside Finn, Gareth, Lefiya, and Raul.
"What's wrong Finn?" Bete asked him in confusion and the rest also has the same expression.
While biting his thumb, Finn answered with a serious expression, "I don't know what he's trying to do, but that is dangerous."
They then watch as beads emerged until the end of the net and a second later, all the beads exploded, creating a tremendously large and devastating explosion.
The explosion is so powerful all those outside the barrier had to drop to the ground to keep their position against the onslaught of the shockwave created.
"W-what the hell?" Tiona asked in dumbfounded expression.
"D-did you hear him chant?" Lefiya asked with a terrified expression and Riveria also has the same question. After all, the magic of that scale is only possible if all of the rearguards of the Loki Familia started a barrage with all their Minds.
"Maybe the sword he has is a very strong magic weapon?" Bete muttered. But he too couldn't believe it as he knew that even the famed Crozzo Magic Weapons doesn't have that kind of potency.
"..." Ais only stared at the unknown figure quietly. It's unknown what's on her mind.
Finn could only smile wryly after seeing this, "It seems like an insane character just arrived in Orario.
However, even though they still haven't recovered from Kisuke's display, another one started.
"Limit of the thousand hands, respectful hands, unable to touch the darkness. Shooting hands unable to reflect the blue sky." When they looked behind them, the second figure, who is obviously a woman from her figure and the one the other one refers to her, started chanting... while floating in mid-air.
"S-she's floating!?" Lefiya exclaimed. She and the rest tried to find a magic item that gives her the ability to fly but couldn't find any.
Yoruichi ignored them and continued, "The road that basks in light, the wind that ignited the embers, time that gathers when both are together, there is no need to be hesitant, obey my orders." Several spheres of red light then started appearing all around her and each of them possessed a tremendous amount of energy which everyone from the Loki Familia could feel.
"O-oi... Isn't that woman a fighter!? Why is she suddenly casting what seems to be very large scale magic?" Bete mouth's twitches.
Different from this world's incantations which only allows the Mana to move around to a predetermined logic, incantation from Kisuke and Yoruichi's world is not just an assisting tool but are words that empower the will and consciousness of the caster resulting to a more effective art, "Light bullets, eight bodies, nine items, book of heaven, diseased treasure, great wheel, grey fortress tower. Aim far away, scatter brightly and cleanly when fired."
Pointing towards the spot where the most monsters are gathered, Yoruichi shouted, "Hadou no 91, Senjuu Kouten Taihou (Thousand Hand - Bright Heaven Culling - Spear)!!!"
The nine orbs of red lights that Yoruichi summoned then became spears of light and launched towards the monsters where she's pointing.
Hitting a single focal point, the culminating explosion is exceedingly devastating, more than what Kisuke did.
On Kisuke's side, the towers of flames subsided and what's left on the ground is just a pool of lava. Yoruichi's side, on the other hand, is a large hole spanning a few floors below.
"...You overdid it..." Kisuke muttered out loud.
"It's been a while, so I forgot to hold back... And can't blame me... That pool of magma is probably flowing until the 51st floor."
Due to their actions, another point in the Dungeon wall started gathering Mana and Spiritual Energy much faster than the first one. But due to the limited amount of Mana in the air, both of them are competing, which ended up slowing the process.
But before the emergence of the two big monsters, one other monster appeared which brought the entire Loki Familia back to their senses.
"Iya~. After those big moves, we're tried." Kisuke jumped on top of the barrier and Yoruichi followed him, "If someone from you wants to take care of that thing, then please."
The monster that appeared is a giant, 50-meter tall, standing monster that seems to be in the middle of transforming from a caterpillar to a butterfly. Its upper body reminisces of a woman's figure but it only made the whole thing more disgusting.
Stepping out, the mostly silent Ais spoke after Kisuke, "...I'll go."
