SWNOVELS Chapter 433 Goddesses Working Together!
After a short while, a familiar figure came out of the portal. Her sharp eyes turned toward us without delay, glaring as her lips were fixed into a slight frown.
"Namia?"
But she wasn't who we expected. The one who appeared was the Succubus Lord, Namia!
"What are you doing here?"
Don't tell me, she's here to pick a fight...?
"Although I do want to beat you up, unfortunately, I'm not here to fight."
As if reading my mind, she quickly sighed while shaking her head. Before she could continue, however, another portal opened up, and this time, the one we were expecting had popped out of it, along with an extra.
Not only did Alpha appear, but even Zeshion and Zeta came with her!
Why's Zeshion here? Is he going to help too? As Alpha's tamer, he should also be able to harness Void Energy, but the efficiency should be lower than Alpha's. For goddess Zeta... I have no idea why she tagged along.
As soon as the three of them appeared, they quickly turned to the foreign being within view.
"Will? Isn't that... the Succubus Lord?"
Zeshion muttered, a faint frown on his lips. It couldn't be helped that he was wary. After all, they once fought against her and almost lost. I could see his energy move, shifting to battle mode, as soon as he saw Namia's figure.
Before I could step forward and stop him from making a move, a small hand waved before him, stopping Zeshion from acting up any further.
"Zeshion, stop. We don't have time for petty fights right now. Right, Ms. System's Right Hand?"
"..."
The two of them stared into each other's eyes as if exchanging words without opening their mouths. After a while, Namia sighed as if giving up, shrugging her shoulders as she agreed.
"Alright, alright. I was sent to help this brat over here, okay? I'm not here out of my own will."
"Really? What a coincidence. I was also called here by that brat. Although I hate cooperating with him, I can't just ignore him given this is an important junction for the world's fate."
"Oh? To think someone would have the same opinion as me about him... I think we can get along well."
"Heh, guess what? I just thought the same thing too."contemporary romance
Just like that, without even the slightest spark spreading between them, the two shook hands with a grin on their faces. I felt a shiver run down my spine while looking at their expressions, feeling like I was about to be attacked by two hunters sometime soon.
"A-Anyway, we're out of time. We should start preparing for the fight soon."
I tried setting the topic back on track, leaving their unsettling alliance behind. I quickly turned to Fatima, signaling for her to take the item out. Understanding my gaze, she quickly whipped out an over 100 kg artillery shell, still empty and ready to be filled up.
"This is the shell that will be fired toward the Void Beast. As explained before, it's the main attack that would strip off the Void Beast's invulnerability."
With Ember and Alpha working together, we should be gaining an advantage against the Void Beast. However, the problem would be that they couldn't "bless" more than one shell with Void Energy, since that would scatter their "belief" and weaken it. We only have one chance, so we need to make sure not to waste it.
"So this is the reason why that girl sent me here..."
Namia crossed her arms before her bountiful chest, about to slip out of her red v-neck one-piece dress, as she realized her purpose.
"I also possess the Void Element."
"...!"
That's great! This means our chances of succeeding just increased by a large chunk! With three of them focusing their "wishes" on this one shell, even the Void Beast should be unable to withstand it at all!
"And? What are we going to do?"
Goddess Alpha asked, with one of her brows rising up in scrutiny.
After that, I began explaining the plan in detail to them. Of course, only the part that they were helping with. I explained what they had to do, how to do it, and how the others would move. After about half an hour of explaining, they finally got what their job was.
"So, we'll just be using our Void Powers to bless this shell with our wish of destroying the Void Beast's barrier."
Goddess Alpha asked to confirm. Although she had Void Powers, she was clueless about this side of it, after all. She looked surprised by this information, completely opposite of the indifferent Namia.
As one who lived for a long time, she knew of this little detail beforehand. In fact, when she fought the God Tamers before, if not for her just getting out of her seal, then we'd probably have lost miserably as soon as she used her Void Powers. Much less falling under Noir's trap and turning into a Loli.
"Right, but it's not a wish, but a belief. The stronger your belief in the phenomenon you want to cause, the stronger its effects would be."
To make it easier for them, I already provided a phrase that would let them focus their beliefs on the shell. "The strongest attack that will completely break the Void Beast's defenses."
As it was phrased like that, we couldn't create a backup. After all, if there are two such shells, it's no longer "the strongest," and their beliefs would be split between how many shells they blessed with the same phrase.
"Alright, got it."
After Goddess Alpha nodded her head, everyone was finally prepared to start. Alpha, Ember, and Namia stood around the shell, both hands pointing toward it, as they sharpened their focus and "blessed" the shell.
With my eyes, I could see that their Void Energy started to weave into the material, creating a thick layer around it. After the thick layer started to saturate into a thin membrane around the shell, I also began to do my part.
With the three of them focusing their energy "outside" the shell, my task would be filling up this thing that needed thousands of Seimei tamers to fill. My task is just as complex as the three's since the balance of energy within the shell should be specific to reach full efficacy and deal maximum damage.
Noticing how I was barely filling it up even with my maximum speed, I prepared myself for a long night.
