[I Won’t Let You Lose the Second Time]

Having overcame the blackdollification, Boreios could be said to boast the strength of a fierce god.

“Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!”

――BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMM!

““Gh!?””

The power behind his blows were nearly as strong as when he was in gigantified form—furthermore, now that he had returned to his original size, his speed had dramatically increased. A moment after we avoided one, the second and third blow would immediately come flying towards us.

Thanks to that, the village was now reduced to ruins, and even Shiva-san, who was desperately avoiding the aftershocks of the attacks, had scolded us, “You’d better tone it down, or else we all will sink to the bottom of the sea!?” with a vein bulging on her forehead.

At that time.

“What’s wrong? You can’t beat me just by dodging.” Boreios provoked with the usual somber look on his face.

Of course, we had no intention to keep dodging forever.

“Ha, we were just gauging your power.”

Yes, as Ophir said, we were ascertaining the power of Boreios, who had overcome the blackdollification.

“Hou? That is admirable. So, have you got some result?”

“Ya bet. Not only you’re stupidly powerful as usual, there’s also no waste in your moves. Ah, if I might add, your face is scary, to boot.”

“Kukuku… As I thought, you’re an interesting woman, Saintess Ophir. I would love to make you mine if you weren’t the Savior’s woman.”

“Ha, I’m honored. I don’t hate a strong guy like you, either. But unfortunately, we ain’t fated to be together. After all, there’s a stronger guy than you here, and I’m madly in love with him. So, you’d better give up.” Ophir shrugged her shoulders.

Boreios grinned and said, “Fine. In that case, I, Boreios, will defeat him and show you who is stronger between us!”

Bang! Kicking off the ground, Boreios came attacking us.

His speed was equal to us in spite of the fact that we were using the power of ‘thunder’. By the next moment, he was already right in front of us.

“—Grand Thor Hammeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrr!!”

――Fwsh!

Boreios raised his Sacred Treasure overhead with both of his arms.

Without a doubt, he was putting all his power behind this blow.

If we avoided it, the impact would cause this large cavern to collapse in a blink of an eye.

Therefore, we met it head-on.

““—Grand Tempest Break!!””

It was a storm clad, sideways blow which was launched by twisting the body to the limit.

In their first fight, Ophir had used this Combat Art against Boreios, but he had defeated her by using mere brute strength.

This time the same Combat Art was used to challenge him while he was using his full power—was this fate?

Thinking about it normally, if Boreios was able to overpower this Combat Art through brute strength, now that he was channeling his strength through a Combat Art, there was no chance that this Combat Art could defeat him.

However—the present circumstances were completely different from back then.

More goddesses’ powers had been gained, and《Superior Arms》was already activated.

And most importantly—

“—‘I’ am here now!”

BAAAAAAAAAAAANNNGG! Both sides’ special move collided with each other, and the shockwave sent the surrounding rubble flying into the air like dead leaves.

““Hraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!””

Believing that Shiva-san would put up some kind of defensive barrier, we continued to push on with all our might.

“Hoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!”

The same was true for Boreios. He roared even as his veins continued to burst one after another.

It was then.

――Crack!

“!?”

As fierce shockwaves flew about and dazzling flashes illuminated the area, a crack ran through the blade part of Boreios’s Sacred Treasure.

“I’m not done yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!!”

However, Boreios put more power into it, and his body gradually broke down, having exceeded the limit.

Even if I told him to stop, Boreios wouldn’t step back.

That being the case, there was only one thing we could do.

““Uooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!””

That was—to defeat him with everything we had!

――Claaang!

“Wha!?”

At that moment, Boreios’s Sacred Treasure shattered into pieces.

Of course, by that time, we could no longer pull back our blow.

――Slaaash!

“Gahaa!?”

The Holy Axe dug deep into his body.
