Chapter 19: chapter 18
It's been a week since Theo made Valerie his queen, and Valerie sleeps by his side every day. Theo has now landed in Japan to add Akeno to his peers, but suddenly, for no apparent reason, the surroundings are covered in dark clouds, and lightning strikes as if the gods are angry. Then, suddenly, a handsome man with long, spiky black hair and golden eyes descends in front of Theo.
Susanoo looks at me.
Susanoo himself is known as a warrior. He looks at me.
Susanoo: I initially underestimated you, but it seems you're powerful. do you think you can fight me and win, or will you lose?
Theo: Nah, I'd have win.
After saying this, he draws a sword.
Susanoo: I'll just give you a little lesson. My sister told me not to kill you, so for now, you can consider yourself lucky. You'll live.
Theo temporarily disables the Limitless because this fight wouldn't make sense.
Theo raises his right hand and points at Susanoo.
Theo: Do your best, or you'll lose.
Susanoo: We'll see.
He approaches me at lightning speed; if I had blinked, I would have missed it. Susanoo swings his sword; every move is deadly. I do my best to dodge, then I make my move and punch him in the face; he dodges.
Susanoo: You're fast, kid.
Theo: You're not bad yourself.
Susanoo is grinning now; he has a scary smile on his face.
Theo: Be ready; you'd better give your all.
Susanoo: Do your best.
Using Material Creation, I create a sword; it costs me a lot of energy, but I do it. Yes, I made Excalibur. And this time, I make my move; I attack him quickly, and he blocks it, his hand trembling.
Theo: Is this all you've got?
Susanoo: Shut up, demon.
Theo: Keep your mouth shut, mongrel.
Theo attacks Susanoo once more, this time in a horizontal line. Susanoo is about to block it, but the sword turns towards his head to his shoulder. Susanoo couldn't dodge it, and now my shoulder is covered in blood.
Theo: I guess I was a bit harsh. Would you like me to be softer?
Susanoo: No, continue, because now I'll use all my power.
Susanoo's form changes, and now he turns into the Thunder form; crazy lightning emanates from his body.
Suddenly, Susanoo appears in front of me; he swings his sword. I roll to the side, but the mountain behind me is split in two. Understanding the seriousness of the situation, I look at him, and he attacks me. I block him every time; I just wanted to see how strong he is.
Theo decides to end this fight quickly because he's bored. He raises his sword upward, and holy light rises up to the sky. This isn't holy energy to harm demons; it's just to destroy the opponent. As the sword pierces the sky, people around start recording this event; many start praying to the gods.
Then, I look at Susanoo and speak.
Theo: Stand proud, Susanoo. You are strong.
Theo: But now, disappear! EX-CALIBUUUUR!
The holy light falls upon Susanoo, blocking him, but it harms him. When it's over, Susanoo's sword is broken, and his body is covered in blood.
I approach him and raise my hand.
Susanoo: Ah, so this is how it ends.
Theo: What nonsense are you talking?
I use Time Magic on him and return him to his previous state. I'm fine, but I'm exhausted.
Theo: You're the first person to make me use 20% of my power. Be proud.
Susanoo is surprised to hear this, then he reminds me that he never used the shadow. He suggests fighting again and says her sister wants to talk to me.
Theo: Lead the way.
And we teleport to where Amaterasu and the others are.
