Chapter 360: The Power of the Strongest Female Vampire.
"Mugetsu."
FUSHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
A burst of dark power erupted out from Haruna, and in the same second that this burst of power happened, she disappeared as if she didn't exist.
In the third second, everyone could just see Haruna with her hand on the handle of her Katana.
"…Huh?" Everyone was confused by what happened, they expected a bloodbath, but nothing happened...
The moment they thought that, they felt their field of vision drop towards the ground.
"Huh...?" Again, another wave of confusion swept through everyone.
And in the fifth second that the technique was performed, someone screamed.
"AHHHHHHH, my legs! My LEGS!" They screamed when they saw half of their bodies on the ground.
Haruna let go of the handle of her Katana and returned to her normal position as she threw her long black hair back and spoke in disdain:
"Stop yelling like a pussy, you're not dead." As soon as she said that, she started walking towards Genji.
"...What?"
"..." Victor looked at all the youkai who had their bodies split in various directions, but contrary to what he expected, there was no blood, no death, no carnage.
They were cut, but they were not harmed...
"Just what kind of technique is this?" Anna couldn't understand, she looked at the black power that was in the youkai's cut parts, and more question marks appeared in her head.
"…This looks like a containment technique?" Nero spoke.
"Hmm, for a moment, I thought she was going to kill everyone, but I didn't expect that..." Shuten said.
"...This is weird, just what kind of power is this? What is your property?" Jeanne spoke as she looked at the cuts that were made on the Youkai. Instead of blood, a kind of dark smoke was coming out of their bodies.
She looked at some Youkai and noticed that they could still move their severed parts.
"It's like she just separates an opponent's body part…?" Ibaraki spoke.
"A sword that doesn't cut to kill, huh." Victor can't help but flash a small smile in amusement.
Does he know how difficult it is to do what she did, killing the opponent is easy, now containing thousands of opponents without killing them? And at the same time cause despair in them?
This is harder than just killing.
"...Mother, amazing..." Ophis's eyes gleamed in excitement.
"This is way beyond amazing, this is bullshit." Nero spoke.
'These words are very familiar.' Victor laughed even more in amusement.
"..." Genji was looking at the woman walking towards him.
"Just how many of that man's techniques have you mastered…?"
"All."
"...." Genji's face darkened when he heard what the woman said.
"When my father died, he left all his techniques to me, and with those techniques, he gave me free will to do what I want in this world where the strong dominate the weak."
"Therefore, I chose."
"I chose to unite all of Japan's supernaturals under one banner."
"My flag."
"... That is impossible." Genji denied Haruna's thoughts.
"You think?"
"The gods won't allow it."
"Hahaha~." She laughed in amusement, but to everyone, the sneer of her laughter was quite clear.
"The gods can go fuck themselves!" She roared to the sky as she stuck out her middle finger, "Youkai, humans, all beings didn't need gods in the past, and it's not today that we're going to need them."
"The age of the gods is long over, 'higher' beings who think they are very important are no longer needed in this world."
"...You really don't understand." Genji sighed.
"The age of the gods never ended."
"Their era can't end...because-." Before Genji could finish, he turned to face the space beside Haruna.
Haruna saw this, and her instincts screamed danger as she quickly tried to pull away.
Crack, Crack.
The space around Haruna broke, and a hand holding a Katana could be seen while the Katana was slowly approaching Haruna's head.
'Shit-...'
The time around them started to slow down, and the world that Victor saw became so slow, so monotonous...
Lightning flashed through his eyes, and a thought appeared.
'The bitch finally appeared... And in the most cowardly way possible.' He stands up casually, puts Ophis in his place, and then runs towards Haruna.
Rumble, Rumble.
Haruna blinked her eyes, and suddenly, she saw a man's face in front of her, and the second she tried to understand what was happening, she was held by the man like a princess.
Suddenly, the man somersaults backwards while holding her, and the next moment, he's gone.
Haruna started to fall towards the ground, but she didn't care about that. Instead, she just looked to the side with her eyes and saw the man grab the hand that appeared through the gap, pull it out of the space, and throw the woman in it towards a building.
In that same second, he threw some sort of small device into the gap where the woman appeared.
By the time she blinked her eyes again, she was in his arms.
Time returns to normal and...
BOOOOOOOOOOOOM
Crack, Crack, Crack!
The woman who came out of space passed several buildings and walked through them like it was nothing.
An explosion was heard from where the woman came out, and soon the space she came out of was closed off.
And before everyone could understand what happened, Victor was holding Haruna as he looked towards where he threw the woman.
"... Alucard."
"Hmm?" He looked at Genji.
"What did you do?"
"...I sent a nice present to wherever that bitch showed up." Victor flashed a smile so big it sent shivers down Genji's spine.
"Tsk, you are annoying, vampire." A woman's voice was heard.
And then a golden 10-tailed fox was standing next to Genji.
She was wearing a traditional Japanese dress, with long golden hair and a slim body, just like Ibaraki Douji said.
"Flat like a fucking table." Victor laughed.
"… What did you say?" The woman's eyes gleamed dangerously.
"Are you deaf? Looks like those big ears of yours are just for decoration." He spoke in disdain.
"Inari-sama!" Genji's subordinates, who were lying on the ground, quickly recognized the woman.
"...." Genji's face was not at all pretty as he closed his eyes, and what he saw made him very angry!
Inari's time in the world of the gods has disappeared! All that was left was a gigantic area in the shape of a large mushroom.
"You killed them all!" He roared in rage. The people who were in the temple were not gods, they were just servants and people related to Inari.
"…Huh?" Inari looks at Genji.
"Inari-sama, your temple has disappeared! It was destroyed!"
"What!?" Inari focuses on her divine energy and tries to contact her temple, but all she saw was the same vision as Genji.
"Filthy vampire! You killed them all! All my family!" She roared in anger as her pretty face had become quite demonic.
"HAHAHAHA~" All Inari got from Victor was his crazy laugh.
"Yes, indeed, I killed them all."
"And I will kill more." His tone began to turn dark and somber.
"Much more."
"I will kill everyone." He remembered the state Ophis had been in, and his eyes became listless and lifeless.
"Everyone… will die…" Victor's face disappeared, and all that remained was a darkness whose only features were his blood-red eyes and his smile full of sharp fangs.
His hair, at some point, grew to his back and started to float around, and that hair was like his face, completely dark and with bright red veins showing.
'Level 2.'
FUSHHHHHHHHHHH
A wing of blood shot out of his body, and a tremendous pressure descended on everyone.
In that instant, everyone felt as if the world had fallen on top of them.
"...Alucard, what are you doing?" Haruna growled with a face that promised death.
Victor looked at Haruna and smiled internally when he saw that the woman wasn't afraid:
"Your fight is with that man."
"The woman who appeared has nothing to do with your struggle, she is mine-." Victor suddenly felt someone poking his shoulder.
He turned his head and saw his master's face.
She was in her usual battle attire, and her long red hair was fluttering in the wind. In her right hand, she had a rather strange looking red spear, and this spear had several runes carved all over its hilt.
She looked like a maiden who would go to war, she looked stunningly beautiful.
"..." Victor's smile froze a little when he saw his master's appearance.
"Follow the damn plan, idiot disciple!" Soon that gentle face changes to a serious face.
Slap!
Scathach smacked Victor on the head.
"...Ouch..." Victor pretends to feel pain, and soon his whole atmosphere returns to normal, "Well..."
"I got a little excited..."
"Just a little?" She flashed a small smile.
".... Fine, I got really excited and forgot about the plan." Victor felt like scratching his cheek now, but he couldn't because he was holding a fox...
A fox who didn't seem interested in getting out of his arms. She wasn't even moving!
"Hmm, Hmm." Scathach nodded twice since she felt she was putting some sense into this man's head.
Honestly, Scathach was quite annoyed and frustrated, only Victor was having all the fun, and the plan the two of them came up with was thrown to hell by the man himself.
The entire English dictionary would not be enough to express how irritated she was with this situation and, because of this, when she felt the presence of a god,
She immediately stopped what she was doing and ran at high speed, it only took a few seconds, but she finally reached the battlefield and saw Inari!
And in that moment, she chose the goddess as her target of amusement.
"S- S- S- S-Scathach Scarlett!" The youkai on the ground around them practically screamed as several feelings passed through their hearts.
Admiration for her beauty, fear of what would happen next, bewilderment to see a woman who was feared the world over acting so casually in front of this man.
Their minds were in chaos.
"Hmm?" Scathach looked at the Youkai.
Looking at the dark cuts on the youkai's body, she spoke.
"Well, that's an interesting technique, isn't it?" Scathach looks at the fox that was in Victor's arms.
"Was that you?" Haruna replied in a neutral tone, not seeming intimidated by Scathach's presence.
"Yes."
"It's a very gentle technique."
"Don't get me wrong, I just didn't choose to kill them. After all, they will be my subordinates in the future."
"Heh~" Scathach's smile grew since she understood that if the woman had wanted to, she could have killed everyone with that technique.
'A rather interesting technique indeed.' She also noticed something else.
That woman's eyes...
It was the eyes of someone who found an opponent but did nothing because they didn't think he had enough strength.
It was the same eyes that Victor had when he first encountered Scathach.
'A diamond in the rough, Hahahaha~' The feeling Scathach had for the woman completely disappeared like leaves in the wind when she saw her talent.
And what Scathach liked best was talent.
"Now, back to business." Scathach starts walking towards Inari while twirling the red spear around her. She was ready to fight.
"Scathach Scarlett." Inari spoke as she watched the woman approaching and quickly judged that she couldn't help but fight.
Inari tried to ask the gods for help, but... As expected, they won't help.
"You must be Inari, the bitch who pissed off my disciple."
"Why are you doing this?" Inari was completely serious, her body was tense, and she was already using her powers to increase her strength.
"I want to have fun... When I heard that my idiot disciple was going to attack all the supernaturals in Japan over a little girl... I couldn't just sit back and away from all the fun, you know?"
"Are you doing all this just for that? Killing every supernatural you come across, causing chaos in a foreign country."
"Actually, these are just excuses..." Scathach's smile grew a little, and she continued:
"Do you need reasons to fight?"
"You are crazy!" Inari felt like she had lost some neurons while talking to the woman
"HAHAHAHA~."
"Crazy!?" Scathach's smile grew, and a crimson aura exploded over her body.
And in the next moment, everyone could feel as if they were on a battlefield where the entire ground was covered with corpses.
Hundreds, hundreds of thousands of dead bodies.
"…just how many beings did that woman kill?" Ibaraki douji swallowed hard, he didn't even feel like fighting because even he felt it would be stupid. He would just die the death of a mangy dog.
"... Well, she's been fighting since 2000 years ago..." Jeanne was the one who answered.
"Did she ever stop fighting?"
"Yes, only recently that she became calmer, considering that the world became 'peaceful'." Anna spoke.
"But as far as I know, she participated in all the wars she could..." Jeanne spoke, thinking;; 'Even when I was human, she participated in my war...'
"I consider myself quite sane." The aura around her began to focus on her spear.
"That's not something a sane person would say." Inari takes her Katana out of the sheath, and her body is covered in white energy.
"…Today is a good opportunity, I can finally get rid of you." Inari had a lot of resentment towards Scathach for what happened in the past.
"Many have spoken that same phrase to me in the past, but few are alive to tell stories." Scathach stops swinging her spear and positions herself.
"It's been a while since I fought a god... Have fun, okay?"
