Without evading, Sora's full-powered strike, the King's Sword crackling with lightning, slammed directly into the light barrier.
BOOM!!!
Violent lightning and blinding flames erupted. The intense collision shook the surrounding space, instantly creating a vacuum within a kilometer radius. White shockwaves spread outward, obliterating everything in their path.
The sheer power of a single strike was terrifying!
Yet, as the lightning dissipated and the flames faded, the figure floating in place remained unmoved…
The Six-Winged Seraph's authority, "The Seraph's Holy Light," was said to be the embodiment of absolute offense and defense, far surpassing the power of its previous light arrows and spears by a hundredfold.
"Tch, what an annoying ability!"
Sora retreated a thousand miles in an instant, not daring to be careless against such a monstrous opponent.
"Thunder Punishment!"
Raising his left hand to the sky, Sora activated his ability, summoning a thousand-foot purple lightning pillar that descended from the heavens.
"Sea Burial!"
With his right hand, he summoned a thousand-foot water pillar from the ocean, shooting skyward to meet the lightning.
"Inferno Blast!"
A cold glint flashed in Sora's eyes as a ten-thousand-meter fireball materialized in the air, engulfing the enemy entirely.
Under the gaze of countless onlookers, the lightning's piercing force, the water pillar's impact, and the flames' scorching heat reached their critical point and exploded simultaneously.
Due to the air being sucked dry, there was no sound, but the dazzling brilliance, like the sun, spoke volumes of the immense power unleashed.
"Ha… ha… I refuse to believe I can't kill you. Let's go again—"
"Absolute Freeze!"
Without holding back, Sora pushed the ability he shared with Akitsu to its limit. An invisible wave spread out, freezing everything in its path!
If powerful enough, Akitsu's ability could even freeze time and space! Though neither Sora nor Akitsu had reached that level yet, the power they unleashed was still terrifying.
A massive ice sculpture formed, faintly revealing the flames and lightning trapped within, as well as the blurred figure at its core.
"Is it over…?"
Though he muttered the words, there was no confidence in his tone. If it were anyone else in the world, Sora wouldn't believe they could survive such a ferocious assault.
But against this inhuman being…
Crack! Crack!!
The sound of ice shattering echoed as a beam of light shot toward Sora from the distance. His pupils contracted!
He wanted to dodge, but his body couldn't react in time.
Without a sound, the beam pierced through his heart. Sora glanced down.
Heh, impressive—the entire Earth had been pierced through!
"Master Sora!"
"Master!"
...
The girls in the heavens above were filled with rage, their eyes bloodshot as light wings burst from their bodies, ready to charge into the sky!
But at that moment, a chilling aura swept over them, instantly freezing them in place. Karasuba's voice, filled with murderous intent, echoed from the side:
"Anyone who moves dies!"
The girls' eyes burned with fury as they glared at Karasuba. Though they usually feared her, at this moment, they were fearless.
"Everyone, calm down!"
"With our current strength, going up there won't accomplish anything. We'd just be throwing our lives away. Sora would never forgive you for that!"
"Besides, we must believe in him—our Master Sora, our King. Absolutely!"
Unlike Karasuba's hardline approach, Queen Minato's reasoning was gentle yet firm, calming the girls who had been blinded by anger.
With slightly envious gazes, they looked at the two who understood their master's heart the most, silently praying in their hearts…
"Ha… As expected, it's not so easy to resolve!"
"Moreover, it seems we'll have to fly even higher to prevent Earth from being destroyed."
With a hint of helplessness in his tone, Sora, whose heart had been pierced, murmured these words.
In the next moment, his body transformed into strands of lightning, while his true form reappeared elsewhere.
At that instant, countless beams of light burst through the massive ice layer, shattering it into countless shards that rained down to the ground.
It was still so holy, still so beautiful, with radiant light flowing like water around the angel. If one hadn't seen it with their own eyes, it would be hard to imagine such a thing could possess such immense power!
"Thunder Dragon! Flame Dragon! Water Dragon! Wind Dragon!"
"Super Colossal Steam Thunder Dragon!"
Driven by the power of his parrots, a hundred-feet-long dragon formed from lightning, flames, water, and hurricanes continuously writhed and spiraled in the sky.
Under Sora's control, they gradually merged together, their size swelling to ten thousand zhang. A colossal divine dragon, radiating waves of heat and flashing with thunderous light, roared into the heavens, its voice shaking the cosmos.
Without a moment's pause, the dragon opened its ferocious maw and charged toward the six-winged angel beneath the holy light, hurtling into the depths of space.
BOOM!!!
The massive explosion caused the entire Earth to tremble, and the gray sky erupted with dazzling brilliance.
In the face of such earth-shattering power, all living beings prostrated themselves, their souls filled with infinite awe.
Transforming into a streak of light, Sora also shot into the depths of space.
The six-winged angel's authority, "Angel's Holy Light," possessed three skills: the first, "Holy Light Protection," blocked all things; the second, "Holy Light Assault," pierced through everything; and the third, "Holy Light Explosion," annihilated all life.
Seeing the countless light spheres hurtling toward him, Sora knew he absolutely couldn't let them reach the ground—not even a single one!
He had no retreat left. The only thing he could do was swing his sword and destroy them one by one!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!!!
"How can we possibly win against such an opponent…"
Watching the sky light up like a continuous fireworks display, the girls on the lofty heights of Kouten wore expressions of fear.
Could it be that the world's time had truly come…
"Don't give up!"
"Although the opponent is strong, they're not unscathed. In the battle with Sora, the light around them has been gradually dimming. What we need to do is quickly recover our strength. Only then can we help Sora at the critical moment."
Observing the battle through the mental connection shared by Matsu and Kochou, Miya-nee's purple eyes flashed with a peculiar light.
Encouraged by Miya's words, the girls' spirits lifted, and hope reignited in their hearts.
Yes, their Ashikabi-sama was still fighting—how could they give up?
Watching the lone figure still battling fiercely, the girls' eyes shone with a light called determination.
…
"Ha… Ha… My sword can't cut through, my thunder can't pierce, my flames can't burn, my wind can't slice…"
"But—"
"Even if I have to drag you down, I'll do it!"
Gasping for breath, his entire body battered and bruised, Sora was at his limit. No matter what kind of attack he launched, he couldn't break through that indestructible defense. The occasional beams of light and spheres that struck him left him wounded in multiple places. If it weren't for his clones taking the hits for him at critical moments, he would have died several times over!
But Sora knew he couldn't retreat—absolutely not!
Though he didn't know why he had come to this world or what mission he was meant to fulfill, he loved this world and loved his parrots.
He wanted to protect this world—that reason alone was enough!
So, he would fight, until the moment of his death!
