Chapter 896 Aktzin vs Koneko & Kuroka part 2
But the moment Koneko\'s leg landed on his arm, he found himself unable to act anymore as the force behind it was several times stronger, bending his arm in a weird direction and sending him flying, "Kuhhh!!!!"
Aktzin was confused by the sudden spike in her strength because he had never met and fought with anyone like that, but he didn\'t have any time to think about this as he saw Koneko already under him and about to punch a hole through his stomach. Aktzin did his best to rotate the midsection of his body to avoid the punch and was successful in doing so.
And using the momentum of his dodge, he whipped his leg out towards Koneko\'s face, but he was shocked to see that Koneko had caught it with her free hand easily before he was swung and thrown towards the ground. This time, he didn\'t have any spare energy to alter his trajectory or momentum and crashed into the ground with a force that was enough to break several of his ribs, some of them piercing his lungs and making him cough up blood.
Koneko looked down at the dust she\'d kicked up and waited for it to settle, until she saw the God in the middle of the crater who was already on his feet while wheezing. After this instance, Koneko became much more comfortable and confident with her own strength.
Aktzin, on the other hand, began to regenerate his wounds, but the rageful expression he was making was now contorting his face to an extreme degree, "...Don\'t.... Look down on me!!!!!"
At the same time he raised his voice, he also unlocked the full capabilities of his Divine Avatar and emitted a golden pillar around him that pierced through the sky and reached the outer boundaries of the artificial space. The golden pillar of Divine Power pushed both Koneko and Kuroka away due to its intensity, and even put several cracks in the boundary that made it look like the pillar would break free.
Luckily, that didn\'t happen and soon the cracks in space began to heal themselves, \'Thank goodness that we asked Ophis-chan to handle the artificial spaces, since we didn\'t have the Devil manpower to maintain something like this.\' Kuroka thought while returning her sights towards the God that was already fully healed.
\'That looks bad, nyaa... And he still hasn\'t pulled out any of his weapons. With Shirone\'s actual ability, she\'d be able to defeat him as long as she doesn\'t allow him to get any more advantages, but I doubt that, nyaa... What should I do, I wonder.\' Kuroka became worried about the well-being of her sister but she couldn\'t interfere that easily or this whole thing would lose its purpose.
Koneko on the other hand, raised her guard up and swallowed a mouthful of saliva as she became a bit nervous and fearful of the aura he was emitting. But while contemplating what she should do next, the initiative was taken away from her when Aktzin suddenly became covered with electric arcs and suddenly appeared right in front of Koneko with a sudden acceleration, "!?"
Koneko hurriedly put both of her arms forward in a defensive block, but this time, she was already too late as she\'d underestimated the speed of Aktzin\'s arm. The God\'s fist went through before Koneko could close her arms and she was hit directly on her chest, "Guhh!!!!!"
As if payback from earlier, several of Koneko\'s ribs were broken and she lost the ability to breathe momentarily, while her chest plate crumbled into pieces. Thanks to her Soul Gear, she didn\'t suffer from any more damage.
Nonetheless, Aktzin isn\'t done yet as he poised himself to send out another but a more devastating attack.
Seeing this, Koneko bit her tongue in an attempt to regain her senses and shouted, "Panzer!"
Koneko\'s armor then began to move at blinding speeds and seemed to add more material out of nowhere with her boots and leg guards entirely moving up to her arms and her wings moving in front of her creating a massive kite shield that spanned her whole body.
In response, Aktzin only further gritted his teeth and put more strength behind his punch since he knew that she had no way of retaliating. But before his fist could land on the shield, a force field met it first and exploded outwards, significantly reducing the force behind his fist and even burning his arm, \'A reactive armor!?\' Aktzin hurriedly pulled back to avoid any further damage to his arm.
Koneko, meanwhile, bounced back and crashed into the ground, mowing down trees in her way. But thanks to the spherical barrier around her, she was relatively unharmed. The kite shield then split into two and floated towards her sides, revealing the giant mechanical arm that almost touched the ground even while she was standing upright.
Aktzin saw a white flame lit up on Koneko\'s chest but he didn\'t think much about it and raised his burnt arm. As soon as Koneko perceived this, she became wary of the sky, but she was wrong about it as the Magic Circle emerged in front of the God and it was incomparable to the previous ones.
Koneko didn\'t want to risk it so she intended to dodge. But just as she was about to move away she felt her legs stuck in their places. Koneko instantly looked down and saw a thin layer of water wrapped around her legs, \'When did he!?\'
"Die," Aktzin muttered with a crazed grin as a mass of blinding lightning was ejected from his entire arm.
Koneko panicked but there was already no other way. The two halves of the kite shield floated in front of her and a translucent blue barrier appeared once again. Gritting her teeth, Koneko put her mechanical arms behind the shield as they caught on fire with white flames that extended around the edges of the shield, \'I\'ve never absorbed energy to this degree before, but if I can\'t dodge...\'
The lightning slammed into the translucent barrier first, and like in the previous instance, a reactive explosion pushed back the lightning a bit. However, it wasn\'t able to do anything to stop the four foot wide beam-like destruction as it blasted through the barrier with ease and reached the shield.
With her first layer of defense broken, Koneko began sliding backward with the fetters on her legs disappearing, "Ghhhhhh!!!!"
The kite shield started cracking from pressure, but the white flames on its edges were also set in motion as they began encroaching towards the middle and silently \'eating\' the lightning.
\'!?\' Aktzin didn\'t know what\'s going on anymore, but the white flames were giving him some weird premonitions. Nevertheless, he continued releasing his Divine Power, albeit, he couldn\'t really do this for long, so he instead intensified his attack for a more instantaneous power in exchange for the duration, \'I have to kill her now!\'
But contrary to his expectations, Koneko kept holding on and he also noticed that her ears and tails had now also caught afame the white fire too and a fifth tail made out of the same white fire had started to extend too.
"Hnnggg!" Aktzin put more power into his lightning and almost broke Koneko\'s shield. Even then the white flame only burned more intensely as her sixth and seventh tails also began to emerge, \'W-what\'s this!?\'
Confusion took hold of Aktzin\'s mind because he\'d already estimated how much Koneko could take from their previous exchange, \'Something\'s not right. She should have already fallen long ago.\'
