We cleared the way as we advanced, before finally arriving at the robust mansion where the leaders of the 【Nobles Faction】 and the Strong Grandson were gathered. At that point, we encountered the Water Hero, who was overflowing with fighting spirit.
With his five companions at his side, he was staring at me, or rather, at the Tomboy Princess who was sitting on my shoulder. With each of them holding a weapon in their hand, their intent to fight had filled the area.
I lowered the Tomboy Princess from my shoulder and entrusted her to the Boy Knight, before taking a step forward with Kanami-chan.
The Water Hero took this chance to unsheath his beloved sword, which was clad in water.
His sword didn't have amazing speed, but its peculiar movements that were similar to flowing water made it difficult to read its trajectory.
【Yatendouji's 【Heresy Nemesis】 has been activated】
【With this, Yatendouji has performed a “Hostile Action/Invasion Start” against the 【Heretic/One Who Has Awakened the Psalms】 and the start of 【Eschatology: War of Conquest】 has been declared】
【Until the fight has been settled, all of Yatendouji's abilities will be increased by 300%】
【Due to the 【Two God Class’】 Joint Battle compensation, all of Hekaterina’s abilities will be increased by 210%】
【Special Skill 【Heresy Nemesis】 will last until the conclusion of the battle】
――Just like that time with Avenger, an announcement suddenly flowed into my mind.
The Water Hero probably received a similar message. While he was surprised for a moment, a fierce smile immediately appeared on his face as he bared his fangs and attacked.
I smiled back at him as I roared and raised my vermillion spear with one hand.
...Almost ten minutes after the fight began.
Most of the surroundings buildings had collapsed in the aftermath of the battle, and there were many cracks that had spread across the ground.
Although we were injured, Kanami-chan and I were still standing, while the Water Hero and his party were lying on the ground, bleeding.
Although the Water Hero’s five companions had already lost consciousness, he was lying on the ground and glaring at us with hatred in his eyes. This irritated me, so I hit him with the butt end of my vermillion spear and knocked him out.
Right as I did this, another announcement flowed into my mind.
