Chapter 419: Moving On...
The frog mother continued jumping from one place to the other crazily, as she started to grow more and more frustrated, but her simple minded mind made her do this without questioning her actions all that much, however, Yuki and Boxxy were not here already. They had in fact left the moment they started to just do nothing, they wanted to help the rest of the party after all! So the small clone of Abyss in there divided herself with a lot of effort, turning into two super tiny clones, with still the same amount of power over space magic, but well, with less potency to it.
Chaos clone with her also divided himself into two small clones, and the two tiny clones led the two girls towards the city across a super compact and small pocket space, which was the most the tiny Abyss clone could make, while the other two halves of the clone continued moving back and forth relentlessly, making the frog go on and on in her stupid rounds, without even realizing what was going on, and only growing slowly more and more tired of doing the same… Perhaps, with some luck, she would ultimately get tired in a few minutes, enough time for the rest of Chaos' party to manage to do what they came to do into the city.
"I wonder if that asshole of Brutus is still alive there…!" Said Boxxy.
"Well, if we find him alive, let's gang on him until he can't stop screaming for forgiveness…" Said Yuki.
As the two friends moved towards the battlefield, within the battlefield itself, a terrifying sight emerged before Chaos' allies, Belphegor had charged forward leading their group, but the powerful Brutus attacked him. For a moment, both began to fight in equal terms, but Belphegor started to overwhelm him, until in the last moments, she Brutus unleashed a strange form change which he called his "true form", meaning that the previous form was somehow a "weaker form"! Many of those seeing the scene thought of this scenario as completely ridiculous, but they couldn't even doubt it when it was happening right in front of their noses.
In that moment, Belphegor was defeated by Brutus as the powerful Orc God unleashed his truest form and used his sheer strength to break through the "Phantasmal Blazing Hell Cage" that Belphegor had confined the Orc God by using his raw soul as a space to capture someone inside and burn it until only ashes remained… Brutus defeated Belphegor, breaking his soul in half and shattering his skull into pieces, as he flew upwards and looked down at Belphegor falling from his grace, shattered and broken… His existence slowly began to fade away as Brutus recognized him and even called him for his name…
Natalia, who was the closest from Belphegor, ran towards him to help him, as she sensed that his torn apart soul still had some "life" to it, even though his physical vessel had been shattered into pieces. Brutus, for some reason, didn't stopped Natalia and let her do whatever she wanted, he left Belphegor to his own fate and didn't went to finish him off, as he had recognized him as a powerful warrior capable of pushing him near his limits.
However, as he thought about slaying the rest of his enemies, Ernesticia, Lucia, and a dozen of mechs armed with guns emerged behind him, his size was around five meters now, looking like a true giant before the two girls.
"W-What the heck?" Asked Lucia. "It has been a while since you ever showed off that form." The Moon Elf Goddess said, as she admired the enormous size of Orc, his appearance in this form was rather graceful, resembling more an Oni than an Orc, she even began to look at him with greedy eyes… Although Brutus seemed concentrated into the incoming army, his eyes turned sharp, and his aura emanated seriousness, he was not here to ask questions that were stupid.
"A-Amazing, you're really just… you already defeated one! I guess we have to take it easy." Sighed Ernesticia in relief, she was still weak, but with Brutus in here in such a powerful form, she believed that victory was almost guaranteed! However, Brutus seemed not relaxed at all, he was incredibly serious, dead serious, and he looked like he was greatly impacted by the short fight. Although his fight with Belphegor didn't lasted that long, it left a mark on his soul as the damage still had yet to fade away, and his own form change was also limited in time, in a few minutes he would be forced to go back to his green-skinned form, and would probably grow weaker due to his wounds inside his soul. He had to finish this battle quickly if he didn't wanted to risk his life and test the odds.
"Lucia, Ernesticia, support me, I'll slay them with this strength." Said Brutus.
"What? Calm down a bit, we should assess this slowly." Said Lucia.
"Yeah, why the hurry?" Asked Ernesticia.
"You fools. These people… they had grown stronger, way stronger than before, I was overwhelmed to the point of almost dying. I never take this form unless I am about to die, and only when I know I would die otherwise… This form takes lifespan from me, I cannot reckless overuse it." Said Brutus. "Now you two, listen to me and support me, I will brute force my way through against all of them, you use your abilities to surprise them from behind and aid me in battle as much as you can. The drones do the same, fight from a distance so you're not smashed with ease."
The two girls looked at one another, they had never seen Brutus speak so seriously in their entire lives, this entire thing was serious, this battle might even risk their lives, they couldn't take it easily. And even more, a dreadful feeling began to overtake their spines, sending chills down there which made the two girls tremble…
They cannot take this carefreely, or they would be the ones biting the dust.
