"Dangerous!" "Extremely dangerous!" "I might die!"
Tannin, who had just escaped the attack of the light arrows, looked at the divine arrow coming off the string, and an unprecedented sense of crisis emerged from the bottom of his heart! He had only felt this level of crisis from Great Red and Ophis!
"That's enough!"
Following the release of the attack that could penetrate the world, a slightly anxious voice rang out. Ajuka instantly appeared in front of Tannin using a transfer circle and stretched out a hand. In a split second, endless defensive magic was layered in front of Tannin! A large number of magic circles turned the sky colorful: Devil magic circles, Oriental magic, Nordic magic, and Ajuka's own unique magic circles... Ajuka had launched thousands of defensive arrays in a very short period!
"Crack! Kaka Kaka!"
However, these arrays were easily destroyed by Takumi's Brahmadastra! Until... the last one, which looked very cumbersome, but was actually the kind of powerful combination array considered to be at the Transcendent level.
"Crack!" Countless cracks appeared on the combination array! And then... it was penetrated again! Right through the center of Ajuka's palm!
"Sizzle—"
Ajuka frowned slightly. The arrow broke through the physical defense of a Transcendent and finally pierced Ajuka's skin, penetrating his outstretched palm! This was only the most powerful arrow; the other two arrows had been stopped by him.
"Such attack power... It seems I underestimated Takumi. He is already a mature combatant," Ajuka sighed, and then began to heal himself with a restoration technique.
"I'm going! I'll be... Damn it!" Tannin kept shouting foul language; he really felt like he was about to die! For the first time, he felt he had passed through the gates of death! Even with the powerful heart of a Dragon King, his heartbeat was still slowing down from the shock.
"Boom!"
After shooting that arrow, Takumi half-knelt on the ground.
"Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!"
The spiritual power of his whole body was evacuated in an instant! Although his spiritual power and source were recovering, it would take a few days to restore his peak combat power. But fortunately... the mission was completed, which is why he gave his all in the battle with Tannin. If it weren't for the sign-in, he wouldn't have done so much.
[Ding!]
[Congratulations on completing the Plot Sign-in!]
[Sign-in Level: Gold!]
[Sign-in plot: The Fear of the Dragon King.]
[Plot: Make the Magic Dragon Saint Tannin fear you.]
[Congratulations to the host for getting the reward: Excalibur Proto (Version of the Holy Sword of the Star)!]
[Excalibur Proto: The glorious holy sword that saves the planet. Forged to defeat foreign enemies trying to destroy the world, it is a golden blade that can repel almost all evil. This is the form in which six of the "Thirteen Restraints" have been released. Since it has not released more than half of the restraints, it has yet to exert its true power. Even so, there is no doubt it is a fierce light that destroys mighty evil. Unblocking all thirteen seals grants the power to save the stars!]
"EX-rank Noble Phantasm! Holy Sword of the Stars? I remember, this version is Arthur's holy sword, not Artoria's."
The difference is that Arthur's version is EX-rank, while Artoria's version is A++ rank.
"Takumi? Takumi?"
Ajuka immediately moved to Takumi's side when he saw him collapse, shook his head helplessly, and helped him up.
"You really are a monster. I don't think I'm qualified to be your teacher," Ajuka said with a wry smile, a hint of relief in his helplessness.
"Um... Teacher Ajuka, I'm going to sleep first. Please send me back." After Takumi said this, his body fell into a dormant state. Although he didn't have a single injury, the drain on his spiritual power was immense.
"Sigh." With a wave of his hand, Ajuka teleported Takumi back to the human world.
"Take a good rest. You may not have much rest time left." Ajuka's eyes were firm. Since Takumi has such strength, all his courses will be upgraded to the highest difficulty level! Even if he has to stay up all night, he will finish the curriculum!
"Lord Ajuka? Are you sure... are you sure he's really just your disciple?" Tannin recovered from the shock. Ordinary people don't know, but as one of the top beings in the Underworld, he knows exactly which two Transcendents reside there. This Takumi... actually broke the magic and physical defense of a Transcendent?!
"Indeed." Ajuka looked at the sky between dimensions and shook his head.
"Lord Ajuka, I see the future of the Underworld in him... No, the future of this world!" Tannin said with conviction.
"..." Ajuka pouted; I've already said this!
All in all, today's test went well. Ajuka put an end to the session, and the pocket dimension slowly disappeared.
Indian Mythology Realm
A teenager with dark blue and black hair, who looked like a middle school student, came to Brahma's territory.
"Hey... do you know where that fellow Vishnu went?" he said rudely.
Brahma shook his head gently. "I don't know. I only know that after the mutation occurred in the Far East, he has been uneasy." He doesn't have any ambitions, so he's happy to just let things be. However, there are many people with various agendas in their pantheon. For example, Indra is one, and Shiva, who is regarded as a rival by Indra, is another.
Seeing that Brahma didn't know about Vishnu, the boy named Shiva glanced at the sky. "I've searched everywhere, but there's still no sign of him. I think..."
"Do you think he headed to the island in the Far East? I think so too." A light flashed in Brahma's eyes.
"I guess it's to investigate the phantom that appeared. After all, that phantom has a lot to do with him," Shiva said. Others might not know, but they certainly do; it's natural for Vishnu to be unable to sit still.
"What do you think that was?" Brahma sighed. As a peaceful god, he doesn't want big changes in the world.
"High-dimensional existences... existences that crush us so-called gods," Shiva said with certainty. He is a famous battle-maniac, but in the face of an opponent of that kind, he couldn't even raise the slightest desire to fight! It was the first time he felt the sensation of being crushed. Even against the Infinite Dragon God, he wouldn't feel his life was in danger, but just watching those incarnations before, he had a near-death experience that was almost suffocating!
He didn't know that he didn't feel like he was going to die against Ophis simply because Ophis didn't have any hostility toward anyone other than Great Red.
"Is the wheel of history finally turning again?" Brahma said with a sigh.
However, the fact is: it is not the wheels of history that will turn, but the very frame of history that is falling apart! In the face of an enemy who can even cut off the head of Great Red in the future, the history of this world is about to shatter.
