Chapter 1687: Going All-Out!
"Sorry for taking so long, Tisha, Pekora!"
Amidst the radiant blue light, something surged.
Someone!
A brilliant silhouette of a beautiful woman.
As the smoke dissipated, and as the two Demon Generals watched in disbelief at the one that completely nullified their attacks, her appearance was brought to the world.
A fusion of all her selves, a combination of her identities, of her past, present, and perhaps even her future.
The power of her Divine Beast Spirits combined into her single vessel, mixing together perfectly, her divine and wild beauty, her aura of both a beast, a dragon, and a goddess!
"Yuki?!" Tisha couldn't believe her eyes.
"S-She changed again..." Pekora muttered and smiled. Long silvery-white hair, sharp azure eyes resembling beautiful pearls, pale white skin covered on blue tattoos, white fur in her arms, chest, and legs, silver and azure colored dragon scale armor covering most of her body, a long and scaled, and also furred tail, a pair of enormous wings made of ice feathers, the patterns of a tiger in her fur, and her tiger-like ears on top of her head.
And her defiant smile, filled and brimming with a confidence not born out of nothing, but of her own newfound strength, and her acceptances of who she was and what she had become!
"Sorry for taking so long, I'll stop being an idiot and get my shit together!" she roared. "And sorry again... for worrying you so much. I really appreciate your friendship; I love you two so much!"
"Y-Yuki...!" Tisha smiled, feeling moved by her words. "Of course, we love you too!"
"You're like my little sister, Yuki," Pekora smiled. "You're my family, and of course, I love you dearly."
"Thank you..." Yuki smiled. "I've finally learned something important... That I am already special, and that I just need to accept who I am!"
"Damn right!" Tisha nodded.
"That's right, dear!" nodded Pekora.
"I might've been born as a rat, even as a beast... But I already know who I am, I am Yuki, a mighty and wild warrioress, inheritor of Goddess Amaterasu, wielder of the Ice Dragon Bloodline, and master of the Divine Beast Spirits!"
The Demon Generals looked down at her, laughing maniacally!
"Hahaha! What is that pipsqueak talking about, darling?!"
"She's so delusional, she's nothing but a hideous chimera! There is nothing beautiful about her!"
"Imperfect beings such as her... make me so disgusted, my darling brother!"
"I don't give a fuck about what you say about me!" Yuki laughed, smiling defiantly.
Her two arms gathered her Divinity, as two enormous spheres of Divine Azure Sunlight materialized.
"Eat this, suckers!"
She flung the two spheres towards the Demon Generals, who couldn't stop laughing.
"Hahaha! What is that little ball even going to do to us?"
"Foolish girl, you're asking for a beating!"
The two rushed down, swinging their sharp blade-like arms against the spheres of Divine Azure Sunlight that Yuki launched at them.
Yet...!
The closer they got to it within those seconds, the larger they became.
Before they could realize what was happening, both spheres became dozens of meters big, engulfing them both!
"Huh?!"
"T-They got bigger?!"
BOOOMMM!!!
Tisha and Pekora glanced at the scene in utter disbelief, fascinated by Yuki's new power.
After all, once the smoke dissipated, both demons were revealed to be half-frozen, and half melted.
Not only did Yuki's attack melted their metallic bodies, but it even froze them!
"U-uuggh...! W-What is thissss?!"
"D-Darling... It hurts like hell!"
"I'll call it {Azure Nova}," Yuki smiled. "The power of my Divinities converged together! The longer the projectiles fly, the larger and stronger they become. You melt with the intensity of the sun and then freeze with the power of ice! Do you like it?"
"LIKE HELL WE DO!"
The twin Demon Generals screamed in unison, quickly regenerating back to normal and furiously rushing down, their pink flames materialized into hundreds of gigantic, over thirty-meter-long weapons.
"Here! Take all our love with you!"
"Dam little bitch!"
They furiously unleashed their attacks against Yuki, yet the prideful girl only stood in front of me, smiling as her two fists gathered frost and draconic scales, becoming enormous, twenty-meter-big fists of frost and scales.
"{Divine Frost Dragon's Fists}!"
BAAM! BAAM! BAAM! BAAM! BAAM!
Moving her fists at lightning speed, Yuki destroyed every single projectile sent towards her, making them all explode one after another, her giant fists demolishing them, and the flames themselves not doing a single thing against her!
"W-What is this!?"
"Impossible!"
The twins rushed towards her, confronting her two against one! Yet Yuki parried their incoming blows, at the same time as she created four more Azure Novas, blasting their faces twice each!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
"Uuuaaaggh!"
"Hyyeegghh!"
"Tisha, Pekora, let's finish them!" Yuki roared.
"You got it!" Tisha nodded, quickly joining in.
"But how? Miranda can't parasitize beings made of pure metal like them!" said Pekora.
"There's a reason why Drake left us this job for us, he trusts us!" Yuki said. "And I think I've figured out a way to at least seal them, but I'll need your help! Tisha, can you distract them and keep cutting them?"
"Sure!"
"Pekora! Can you conjure all the plants and spirit power you can into some sort of cage that saps energy away?"
"I can...! But what are you planning?"
"You'll figure out once it begins, let's do it!"
The trio rushed towards the twins, who rapidly were regenerating themselves. The Steel Demons roared back, opening their jaws to release beams of pink flames everywhere.
"The same old trick gets boring quickly, you know?!"
Tisha smiled pridefully as she swung her blade, slashing through the beams of pink light with extreme precision, ultimately clashing against the two demons, her sword constantly cutting through their bodies.
"{Divine Frost Blade Domain}"
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!
Her Domain expanded, her attack power skyrocketing even more, the two demons were having a hard time even trying to land a hit with so many blows.
Quickly, they attempted to escape!
Yet!
"Not so fast, bastards."
A giant cage of Divine Wood surged out of nowhere, encapsulating their shredded bodies inside.
"W-What is this?!"
"Darling, I don't like this at all!"
"{Yggdrasil's Sealing Spirit Cage}!"
The grip of the wood tightened, as the two Demon Generals were instantly sealed inside!
They tried to fight back, but Tisha's damage was already severe, their cut apart bodies couldn't recover easily as they were far away in the moment of being locked inside the cage.
"And now..." Yuki's powers surged, combined together as one.
Her Divine Aura expanded into a Domain in the skies, resembling a beautiful blue lotus blossoming!
And from the blue lotus, a small and beautiful azure sun was born.
"{Divine Azure Nova Arts}: {Niflheim's Coffin}!"
The azure nova touched the entire cage of spirit wood, immediately exploding into a bright flash of azure light, freezing the demon generals inside and everything else within the cage.
They couldn't move, they couldn't even speak, they were completely and utterly sealed!
"A-Amazing..." Tisha muttered.
"It's ready to dispatch, send it to Drake!" Yuki said.
"Alright!"
Pekora quickly summoned a portal to Drake's castle, pushing the giant coffin of ice inside using the Dungeon Teleportation Devices.
FLUOSH!
Drake happily received his meal, smiling as he had seen how Yuki changed.
"Thank you, Yuki! My friend, I knew you could do it!"
His Aura of Gluttony opened its jaws, devouring both Demon Generals completely.
RUMBLE!
And even more power surged within Drake's Domain.
