Kurumi Tokisaki's Planar Journey - Chapter 495
Kurumi’s divine spirit armor was transformed into pure white and adorned with delicate gold patterns.
The divine radiance altered her demeanor, and an aura of nobility and inviolability surrounded her.
Her toes pointed downward, floating in the air, divine energy coursing through her like a river, supplying her spiritual body with vast energy every second!
Though the divine boost did not entirely erase her fatigue, she was far from feeling drowsy.
Even without the rules of this realm, Kurumi in this state was close to her peak strength!
Her emotional fluctuations dropped to near zero, and even the highly threatening “Chains of Heaven” barely registered as a concern.
“Splurt!~”
Water splashed as a disheveled figure burst out of the river, landing on the ruined bridge. Gilgamesh’s face was a picture of fury!
His golden hair fell back, his face drenched, smelling the fishy odor of the water!
Recalling the summoning of the sea monster by Caster here, Gilgamesh felt a wave of nausea!
The entire waterway had been filled with blood and remains, and though purified, the memory lingered…
His anger rose; even the black rat hadn’t infuriated him to this extent!
“Woman!” His crimson eyes reflected the divine glow around Kurumi, an image too sacred to defile.
A flash of killing intent!
With a wave of his hand, his magic evaporated the water from his body, and the “Gate of Babylon” reappeared behind him!
“You’ve succeeded in angering me! No matter how much I favor you, you must be punished!”
…
The river was quiet, and Kurumi, in her divine state, had no desire to speak. The divine glow around her formed illusionary spirits singing praises.
While “Nightmare” continued to wrestle with the “Chains of Heaven,” most weapon systems cooled down and were ready to fire again!
The night wind blew awkwardly.
Gilgamesh’s expression hardened, golden ripples spread behind him, and various sharp weapons pointed at Kurumi!
“Buzz~”
“Swish swish swish!——”
The frequency of the attack was even faster than against the King of Conquerors. From “Nightmare’s” perspective, half the sky was filled with weapons from the “Gate of Babylon”!
And her master seemed to have nowhere to hide!
In her usually indifferent divine state, Kurumi’s eyes, tinted with divine golden light, finally sparkled!
The divine glow around her whipped into a gale, and the divine power seed within her vortex wildly poured out energy!
Her right hand, illuminated by divine light, extended, and her slender fingers pointed!
A milky white light at her fingertip compressed immense divine power into a single point!
“Nightmare” observed the cracks in the “Chains of Heaven” slowly repairing, but as Kurumi unleashed her divine power, the chains trembled more violently, seeming ready to break free from the Red Queen’s control!
With no other option, “Nightmare” diverted energy from the laser weapons to the limb armor!
Armor on “Nightmare’s” arms unfolded conventional weapons, not for attack, but to make space for cooling!
The Red Queen first regretted her placement. If “Nightmare” could submerge in a strong current, it wouldn’t face such a predicament!
Now, she could only hope her master quickly dealt with Gilgamesh and stopped playing around!
Because… in this realm, “Nightmare” had no near-Earth orbit satellites for resupply!
On the far side of the river, away from the collapsed bridge, numerous Noble Phantasms from the “Gate of Babylon” were trapped between them!
Gilgamesh’s face fluctuated with emotion; the speed of the ripples behind him varied.
Every speeding Noble Phantasm entering the divine glow field slowed to a crawl!
Even so, he was confident! No matter how much divine power she had, it couldn’t surpass his Noble Phantasms!
But those trapped in the divine glow field started to crack, just like the “Chains of Heaven”!
However, unlike the chains, these other Noble Phantasms couldn’t be repaired by the “Gate of Babylon” under divine pressure and would be permanently damaged!
Even as the oldest king with all the world’s original Noble Phantasms, such consumption pained Gilgamesh!
Who knew how long the witch could hold out? Who knew how much divine power she had left?
His gaze pierced the “delayed zone,” and Kurumi’s disinterest enraged him!
If not for the “Chains of Heaven” being tangled with that strange armor, he would have already taken this arrogant goddess back for discipline!
He attempted to recall the “Chains of Heaven,” but they were firmly held by “Nightmare,” neither side budging!
His eyes narrowed, and a smile curled on his lips.
“Buzz buzz buzz——”
Golden ripples expanded from the “Gate of Babylon,” launching countless Noble Phantasms instantly!
Entering the divine glow field, they moved slightly faster but broke more quickly!
Golden streams filled the divine glow field, and even the Red Queen marveled at Gilgamesh’s wealth!
To her, these Noble Phantasms were precious metal resources! Though their composition was unknown, their properties made her envious!
Her master’s passive stance left the Red Queen exasperated.
“Your Highness, even if you disregard other beings, shouldn’t you at least eliminate those who disrespect you?”
Gilgamesh wasn’t here for fireworks!
This level of divine indifference left the Red Queen unsure how to react. Should she put an electric shock device on her master?
She shook her head, fearing the protective divine glow would destroy the device before activating.
Golden streams filled the divine glow field, and some Noble Phantasms were reduced to metal fragments!
This barrage reminded the Red Queen of attacking native villains with a small scout ship on a primitive planet.
So similar…
“Mm?!”
The Red Queen’s data stream eyes narrowed, and Gilgamesh silently locked on for an attack!
Her master was still in a trance!
Seeing the incoming Noble Phantasms, the Red Queen felt doomed!
