Aqua's body burst out with unbelievably bright light, forcing Satou Kazuma to raise his hand to shield his eyes.
Is this useless goddess trying to look cool at this crucial moment!
"My beloved followers, shout out our teachings!"
Aqua raised her head, a confident smile on her face.
At this moment, I have countless followers supporting me!
The stronger the faith, the stronger Aqua's power will be!
"Aqua-sama!"
The followers shouted in unison.
The flames in Aqua's hand grew even stronger!
"Axis Church followers can do anything if they're serious!"
The flames flickered in Aqua's eyes, reflecting her increasingly firm resolve. All eyes were focused on her.
"We're the kind of people who can do it, and if we can't, it's not our fault!"
She clenched her right arm, every inch of muscle silently tightening and coiling, like a giant snake gathering the power to crush mountains. It was no ordinary flame, surging and colliding between Aqua's fingers, eager to be released.
Aqua felt a scorching torrent rushing out from the depths of her heart, surging down her arm and into her fist. The bones in her entire arm made a roaring sound like a beast under the surge of this power, emitting a dazzling light like molten gold!
"If it doesn't go well, blame the world!"
"It's okay to run away from things you hate!"
"Don't be afraid of getting old, even gods don't know if you'll be happy in the future!"
Hearing the shouts of the Axis Church followers, everyone else stood frozen in place.
"Is this, chanting some kind of magic?"
Crusch also opened her eyes wide, looking at Aqua in surprise.
The ferocious white whale charged directly towards Aqua, but the latter showed no fear.
"Useless goddess, is she finally going to be useful!"
Satou Kazuma also smiled as he looked at Aqua's back.
In his eyes, Aqua finally looked like a goddess!
Although I don't know why Aqua, as a water goddess, is using attacks that burst forth with flames.
But let me see what extent this useless goddess can reach!
My blood is boiling!
Aqua, use a flame punch on it!
Even though the white whale was crashing towards them like a meteor, and the resulting shockwave was causing dust to fly up from the ground, neither of them had any intention of backing down.
"Defeat demons, punish the Demon King! Defeat demons, punish the Demon King! Defeat demons, punish the Demon King!"
As the Axis Church followers let out their final shouts, Aqua moved!
Her right fist, as if carrying the will to burn everything, burst forth like a red comet breaking free from its restraints!
Space violently twisted and wailed in its path!
In Aqua's eyes, the air in front of her fist was instantly compressed and ignited, seemingly transforming into a roaring golden-red dragon! About to devour the monster in front of her.
"God's Requiem!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Aqua's blazing flame punch slammed directly into the white whale's face, followed by a huge roar!
It even created a sonic boom.
But the source of the sonic boom wasn't Aqua's fist.
It was Aqua's own body.
Aqua was ejected like a small stone being kicked up by a car tire.
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-"
The sound became more and more distant, smaller and smaller, enough to prove how far and fast Aqua was flying.
"?"
Satou Kazuma's mind was full of question marks.
But these question marks only lasted for less than half a second.
Because the next moment, he flew out along almost the same trajectory as Aqua, at the same speed.
At the end of Satou Kazuma's landing, Aqua was already standing upside down in the dirt like a signpost marking the finish line.
"Thanks, you useless goddess."
......
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!"
The source of the scream was Eris.
Because Satou Kazuma in the chair in front of her could no longer be said to look like a human, and could even be described as somewhat slime-like under the huge impact.
"%&%"
The object formerly known as Satou Kazuma made a sound, but because the parts involved in making the sound had been severely damaged, the sound was now unclear.
"I understand, I understand, please, please don't talk, I'll, I'll send you back now."
Although Eris couldn't understand what Satou Kazuma was saying, she guessed that Satou Kazuma wanted to be resurrected as soon as possible, so she sped up.
"Please be a little more careful, Kazuma-san... try not to die again! At least... die normally!"
"...&*%!!!"
Satou Kazuma seemed to become a little agitated.
"I understand, I'll send you back now, Kazuma-san!"
"#￥%!!!—Don't send me back!!!"
Satou Kazuma suddenly stood up.
He finally came to his senses and realized that he had been successfully resurrected and had returned to the real world.
Satou Kazuma had been shouting his loudest to stop Eris from resurrecting him so quickly.
The thought of having such a crazy goddess made Satou Kazuma's head spin.
He turned his head and found that Aqua had already crawled out of the dirt.
"Kazuma, you're awake."
As Aqua spoke, a lot of dirt and stones fell out of her mouth.
"I... you..."
A thousand words gathered in Satou Kazuma's mouth, but in the end, he couldn't say anything.
I shouldn't have had any expectations for this useless goddess!
She clearly created such a passionate scene, but in the end, she just messed everything up!
"This, this isn't my fault! My God's Requiem is a special technique created specifically for demons and the undead! But who knew that this guy basically doesn't count!!! It's clearly targeting me!!! It's not fair, it's not fair! Where are all the undead and demons in this world?!"
Aqua sat directly on the ground, flailing her limbs like a spoiled child.
"BaKazuma!"
Just then, Beatrice rushed over with a worried look on her face.
But when she saw the two people in front of her, her cute and innocent face was instantly filled with surprise.
These two people were directly hit by the white whale, yet they were unharmed?
Even someone fully armored would definitely be crushed to pieces, right? It would be lucky if they didn't turn into mincemeat.
But these two people were acting like nothing happened?
Really?
"White, how's the white whale?!"
Satou Kazuma quickly asked.
His soul returned to the god realm, so he didn't know what happened after that.
Satou Kazuma, who activated the Taunt skill, didn't know if it would reset after he died.
If it didn't reset, then the white whale would quickly attack them again!
"The white whale has been defeated!"
Beatrice held up her small finger and pointed behind her.
Satou Kazuma followed her finger and saw that the monster called the white whale had fallen on the ground, unmoving.
Around its body, there was a huge pit, as if it were a grave specifically made for burying it.
"Kazuma-sama!"
At the same time, Crusch rode her earth dragon, rushing towards Satou Kazuma and the others with a worried expression.
"Are you alright?"
Crusch quickly jumped off the earth dragon and came to Satou Kazuma's front, preparing to have Felix check Satou Kazuma's injuries.
"I'm fine!"
Satou Kazuma quickly took a step back, refusing Felix's good intentions.
"No way, guys, how did you do it?"
Ricardo, who came with them, looked at Satou Kazuma in disbelief.
He clearly saw Satou Kazuma and Aqua being directly slammed by the white whale.
No one could have survived that, right? It would be lucky if they didn't turn into mincemeat.
But these two people were still jumping around?
Really?
"This is all because..."
Satou Kazuma had the words on the tip of his tongue, but his gaze fell on Crusch.
She has the ability to see through lies, so I'll definitely be suspected if I give a weird answer.
If I say that I actually died and turned into mincemeat and then was resurrected by Aqua, and that Aqua is actually a goddess and has superhuman physical abilities, even if Crusch realizes this isn't a lie, she'll definitely think I broke my brain.
"It's all because of Aqua-sama."
When in doubt, Aqua.
Well, in a way, Satou Kazuma isn't wrong.
Aqua, who thought that Satou Kazuma was saying that she successfully resurrected him, immediately revealed a smug expression:
"That's right, it's all thanks to this goddess!"
Crusch looked at Aqua, her brain also turning rapidly.
Could it be that Aqua used some kind of magic?
Crusch also saw the incredibly bright flames bursting out around Aqua's body, and she decided that this was the answer.
"Um, Crusch-sama, what exactly happened? What happened just now?"
Satou Kazuma looked at the white whale, which was no longer moving, with a confused expression. There seemed to be two people frantically whipping the corpse on its body.
"Kazuma-sama, your and Aqua-sama's plan succeeded!"
"Our... plan?"
Aqua's face was full of confusion.
"That's right, you must have used some kind of magic to attract the white whale's attention, causing it to change direction. It seemed to have used you as its target, but because of its large size and momentum, the white whale crashed directly into the ground. Although it didn't die completely at the time, just like Kazuma-sama said, its power was weakened, and our soldiers swarmed forward and finally killed it."
Crusch's face was full of smiles.
After splitting, the white whale's power was greatly reduced. No matter how high its defense was, it naturally couldn't withstand such dense and frequent firepower and attacks.
"Huh? I just..."
"Great, as long as the plan can succeed!"
Before Aqua could speak, Satou Kazuma took the lead and said.
Satou Kazuma just wanted to use the Taunt skill to stop the white whale from escaping, create more attacking opportunities for others, and wait for the white whale to approach before having Beatrice teleport him away.
But it was because of blindly trusting this useless goddess that he was resurrected again.
But Satou Kazuma didn't expect that after being taunted, the white whale would directly crash into the ground due to inertia.
Satou Kazuma now knew that his Taunt skill wasn't the kind of forced control skill in games, but only created the idea of wanting to attack him in the target's mind.
The means and methods of attacking are decided by the other party.
When Satou Kazuma fought Elsa the Bowel Hunter before, he wanted to use this ability to lead her into a trap.
But Elsa went right over the trap.
Taunting only makes the other party shift their attack target to yourself and doesn't affect their way of thinking too much.
And the reason why the white whale crashed into the ground was probably because it was a monster without enough intelligence.
Even if it showed some thinking ability before, it was only at the lowest level.
This is the only explanation that Satou Kazuma can think of right now.
It can't be that Aqua's attack really had an effect, right?
By pure strength?
Or is it because the white whale was a creation of a former witch, so it would be somewhat affected?
Satou Kazuma isn't sure either.
But whatever!
The white whale was successfully defeated!
They are now heroes of the world!
Money! Power! Beauty!
Everything is beckoning me!
"Kazuma-sama, that person is also your subordinate, right?"
Just then, Crusch's voice pulled Satou Kazuma back to reality.
He turned his head and saw that Crusch was talking about Elsa, who was still following behind Wilhelm and frantically cutting the white whale's body. She was now like a hungry hyena in the grassland, holding a scimitar and stabbing at the white whale.
The Bowel Hunter lives up to her name.
"What's her name?"
"Elsa."
"She must have had someone very important taken away by the white whale, right?"
"Yeah..."
"Kazuma-sama, thanks to you, these warriors, and Wilhelm, were able to fulfill their wishes. The spirits of those who passed away should be able to rest in peace."
Crusch looked at Satou Kazuma, then grabbed his back and lifted him high:
"The white whale, under the command of Satou Kazuma! Was personally killed by Wilhelm Astrea and Elsa!"
The cheers erupted like a tsunami, and all the soldiers shouted excitedly, raising their arms and cheering.
They successfully defeated the monster that had been wreaking havoc for four hundred years!
This white whale subjugation battle successfully ended with no casualties other than Satou Kazuma dying twice.
