The Devil Does Not Need to Be Defeated Chapter 271: “Time to Go Home and Take a Bath.”

Chapter 271: “Time to Go Home and Take a Bath.”

"Cut off… That horn…?"
When they heard Vivian's words, Lumia and Melika unconsciously looked over toward Diere.
There, Diere was violently roaring, and the magic power erupting from her was terrifyingly dense, making the horn on her glow redder and redder, more and more terrifyingly powerful.
Shien had already noticed that Airi, who was originally utterly nonplussed, was starting to show a hint of seriousness from the look in her eyes.
That means that if this was to continue on, then even Airi may not be able to easily deal with Diere's attacks anymore.
Yet, in this kind of situation, they're supposed to accurately aim a cut at that horn even while fending off Diere's violent attacks?
Shien at least doesn't consider this something that can be easily done.
Beyond that, the horn had already absorbed so much magic, so it's likely become quite hard now. Ther's no way that a half-assed attack will be able to sever it.
Even so…
"Just going to have to do it anyway then!"
Shien stopped hesitating. He charged toward that earthshaking, catastrophic battleground like a gust of wind as he moved toward Diere.
"Shien!"
"Mister Shien!"
Vivian, Melika and Lumia all let out startled gasps.
Even while still exchanging blows with Diere, Airi's eyes flashed. Then she pouted with a feeling of disappointment and spoke with a somewhat sarcastic tone.
"It looks like I'm tagging out now."
With that, Airi's dragon wings gave a light flap and she suddenly blasted away like a shooting star, instantly putting some space between her and Diere.
"Roar!"
Diere immediately roared and tried to follow.
However, at that moment, another figure had already reached her, blocking her way.
"Hey, still throwing a tantrum?":
Shien appeared before Diere and grinned at her.
"That's enough already. It's about time to go home and take a bath, brat."
When Diere heard Shien's playful voice, she hesitated for a brief moment, the crimson in her eyes flashed a few times, and the horn on her forehead also flashed.
However, Diere's face quickly contorted back into a vicious expression, and with a roar, she charge toward where Shien was with terrible force.
In response to that…
"Evolve!"
Shien instantly activated his [Limit Evolution] skill, imbuing his entire body with magic power, greatly boosting his power.
However…
"Clang-!!!"
When Diere's hand slammed into Shien's raised sword and a loud clang roared out along with an explosive release of force, Shein was blow away without the slightly resistance.
Shien just felt an unstoppable force act upon his body. Not only did the impact make his arms feel numb, his entire body felt like it was painfully struck.
This made Shien involuntarily draw in a breath.
"Shit, that strong?"
Such strength. Just how did Airi easily slap all those blows away so easily with just one hand?
While such thoughts were running through Shien's head, Diere's figure had already dashed before Shien like a bolt of lightning and swung down her fist while roaring.
Faced with the terrifying sound of the air exploding as that fist hurled toward him, Shien no longer dared to try blocking it head on.
Diere had already pierced his resistance skills once before, and right now, Diere is doubtlessly even stronger than she as back then. Taking it head on is unquestionably suicide.
"Whoosh!"
Thus, Shien's figure suddenly vanished, dodging that terrible looking blow from Diere.
The next second, Shien reappeared next to Diere in a flash.
Aced with Diere's incomparable strength, Shien had chosen avoidance, using his [Instantaneous Shift] skill to deal with it.
"Rrroooaaarrr!"
Diere seemed like she could smell where Shien is, and after roaring, she suddenly turned about and launched a crimson claw strike through the air.
Shien once again activated the [Instantaneous Shift] skill to vanish from where he was.
"Boom!"
Diere's claw strike instantly landed on the ground to the side and, with an explosion of dust, left several chilling claw marks there.
Shien on the other hand appeared on Diere's other side and raised the Holy Sword in his hands.
"Heresu!"
Faced with Diere's terrible strength, Shien finally unsealed his Holy Sword.
"Ping!"
With a divine flash of light, Shien's Holy Sword cracked and released a number of metal fragments that transformed into pieces of steal before shrinking into a ring on the sword's handle.
Shien had unsealed the fist seal on his Holy Sword, releasing its holy light.
A mighty power immediately flowed from the unsealed Holy Sword into Shien's body, greatly boosting Shien's aura.
"That's…!?"
As they personally witnessed that scene, Lumia and Melika both widened their eyes.
"Holy Sword…"
Vivian's eyes flashed unnoticeable as she stared in a daze.
Airi, still floating in midair, also saw this scene.
"So that's his Holy Sword, huh?"
Airi stared intently at the Holy Sword in Shien's hand with a serious expression.
The light from the Holy Sword had illuminated the entire canyon, showering it in a golden hue.
"Rrrooaaaarrrr-!!!"
Diere seemed to have felt threatened by that, and her roar turned even more fierce.
The horn on her forehead also shined an even brighter red, suddenly increasing the rate of magic power absorption and rapidly increasing Diere's power.
Shien knew that he can't drag it out any longer.
Otherwise, Diere would get stronger and stronger, to the point where not even he would be able to deal with it, perhaps even to the point wher not even Airi could deal with.
Thus…
"I won't be holding back anymore, Diere."
Shien readied his shining Holy Sword and launched a spell at Diere.
"[Enchant – Bind]."
Instantly, the air around Diere turned weighty. It suddenly sank and crushed down, locking Diere where she is in midair.
"Roooaaarrrr!"
Diere struggled with all her might, creating blasts of explosive force. It was quite terrifying to behold.
"[Enchant – Stiffen]."
"[Enchant – Imprison]."
"[Enchant – Seal]."
Shien cast more spells, this time three at once, adding three more enchantments to the air around Diere.
Those three enchantments are all high class magical enchantments. Coupled with Shien's amazing magic power, the effects were quite good.
Then there's the fact that Shien had unsealed his Holy Sword. Although it was only a single seal, it still added the effect of all skill levels +5, greatly increasing the power of [Magic – Enchant]. With several spells now on her, Diere is now completely locked in place by the air where she is, completely unable to free herself.
Even so, the horn on Diere's forehead is still absorbing tons of magic power, constantly increasing Diere's level.
At this rate, Diere would definitely gain the strength to free herself from the bindings of those spells within less than a minute.
However, Shien won't be giving her that kind of time.
"Alright, wake up."
Shien appeared before Diere and swung his Holy Sword down.
"Chink!"
The golden flash of the sword passed across Diere's forehead, severing her horn with a clear sound.
"Crack…!"
The crimson glow on that horn suddenly stuttered before immediately going dark while letting out a breaking sound.
A moment later, that red horn fell from Diere's forehead.
