Chapter 182

CHAPTER 20 Last Chance As Seiya approaches Lucifer Crowe, Chaos Machina suddenly stands before him and gets into a fighting stance with her claymore. “Nowww you want to fight? After all that begging for your life? You’re not even worth Lucifer’s time. I’ll take care of youuu.” But Lucifer places a hand on Chaos Machina and pulls her back. “Do not underestimate this human. He is using a special ability to mask his true stats.” “Oh, myyy! Is he really? Because it doesn’t look like he’s hiding much to me.” I look at Lucifer’s face and shudder…because before I even realized it, a third eye had appeared on her forehead while she was staring hard at Seiya. “He has polished the skill to such a level that it would be impossible to see past it for most. His true stats, however, are even higher than both yours and Eraser’s.” “Hmph. I’m impressed you were able to see past my Fake Out. It appears she has clairvoyant powers similar to Ishtar’s crystal ball. What a waste.” Seiya points his blade at Lucifer and declares: “This is your last chance. Do as I say, Lucifer Crowe.” “I have grown weary of your ramblings.” Lucifer holds up her Magic Bow and pulls back an arrow. Seiya braces for an attack, but Lucifer shoots a pitch-black arrow straight into the sky. The clouds split open, and the giant spherical monster covered in eyes emerges. “S-Seiya! She’s going to use Diablos Rain!” With her eyes locked on Seiya, Lucifer says in a voice devoid of all emotion: “I have detected and locked onto every living creature in this town with the exception of us demons.” This is not good! While Cerceus and I should be able to survive the attack, Seiya is not a deity! Not only that, but… Nearby are Rosalie and Nina, still seeking comfort in each other’s arms. Rosalie looks up at the grotesque monster in the sky and tightly clenches her jaw, knowing there is nothing she can do. Ahhh! Everyone’s going to be killed at this rate! Is there really nothing we can do? Surely there’s only a matter of seconds before Diablos Rain begins. But all of a sudden… “Impossible…” Lucifer quietly mutters to herself. When I look over, she is studying the sky, but she’s staring in the opposite direction of where she summoned Magic Bow. I follow her gaze, but I can’t believe my eyes, either. “H-how…?!” Because there is another colossal, sphere-shaped, eye-covered monster in the sky! Seiya casually remarks: “I tried copying your move.” D-does that mean he Mimicked Diablos Rain and made that while I was worrying about Nina and Rosalie?! There are two orbs floating overhead. Lucifer’s eyes widen for a moment, but the emotion quickly leaves her face again. “No one can imitate my special move. That must be an illusion of some sort.” “It is just as you say, Madam Lucifer. Besides, humans cannot even use dark-magic spells, so it is nothing to concern yourself over.” After Eraser gives her a slight nod in agreement, Lucifer crosses her arms before her chest. “Fall upon my enemy: Diablos Rain.” The monster in the eastern part of the sky then explodes, transforming into countless trails of jet-black light, which rain over the town like missiles when…
