The giant, a transformed Tower of Sealed Gods, versus me.
At sea.
“Dieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!”
The giant swung its arm wide, aiming a blow at me.
I could easily block that with a barrier.
I deployed a barrier. However…
“Master, the enemy’s attack will penetrate the barrier. Please evade,” Sinri, using the Omniscient and Omnipotent (Internet), predicted.
I used Greater Teleportation to teleport away from the spot.
“Damn! Why did you stop defending with the barrier midway through!?”
“Eh? It’s like the barrier is being bypassed.”
“Damn it…! With Uitenpen, they can change the shape of anything they touch. They saw through that the barrier’s shape can also be changed, so the barrier is meaningless…is that what they’re saying!”
“Seems like it.”
“Why are you so nonchalant about it!?”
“Well, it’s not like I’m the one who investigated it.”
Sinri was on the island, watching the battle with me through the Omniscient and Omnipotent (Internet).
“Fwahahaha! Too bad for you! What you don’t have but Master does…is support from a high-performance AI! In other words, ME! It’s because I exist that Master, a combat amateur, can fight!”
Sinri-san was completely carried away.
“I see… So, she has the Divine Power, but her combat level is that of an amateur! Good to know!”
“…………Ah.”
Oiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii.
“In that case, I’ll do this!”
With a squish, the giant’s form changed.
It still retained a human shape, but somehow, its physique was more refined.
And its entire body became muscular.
It jumped on the spot, thump, thump.
Each time, a huge tsunami occurred, but it had nothing to do with me, who was flying in the sky…
“Master! Evacuate!”
Before I could use Greater Teleportation to evade… the giant’s fist came right before my eyes.
I teleported away from the enemy’s attack by a hair’s breadth. However…
“The second attack is coming!”
“Too slowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!”
Dogooon! The enemy’s fist struck me directly…
“Tch…! She fired magic and used the recoil to evade, huh?”
As Circe said, I evaded the enemy’s attack using the recoil from an explosion spell.
“How did you know where I would teleport to?”
“Hah! That’s easy! I transformed this giant into the body of a professional fighter!”
“Heeh…”
H-He’s telling me…
“I incorporated the ability to read the enemy’s attacks, add attacks. That body movement, and eyes, combat IQ! That’s why I knew where you’d teleport to!”
“I-I see… Professional boxers, for example, anticipate the enemy’s attacks (from their line of sight, movements, etc.) and deliver a counter, right?”
“Fufun, exactly!”
…What should I do? This kid… is blabbing about her abilities on her own…
Even if she didn’t blab, I could search it up with the Omniscient and Omnipotent (Internet)…
In the first place, we’re enemies, so there’s no point in revealing our hand…
She’s more disappointing than I thought…
“Damn! I messed up. To think the enemy would exploit our weakness of giving advice in human language!”
Ah… I see.
The speed of searching and producing results is indeed incredibly fast because it uses AI.
But that search result is conveyed to me through Sinri’s mouth.
By launching a preemptive strike faster than the words can be conveyed, they can move faster than the evasive action based on the Omniscient and Omnipotent (Internet)…
“Master… the enemy seems to possess a high-spec brain on par with this super high-performance AI! Be careful!”
“Fufunofun! That’s right! My IQ is 530,000!”
…Wow, they’re both so stupid.
I can’t say that, can I…? Also, you guys are getting along well…
“Ora ora, die oraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
The giant unleashed a barrage of punches that would make a professional boxer blush.
Even when I teleported to escape, it had already launched an attack at my destination.
“It seems they’re predicting Master’s teleportation destination from your line of sight and positioning.”
I see… Safe locations are inevitably limited.
Furthermore, when teleporting, I inadvertently follow the safe place with my eyes. From that, they’re predicting where I’ll fly to.
This is quite something.
“They’re doing well!”
“Damn! Why aren’t the attacks hitting!?”
“That’s because, of course! We have a high-performance support AI!”
“What!? What do you mean…!?”
“Using the Omniscient and Omnipotent (Internet), I foresee the enemy’s intention to attack, and before the attack comes, I forcibly use the Teleportation Skill on Master!”
“Kuh! I see, by Sinri herself using the skill, she’s reducing the transmission lag! You’re doing well!”
“Fwahaha! How about that…!”
…The voices of the two echoed in my head. So noisy…
Also, Sinri is revealing too much of our hand…
“But you can’t win by just evading!”
“I know. Oberon!”
“What!?”
Oberon was behind the enemy.
Kaida-kun was standing next to Oberon.
“When did you!?”
“Fuwahaha! Let me explain!”
“Don’t bother! Oberon! Do it!”
Oberon raised his hands above his head and activated the magic.
“Absolute Zero Coffin (Celsius Coffin)”
A tremendous blizzard raged, centered on the giant.
Hyogooooooo!
The giant was freezing from the feet up due to the cold air.
Before the giant could escape… its body was trapped inside a coffin made of ice.
“S-So that’s it…! By becoming a decoy, she allowed her servant to prepare the magic!”
“Exactly! You were certainly strong… However! In order to attack Master, you were only focused on Master. As a result! You couldn’t deal with the fact that we would use other pieces to attack! How’s that!”
…You guys seem to be having fun…
“Damn it…! But… if they were preparing such a large-scale magic, I should have been able to notice it!?”
“That’s because…”
“We have Kaida-kun! His eyes are Spirit Eyes. A powerful appraisal eye. He searched for a place that would be a complete blind spot for the enemy!”
“Damn it…! I see…! As long as I have a human shape, I have blind spots!”
“That’s right! And the one who devised this plan was none other than ME!”
“Damn it…! I’m alone… you’re two! The final outcome is a difference in AI support…!”
“Ah,”
“Fwahaha! That’s right…! Your downfall is just one thing! You made me angry…!”
…The two of them were getting excited without me.
I don’t know what to say.
“Hey hey, how does it feel? How does it feel to lose to someone you thought you would win against? Hey hey.”
“Post-mortem kicking is bad manners, Sinri…”
Huh?
Pishi, piki piki…!
Pasha…!
The ice coffin that had been enveloping the giant turned into water and flowed out onto the spot.
“What!? W-What’s going on!?”
“I used the God Skill Uitenpen!”
“I see! Uitenpen freely changes the shape of anything it touches! The ice coffin is touching the giant’s body! Ice is made of water, so you transformed the ice into water!?”
“Fwahahaha! That’s right! Thanks to you blabbing on and on while you were getting carried away, I was able to come up with a countermeasure and execute it!”
“Kuh! What a schemer…!”
“Your downfall is just one thing! It’s you, you incompetent AI!”
…Well, I can’t deny that.
“P-P-P-Ponkotsu, you say!”
“Isn’t that right? The Omniscient and Omnipotent (Internet) is amazing, but the head supporting it is disappointing!”
“You called me stupid! Did you just call me stupid!? Whoever says ‘stupid’ is the stupid one, you baaaaka!”
“Shut up, baaaaka!”
…Looking at the two’s foul-mouthed quarrel, Oberon said.
“What… a low-level dispute. I can’t believe this is a battle between Gods…!”
