Chapter 135: The Curses and the Black Taboo Part 2
Chapter 135: The Curses and the Black Taboo Part 2
Raigaki's power is unmeasurable in normal means that is why he is always being sealed. If Raigaki's power is slowly released, he will be a danger.
"Right now, Raigaki is still under the seal. According to Yaya, she has to put 20 seals on Raigaki's body to fully contain his power. Of course, his power is so immense that containing them all is impossible which is why he can still use magic. So if he managed to break all seals, he will destroy everything."
Just from listening to Godou's explanation, I can tell that Raigaki is a hidden time bomb ready to explode once his fuse is burnt out. I have seen Raigaki's ability when Yaya released one seal during the battle inside the Phantasmal Reality. What about if he got released from it?
"Wait, if he can destroy almost everything if he is unrestrained, how did he get his seals in the first place?" I asked.
"Unfortunately, I have no idea Kazuma. Yaya said it was a secret she can't say and no matter how hard we try to press on how it happened, Yaya won't reveal it at all."
I am getting more curious about Raigaki's past right now. However, I have no time to think too much in there. I still have to beat up those Curses to ashes.
Curses seem to be endless at first but after a continuous battle against these monsters, I slowly find out they are not many at all. They are just fast at multiplying so to stop them from doing so, I made wide attacks of flames on them, burning them in groups, causing their multiplying process to slow down a lot.
It didn't take me too long before I manage to clear them all out with the help of Raigaki, Kuma, and Godou. The cores are plenty and I benefit a lot from it as I managed to grasp my control in using magic that costs a lot of mana and covers a wide area.
"Good job everyone. However, we still can't let our guard down! The enemy who summoned and used the Curses is still here! We still have to find the enemy who caused all the mess!"
But we didn't expect the ground to shake a lot and a loud thud on the ground boomed the surroundings. Large particles of rocks and dust scattered in the air and the wind blows so hard that we need to make a hard stand on our feet to avoid getting blown away.
"What the hell is going on?!" Godou gritted his teeth as he embedded his hand to the ground that acted as his anchor to the ground to avoid getting blown away.

I have to use the Domain of Balmung to myself to withstand the strong current of air and barrage of dust coming towards me. Meanwhile, Kuma is holding on Raigaki who was not even perturbed by the impact. He looks calm but his aura is already domineering.
"Based on what I can scan in the distance, a large amount of dark energy accumulated has formed a giant monster. I can't get a proper scan with all the dust and the swirling dark mana around the place," Blue's voice echoed inside my head.
"A Giant? Seriously?" I frowned.
Fighting against demons and various monsters would be fine but fighting a giant is quite troublesome. Aside from size difference, the strength of a giant is a lot more times stronger than a normal person and a magician can barely hold against a giant unless they are strong enough.
Godou still has no idea what is going on since he is more focused on keeping himself intact on the ground to avoid getting blown away from the strong wind. On the other hand, Raigaki did not even flinch from the wind, and from the looks of his eyes, he is already eyeing the giant. I can barely see in this strong sandstorm and whirlwinds in our surroundings but I can make out a silhouette of a colossal being on the horizon. I still have no idea what that thing looked like.
"I had a bad feeling about this," Godou muttered.
Me too, man. You are not alone in that.
Another shake from the ground throws me off-balance. The tremor is strong enough to cause that much force and I almost canceled my Domain of Balmung.
I thought that I will be staying like this for quite some time while the giant is approaching but I didn't expect Raigaki to make his move.
"Aaaaaarrrrrggggghhhhhhhh!!! KILL THEM ALL!"
All of a sudden, a huge burst of chaotic mana engulfed the whole area. It was so strong that the dust and wind that threatens us from blowing us away immediately got dissipated in an instant.
"F*ck, the second seal on Raigaki has been destroyed!" Godou shouted.
"What?!"
"Damn it! We can't do anything about this sh*t! Raigaki will be really hard to restrain now! Back off Kazuma! We can't get ourselves involved in this battle!"
"But what about Raigaki and Kuma?!"
"I can tell that Kuma can regenerate if the body parts are damage so we don't need to worry about it. On the other hand, Raigaki is not someone we needed to worry about. We should worry about our lives instead because fighting with Raigaki without Yaya to restrain Raigaki anytime he goes berserk, we will lose our life. It's better to be a coward if we can live the other day and live to tell the tale than go back home dead!"
"Alright, alright! Stop saying poetic things, let's just get out of here and get into the distance where we can be safe from Raigaki's rampage!" I said and immediately drag Godou away from our position.
We landed on a distorted building's roof, which is far away from Raigaki and Kuma. Observing the battle is not a problem and the battle's damage won't reach here... I hope.
As our feet landed, Godou turns his head and break off from my grasp.
"Watch out!"
BANG!
I saw Godou block something using his rock hands but I did not see what it was. I only managed to hear the "Bang" sound just now.
"If you think it is safe here, you are wrong. Since the two of you didn't want to fight the Black Taboo, then you shall face me instead."
A woman's voice echoed in my ears. It was like she just whispered those words on my ears but I am quite sure no one did that. Godou kneel his left knee on the ground, shaking and panting.
"Man! Are you alright-" I was supposed to ask Godou if he didn't suffer much but it was foolish of me to ask seeing Godou's bleeding arms while the rock he used to morph his hands with has been chipped off violently.
"Careful Kazuma. The person who can use the Magic Arrows that we have faced earlier is this person we are going to face...ugh."
Sweat started to break off my forehead. I think I have underestimated the danger of this mission and we won't be able to leave without getting wounded and properly beaten.
