"What the fuck?! "
As soon as Noelle finally made it through that extremely thick wall, she was immediately greeted with a jagged axe blade targeting her neck.
Even if she lost some of her strength in this place, it did not let Noelle off guard in the slightest. Noelle immediately lowered her head to dodge the axe, and turned 360 degrees while swinging the Langen sword that was still in her hand.
The large, curved blades that Langen had were perfectly suited for slashing, so he made a reasonable move.
After gaining the right momentum, Noelle instantly aimed the sharp part of her sword at the enemy.
The weapon that targeted his neck was an axe. In short, it was a type of weapon that was only used in close range.
Which means, the distance between himself and the enemy is not too far away. Langen's sword blade should be able to hit it.
Noelle's gaze was slightly blinded as her eyes were still trying to adapt to the light. But, it doesn't matter. His ears were good enough that he could even hear every step that everyone around him took.
Noelle increased the amount of energy in her hand, and twisted her wrist to move the trajectory of the sword. That way, it can target even more specific parts.
And just as he had predicted, as soon as he pointed his sword blade upwards, and directly swung it, he could feel Langen's black blade touching and digging into the thick, yet extremely tender, section.
It was probably meat. Noelle could feel a slightly hard part, while the sound of screams of pain filled her ears.
Ignoring that, Noelle immediately stood up and used her own right foot to give a boost to the burden that was before her.
Faced with the physical strength of a vampire was quite a frightening thing. It was evident by how his opponent instantly bounced far away and hit the wall, while Noelle did not move a single bit from her position.
Shortly thereafter, Noelle's eyes had finally adapted to the light outside. He looked around her confused.
Norman who was as confused as him also seemed to frown.
"Is not this place … "
"Are we back to where we were before? No, I don't think so."
Norman turned his head and looked at Noelle in confusion, questioning what he had muttered just now.
"You see, this place is exactly the same as where we were before. It's just, there's some slightly different details."
Thas right. The location where they are now may not be far from their destination. But, the degree of similarity this place had with the place they had started departing earlier made them a little mistaken.
Perhaps it was due to the structure of the building being made with identical patterns, so that anyone who came out of the endless passageway would be confused, and experience 'directional blind conditions'.
"It shouldn't be too far from our goal. Let's continue. Most importantly, we're out of that place."
Although it was a bit unfortunate to have to let go of shortcuts like the one they had just discovered, they had no other choice but to follow the new route.
It seemed that the enemy was completely on guard and created many of those annoying traps.
While Noelle turned her attention to investigate the surroundings, Kaira had come out of the barrier and ran towards the enemy that Noelle had previously kicked into the wall.
Behind her, Rias seemed to follow with a pale face.
"Why should I come here?! "
He looked panicked, and the color almost disappeared from his facial skin. Despite that, Kaira easily ignored her unrest and pulled her hand to run faster.
"Your skills are much needed here! Don't worry, I'll pay you after this."
"That's not what I'm worried about! "
Whether in the previous world, or in the present world, Rias was just an ordinary girl with no privileges. His nature was somewhat shy and awkward, but he could speak normally as long as there were people he knew around him.
Its value in all subjects is average, rather poor with mate-matics and physics. In short, he was the most normal person among all the reincarnators belonging to the Norman group.
And here it is now. Having to examine a person's corpse, just because he has the ability to read memories.
As soon as he arrived, Kaira immediately crouched down and checked the man's pulse. He's still alive. At least it's good.
Kaira was a little worried that Noelle would kill her by accident, but fortunately the final attack Noelle gave her only left her in shock for a moment.
The only problem is that he doesn't have a right hand. It was clearly cut off due to Noelle's earlier sword slash.
Kaira uses fire magic to burn her wounds, and stop the bleeding. He then pulled the man's head closer to Rias.
"He just fainted. Can you check her memory? "
"Uhh .. Alright … "
With full of compulsion, Rias placed her palm on the man's forehead. He also started using his skills.
However, something strange suddenly happened.
Rias surprisedly widened her eyes, and tried to double-check what she saw.
Kaira wondered what she found there, but Rias just shook her head.
"There's nothing. It's the same as before, I can't read her memories."
"What's really going on? "
Both of them could not understand this strange.
Is it because that person has a god blessing that is able to block Rias' skill! No, it can't be. The skill that Rias possessed could not be held back at all with just a godly blessing alone.
His ability can penetrate all types of mental defenses. Or at least that's what's been going on all this time.
"Hey, look at this."
In the distance, Liscia and Werli were grilling everyone, making their attention directed at the two people.
"What's going on? "
Noelle approached them, and asked the situation. He also received a surprising response.
Liscia throws something at Noelle, who is caught easily by her.
"This … "
What Liscia had just thrown was a hand. It was the piece of the man's hand that had dried up a little.
The blood had already stopped dripping from there, and a fishy smell slowly started to flow out from that slash mark.
However, that was not the concern of Noelle.
Something that made him feel curious was what was in the man's hands.
In his palm, there was something that he was very familiar with.
"Barcodes? "
Similar to a barcode, but Noelle had doubts about it. All there is is is a mixture of black and white lines. And at the bottom of that line, there's a row of letters that make up one word.
'VOYAGER', is what's written there.
...****************...
"What the fuck?! "
His right hand that tightly grasped the black sword Langen tried to move to slash forward, but it only made his balance broken.
Noelle was forced to jump backwards and utilizing her left hand to rest on the ground, she then threw herself far back.
The Langen he had previously held was now down and left behind, but that was no problem.
Noelle immediately pulled Verstand with her left hand, and threw it at the enemy who was already preparing in front of her.
Because of its curved shape, the thrown Verstand was spinning very fast with the momentum that Noel gave.
His blade then stuck on the iron plate that his enemy had made a shield.
Noelle pulled her left hand, which caused the thin thread connected to Verstand's handle to stiffen immediately, and made Verstand return to Noelle.
"You're unexpectedly strong enough, yeah .. Boy."
His enemy, a man with a large body carrying a chainsaw in both hands, laughed at him in a disgusting manner.
Noelle tried to ignore that, and tried to advance with Verstand. And at the same time, he took out several swords that floated around him.
He could already use magic normally now. But, Noelle did not have the time to change her fighting style.
Once Noelle was right in front of the man, the man immediately swung his chainsaw towards Noelle. But Noelle managed to divert the path of the saw with a slight movement. He then thrust his several swords into the man's vital points.
As soon as she managed to take back Langen, Noelle immediately used both of her hands to become a pedestal, and kicked the man's chin.
The man seemed to grimace for a moment, but he immediately regained his senses and advanced with brutal force towards Noelle.
The blade of the chainsaw that was rotating at a terrifying speed was directed right at Noelle's neck. Noelle tried to avoid that, but was unable to avoid it completely.
The base of his neck was slightly slashed, and made him drain very strong blood.
It doesn't hurt. The resistance seems to have returned. And the regeneration is back to normal.
Noelle sees the man getting ready again, which finally makes Noelle come along to prepare with Langen.
Verstand had been sheathed back, and was left hanging on her waist. Noelle then grasped Langen's handle with both hands, and made the same stance as the one that smashed the thick wall earlier.
The two of them advanced simultaneously, and their two weapons instantly collided, producing terrifying, as well as awesome sparks.
Langen's black blade got stuck in the chainsaw, causing the weapon to become jammed and unable to move.
But that's no obstacle for either.
The two of them simultaneously swung their weapons in the opposite direction, so that the part of their weapon that was snagged earlier was instantly freed.
Once done, the two of them jumped back and prepared for the next attack.
Noelle's a little down. His left leg was a bit far behind, while his right leg was still in place, and formed a very sharp crouching position.
Noelle's right hand easily lifted the large Langen, while her left hand was on standby in Verstand's still-gloved handle.
Meanwhile, his enemy, the man also did something similar. He squatted down a bit, and the rotating speed of his chainsaw became even more terrifying. Noelle probably wouldn't be able to withstand the power of that chainsaw with just her usual physical strength.
At the very least, he would have to gain a bit of reinforcement from magic, or he would be pushed off very easily the moment his sword collided with that chainsaw.
The two once again advanced simultaneously, Noelle swung Langen with all her might using both hands, and collided with the flaming chainsaw. That caused the speed of the chainsaw rotation to suddenly stop, and produced a shock wave that spread to both of them.
Not stopping there, Noelle continued to push her sword until it dug out and slowly cut the blade of the chainsaw.
Of course the opponent would not remain silent. He tries to release Noelle's hold by swinging his chainsaw, but Langen's black blade has stuck too deep so he can't just let go.
Noelle gritted her teeth and strengthened her own hand, then gave Langen a final push.
Seeing that he had no chance to fight back, the man immediately took off his grip on the chainsaw, and jumped far back.
Both of his legs with a loud voice landed on the floor, and the man immediately crouched down. He then creates a spring style with his feet, which in the end instantly makes in sliding towards Noelle who is still busy with the chainsaw.
However, it was a very fatal mistake for him.
Noelle smiled, showing her fangs. He then again swung his sword right at the man, while the chainsaw still stuck to the blade of his sword.
Of course, the results are predictable. The chainsaw that slowly detached from Noelle's sword instantly hit the man's head, and gave off an extremely strong bleeding. The vibration effect produced by the engine that was still on it strengthened the impact of the damage received by his brain, so he suddenly fainted.
Momentun still filled Langen, and made it embedded into the floor. Noelle took advantage of the opportunity by directly releasing her hand, and then pulled Verstand who was still sheathed at her back waist.
The direction of Verstand's handle was on the left, but Noelle actually used her own right hand to pull it so that she could provide a very drastic strengthening of her handheld power and attractiveness.
As a result, Verstand's silver sword was pulled at a terrifying speed, creating a slash that could not be seen by the eyes.
The only trace of the event, was the head of a man now lying on the floor, along with a pool of blood that adorned him.
As soon as she finished checking the situation, Noelle again sheathed Verstand, right after clearing the blood stuck to her blade.
But it doesn't end there.
Several enemy figures with physical characteristics similar to the man he just killed began to appear, using various kinds of weapons.
Noelle vexedly clicked her tongue. He then took Verstand out again, and at the same time also pulled out Langen who was still stuck on the floor.
Just then, a shouting voice called out to him from behind.
"Noelle! We're done with that one over there! Leave this place to us! You continue to search for Cryll! "
Norman with a sword in his hand advanced past Noelle, and dashed towards the group of enemies.
He unhesitatingly swung his own sword, and created a gust of wind that was so powerful that it condensed all enemies.
And when all the enemies began to rise to attack, Norman's eyes immediately narrowed.
All the enemies fell. Their bodies were like marionette dolls that had been cut in thread.
Noelle was surprised by the sight before her, and intended to ask Norman. However, Norman immediately returned his confused gaze with a lashed out look.
"Hurry and go before I start venting it on you! "
"okay."
Noelle obediently followed his words. He really did not want to get involved in such a troublesome matter as easing the emotional turmoil that Norman was experiencing.
For now, Noelle had directly advanced towards a door that would lead her to the storage room being located.
The goal is one, which is to reclaim Sword Geist, Cryll's star weapon seized by the enemy.
After that, he will save Cryll.
He made that decision not without reason. But because he knew that the enemy would not do anything to Cryll.
After all, the storage room where Sword Geist was located was quite close to the location Cryll was being held. So it never hurts to prioritize his weapons first.
