Item Screen
"Hihhihyaaaaaa!!"
All nine tails started cracking all over the place like supersonic whips.
Nine fans floating around Kyuubi also flew around by themselves, slicing anything they touch.
"Uwaaaa!?"
"Careful! Watch out for both the tails and fans!"
"Each of those fans is super hard like they're made of diamond of some sort! Getting hit by those will hurt like hell!"
"Aaaaaaaaaaahahahaha!!"
Kyuubi smiled devilishly while making some incomprehensible noise that don't even form a word.
She's not sane anymore. Or maybe she's only acting like it.
"Kiiiiiii!!"
"Ugwooooaaaa!!"
Spada blocked Kyuubi's claws.
He had to use 'Qi Clad' and still barely made it.
How strong is this Kyuubi's form anyways...?
<<Unable to confirm Status. However, her Attributes are estimated to be around 10000.>>
Oy oy oy, the hell is that. She's seriously on the level of a last boss for real.
That's bad, Spada's Attributes seem to hover around 5000 with Qi Clad active while Kira-san's are not even half that.
Even Alma Papa would have a hard time reaching five digit, frankly.
Can't be helped, guess I'll deal with the main body.
"Geezer, swap with me! I'll take her on, you cut down those tails and fans!"
"I-it's impossible for you, young 'un! This thing's beyond tough! Even I find myself struggling!"
"Just get back, you!!"
"Muoo!?"
I flung Spada back with Remote Mana Control and lunged at Kyuubi.
"Kihihihihi! Fodder! Fodder! Sacrifice! Sacrifice!!"
Kyuubi swung her claws at me while rambling incorrigibly.
I grabbed back and locked hands with her, my hands coated in mana already.
"F, fool, her strength is not normal! Your hands will get crushed!"
"Kajikawa-kun, don't push yourself!"
That's true, at 10000s STR, her grip strength must be insanely powerful.
She can probably crush steel into powder with bare hand.
But
"Gih!? Ugugu...! Gugigigigigi....!!"
"What's up. Try and squeeze me."
"Gigigi, gyaaaaaaaaa!!!"
Kyuubi's face warped as the bones in her hands creaked.
I can easily double her grip strength with Localized Energy Control buff.
I've got my hands coated in mana so her Physical Attack Void doesn't work either.
Ten thousand high Attributes are nothing to me now.
Also, I realized there was no need to seriously play along with this.
I activated Mana Pile Bunker from my palms!!
The stakes pierced in Kyuubi's palms and blew up.
"Kyaaaaaaa!! Aaaa!? Aaaaaaaa!!!"
Kyuubi wailed in pain from the pain of her hands popping off.
Her tails and fans are starting to move erratically. That worked well.
"U, uwaa, that's nasty..."
"He's brute forcing that brute. Who's the actual monster here..."
Kira-san and Spada murmured while striking down the slowed tails and fans. Oh shut it.
This thing may be strong, so are her tails and fans.
But she must have born strong from the start, she's got zero sense and ingenuity in combat. Just like that White Demon.
They're very strong, either on their own or thanks to weapons or gear, yet they never seem to bother mastering their power.
I can easily overpower them simply by raising my Attribute against hollow strength like that.
"Aaaa!! Uaaaaaaaaa!!!"
"Shut up. Die."
I'm a bit hesitant attacking a weeping and shouting beauty but considering what she's done, she must die here.
I'm readying a High Powered Pile Bunker aimed at her head.
0.5s to activation. This will--
"Aaaaaaaeruaaaaha❤"
Kyuubi's wailing face suddenly turned into that of a relaxed smile.
A moment later, a fan shot out of her mouth, turned into a spear and stabbed my head.
"Gah...!?"
"Ahahaha, ahahahaha! Fool, you dropped your guard! Did you truly believe I have lost my sanity? All of that was for the sake of entombing the biggest obstacle here, you!"
"K-Kajikawa-kun!!"
"Young 'un! How dare, you!"
"Resign yourself. You hold no chance of victory now that this man is no more. Come now and offer yourselves as sacrifices! Hohoho, hahahahahaha!"

"Who's dead again?"
"Hahaha... Ha?"
I put away the fan lodged in my head to Item Screen.
Uwaah, I lost nearly 1000 HP. Guess I can't compare that to a bandit's arrow.
"H-how? M-my fan pierced your head, I made sure of that!"
"I ain't gonna die from that. I would if you gouged my heart out tho'."
"No uh, you'd die either way though!? Kajikawa-kun, seriously who are you!?"
"...Really, who's the real monster here. Unthinkable."
Oh give it a rest, peanut gallery! I'm sick of listening to the same old impressions already!
"Hi, hiiy!! Hiiiiyiiii! Stay away, stay away from me monsteeeeeeeeeeer!!!"
Kyuubi ran into the main shrine while screaming loudly.
Who you calling a monster! Coming from you!
"M, mirror! As long as I have this mirror!"
She took the mirror and ran toward the bamboo forest.
I won't let you! She's gonna start another massacre somewhere if she got away here!
"Hold it right there!!"
"Don't you dare run dangiiiit!!"
"Fuhoho, too slow!!"
I took stones from Item Screen, coated them with mana and threw at her.
Kira-san shot out a barrage of flaming bullets from his futuristic looking gun too but they all got stopped by her fans and tails.
Meanwhile, I caught sight of a magic circle shining blue in the direction Kyuubi is fleeing to.
...Menu-san, could that be.
<<Analysis complete. It is a teleportation magic circle. It can only be used exclusively by 'Kyuubi no Kitsune'.>>
Oh crap, we can't catch up to her from this distance!
Will I make it!? Buff my Attributes sky high with energy! Mana Flight--
"'Saint Laser'!"
"Hya, guha...!!?"
A ray of white light emerged and sliced the Kyuubi in two as I heard someone shouting behind me.
What, was that? Who, did it...!?
A figure took the mirror from Kyuubi's body before it vanished from his hand.
That...?
"Geezer...?"
"O, oy oy, you could've used that move sooner if you had it, gramps..."
"...I'm sorry."
Did Spada kill Kyuubi with an Offensive Spell?
Rather, where did that mirror disappear to?
"Sorry, I'm sorry..."
"N, no, you don't have to fret over it. That was a splendid timing to use if you were saving the move for the right time, you did beat Kyuubi too. Really, don't worry about it."
"...Geezer, you're..."
Kira-san reassured the apologetic-looking Spada while I couldn't drop wariness.
How could a human with Swordsman line of Job use Offensive Magic?
Is it a Gift Skill? Or maybe he's got an equipment that grants him Offensive Magic Skill? I mean I guess this question can be explained.
But then, how did he make that mirror disappear from his palm?
<<....The hand mirror was stored away into 'Item Screen'. In addition, that hand mirror is an Aberrant Object with the ability to collect life force and mana from surrounding dead bodies and allow its user to reincarnate into a denizen of their world.>>
Are you saying, this man, this, geezer is...!?
<<Demon King in his previous life, a hero of the past.>>
