Chereads / Reborn As A Valkyria / Chapter 36 - The Power of Yusa

Chapter 36 - The Power of Yusa

Yusa looked at Seihachi and everyone on the battlefield looked afraid of Yusa due to her powerful Demigod Aura and her sharp glare that can pierce souls. For years she's kept in all of her anger and now she can unleash it.

Seihachi smirked and laughed then looked at Yusa. "You have awakened the power within you...I am surprised. At the fact you had it within you to do it, but I too have tricks up my sleeve!" He bellowed and his Fell Energy powerfully and his body began to be surrounded by Fire, Lightning, and Ice.

Yusa glared and tapped the handle of her Oracle Lance on the ground then a lance constructed of light pierced through Seihachi's body. "Smiting Lance."

The light lance shined then a light explosion happened, sending Seihachi flying in the air. She flew after him and was above him then she slashed downward with a powerful strike and Seihachi groaned as he was sent crashing to the ground. She pointed her Cataclysm Lance at him.

"Die." She said then multiple beams of dark energy was released from the lance, homing straight towards him.

His eyes widened as he was struck with each beam. He coughed blood and his irises disappeared for a second.

The rest of the Judgement Order was frozen in fear. Tengu watched from a window and looked amazed.

"Yusa is now once again the most feared woman like she was years ago facing off against the early days of Judgement. Her strength is terrifying..." Ochiyo said.

Usagi and Arei watched as their Headmaster was absolutely destroying Seihachi with ease. Hazuki watched from the building then noticed Hikaru walking up next to him.

"She's obtained the power I seeked for the longest time. Look at my dear husband...he's outmatched..but I can't blame him. He's against a Demigod...but with my new Godslayer Weapon...I should be able to take Yusa down with ease." Hikaru said.

Hazuki crossed his arms. "I doubt it...but I would highly recommend not going out there. Even Silent Fox is avoiding the battlefield for right now."

"Don't worry about me dear. My Godslayer: Astroth is enough to destroy any Ruler and Overlord." Hikaru said then summoned her longsword.

She jumped off the building and her cloak fluttered in the wind then she landed on the ground and launched herself at Yusa. Yusa sensed her and blocked the attack.

"You..." Yusa said then pushed Hikaru back.

Hikaru skidded backwards then chuckled lightly and looked at Seihachi who was already healing up. She looked at Yusa then took off her cloak and got in her stance. "I developed a style of battle called the Iaitsu Style. Even as a Ruler...you stand zero chance against attacks that can cut through space itself as well. Once I kill you, your energy will belong to me!"

Yusa didn't respond. She just got in her stance and glared at Hikaru. She lowered her weapon and smirked then closed her eyes.

"You're just gonna stand still..? Don't fucking mock me!" Hikaru yelled and launched herself towards Yusa. She yelled and shoved her longblade through Yusa's chest. She smirked then looked surprised.

Yusa opened her eyes to look at Hikaru. "Being the Ruler of Death...even when struck by a Godslayer Weapon...I can not die due to the ability to defy Death itself. Not only that, but because of the weapon I wield...I can also manipulate life, albeit only the basic abilities of Life Manipulation such as Resurrection and Life Reduction...You already lost before the battle even began." Yusa said then slid backwards and fused her lances together then took Hikaru's sword out of her body.

Hikaru glared and summoned her sword back to her hands. She got in her stance. "There's no way I'm losing this battle! You're about to experience the power of Iaitsu Style!"

Hikaru began to use bursts of speed to move around Yusa faster than she could see. She began slashing at Yusa as she moved around Yusa in all directions. She appeared back at her original spot then sheathed her sword. She tapped her pinkie on the handle of her sword then a flurry of slashes struck Yusa.

Yusa couldn't react to her movements nor the spatial slashes. She took the attacks and stomped her foot on the ground. "Now that you've got your attacks out the way...it is my turn."

"There's no way...she really took all of those hits..?!" Hikaru said in shock then took a step back.

Yusa launched herself at Hikaru then summoned multiple light spears behind herself. Hikaru shook her head then used a burst of speed to move behind Yusa then sheathed her blade then tapped the handle of her sword.

"There." Yusa said then blocked the delayed slash.

Hikaru looked surprised at the fact that Yusa blocked the attack. "What..? She blocked the attack..?"

"Iaijutsu is a powerful technique. The ability to perform slashes faster than your opponent can see is an amazing technique...Speed seems to play a part in the attacks as well as a three second delay in between attacks. Yours in specific takes three seconds because you can't automatically...you step up afterimages to do the attacks for you once you've already done the set up. I've got your Style down now.." Yusa smirked.

"There's no way...you learned my ability that fast.." Hikaru said.

"The old Yusa is back." Sayoko smiled. "Look the Judgement members are retreating."

"This is the Yusa I love." Yonaka smiled and watched Yusa. "The Yusa who struck fear into the hearts of her adversaries with her ability to learn any technique and attack just by seeing it."

"Let's test out...this new technique!" Yusa said then used a burst of speed to move around Hikaru faster than she could see.

"I'm not allowing you to use my own ability against me!" Hikaru yelled and used a burst of speed to move around quickly as well.

They began clashing at high speeds then they stopped and Hikaru sheathed her sword and tapped the handle on her sword. Yusa began to dodge the slashes then vanished and reappeared behind Hikaru. She twirled her lance then a slash of Death Energy hit Hikaru. Hikaru groaned then was hit by the light spears and an explosion happened.

Yusa turned around then pointed her lance at Hikaru once the spoke cleared. "Cataclysmic Spear." Yusa said then released a thin beam of darkness at Hikaru then looked a bit surprised when the beam was deflected off a barrier.

Silent Fox landed on top of the barrier and adjusted her mask, looking at Yusa. Yusa looked back at Silent Fox then heard Hikaru groaning lightly.

"This...wound.." Hikaru coughed blood and noticed no matter how much she tried to heal herself, the wound wasn't healing.

"Mother..!" Hazuki jumped off the roof and landed on the ground then hurried over to the barrier.

Hikaru fell to her knees and her heart thumped hard. She fell on her side then she looked at Hazuki. "My...child. Run..."

Silent Fox looked at Hikaru then got off the barrier and made the barrier disappear. "Hikaru.."

Hikaru chuckled and coughed blood then panted. "The Ruler of Death...She's stronger than I anticipated. I should've listen-"

Hazuki and Silent Fox looked surprised when Yusa mercilessly sent a beam through Hikaru's heart and looked at Yusa.

Yusa pointed her lance at Silent Fox. "You're next...Shina Ashikaga."

Silent Fox grabbed Hazuki's arm and used Ieyasu's Emblem to warp away. Yusa lowered her lance then closed her eyes. She exhaled and felt incredibly tired. She reverted to her normal form then fell to her knees.

"Yusa!" Naora and Yonaka ran towards her.

Yusa looked at them and coughed a bit of blood then covered her mouth. "That power put so much strain on my body...If I hadn't reverted back..."

"You defended Yahoma. Our city is safe...You've done enough. Let's get you back to HQ so you can rest." Naora smiled.

Yusa smiled and allowed Yonaka and Naora to help her up. All three retreated back to HQ.

"Orishi! There's news! Look at this!" Lianne ran to her with her phone in hand. She stopped beside Orishi and unlocked her phone then held the screen in front of her.

Orishi looked at Lianne and looked at her phone screen. "Eh? You want me to look at a picture of a dildo? Does Ryan know you are looking at this?"

Lianne looked at her phone screen and blushed. "Eek!! No! No! Nevermind that! Look!" She switched to the recent news about what happened in Yahoma.

Orishi read the headline then her eyes widened. "Wait...Yusa is a Ruler now..?"

The news reached my ears then Annie and I stopped training to look at Orishi and Lianne.

"Mom is a Ruler now?" I asked.

"Apparently so...Wait...if she's in Yahoma that means...No one is defending St. Fraskia!" Orishi said then her heart dropped in an instant. "Silent Fox knows where the academy is as well...Oh no this is bad. With our academy unattended..."

"Don't worry. Saito will handle it." Saito said then closed her eyes, hacking into the systems of St. Fraskia. She activated the Defense Systems around the entire campus. "Saito has activated the Defense Systems and now our academy is secure."

"Hopefully..." Orishi sighed, slightly relieved.

Lianne and Orishi looked at the news once again, surprised at the fact that she solo'd Seihachi and killed Hikaru with ease. They noticed Yusa had returned to her old self and we're happy, yet frightened by her now.
