Danmachi: Westward Cloud [Complete]

[Vol.4] Quest 343- The Raid, Ruler Of The Seas- Part 2, Lull

The ship, Hringhorni, sailed around the whirlpool.

Whoosh~!!!

Whoosh~!!!

Whoosh~!!!

Lance and Leon slowly chip away at the Leviathan.

Clang!!!

Whoosh!!!

Shiing!!!

Slash!!!

Clang!!!

It does little to bother the Leviathan. Its gaze and target were and will always be Cirrus.

"Fire!!!" Shouted Poseidon.

Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!!

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKKKKKKKKKKKKKSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!" It roared in pain and frustration.

The Leviathan wanted to go after Cirrus, but Lance, Leon, and the Hringhorni were impeding its pursuit, especially Ai up on top of the tower. The Leviathan could feel her sharp glare.

It had enough of this.

Bwoosh!!!

Its flaming third eye grows larger before spreading across the entire body and beginning to reform the Leviathan.

It saw the Hringhorni and lifted its arsenal.

Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik-Chik

Its scales rose to reveal its cylindrical, organic weapons form.

"Oh, shit." Everyone thought.

"Everyone get down!!!!!!" Shouted Baldr on the speakers.

They saw a black glow from the cannons and then fired.

Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh-Psh

It fired off black bullets of water.

Lance and Leon ducked into the water.

Splash!!

Splash!!

Cirrus donned his base armor to both cover and heal himself.

Thud!!! Thud!!! Thud!!! Thud!!! Thud!!! Thud!!! Thud!!! Thud!!! Thud!!! Thud!!! Thud!!! Thud!!! Thud!!! Thud!!! Thud!!! Thud!!! Thud!!! Thud!!! Thud!!! Thud!!! Thud!!! Thud!!! Thud!!! Thud!!! Thud!!! Thud!!! Thud!!!

The ship, however, was riddled with water bullets.

Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik-Plik

Its bullets go through the exterior of the ship and some buildings. The tower was not damaged at all; its material was far more durable.

Inside the tower.

"Sir, we have reports of injuries!" shouted one student.

"Take them to the infirmary!! Lance, Leon, and Cirrus!! You need to kill it before it fires off something even more deadly!! Poseidon ordered. "Ai! You mind doing something!!"

"Cirrus, turn the ship around," Ai said.

"Around!? Why in the world would you want that!?"

"Ah, you want to impale the Leviathan with the Breiðablik huh?" Cirrus said getting what she said.

"Do it if it kills the Leviathan quicker!" Baldr shouted.

"Lance, Leon, make a wound so we can fully exploit it," Ai said. "Then I will finish it off."

"On it! Leon, do not fall behind!" Lance shouted.

"Says the man who was just complaining about his back!" Leon replied.

Ai could see the two of them moving quickly.

Cirrus ran into School District where he could see several student and staff injuries.

"All of you head to the center of the ship!!" Cirrus shouted. "I can heal you all there!!"

They all listened to him and rushed to the center, as that was where Cirrus needed to go to fully rotate the ship.

"Huff!! Huff!! Huff!!" Each breath was painful. The steps he took felt as if his feet had fractures.

Cirrus pushed through the pain and arrived at the center of the ship, at the base of the central tower.

"Gather up!!" Cirrus shouted.

"Dad!!" Haku shouted, with Retsu and Musashi following behind him. "Something is spreading in Mairu!"

He looked to see the concern on his face.

"Ugh!!" She gritted her teeth in pain.

Looking at Mairu, he could see what he assumed to be purple poison crawling up her arm. He looked at the others, and they also showed the same purple.

"Get in the center!! We need to deal with this quickly!!"

They did get in with everyone, as Haku carried Mairu.

With all of them gathered Cirrus held his hand out.

"(Theïká Panoplía.)!!!"

His magic circle formed under the students as a large, beautiful hooded cloak with a rainbow pearlescence wrapped them all into a ball.

Soon enough, they all quickly recovered. The injuries they sustained were gone as the armor faded.

"Guh!" The amount he needed to heal them, along with the corrupted flame that was plaguing him, was sapping him faster and faster. He took out several Full Restores and chugged them one after the other. "AHHH~~!!!" he bellowed.

"Dad, are you gonna go and fight that!" Haku shouted.

He could see all the students matching his son’s expression.

"I am, now watch. Your mother is about to move. (SING)!!!!! Slam!!"

He slammed his hand into the ground, and his magic circle formed again, but far larger.

"HRRRR!!!"

Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!! Crackle!!!

Electricity runs through the streets and throughout the ship.

Creak~

"HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!" Cirrus moved his hand, and the ship slowly began to move.

Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~ Creak~

"No way!!" shouted a student.

"The ship must weigh at least hundreds of tons!!" shouted a staff member.

Burst!!

They could see one of Cirrus’ veins burst.

"God dammit!!!! HAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!" Cirrus kept pushing and pushing.

More and more veins appeared on Cirrus’ arms as electricity flickered around him.

He noticed his body had grown fragile.

Spurt!! Spurt!! Spurt!!

Spurt!! Spurt!!

Spurt!! Spurt!!

More veins burst as he moved the ship 180 degrees.

"Your good Cirrus!" Ai said.

"(Theïká Panoplía.)!" His armor quickly covered him, healing his injuries immediately. "Haa!!" Cirrus breathes a sigh of relief as the armor fades. "You better fucking kill that bastard, Lance, and Leon. You guys ready?"

"We need a second! The Levithan is a—"

"Lord Poseidon, Lord Baldr, full steam ahead," Ai said, interrupting Leon. "Cirrus will go on and finish taking the Corrupt Flame."

"Leon, Lance, I will expand that cut you guys made." Cirrus walks towards the Breiðablik with heavy steps.

"Understood! We will keep on it until you arrive," Lance said.

"Fuu~" Cirrus lets out another breath.

"Dad!!" Haku came up to him. "Are you okay? You just burst into blood!"

Cirrus could see the concerned look on his face.

"I am fine." Cirrus pats his head. "Just watch and see." He holds out his hand. "(Vesta)."

Bwoosh!!!

His divine weapon appeared in his hand.

"(Wake up, Nox)." It dyed him white, along with White Night.

"Ooh~" The student and staff look at the divine-like being before them.

Swish~

He swings White Night as it grows into a spear.

"I’ll be back." Cirrus puts his hand to his face. "(Theïká Panoplía: Ceryneian.), (Sing)." His Ceryneian armor wrapped around him quickly, as did the electricity. "(Vesta, Extermino.)!!"

Bwoooosh!!!

Cirrus was covered in a blue geometric flame.

Bwoo-ackle!!! Bwoo-ackle!!! Bwoo-ackle!!! Bwoo-ackle!!! Bwoo-ackle!!!

Cirrus took a step and rushed forward.

Thud!!! Thud!!!

Thud!!! Thud!!!

Thud!!! Thud!!!

He left flaming imprints on the ground with a trail of fading, cindering sparks.

Thud!!! Thud!!!

Thud!!! Thud!!!

Cirrus makes it to the Breiðablik and leaps into the air.

Whoosh~!

Whoosh~!

Many could see the azure flame in the sky. His armor fades away.

"(Theïká Panoplía: Chimera.)!!!"

His armor covers him, and blazing chains fire off toward the Leviathan.

"Move!!!!!" Cirrus shouted as some chains wrapped around the handle of White Night. He spots where Lance and Leon were and the cut they made as he throws it towards them.

They move out of the way as it finds its mark on the Leviathan’s underbelly.

Thud!!!!!

He throws it in with deadly accuracy.

Rattle!!!!

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKKKKKKKKKKKKKKSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

The Leviathan roared again, and Cirrus's chains wrapped around the Leviathan.

"Grab and hold it down!!!" Cirrus shouted, flying up. "Vesta!! Take it all!!!"

Lance and Leon grabbed the chains and pulled the Levithan as if it were a raging bull.

"Graaaaaah!!!!" They shouted.

 Vesta quickly began to take in all the corrupted flames.

"Grrrrrrr!!!!!!!!" Cirrus’ body strains and his armor heals him just barely enough to not burst, but the more Vesta took in the Corrupted Flame, the more it weakened Cirrus.

‘Done!!’ Vesta told him.

Just as she said that the Leviathan grew lethargic and sapped of stamina.

"aaaaaaakkkkkkkssssss~~," It roared weakly.

It was so weak; in fact, Lance and Leon held it in place.

"Now!!!!" Lance called it in.

Whoooooooooosh!!!

Whooooosh!!!

The ship came cutting through the current of the whirlpool with all of its propulsion devices fired off.

SHUNK!!!!!

THUD-RUMBLE!!!!!!!!!!!

The impalement rocked the entire ship.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKKKKKKKKKKKKSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!" It screams out in pain.

Ai finally makes her move.

"(Rage. Eighty-thousand men cannot quench my thirst. 

Two arrows pierce my ribs and throat, one swing of the blade.

Today I will live, tomorrow I will not lose my life.

I shall save myself, lament. Tamamo no Mae.) [Yonbi Kōgō]!!!!!!!"

She quickly chanted her magic, and she was quickly dyed red.

"AHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! (When the bell tolls 108 times, gather the eight serpents.

No offerings of sacrifice to the earth, wind, fire, water, thunder, poison, light, and darkness.

I offer you steel and the clear sky.)!!!!"

The wind gathered into her sheath, and she kicked off.

BOOOOOM!!!

She landed on one of the buildings and kicked off again.

BOOOOOOOM!!!!

She jumped even more in speed and strength.

Many could see this red streak. This comet burst through the ship and was high above the Leviathan.

"[Murakumogiri]!!!!!!!"

She unsheathed her blade, and she spun down at the Leviathan like a Beyblade, at ludicrous speeds, slicing through its spear-like nose and through its teeth, into its mouth, and then into its throat.

SWISH-WHOOSH!!!! SWISH-WHOOSH!!!! SWISH-WHOOSH!!!! SWISH-WHOOSH!!!! SWISH-WHOOSH!!!! SWISH-WHOOSH!!!! SWISH-WHOOSH!!!! SWISH-WHOOSH!!!! SWISH-WHOOSH!!!! SWISH-WHOOSH!!!! SWISH-WHOOSH!!!! SWISH-WHOOSH!!!! SWISH-WHOOSH!!!! SWISH-WHOOSH!!!! SWISH-WHOOSH!!!! SWISH-WHOOSH!!!! SWISH-WHOOSH!!!! SWISH-WHOOSH!!!! SWISH-WHOOSH!!!! SWISH-WHOOSH!!!! SWISH-WHOOSH!!!! SWISH-WHOOSH!!!! SWISH-WHOOSH!!!! SWISH-WHOOSH!!!! SWISH-WHOOSH!!!! SWISH-WHOOSH!!!! SWISH-WHOOSH!!!! SWISH-WHOOSH!!!! SWISH-WHOOSH!!!!

Then she burst through the underbelly, and Akira slid across the bridge drenched in blood.

Clink!

Ai sheathed her blade, and her transformation wore off.

"Fuu~" Ai breathed an air of relief as she walked away.

Spurt!!!! Spurt!!!! Spurt!!!! Spurt!!!! Spurt!!!! Spurt!!!! Spurt!!!! Spurt!!!! Spurt!!!! Spurt!!!! Spurt!!!! Spurt!!!! Spurt!!!! Spurt!!!! Spurt!!!! Spurt!!!! Spurt!!!! Spurt!!!!

The Leviathan burst into chunks, with its head landing right behind Ai.

Thud!!!

"Oy!" Ai pressed her hand on the communicator. "It’s done! Let’s take our prize and go back to Fuyuhama!"

"Roger that!" Poseidon said.

A few seconds later.

"The Leviathan has been slain!! Those with able bodies go to the Breiðablik and dismantle it!"

Cirrus returned to the ship and leaned against a wall.

"Huff!!! Huff!!! Huff!!! Huff!!! Huff!!! Huff!!! Huff!!!" He was struggling to breathe. He took long, deep breaths, but his body wanted to die.

"Master here!" Hecton popped a handout and injected Cirrus into his neck.

"Gah! Gr!!" Cirrus tightened his fists. "I-is that the High Antidote Pen?" Cirrus rubbed his neck.

"It was. You made it for emergencies, and this was one."

"I have more," Fafnir said, popping her head. "Master, the world is infested with these flaming creatures. Me and Hecton sealed them up, but they are slowly growing."

"Hmm…" Cirrus began to walk to his room. "We need to talk about this in private. Vesta."

Vesta appeared right next to him.

"Cirrus. I am looking at your current health status at the moment."

"From what you have seen, how bad is it?"

"… It’s not good, Cirrus." She said it lowly.

"Haa… And just when I impressed my son,"

The step Cirrus took. He gritted his teeth under his fake smile.

Raid Results:

• Injured/Poisoned: 768
• KIA: N/A
• The Leviathan subjected.
