Chapter 192 – Those who aim for God

I wasn’t going to wait until Gemini finished transforming.

[Let’s go!]

[….of course.]

Halo shaped light was illuminating Gemini…. It had finished its transformation.

[Coming in!]

The light wrapped around our body. This is similar to Phalanx bullet’s magic aura. Its function is to drastically reduce enemy damage up to 3 times.

The distance between us and the opponent was pretty far. Even with flight, it’ll still take some time to get to us.

『The prey….is behind us』

[What!?]

Thanks to an inner voice warning me, I was able to react in time when Gemini suddenly appeared behind us…

[Fate-sama!]

That’s no longer in the realm of flight anymore. It’s straight out teleportation.

[Kuu… GUAAAaaaaa]

I managed to defend against it with the black shield. Eris’ defensive buff had probably also made it slightly easier.

[Damn, my footing.]

Even after the flash stopped, the momentum still remained. It sent us straight crashing on the city wall. We only stopped after crashing into several buildings.

[If it weren’t for our status, we would’ve been turned into minced meat.]

[Yes. Thank you… for protecting me.]

[Don’t mention it.]

[More importantly, Gemini’s movement.]

[I believe it was a space leap.]

[Oh that one…]

[In that case… this might be effective against it.]

[Kuh, Eris! Let’s move away from here.]

The petrifying arrow was dispersed before it could reach Gemini. Again… just like what happened to the bloody ptarmigan cross.

[It won’t reach!]

[Twisted again… I don’t like this.]

No attacks work. On the other hand, I’m getting the knack of detecting when and where Gemini will do its space leap thanks to Gluttony skill.

The previous surprise attack would no longer work.

[Fate-sama, watch out.]

To keep our distance with Gemini, we rushed to the building on the right.

[Using the same attack consecutively. Does it have no limit?]

[I did not sense any magic power when I saw it using my magic eye. It is using other power.]

[What do you mean?]

[The future vision that I saw with my magic eye has been distorted.]

[Future vision?]

[My magic eye allows me to see the future. Although only a few seconds in the future at most.]

[It is an emergency. There is no need to worry about me.]

[….that doesn’t change the fact that you used it without my permission. Good grief…. But does that mean Gemini’s power is able to alter the future?]

[It might be future alteration, but at that moment, that moment I sensed a ripple.]

[Tell me more.]

[Our current assumption is that it is probably not in full control over the future. Otherwise we would not be alive right now.]

[I see, so it’s altering the future but in a limited way?]

We had been successfully guarding and avoiding Gemini’s attack so far. Which means, the future alteration does not affect its attack. If it could, we would’ve been turned to dust a long time ago.

[Fate-sama, please shoot another arrow at Gemini once more. I shall observe it thoroughly]

[But more than that…]

[It does not matter. The opponent is also looking for a way to kill us as we speak. Go!]

[…]

The scattered magic arrows were swept away by the wind and danced in the air.

[Eris!?]

She was holding her right eye with one hand. Blood was seeping endlessly from between her fingers. I had to control myself from running toward her.

[Gemini’s ability. I saw it.]
