The plan of these girls was very good, but it was destined to fail. As soon as they opened the coffin and Mikoto destroyed it, they realized it was completely empty.
No corpse or anything horrifying, there was nothing...
"…!!"
Suddenly, the trio couldn't help but take a step back. Then something incredible happened. With wide-open eyes, they saw the floor and walls begin to transform into insects, as if they were merely covering something more horrific. Devil marks started to manifest, and darkness slowly enveloped the altar. The sinister aura amplified, and bells began to ring, announcing the arrival of the Demon...
However, what the girls didn't know was that a shadow in the form of insects rose from the ground. This shadow took the shape of a 2.5-meter-tall humanoid monster. This monster had a triangular metal mask and was very muscular.
Like the night, this monster silently lifted an enormous, blood-stained, rusty Nodachi and, without hesitation, struck down...
"Onee-sama!"
Kuroko suddenly felt a strong bloodlust, turned her head, and the only thing she saw was the Nodachi falling. She desperately tried to teleport, but it was too late...
*Bam*
"?!"
Mikoto and Kongou couldn't even react when the trio was struck by the enormous Nodachi and sent flying by the impact...
"What... What was that? Huh?!"
Shaking her head, Mikoto was very surprised. She must have known that with her electromagnetic barrier detecting electric pulses around her, it was impossible for someone to surprise her, let alone hit her. However, something had passed through her barrier, and it wasn't small, especially not a monster like that with a triangular head. Seeing it made Mikoto's skin crawl. She stood up and took a step back in fear, but fortunately, someone covered her, so she didn't suffer severe damage...
"Kuroko!"
Mikoto remembered that if it weren't for Kuroko diverting the monster's attack at the last moment, she would be in terrible shape. Now, Mikoto searched for her friend's whereabouts and, upon finding her, ran towards her...
"Ugh!"
Kuroko, on the other hand, vomited blood. Although she tried to avoid the Nodachi, it still struck her, causing a deep cut in her waist. This Yuri girl was lucky; otherwise, the Nodachi would have killed her on the spot.
Her face was pale as paper, and her breathing was irregular...
"Onee...sama..."
Kuroko did her best to stand up, but the wound caused excruciating pain, and she was losing a lot of blood...
"Kuroko! Hold on! You'll be fine!"
Seeing so much blood, Mikoto panicked. She tried to help Kuroko, but she didn't know what to do. She wasn't a doctor and wasn't used to seeing so much blood, even though she had seen her Sisters die; this moment was entirely different...
"Misaka-san, the... monster..."
Suddenly, Kongou's voice brought her back to reality, and she turned her head. The triangular-headed monster dragged its enormous Nodachi and approached. Kongou felt so scared that her body petrified...
"Wait here, Kuroko. I'll handle this."
"Onee-sama..."
Mikoto, on the other hand, let her anger overcome her fear, and electricity around her fluctuated intensely, with Kuroko assisting...
*Biri-biri*
Unable to contain herself, Mikoto attacked. Unfortunately, the electric shock didn't harm the monster; it merely numbed it for a few seconds before it continued dragging its Nodachi...
"Eh?!"
This sent chills down Mikoto's spine. She had not held back in that attack and had used approximately 70% of her strength. Failing to wound this monster left her stunned...
Just as she was about to pull a coin from her pocket to fire her Railgun, the monster lifted its Nodachi again and struck the ground with force. The ground split in half, and as if from the depths of hell, several hands began to emerge from the crevice...
*Ka... Ka... Ka...
The sound of bones cracking was heard, and pale hands like cadavers rose. What seemed to be faceless nun corpses crawled out of the crevice and stood up...
*Ka... Ka... Ka...
The irregular sound of these nuns' bones was eerie as they walked slowly...
"Don't mess with me!"
"Gaaaaaa!"
Mikoto, although surprised, didn't let herself be intimidated, especially when she saw the terrifying faceless nun. Electricity gathered in her arm, and electric shocks attacked the nuns, who, upon feeling this, jumped back quickly. The slow pace from a few minutes ago had disappeared, and they began running and dodging the lightning. Some even climbed the ceiling and moved like cats with incredible acrobatic jumps...
*Biri-biri...
Mikoto increased her power, and although she eliminated some nuns with her lightning, more kept emerging from the crevice...
"Misaka-san!"
Kongou didn't have Mikoto's power and was in a very unfavorable situation. After all, with her 'Wind,' she could only push these faceless nuns away. Her ability was being suppressed by her fear, so she was gradually cornered by these nuns...
"Kongou-san!"
Mikoto wanted to help, but before she could, she felt a horrible premonition. Iron sand gathered around her like armor...
*Bam*
"?!"
By doing so, she managed to save herself from the powerful Nodachi attack. Unfortunately, the triangular-headed monster was very strong. Not only did it pierce through the iron sand, but it also struck Mikoto, sending her flying and further breaking the ground...
*Cough, cough*
Coughing, Mikoto clutched her stomach in pain. That last blow almost cost her her life. If she had been a bit slower, that Nodachi would have cut her in half...
"Onee-sama!! Kyaa!!..."
"Kuroko!"
Even though Mikoto survived, it was different for Kuroko, who was behind her. This Yuri girl teleported the moment the monster brought down its Nodachi. However, what Kuroko didn't know was that when she disappeared and reappeared, the nuns were waiting for her. Under Mikoto's incredulous gaze, the Yuri girl was dragged into the crevice. What scared Kuroko the most was that her teleportation ability didn't activate, and she had no strength to resist. After all, she was injured and could barely move...
Mikoto ran to save her, but the monster didn't allow it. It brought down the Nodachi again, sending bloody shockwaves that Mikoto had to withstand...
"Onee-sama... Run..."
That time was enough for Kuroko to disappear into the crevice, which then closed. But not before Kuroko's voice was heard...
The Yuri girl had been eliminated...
"Ahhhhh!!"
*Biri-biri*
Mikoto couldn't hold back any longer. Electricity illuminated the entire altar, sending electric pulses that affected the whole area. This solved Kongou's problem but also affected her. Mikoto didn't forget to pull a coin from her pocket...
She took advantage of the moment when the monster was numbed and attacked...
"You can't mess with my friends!!"
*Plussss*
With these words, the Railgun was fired, and the monster, still recovering, took the full impact of the electric rail...
*Boom*
There was a huge explosion, and the altar walls cracked. The Railgun pierced through the entire convent, leaving a glowing light around it. It must be known that these walls weren't normal; they were made with the power of limits and were as resistant as reinforced steel bars. But that didn't stop Mikoto's Railgun, a power from an Esper who had reached level 5.1. Just before the dust settled and Mikoto could run to where Kuroko had disappeared, a large shadow emerged from the dust cloud.
"You... you... you..."
Mikoto stammered because she couldn't believe it. The monster walked slowly, and although half of its body was gone from the Railgun, it was regenerating grotesquely with hundreds of worms crawling over its body...
The Railgun wasn't enough to defeat it. This time, Mikoto felt fear. The monster's aura and appearance were terrifying, but more importantly, her powers couldn't harm it...
*Gaaaaaa*
With a roar that seemed to come from the depths of hell, the monster prepared for the next round. At the same time, the ground split, and the terrifying hands of the nuns began to emerge from the depths of hell. Likewise, the large hole the Railgun had left in the walls began to close with hundreds of insects...
