Kaijin Fighter: So I Have to Make Monsters, So What?-Chapter 1272: KvK, but how?!
[Hey, Logos. Hey, Pathos,] Hurricroak called out as he popped her head into the private chamber of the curators...
[I just came to check in on you—]
<WHAT THE HELL?! WHAT THE CUCK?! WHAT THE FUCK?!>
=I DON'T KNOW! I DON'T KNOW! I DON'T FUCKING KNOW!=
[Huh...]
...only to be greeted by the sight of the two of them flying around the room while in their spiritual ball forms.
Over the last few weeks, acting as the main guards of the Library, Hurricroak and Frosttusk had learned a lot more about the curators of the library. More specifically, they had begun to learn all about the eccentricities and habits of the curators that they attempted to keep out of the usual telepathic channels.
For example, whenever it was just the two of them, Logos and Pathos would be significantly more liberal with their shape shifting abilities to the point that they greatly resembled cartoons more so than dignified spirits of [Logic] and [Passion].
That stated, this was the first time in awhile that they had seen the spirits act so incredibly wild like this.
The first time was when the Maestro found that wandering ruin that Logos's ex was apparently located.
Figuring it was better to rip the band-aid off now instead of waiting, Hurricroak entered the chamber to directly ask a pertinent question.
A question with an answer that she was unprepared to mentally process in the slightest.
[Alright, what got you guys acting so incredibly hyper?]
<=ENEMY KAIJIN!=>
[...pardon, fucking, me?]

...Meanwhile...
[Uh... Ringmaster. Am I sensing things or—]
'Nope, I'm sensing it too. That is an enemy Kaijin or something close to it,' Zhen Liu interjected. 'I thought it was an abomination again like with Grub or that robot rat-spider, or maybe someone with Kaijin blood again, but nope. That is clearly Kaijin aura like Rodenia but...weirder.'
[Weird is an understatement,] Razorstella added. [I can sense their aura from here and in comparison to our own, it's like the difference between honey and artificial sweetener. Both are sweet, but the underlying flavors are vastly different. And I'm pretty sure I prefer honey.]
[Is this that uncanny valley thing you humans complain about? If so,I get it now,] Springerdermain noted as he compared his snake-like form with this body horror bastard.
'Not really the same thing, but either way, I suggest you guys go down there.'
[And do what?] Screamira asked. [Take out the snake for suggesting that there's another Kaijin Lord out there, or hold Nepeherage back so that we can interrogate him?]
'Play it by ear.'
...Speaking of Nepeherage...
After making it clear that she was taking no prisoners and that this pretender's existence was insulting to her own, Nepeherage went on the offensive.
[Volcanic Spear Fist!]
Using aether, Nepeherage propelled herself forward, condensed an explosive mix of [Chaos] and aether into her fist and launched it forward with the intent of blowing out Constrictor's stomach.
While this wasn't the first time Nepeherage had to leverage [Chaos] against another hostile [Chaos] entity, this was the first time she had gone in with the intent to kill.
Unfortunately, Constrictor had already prepared for there to be a blowout.
After all, he was feeling that innate irritation humming in the back of his skull as well.
[Funny that! I was thinking of presenting you to the boss as well. Python Guard!]
A surge of [Chaos] and aether surrounded Constrictor and took on the form of giant snake that coiled around Constrictor in a protective manner.
Layers of manifested scale and sinew acted as a barrier between the giant snake-man and the jade valkyrie.
Surprisingly, though, this turned out to be an even match-up.
[What the fuck?!]
Nepeherage's attack tore into the construct, her burning fist making about halfway through it before detonating and sending both her and Constrictor several steps backwards.
In other words this first exchange ended in a stalemate that neither side enjoyed seeing.
[How the hell did your punch manage to penetrate my defenses? My defensive skills are the best in my divison!]
[Fuck you, that's how,] Nepeherage replied. [But just so you know, I'll make sure you can't block my next move.]
[Then I should go on the offensive. Demonic Anaconda Lash!]
Constrictor whipped one of his arms backwards, transforming it into a giant anaconda that hissed to life before infusing it with aether and [Chaos].
Once the limb was empowered, Constrictor brought it back down like a whip, ripping through the air and causing a horrid sound as it did.
Nepeherage had initially thought to block the attack with her own shield art, but stopped when her instincts and intuition went haywire at the sight of this encroaching snake-whip.
As such, she decided that the best defense was to not get hit in the first place.
Wanting to conserve power for an even bigger blow, Nepeherage used only the barest hint of aether in order to sidestep the attack.
Nepeherage's plan after this was to charge forward with an aether enhanced leap and tackle the bastard outright, possibly ripping off their arm in the process.
HISS!
[FUCK!]
Unfortunately, she had to abort that plan when the snake-whip turned their head around and attempted to catch Nepeherage by surprise with the aim of swallowing them in one strike.
Redirecting the aether in her legs to the soles of her feet, Nepeherage launched herself up into the air...which was exactly what Constrictor wanted.
'Wait a minute...'
Once he saw Nepeherage was in the air, Constrictor proceeded to coil his other arm and pumped it up with even more aether and [Chaos] than his previous attack.
[Boa Cannon!]
Constrictor launched his other arm towards Nepeherage, transforming it into another giant anaconda, but this one moving at a noticeably faster speed than the other.
If Constrictor had faced any other warrior, this trick would've been efficient, brutal and surprisingly effective.
'Wait a minute...I know this trick!'
Nepeherage, however, was someone who had regularly sparred with a Kaijin that fought exactly like this multiple times.
And she knew exactly how to counter this sort of move.
[Blazing Tornado!]
Cloaking her entire body with aether, while focusing most of her [Chaos] in the tips of her toes, Nepherage turned herself into a blazing tornado of flames that spun out of the way from the giant anaconda trying to eat her.
And once she had gotten out of the way, the true nature of this move made itself known.
Using the [Chaos] at the tip of her toes, Nepeherage began to travel down the giant anaconda construct like a top down a slope. Unlike a top on a slope though, Nepeherage was significantly more sticky.
[What the fuck?! Get off! Get off!]
No matter how hard Constrictor shook his snake-arm, the burning tornado that was Nepeherage would not get off due to the [Chaos] on her feet being essentially magnetized to his arm.
He had thought to retract his arm, but threw away the idea when he realized that would only bring Nepeherage closer to striking distance.
As such, he determined that the best course of action was to attack his own arm.
[Python Storm!]
The giant snake arm, that wasn't being actively used as a trail, suddenly began to writhe and squirm before exploding into a whole mess snake-tentacles that tried to bite down and stop Nepeherage's momentum.
Unfortunately, she was too fast and the tornado of flames she was cloaked was hot enough to immediately carbonize the encroaching snake-tendrils.
In other words, Constrictor had no choice but to curse as he realized he was about to take a massive boot to the face.
[Oh you fucking bi—]
[Firebird's Rising Kick!]
Once Nepeherage was close enough, she dismissed the fire tornado and did a flying backflip kick against Constrictor's chin with the anticipation of either kicking his head off his shoulders or at least give them a concussion as they were sent flying.
POW!
"HRK!"
[Oh, gross.]
Instead, much like his arms, Constrictor's head and neck suddenly stretched upwards like a cobra poking their heads out of a wicker basket.
Once he had reached the limit of his stretch, Constrictor turned his head downwards in an attempt to devour Nepeherage one last time.
[Now I got you!]
[No,] Nepeherage retorted. [Now we got you.]
[Huh?]
Constructor was confused by this wording...until he sensed three incredibly dense forces of [Chaos] gunning for his stretched out neck.
[WHAT THE—?!]
[Coil Cannon Palm!]
[Banshee's Wail!]
[Circular Starcutter!]
Springerdermain, Screamira and Razorstella came flying in and unleashed hell against Constrictor's snake-like neck and did a devastating amount of damage.
Heavy bruises, bleeding wounds and necrotic flesh damage, decorated one side of Constrictor's neck and caused the snake-like Kaijin to go into shock.
[And stay down, asshold!]
A small temror rocked the area as Constrictor fell to the ground like, well, like a giant snake.
Once Constrictor was defeated, the Kaijin regrouped together to discuss their next course of action.
Needless to say, it involved good old kidnapping.
[Alright, who brought that silk rope care package from Arachnidame?]
[Me.]
[Excellent.]
