God Breaker

"My spells belong to the Amakusa Church. That's a Japanese Christianity sect
that got persecuted during the Edo period and created out of the necessity to
maintain our belief."

In that cruel era, when merely holding a cross or a statue of the Virgin Mary
resulted in painful executions, the believers could only use the wooden plates
Shintoism and Buddhism to use as cover, and ended up mixing with other
religions until they couldn't even tell which parts were Shintoism's, which parts
were Buddhism's, and which parts were Christianity's. Thus, they ended up
creating a new religion.

The multi-religious aspects Christian system, the Amakusa.

In other words, since Christian spells couldn't beat an angel, instead of using
Christian spells, she should use Buddhism or Shintoism spells or any spells from
religions that didn't have any angels to attack the angel.

If Christian spells wouldn't work, she'd use Buddhist spells.

If Buddhist spells wouldn't work, she'd use Shinto spells.

If Shinto spells wouldn't work, she'd use Christian spells.

The Amakusa could use other sorts of spells to make up for the religions'
weaknesses. So the fact that the Christians couldn't beat angels didn't exist for
Kanzaki.

Power of God looked frozen. Three water wings came swinging over the left and
right.

But the water wings were still easily sliced by Kanzaki's nodachi flash.

"And Japan's Shintoism is one that has many gods. It has the belief that all things
on earth have a divine attachment of many gods to it; any tool that doesn't have
any value will become a part of God's will after a long time. There are many
gods that are created by human means, like the dog gods, monkey gods and
serpent gods that protect the house. Perhaps among all the religions, Shintoism
has the most gods."

Kanzaki deliberately stroked the Shichiten Shichitou.

"Thus, it may be hard for an angel with only one god to imagine. Shintoism has
many gods, and there are even interaction spells between humans and gods,
human spells that are meant to take on Christian spells. In many Japanese
folklore, there's a lot of stories about using an ordinary nodachi to kill an evil
god who lost its mind or request for a girl as a sacrifice. Shintoism has a taboo—
one mustn't harm gods. Think about it, why is there such a rule?"

Kanzaki Kaori said that casually.

She was declaring to the angel that this wouldn't be a one-sided battle.

"..."

Power of God stared at the enemy silently. Absorbing new seawater, the sliced
water wings were restored to their old shape and size.

But for Kanzaki, she didn't need any preparations. She just needed to use her
fingers to lightly stroke the hilt of the nodachi at her waist. Using the unique
breathing to refine the magic energy within her, she could turn herself into the
Breaker of God.

Silence.

After a tenth of a second of silence that an ordinary human couldn't feel.

The Power of God and the Breaker of God started their duel with their lives on
their line.

BOOM! A roar could be heard.

The archangel sent a fifty-meter-long water wing sliding down from above, and
it was sliced in half by Kanzaki, who was 10m in front of it.
But the Power of God didn't mind. No matter how many water wings were cut, it
could repair them. This time, the water wing swung over from the left, trying to
use the time Kanzaki was undefended while she was sheathing her nodachi.

After Kanzaki sliced this attack, the next attack from the right was aimed at
Kanzaki's back.

The Power of God and Kanzaki were about ten meters away from each other.

The angel seemed like it wanted to maintain that distance and continued to
attack Kanzaki with the water wings to prevent Kanzaki from getting close.
Kanzaki spun her body and turned her head around, slicing the water wing
behind her with one slash. Seeing this, three water wings of the messenger of
God attacked from the air, each with a slight time interval between them.
Even though there was a time interval, the difference was measured by a
hundredth of a second. An ordinary person couldn't really sense that somewhat
godlike speed. A human needed 0.18 seconds to process the command from the
brain to the fingers, but Kanzaki in the Breaker of God mode could enter
superhuman territory for a fixed duration, thus such logic didn't apply to her. Her
blood vessels, muscles, nerves, organs and bones had obtained the God Breaker
ability under the spell.
