Fate DxD

Chapter 67

"Hmm, I'll show you what it's like to pick on Kuoh!" Kodama unleashes her energy, ready for battle.

Lightning bolts appear all around her, before striking the two Eighth members, who quickly dodge.

(Strange, I have the impression that the air is much more static than usual, it smells like a thunderstorm for sure.) She thinks, creating a fireball in her hand.

Stefan, fires his concrete ball, projecting out like a shotgun blast. Having anticipated the blow, she pulls a huge root out of the ground, protecting herself and Usui.

"The power of wood? How is that possible?" Stefan is surprised.

The projectile shatters the root, but fails to penetrate it, being far too thick.

"Himegami-senpai! You're amazing!" Usui exclaims.

"Don't just stand there you moron! Go hide!" She said, throwing her fireball.

"You're going to have to do more, kid!" Keiichi punches the air, instantly dispersing the fireball.

He leapt over the huge root, surprising the young blonde. Seeing this, Usui pats Kodama's arm and throws a stone into the air. The exchange takes place directly, reversing the place of the two he touched. Kodama is surprised at first, but immediately recovers, firing a bolt of lightning at Keiichi, who had no time to see it coming and is struck by the bolt, which immobilizes him.

"Warn me next time!" Kodama lands on the root.

"Sorry!" Usui runs and disappears behind a building.

"Haaa... this guy I swear, I never know what he's thinking... Come to think of it, I do know, and it disgusts me..." Kodama makes a nasty face, knowing full well the images in Usui's head.

"Hey! Don't forget me!!"

Stefan, sucking up the concrete again, which tangles in front of his hand, fires, throwing the whole thing in her direction. She throws herself to the side and narrowly dodges, tearing off the top of the root. He continues to suck in concrete, shooting in her direction. Kodama runs to dodge the continuous shots, she conjures up a fireball and throws it at him, who jumps to the side to dodge.

Suddenly, Keiichi appears out of nowhere beside Kodama, wind swirling around his arm like a tornado. He throws his arm forward, but Kodama disappears in a flash, only to appear further away.

"Thank you..." She's thanking someone. "But I didn't think it was going to be this hard, they're both strong..."

"Keiichi-san, what do we do with the other kid? He must be hanging around somewhere." Stefan asks.

"We'll deal with it afterwards, given his power, he won't try anything else, which means the kid's on her own, we'll have a lot of fun." Keiichi smiles.

"You pervert!" Kodama exclaims, sending roots shooting straight out in their direction.

In a strong gust of wind, both are propelled into the air. Stefan fires another concrete cannon. Kodama grows a root in the shape of a arch above her to protect herself.

"Tss, it's fucking frustrating, I'm not touching anything!" Stefan raged, destroying the concrete even more violently, drawing the pieces towards his hand.

"Ah!" Keiichi exclaims, throwing two blades of wind from his hands, cutting the root just above her. Two hand-shaped antlers emerge from the ground and catch it, then hurl it towards them. Keiichi charges wind around his arm and strikes, smashing the huge root to pieces.
