Hero's Mother After – Chapter 111 Serena Vs. Arks, Part Three, Back
"Serena! It's sad to die."
Right in front of me is Grandpa Bauer, the underworld dragon.
"Did I die?"
"Well, you were clearly losing. Your neck was torn off, and it was a pitiful sight! Even when Arks was Mammon before, the guy with the 'Wings of Light' couldn't defeat him. Well, it's impossible."
"Now is not the time to be dead. I will continue."
"Wait, wait! If you go back now, you'll just end up getting killed again. Since you're in the underworld, you should train and then come back. In the underworld, even time is not a constraint."
That's the advice Grandpa Bauer gave me.
'But what should I do?'
If I think about it carefully, there are many deceased individuals here.
Since Zect-oniichan's technique failed, I probably can't rely on Zect-oniichan.
Upon considering it, Zect-oniichan seemed to mention losing to Mammon.
If so, it's impossible.
While I was exploring the underworld, I wanted to find someone who could fight against Arcs.
During my search, I encountered a strange person.
I wonder if they are an insect?
They were doing something fascinating while showing affection towards their partner.
They had transformed into a human-sized insect.
"Wow, their ability is always astonishing!"
"It's not me who is astonishing! It's the insects! If they are the same size, there is no creature that can defeat them!"
"Sail, you really love insects, don't you?"
"Yeah, but my favorite is still Julia..."
"Yeah, I know that."
Maybe it's true.
Insects really are incredible.
And giant insects.
If they were the same size as humans, they might be able to defeat Arks.
"Sail."
"Julia."
As they gazed at each other, I called out to them.
"Um..."
""What!?""
I asked them to teach me that technique...
"That's impossible! The one who gave me this ability is a divine insect goddess called Shinchuu-sama!"
"Isn't it Mommy Ishtas?"
"I don't know her, but maybe I'm not from the same world as you."
"Oh, I see. Can you show me a little, then? I'll try to imitate it with my abilities."
"If it's just that, then it's fine. But it's difficult to imitate."
"I feel the same way."
But for me, who finally found a clue, there was nothing else to rely on.
"Okay? This is a strong mantis axe!"
"Wow, that's amazing."
"Now, this is a bee."
"Incredible."
Sail-san showed me a technique that combined the power of many insects.
This might work.
After about six months of training, I succeeded in transforming my own body with the power of creation, not relying on the insects.
"There's nothing else I can teach you."
With Sail-san's approval, I returned to the present moment.
From here on.
I can start again from here.
"Arcs! It's a fight! Mantis Axe!"
I changed my arms to look like a praying mantis.
Instead of improving myself, I altered my own body.
Originally, I had the body of a dragon.
Instead of turning into a human, I made my dragon body smaller and stronger, using the power of a praying mantis.
Here it is...
Slash!
"What? Trying to hurt me!"
"I might be able to satisfy you a bit."
"You, what did you do? You're completely different from before!"
"Well then, it's my turn now... I'll cut your body into pieces... There, there, there!"
This doesn't work, huh?
I can cut the surface of the body, but not the flesh...
"Hahaha, still, I can't be cut with something like that."
"This can't reach... but it's not over yet! Keep cutting, keep cutting... Haaa Haaa, Haaa Haaa."
Cutting, cutting, keep cutting.
"Wahaha, I can't be cut with something like that, can't be cut, can't be cut, can't be cut, can't be cut!"
This still can't reach... in that case...
"Wasp Sword!"
This time, I changed my arm into a sword that looks like a wasp's stinger.
"What's up with that arm?"
"If I can't use a scythe, then a sword... that's all I thought!"
"Hahahaha! Changing it into a sword is pointless! Muda, muda, muda... Ughhh!"
The design of this arm's sword is based on the poisonous sting of a fierce hornet in this world.
Of course, it is toxic.
And, of course, it's poisonous.
"At last, you're starting to feel the pain... From now on."
"You moved like a completely different person! I'm sorry for underestimating you! I recognize you as a warrior... I will kill you for real!"
"Huh...?"
Arks raised his fist high and then simply let it fall.
Splat!
Just like that, my head was crushed.
"Gyaaaahhhh..."
An intense pain surged through me, and I passed out.
"This is the end... I may not be able to match your father, but I had a great time. Goodbye."
"..."
No, it's not over yet, it can't end yet.
"Serena! It's a shame to die like this."
Once again, Grandpa Bauer stands before me.
"Did I die again?"
"Using the power of insects to fight is good, but it's still not enough! Even Ceres struggled against this opponent. Do your best as if borrowing strength from your heart! It's a joyful thing for a dragon to be able to fight against a strong enemy."
"Yeah, I understand."
I died once, and it's really annoying.
Losing is annoying.
I don't want to lose.
I really don't want to lose.
I want to become stronger.
I don't know why, but I don't want to lose.
"Hey! It's been a while!"
"Zect-oniichan!?"
"What's the matter, Serena? You look like you're going to cry."
I explained the situation to Zect-oniichan.
"I see, Mammon, no, Arks, huh!? We've been losing to that guy all the time! I've developed a technique while living in the underworld out of boredom! It surpasses the Light Wings... Shall we give it a try?"
"Yeah..."
"Listen, Serena, this is the ultimate form of the Light Wings. It's called Wings of Light! Cross!"
Incredible, a bird made of light attacks after a certain amount of time.
"Amazing..."
"Right? The Wings of Light cause an injury, and then another set of Wings of Light attacks after a certain amount of time. I think I might be the only Hero who can do this. With this, you might be able to defeat Mammon too."
"Thank you, Zect-oniichan."
After practicing for a month, I learned how to use the Wings of Light Cross.
"You have learned everything I can teach you! Go, Serena! Defeat Arks!"
"Yeah."
I went back to the battlefield once again.
Arks turned his back to me.
"Special move! Wings of Light! Cross!"
Holding a sword with both hands, I unleashed two wings of light.
Booommmm~
"What, you... Your face has changed again."
"Arks, this is where the real battle begins."
Once again, I challenged Arks to a fight.
