The beast tamer exiled from the hero’s party and the cat eared girl from the strongest race meet




Chapter 434: The first step towards a reversal

(TL:By Rafael,valhallatls.blogspot.com)


"Ahhh, geez! So annoying. Seriously, this is way too annoying!"

Lin was frustrated. She had obtained the ultimate power. She could cast magic without chanting, use multiple spells simultaneously, and even unleash them all at once. On top of that, she could freely manipulate advanced-level magic. There were no enemies strong enough to oppose her. She was an absolute existence—no matter how powerful a creature might be, nothing could stop her. …Or at least, that was how it was supposed to be.

"Hngh!"

"Blood Shoot!" 

"Giga Volt!"

Nina opened a subspace, allowing Rifa and Chiffon to launch attacks through it. Their power wasn’t anything special. By utilizing the subspace, they could strike from unpredictable angles, but their attacks still lacked the strength needed. They couldn't break through Lin’s multiple barriers, nor could they deal any damage. Even so, they didn’t give up. Nina and the others kept attacking relentlessly... Finia and Elfin joined in as well.

So annoying.

She had obtained the ultimate power. A supreme power that rendered even the strongest species insignificant.

"You’re all so damn annoying!!!"

Lin roared like a beast and unleashed two advanced-level spells at once. A storm of destruction swept through the battlefield. Nina tried to open a subspace portal to defend herself, but she wasn’t fast enough. Lightning and fire exploded, engulfing everyone in the area, including Nina.

"Ugh… ahh…"

Nina struggled to get up, but her body wouldn’t cooperate. Rifa and Chiffon were also gravely injured, unable to move immediately. Finia and Elfin had suffered severe blows as well. They couldn't move on their own and had to focus solely on healing.

"Ahaha… ahahahaha!"

Lin laughed as she watched Nina and the others collapse. She laughed joyfully, gleefully, as if she found it all hilarious.

"Serves you right! This is what happens when you get in my way! Ahaha, it feels so good! Now, I’ll finish you off!!!"

Lin prepared to unleash another advanced-level spell—

"Nyaaa!!"

"Huh?"

A voice suddenly rang out, and Lin's eyes widened in shock. Before her stood Kanade.

"W-what… is that form…?"

Seeing Kanade, Lin instinctively took a step back, as if intimidated. Kanade's eyes gleamed with a golden light. They shone like gemstones reflecting sunlight—so beautiful, so divine.

On her right cheek, a crest-like mark had appeared. It was a simple design, resembling a fusion of a sword and a magic circle. But Lin had never seen such a crest before. Like Kanade's eyes, it glowed with a brilliant golden light.

Electricity crackled around Kanade, as if her very existence was charged with lightning. Sparks surged across her legs, arms, and torso. At first glance, she seemed to be nothing but a being of pure lightning—but that wasn't the case. Her life energy had surged to an overwhelming level, unable to remain contained within her body. The excess energy was discharged outward. Yet, rather than letting it disperse wastefully, she kept it wrapped around herself, ready to reuse it at any moment. That was the system governing her power.

"Nyaa…"

With golden eyes shining, a crest on her cheek, and her entire body crackling with electricity... And as a final change—her tail had split into two halfway down its length. Kanade had entered her awakened state. She glared at Lin.

The power to awaken was drawn from a strong desire to protect one’s comrades. That was the true condition for achieving this form.

"Enough already…"

"Eek!?"

Kanade’s overwhelming presence bore down on Lin, causing her to let out a small scream. That was just how immense Kanade’s aura had become.

"Dieeeee!!!"

Kanade clenched her right fist. In response, the lightning surging through her body concentrated into her right arm.

With her eyes and crest glowing, she struck with her lightning-cloaked fist.

"H-hmph! A mere physical attack? I have multiple barriers—aaahhh!?"

BANG! 

DADADAN!

GAAAN!!!

An absolute shield that protected its master. Even the strongest beings couldn’t break through it.

At least, that was how it was supposed to be…

Yet, the layers upon layers of protective barriers shattered into dust with a single blow from Kanade.

Her fist struck Lin directly, sending her thin body flying through the air.

Kanade leaned forward slightly and pressed her foot firmly into the ground. Immediately, the lightning gathered in her legs this time.

Then, in an instant, she kicked off the ground. She shot forward like a cannonball, moving at explosive speed.

She caught up to Lin—who was still soaring through the air from the previous hit—and maneuvered around her.

With a loud ZAAH!, the ground tore apart as she braked, spinning to face the incoming Lin.

"Nyaaah!!!"

Lightning surged through her legs as she delivered a powerful kick straight into Lin.

"Guh—gah!?"

Lin was sent hurtling in the opposite direction, tumbling like a ragdoll.

Even though she had quickly reactivated her multiple barriers after the first hit, they were all shattered once again.

――――――――――

"…A-amazing."

Finia, who had been watching the scene unfold, murmured in awe.

That power, that form—was this the true appearance of the strongest species? Was this what it meant to awaken?

She recalled hearing something about it from Elfin at some point.

She had been told that it was a power that defied common sense.

But still, to this extent…

It was overwhelming.

With just a single person’s efforts, the entire battle had flipped from defense to offense in an instant.

"I wonder… if I could become like that too?"

Finia whispered, her voice tinged with admiration.

"No! I can’t just wonder if it’s possible—I have to believe it is!"

Before anything else, she had to stand on her own feet and move forward.

She had to push herself.

She had learned that much from being with Rain.

"I will…!"

With newfound determination in her heart, Finia rushed forward to support Kanade.

TL Note- Kanade is OP....
