The Goddess Made A Mistake Again-Chapter 49 - Haiel’s Defeat

I don’t know the shit this guy was pulling, but I wasn’t going to waste precious time because of it. I prepare my sword like a batting stance and right when he looked back at me, I hit him as hard as possible and saw him go right through the wall and outside.

"That’s a home-run." I said smiling as the thugs look wide mouthed at their second in command being tossed out like it was nothing. Even the leader had seen what happened from the beginning.

"Impossible! How can this be? He wasn’t affected by his powers?" Kisel asked himself looking directly at me.

’Powers? What is this guy talking about? What powers?’ I asked myself before a distant memory flashed in me.

’Ooooh!... Is this that hypnosis guy from the novel?’

In the novel, back when it was only Arthur, at that time as he was slicing through the horde of thugs there was a boss fight with someone that had hypnotic powers. Strangely even in the novel, the guy wasn’t able to hypnotize Arthur.

Back then I thought it might be because Arthur was special, maybe because he’s the protagonist that nothing happened to him, but maybe this guy was phony from the start.

Or maybe I have some special effect inside me that didn’t let me get hypnotized?... who knows, right now all I know is that I need to defeat an almost endless wave of thugs.

"Henry!" I look back and see Samantha arriving beside me, "I came to help."

"Thanks… But I really don’t think I need any-"

"Hey, I’m here too." Arthur also came beside me and with him came Elisabeth, "I took care of the thugs on the other side and came to help you."

I nodded to him and looked at Elisabeth, who asked in confusion, "What?"

"Well, they both came to help me defeat this guys… so what are you here for?"

"Ahh… I-I can’t fight." I looked at her innocent face a little strangely as Arthur whispered, "Is that your girlfriend?"

"What, her?" I pointed at Samantha who didn’t know why I did that, "Let me introduce you guys."

"Samantha, this is Arthur, a guy I met and this is Elisabeth, the daughter of the viscount, who’s party these thugs crashed." I then turned to the other two, "Arthur and Elisabeth, this is Samantha, a friend of my mine and my ex-fiancé."

"Nice to meet you." Elisabeth said and Samantha nodded, even while suspiciously gazing at the circumstance around them.

"Nice to meet yo- what the fuck!" Arthur’s head turned 1800 degrees towards me, "You have a fiancé."

"Had one."

"Oh… okay." He said and turned normal.

’How the fuck is that okay to you?’

"So how do we do this?" Samantha asked.

"There’s still too many of them." Elisabeth said.

"We can try to take care of them from different directions, so that none of us gets harmed in any way." Arthur said as Elisabeth and Samantha nodded.

"What do you think henr- and he’s already gone hacking them off again." Arthur looked at me doing what I’ve always been doing since the start, "I think only the two of us can do this strategy."

"Yes, on your move." Samantha said and the three went on to fight as originally scripted with one being a handicap.

...

While they were gathering their tea party strategy I went the easiest way and just killed them as I found them. I was somewhat close to the leader as I could see he’s and Haiel’s fight and I’ve got to say, it was definitely a cool one.

It felt like a fight straight out of some anime. Kisel was doing cool moves with the chained-scythe while Haiel used his sword and experience to keep fighting. But even through the killer movements I could see that Haiel had difficulty keeping up with the strange and unusual way that Kisel was using his weapon.

I knew it wasn’t long before the old man would fall just like in the novel and I couldn’t let that happen this time. I still needed to get his blessin-

"Hah!" I move myself more crazily and hack off arms and legs and what other parts that I didn’t even know. The thugs could see that even though I was fighting unorthodoxly, I was maiming them, quickly.

Kisel saw to that as well, which is why he changed his strategy to aggressive as well.

"Ahh!"

Haiel hissed, as the scythe locked onto his arm and a heavy tug from that immediately prompted him to the floor.

"Ahh!" He felt the scythe forcefully unwrap itself and the steel chains crush the muscles of his right arm. Even with that pain he tried to hold onto his sword and get up but the scythe once again came at him and right as he was about to block it from he’s chest, it changed direction.

The scythe turned with the tone of Kisel’s tugs and hit his Achilles Heels, making his left leg useless as he fell on the floor again.

"Well, it seems you’ve arrived at your last point. There’s no going back from this Viscount, just tell me what I want to know."

"And what might that… be?" Haiel said, hand inching towards his sword which was stopped by a leg crushing over it, "ahhh!"

"The map."

"What map?"

"Don’t be coy with me now, viscount." Kisel went down to Haiel’s face, "Tell me where’s the map?"

Haiel, whose face was in pain, shifted and smiled, "Your going to… ahh… have to go through my dead bones."

"So be it," Kisel stood, "If I can’t bring it out of you, I’ll try with your daughter. Let’s see how she reacts to it." He then started spinning his scythe faster and faster.

"Goodbye, oh honorable viscount." Kisel smiled and threw his scythe. But right before it could connect, something black and heavy hit it.

Kisel’s control over his kusarigama lost as he saw it get stuck to the wall alongside a very strange and unique greatsword alike.

Recognizing the sword, Kisel smiled, "You might have stopped me from killing him and also locked down my weapon, but in doing so you lost yours." Then he looked right at me, "So how do you intend to win without one?"

I walk to him as piles of bodies are laid under me, "Don’t worry about that, my fists are enough to smash your face in."
