《Infinite Swordsman and His Cafe》Chapter 17: Behemoth
Advertisement
Yasaka looked at the giant monster in front of her. This is Jacob the Behemoth, one of some few Stray Devils that evolve into another being after absorbing the chaotic demonic energy at large quantities in a short amount of time.
Right now, Yasaka, Ajuka Beelzebub, and Serafall Leviathan are creating some sort of barrier around the capital city to prevent Behemoth from destroying it while Sirzechs Lucifer and Falbium Asmodeus try to push Behemoth from the city.
While Yasaka knows both Falbium and Sirzechs can push Behemoth, they can't do any damage to it either. Behemoth is known as the Devil Killer because of its powerset. Behemoths have a power of Dynakinesis, or at least that was the power that it usually uses. What makes Behemoth a Devil Killer is because it's Kill Aura that renders any Demonic Energy useless, and the very same Aura also burns anyone close enough to it. Ajuka says the Kill Aura has a reach of 10 meters to all directions from Behemoth. Only some few devils can get close enough to Behemoth. The one that can fight indefinitely near Behemoth is Sirzechs and Falbium. In contrast, Serafall and Ajuka only can fight for a few minutes before they need to go away from Behemoth.
Behemoth Kill Aura not only affects the Devil but the other beings as well. The first time people notice Behemoth Kill Aura effect Devil violently, many Devil elders hire some mercenary to fight Behemoth. Unfortunately, Behemoth also affects other beings, so the mercenary the elder sends is dead as they charge at Behemoth carelessly. The Kill Aura is less effective on humans, but sadly the Kill Aura still can affect them, but humans that have enough durability can get close to Behemoth.
The only thing they can do is to shoot Behemoth from afar while Sirzechs and Falbium hold Behemoth.
"SHOCKWAVE INCOMING"
Yasaka looks at Behemoth's body glowing white and then raises its hand before clapping it. When Behemoth clapped its hand, a powerful shockwave hit them. The shield that Yasaka creates is not enough to prevent her from getting thrown off by the shockwave. Before Yasaka could get thrown far away from the battlefield, she felt something cold on her feet. She looks at her feet and sees an ice hold of her, so she does not get thrown away.
After a few seconds, the shockwave stopped, and Yasaka could feel something crawling on her skin. This is another Behemoth power. When its body is glowing, Behemoth releases a Radiation from its body and combines with the Shockwave; Behemoth can spread the Radiation.

She looks at Behemoth that stomps its foot into the ground, and suddenly a volcano rises from the ground and begins spewing lava all over the place. Ajuka, Serafall, and Yasaka have some difficulty maintaining the barrier as not only do they need to hold any Behemoth attack but also the lava that comes to the city.
She doesn't want to do this, but seeing the situation she needs to change to her Kyuubi form. She looks at both Ajuka and Serafall before saying.
"Serafall, Ajuka. I will help both Sirzechs hold Behemoth. I will help them with my other form."
"But, this is not Kyoto."
"Yes, I can only use this form for a few minutes, but with it, I can hope both Sirzechs and Falbium can defeat Behemoth or at least make it retreat."
Ajuka hesitates a little but finally nods at her.
"The other Devil also arrives so the barrier can be maintained without a problem."
Just like Yasaka says, the other Devil arrives at the battlefield, and with them is all the clan head from each devil clan.
Using her Youjutsu, she begins to fly toward Behemoth that slowly walks toward the city. She takes a deep breath and slowly releases the Senjutsu from her body. A second later, she felt her body begin to change and become as tall as Behemoth 15 meters tall.
She then began to fire her Fox Fire at Behemoth. She sees her fire does not do any damage to Behemoth as the Behemoth absorbs the fire. She then begins to charge at Behemoth and holds it down with her claws and tails. She can feel the effect of Behemoth Kill Aura that slowly but surely damages her body. She looks at Sirzechs that gathers his Demonic Energy and forms a javelin on his hand. While Falbium creates a disk made of the attack of Behemoth Radiation and Shockwave that he absorbs earlier.
Sirzechs nod at her indicating that they are ready to fire their attack. Yasaka then leaps away from Behemoth as the Both Satan, and some of the Clan Head fire their attack at Behemoth.
*BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM*
She could see many explosions happening that hit Behemoth. After a few seconds, the explosion stops, and they can see Behemoth only has a few chunks of its body destroyed but not enough to kill it.

*Grrrr Aaaa!!!*
Behemoth roar at them, and Yasaka can see its body begin to heal at an insane speed, and after a few seconds, Behemoth is recovered to its original state.
Behemoth raises its hands once more and then claps it. Another shockwave is happening, but this time Behemoth did not stop with just one shockwave, but he clapped three times, making the shockwave much more potent than the last one.
Yasaka gets thrown off for at least 20 meters away from her previous position. As she gets up, Behemoth raises his toward her, and the Devil around Behemoth before suddenly coming from its hand is a blast of Lightning shooting at them.
*Boom*
The Lightning hit Yasaka right on her body, making her roar in pain.
"Arrgh!"
After a few seconds in agony, she looks at Behemoth and suddenly disappears from its previous position and then appears right near her and rams its body to her throwing her away. Before she could even stand up, Behemoth fired another Lighting at her. With the last power, she has Yasaka successfully dodge the attack, but she stumbles to the ground and can't even stand up because of the effect of the lighting.
Before Behemoth could attack her weakening body, Sirzechs shot many powers of destruction toward Behemoth that roared at him and charged at Sirzechs and the Devil near him.
She could see Sirzechs and Falbium leading the Devil to attack Behemoth from all sides. Sirzechs decided to hold Behemoth in place while Falbium and the other attacked Behemoth from a distance.
Yasaka can see the hopelessness as the Devil attack is useless against Behemoth. The Belial Clan head power of Worthless is futile as it was not working against an enemy like Behemoth. Sitri power that controls over water is useless as the water never touches the Behemoth because not only does the Behemoth release a massive amount of Radiation, it also releases a heat around its body that can melt steel in an instant. Balam's super strength and durability are useless as Behemoth can redirect the energy created by Balam punch to the other. Agares Time Manipulation is not enough to even slow down Behemoth. Even Abbadon holes cannot redirect Behemoth attacks as every Behemoth attack has the same attribute as the Kill Aura that negates any Demonic Energy.
Yasaka decides to use her trump card.
"Hear me!"
"Know me!"
"I'm the Leader of Youkai!"
"The Fox Queen!"
"The one blessed by Amaterasu!"
"I call The blessing of the almighty queen!"
"Open the pathway to her Authority!"
"I Yasaka! Declare! the pathway be OPEN!"
Suddenly she felt a divinity coming to her body. She also felt her Goddess Amaterasu answer her plea. Her body begins to release an insane heat that even surpasses Behemoth. She raises her tails high in the air and says.
"With this Authority, I Declare!"
Above her hand appeared a ball of the miniature sun that slowly grew in size. After the ball of the sun has a diameter of 5 meters, Yasaka says.
"Be Gone!"
"Bright Sun!"
The miniature sun is shot at Behemoth, seeing the incoming attack, Behemoth raises its hand and tries to absorb the Yasaka attack. Seeing Behemoth decide to block the attack, Yasaka smiles, and a second later, the miniature sun explodes.
After a few seconds, they can see Behemoth lose half of its face and its left arm. Yasaka, who uses all her chakra, changes back to her normal form and releases a relief breath.
However, before she could walk away from the battlefield, Behemoth moves once more and then charges a massive light from its back and to its mouth. While charging the lighting, Yasaka could see Behemoth's body regenerate at an insane speed, and after a few seconds, it healed to the original state. After finishing charging, Behemoth fires the lighting toward her. Yasaka closes her eyes and accepts her death.
"Ahhh, I will make Kunou sad, huh? I'm sorry, Kunou. I can't play with you, tonight…. I'm sorry Kojiro looks like I can't arrive at our date."
However, before the Lightning could touch her, Yasaka heard Kojiro's voice from her back.
"Hiken: Hien"
Yasaka slowly opens her eyes and sees Kojiro back against her with his sword cutting the lighting that is coming toward her. After a few seconds, the lighting is gone while Kojiro and Yasaka are fine.
"Hello Yasaka"
