DanMachi, My Members Are From Slice-of-Life Anime

More than forty wooden spikes came flying like machine gun fire. With a look of terror on his face, Xia Jia turned into a golden light and disappeared in an instant.

"?" A question mark flashed through the Fire Fairy's confused mind.

Then, a figure suddenly appeared above her.

"Where are you looking?" Xia Jia revealed a confident, cold smile.

But it doesn't matter anymore.

"You seem to have forgotten that your opponent isn't me!"

The Flame Fairy suddenly remembered that there was an even more troublesome monster watching her intently.

"Destroy it!"

Leon's golden sword flashed, and the green flesh on the fairy's body turned to dust and vanished into thin air. A twisted and painful memory surfaced on the fairy's face.

More root-like tentacles sprouted from the magic stone on her chest, increasingly frantically absorbing the magical power of the fairy essence, trying to squeeze out even more strength. The vines all moved towards Leon's direction to launch a defensive attack.

"It's now……"

A kunai fell freely, slowly drifting from the fairy's eye.

She seemed to see Shaka's face reflected in the blade of the kunai, and so her lips parted slightly...

"kill me."

"Flying Thunder God, Slash!"

With a flash of golden light and a soft thud, the short knife pierced the magic stone in the immortal's chest.

Click, click!

With a crisp sound, the seven-colored magic stone turned into crystal powder and scattered.

"Ahhhh-"

The green branches on the Fire Fairy's body twisted and convulsed wildly the moment the magic stone shattered. As the fairy howled in agony, the wooden spikes buried within its body burst forth in all directions.

Shaka's hair stood on end, and he instinctively activated the Flying Thunder God Technique...

Leon's figure also blocked the attack, his blade flashing and stopping most of the branches, but some still managed to slip through and stab at Shaga.

……

We can't get hit, or we're done for!

Shaka understood perfectly how terrifying this green flesh was. At the same time as exiting Flying Thunder God Technique, he quickly swung his weapon, and the flaming dagger swiftly shattered most of the attacks.

……

Puff puff puff puff.

The wide-range, all-encompassing death revenge skill left Shaka nowhere to hide. Even with the Flying Thunder God Technique and Leon's protection, he still couldn't escape the torrential, death-defying burst.

Tiny wooden splinters pierced Shaga's body instantly, like steel needles, shattering his armor and sending blood gushing out.

Shaga could only try his best to block vital points with his weapon and shatter attacks as much as possible. At one point, the clan crest on his back began to heat up, as if the power in his whole body was expanding, and his speed was getting faster and faster.

That's the effect of [Wings of Justice].

Shaga's base bonuses have gradually progressed from the early stages of level 2 towards the peak of level 2.

But it's so...

After the attack was completely over, Shaga trembled for a moment, like a tattered rag riddled with bullets, and then crashed to the ground.

"Shaga!"

In the distance, the black cat's pupils contracted, and it rushed forward immediately, unleashing a torrent of healing white wind to repair Shaga's injuries.

At the wound, branches resembling tree vines sprouted, taking over the wound and beginning to sprout.

"Ugh—Master, I can't go on anymore, I'm being drained dry." Mamenosuke wailed.

"How...how could this happen? No, hold on, hold on a little longer!"

"We can't let him die here!"

Shaga lay on the ground, staring blankly at the sky, his vision blurring intermittently...

"Oh no, I've lost too much blood."

He coughed up a large amount of blood; his lungs were completely punctured, and he was spitting blood with every breath.

Leon walked over and sprinkled a bottle of panacea on it. But the green sprout stuck in the flesh prevented the medicine from healing the wound.

He frowned. Someone needed to use precise techniques to remove these branches, or even eradicate them completely. Only he, and..., could do that.

At this moment.

Everyone gathered around...

Yuki looked bewildered, Deko remained silent, and Lefia stared blankly into space.

This result was unexpected by everyone.

"You don't have to be a hero, why did you have to be? Can't you just be a good game planner, hiding behind the scenes and secretly harvesting profits?! Why do you have to be a hero?!"

Tears fell from the black cat's eyes and dripped onto Shaka's face.

It's so cold...

"That's just the kind of person he is."

Yuki clenched her fist, her nails digging into her flesh, drawing blood.

She recalled what had happened to her...

She protected Nishimiya, who had transferred to the school, ignored the bullying, stood firmly on her side, and even jumped into the icy river without hesitation to save Menma...

This is just what Yuuki saw...

That child, from a young age, loved to shout, "I want everyone to be happy!"

He always puts on a cool demeanor and speaks in a language that Yuuki can't understand.

He even said he wanted to become the king of the harem! And that everyone would become his wings…

What an idiot...

Although he's a bit of a fool, he's always kept his promise, and even now he's using his own methods to bring smiles to everyone's faces...

But why was it him who fell?

……

Yuki looked utterly defeated and began to blame herself.

Xia Jia wanted to speak, to say: I think I can still be saved. Could someone please give me some treatment quickly? Stop crying.

But his mouth was full of blood, and it looked like he could hardly speak.

Tu Shou, however, remained calm and said, "I know that feeling. Old Xia is saying he can still be saved. And you guys stop chatting. Hurry up and pull the branches out. You stinky cat, where's your curse? Use it to corrode!"

Xia Jia's eyes welled up with tears, moved as she thought: Even her usual verbal tic is gone; this child must be quite panicked too. Ah, you really understand me!

Leon looked regretful: "It's because he wanted to save everyone. In the words of the gods, he's a man who won't give up until he gets a happy ending."

"What do you mean?" Yuki looked at Leon.

Leon, on the other hand, looked at the Flame Fairy who had slowly risen to her feet.

He wanted to save you.

“He told me that you still have consciousness, that you are not evil, so he did this in an attempt to save you.”

"He knew that if I, at level 7, were to unleash that sword strike, that thing would surely fight to the death. Only if he, as a mere nobody, could deliver the fatal blow in a sudden and unexpected manner, thus truly liberating you."

As everyone looked over, the fairy's eyes were clear, her delicate face was covered in tears, she was covered in wounds, and a large hole in her chest was gushing blood.

She walked step by step toward Shaga.

Except for Leon, everyone else wore a wary expression, but they didn't take a single step back.

"What do you want to do?"

Without uttering a word, the fairy staggered forward, leaving a trail of blood on the ground, and soon knelt down before Xia Jia.

"Why?" she asked softly, her face full of sorrow, as she held the disheveled Xia Jia.

The voice rang out from Shaga's brain.

He answered in his mind: "There's no why... I won't die. Haha. If I really have to say, I don't want to... see, see a girl crying in front of me, cough cough."

Blood seeped from his mouth, and Shaja's vision blurred little by little, but in the end, as if to show off, he silently lip-read:

"No, don't panic, I think I can still be saved."

"Fool……"

Shaga gradually lost consciousness.

Oh, it still went wrong...

It was clearly according to plan...

Leon drew their attention, then I launched a sneak attack to divert their gaze, causing the fairy to underestimate me. Leon then followed up, disarming the fairy, and finally, I, who had already been considered a weakling, launched a counterattack and shattered the magic stone.
