Chapter 160: Gudako Outsmarted the Cat and Dog?!
Chapter 160: Gudako Outsmarted the Cat and Dog?!
After asking the question, Spike twisted his body to the right, using his left side to face the motionless shield lying on the ground below 'Gudako.' Placing his left hand by his left ear, he tried to listen carefully for Tom's response.
Despite Spike's attentive listening, there was not even the slightest sound coming from under the shield. It was as if the shield were an inanimate object.
Not receiving any response for a long time, Spike started to panic. He knew that his owner was aware of the enmity between him and Tom. If he returned with just the shield, his owner might question why Tom didn't come back, even suspecting that he had thrown Tom into Fuyuki Bay!
The fear of losing his owner's favor and even being abandoned haunted Spike. He chewed on his left paw, his entire face filled with worry.
Deciding that he couldn't just wait and worry, Spike made up his mind to rescue Tom from under 'Gudako.' Without further ado, he approached the shield and grabbed its edge with both hands, lifting it up with ease.
In an instant, the shield, roughly the size of Spike himself, was effortlessly lifted, revealing Tom underneath, squashed by 'Gudako' into a pot-like shape with fluffy fur, resembling a large iron pot.
Tom blinked a few times as he gazed up at Spike, who had lifted the shield.
"Ah, little kitty, are you okay? That's great!" Spike exclaimed with relief, happy to see that Tom was not harmed.
Hearing Spike's overly excited words, Tom, who looked like a pot, was thoroughly confused. He wondered if he had been flattened like a pancake, but he seemed fine.
As Spike relaxed, he decided that he must rescue Tom from 'Gudako's' clutches. He quickly reached out, grabbing the shield's edge, and lifted it with ease.
To Spike's relief, Tom was okay, resembling a large pot lying on the ground. Blinking his eyes, Tom was perplexed, wondering how he had survived being squashed flat like that.
Meanwhile, Gudako, who had been frozen in time due to Spike's actions, suddenly resumed her movements as the flow of time returned to normal. She seemed completely unaware of what had happened earlier and continued her charge with the same momentum.
Seeing Spike lift the shield and point it towards his dog mouth, Gudako immediately interpreted the situation as the dog attempting to eat her wig! After all, this dog had a history of such behavior!
Upon seeing the scene before her, Gudako immediately made the judgment that the dog wanted to eat her wig, just like how it had damaged Mashu's shield, Merlin's staff, and Artoria's holy sword. Her eyes began to turn crimson, and she seemed to be on the verge of entering her Chaotic Evil form.
Without any hesitation, Gudako charged towards Spike, wielding her makeshift meteor hammer. She swung the hammer directly at the heads of the four alligators lined up in a row.
"Dang~~~!!!" Spike, still rejoicing over Tom's unharmed state, had no time to react. He was hit directly on the head by Gudako's makeshift meteor hammer, causing a loud explosion.
The attack, made with the Saint Quartz on the hammer's striking part, self-destructed in a magnificent display of rainbow light. Although the Saint Quartz was destroyed in the process, the damage caused was considerable.
Upon the impact, Spike's eyes rolled back, and he lost consciousness instantly. Knocked out cold, he fell into a deep pit, disappearing from sight.
Witnessing Gudako's actions, Mashu, who was expecting to be captured, was stunned. "S-Senpai?!"
However, Mashu was not alone. C Chulainn, clutching his head after having his little black dress torn off, looked on in astonishment at Gudako.
Though not a black person, he felt like he needed to do a few head shakes to process what he was witnessing.
C Chulainn turned his head back to observe Gudako charging at Tom and Spike with her revealing attire. He wasn't hopeful that she could defeat these two abnormal beings; he simply wanted to see Gudako in a compromising situation.
If Gudako were to die before him in such a state, even though he knew that he would suffer a tragic end, he probably wouldn't regret it. At least, in his final moments, he would be happy.
With this mindset, he stopped his escape and turned back to watch the battle.
However, reality often surpassed imagination.
The events unfolding before him were completely beyond his expectations, leaving him dumbfounded.
Even if he was fed dog food until he burst, he could never have imagined that a mere ordinary person like Gudako could defeat Spike in a single blow! Was that even possible? Was he dreaming?
After all, Spike had easily taken him out with a single attack. Now, Gudako had managed to defeat Spike with just one hit of her makeshift meteor hammer? Was someone showing him a sci-fi movie or something?
Most importantly, C Chulainn was utterly perplexed. Gudako's strength was so formidable that she could have directly confronted Tom and Spike head-on. So why did she run away earlier?
"Wow!" Catching the giant shield that fell from the sky, Gudako's eyes lit up like stars, seemingly unaware that she had just taken down a being she was extremely afraid of.
"Biu~!" Tom, who had been flattened into a pot shape on the ground, bounced like a slime and instantly returned to his original form. There was no trace of being hit, as if the previous attack never happened.
After reverting to his human form, Tom lunged towards Gudako's position, attempting to retrieve "Gudako"!
