Gazing down at the ignited swarm, the shadowy figure from earlier couldn't help but be curious. Indeed, this was intriguing, how interestingly annoyingly irritating. This was enough to send butterflies flying all over its stomach.
"Ara ara. It's been more than twenty seconds, and they still haven't been devoured from the inside out. Even I can't tell what is happening down there anymore, but there is one thing I can say with more faith than anything in this world."
A sharp claw dug into the ice cold glass window and began to creak. Perhaps it was more furious than it looked, for those irritating insects to show more resistance than she'd have wanted to. And yet there was an unshakable faith in her voice.
"Legion has no weaknesses."
Invincible swarm, Legion
The count bravely faced the endless swarm, tearing its numbers asunder with nothing but its whip. It spun in devastating arcs with speed beyond common men, even the countless blades made from the legion itself proved no match and were deflected one after the other.
"Take this you freaky bugs!" Kuro shouted, then threw her magnificent blades at the surging wave of fiery insects from hell. The blades were spinning in a beautiful arc, the insects charging and focusing at that intense motion with a wrath reinvigorated.
No creature, no matter how powerful, would ever rush so suddenly and recklessly at such weapons. Perhaps they never had a choice, as the blades cleaved through the swarm as easily as a cannon through butter. It was as if this absolute defense, which was designed to immediately brace itself against the most devastating strikes, was now plunging down to these attacks to their death.
That autonomy in itself was a fatal flaw.
Yes, no holy substance, no matter how powerful, would ever annihilate those insects. Of course, even a blade forged from god himself, bearing the weight of a mountain, would never hope to cleave through the swarm. However, with their united efforts, the invincible swarm's formation could be broken.
