Viola, Kylan, and Tatsumaki are now down and are all unconscious. The only threats left are Leoran and Popo. I can definitely see Leoran, not as a threat but as a nuisance due to his arrows, and due to how passive his attack is, he is a little bit easier to deal with. The hardest is Popo. Unless we cancel his transformation skill, we will have to deal with his Berserk Bear form which is pretty troublesome due to how strong a berserk bear is and since we are here to just knock him out, not kill him, we have to cancel this current transformation and stop his rampage once and for all.
Sigma is still dealing with Popo and Tsuru and Atlas helping Tatsumaki settle down along with the others, only I am fit enough to deal with Leoran. Now that my speed is back to normal, all of the fast arrows of Leoran are something I easily dodged. He was fast, but I am faster than him.
I can see Leoran' is getting angry as I easily avoided all of his attacks and all of his arrows missed the mark. As soon as he runs out of the bolt and is ready to go back and reload, I took advantage of it and slid beside him and swinging my hands as hard as I can to his feet and slamming my whole body to his chest, followed with a single punch on the gut with my Gauntlet.
Leoran is not the most well-built man and his armor is not made of metal as Rangers cannot equip any except for cloth armor. An easy takedown caused Leoran to be defeated as a result and he also got knocked out as well.
Despite knocking out Leoran, I seem to have some bad feelings about this. There is something wrong that I can't exactly pinpoint what it was but is very much troublesome even for me. Atlas immediately handles the unconscious body of Leoran, allowing me to immediately shift my focus to Popo who is still causing Sigma to defend. With Sigma fully focused on her defense, I should be the one doing the damage.
While not looking in my direction, I jumped into the back of Popo, climbed at his broad back, and charge up my fist. Popo noticed me and tried to shake me off of him but my grip on his neck is strong enough that despite shaking his body for a bit to remove me is not doing much. A few seconds later, the charge noise of my gauntlet starts to rev up and it felt heavy now.
"Collapse!"
BANG!
Popo's body collapsed, his eyes glowing white before he fell to the ground. I made another punch just to make sure and he returned to his normal body. Tsuru this time picked up Popo. I heard from the others that Tsuru and Popo are friends in real life. Might be the big reason he is helping him immediately.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I am a little bit disappointed I don't see any blood spilled but seeing you all beating up your friends works as well. But you cut off a bit of my work."
Sigma and I ready our weapons as the Pope slowly stands up from his throne. He is grinning as he put his hands behind his back and all the tentacles around the area started to gather around him. It looks so disgusting that even staring at the thing gives me some weird and strange feeling in my stomach.
"Heheheh, why are you all uptight? Aren't you all here trying to meet me? You guys went inside the church looking for me."
His voice suddenly felt a bit heavy. I don't feel it before but now, the same feeling I felt when I met the god that the cult was worshipping is happening right now. I have already felt it before but for some reason, it was like he intensified the feeling a little bit more.
All of a sudden, tentacles suddenly sprout out of the ground and tried to catch us. Sigma immediately dodges. I also dodge away as well and change the Versatile Weapon into a cannon and as I jump off, I shoot out one cannonball to crush the tentacle to paste.
"Why are you all running away? Isn't it a good chance for me to show my appreciation to all of you?"
"You can shove that on your ass old man. We are not interested in your shit," Sigma cursed.
"What an insolent child. You are a child of the holiness and you are spouting heretical words."
He snaps his fingers and full pressure fell to Sigma. Sigma felt it but she was strong enough to handle it that she still remain standing.
"OH?!" the pope is surprised.
"Who said I am a child of the holy? You dipsh*t. I might be using holy powers but I don't follow any gods. I follow my own path. If gods are giving me the advantage to use the power of the holy, then I will thank them, but they can't force me to follow them. Especially if it is coming to someone like you."
"Ungrateful..." the pope smiled but that smile is not a sincere smile. A smile that gathers maliciousness.
The Pope raise her hands and aimed them at Sigma.
"You are gonna die..."
BANG BANG BANG!
The Pope's hands suddenly disappeared and black blood emerged from it. The pope turned around and our eyes meet.
"Ha. Why are you focusing on her too much? I am the one who is willing to kill you but you are focusing on someone who just joined me. Come on. Give me some attention as well."
SNAP!
The heavy pressure landed on me. But because I am already so familiar with the pressure, this means nothing much to me.
"USELESS!"
BANG!
A bullet pierced his head. A huge chunk of his head disappeared as the blast of the gun destroyed it. If the pope was a normal human, he would be dead by now. But that is not the main case now.
"I know you are not gonna die just yet."
The pope grinned. A dangerous grin.
