JJK X Fate: The Heroic Sorcerer Chapter 38: Subduing Mahoraga

In the ti that followed, Eichi continuously prepared to subjugate Mahoraga.

Soon, another weekend arrived, and on the first day of his holiday, he went to the mountains far from the city.

Night fell quickly, and Eichi rose to prepare for action.

Cursed Energy surged throughout his body, and two Shikigami appeared beside him.

One was Qiongqi, who had already appeared before, and the other was the newly fused Giant Elephant.

The Giant Elephant was a Shikigami Eichi obtained by fusing Max Elephant, Great Serpent, and Round Deer.

Max Elephant was inherently thick-skinned and durable, and after fusing with Round Deer, its powerful healing ability made it a qualified tank.

Great Serpent fused into a snake tail much longer than the Giant Elephant's body.

Cursed Energy began to radiate from both Shikigami.

Before initiating the subjugation ritual, Eichi not only accumulated a large amount of Cursed Energy, he also researched a thod to enhance the Ten Shadows Technique's Shikigami based on strengthening Heroic Spirits with Command Spells.

This process was simpler than he imagined, because the System had modified the Holy Grail before he left, and the Heroic Spirits summoned by the Holy Grail also existed in the form of Shikigami.

They were all Eichi's power.

The two Shikigami, strengthened to their most powerful state, began their actions.

Qiongqi imdiately took to the sky, and the Giant Elephant walked to the front with heavy steps.

"Next, it is ti for tonight's protagonist to make his entrance."

Eichi clasped his hands forward, chanting the spell to summon Mahoraga.

"Furube, Yurayura, Yatsuka no Tsurugi, Ikaishinshō Makora!"

Mahoraga's figure slowly appeared, and the chains binding it broke one by one.

The strongest Shikigami once again appeared before Eichi.

"There is an old saying, there is a first and a second ti, but no third or fourth. Summoning you the first ti was for self-preservation, so that does not count. This is my second attempt to subjugate you."

Looking at Mahoraga, Eichi grew increasingly excited.

"Beco my power, Mahoraga."

Perhaps sensing his fervent gaze, Mahoraga grinned, and the Sword of Exorcism in its hand stabbed toward Eichi's head.

"Moo."

The Giant Elephant in front of Eichi moved. Its body, only slightly shorter than Mahoraga, charged forward.

Its trunk deflected the Sword of Exorcism's angle, and the Giant Elephant ramd into Mahoraga.

Mahoraga grabbed the tusks with force, seemingly trying to break them off.

"Hiss."

A long snake tail extended from behind the Giant Elephant and bit Mahoraga's right arm.

Mahoraga failed to break the tusks and tried to retreat.

Qiongqi in the sky swooped from behind, its sharp tiger claws reaching for Mahoraga's back.

Mahoraga turned and punched Qiongqi with its left fist, forcing the attack back, but it still failed to escape the Giant Elephant's entanglent.

The Giant Elephant stepped in, its trunk and snake tail attacking from the left and right.

Mahoraga was entangled again.

The Sword of Exorcism is extrely fatal to Cursed Spirits, but the Shikigami of the Ten Shadows Technique are not the sa as Cursed Spirits, and Round Deer's Reverse Cursed Technique can also heal Shikigami summoned by the Ten Shadows Technique.

Therefore, the Sword of Exorcism was rely a sharp arm blade in front of the Giant Elephant.

Seeing the Giant Elephant successfully entangle Mahoraga, Eichi nodded with satisfaction.

When he first fused the Giant Elephant, he encountered a problem.

Its defense was very strong, and its inherent brute strength and water attacks were not to be underestimated.

However, the Giant Elephant could not hold opponents.

That is right, as a tank, the Giant Elephant actually could not hold opponents.

A tank that cannot taunt or draw aggro is as good as useless, isn't it?

Max Elephant was clumsy, and the even larger Giant Elephant was clumsier.

Previously, Eichi had sought out Suguru to test the Giant Elephant's resilience.

After summoning a few Grade 1 Cursed Spirits, Suguru quickly discovered its weakness.

A few Grade 1 Cursed Spirits used kiting tactics that made the Giant Elephant dizzy.

Spraying water was not very effective. At close range, the Giant Elephant did not have ti to charge, and under Geto's command, the Cursed Spirits even used the impact of the water jets to escape its sphere of influence.

Although ranged attacks greatly increased the power of the water flow due to charging and compression, the opponent also had more ti to prepare.

The hit rate plumted.

After realizing the Giant Elephant's weakness, Eichi began to ponder solutions.

In his plan, a Shikigami capable of directly withstanding Mahoraga's pressure was essential, so the Giant Elephant could not be abandoned.

After extracting so Cursed Energy from several other Shikigami and fusing it with the Giant Elephant, Eichi chose Great Serpent.

Great Serpent's body was very long, much longer than Max Elephant.

After fusing with the Giant Elephant, its size increased by another circle.

Great Serpent's unexpected and deadly attack thods compensated for the Giant Elephant's shortcomings in offense and holding opponents.

Moreover, with Round Deer's Reverse Cursed Technique for healing, Great Serpent did not have to worry about being completely destroyed.

With this snake tail, the Giant Elephant finally t Eichi's expectations.

In the sky, Qiongqi began to fly into the distance.

On the ground, the Giant Elephant fought Mahoraga with all its might.

It was not long before Mahoraga gained the upper hand.

Eichi frowned. The gap between the Giant Elephant and Mahoraga was obvious. If not for the Giant Elephant's powerful recovery, it might have been killed several tis already.

At this rate, it would not be long before Mahoraga broke free of the entanglent.

The clearest sign was that the injuries on the Giant Elephant, which had just been struck by Mahoraga, were healing very slowly.

Clearly, Mahoraga had found a way to break the current stalemate.

Eichi crouched down and reached into his shadow.

The Ten Shadows Technique's shadow was like an independent space, capable of not only storing items but also allowing travel through it.

After Eichi first mastered storing things in his shadow, he happily stuffed many items into it.

Then he collapsed to the ground.

He was pressed down.

Feeling that sothing was wrong, Eichi quickly released everything from his shadow, and the feeling of being crushed receded.

After several attempts, he finally confird one thing.

His shadow was like a backpack. The weight of the items he put in would be entirely borne by him.

Eichi's right hand sank into the ground, and soon he retrieved two Heroic Spirit chess pieces from the shadow.

Berserker and Lancer.

Injecting Cursed Energy into the two chess pieces without reservation, the Berserker, over two ters tall and wielding a stone axe, and the Lancer, carrying a long spear, were summoned.

[Shadow Servant: Berserker.]

[Shadow Servant: Lancer.]

Eichi moved forward to draw Mahoraga's attention, and upon seeing the initiator of the subjugation ritual, Mahoraga began to attack him.

With the help of Berserker and Lancer, Eichi began to contend with Mahoraga.

He did not let the Giant Elephant, Berserker, and Lancer engage in direct combat, because their strength was truly not enough to fight Mahoraga.

Moreover, attacking too early would only allow Mahoraga to adapt to all their attacks.

That would make it even harder to fight later.

Under Mahoraga's continuous attacks, the forest within a hundred-ter radius was quickly destroyed.

Eichi and Mahoraga were in clear view of each other, with nothing left to block or interfere.
