It wasn't about having a life-or-death battle with Kaito, needing to step over her dead body to marry her sister or anything like that.
What she needed to know was whether Kaito could protect her sister!
Even though Baal was clearly Kaito's guardian deity and needed to protect Kaito, now that Kaito was pursuing her sister, their roles naturally had to be swapped!
In the past, as her sister's shadow, as the strongest Raiden God in Inazuma, she had watched her sister die on the battlefield in despair, while she herself arrived too late, unable to save her sister...
That scene had directly become her shadow.
Even more terrifying was that her friends also died one after another, which also dealt her a heavy blow, causing her to begin to feel decadent and despair, ultimately pursuing eternity...
Now that her sister had been resurrected and wanted to live together with Kaito, she definitely had to fight Kaito to see if he had the ability to protect her sister and prevent the tragedy of that year from happening again!!
Even though she had fought against Verethragna before, and later Kaito killed him,
But at that time, she and her sister had jointly fought against Verethragna, which gave Kaito a long preparation time to kill him in one go.
However, in a real life-or-death battle, there are too many accidents. So, Beelzebul's test for Kaito was whether he could defeat her without any preparation!
"Since you need it, then I accept."
Kaito looked at the serious Beelzebul and nodded. After using magic to hypnotize a large area of people around them, the two of them directly flew up into the sky.
Beelzebul was very fast, but Kaito could easily keep up. After reaching above the clouds, illuminated by the red evening sun, the two of them each drew their weapons and began to fight.
Beelzebul held her Engulfing Lightning!
Kaito held his personally forged Vortex Vanquisher!
After Beelzebul chose to initiate the attack, a fierce onslaught like thunder came at Kaito.
Very fast, and each attack carried violent lightning.
But unfortunately, Kaito was no longer the Kaito of the past. Now, approaching SSS-class strength, he simply raised the Vortex Vanquisher and effortlessly dismantled her attacks one by one.
"Sister-in-law, if it's only like this, you haven't even made me show my true strength, you know?"
"...It seems you have indeed become stronger since the last time we met. Then, how about this!!"
Crackle, crackle, crackle —!!!
A giant blue eye appeared behind Beelzebul. As the familiar divine eye opened, the entire sky became covered with dense clouds, winds howled, and lightning continuously darted among the clouds.
Good grief, Kaito couldn't help but exclaim!
He just said one sentence, and the Raiden Shogun was going all out, huh!
Lightning flashed, countless afterimages began to converge!
As Beelzebul, in a familiar posture, floated in the air and slowly drew a purple tachi from somewhere...
Crackle —!!!
Her aura directly multiplied!
From a distance, Kaito yelled out in his mind, 'Milk Fragrance One Slash!'
Even though it looked very serious, majestic, and extremely threatening, it just made Kaito drool...
Ahem, ahem!
No, no, how could he look at her like that?
He was being very serious now, leaning back in a tactical posture, with a grave expression, just watching her entire process of drawing the sword.
"Now, moment of annihilation —!!!"
Hmph —!!
Crackle —!!!
Beelzebul transformed into lightning and rushed over instantly. Kaito was already prepared and smiled as he unfolded his Jade Shield.
[Fortress of Jasper]
[Sturdy as Stone]
[All things gather]!!
Bang —!!!
The slash directly hit Kaito's shoulder, obviously not intending to kill him; at most, it would have cut off his left arm.
But unfortunately!
Even though Beelzebul had seriously drawn her Musou no Hitotachi to attack Kaito, the strongest slash after drawing the sword only managed to break through one layer of his shield.
But don't underestimate this one layer of Kaito's shield; it was a shield infused with even more immense magical power.
This was much thicker than the shield he had when facing Zeus!
Even Sun Wukong's full-power strike with the Ruyi Jingu Bang could only break one layer.
And there were still 9 layers of such 'thick' and 'sense of security' shields left!
"...I lose."
"Hmm? You're giving up just like that?"
After her slash failed, Beelzebul retreated a few meters and looked at Kaito with a very complex expression.
After she couldn't help but let out a long sigh, she put her sword away and conceded defeat.
The first time she met Kaito, she truly hadn't sensed how strong Kaito was. She didn't expect that in such a short time, Kaito had become so powerful.
Even if she unleashed her limits and fought with all her strength, she probably couldn't defeat Kaito.
Since that was the case, there was no point in continuing to fight.
Might as well admit defeat early.
"Kaito... my sister... I leave her to you!"
"Alright! What about you? What are your plans now?"
"I'll go back..."
Swish...
Kaito pulled out the world's most delicious Tricolor Dango.
"What are you doing?"
Beelzebul's expression suddenly changed. She couldn't help but swallow her saliva and looked vigilantly at this 'brother-in-law'.
"I think instead of going back and boringly staying in the world of the Plane of Euthymia, why not stay here for a while? Besides, your sister said that time in your world freezes when you come here, so you don't have to worry about missing anything, right?"
"This..."
It was a very, very tempting offer!
Of course, the most tempting thing was the Tricolor Dango in Kaito's hand.
Really, even Beelzebul didn't know why she craved that Tricolor Dango so much!
If Kaito hadn't taken this out, she probably wouldn't be acting so embarrassingly right now!
"Hehehe, how about it? Don't you want to have some fun here and taste various delicious foods?"
"Don't worry, I have money..."
"!!!"
"I accept!"
Hearing what Kaito said, Raiden Shogun accepted it quickly!
