Although Klee and Paimon hadn't communicated with each other beforehand, the two of them nevertheless approached Scaramouche in perfect coordination, forming a pincer attack.
Seeing this, Scaramouche immediately panicked.
The overwhelming hostility was so obvious that he could feel it even from a great distance.
"This can't continue. I have to strike first!"
With that thought, Scaramouche's mind stirred.
The monster suddenly opened its enormous mouth!
Roar!
An orange destructive beam containing terrifying power instantly shot toward the Magus of Light ahead.
However, the Magus of Light wasn't nearly as cumbersome as Scaramouche's monster.
Under Paimon's control, it simply flipped through the air and dodged the attack.
"Again!"
Seeing this, Scaramouche frowned and turned his aim toward the enormous Ryujinmaru in the sky.
But with wings, Ryujinmaru was even more agile.
Its body shifted slightly, effortlessly evading the attack.
"Damn it!"
Seeing both attacks fail, Scaramouche's face filled with fury.
When they attacked him, every strike landed perfectly!
But when he retaliated, he couldn't even touch them!
From the outside, he looked like a complete idiot!
The thought only made him angrier.
So he continued firing destructive beams at the two of them!
"This big monster is so annoying!"
Klee pouted as she controlled Ryujinmaru to dodge yet another attack.
It wasn't difficult for her, but constantly dodging was still troublesome.
She wanted to go up there and throw a few punches!
"What should I do?"
Tilting her head, Klee began pondering.
Soon, an idea popped into her little head.
That's right!
She could use the Growth Lamp!
Hehe!
As long as she made herself big enough, its attacks wouldn't be able to do anything!
And once she was big enough, she could punch the little monster with one fist and even kick it around like a ball!
Just imagining that scene made Klee's eyes light up.
She had clearly thought of something fun.
Excited, she contacted Paimon.
Since both of their mechas were extraordinary, they naturally had the ability to communicate with each other.
"Paimon, can you hear me?"
"I can! What's up?"
Paimon hurriedly replied while rolling through the air to dodge another destructive beam.
She was finally experiencing the pain Scaramouche had suffered earlier.
And this was while she hadn't even been hit!
If she had been hit, the experience would have been even more unpleasant!
"Hehe, I'm going to show you something really cool later. Don't be scared!"
Klee giggled.
"Huh? Something cool?"
Paimon froze, a giant question mark practically appearing above her head.
At a time like this, instead of thinking about beating the monster,
Klee wanted to show her something cool?
Girl, this really wasn't the time!
But Klee didn't answer.
Instead, she pulled out the red Growth Lamp.
"Brother Han Feng said that I think I need to turn the switch toward the 'Enlarge' side!"
Klee recalled how to use it and began operating the device.
She controlled Ryujinmaru to fly above the Magus of Light, then aimed the light at it.
Whoosh!
As the beam descended, the Magus of Light visibly began growing larger at an astonishing speed.
It continued growing until it reached a height of three to four hundred meters before Klee finally put the Growth Lamp away.
"Holy crap! This is what you meant by something cool?!"
Feeling the dramatic change in the mecha's size and her field of vision, Paimon was completely stunned.
This was way too exciting!
It had already been enormous at several dozen meters tall,
but now it was three to four hundred meters?!
At this point, the monster wasn't even as tall as her knee!
Before her, it looked like nothing more than a toy!
Perhaps this was how they had looked to the Demon God Osial back then.
"Hehe, that's what the Growth Lamp does! I'm going to enlarge mine too!"
Klee nodded in satisfaction upon seeing the result.
This height was perfect for "playing soccer"!
She then aimed the Growth Lamp at her own Ryujinmaru.
Whoosh!
In an instant, Ryujinmaru began growing as well.
Its size likewise reached three to four hundred meters.
Boom!
When it landed from the sky, an enormous rumble echoed across the land!
The entire earth trembled.
Compared to it, the commotion Scaramouche had caused earlier was nothing more than child's play.
"N-no, wait... what is this?!"
Seeing this sudden development, Scaramouche stood there in a daze.
His mind had completely gone blank.
One mecha appearing wasn't particularly strange.
Two?
Fine, he could accept that too. It wasn't impossible!
But now they were pulling this?!
Even if several more identical mechas appeared, he could probably accept it.
But what the hell was with growing them to three or four hundred meters tall?!
Could things get any more ridiculous?!
At his current height of several dozen meters, he probably wasn't even tall enough to take one punch from them!
Scaramouche subconsciously swallowed as he looked up at the two towering figures.
For the first time, he truly understood what fear was!
"Paimon, let's play soccer! We'll use this big guy—uh, no, little guy—as the ball!"
After getting used to her enlarged body, Klee excitedly suggested it.
The monster wasn't even as tall as their knees now, so of course it could only be considered a "little guy"!
"Gasp! You want to use a monster as a soccer ball?!"
Paimon sucked in a sharp breath upon hearing the suggestion.
She usually thought she was pretty good at coming up with creative ideas!
But compared with Klee, she had to admit defeat!
She had actually thought of using a monster to play soccer?!
No wonder she had enlarged herself!
Still...
Paimon liked this game!
She had been suppressed by the monster earlier and couldn't fight back at all.
Now she could finally vent her frustration!
And besides, she had always been playful by nature.
"Hehe, Klee, that's a great idea! Let's see who can grab the 'ball' first!"
"Hmph! Watch me!"
The two girls then began charging toward Scaramouche.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Because of their enormous size, every step they took produced a deep rumble.
The surrounding earth trembled violently!
It almost felt like an earthquake had struck.
The tremendous commotion finally snapped Scaramouche out of his daze.
Seeing the two "mountains" bearing down on him, he hurriedly controlled the monster and fired destructive beams at them.
He intended to use the same trick as before and stop their advance.
But this time, it failed!
When the powerful destructive beams struck the two mechas, it was as though they were merely scratching an itch!
Only a few sparks flew before the attacks dissipated!
And this attack seemed to have enraged Klee and Paimon.
Boom!
Boom!
They sped up even further.
Seeing this, Scaramouche immediately panicked.
"You... you two, don't come any closer!"
