Although the Shinomiya Family had used their authority to seal the area at the time, the scale of the battle was simply too vast. It wasn't strange that someone managed to capture some video footage.
They just never expected those who filmed it to connect the kilometer-tall giant from then with the current darkened sky and heavenly thunder punishment, and even guess correctly.
These were indeed all Yusei's doing, and both were related to lightning, so calling him a God of Thunder wouldn't be wrong.
The original plan to demonstrate archery skills was completely disrupted by Yusei's single arrow, which even he didn't fully understand. Even now, Kaguya was still looking at him with a hint of resentment.
Fortunately, her attention was completely captured by Asuna's Authority, so she wasn't dwelling on the arrow incident anymore.
Hayasaka drove, and they soon arrived at the Shinomiya Family's private hunting grounds.
There were quite a few animals inside. The management was fully automated, with no dedicated personnel for feeding… it was completely wild.
Arriving at the open field, Yusei directly summoned the Complete Body Susanoo. It wasn't as colossal as the Perfect Body, but it was still immensely powerful.
Kaguya and Hayasaka retreated to a distance, watching to see how Asuna would lift Yusei's Susanoo.
Asuna was actually a bit nervous. This was her first time using an Authority. She had only known their effects and conditions before, so actually operating them made her somewhat tense.
Especially when facing this Susanoo, towering like a small hill, she inevitably felt a sense of powerlessness.
"Asuna, it's okay. You can do it," Yusei said from inside the Susanoo, smiling encouragingly at her.
Using Authorities had levels of proficiency. Yusei naturally hoped Asuna could become skilled in using them, so he could feel more at ease about her safety.
All along, Asuna hadn't had any special skills to rely on.
Kaguya's swordsmanship was astounding, and even a well-trained special forces soldier probably couldn't defeat her.
But Asuna was different. Her strength in SAO was immense because her physical attributes in the game were enhanced.
In reality, however, Asuna wasn't that powerful. Although she remembered the sword skills, her physical body limited the full expression of her true strength.
Yusei also didn't have any miraculous elixir to make Asuna instantly grow as strong as Kaguya.
Kaguya had trained since childhood, accumulating over a decade of effort to reach her current level.
Yusei himself was cheating and couldn't be counted among those who trained diligently.
Currently, the system hadn't provided Yusei with items to help others become stronger.
So, after obtaining the Divine Authority Crystal Orbs, his first thought was to give one to Asuna.
Shiro, Tohru, and Kanna were with him at home every day, but Asuna's situation was different.
For safety's sake, Yusei gave the power to Asuna.
Today served two purposes: to show Kaguya something amazing, and to help Asuna master the [Ten Incarnations] Authority.
"Here goes!" Asuna approached Yusei, placed her hands on the Susanoo's structure, and mentally activated the [Bull] from the Ten Incarnations.
Instantly, the Susanoo's immense power was converted into nourishment for Asuna's strength. Her power surged to its maximum.
Under the astonished gazes of Kaguya and Hayasaka, Asuna actually lifted the gigantic Susanoo. Moreover, her expression showed no sign of strain.
Not only the others, but even she herself wore a look of surprise on her face.
"Huh? That's strange. I can't feel any weight, even though it looks very heavy."
Yusei dismissed the Susanoo, his body floating in the air before gently landing.
"So this is the power of an Authority?" Kaguya stepped forward, looking at Asuna with envy.
One must understand, after over a decade of swordsmanship training, she was utterly helpless against Yusei's Susanoo.
But the power Asuna displayed, lifting it so easily, proved she could lift Yusei himself and throw him.
'Does this mean that if I also had this power, I could defeat Yusei and reestablish the family hierarchy?' Thinking this, Kaguya's eyes couldn't help but light up. Her mind even raced, quickly considering the idea of teaming up with Asuna.
"Let's go!" Kaguya suddenly said.
"Go where?" Hayasaka was puzzled.
"Home, of course! I need to try that Authority power quickly!" Kaguya said excitedly.
Hayasaka looked at Yusei. Seeing him nod, she agreed.
"Let's all go together. I want to see what Kaguya's Authority is," Asuna chimed in.
Seeing Hayasaka still seeking Yusei's opinion, Kaguya felt a bit displeased, "Ai, you're my person. Have you been won over by this guy?" (T/N: Changing the calling to Ai, since Yusei called her Ai, so it would be strange if Kaguya still called her Hayasaka.)
"Not at all! I'm just worried something might happen to you without Yusei-sama's guidance, Ojou-sama."
"Oh? So, Ai-chan chooses Kaguya over me?" Yusei teased.
"No, Yusei-sama, please stop teasing me," Hayasaka looked at Yusei pleadingly.
Yusei smiled and didn't tease her further. But honestly, he felt she really should listen more to Kaguya, being her childhood friend and companion.
Hayasaka wasn't just Kaguya's maid… she was also her friend.
The Shinomiya Residence wasn't far from the hunting grounds, and a short car ride would get them there.
Yusei had brought back two Authority Crystal Orbs, one from Verethragna, and one from Melqart.
Honestly, Yusei felt Melqart's Authority was more powerful. Verethragna's strength lay in its versatility, suitable for various combat situations.
But if talking purely about combat power, Melqart's was more formidable.
Currently, Yusei himself really liked using Melqart's [Netherworld Legion], summoning the dead.
The deceased weren't just foot soldiers, and there were also very powerful general-class wraiths.
Besides that, Melqart also had authorities over Storms, Bountiful Harvests, Dragon-Slaying, Tempests, Lightning, Sky and Ocean, the Sun, Devastation, and Fertility.
In terms of pure combat power, Melqart's Authority definitely ranked among the strongest of the gods, otherwise, he wouldn't be called a God King.
Of course, the strongest was arguably the Ocean Authority, capable of freely summoning the power of the sea.
