Episode 264. Raid (3)
Endless was greatly surprised when his body was suddenly impaled on something.
Now there was no one here who could stand against him.
Even though the four girls who suddenly barged in tried to grab him with all their might, they couldn’t inflict a single injury on him.
Moreover, now that he has been hit by thorns, he has reached a point where he cannot recover.
‘There would be no one left who would have the strength to attack me.’
Not to mention Radon Crawler.
He was already half-dead and not worth looking at.
There is no need to pay attention to him except to use him as a vessel later.
Yes, I saw the guy die with my own eyes.
But does this make sense?
-What the… How!
Suddenly my body felt pierced by something.
It was a slash from a stick that had been stretched elastically.
After piercing through the pitch-black body, he swung it horizontally and split Endless’ body in two.
The stick turned out to be a blue fishing rod. And the person swinging it was none other than… .
“radon…?”
Jenny muttered, doubting her eyes.
Radon, whose upper and lower bodies were clearly separated, was moving around normally.
The rest of them opened their eyes wide as they saw Radon suddenly come back to life.
However, doubts still outweighed joy.
It’s suspicious no matter how you look at it that a friend who was supposedly dead came back to life without any signs.
Is it because it is a fantasy world that is different from reality?
“Radon? Are you really Radon?”
“So who do I look like?”
“But until now….”
It kept dying.
Even though there was no bleeding, when I first saw the body split in half, I thought my brain was going to burst.
It was at that moment, when I was feeling so devastated, that Radon appeared again.
“That’s right. I definitely died once.”
That was never wrong.
After his body was torn in half in the imaginary world, Radon’s heart stopped beating.
It is only natural that he would be unable to get up for the rest of his life and would have to go into a coffin.
But then it happened again in that state.
Perhaps by now Radon’s heart is beating again in reality.
“But how….”
“Um… well. I don’t know how to explain this to you guys….”
Radon looked at the window in front of him and spoke with a look of embarrassment.
* * * * *
[The Secret Mission reward ‘Last Chance’ has been used.]
[The vitality that was reduced to 0 is refilled.]
[All abilities will return to their original state.]
This is the reason why I was able to come back to life.
A reward for the secret mission cleared while making a contract with Diora last time.
I had held back on interest because there was no specific explanation when it was called ‘last chance’.
At that moment, right before Endless’s body was torn in half, the spear suddenly appeared.
It was a window that notified whether to use the ‘last chance’ along with a notification that life was in danger.
It was only then that I realized what an opportunity this was.
“I got one last chance to come back to life.”
When Jenny asked how I came back to life, I said,
The reaction was, of course, that he didn’t understand English, and Ruska was no different, tilting her head.
He had an expression on his face that said he must have lost his taste after he died once.
Unfortunately, I can’t show them this system window.
“Hahaha… I don’t know what it was, but you came back alive, right? Right, senior?”
Nebia says with a smile.
There Mary asks in surprise.
“Really? You came back alive?”
“That’s right. My ears can’t be fooled.”
Since it was Nevia who could see into my mind just by my voice, she was able to tell that I was real.
And he saw right through me how I was feeling.
“Honestly, I’m also curious about how you survived. But I guess it’s a bit complicated to explain, right?”
That was exactly right. That was the moment when I nodded my head in agreement.
“Thank you so much for coming back alive.”
Naevia suddenly burst into tears. The rest of them were the same, but she seemed to be trying hard to hold them back.
-That’s right. I wonder how on earth he survived.
The God of Destruction, Endless, rises again.
The body of the guy that had been torn in half was put back together in a way that reminded me of mud.
And then he came back to life as if nothing had happened.
-I didn’t expect it either, so I got hit. That girl Dantia must have given you something.
Unlike me, he recovers his body in an instant.
His body can transform into anything, almost like a liquid human.
It is possible to deflect physical attacks by making the body slosh like slime.
He can freely manipulate his body to throw thorns or inflict slashes, and he can even use it to harden his body.
These are all of Endless’ main patterns used in the final boss battle of the main story.
The appearance of the imaginary world and the appearance of reality were the same for Endless as well.
If so, the pattern will also be the same as the main body.
thus….
-But even if I come back to life again… . Ugh!
The weaknesses will also be the same.
As I expected, the guy suddenly started feeling pain.
They also had doubts about the sudden appearance of a man who was impervious to any physical damage.
Today was a day of continuous surprises.
-Why are you suddenly doing this?
“Do you think I just attacked you when I attacked you just now?”
-what?
“You know how much I enjoyed the main story, Devil Aka.”
Devil Aka is an abbreviation for ‘Devil Road Academia’.
He already knows that I’m a veteran at that game.
So, if you think about it a little, the answer will come out.
The final boss of that game was Endless himself, and if you’re an experienced player, you’ll be able to skillfully figure out the final boss’s patterns and weaknesses.
-That means….
“Actually, that black, stretchy body of yours isn’t really your main body. The main body is the core inside your body.”
In fact, this is the part that can be called Endless’ real body.
That slimy, squishy body is nothing more than a shell created by Endless himself for battle.
If the main body inside it is attacked, its power will be weakened.
-That’s ridiculous! My core can move freely within my body!
In fact, it was quite small in size, so I remember having a hard time aiming the nuke.
Thanks to this, no matter how fast you fire, it is impossible to hit the moving nuke.
This is why it was called Endless, a difficult boss with colorful patterns.
But figuring out habitual movement routes was easy for the old-timers.
“I can clearly see the nucleus swimming inside your body. And you completely turned off your attention, thinking I was dead.”
-Ugh…!
It also played a part in the guy being completely off guard.
What would happen if such a veteran were to acquire the ‘Ma-an’? It would be almost like giving wings to a tiger.
“Besides, when I attacked your weak point, I put gold there. Do you know what I mean?”
Since the main body has suffered significant damage, the guy’s strength is significantly reduced.
The setting is no different from the main story.
-Do you think I’ll just accept it so easily?
Endless swung his arms like whips, writhing in pain.
But in an instant, Ruska approached me and blocked the attack with a double-edged sword.
“Why do you keep making people worry?”
“Sorry, sorry. This time, the other person was a bit….”
I, who was talking nonsense, ended up keeping my mouth shut.
It was because I couldn’t say anything in response to seeing Ruska’s face, which looked so sad.
“I warned you then. Don’t die.”
“….”
I had similar feelings when I was eaten by Diora.
I think I felt more sadness and anger than I ever did at that time.
“I’ll see you when you’re done.”
The moment Ruska spoke fiercely, numerous thorns flew out in front of her.
Ruska tried to deflect it, but a magical barrier and a giant ice slab rose up in front of us.
The magic barrier was, of course, Mary, and Jenny, who had erected the ice barrier, spoke.
“Honestly, Radon, we have a lot to wonder about you. But if you’re prepared to endure it, there’s still plenty of time.”
Mary and Nevia also nod.
“So… let’s fight together.”
This time, Ruska also nods her head at those words.
My answer to this was self-evident.
“Okay, let’s go. Let’s take care of that boss and go back to reality!”
I raised my Leviathan in response to their answer.
As Endless stood up again and attacked with his tentacles, we dodged his attacks and charged at him.
“Are you guys okay? You seem to be quite injured.”
“I don’t care anymore! What’s important about pain right now?”
Jenny, a girl who fights fiercely, speaks with a very bright smile.
There is no blood, but holes can be seen all over their bodies.
If I think about the pain I felt when my body was torn apart in half, I’m sure they felt the same.
I recovered while being resurrected, but they are still in progress.
“I don’t care either! My friend came back, so I can overcome anything!”
Mary speaks while countering the magic bullet fired by Endless with fire magic.
She, too, had a refreshing smile on her face. It felt different from her usual, absentminded wanderings.
“Honestly, I feel like I’m going to die from pain! But…, I’m not going to lay down on the floor until I knock that guy out!”
Nevia plucks the lute she holds in her hand and sends out sound waves filled with divine power.
The guy spewed out a poisonous gas-like smoke from his mouth, but it was all canceled out by the saint’s sound waves.
Since she had the power of a saint, she had a way of getting through to the god of destruction.
-Tch! As expected, my strength has weakened. But…!
A black, dull arrow shot out from the guy’s body.
He multiplied the arrow into several and fired them with ominous magic power.
“damage!”
Of course I knew what kind of attack it was.
That’s why the cry to avoid was inevitable.
Because if you touch it even once, you won’t be able to recover.
Naevia, who sensed the sense of crisis, plucked the lute several times to create some sound waves.
Sound waves that had no form are covered with magical power and begin to take on some form.
The sound wave transformed into the shape of a bird and flew at full speed, taking down all the arrows.
Chomp!-
And then a bird reminiscent of an eagle quickly approached and bit off Endless’ head.
But Endless, who suffered no minor damage, stepped on the true awakening.
thud!-
Then, he assumes a posture that seems to be strengthening his spirit and releases black energy into the surrounding area.
The pose was like something a boy fighting manga protagonist would do, but the pattern was an ability that a villain would use.
“uh?”
“Suddenly my body…!”
Jenny and Ruska suddenly started getting sucked into the guy.
It’s a process of gathering back the black energy that was just released, and since we also have that energy in us, we are drawn to it.
As I happened to be in the lead, I was heavily exposed to that energy, so the pulling force was different.
“radon!”
At some point I ended up right in front of the guy’s nose.
And then I got caught by the guy’s tentacles again.
-You can’t run away now!
Then he takes out the arrow of nullification of regeneration.
A vicious pattern and strange ability that even nullifies the regeneration of the immortal Lyman.
That was the moment when he tried to stab me with it.
“There’s a lot you don’t know about me, huh?”
-what?
I know about the guy, but the guy doesn’t know about me.
As if asking what I was talking about, the guy stabbed the arrow into me.
Fujik!-
Something fell to the floor with a ripping sound.
The wrist of the guy holding the arrow rolled on the floor.
-uh?
“I told you, you don’t know about me.”
The guy’s wrist was cut off by a black snake that suddenly appeared.
Then a giant crow flew in like a bullet and tore the guy’s neck apart with its claws.
And then the purple dragon trampled him.
Although he suffered no physical harm, the guy was startled by the sudden intruder.
The three spirits that made a contract with me are now gathered in one place.
