Chapter 247 – The Road to the Heart (4)
Hot breaths and tongues go back and forth in each other’s mouths and become entangled.
The moment our lips touched each other, the sensation that seemed to burn all the nerves in our body subsided, and the eyes that had been covered by it gradually opened.
Clumsy mouth and tongue movements.
“Ha ha… , Ha… , Wh… , How… !”
But it’s really strange.
This sloppy kiss is more thrilling than any kiss we’ve ever shared.
Is it because of the situation in front of death?
Or not… , Is it because of the sense of immorality that comes from kissing a woman who was his sister-in-law in the past?
When you’re lost in the confusion that digs as deeply as the thrill you felt for the first time.
[User ‘Han Joo-yeon”s sub-attribute ‘Innocent Sacrifice’ is activated.]
[All stats are doubled for 5 minutes.]
[Time remaining: 04:59]
The message window that appeared in front of me disturbed my eyes.
A feeling of exhilaration all over the body.
And the face of Joo-yeon, who had been charging without hesitation, stepped back and her lips fell.
“Ha… !”
“After.”
By the time the long thread stretched out between short sighs, it snapped and fell.
“Main… , No, sir.”
When she puts her current relationship in her mouth instead of addressing her, he smiles shyly and shakes her head.
“Don’t ask anything now.”
Then, it points to the disconnected wall.
There, the Kraken replica was beating the walls with its four pairs of arms swinging like whips.
Being in an isolated space, it seems that even the loud sound of knocking on the wall is not transmitted.
What… , I might not have known it even if it wasn’t like that.
“Is that possible now?”
Han Joo-yeon asks me with a shy smile.
As I clench and open her fists, I gauge the boiling power.
Enough of this… , I wonder if it will be about Son Si-woo in his early 30s.
Their abilities are on the same level, but they are probably stronger than before.
Unlike the time when it was still technically incomplete, more experience was accumulated and the body was younger.
[Time remaining: 04:45]
After checking her remaining time, she nods her head confidently while looking at Juyeon.
“Stay back.”
“You shouldn’t get hurt… ?”
While slowly backing away, I shout at the guy who is full of my worries.
“Maybe that won’t happen?”
If my guess is right… , You won’t get hurt.
Maybe.
As long as it has fraudulent abilities, the short-duration wall of severance gradually disappears.
“Cucka caca cac!”
A guy who bursts out a roar of joy or anger at the enemy he finally greets again.
“Yeah, nice to meet you too.”
He pulled out the sword he was wearing around his waist and accumulated mana in layers.
A black aura shaped over the sword burns like a flame.
“… Black?”
The color of the changed aura catches the eye.
Obviously, when it was Son Siwoo, it was blue.
What… , It is not strange that the color of the aura changes as much as the body has changed.
However, black itself was a color that no one had ever smoked, so it was just amazing.
I’ll try to find out about this later.
“Kaaak-!”
A guy who rushed at me with a wild roar with a mouth that was torn so long that it almost reached the back of his neck.
In case someone isn’t a squid, the four pairs of arms, excluding the legs that are standing on the ground, are extended and bent, aiming at this side from all directions.
It’s a fairly dangerous and tricky attack to avoid, though.
Spatula
“Tada, we can just cut them all like this.”
Of course, this isn’t easy either.
You have to prioritize what to cut off from the tentacles flying in all directions, and you also need the speed and power to cut them all without an error.
The severed tentacles fluttered on the wriggling flesh wall.
“Keii… !”
A clone of the Kraken that regenerates a severed arm and emits low rage.
Every time your emotions change, the three hearts hanging from your chest start beating faster.
It releases and circulates a lot of mana faster than that.
The body supplied with so much magic attribute accelerates further.
Pudeuk
Kwaaang-!
Just by kicking off the ground with thick muscles and loosely woven feet, an enormous pangong sound was heard.
One, no, two orders of magnitude faster than me, whose stats had doubled.
“Size Geek-!”
A feast of tentacles that takes your breath away just by looking at them.
Hundreds of afterimages and entities add up to the point where you feel stuffiness as if you are trapped in a wall that is completely blocked in all directions.
No need to panic.
It is only the eyes that feel helpless here.
From the sensation that touches the skin, the strong smell felt from the substance, to the eerie noise that penetrates the ear.
There are several other means besides the eyes to distinguish the real from the fake and destroy it.
The time for a counterattack comes the moment you evade an attack that you made up your mind to do.
The amount of magical energy seething inside her body is unusual.
Where once lightly.
「Fire Rain.」
It attracts the surrounding magic power and pours down a rain of flames that are clumped together.
Hwareuk!
Chi profit… !
High-level magic that surpasses the power of the intermediate magic ‘Fire Spear’ with one shot and one shot is easily demonstrated.
As if the existing wizards divided the grades into basic, beginner, intermediate, and advanced in order, there was no limit to me, so naturally.
“Kahiah-!”
A Kraken replica that stretches out tentacles that are charred by fire.
But nothing touches my body.
No, I can’t reach it that way.
“It’s only when it’s so obvious, Won…”
His body, compressed as if ignoring the laws of physics, is literally at the level of a monster.
His abilities are also several times ahead of me, who has been doubled with an unknown ‘sacrifice of innocence’.
Even so, the reason why I can easily evade his attacks is because he is honest.
“The hardware is good, but the software is too laggy.”
There really isn’t enough brain to handle a monster-like body.
I have absolutely no idea how to handle that body to use it to its limit.
As it were… , Okay.
“그놈이랑 수준이 딱 맞네, 응.”
An idiot who obtained an unprecedented SSS-level characteristic called ‘equivalent exchange’ and only gained through it was the body of a middle-aged man.
It’s similar to teasing your dick without knowing how great the thing you’re holding is.
개탄스럽기 그지없는 멍청함.
그러나 이들을 욕하고 싶지는 않다.
Thanks to these two idiots, I’m getting a lot of gain without losing a single thing, right?
[남은 시간: 02:30]
Checking the remaining time with a sidelong glance, he rapidly raised his mana.
The leeway regained, the dominance obtained through the increased mana.
Two things break the mold in my head.
Breaking away from one fixed form and linear flow, I step into a more creative realm.
Eventually, what was created was nothing but a huge bird.
「Frozen Bird.」
A transparent bird carved from pure white ice that scatters snowflakes profusely whenever it flaps its wings in the air.
Even though it is made of solid ice, its movement is absolutely free.
And that freedom began to terribly torment the Kraken clone.
Pie!
Our bird swims in the air, even screaming at the theme of a sculpture born from magic.
No, when I say a bird, it seems a bit disinterested…
“그래, 빙닭이가 좋겠다.”
It’s perfect because there’s even something similar to chicken combs attached to the head.
As the fluttering wings are directed towards the Kraken clone, a tremendous blizzard rages towards it.
Whoops-!
Whoo-!
Snowflakes blowing in the strong wind cover the four pairs of arms that cover the whole body.
Pie!
“…”
Somehow, screaming at that seems to be protesting that I don’t like the name… , Isn’t it?
Bing Chicken rushes towards the guy who has a solid guard.
The moment the long beak touches it, it flies so fast that it leaves a deep afterimage wherever it passes.
Jjoong-!
Along with a clear, sharp noise like glass breaking, Bingdak’s whole body becomes a sharp dagger and is pierced all over his body.
Fufufufu!
Pooh-!
“Scent… , The power is good.”
As if he had gained free will, he could freely fly and spray wind, and finally self-destruct.
Its body is so tattered that it is hard to believe that it was created by only one bird.
Of course, thanks to his monstrous regenerative powers, he quickly recovers.
“That’s not bad either.”
Regeneration is not a power obtained without a price.
In fact, whenever his body returns to its original state, the amount of magic generated from his heart is greatly reduced.
It must have taken up a lot of mana to regenerate the body.
Just as you can’t draw water if you throw a bucket into a dried-up well, that guy’s pumping isn’t the same either.
“Kkkk” !”
Anger like laughter resounds bleakly.
At the same time, he looks this way and curls four pairs of arms and throws them in front of my body.
The moment I wondered what it was doing, the three hearts started emitting tremendous magic power.
Kwaaaaah-!
The blue mana that pours down like a waterfall gathers at a single point pointed by the eight curled tentacles.
Its shape is reminiscent of the breath that the Kraken absorbs the magic of the sea and pours it out at once.
No, it’s Bruce.
“… Are you shooting it from yourself?”
This is an unexpected variable.
Immediately, a huge bolt of lightning falls on the guy’s head.
“Giga Lightning.”
The mana required for advanced magic was thrust into a single bolt of lightning, and the magic for killing people fell on the top of his head.
Quarreung-!
A flashing light and a loud roar.
Even when his body was burnt to black, his eyes were still staring at us, and the mana at the tips of his tentacles was steadily increasing in size.
“…”
An imminent situation.
Where the hell is that huge magic power coming from?
The moment I gazed at the three hearts with doubts, I finally began to see them.
Where is the guy’s mana constantly being supplied?
“… Was this the whole body?”
The correct answer was the Kraken’s massive body.
The Kraken devours the magic around it from the outside.
It was a way for the clone body to absorb the mana that had accumulated in the body through the heart.
Pounding! Pounding! Throbbing!
That look looks familiar somewhere.
Watching the heart greedily sucking mana, a strange sense of deja vu is seized.
The driving method is a little different, but the shape of absorbing mana is definitely…
“… Are you like me?”
It is similar to me in the past, when I used the lost ‘magic absorption’ as I gained characteristics and evolved.
Suddenly, an absurd thought runs through my head.
That mana that is constantly being sucked from the gigantic body… , Can I put a straw in too?
A message window immediately informed me of the answer.
[The sub-concept ‘Eater’ is unlocked by satisfying the conditions for using the ability.]
It’s done
