Chapter 171 – Episode 162 – A Bizarre Human Octopus Playing With Its Prey (Revised Edition)
* Episode 162 – A bizarre human octopus playing with prey (revised edition)
At that moment, light flickers from Samuel’s back.
Just as he was about to reach out to the black box on his back and stab Roman with the holy object he took out from there, he couldn’t hold back and stretched out his hand his his his as well.
“Do you think you’ll get hit twice… You son of a bitch!!”
He had a premonition that something dangerous was about to happen, so he immediately fired part of his body his 〈 and his left arm 〉 towards the solar plexus. Samuel’s back his broke and he rolled backwards.
‘What is this bizarre?!’
The first raid was successful, but it failed at the most critical point. However, I could feel his tenacity in the way he stood up even while holding his stomach.
“Ugh… You… ! You’re doing something so unhuman… !!”
“Ha, haha, haha!! It hurt… You made me, a grown adult, feel so embarrassed… ! You made me scream like a child… !!”
He must have thought that it was a good thing that his body had been cut, so he moved as was. The cut bodies and their cross sections were connected with straw between them as a support and began to move as they were pleased.
‘Is this kid really human… ? ?! Anyway, this is so… !’
─It’s bizarre.
Cut, fill with straw, increase height and reach.
In addition to the body that had been torn apart by Ronan, he ripped off the arms and ankles, inserted straw between the sections, cut off the space between the thighs and groin and connected the straw, cut off the waist and upper body, and filled it with straw, covering everything from the fingers to the arms and entire body. As it was repeated, the corpse was transformed into a horror-like appearance, as if it were moving around on a wooden skewer.
‘That guy is doing something strange again!!’
‘Missing the first blow was a big mistake.’
Servilia and Ronan, who were clashing at the sight, also stopped for a moment and expressed goosebumps all over their bodies. Now that my body has been forcibly stretched like that, the length of my dick doesn’t matter. Anyone can see that it has become an ugly horror story, but in the end, it is a good change.
『Why are you so dazed… I wonder if he’s watching… ?!』
However, the voice was a bit stretched out, perhaps because the neck and body were cut in the middle and elongated.
“Kuh?!”
Wouldn’t a person who was thought to be dead come back to life? If they thought they were alive, wouldn’t they see it as an advantage and attack with their flesh less attached to each other? As Roman was rolling on the floor again after being hit by a terrifying rocket punch that flew into the solar plexus, Roman shook his extended neck and face, looking at the weakling. I glared at him displeasedly.
‘What did you just try to bring up… ?’
I said what I tried to take out in the first blow, during the attack, etc.
The moment he saw that, Roman’s whole body and talent as a curse forced a new curse to appear, as if warning him, “What you just did is dangerous,” And this is the result of accepting it.
‘This is a crazy person who caused such a major accident. They’re probably here because they’re convinced they can kill me, so they must have something. If Gabriel had joined… Is this like a secret weapon that Britannia is hiding?’
He is none other than a madman who has come to challenge him to a fight. She was sure she had something dangerous, but she looked at it strangely as she didn’t take it out again.
“You… Who are you… 』
So, wait and see first.
I widened my distance and waited until he stood up to ask a question. And sure enough, he shouted loudly.
“Ugh… My name is Samuel… ! I’m Isabel’s younger brother who died at your hands, and I’m a vengeful spirit who came to defeat you to avenge my sister!!!”
『Isabel…? Ah, the younger brother of that crazy saint… !』
“That’s right! My sister whom you defiled and insulted!! I need to let out that anger!!!”
“Indeed… You’re an assassin sent by Gabriel, so… Same with that monster that suddenly appeared… I plotted for revenge, that’s—!!』
As expected, he concludes that he is Gabriel’s swindler, just as he caught beforehand, and kicks the ground with the sole of his foot.
‘What else are you going to do-‘
Even before the words are finished, the attack continues with the sound of the floor being scraped. The tangled straw, like spears, pierced the ground and rose upward towards Samuel.
“Huh~?!”
『I never thought it would break into pieces this far… Because I don’t know… Thanks to this, it’s difficult to even talk… The reason why I stopped being human like this… This is my first time, you bastard… 』
‘You monster! If you think you accepted the surprise attack, this is it!!’
Suddenly the floor turned into a hell of thorns, and when I came to my senses, there was a considerable distance between me.
Even though the other person only said a light hello, his side his his his was pierced before he knew it, and he fell to one knee and broke out in a cold sweat.
“Ugh, ah, ugh~!!”
『Cut off the head in a surprise attack… Were you elated? ? It’s a shame… I… I’m not a superhuman enough to respond to a surprise attack… 』
‘Which mouth are you speaking with? This monster… !’
Immediately summon the spirit of light and borrow its power to begin healing the injured area. The spirit surrounded the wound and created a membrane, but the pain was accompanied by a tearing sound, so it did not heal as well as desired.
“After all, the curse is in the way!”
『Because you also tried to purify me with light… It’s natural that they are compatible with each other, you idiot!!!!』
─Bang, bang, bang, bang!
“Kuut?!”
He must have been so annoyed by the first surprise attack that he immediately fired the broken finger without waiting for it to recover. The tips of his nails are wrapped in sharp wood, and the fingers that rotate and fly are like bullets. However, his trajectory was straight and gentle, so I grabbed his side and threw him to the side, barely trying to avoid it.
“Keueuuu~?!”
Then he failed to avoid the straw that rose again, and her left shoulder was pierced and she rolled on the floor. The finger bullet that was fired as a substitute for his bullet she was recovered by pulling it because it was connected to each other.
Still, he didn’t die.
As a knight, he said it was not a fatal wound, and he was so fired up that he immediately took action to fight back.
“Eat this at least! Lumina Lumen!!”
─Fire!
『Ugh, follow me… !』
“… Just take a look!”
Since he had not yet lost his motivation her her, he grabbed the straw that pierced his her shoulder her her and purified it with the light he gathered in his palm her her and burned it . Roman also made a short sound of pain, and this time Samuel laughed and ran away.
‘You can’t attack head on. Fortunately, it seems to have slowed down as my body has grown… !’
He immediately joined forces with the spirit and temporarily completed the treatment, shouting to the sky.
“─Lumen!!”
『Uuuuu!!』
Shine light into the air and explode it like a flashbang, blinding Roman. It spreads immediately in that gap. The spirit summoned for recovery took on the appearance of Samuel and both of them circled around Roman at the same time.
『K-Are you going to fool your eyes with that?!』
Of course, Roman is not the only one to see this. My whole body is shaking. Moving like a gallows with a corpse hanging, he first extended his hand to Samuel, who was running towards him.
Ta-da-da-da-da-dang!!!
“Ugh?! Kihiaaaaa!!!!!”
And then the finger his shot again. The moment it was hit, the transformation was released and the spirit screamed. Samuel put his hand on his back and took out the holy relic.
『Fake?』
‘It’s too late to turn back with that body!!’
I told him I would stab him in the back like this and flew right behind Roman in one leap without even making a sound. And I saw it just before I reached it.
『… Hey.』
‘Snow?!’
The eyes are on the back.
To be exact, it is an awkward growth on the back of the head, which is cut off and shaking, on the neck.
『The main character of the animation I watched as a child said. ─I want eyes on your back!!!』
Probably didn’t mean it that way.
Ride once again towards Samuel floating in the air!!!
“Naaaaa aaaaahhh!!!!
I was filled with physiological disgust at the horror-like sight, but I turned my body as hard as I could to avoid the finger bullets, saying I would get hit if I didn’t move. As Samuel fell toward the floor, a thorn came out of the floor and aimed at his neck, but he blocked it with both hands in a sword-holding posture.
『Usually it’s called skewering… Are you an acrobat? 』
Roman was honestly impressed, but this side is desperate.
“Ugh, oh oh oh oh!!! Luu, mi, naaaaa!!! Lumeeeeenn!!!!”
Grrrr rrrr rrrr!
『Keuuk?!』
‘That… Go… ! Because the straws are connected to each other and heading towards the main body… ! So, he’s in pain too!!’
If that’s the case, then he grabbed the sharp straw extended to his throat with both hands and blocked it, shouting again.
“─Lumina·Lumen!!”
Grrrr!!!
『Eww?!』
‘… Also! It hurts as expected! But it’s not a fatal hit! Because the difference in skill between him and me is obvious!’
Roman is a witch doctor and Samuel is a knight of light, so it’s a matter of differences in their capabilities.
He expressed hope that if his skills had been a little better, he would have been able to set that body on fire.
‘Laughing?!’
As if piercing through that hope!!
“Gaheuuuuu!!”
When he stopped for a moment, the sole of his left foot was pierced by a five-pronged thorn, creating a hole.
『Just to make it sting… Are you going to laugh at me? ?』
“Hey, hey, you monster~?!”
Immediately activate purification magic to burn the thorns and recover. There won’t be a miracle of full recovery, but it’s enough treatment to escape with a limp. I was excited for a moment because I saw a chance of winning.
‘Damn, the floor that might break through at any moment and that weird finger burn… ‘ The floor is especially dangerous… !’
Samuel also placed his palms on the floor and used purification magic to respond to this incident.
Then I realized. Why isn’t that strange figure moving? The length of my legs has also increased so my dick no longer touches the floor. It’s not strange to move around, but the reason why I’m standing still so strangely.
‘The roots extending from my toes are spreading out to surround me… I guess that’s because I’m weak in interpersonal combat, so I don’t plan on letting anyone get close to me at all!!’
As soon as I realized the encirclement, thorns came out again, and the moment I pulled my waist back to avoid them, finger bullets were fired.
─Zbuk!
“Kaheuk?!”
『Is it the left hand this time? Tinkering with treatment… How long will this last? !』
Roman laughed, but Samuel desperately placed his palm on the straw thorns and shouted.
“Lumina · Lumen!!”
『Ugh!』
Burning again. This time, he committed it with enough force that he reached the siege net stretched out on the ground. Nevertheless, the feeling that new roots were growing and covering his surroundings continued, but he decided that this was enough for now.
‘You never know when you’ll see through the floor and your fingers… The roots at the bottom are long enough not to touch the main body… However, the straw connected to the finger is connected to the main body in A straight line… !!’
『I would have said it stings!!』
‘… Now is the time!’
Roman’s fingers were his, unable to control his anger for a moment, turned into bullets again and aimed at Samuel, and he pretended to hold his injured side and took out the holy object hidden on his back.
‘What I’m aiming for is the straw connected between my finger and the main body! Unlike the roots, if it is connected deeply, the body will not be able to avoid fatal injuries when hit by this!’
He swung the weapon entrusted to him by the Black Bishop without hesitation, intending that if he shot his finger his, he would cut it straight and hit the body.
‘This is the messenger of hell who will take you to the underworld!!’
Isabel was deployed during the war against satisfaction. A kind of artifact that was thrown away because her body was so uncoordinated that even if she stayed still, it would collapse. A sacred object that contains the power of the Great Spirit of Light and will inflict fatal damage on anyone associated with darkness…
Swinging her “Isabel’s ribs”, She slashed at her fingers flying towards her.
Teeeeeing!!!
‘You got it right!’
It’s not something that needs to be sharpened with a whetstone or anything, so it’s literally just a regular rib bone. Nevertheless, the sacred power contained there flowed directly into Roman’s her finger her bullet her, injecting its own power her and starting to swell the finger that was hit by her.
『What did you do… !』
“Reach to the main body! This is the end of Roman Cornelius!”
『Mutt?!』
Cluck, cluck, cluck!!
A finger bullet inflated like a balloon.
And——Pow! It exploded and pieces of flesh flew out.
‘With this, Cornelius… !’
Just by looking at the burst finger, you can see the destructive power of the Great Spirit of Light. It was clear that Roman’s body was unable to withstand the holy power overflowing from those fluttering fingers.
Now, if the power of light passes through the torn finger, climbs the straw connected there, and reaches Roman, the main body, that’s it.
… It had to be the end.
『… 』
“… Ugh?!”
But there is no response.
My finger exploded, and the straw connected to it also exploded one after another! Pop! Pop! It’s exploding, but Roman doesn’t move.
“Why?! How could you scream even when your throat was cut!!”
『Look closely… 』
As if answering this, Roman held up his severed finger.
The straw is not connected. Instead, the flesh swelled beyond the cleanly cut cross section and new fingers grew again.
‘No way.’
When she looked at the place where she had almost been stabbed to death earlier, she saw that there was also an unrecovered finger rolling on the floor.
This is probably my second time fishing. Only then did I realize that I had been deceived, but it was too late to react.
Tzuok on the back and at the feet! And his thigh was pierced.
“Aaaaa!!!!!”
『I must have suffered this many times… She said she thought she noticed. Oh… 』
He laughed, saying that the finger he shot this time was not connected to the main body his, squeezing and unfolding the new finger his.
At the same time, he recovered her roots and gradually shrunk her body. It had a strange appearance at first, but it gradually regained its original appearance.
“I have several long-distance attack methods, such as hesitation. That guy is not stupid and would not intentionally extend his body to attack.”
“Huh, wow?!”
“He was acting strange a while ago, so I thought he might be looking for a comeback, so I tried to catch him, and of course… I took out such a hideous object, right-!”
Then, he ran as fast as he could and cut Samuel with his entire right hand using a blade made of straw, just as he had done the first time.
“Ahhhhh!
Isabel’s ribs were eventually released from his hands. Samuel was screaming and bleeding, losing his right arm.
“It’s dangerous, it’s dangerous. From the opening of the event, your body will be split apart, and ugly things like that will be brought out to kill you at the first moment. It’s cheating to bring such an instant death item on normal difficulty. ..I was really scared? Thanks to you, I learned this ugly curse. If you say it the other way around, it would be proof that it was that dangerous. I wonder what would have happened if you got hit. … Perpena, too. How sincere were you to not tell me about this and ignore it?”
“Eeeee eeeee eeeee
Even as Samuel was clutching his wounds and screaming, he fanned his head, saying he was really scared. The shaking of his legs is truly the epitome of a coward. Since Roman was no different from an ordinary person with powers, I really didn’t like this situation in itself, where there was a risk of instant death through life savings.
“Keuhiiiiik!! Ugh, ohaiik!! Loo… Muahaaaaan… !”
In the midst of this fever, Samuel crawled over, grabbed the sole of his foot with his free hand, and cried out.
“Lumina… Luuuuu of of… !!”
“It’s that again.”
Grumbling!!
Roman’s feet catch fire, but there is no reaction.
That’s right, because all the pain is acting.
“I still have stock left, so I won’t even get scratched by something like that. I’m passing the pain on to the death row inmates who were with me. Do you understand? Do you understand? No, even if you don’t know, give up and die!!”
“Khaaaaa aaaaa aaaaah of of of the!!!)?
As a finishing touch, I lifted one of his feet to crush his head.
Then Samuel also stretches his remaining arm forward and shouts.
“───!!”
This sends a chill down my back. Should I say that areas where no hair has even grown stand up?
“You know this is a boy’s cartoon?!”
So, when I hurriedly turned around, the arm that had been slashed was holding Isabel’s ribs and spinning like a boomerang.
A little late to react! His side she was cut, but of course it was not a fatal wound.
Whether it was Samuel’s power or Isabel’s will, the blood ties joined forces to pinpoint Roman, but in the end, this was the limit.
“Ouch, follow me~?!”
“Jeezgiil… I’m lying down… I’m sorry… I’m sorry… Daaaaagh… !!”
I was able to get a scratch at the end, but that was it.
Hemorrhagic death.
It was a meaningless death considering that he had rushed in with such vigor.
“Oh, this is the end? …No? There are still 2 pages left? Do people die just because they are cut and pierced? Get up quickly. Show me the next one, quickly.”
“… “
But it doesn’t move.
It’s a cold, bloodless corpse, and there’s no sudden resurrection like in shonen cartoons.
“Roman!!”
“You’re yelling again! Every time you fucking scream my name, I’m getting cut off somewhere, so stop calling me that!!”
Sure enough, right after Servilia’s cry her, the blade flies towards her throat her her her her.
This time, after skillfully striking it away, he turned his attention to Ronan, who had struck it instead of the dead Samuel.
