Chapter 101 – Breath!! Avoid!! (One)
“Luke, even though we don’t get along very well, I believe you’re not so ignorant that you’re arguing about it now. The important thing right now is how to stop that immortal dragon.”
“…Okay. By the way, is there any way to stop that huge monster?”
“Yeah, that’s what I wanted to ask too. I couldn’t bear to kill him and sealed him away, so how the heck are you going to defeat him?”
The strongest person in the world, the main character of the play, and the inner helper who knows the behind-the-scenes of the play have gathered together. This time, even if you really want to fail, you can’t fail. I caught my breath and slowly explained my plan to the two of them.
“First of all… I’ll start by distributing the roles. Selena, you should protect yourself and Luke with holy magic, or keep the immortal dragon in check with a ranged attack from time to time. Luke, while gathering your holy power, you wait for an opportunity and then you are attacked by Selena. When the immortal dragon shows an empty gap, give him a big blow.”
“What are you going to do?”
“In the first place, I am immune to non-divine attacks. But at the same time, the power I wield originally came from the immortal dragon, so I cannot damage the immortal dragon with my own power. There’s no problem with anything. So, Selena, I’ll take care of cleaning up the monsters that appear when you attack the immortal dragon.”
“How are you going to organize all of that by yourself?”
Instead of answering, I stretched out my hand and pointed at the ‘black army’ behind my back.
If I am immune to all non-divine attacks, this ‘black army’ has very high resistance, if not immunity. In addition, those who are killed by the ‘black army’ become the ‘black army’ over time. Until a moment ago, there was a limit to increasing the number due to lack of space, but now that the immortal dragon has started to move in earnest, the insufficient space will soon be created. There are a lot of guys who haven’t been raised yet, so even if the majority of the ‘black army’ is wiped out by the immortal dragon, it’s enough to replenish by raising the ones prepared in advance.
“I’ll take care of the mobs and take command from the rear. You guys just have to attack the immortal dragon accordingly.”
“Well… Okay. First of all, there won’t be anyone here who knows the situation better than you, so I’ll suit your plan especially this time.”
“…Okay. In order to prevent that heinous disaster, I will borrow your help this time.”
“Okay then… Time for the immortal dragon three-man raid.”
Until now, Luke, the brave man, had hardly ever used his full power as he had to adjust his strength appropriately so that he would not lose his fighting spirit. In the first place, things didn’t turn out that well. But now there is no time to relax. If you don’t fight with all your might… This story will reach a bad end straight away. To stop it… I gritted my teeth and drew up the power of darkness from the shard necklace around my neck and from the gift given by the foreign press.
“Haaaaa…!”
After taking a deep breath and gathering all your strength…
[My army, wake up!!]
With a roaring cry, release that power.
The corpses that had lost their lives at the hands of the ‘black army’ and turned black strewn on the floor wriggled in response to the eerie waves of darkness that spread all over the body and gave goosebumps. Eventually, the remains of the dead monsters rose up one by one, and the power of darkness, which had spread like fog, wrapped around the resurrected corpses and armed them with soldiers clad in turbid black armor.
“Large-scale wide-area necromantic… In addition to that, several layers of hard-to-interpret magic such as body strengthening, external armament, and infection are applied to the change of nature.”
“Sweep it out!”
At my command, the ‘Black Army’ went into action. In line with that movement, Luke and Selena also began to run towards the immortal dragon with holy power wrapped around their bodies.
The battle for the fate of this world, which had begun so suddenly, finally began in earnest.
*
“The tail is coming! Head down!”
“Uh, uh…?!”
“I told you to keep your head down, you idiot!”
Kwa-ang! With an impact that shook the ground, the hero’s body flew backwards with a jerk. I didn’t even get hurt thanks to the thickly wrapped body with overflowing divine power, but my blood pressure rose sharply at the hero’s trolling, which missed the timing to deliver the fatal blow to the immortal dragon three times.
“Breath!! Avoid it!!”
“Uh, uh…!”
“Oh, Mr..!”
Whoops!
From the immortal dragon’s mouth erupted the same red beam that had previously wiped out a mountain in an instant. Well, I was able to avoid it by covering my body with darkness and sinking into the floor… But that brash warrior is getting hit again. Besides, that guy just now was obviously out of breath range, but he stepped into the range with his foot and got hit. It was an attack that wouldn’t hit even if you were standing still, but you didn’t even check where it was coming from, you moved aimlessly, got hit by the breath, and then went out and fell!
Selena has been dodging well so far, but this time she was exquisitely swept away by the immortal dragon’s breath, so she assumes that it could be… Luke, that bastard is not. To the extent that I wonder if it is part of it, I miss the timing of the deal by hitting all the attacks really exquisitely.
When I swing my arms or tail, I move in the same direction, not the opposite direction, so I get hit, when I fire my breath, I move without looking at where I’m shooting, then I go into the breath range with my feet and get swept away, and I’ve said many times that I’m in charge of all the trash mobs. But the immortal dragon focused its attention on the summoning monster in the middle and missed the timing of the attack…
It was literally the 1st rank member to be expelled from the engineering college itself.
The sub-dealer/supporter, miscellaneous mob handling, and raid leader are doing well, but the raid is not progressing because the most important main dealer is hitting the pattern instead of putting in a deal.
Still, since I had received the divine power of another god, I expected that it would be enough for one person, but that was a big mistake on my part. It’s overflowing with divine power like that, but it just hurts a little less, but I can only use it.
“Ah, ohhh! You damned warrior!!”
“Oh, I’m doing great!”
“Not you, ja!! I’m talking ja!!”
I’d be really excited
It’s a lot of trouble just to deal with the monsters by controlling the ‘black army’ while avoiding all the attacks of the immortal dragon with ‘Darkness’, but to have to give orders to two warriors…
At least Selena had fought the immortal dragon fiercely before, so even if I couldn’t give an order, she would act just fine on her own, but Luke wasn’t at all. Even if I give an order, he’s the one who doesn’t listen well, so if I’m in a situation where I can’t give an order because I’m avoiding an attack, I’ll just get hit and fly away.
…Coming to think of it, whether or not you gave an order, this stupid hero is just getting hit?
Even if I explained where the attack came from and how to avoid it, when the attack came, I was hit and flew away. I’d rather be hit like that and searched quickly… No, anyway, because of the overflowing divine power, no matter how many times I get hit, I can’t even get a scratch on my body, let alone a wound, but I can’t put in the deal that the man called the main dealer asks me to put in, and I’m stuck in a pattern called a pattern. Being caught, is there any place for this damn fight to end?
“Hey, Selena.”
“…Yes.”
“Since it seems like this will never end, it’s a change of strategy.”
Originally, I deal with trash mobs, Selena checks and assists, and Luke is the main deal… But if one guy can’t serve 1 person, the two of us have no choice but to do 1.5 servings.
“The black army changes to autonomous action. It may miss a few monsters, but for now, it’s the priority to deal with the main body. First of all…”
I continued talking while looking up at the demonic dragon flying high in the sky flapping its huge wings.
“I’ll have to drop that.”
“However, since his regenerative power is so high and monsters appear every time he gets hurt, I have to attack both sides of his wings at the same time to knock him down at once. I need some of this…”
“You take the left wing. I take the right wing.”
“What? You said that your attack didn’t work on him until just a moment ago?”
“It’s like that. It’s complicated to explain, but for now, just follow me.”
“…Okay. I’ll try this one more time.”
“Luke, get ready too! We’ll create a chance for you, so take care of everything else and prepare a shot for the immortal dragon!”
“Oh, I see!”
Selena began to gather her divine power again. Thanks to Luke receiving power from other gods, she suddenly ranked second in terms of the total amount of her divine power, but she was still superior to anyone else in terms of power and utilization of her divine power. The dazzling lights that leaked from Selena’s chest spun around her and began to take on the shape of weapons one by one. Axes, spears, swords, daggers, swords, hammers, daggers…
The ten weapons of light thus completed. One by one, the divine power contained in each one was so thick and intense that I could ride the Jordan River Express just by brushing against it. Seeing that, Luke and I started getting ready.
The holy power of the two different gods mixed into Luke’s holy sword, and a fierce spiral of light that seemed to pierce the sky began to arise.
And I… I gathered the thick darkness in my hand.
The power I have is the power of darkness. Its main use is the Whisper of Corruption, which affects the opponent’s mind more than the body. However, as I had shown before Luke, I was able to convert the dark magic into holy power. Of course, I can’t keep the attack made like that for long because it’s damaging to myself just by maintaining it…
Divine power is an authority that a god temporarily lends to believers who believe in him. And the power of God comes from faith in God… A heart that believes in God. That’s why, usually, the greater your faith, the more holy power you can handle.
But I was an atheist in my previous life, and I am not a very staunch believer now. Why can I handle divine power? It’s very simple.
Faith is belief in God. To be precise, it is the mind that believes in the existence of God.
In that sense, I am the greatest believer in this world. Because he had met the Luminous Goddess in person, his belief in her existence was stronger than anyone else’s.
Divine power is the power that a believer borrows from the power of a god. In theory, I am also a believer in the goddess Luminus, so there is no problem in borrowing her divine power. Yes, in theory.
First of all, it raises the magical power of darkness and reduces it to divine power. It sounds simple in words, but in reality it is not. You have to understand how to operate the two powers of different systems, magic and divine power, and you have to learn it with your body senses, not just with your head as knowledge. If combining divine power and magic was that simple, Selena would have to give up the title of sole user of divine magic. Even handling divine power like magic is so difficult, but it couldn’t be easier to convert magic into divine power.
The clay lance that had been completed in my hand gradually began to deform. The ghastly protruding spear blades gave goosebumps to all who saw them, and split into three branches, completing a trident made of dazzling light. However, while Selena’s weapon, which was made of pure divine power, was brilliantly golden, the weapon I made had a subtle silvery color.
Chiyiyi profit…!
As my body is almost immune to attacks other than divine power, it is very vulnerable to divine power. And being vulnerable to divine power includes what I deal with. Smoke rises with a burning sound from the hand holding the silver trident… But it’s not yet time to throw it. Selena and I are ready, but the hero isn’t ready yet. If you rush and miss the timing again, you never know when the immortal dragon will give you another chance to attack.
“Hey, kid…! How long will you make me wait!”
“Hurry up, Luke. My hand hurts.”
“Joe, just a little more…!”
The spiral of light created by the sword in Luke’s hand gradually grows faster and stronger. However, compared to the spear in my hand and the ten types of weapons floating around Selena, its power is still far too weak. If we don’t prepare soon, the immortal dragon will blow us all away with its breath, but the hero was seldom able to handle the divine power well.
Well, the divine power that dwells in his body is of a different type from the one he originally used, so he won’t be used to it, and it would be quite difficult to gather the powers of two different gods. But… Now is not the time to consider such circumstances. Even if you can’t do it, it’s a time when you have to do it somehow with evil.
I saw the sword in Luke’s hand. As expected, that idiot Luke was trying to unite the powers of two different gods. That’s why it’s a problem If you can easily compare what he is doing now, it is no different than trying to put two magnets with the same poles together. If he raises his spiral power by using that repulsive characteristic, his power and penetrating power will increase, but since he still has a very low level of divine power proficiency, he can’t come up with such an idea.
And it takes too long to explain this one by one, and it’s unclear whether that warrior can understand it. Damn it, that hero is the problem again! While my hands were burning, I thought about how to fly. Because there is no fear or hesitation, I made the most of my cool head in any crisis, and I thought in my head how to attack the immortal dragon in such a bursting situation. If it’s hard to explain in words to that stupid hero…
“Damn it, Selena! Throw it at once!”
“What? But the baby boy isn’t ready yet…”
“Throw it at once!!”
“…Eh, I don’t know!”
Selena waved her hand vigorously, and the ten weapons spinning around her fired in unison at the immortal dragon’s left wing. In line with that, I threw the spear of hot light I was holding in my hand toward the demon dragon’s right wing.
Selena/Divine Magic – Ten Thousand Stars
Ragna Armageddon / Phantasm – Argent Sacred Trident
Kwajijik, Perbung! Kwaaang!
[Kuaaaaa!!]
Ten streaks of golden light first pierced the skin of the left wing, followed by a streak of silver light that extinguished the bone of the other wing. In an instant, the immortal dragon with both wings broken crashed to the ground…
“Baron Ragna Armageddon, wait…!”
“Shut up, leave it to me for now!”
As soon as I threw the spear, I went up to Luke and grabbed the remaining part of the hilt of his dagger with my still unhealed hand. The weapon that mixed the two types of divine power was fatal to me to the extent that it could not be compared to the similar divine power I made. Suppressing the pain of my hand burning in an instant, I quietly sighed.
“Do not ignorantly gather in one place, but use the forces that are trying to separate from each other to increase the rotational force.
“…!”
Luke was surprised for a moment and began to apply his divine power in response to my magic manipulation. As expected, rather than explaining in words, you will understand faster if you make me feel it with magic like this. When the divine powers, which had fallen in power as the repulsive force arose from trying to combine them unreasonably, began to rotate with the power to push each other without uniting, the power doubled. Yeah, that’s enough…
“Now, throw it out. Don’t swing it. Focus on one point and stab it.”
Enough to pierce the weakness of that immortal demon dragon.
Cracks in the chest. Among the wounds from Selena’s previous wounds, the only one that hasn’t healed is the Immortal Dragon’s weakness. It’s difficult to pierce those thick scales with Luke’s power, but if Luke’s full-strength attack lands on the chest where his flesh is exposed due to the scars Selena inflicted… If you are defenseless and unable to defend against our attack…
“…Haaaaa!”
From the three swords raised by the hero, the holy power that burns orange and the holy power that shimmers in gold is fired while rotating…
Eventually, the spiral flash of the two divine powers blended directly into the only weakness engraved in the immortal demon dragon’s body.
The hero’s strike hit the dragon’s chest, and a flash of light exploded and a cloud of sand rose up. It was the only one that was not covered with strong scales, so it was the greatest blow that poured all the holy power of the hero into the part where the defense was 0. Although Luke is an unprepared warrior, he is still the most qualified as the main character, so even if he can’t completely kill the immortal dragon with this blow, he will be able to put him out of action for quite some time.
And I’m afraid to judge…
“…Have you done it?”
“Hey, fuck this…”
Our clumsy warrior has memorized a resurrection spell.
[Kuaaaaa!!]
…Sitpal of life.
