Chapter 301 – Great Madness (13)
No fuck, why are you out there?
I forgot that I was fighting a really unimaginable identity and my head went blank for a moment.
Really why? Is this because it’s a dream?
No, nonsense.
Even in a dream, I hold on to my reason. There had been a few times before that beings I knew would pop up in my dreams in a stream of consciousness, but now it wasn’t like that.
Even Professor Slayer? Isn’t this guy a fantasy being dwelling in my neurons!
I hadn’t thought deeply about it, but I was casually dismissing this white shadow as being born from the madness of beast return.
Beast Return makes it difficult to control the user’s rage and the resulting madness.
There were signs from before.
The first time I noticed the side effect was when I saw Tirsi stealing the thesis right in front of my eyes.
From then on, I felt the beast return feed on my rage, and saw the first white sparks shoot from my head when my thesis was attacked by the bandits.
And it was sublimated into a being called Professor Slayer, who spits out my anger instead of me.
That’s why I regarded this guy as a fantasy that only appears when I’m schizophrenic.
Perhaps there is no doubt about that.
The existence called Professor Slayer was a simple fantasy character in which my anger was embodied. Than fifty five hundred with the imaginary friends that children make when they are young.
So now, someone intervened in my dream by borrowing the frame of a ‘character’ called Professor Slayer.
Thinking that far, I noticed who it was.
“… Odin?”
Without answering my question, the shadow disappeared as if it had exhausted itself.
Did that stop me from using the rampage mod? But damn, then how are you telling me to beat that?
Oh oh oh… !!
I didn’t like being so bruised.
It was a short waste of time, maybe 5 seconds, but in a master’s fight, 5 seconds is enough time to search 2 or 3 times. The old man took my mana and built a spell.
─Tick, tick tick!
The bridle of low-level magic was meaningless. The illusion of a carnivorous dinosaur tied up with a stapler and scotch tape to wake up!
That professor magician was preparing a big skill with my simple magic knowledge and mana!
“Mr. Amy… !!”
Fucked! All the remaining mana was lost while I was blank!
When I tried to transform now, there was no answer. What am I supposed to say when I don’t have mana!
If you don’t want to fall behind, you have no choice but to dodge!
“It’s a crack, it’s a crack!”
It was when I tried to press the emergency escape button, even though it was in a dream, not wanting to be left behind. Suddenly feeling a foreign body in my arms, I took it out.
What was caught in his hand was the ogre’s seal.
I had no idea why I was here. It was thanks to the pink mana rising from there.
‘… Lalilula!’
The guy who was watching me saw his wives awake and gave them the seal.
Maybe because my mana was steadily decreasing without me waking up, he gave me the royal seal and gave me mana-artificial respiration. When it comes to wit in an emergency, even Lalilura competes for first place at a party.
Paah-!
Enormous mana bloomed from the seal.
It’s not just Lalilura. Even our wives put mana into the seal. I used the two seconds left until the old man’s formula was built, thinking about it.
‘… If it’s this, it’s worth rubbing!’
And at the end of that trouble, I saw the victory.
─Tah!
I ran as hard as I could while absorbing the mana of the Seal of the Seal.
A storm was raging where the old man was. Wind spinning like a typhoon! I know what magic is. Damn, someone has to spin a windmill like that to use that!
“You son of a thief——!!”
The legs reinforced by Beast Return accelerated. I poured mana into my fist.
The storm gathers as the old man raises his staff.
Even if my feet were fast, the distance was too far. If this is the case, the magic will explode before my fist can reach it.
Still, I gritted my teeth and ran, and in return I had to watch the storm erupt right in front of my nose.
If they collided like this, it would only be a matter of time before they could turn into Nord Tangtangs in a blender even if they raised their magic resistance with runes. If the output of the attack magic was higher than the rune’s magic damage reduction, it would fall behind.
So I didn’t dodge or block it.
“Mirror Dimensions.”
Instead, the landscape was ‘rotated’ 360 degrees around the direction from which the storm was blowing.
Cloud’s scaffolding moved my body at super high speed, as if I was riding on a disco fanfang. With the ability to manipulate dreams, he got out of the attack range of the storm in the blink of an eye.
‘If the environment around me moves as I please, there’s no reason not to use it!’
It cannot be used for attack, but it can be used for movement. It is a foul that takes advantage of the uniqueness of the battle place called the dream.
Anyway, that fucker stole other people’s mana, so it’s me and that guy again and again!
“He who controls the sky controls the battlefield!!”
While reciting the wisdom of scholars, he landed an uppercut on the old man’s jaw. Of course, the old man tried to defend himself with magic, but it was useless.
─Suddenly!
Even when the old man swung his staff, the magic did not manifest. It has to be.
Right now, I’ve left very little of my mana and put all of it into the seal.
A momentary gap that could have been created only because of the seal!
I was on the verge of fainting due to the mana being sucked out by the old man’s magic spell, but I gritted my teeth. The opponent might also be a Mage of Strength, but at this moment, I took the lead.
When my fist hit the old man’s chin with a gap, I released mana in less than a second.
A serious punch that could even scrap a dump truck hit the macho old man’s jaw. If the maximum mana is equal, it is impossible to create an output defensive technique that blocks the full power of Beast Return in 1 second.
The old man’s head bounced, revealing his face.
His face was a black, chaotic darkness, and in the center of it was the glimmer of a single eye.
The eyes of the goddess Odin that I saw were the opposite eyes.
Kwaaaaang—!!
And, the fist containing the dragon power of the earth warrior scattered and shattered the head of the nightmare.
***
After exploding the head of the nightmare, I rolled around like a doll with threads unraveled.
“Ouch, haha…”
It seemed that excessive mana management had inflicted internal injuries.
It might be psychologically damaging, but thanks to that, even though it was a dream, it gave me a bone pain. It was only after I had clearly seen the nightmare old man fade and disappear that I relaxed and lay down.
“… Shit, what the hell is this?”
From beginning to end, it is full of unknown work.
Why did I suddenly have to fight Gandalf in another world, or why Odin, who borrowed the appearance of a professor slayer, stopped me, all of which I do not know.
I came to teach Veronica how to fly and fly to Romania, but it happened like this.
‘First of all, I think it was Odin’s alter ego that stopped me.’
He must have borrowed the appearance of Professor Slayer, just as he borrowed his mother’s appearance before. In that situation, Odin’s alter ego had no characters to intervene, so that makes sense.
But damn, then why did Ji set up a space like this and hold me back?
Just thinking about cancer, there were two possibilities.
Or were you trying to stop me from running amok.
“… Wasn’t this space itself Odin’s will?”
Maybe it’s both.
No matter how much I thought about it, I gave up thinking about it because I was tired of things that didn’t come out with an answer. This fucking world is still unkind today.
It was then. I caught my breath when I saw an unprecedented white sun floating in the sky. It is the old mana that I have saved up, which I often see in my inner world.
“Anyway, you bastard. It grows bigger every time I see it.”
It grew slightly larger than the last time I searched through Yerna’s memories.
As I muttered, I looked at the sun, which was not dazzling, and saw something falling down from there.
‘… Apple?’
A golden apple – Chuck! I caught the slow falling apples as if they were made of paper.
The moment I saw that smooth apple up close, I felt an instinctive need to eat it, like eating kimchi from a bottom plate at a snack bar.
─Crunchy!
I bite into the apple as if this were the legitimate right of the winner.
It looked like it was painted with spray, so I ate it, so my appetite subsided, but it was more delicious than I thought. Even if there were only this amount of apples served in school lunches, it wouldn’t be possible to fill the gap with apples.
─Well, well.
Lying down like a cub from the Goryeo Dynasty, he ate apples. The apples with only the core remaining turned white and then disappeared.
“Fuck, I even caught God’s avatar, but is this the worst?”
It was delicious enough to suck up the juice left on your fingers, but it’s kind of disappointing.
“… Ship! Senior!”
As I was laying down and resting like that in a pitiful mood, I heard a human voice from somewhere.
A high-pitched voice. Is it Ralil Line?
─Thump!
The moment I realized that, the scenery of my dream collapsed. I woke up as if I had fallen off the bed after a good night’s sleep.
“Senior! Senior, are you okay?!”
Lalilura, who cried and shook me as I lay there, said that.
“Eww…”
I looked around with a sleepy head. It seems that her wives are lying down from mana exhaustion, and Lari Lura, whose front island is wet with mana potion, was waking me up.
It’s a pity that the condition has changed for a dream, but it seems that this is the end.
I patted her on the shoulder as a way to reassure the weeping Lalira.
And she said
〈 Crisp of Sealed Ass.〉
“… Yeah?”
Lalilura blinked blankly.
Naturally, I blinked and muttered.
[… Mask jogging gourmet party?]
Hey, is this a Mercenary thing?
The words that came out of my mouth came out completely different from what I was trying to say. I was just trying to say ‘what the fuck’?
What is it Is this a bug in the fucking translation function? He pressed his lips together carefully, trying to breathe out every single word.
I hate the Communist Party.
【Sliding whaling antennae wobbling Guten-Tak!!】
Lari Lura, who hugged me, burst into tears.
“Aaaaagh——!! Senpai is broken——!!”
Yes! That’s right!
