297. Above the Runner, There’s Always a Flyer
He always enjoyed dominating and slaughtering enemies from his position as the flyer.
When Myth unleashed a threatening series of attacks, Leccero’s choice was Haste.
But it wasn’t the 3rd class magic, Haste.
It was the Demon’s Haste, which he used by mortgaging a portion of his lifespan as a contractor with a demon.
Demon Craise, Haste.
It was a last resort that consumed more dark energy than even a 9th class black magic, while also eating away at his lifespan.
At that moment, when Myth was unable to follow his movements with his eyes and was flustered.
Leccero felt exhilarated.
In fact, he had been hit in the face from the start of the battle.
And Leccero had been quite bothered that he couldn’t move forward from the stalemate and had given the initiative to Myth.
But a turning point had been made.
What he was seeing was the back of Myth’s head, and his reaction was still slow.
‘Demon Fascist, Hell Fire.’
Without thinking further, Leccero created hellfire.
With the power of the demon added, he would taste the horrific hell of the 9th class or higher.
Leccero was certain.
The next moment.
Whoosh!
“Kuaaaa!”
A huge flame covered Myth right in front of him, and Myth’s whole body was burning.
Only the silhouette covered by the flames was visible, but it was clearly the sight of a person’s body burning.
Soon, the silhouette gradually shrank, and as if turning into powder, it disappeared without a trace.
“Kuh, kuhhuh. Kkahahaha!”
The gamble was a great success.
As expected, when he was determined and engaged in battle by unleashing all his power, even a time traveler was nothing special.
He was almost ashamed of himself for worrying for a moment that he might lose or suffer a rough time.
“Huhu…….”
Leccero smiled as he checked Myth’s condition, who had disappeared without a trace before his eyes.
It would end up like this after all.
He had been injured because he hesitated to save some strength.
His pride was scratched, but he thought it was a medal worth using as it was.
But right then.
Whoosh!
“……?”
A sonic boom was heard from behind.
It wasn’t the sound of wind.
A situation where he shouldn’t turn around. But his instincts were faster than he thought, and Leccero turned his head.
“Resurrection, you son of a bitch!”
Thud!
“Keuk……!”
At that moment, Leccero doubted his eyes. The person who had struck him from behind was Myth.
The one who had just vanished into a handful of ashes, no, not even ashes, right in front of him was Myth.
It was said that the Hell Fire created with the power of the demon Fascist was so powerful that it even annihilated the soul.
But… Myth was fine.
Even the wounds on his body had disappeared, and everything seemed to be in perfect condition.
Thwack! Bang! Bang!
Leccero’s body, which had flown far away, broke the marble of the altar and rolled unsightly on the floor.
He didn’t feel the pain right away, but Leccero could instinctively sense that his shoulder and elbow bones, which had collided with the altar, were fractured.
“Cough!”
The internal injuries he sustained this time were beyond imagination.
He managed to twist his body to avoid Myth’s flying fist, but the area he was hit was his abdomen.
He had allowed a few attacks in the previous battle, but at that time, he could still bear and endure it.
But not now.
It felt as if someone was cutting through his peritoneum [the membrane lining the abdominal cavity] and stirring his intestines in a state where he wasn’t anesthetized.
“Kuaaaak!”
It was painful.
Leccero didn’t know, but Myth had put almost ‘everything’ into that blow.
First, he used the ninth form of Exploding Fist, Exploding Breaker. There was a burden of exhausting all his magic power, but that’s why it was a fist technique with ‘crazy’ destructive power.
Additional attributes were added here.
He put the attributes of fire, ice, and lightning into one fist.
It was a mixture of attributes.
When three attributes with mutually opposing relationships gathered in one place, the repulsive force was enormous.
It was difficult to mix easily, but once mixed, the three caused a fusion reaction and created tremendous resonance.
Mith suppressed the repulsive force with his hand – it was a really ignorant act, but that’s why he could do it – and clumped it together.
The moment he struck Leccero in that state, the power of the attributes burst out all at once like a runaway colt.
A shockwave of carnage created by resonance that was invisible to the eye and could not even be felt.
As if he had been exposed to radiation without a sound, Leccero was exposed to the shockwave that Myth had artificially created.
And it was Leccero’s internal organs that took that power as it was.
Exploding Breaker played a role in neutralizing even the anti-magic armor that had been added inside the robe to completely block the shockwave.
It was a counter-aimed at a perfectly designed scheme from start to finish.
To Leccero, who thought there was always a flyer above the runner!
It was a way of letting him know that there was someone flying even higher above the flyer.
Kugwagwagwa!
Mith kicked off the ground and sprinted fiercely towards Leccero using Transcendental Acceleration.
Mith was approaching head-on, but Leccero couldn’t get his balance.
Above all, he had no strength in his lower body, below his abdomen.
It wasn’t just that there was a problem with his organs, but it seemed that the blow had also caused a problem with his spine.
He had suffered a fatal blow.
It was Leccero’s forte to fight by assuming dozens, hundreds of cases in battle.
In the end, he found Myth’s weakness and thought his scheme had worked.
But it was even more surprising that Myth had predicted the scheme itself, which had been twisted several times.
Above all, the fact that the ability used to complete this scheme was ‘resurrection’ made Leccero despair.
‘How the hell……?’
Does Earth have the ability to revive people?
Leccero, who had reached the end of magic, did not have the ability to revive the dead cleanly.
It was a miracle that could never be achieved even with a contract with a demon.
It was a miracle that even the Demon King Reknaht could not do. But Myth did it.
I want to live.
For the first time in his life, Leccero thought he wanted to live.
The man in front of him.
He thought he might die soon in front of Myth.
“Don’t act cool, you son of a bitch!”
Paak!
“Keuheok!”
But Myth, who had closed the distance in an instant, used his right foot to kick the bottom of Leccero’s chin as it was.
It was Leccero’s ‘head’ that he kicked up so cheerfully that it looked like he was kicking a soccer ball.
Kuoong!
Leccero’s body, which had floated up without room to brake, rotated 360 degrees in the air as if doing a backflip.
It was an unsightly and embarrassing sight, but the problem was that Leccero no longer had the power to control it.
“Cough! Cough! Cough!”
All that burst out was blood-mixed cough, and the bones of his whole body screamed in agony as if they were about to die.
Leccero didn’t know.
That the current Myth was in a state of having a damage ‘buff’ of 7 times with the Primeval Power buff.
Whoosh!
Even in the midst of all this, Leccero, who had focused his mind, unleashed black magic on Myth with all his might.
But.
Poosh!
The black magic, which flew straight in a straight line, was caught in Myth’s intentional liquefaction and passed through.
It was an attack that Myth had already anticipated Leccero’s counterattack and allowed to pass through. He didn’t even slow down.
And.
Poook!
“Kuaaaaa!”
He stabbed the sword into Leccero’s left chest, only a finger’s joint away from his heart.
The next moment.
Leccero tried to utilize his relatively free right hand instead of his left hand, whose movements were greatly suppressed.
It wouldn’t be difficult to unleash black magic for a counterattack if he had only a moment to concentrate.
Pajijijik!
“Keoeok!”
But that method didn’t work either. It was because Myth used his remaining hand to release the energy containing the attribute of electricity.
Long-distance strikes like magic were impossible, but it was easy to transmit electricity immediately right in front of him.
“Kkeugeuk. Kkeugeuk. Kkeugeugeuk.”
It felt like he was suffering all the humiliation he could suffer in his life in a compressed version.
It wasn’t that he was indirectly hit by magic like Chain Lightning, but that electricity had penetrated his body.
“I’ll blow your neck off by borrowing the name of the person who would have resented and hated you more than I do, Leccero.”
“Kkeugeuk. Kkeugeuk. Kkeugeugeuk…….”
Leccero, who had become insensible, couldn’t say anything.
No matter how great a great wizard he was, he was still human.
Mith always said it like a habit.
The saying that there is no invincible being was a truth that applied to Leccero without exception.
“Nicholas. I’ll end it in your name. You son of a bitch, I’ll end it in your name, Nicholas!”
“Kuaaa! I’m going to die like this……!”
“Shut the X up, you XX!”
The moment Leccero was about to pour out his desperate struggle.
Jjwaaaaaak!
Mith’s sword, filled with anger, came up from his left chest.
And he cleanly cut through the middle of his face, literally cutting Leccero’s face in half.
Leccero’s face, split like a halved watermelon, opened on both sides in perfect symmetry.
“Hua. Hua. Hua.”
He took a rough breath.
He had used the Flower of Resurrection twice in a short period of time, and it felt like his body was severely overloaded.
“Keuheok.”
Was it because of the relief that the battle was over?
Or was it because of the exhaustion that came as the tension was relieved?
Mith felt the strength draining from his two feet, which had been firmly planted until just now.
Kuoong!
He just sat down on the spot.
At that moment, a blackout came, and all his vision became dizzy and he couldn’t see anything.
“Haa. Haa.”
The heart that made him gasp for breath was throbbing as if it would burst at any moment.
It was direct evidence of how much this body had sacrificed and suffered to the limit.
But right then.
Kuaaaa!
“……?”
Mith suddenly saw something approaching the altar from somewhere in the dark clouds in the sky where rain was pouring down.
It was hard to see because it was covered by raindrops, but it was clearly not a human figure, but something strangely shaped.
And it was approaching the main altar at a tremendous speed.
There was no time to think about what it was, who it was, or why it was coming here.
“Haa, annoying.”
Mith left only the last bit of magic power in his heart that he could draw out in case of an emergency.
Gwaaaaa!
He put all his magic power into his right fist.
There were still 5 seconds left of the Primeval Power buff, and it looked like it couldn’t be better to deliver the final blow.
Besides, there was still a one-hit kill that he hadn’t used… He could feed one more hit.
-It’s not over! My, Reknaht’s plan is still……!
“Huh?”
At that moment.
A very familiar name was heard in the beam of light.
