103 – Escape (2)
[Hmm.]
Hearing such a threat, the King of Death was not particularly embarrassed.
He only gave a concise answer after making a deep voice with a worried look.
[I can’t do that.]
“I have a question for you.”
His answer made me wonder too.
Of course, this is just to buy some time.
The momentary stiffness caused by the King of Death’s attack on me is over.
No matter what I do, it’s still not enough to get out of the hands of the Death King.
“Is it worth that much to me?”
To the extent I couldn’t understand, the demon king took me very seriously.
It wasn’t like this even before the return.
Precisely, it must have been because I had never rejected her recruiting offer to this extent.
[I will ask again.]
The King of Death also shook his head.

Just as I couldn’t understand the demon king, the commander-in-chief didn’t understand me either.
[Is there any reason to reject that much?]
“That’s right, of course.”
I clenched my fists.
We plan to maximize the use of the gloves with the time gained from the conversation.
No matter how many lives you spend, it’s an infinite resource, and if you’re caught here and have to face the Prime Evil, this is too much of a waste.
The more I used the gloves, the more I felt like I was reaching a peak.
It’s like trying to immerse your fingertips, even for a moment, in an area that you couldn’t reach before.
[As expected, I can’t leave it alone.]
The King of Death moved first.
I didn’t even draw a magic circle.
Beyond omitting the chant, the King of the Dead is able to cast great magic on a vast scale without even a magic circle.
And at great speed.
As if I had noticed that I was crossing a realm, an attack that was too fast attacked me.
The breathlessness of living oppresses me.
When his life was in danger, the world slowed down and he could see every single finger the King of Death was waving in detail.
I mumbled looking at it.
“…A body full of vitality.”
Not for a long time.
“It’s really a first.”
Step out.
As I take a step, my view changes.
The attack launched by the King of Death made the place where I had just been until now completely devastated, but it was meaningless.
[…that.]
“Whoa.”
It can also be described as a leap forward.
After forcibly penetrating space, leaping to a place far away.
It is a feat that only transcendentalists can do.
feel dizzy
Since it showed movements that cannot be counted with human senses, it is something that the body cannot handle.
If I counted the number of fists I had clenched earlier, it seemed that I had crossed it roughly ten times.
If you bring out the limit of the glove to the maximum.
I was able to reach the realm of mana transcendent for a while.
It can also become a true transcendent.
Not even half-baked before the regression.
“…just for a moment.”
Feeling the futility of not having anything in my heart, I move on again.
Before I could panic, the King of Death followed me again and launched a huge attack.
If you touch it, it will shatter.
But I moved again, and before the King of Death’s attack could reach me, I fell far away.
No, I thought it fell.
– Sigh.
[The joke ends there.]
“…It sure is amazing.”
The King of Death, who predicted where I would leap from, squeezed my shoulders and crushed them.
But, Commander, I’m not a kid who just experienced the realm of transcendence.
He knows the battle of transcendentalists.
I’ve been fighting with my fellow warriors’ party without a break.
Because I fought with you too.
My body flickers like light.
It seemed like it was the first time since the return that the soul-burning battle had been exhausted.
It won’t be the first time.
When I killed all the demons with Instant Resurrection, I had a similar experience.
Bang-bang-bang-bang-!!
Black magic explodes and flows with every step you take.
In one breath, it collided with him ten times, and the waves generated by contact with it reached the point of turning nearby buildings into a wasteland.
The pre-regression comes to mind.
At that time, it was a wasteland without even such a building.
Recalling the time when I fought against the King of Death, nearing the end.
move the dagger
It is not possible to use black magic with a body filled with circles.
The heart with the circle was blown away, so I could just use it.
…Originally, I was thinking of breaking the circle, but it just worked out.
“I’ll make a last offer.”
[I also give a final warning.]
The King of Death, who always kept his composure, was also angry, so he warned me like this.
[If it continues here, until the world collapses, you will never see the light of day.]
“If you don’t let me go, this demon castle will be shattered.”
How can you say such contradictory things?
He smiled and snapped his fingers.
The finger was cut just as it was about to snap.
One of the checks thrown by the King of Death aimed at the moment when his fingers snapped.
“It hurts.”
The severed finger didn’t fly anywhere.
Curiously, only the glove was intact, and the fingers remained inside the glove.
Instead, the flowing blood stained the white gloves red.
However, the other finger remained.
In place of the cut off index and thumb of the left hand, the thumb and forefinger of the right hand are flicked.

Just-
Then, an explosion that even my ears couldn’t handle hit the castle.
The time when the space where the brilliant civilization of the demon king army was built collapses in an instant.
I run at the fastest speed possible in this demon castle.
It’s too much to do with just one King of the Dead, but there’s no answer when other executives of the transcendence flock to it.
Consuming the vitality gained through the gloves, I stabbed the back of my hand with a dagger and raked up the demonic energy behind my back as I sprinted through the realm of the Demon Realm.
keep getting off
I feel like every bone in my leg is about to collapse.
But it was not enough.
This isn’t enough for a while.
Everything has to be done.
You have to burn everything to get out of here.
otherwise.
There were too many uninvited guests to come.
“My friend, I’m disappointed.”
– Wooddeuk.
My shoulder blade collapses at someone’s touch.
I almost collapsed on the spot, but I managed to hold on.
Rather than a touch, it was the force exerted with one hand gesture.
A young man dressed as a typical wizard approached me with a bizarre smile.
I muttered looking at him.
“…who is whose friend.”
“Because I liked it.”
Even in this situation, Puerto showed a friendly appearance.
It is a half transcendentalist.
In a way, it was an enemy more worthy of dealing with than the King of Death, but in the current situation, it was difficult for me to handle a transcendent.
“Would you like it?”
“Well… Judging by the condition, it looks like it will die soon. I will use a good preservative to keep it that way for the rest of my life.”
Puerto laughed.
…Looking at it this way, inside the Demon King’s army, the officers who are not the Demon King and the Demon King do not seem to know that I am an immortal.
Cyclops guessed that I was immortal with their excellent observational powers, but they probably do.
“I’m going to die anyway, so how about letting go?”
“Leaving a trail behind is not my hobby, so please die quietly.”
Puerto takes a step.
Every time a footstep touches the snow.
His eyes shone intensely bright, like snow falling from the sky.
“Did you think we could destroy the castle and go there comfortably?”
Sigh-!
Every time he gestured, his whole body collapsed.
Still, I stayed still.
Yet, he was making fun of me.
No matter how much coercion he gave, he was a weaker opponent than the King of Death.
The King of Death is an absolute strong man who will never find a way to kill him, but he is not Puerto.
At this opportunity, I intend to risk the life of one of the transcendentalists.
While crouching down, grasp the origin of the star.
Black magic is black magic.
Magic is treated with magic.
It’s best if you can mix and match both.
Not an easy way.
So it’s the best way to do it.
Puerto is guessing me to be a warlock, and I also arrived here scattering demonic energy all over my body.
So, he was preparing only for black magic.
It was overlooked by inexperienced Transcendentalists.
Puerto was muttering something like that when he shouldn’t have been vigilant.
“I’m sure the Demon King won’t tell me not to kill even at a time like this, so I’ll just kill comfortably.”
“Try it.”
“Are you still full of yourself?”
If there was a problem, I couldn’t amplify it enough with the time I had earned for a while.
The circle containing mana had already been blown away, and I had used up most of my available energy to reach this point.

Just in case, I grabbed the glove once more.
According to what Cyclops said, there is a limit to the number of gloves.
It’s already been pulled to the limit.
but oddly enough.
The limit was exceeded, and vitality was given to the body again.
“…I don’t know.”
This is not a masterpiece, Cyclops.
It is a treasure like a holy sword or a demonic sword.
Even if it’s worth that much, it’s okay.
With a small smile, she poured energy into the necklace.
As a newly discovered fact, if vitality is put into the root of a star, it will be converted into mana.
All I have to do is one action.
A fight between transcendental beings, especially between wizards, is a life and death decision made by a single action and mistake.
No matter how much they reach the transcendental level, the magician’s body is weak.
At least, the King of Death was close to undead, so he could recover even if he received a fatal blow.
puer you are not
flash-
“uh…?”
take a leap
Reaching close distance with him, I unleash a dagger.
It is blocked by a shield here.
Certainly, it was a shield with absolute resistance to black magic, so that his realization was not overshadowed.
Considering that, it was right that the surprise attack would not work.
However, powerful mana was concentrated in the dagger.
Enough mana to pierce the shield formed by the transcendent collides.
A great light bursts forth.
