Hadira
Launched an Attack
Translator : PolterGlast
【Hadira's POV】
"Impossible...!
I was greatly
agitated.
However, I am a god
enshrined by Elethea-sama, the Goddess of Soul Manifestation.
Calm down, I must
remain calm in times like these...!
What a shock, but
there's no need to fear more than I already do. I am the God of Death───a god who rules over
death.
My body is a spirit.
Only a spiritually effective weapon can scratch me.
From the looks of it,
the man doesn't have such a weapon. In fact, it's impossible for a human like
him to have a treasure from four hundred years ago───from the age of myths.
Ha, that's right───why should I be
afraid?
Even the resurrection
of the dead, such a ridiculous feat, couldn't possibly be done repeatedly. If I
keep killing him until he dies, I win.
I regain my composure.
Just then───
"Well then, next
is my turn."
The man took a step
forward, signaling an attack.
Come, foolish human.
Your inability to die has become your downfall. You're going to die over and
over again from now on───
The man disappeared.
Huh!?
"Gah!!"
No, he didn't
disappear. He approached me at a speed that I couldn't perceive. As proof, the
man was right in front of my chest, in a punching stance.
Moreover, what's even
more surprising is───I'm damaged!?
Impossible!! What's
the trick!? Even other gods can't interfere with me!! Why! How can a mere
human!! Hurt my soul!!!!
I staggered back a few
meters from the sudden pain.
As a spirit, even if
it looked like a hole had been punched in me, it would close in an instant───but it's clear that
his attack is now damaging my existence.
This guy
is...dangerous!!
I thrust out my right
hand. ───Instantly, a
purplish-black mist appeared around the man. The man looked around curiously───and.
"───"
The man's right arm
began to melt slightly. No, it's not just his arm. His cheek, chest, leg───his entire body is
starting to melt.
It's the mist of
death... Melt!
The man noticed that
his body was melting and turned his attention to his right arm.
His body is gradually
melting. If this continues, the melting will progress rapidly, and eventually,
it will turn into a liquid.
Or so I thought, but───
"………"
The man looked away
from his right arm as if there was no problem and turned back to me.
What's going on... The
melting speed is abnormally slow? Or rather... it's regenerating as it melts!?
That's ridiculous!
"───!"
The man disappeared
again. ───Then, I feel a shock
around my side. He must have moved at an inhuman speed again, went in front of
my chest, and thrust his fist out!
I put distance between
us again.
Standing still is not
a good idea! This guy───I have to keep killing
him while moving!
But the man won't let
me easily distance myself.
He chased me at the
same speed.
While chasing me, the
man threw punches with his right and left fists, and then followed up with
another right punch. None of them hit me, but a tremendous impact occurred the
moment he threw a punch, and that impact reached me and damaged my existence
again.
"Guuu, uooohhh!!!"
Don't underestimate
meeeee!!!!
I extended both my
index fingers, held my right arm out perpendicular to my side, and twisted it
slightly to the right. That became the starting point, and an eerily yellow
light appeared at the tips of my index fingers. Furthermore, as I rotated my
arm, a similar light appeared in front of me in a circle, and as it passed
through the six larger light sources that had appeared first, it burst out
violently.
I quickly pulled back
my right arm, which had been at a right angle, and instead thrust out my left
index finger towards the man.
───Death Lightning!!
An eerily yellow
lightning bolt struck the man I had pointed at.
It all happened in an
instant. The lightning was only visible for the briefest of seconds, but the
man who was struck by it was charred black and crumbled into particles.
Now's my chance! I
followed up.
I pulled back my left
arm and thrust out my right palm.
───Death Flame!!
A purplish-blue flame
ignited where the man had been. The flame, with colors like a painting, burned
endlessly, returning everything to the underworld.
And I didn't stop
there.
I pulled back my right
hand and brought my left hand in front of my face, putting strength into both
arms and making a motion as if holding something in each position.
───Death Water!!
A two-meter-diameter
water droplet appeared that extinguished even the death flame that burned
endlessly and melted everything it contained, swallowing the man and everything
around him.
At that moment,
something floated up in the death water. It was the ring the man had been
wearing.
The opportunity is
here.
I extended my right
index finger towards the ring.
Pierce! ───Death Wind!!
The death water was
rapidly contracted, creating a bullet of wind of the same size. It scattered a
strong wind around it, indicating its great power.
It blew away
everything in the area, including the death water.
I thought that even a
strong ring would be destroyed after receiving so many attacks from a god───especially since the last
one was aimed directly at it.
"───!"
Contrary to my
expectations, the ring was slightly chipped but not broken.
The man began to
regenerate as I stopped attacking. As before, a dark red mist and a deep
crimson liquid swirled together from all around, forming the shape of the man.
The ring was also fitted on the man's finger as if it belonged there.
...So that's how it
is.
"I see."
I begin to speak.
"───?"
"That ring───the ring that survived
my attacks───that must be your true
form."
"Huh?"
"I don't know
what kind of thing it is... but there's no doubt that it's something beyond
human wisdom. I never thought a human like you would have a treasure from the
age of myths. That must be the secret behind your ridiculous regeneration and
attacks. As long as you have that ring, your body will continue to regenerate
and you can interfere with any existence, right? It's completely
outrageous."
"……………"
The man, perhaps
because I had hit the bull's-eye, fell silent and began to gaze intently at the
ring on his fist.
"But, once I know
the trick, it's over! It's a shame that I can't show you hell, but I'll make
sure you disappear here!"
Saying so, I raised
both my hands and began to rotate my arms to the right at different angles so
that circles formed. Purple light lit up my palms, and a connection was created
as if lightning was passing between them.
"Scatter!"
I clenched my fists
simultaneously and thrust out my right fist, releasing the light.
───Death Strike!!
