Volume 1
Chapter 68
I Fought Hadira
Translator : PolterGlast
【Hadira's POV】
"It's just
pain."
I couldn't understand
what the man was saying.
But I quickly
understood.
This guy is no good.
He's too dangerous.
If I don't dispose of
him here, he will become a major obstacle in our path later. It will be too
late then.
I immediately put
distance between us.
While keeping my
distance, I thrust my right hand towards him, grabbed my wrist with my left
hand, and supported it.
"Death Spirits!!
Devour him!!"
As if obeying my
command, three visible purple-tinged skull-like spirits appeared and headed
toward the man with their mouths open.
It's a spiritual
technique that forcibly steals the souls of those it passes through and kills
their bodies.
The skull spirits flew
at a considerable speed───but before they could
reach him, the man pulled back his right elbow───and thrust out his
fist.
The impact generated
by the thrust negated my [Death Spirits].
Without hesitation,
the man charged forward. He quickly closed the distance between us.
A left hook───followed by a right
uppercut. Again, although it didn't hit me, the impact released from the swung
fist shaved my spiritual body.
It's okay if my body
is shaved. It will regenerate soon. But his attacks are damaging my soul as
well───it's troublesome.
The man used the
momentum of his punch to spin around. He even gave me a left roundhouse kick.
My torso temporarily disappeared as if it had been torn apart.
No good... This is
bad!! If this continues... I'll lose!
"Uooohhh!!!!"
I thrust my left hand
upward and attached my right hand.
I'll impose a forced
[death] on this entire area.
A faintly purple
glowing sphere appeared on my left palm. It absorbed the smaller light sources
that appeared around it and grew larger.
Let the earth wither───
Great Death
Waterfall!!!!
□□□
Originally, long ago
in this world, there was a person known as the King of Sand.
He created anything
with sand and also withered countless enemies with sand───a historical hero and
a great sinner.
One of his techniques───so powerful and
heinous that it has gone down in history.
Its name is the Great
Desert.
It's a technique that
instantly destroys cities by manipulating a large amount of sand and sending
waves of sand that rapidly absorb moisture.
Because the affected
area is so vast, the technique is still talked about today as a metaphor for
disasters, as it destroyed many cities.
What the God of Death,
Hadira, unleashed without hesitation was an imitation of this.
He rapidly contracted
the deathly fog and released it downwards, and when it hit the ground, the
purple fog scattered in all directions. In this way, he sent out waves of death
fog in a circular pattern to wither everything───that is the Great
Death Waterfall.
Of course, anyone who
was exposed to the fog would unconditionally be met with the consequence of
"death". If one touched it, one would simply die and be dissolved in
the fog.
Even Kushina, who had
gone on the offensive, could not dodge it───in fact, he didn't even try to dodge, and was swallowed up by the mist───and melted away.

【Hadira's POV】
"Haa...haa..."
Please... don't get up
anymore... just die.
After using my
technique, I stared at the spot where the man had been, praying.
He said the reason for
his regeneration was a [skill].
I don't know how much
credibility there is to that, but if it's a [skill]───a human skill───there must be a limit.
I desperately prayed
that it would come. I prayed that he would fall down already.
However, my prediction
was quickly overturned.
Once again, I saw the
familiar dark red mist and the red liquid of unknown origin converge at a
certain point.
I confirmed the man's
awakening for what felt like the umpteenth time.
"A... Aa...
Aa..."
No way... No way...!
I felt like everything
I had built up was being denied. I was made to realize that everything was
meaningless───terror!
My core was broken.
The man went on the
offensive again.
He instantly closed
the distance, and countless fists approached me.
"───! ───!!"
Due to the fatigue and
mental load from using such a powerful technique───my movements became
sluggish, and I couldn't even dodge the attacks that flew at me with torrential
force and took several hits.
Several holes appeared
in my body───but the man didn't
care, and continued to thrust his fist up, then clenched both fists and swung
them down. Due to the immense damage and momentum, I could no longer float in
the air and collapsed to the ground.
The man placed both
feet on either side of my head, which had landed on the ground, and stopped.
His smiling face made
me realize that I couldn't escape anymore.
Is this the end? Is it
my duty as a god to erase this man───and I can't even accomplish that, and it ends here...?
Such a thing... I
don't want that...!
I haven't done
anything yet...! Even though I was enshrined as a god, I haven't left anything
in history yet!
It ends here? And at
the hands of a human at that? No, no, no... I don't want that...
Aa... Aa! I'm sorry,
Elethea-sa...
Before I could finish
my apology in my heart, the man thrust his fist into my face.
