「Oo…… Oooohh……?!」
Pierced with the spear the rakshasa currently was soaring along with Axel.
Kicking off the God Tree they were rising into the sky at an amazing speed.
…What is the force propelling them……?!
The answer for that came when he looked behind him and at the light that enveloped his attacker.
……Is he…… Absorbing the magic power of the God Tree……?!
Right. It’s almost as if he used the God Tree as a rail.
Axel accelerated even further mid-air as if trying to drag both high into the sky. In doing so he could have only one aim.
「…I wonder how high I have to go before you regeneration disappears…!」
Probably because he realized his opponent’s intentions, a laugh escaped his lips.
「Kuh…… Vain struggle……!」
Shouting, the rakshasa created a poison bullet in his hand and slapped it at Axel.
It’s a point-blank range. It will certainly hit. In fact, Axel’s torso and both of his arms were drenched in poison.
And yet his momentum didn’t drop.
「Gooh……Oo……」
First, the rakshasa’s hand broke due to the impetus of their climb.
Furthermore, the flesh kept gradually tearing off.
「This much, won’t stop my regeneration……!」
With my skill 【Earth Vitality Absorbing Regeneration】, any wounds I take would immediately recover.
In fact, they were healing even now, emitting smoke in the process. And yetー
…They wouldn’t heal completely……?!
This time was different from anything that happened before.
Torn all over the place, splattered pieces of flesh showed no signs of coming back.
The broken hand also wasn’t fully fixed.
「Aah, isn’t this nice. Regeneration grows weaker and weaker.」
Seeing that, Axel laughed.
「Kuh… Ugh… Even though you won’t be left unscathed as well……!」
Right. Though he laughed, pieces of flesh were tearing off Axel’s arms as well.
This skill is way too powerful, furthermore, he is weakened by the poison, he is merely enduring it.
Of course, one would get injured, ascending with such a speed.
………Normally, it’s common sense to protect oneself when one uses powerful skills.
However, this man didn’t do that. Or, perhaps, he couldn’t.
The backlash was evident.
However, without worrying about that at all, he just kept applying pressure on me.
「Why won’t you stop……!!」
「? What reason do I have to stop while you are still breathing…?」
He muttered, smiling with his lips alone. That probably was an honest question.
Those words sent a shiver down my spine.
Since I wield poison, approaching me is unthinkable. Yet I didn’t like being charged anyway.
That’s because the ones that tried to get me off the ground with their charge are the most troublesome.
And to avoid repeated charges, I weaken my targets with poison.
And to do that I mixed and cultivated a strong poison. That was my countermeasure.
As long as my opponent is a living being, the poison will get to it, weakening it.
Thanks to that, I always have an upper hand against living beings.
And yet, the man in front of me took plenty of poison and still keeps pressing forward without care.
「You are insane……!」
Taking a hit would definitely eat away his strength.
it should at least make him flinch.
That’s my poison.
An attack that I finally obtained after a long time of training, research and cultivation. There is no way that it’s not working.
……The effect is showing!
He certainly is taking damage from poison.
Part of the flesh on his arm melted off, exposing bones!
No matter what kind of angry face he makes, a violent pain should be gripping him, as a living being, he should take natural, reflexive actions to protect himself.
「oooh……!」
And yet this carrier did none of that and kept pressing forward.
「Y-you bastard, that’s not how living should act……!」
「Well…… Should that stop me from killing you……? 」
「…!」
No doubt.
He is insane.
……Nothing exists for him except for the goal of killing me…!
And to think that he would suppress even the most basic of his instincts for the sake of killing me.
…Damn monster…!
A short while after that thought crossed my mind.
「Now, we arrived, rakshasa Bane.」
With those words, the pressure applied to my body drastically lessened.
Axel stopped.
…No, that’s not it……
This man climbed all the way up there, dragging me along.
We were at the very peak of the God Tree Aleden.
「How do you like it, rakshasa Bane? This is my battlefield. Don’t you think it’s beautiful? With the land and the town far below us… Look, over there, you can see Saki freezing all of your tigers.」
「Y-you bastard……!」
As much as I’d like to say something, my injured throat prevents me from speaking freely.
I became completely unable to heal myself.
Axel laughed seeing that.
「Aaah, I’m glad that we finally made it outside of the effective range of your regeneration.」
●
「Let’s wrap this up, Rakshasa.」
The height was great enough to overlook the entirety of the City of God Tree and the God Tree Aleden itself at once.
I grip the spear.
While the momentum from the climb still remained, while it didn’t turn into the fall yet, I take a big swing with my spear.
「Gough… This much…… Don’t underestimate, true majin……!!!」
But the rakshasa before me was yet to give up.
He lost his regeneration and was dripping with blood, but still took a stance, intending to use claws on both of his hands.
「Ooh… 【Deadly Tiger Strike】……!」
A giant purple-colored claw manifested as a result.
That attack threatened to tear me up.
However, I didn’t care about that.
「Rakshasa Bane. Like a comet in the city’s sky, you will be turned to dust and scattered.」
I also already finished preparations for the skill that will take him down.
「【Dragunir Eclipse】(Heavenly Spear of Dragon God)……!」
The moment I shouted those words a number of magic circles appeared in my surroundings, then focused on the spearhead.
Then, a trident of light burst from the tip of the spear covered in magic circles.
With the manifestation of that annihilating light the spearhead, unable to bear that power, disintegrated.
However, as compensation for that damageー
「――!!」
The thrust of the spear released that power.
The giant horn of dragon god came at the rakshasa in a straight line. Andー
「This… Is impossible… A mere carrier……」
Leaving only those words in the wind to wander through the sky the rakshasa was annihilated, disappearing without a trace.
【Condition achieved. Carrier level up!】
