Chapter 81
81 – A New Power
A flight of black dragons were staying aloft in the scarlet sky .
The sunset is dyeing its color towards the clouds in the sky .
The vibrant orange light encroached deep into the forest .
The gleaming orange light pierces through the crevices between the trees .
The dragon knights hovering in the sky looks like they’re prepared to fight .
A person who wields a lance in his hand .
A person who was drawing his bow .
A person who carries some kind of staff .
However, they still haven’t attacked .
Were they thinking that the Five Dragon Warriors were my hostages?
Or is it that they feel like it would be bad news for them if they were to fight against the opponent who defeated “The Humanity’s Strongest” himself?
This is one of the weak points of a group who only have one person as their absolute commander .
If they were to lose their boss, their movement would become duller .
Such a group would often get weaker when their general were taken down .
That’s the first thing that I knew from the stories on the delinquent manga I’ve read before .
[Status Open . ]
I called out my status to check my MP .
I took a quick glance at it .
The numerical value of my MP is decreasing at a tremendous speed for every second that passes .
It would be impossible for me to maintain this kind of situation for a long time .
[Let’s quickly end this, Pigimaru . ]
[Pigii!]
The protrusions emitted phosphorescence after I injected magic energy unto it .
[Piigggiiiiiiiiiiii———!]
Basshhuuuuu!
Multiple protrusions began growing simultaneously spreading out towards the sunset-dyed skies .
They’re growing at a rapid pace .
[W- What the...!?]
A scene where countless amount of roots were stretching out towards the sky .
These protrusion strike fast as if they’re arrows flying as they approach the group of prey, the dragon knights .
[Kuhh!? Don’t be flustered! C- Cut them down—!]
Shhhiiinn!
One of the dragon knights tried slashing through the sky with his sword .
[Whaa!? They’ve stopped...!?]
The protrusion didn’t extend out towards the dragon knight and they suddenly stopped before they could reach their group .
The dragon knights look like they’re pretty confused .
They must have thought that those protrusions would swoop down on them because of how fast they’re flying .
The problem is the place where those protrusions have stopped .
They’ve stopped approximately 10 meters in front of the dragon knights who were flying in the sky .
That means...
They’re within the 20 meter range .
Extending out my hands toward the air .
Yes, from here on out—
[]
They would be able to reach these guys .
[Nuuahhh!?]
[The dragon’s movement...!?]
[No... Even our... movement...!?]
Currently, half of Pigimaru is combined with “myself” .
Therefore, now that I’m in this situation where I’m connected with him—
The distance from the tip of the protrusions would become the basis of my 20 meter range .
[Kuh! Is it that strange tentacle’s ability!?]
Shhwwwinnng!
[You monster!]
The dragon knight who was slightly out of my range threw his sword .
Slaaaap!
One of the protrusions were slashed into two pieces .
[Tsk . ]
I can’t help but click my tongue .
This is my first time using this in actual battle, so I’m still not accustomed to operating this tentacles yet .
There were some people that have leaked away from my skill .
I wasn’t able to properly judge the distance huh...
[Pigimaru, are you okay...!?]
[Pii♪]
[Hmm?]
The affirmative green color .
As far as I could see, he’s still quite lively .
He doesn’t look like he’s just enduring the pain .
This information wasn’t written in the Great Sage’s memo .
I quickly began thinking about this new information .
If Pigimaru in this kind of situation...
Would he only take damage when he’s attacked somewhere near his core?
As long as it’s away from his heart, he won’t be taking any damage .
Or perhaps, just a small amount of damage .
That’s all the damage he got though .
If he were to combine with me, it wouldn’t have been strange if it were me that was damaged when these protrusions were cut down .
If this is how it is...
[It might be fine if I’m a bit more confident . ]
[Pii!]
[However, though I say that— make sure to tell me if it hurts, okay?]
[Pigyii!]
Bashhuuu!
As the paralyzed black dragons have fallen down to the ground, the protrusions began extending towards the still healthy black dragons in the back .
[D- Don’t come near meee—-!]
Ah, that’s right .
If it were from this range...
[]
The remaining black dragons stopped moving .
Invoking Sleep towards them was a success .
The remaining black dragon began crashing down to the ground along with their riders .
It’s as if— I’m looking at a black rain .
Black dragons began slamming down towards the ground one after another .
Gushaaa!
[Guueeehhh!?]
Dosshhhaaa!
[Guuuooo!? Geeegggyyaaahhh!?]
The sunset sky that’s colored with blue and orange gradation .
The Black Dragon Knights who have fallen down into the Dark Forest .
It’s as if the light of this world were being consumed by this world’s darkness .
[Now then...]
It seems that some dragons have already broken their necks before I even invoked poison into them .
Even just crashing down to the ground inflicted quite a lot of damage .
However, that still won’t stop me .
I have to be thorough .
[]
To these black dragons who were still alive even when they have crashed on the ground, I invoked poison towards them .
I further extended out my protrusion in another direction .
[Guuaaaa...]
Oban .
[I- Impossi... ble...]
Schweiz .
[Tou... kaaaa—-...!]
Civit .
I turned towards these Five Dragon Warriors who were still alive .
Before the paralysis gauge runs out...
I added another gauge on top of that .
[]
After that, I could just alternate between paralysis and sleep until they would finally die .
Most of my opponents couldn’t handle this semi-infinite combo .
After all, this would work as long as my Abnormal State Skill works .
[...............]
With this, Sleep has finally caught up with my other level 3 skills huh...
[Hmm?]
