19 – Nightfall – Hidden Route (7)

It was a battle reminiscent of a scene from a myth.

Shooak!

A ‘ruler’ the size of which resembles a huge mountain range, targets a single human and wields its tentacles.

The size of each tentacle is so large that it reminds us of quite a few buildings, and even though it doesn’t contain any mysteries, at least one human being would die instantly if they were hit directly.

Kwakkwakkwakkwa!

At the same time as dozens of tentacles struck the ground, the heavens and earth shook as if an earthquake had occurred.

That’s not enough to destroy just one human, it’s an attack that overflows.

The force itself is no different from a natural disaster that cannot be resisted by human power alone!

And there was someone who fought against such a natural disaster from the front, holding only a sword.

It was Eugene.

Poo-Hak-!

After evading the enemy’s attack with flamboyant movements reminiscent of acrobatics, he swings his sword and cuts off the tentacles of the ‘ruler’.

Every time the golden light emanating from the holy sword flashes, tentacles the size of a building are sliced like pieces of cake.

The sight of the ruler and Eugene fighting each other saying they couldn’t acknowledge each other was so absurd in itself that viewers could only stare blankly at the spectacle in a state of fascination.

– Crazy… I can’t help but admire…

– How can a person move like that? Have you ever experienced something like that in real life?

– ㄴ Somajwa was actually Captain Korea

– No… More than that, wasn’t it that you couldn’t move properly because of the level of fanaticism in Somajwa right now??

– If I were in that position, I would be crushed by the tentacles in less than a second, and I would be confident that I would become a navigani hahahahaha

That’s right.

If someone who didn’t know anything had watched the current battle, they would have simply admired Eugene as a person with excellent physical abilities, but viewers were well aware of the circumstances behind it.

Eugene is currently under the penalty of a normal person not being able to properly control his body due to the fanaticism level.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the worst, but it is possible to show off movements reminiscent of acrobatics?

Just then, Eugene, who instantly closed the distance with the enemy, avoided the enemy’s tentacles and jumped on top of them.

Although the size of the tentacles is the size of a decent building, it was an unrealistic sight to ride on top of them during a fierce battle.

Soon, Eugene steps on the tentacles, jumps up, steps on the main body, and lands on the part that corresponds to the human head, blowing off dozens of tentacles around him in a single blow!

Poo-Hak-!

[■■■■■■■-!]

At that moment, the ‘ruler’ staggered his body and let out an incomprehensible scream.

No matter how you look at it, it looks like the ‘ruler’ has suffered a significant blow!

– Isn’t this really catching the ruler?

– Are the bigger ones coming? Is it big? Is it big?

– Was the money I bet actually non-performing bonds and not safe assets???

– Are you shaking your body right now after walking on a reverse course? hahahahaha

– So you should have bet on Jeongbae hahahahaha Even after seeing Somajwa catch Ariandel, you bet on reverse bae? It’s poisonous, it’s poisonous hahahaha

– ㄴ No, no matter how you look at it, wasn’t Somajwa’s slutty face a jeongbae?

The viewers were cheering while looking at Eugene, but Eugene muttered in a nervous voice.

“… Total 34 times. I’ve cut off that many tentacles so far, but it’s all in vain.”

That’s right.

Eugene took the strategy of first cutting off the tentacles to keep the opponent in check and to block the means of attack to himself, but as a result, he did not get any effect.

Because at the same time that Eugene cut off the tentacle, it immediately regenerated as if it had been cut.

Only like this, the fight never ends.

And if the fight turns into a protracted battle or a battle of attrition, the disadvantageous side is obviously Eugene.

Because Eugene is currently engaged in battle while struggling to suppress the side effects of his fanaticism level.

As Eugene couldn’t hide his nervousness, Yuria, the holy sword he was holding in his hand, spoke to him in a low voice.

[Master, it is useless to attack like this. In order to defeat the ruler, you must attack the heart, which is the source of magical power.]

“… Heart?”

[This is the only part that can be called the source of the ruler’s infinite magical power and at the same time a vital point. Those tentacles will regenerate indefinitely unless a direct blow to the heart is given.]

“Then where the hell is that heart?”

[Well, the part of the heart is different for each ruler, so I don’t know where it is. One thing is certain: the heart is most likely on the main body side, not on the extremity like the tentacles.]

At the advice of the Holy Sword, Eugene felt absurd.

The main body is good for words, but the ruler in front of you had a size bigger than a decent mountain.

To find and strike the heart somewhere in the body of a ruler of that size? Are you taking that as advice?

‘Damn it, I tried to save as much as possible, but am I going to have to use it already?’

In the end, that moment when Eugene was hesitating whether he should use his will at this point.

[Continuous contact with the body of the ruler has been made.]

From noble mtl dot com

[Facing knowledge not allowed to humans. The ‘Fanatical’ level increases significantly.]

Giying-

“Kuu!”

At the same time as he feels a slight dizziness in his brain, the ‘ruler’ in front of him goes mad looking at him.

[That’s interesting. I really thought it would have been possible for me to go this far against a human being like a bug.]

To my surprise, I began to understand what the ‘ruler’ was saying, which had been heard only in screams until now.

– Huh??? What else is this??? Did he really know how to talk?

– It seems that fanaticism has risen significantly and now you can fully understand the ruler’s language lol

– You just have to understand that Sanchi went crazy because he was so f*cking cut lol

[The worm’s rebellion was quite a fun pastime, but the disrespect pointed that sword at me is hard to forgive. So, should I end it here?]

Indeed, the ‘ruler,’ who had been muttering in a pleasant tone, pointed at Eugene with a tentacle.

[Avoid! It is the unique power of ‘Those Who Look at the Stars’, Reversal!]

“What?”

However, despite Yuria’s advice, the light emitted from her tentacles hit Eugene’s body in the blink of an eye.

“… !”

Fortunately, I didn’t feel any pain at the moment I was directly hit by the beam.

It didn’t die, and it didn’t bleed anywhere.

However, Eugene instinctively realized this.

Although he was still alive, he knew that he was doomed as a human the moment he was directly hit by this beam.

“… What was that thing from before?”

In response to Eugene’s question, Yuria opens her mouth in a trembling voice.

[‘Those who look at the stars’ are rulers with the power of reversal, giving wisdom to the mad and life to the dead. And the master must have changed something crucial as a human being as he was hit directly by that authority.]

“… What?”

And that was then.

Jerrit!

“Kuu!”

Unknowingly, Eugene dropped the holy sword she was holding on the floor.

She felt a tingling pain in the hand holding her holy sword, so she let go of the sword momentarily.

[As expected… ‘Those Who Look at the Stars’ is a reversal of the master from ‘human’ to ‘something other than human’. If the reversal is complete, the master will be transformed into something other than human. That’s why my essence must also be that I refused the master’s touch.]

The transformation into an outsider, as they say, was in fact no different from death.

“… If so, how long will it take for the reversal to complete?”

[This is the power of one who is equal to ‘ruler’. Even if you resist as much as possible with the help of the holy sword… I think about 1 minute is the limit.]

“One minute, so… “

Yujin clenched her fists and cautiously put her strength into them.

Whether it was the effect of the reversal or the effect of changing her body to something other than that of a human being, Eugene’s body was boiling with a level of power that was on a different level than before.

As a price to face death in one minute, is it to make a final struggle with transcendent power beyond human limits?

In terms of physical ability, he was about half as powerful as he was in his prime, but now what’s the use of all that-

‘No, wait. With this much power, maybe… ‘

After finishing some calculations in his head, Eugene threw a question at Yuria in an urgent voice.

“What happens if you defeat the ‘ruler’ within one minute? Perhaps the power of reversal is also automatically released?”

[Yes? Probably so, I think. If the ‘ruler’, the subject of authority, is extinguished, the reversal that happened to the master will also lose its power. However, it is impossible to defeat the ruler in just one minute-]

“No, one minute is enough.”

Saying that, Eugene took the holy sword that had fallen on the floor into his hand again.

You can. It is quite possible.

Until now, Eugene had been fighting against the ‘ruler’ as a single hunter, so he was struggling.

However, with this level of strength, it is possible to draw out even a fragment of Eugene’s strength as a hero in his heyday, without having to fight as a hunter!

“…Something will be different from now on. You can look forward to it.”

The hero who even slaughtered the demon king in another world is now returning to this place.
