Chapter 401: Unleashed Trump Card (2)

"[Overdrive]."

Bloed's calm words resounded in the underground structure.

Immediately, a storm of psychic power erupted from his body, making every person and creature in the underground structure shiver.

The tentacles stopped abruptly. They then retreated in a panic as though they felt something terrifying.

However, it was too late.

Together with [Overdrive]'s activation, what remained of Leto's metallic sand rushed towards Bloed, quickly turning into a beautiful silvery-blue armor that took shape around Bloed's body, leaving only his head uncovered.

Blue-arcs of electricity wandered through the armor, creating a domineering image as his glowing blue eyes filled with a vast aura stared at the tentacles in front of him.

"[Eitr]," Bloed murmured to himself. 'The Hero's Armor.'

Just after that, part of Leto's metallic sand gathered in Bloed's right hand, engulfing his saber and turning it into a two-meters long knight lance. Strangely, though, the lance did not have an edge. Instead, it had a trigger and a streamlined design that glowed with an ominous blue-light and seemed to be able to destroy everything around it.

[Gungnir], the God-Killing Spear.

Since the moment when Bloed opened his eyes and activated [Overdrive], only one second had happened.

But the current Bloed was completely different than one second ago.

Taking a deep breath, he relished in the sensation of freedom and power caused by the activation of [Overdrive]. Right now, he felt more alive than ever.

He felt powerful. As though he could kill anything.

However, he soon noticed that his transformation was incomplete.

'[Svalinn] was not formed. As expected, Leto doesn't have enough sand to create [Svalinn].'

However, he did not think too much about it.

Even without [Svalinn], he needed to take care of this tentacle monster.

He could only hope that he had enough time.

Taking one step forward, Bloed activated the thrusters on the back of his armor, making his body hover several centimeters over the ground.

He looked at the panicking tentacles in front of him and lips curled up in an amused smile.

"Let's play."

Then, he pressed Gungnir's Trigger.

…

Isabella could swear that this was the first time in her life that she felt like this.

Just a moment ago, she was despairing after seeing tens of tentacles attacking them. At that moment, she had resigned herself to die in this place.

But now, that thought had disappeared completely from her mind.

Looking at the back of the blue-haired young man hovering in front of her, Isabella felt a shiver in her spine.

She could not believe that the calm and smart young man from before had turned into this overwhelmingly powerful… monster.

Just with a glance, she could feel the terrifying power he was wielding.

It was [End], it was [Destruction], it was [Death].

It was something that she could not describe completely with her current knowledge.

And it was so overwhelming that she felt extremely small before it.

Just at that moment, she heard the young man murmur something.

"Let's play." He said.

Immediately, [Destruction] spread in the laboratory.

The tentacles that brought her so much despair just a moment ago trembled in fear. Then, they turned into nothing more than dust in an instant.

There was no blood, there was no gore, and there was no corpse.

Every time that the young man aimed his strange lance at the tentacles, they disappeared completely, only leaving behind fine traces of dust.

But Isabella found it even more terrifying than if he would have destroyed the tentacles brutally.

This silent death, this quiet destruction… It was so terrifying that her body could not help but tremble.

"What is it…" Without her noticing it, these words escaped from her throat.

However, nobody answered her.

No, nobody could answer.

Because every person witnessing this was too shocked to let out a word.

But while Isabella was shocked watching Bloed's turn the tentacles into dust, Bloed was frowning.

Only five seconds had passed since he activated [Overdrive], however, he was struggling to keep it activated.

A terrifying headache was attacking him, and his head felt as though it wanted to explode. The pain was so intense that Bloed's sight had turned blurry.

Bloed knew that these were the consequences of overusing [Overdrive].

He had overburdened two-thirds of his calculation zone earlier today to use [Invisible Slash] and [Door of Nothingness], hence, currently hi calculation zone could not endure the burden of using [Overdrive] for long.

However, he did not stop using it.

Because he had not destroyed every one of the tentacles nor had he destroyed the monster behind the tentacles.

He knew that he would be powerless after using [Overdrive], so he had to kill it right now.

Thus, ignoring the blood dripping from his nose, he continued using [Overdrive] and [Molecular Disintegration].

Six seconds, seven seconds, eight seconds.

'Damn… Where is it?' Bloed was anxious. He could not keep [Overdrive] for much longer.

He could feel that the monster was no very strong. At most as strong as a half-step demigod. However, it was very good at hiding, and even now, it had not revealed its main body.

Pangs of pain attacked Bloed's head one after another, and his sight had turned hazy. He was quickly approaching his limit

'Damn! Should I just disintegrate the ceiling and create a hole towards the surface?' Bloed asked himself.

But just then, Bloed looked up.

Then, a smile appeared on his lips.

"Finally, huh."

With a sigh, he deactivated [Overdrive].

The armor and lance turned into metallic sand once more, and his body which was hovering a few centimeters over the ground collapsed on the ground powerlessly.

Bloed could see Aya's rushing towards him in a panic and Isabella looking at him with a shocked, fearful, and worried expression. He also saw even more tentacles bursting out of the walls, as though they were waiting until he was weakened to come and get rid of him.

However, even when Aya, Isabella, and the other two club members turned pale, he remained calm.

Because he could feel it.

*Bam!*

Before the tentacles could reach them, a blinding ray of blue light broke through the ceiling, creating a gigantic hole that connected the laboratory to the surface.

Then, a silver-haired girl fell through the hole and landed on the ground with her back towards Bloed.

Facing the countless tentacles, the girl created an energy blade on her hand, and with an expression as cold as the coldest ice, she spoke up.

"Anything that tries to kill my master deserves to die."

As soon as the silver-haired girl finished her words, she swung her blade.

And her terrifying power was unleashed underground.

The last thing that Bloed saw before falling unconscious was a gigantic energy blade crushing everything before it.
