Chapter 228: CH 228

Cathedral Labyrinth 7


As I continued evading the tempestuous four armed attacks while also slashing back, I also threw in palm heel strikes.

〈Spatial Understanding Skill obtained〉

The moment that announcement flowed into my head, I grasped the attacks from dead space quite distinctly.
With the Insight skill and Evasion skill together, topped with martial arts-type skills and the Body Control skills, my movements rapidly grew more refined.

〈Sword King Technique Skill has leveled up〉
〈Fist King Technique Skill has leveled up〉

My sword speed became quicker.
The power of my elbow strike and palm heels clad in energy and magic power increased.

The deformed Yamato’s attacks were fierce and tempestuous because of his four arms and four legs, however, he was originally human, after all. He was unable to fully control the four extra limbs. With that being the case, he was no different from strong, fast beast.

Every time the sword I swung gleamed, one of the deformed Yamato’s grotesque arm or leg was cut off. It regenerated each time, but I realized that the speed in which it did steadily slowed down.

Whoosh! Swish!

I slashed downward from overhead, lopping his two right arms off in one go, then I did the same for his two left arms on the return swing.

I then went straight for his neck then stopped brandishing my sword. The reason why was that my body was brimming with power, and I knew that I leveled up. This namely meant the death of the deformed Yamato.

「Takumi!」

Akane came running from behind as she shrieked.
The fact that our party’s fight was over something I was aware of because of the Spatial Understanding Skill. Everyone was quiet.

The grotesque monster in front of my eyes that was once Yamato had stopped moving as if he was frozen.

「It appears this is as far as it can be. As expected, too much deformation is counterproductive, I see.」
「Fuhn!」

When I heard Pope Warvaal’s monologue, I lost my cool and threw the sword in my hand towards him.

Clang!

The outcome was that the sword pierced through to the back of the extravagant throne-like chair.
Pope Warvaal disappeared like an apparition.

「Wha?! Where’d he go!?」
「Takumi-sama! Please calm down!」

Sophia told me to calm down.

「……was he an illusion from the very beginning?」

When I looked at the armless statue-like Yamato, Akane was by his side shedding large drops of tears.

「……you’re such an idiot. That’s why I told you not to trust Sydnia too much.」
「Akane…………」
「……Takumi, could you send Yamato off before he’s swallowed by the dungeon?」

When I walked up to her, she said that with a strong will in her eyes.

「You’re okay with that?」
「Yeah, I have no idea where his soul would go, but at the very least, I’d like to see my classmate off.」

I extended my right arm towards the deformed monster that was once Yamato and invoked 『Decomposition』.
Surprisingly, even though he was deformed to such an extent, his composition wasn’t too different from that of a person. It’s logical to say that it’s close but not quite the same. However, there wasn’t a striking difference in breaking down the composition into oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium, and phosphorus when I used 『Decomposition』.

Akane wept as she bid Yamato, who was vanishing into air, farewell.


Akane and Yamato were nothing more than classmates. However, it was only natural that she would receive shock from the death of a fellow Japanese whom she had spent time with and was summoned to a different world with.
Leaving only a few traces of water on the floor, the grotesque monster that was once Yamato had vanished.
The modifications far too different from his original body and the seemingly endlessly repeated body regeneration had caused that very same body to exceed its limits and consumed his life force.
Simply put, extreme malnutrition.

「Takumi-sama, we are done here too.」
「Good work. Is anyone hurt?」

Sophia and the girls came to report the end of the battle.

「Although there are a few injuries, it would be taken care of by Akane’s magic.」
「Yes, it looked to be quite a fierce battle.」

When I looked out over everyone, Heath-san and the boys were exhausted down on the floor.

「Takumi-sama, is Akane-sama alright nya?」
「……hmm, I think she’s okay. Lulu-chan, can you stay by her side for a bit?」
「Yes nya!」

Lulu-chan ran to Akane, who continued to shed tears alone.

After having a bit of rest, we proceeded to the door that appeared behind the throne.

「Takumi, this dungeon’s core is probably ahead. If that is destroyed, this dungeon should disappear.」

It is said that a dungeon dies when the dungeon core in its innermost place is destroyed. This is a severely troubled country, but there’s no way we could leave the heart of a city Otherworldified.

If we take the core, it might be possible to make another dungeon in a different place, but I don’t see the value in increasing the dungeons that have a risk of overflowing.

「Let’s break the core.」

If the core is auctioned, it could be said the winning bid would be staggeringly large sum. That is because a dungeon is not just harmful, but it is also a source of supplies. However, we were deliberately smashing it.

When I opened the door, there was a small room surrounded by walls of a white mineral. In the center of the room was a dodgeball-sized black stone, likely the dungeon core.

Everyone gathered a slight distance from me and watched.

「Hah!」

Clink!

When I swung down and cut the core right in half, the room was engulfed in light and we were forcefully transferred away from the dungeon.

Ruuuuuuuuumble!!

Forcefully teleported to a place where we could see the Cathedral, a thundering roar accompanied the Cathedral as it fell to the ground before our eyes.

While the soldiers of Sydnia that encircled the Cathedral Dungeon were moving about in confusion, I confirmed that everyone was here and escaped by Short Warping out of the city.
