Chapter 221: Immortality Or Eternity Second Half

His body shrieked when his head and body separated. It was like his body tried to grab the decapitated head and attach it back but I didn't allow it to do it. Before it landed on the ground, I made a finger gun on my fingers and channel my mana, shooting out freezing magic to the head, causing it to freeze like an ice chunk. It was frozen and the moment it landed on the ground, I shot another magic but this time, I used the overloaded component of the electric element and shoot it to the frozen head. The head was so fragile that it didn't even remain frozen for long and exploded to pieces.

"Is he dead now?!" Kurai frowned as she saw everything happened before her eyes.

"I don't think so," I said and glance at the headless body. This body might have been missing a head but it's still alive and well that I can still feel its body functions still doing well.

I was about to do something with the body of Dr. Katakura too but I was surprised when it suddenly shakes wildly that I have to retreat from the body and halt what I was originally planning to do.

"What is happening?!" Kurai's fur is standing up meaning she is in a state of panic seeing what is happening on Dr. Katakura's body.

Seeing the abnormality, I didn't wait and see what will happen to the body and started to do some action and try to stop it from whatever it was about to do. I transformed my weapon back into a staff and cast the ice magic to the body. But I didn't expect it to dodge and continue its wriggling movement on the other side. I tried it again but it only repeated the actions that I have to repeat a lot of times but none hits.

"What the f*ck, how come I keep on missing despite my predictions?!" I grit my teeth as I look at the body dodging all of my attacks. I am quite sure that they will hit but they didn't and just hit the floor.

Then, the body of Dr. Katakura started to wriggle hard and the skin started to expand like something was about to break through the skin. It was like looking at a corpse that is currently acting as a nest for a baby alien or monster. It looks disgusting.

"Maybe you should just cut it down?" Kurai suggested.

"Good point, there is no need to use magic if I can just cut him to pieces!"

Changing my versatile weapon into a katana, I quickly close my distance to the body and perform my iaido draw stance and I closed my eyes to remember all of the teachings and all of the practices I did for the katana. It might have dulled from not practicing the technique but I can still do the half-*ssed version of it.

"[Thousand Petal Cut]!"

SWISH SWISH SWISH SWISH SLASH!

I slashed in the air while my eyes are closed.

CLINK!

Once the attack was done, I return the katana to the scabbard and I slowly opened my eyes. I didn't expect to cut the body down to pieces but it was revealed to me that I have indeed successfully finished cutting the body to pieces. The body was cut to pieces.

"Wow! How did you do that?!"

I didn't answer. Although I did complete it flawlessly, I suddenly felt the pang of backlash pain from doing it. It was like I have done something that I shouldn't have done carelessly.

Since the bastard seems to be still alive, quickly cast a spell on the remains and freeze them all. I can't risk it so it is better for these to disappear completely.

CRACK! BANG!

They freeze and exploded like popcorn after a few seconds of being frozen. I sighed as the situation was finally over. Although there is not really a dangerous monster I have faced and Dr. Katakura did not even prove his immortality for too long, I have to still find my father.

I left after the battle with Kurai to dwell deeper but then, I suddenly felt an extreme bloodlust that I can feel it seeping on my skin. 

"Did you really think I will die by your petty abilities? Remember that I am an immortal being! Even if you kill me multiple times, I will regenerate and regenerate again and again!"

The two of us looked back and saw a lump of flesh slowly forming and making shape behind us.

"These f*cking monstrosity, so he can still regenerate out of nothingness even after being sliced to pieces and reduced to bits of ice?"

Lumps of flesh, blood and other kinds of tissues gather like it was being formed and combined together and as soon as they were done, they started to return to the main body.

"My body is immortal, and death is not on my vocabulary. Your efforts are futile!"

Then, I realized, the lump of flesh is not forming into a human being, instead, it seems to be forming into some sort of monstrosity. A pile of flesh that seems to be looking like a sludge of meat.

"Eh? What is happening to my body?! To my perfect body?! Why am I looking like this?! What have you done to my body!?"

Based on his reaction, his transformation to this abomination means he didn't plan to look like this. I thought he did plan it to defeat and kill me but my assumptions are wrong. He might have not died from my attacks and still managed to regenerated, preventing his death, but it seems like it is not progressing smoothly.

Seeing him still regenerating, I started to cut him down repeatedly while releasing cold energy and inserting it into his body every slash. And as expected, he keeps on regenerating. However, I didn't stop and continue my ability to manifest and just keep on inserting the ice element.

"Dr. Katakura, have you ever thought of eternity?"

"Eternity? Hah! Immortality can always attain eternity! As someone who lives long enough, you can say an immortal can live for eternity!"

"It seems you have not understood the real meaning of eternity, you bastard. It seems I have to teach you what it was really so be ready to listen and make your nonexistent brain imprint this knowledge!"

"Ha! A mere mortal has no means of understanding what eternity means! You are not qualified to say it to me!"

SNAP!

The fleshy meat of the immortal body of Dr. Katakura started to produce Ice crystals on his skin.

"So you are trying to do the same thing to my body again? It's useless, as someone who can regenerate, again and again, you will not be able to dispose of me!"

"Who said I am going to do it again to you? I am just seasoning you with something cold. You would taste and feel bland if you stay like that. It would be better to get rid of pathogens that live in hot places."

"Huh? What are you talking about?"

I pointed the Versatile Weapon into Dr. Katakura's regenerating body.

"You want to experience eternity right? Then, experience the first-hand meaning of eternity."

My versatile weapon started to wriggle and in a few seconds, a black shadowy figure appeared on my weapon.

"Just as you know, true eternity lies beyond what you can just experience if you are immortal. Eternity is the memories of the important people to you. You might not be here in this world after your death but your legacy is what will be passed down for eternity to your ancestors. However, since you have a different taste of eternity, then I will also present you something too. Eternal Punishment. DEVOUR!"

"Whatever you are planning to do, you won't succeed!"

The shadowy dragon figure appeared and opened its mouth. It then bites the abomination that is Dr.Katakura and started to savor him to pieces.

GWARRKK!

Dr. Katakura disappeared after my versatile weapon swallowed him. He couldn't survive it due to how my versatile weapon devoured him to pieces. Not only that, it seems that some parts of his body are not worth keeping that my weapon throws some parts of it.

"If you managed to live for eternity, then celebrate your eternity to death."

And due to that, Dr. Katakura disappeared from this world. As for the stomach of my Versatile Weapon, it seems like any living being swallowed by the Versatile weapon is automatically killed. Immortal or not immortal, once swallowed by my weapon, you would either reduce to nothingness and dust.

So, does that mean this is all over? No, for me, it is not yet done. My father is still not around but I can now search for him far and wide. I refuse to believe he is in this mansion. However, there is only one thing I need to do and that is to get rid of this place and make this place great again.

"Let's go Kurai.. He already achieved the way to eternity."
