Chapter 289 - Episode Thirty-Six - The Great God Kudor (10)

The huge tentacles made of Hydeem Magimetal that extend from around me are lifted up with their tips pointing to the sky in a big way.

Eight parallel deployments of Abel Whip.

When I lowered my wand, the metal mass flexed its entire length.

I pull it back from where I hit and give it a follow-up blow.

A barrage of huge masses, far beyond the limits of human perception, devastates the Great God Kudor.

Even I, who had engraved the movement formula, hadnt been able to follow the trajectory of the metal whip at all.

I have conditioned it to a certain extent, but the rest of the formula is designed to destroy the target while scattering it with random numbers.

What seemed to be the epidermis of Kudor danced with a dull blue glow.

The floor of the ancient cathedral shattered, and huge fragments leaped up and danced about at high speed.

However, the main body of Kudor does not move in the slightest.

The tentacles, also wriggling with supernatural speed, caught and flicked the Abel Whip.

Kudor clearly had a lot of energy left.

I had my hands full just maintaining the Abel Whip, but at this rate, Id be in a dilemma.

I put back the World Tree Ortem, conjured a magic circle, and prepared for the double chant and Ortem call.

Im sure the Abel Saw will hit Kudor now that hes forcing her to defend herself with her tentacles.

Ill take this opportunity to hit her with two improved Abel Saws at the same time with the dual chanting of the World Tree Ortem.

Even so, I probably wont be able to defeat Kudor.

Kudor is too tough. At best, it would be able to sever a few of the tentacles that grow inexhaustibly.

However, it would be a good chance to create an opening.

In the meantime, Ill hit it with Levis spear.

If I cant finish him off with that, theres no way I can defeat Kudor.

If he goes on alert for the spear, I will be completely helpless.

The World Tree Ortem lined up beside me.

I lowered the accuracy of the eight Abel Whips, and instead slowed down my attacks, reconfiguring my magic formation to focus on checking and defending.

And the less I focus on that, the more I prepare for the double chanting of the Abel Saw.

I drew a magic circle in my mind and replaced the points I noticed in the blow I had just fired at Kudor, as well as any problems that could be easily improved.

Shorten the formula to reduce the activation time, and reduce the rate of decay of magic power in the process.

In order to increase the rotation speed of the Abel saw, I replaced the wind manipulation formula with a different one suitable for the initial stage, the middle stage when acceleration is needed, and the latter stage when stabilization is needed.

After completing it, I ran a quick simulation in my brain, found two problems, corrected them again, and transferred the magic circle into the air.

I glanced over at Kudor.

The battle is evenly matched. The tentacles and whips, still flying at invisible speeds, bounce off each other and destroy the floor.

One of the normal Ortems leaps up and sidesteps the debris coming at me, doing a forward roll.

Its going well.

As I thought, switching to a defensive focus was a success.

How naive.

Kudors voice.

At the same time, one of Kudors tentacles and one of Abelwhips stop.

One of the eight tentacles was completely trapped.

I knew what you were after when you brought back that special doll. As with the twenty-one parallel magic circles, the intention is to have the doll take over the process of magic circles activation and increase the number of magic circles activated, right? At the same time, your metal tentacles have turned to defense. But your accuracy was lacking.

I, Ive been seen through.

Its too linear a thought. Its not a bad move, but if I push too hard, like this, I can break it down just as easily. Youve only ever fought lower-ranked opponents, havent you?

I could see Abel Whip being caught, snapped and shattered.

It seems that Kudor threw the remaining part near the base to the other Abel Whip and used that movement as a starting point to attack at once.

After a series of metallic sounds, one of Kudors huge tentacles, over a meter in diameter, appeared right in front of me.

Youve rushed the game. This is a dead end.

Abel Whip wont make it in time.

I cant just start a new spell now.

The one who intervened was the black six-armed Ortem, Asura 5000.

The Asura 5000, which flew in at high speed, met Kudors tentacles head-on.

Pressed by the power of the tentacles, the floor of the cathedral, which should have boasted a high level of hardness, was easily rolled up, forcing it to retreat.

The Asura 5000 thrust two of its arms deep into the floor to immobilize itself, and moved forward, the light in its eyes intensifying.

Hmm !?

Kudors tentacles retreated slightly as he was pushed back by Asura 5000.

I-It was stopped ?

Thank God, it stopped

Thats the Asura 5000 for you.

It was a close call.

I took advantage of the fact that the World Tree Ortem, my greatest bodyguard, had her hands full and the accuracy of my Abel Whip was lacking, and went on the offensive.

The two joints of Asura 5000s arms cracked and shattered.

The tips of its arms fell to the ground.

I felt my eyes widen spontaneously.

The durability of the Asura 5000 was not enough to withstand the push and shove of Kudor.

A moment later, the tentacles that had been pushing against each other suddenly relaxed their power.

The body of the Asura 5000 was thrown forward slightly, as if it had been hit in the air.

As soon as Asura 5000s stance collapsed, the tentacles swung sideways.

The large trunk of the Asura 5000 snapped.

It flew through the air, scattering wood shavings, and was suspended in midair, impaled on the shattered wall of the ancient cathedral.

I bit my lip.

Even though Kudor had so much power, he was not proud of it.

Even against opponents who can be defeated by force, he uses strategic tactics to finish them off with the least cost.

From the mythology, I had taken it for granted that he was an incarnation of violence, but the reality is quite different.

The damage to the Asura 5000 was terrible.

I dont know if I can restore it to its original state.

The Asura 5000 had been my comrade in arms since I carved it in the city of Lomarn.

Pushing down the urge to scream, I completed the transcription of Abel Saws magic circle that I had drawn in my brain with the time gained from the struggle of the Asura 5000.

Then I continued to chant in an unhurried manner.

Wind.

With the chant, I raise my wand.

At the same time, the World Tree Ortem emits a voice that mimics my own, and an equivalent magic circle unfolds.

Wind.

With the double voice, two magic circles with huge and detailed formulas appear.

The twin vortexes of wind, controlled by the magic, form a vacuum circle.

As the wind circles rotate at high speed, the space on the other side appears distorted.

The sharpened wind had evolved into a gigantic blade without any reality.

As I lowered my wand, the two disks, each specialized in cutting everything it touched, flew in their own unique trajectory towards Kudor.

That thing from before, and now two of them! How much magic do you have in your body?

Kudor is bringing some of the tentacles that were on the offensive back into her guard.

Shes probably trying to catch them again and divert them backwards.

The whip of the Hydeem Magimetal strikes at Kudors tentacles as she relaxes her attack.

Wha-, Damn it ! This!

Kudors tentacles had abandoned their defenses and gone on the offensive in order to take advantage of my attempt to activate the double Abel Saw.

The move to go from there to defense was a major break in the battle and an opening to take advantage of.

As a result, Kudors posture finally collapsed slightly in the face of the Abel Whips onslaught against the disk of the deadly blade that was closing in on him.

Kudors tentacles, still in the collapsed position, caught the two Abel Saws with their outstretched tentacles.

A series of Abel Whip blows came at the tentacles that were trying to catch them.

One of the Abel Saws was swept away, cutting down the wall of the ancient cathedral and causing it to collapse anew.

However, Abel Whip struck the base of the tentacle that was catching the second Abel Saw.

The tentacle bent wide, and the unleashed Abel Saw stabbed into the side of Kudors huge monocular, gouging out a chunk of flesh.

For a brief moment, Kudors entire body convulsed.

Gu-Guh Why, why are you going this far for human beings ?

Kudor twists and catches it with his tentacles, and somehow manages to catch the second shot of the Abel Saw.

The Abel Whip, with its faded markings, wraps around Kudors tentacles and entangles them, restraining him mercilessly.

Kudor struggled, and the metal whip was pulled wide, one popping and snapping.

With the rest of the whips, the restraint would last three seconds.

That was enough.

I raise my wand, and from the Hydeem magimetal spreading around me, a giants arm emerges.

I switch my wand to one hand, spread my free hand in the air, and cast a spell.

On the back of my hand, the summoning emblem of Levis spear, the emblem of the spear, shone.

A huge holy spear appears in the hands of the Hydeem Magimetal giant, shining with a blue glow.

As I put magic power into the back of my hand, the glow of the holy spear increased in tandem, and soon its outline was too dazzling to be seen.

The human body growing out of the mass of Kudors flesh opens its eyes.

Unlike the grotesque lower part, the fantastic beauty of the human eye is astonishing.

Where did you get that? How could you have his spear, which even I have lost track of since I defeated him?

Kudor asked. There was doubt and indignation in his voice.

Im sorry, but I dont have the time or inclination to respond to that.

I said where did you get that!

Kudor shouted angrily.

Please, let this be the end!

Kudor, still trapped in Abel Whips restraints, was attacked by Levis spear, which had turned into a bundle of light, trying to pierce his body.
