Book 13: Chapter 5
Book 13: Chapter 5
Heres the chapter, enjoy~
My mind was not able to process the situation in front of me.
Because what was standing in front of me now was definitely me.
It was also the me before the level up
For a moment, I thought it was a dream or some kind of misunderstanding, but then Kuro inside me shouted in surprise.
Hey, hey, whats this situation? You look different, but I can see it. Its you. No, why is there another you? Why do you look different?
Kuro also did not seem to understand the situation and was puzzled.
When we were at such a loss for words, the me in front of me opened his mouth.
I dont know why you look like that, but you are me, right?
I-if you say it like that, its me! Why is there another me?
But the me in front of me does not answer my question.
And then.
Sorry.
Wha-!?
The next moment, I thought he had disappeared instantly, and then he suddenly slipped into my bosom, and then he thrust his hand out like he was going to pierce my heart.
And when I looked closely, I saw a purple aura on his hand!
Thats spiritual power!
The power the me was using had to be spiritual power.
Certainly, I am now able to use spiritual power, but unlike the me in front of me, I didnt even know that spiritual power existed before I leveled up, so if the person in front of me was the me before the level up, there was no way he could use spiritual power.
I was surprised, and in contrast, he was also looking at me with wide eyes.
Y-you didnt use your spiritual power, yet you were able to avoid me!
Indeed, Im not using my powers right now but if he knows who I am now, he must also know that my physical abilities have improved as I leveled up in the other world.
But from the looks of it, he doesnt seem to know that.
What in the world is this me in front of me?
W-wait a minute! Who in the world are you! Why are you attacking me?
!
However, he did not seem to be willing to discuss the matter and resumed his attack.
He spread out his hands, and countless purple spheres floated between them.
Spiritual Ball!
Kuh!
The attack was none other than the technique Kuuya-san used against monsters in the underworld.
But I dont know how to use this technique.
In other words, he is more skilled than I am in the handling of spiritual power.
The masses of spiritual power poured toward me like machine guns, but I kept dodging them by activating my Magic Armor and Holy King Authority.
Whats with that power? As I thought, youll be the biggest obstacle to me!
O-obstacle!
Seeing my power, he widened his eyes, but he soon increased the number of his attacks.
Not only did he increase his spiritual power, but he also used a lot of other spiritual power techniques.
Spiritual Chain!
Wha-!?
A purple chain suddenly erupted from under my feet and wrapped around my arms and legs, pinning me tightly in place.
I tried to escape, but it didnt budge.
Its no use. It is a chain made of spiritual power. No ordinary force can break it.
In other words, this chain is like a kind of sorcery and cannot be destroyed without using spiritual power
If so, then!
Haaaaaaah!
What? You can also use spiritual power?
The me in front of me was amazed that I was able to destroy the chain by using my spiritual power, probably because I had been fighting with powers other than spiritual power until now.
And then he charged straight at me.
For now, Ill just suppress you and let us talk!
If thats the case! The Gate of the Underworld!
I closed the distance in a split second, but he gathered up the spiritual power in his hands and clapped his hands together.
Then, the shockwave of the spiritual power spread out at once with the sound and attacked me.
I couldnt help but move away from him, but that was not the end of his attack.
When he spread his hands again, a deep vortex of darkness appeared in between them.
And when he slammed the vortex to the ground, a dreadful, rusty gate appeared from the ground, emanating a terrifying atmosphere.
When the gate quietly opened, a large number of demons flooded out from within!
Wha-!?
I I have to rule this world!
What?
I was surprised by his unexpected words, but the demons that emerged from the gate attacked me without regard.
Im finding it more and more necessary to listen to what you have to say.
I took out my [Omni-Sword] and held it quietly.
I slashed through the Spiritual-Mystical Break and destroyed the restraint at the same time.
As it was, I used Master Usagis skill, Three Divine Steps, to close the distance and slipped into his chest.
Oh no!
Ohhhhhhhh!
I put all my strength into it and slammed my fist into his stomach.
He seemed to quickly strengthen his abdomen with his spiritual and mystical powers, but he was unable to withstand my full force and was blown away.
Ugh N-no way
Its my win.
When I thrust my sword at him and declared that, he bit his lip in frustration and fell to the ground.
Hey!
Hah hah After all, just like that time I remained weak and couldnt do anything about it
I couldnt say anything as I looked at him, who sadly told me so.
I knew. I was wrong and there was no way I could control the people living in this world and offer them up to him I was doing the same thing as he was I knew it.
..
Still I wanted to reclaim my world once again
He was desperately trying to hold back his tears.
I guess he was also living a peaceful life like me until this him appeared.
Unlike me, he is skilled in the handling of spiritual power and may have been able to use spiritual power from birth.
It is even possible that he was born in a parallel world full of sorcery users, just like Kuuya-san.
He staggered to his feet and bowed his head to me.
Im sorry I got you involved in my selfishness.
More importantly, what are you going to do now?
It seemed that he had been resurrected by someone else, and the reason for this was that someone wanted him to rule this world.
But he was defeated by me, and he was unable to fulfill that condition.
I think you know this, but if I fail, I will be erased again. My life is only in his hands. This life will soon be over.
..
This was the moment when I was searching for the words to say to him.
You will not be alone, though.
!?
W-why are you here?
Without any sound or sign, a man suddenly appeared in front of us.
The man was dressed in a suit and a plain mask, and above all, he was completely unrecognizable.
Thats why I couldnt take any position.
Goodbye.
The mans piercing hand was thrust out toward me, who was defenseless.
Just when that hand was about to touch me.
Ggh!
The other me protected me and was pierced in the chest by that man.
The man looked at him for a moment, and his eyes widened.
Youre stubborn, arent you?
Get away from heeereeee!
Oops.
I immediately drew my [Omni-Sword] and slashed at the man, but he lightly avoided the attack.
Well, well, well you have a rather troublesome weapon
The man then stares at the weapon in my hand and turns away.
Ive confirmed its existence, at any rate. I think its time for me to leave.
Wait!
In order not to let him escape, I activated my trump card, the divine authority, and closed the distance between me and the man in an instant, but
The next target is this world.
The man told me that much and vanished at a speed faster than the divine authority, again without any sound or sign of his presence.
I approached the other me in a hurry, keeping a wary eye on the surroundings.
H-hey! Hang in there! R-right, I have the Complete Recovery Grass Juice!
I took out the juice and tried to give it to him, but he stopped me with a trembling hand.
II cant be saved anymore
Why the hell did you say that?
I-Im already dead Thats why
As he said, his body was already dead, and when I looked closely, I saw that there was no blood flowing.
And also, his body was gradually beginning to disappear as particles.
I was stunned, but he turned a powerful gaze on me.
H-hear me out. That thing is our enemy. Next time, hell come after this world But dont let him do what he wants again.
He laughed softly.
Dont worry Im stronger than you Ill protect everyone
After saying this at the end, his body had all turned into particles and wrapped around my body, and then rose up into the sky and disappeared.
