Volume 6 Chapter 6 The End Of Daily Life
The next morning. I quietly slipped out of the bed, along with the other 3, and went for a morning walk after sweating a little.
It was a refreshing morning. The bright sunlight was seeping through the gaps in the trees. The air in the early morning was clear, white, and transparent.
In the pleasant forest of such a morning, I unexpectedly spotted a figure. A man with a hood covering his entire body. Naturally, as if fated, I turned my feet towards him.
"You must be Wade the 'Slow'."
His words made me raise an eyebrow slightly. But there was no trace of mockery in them.
Suddenly, an arm emerged from the hooded figure. A muscular, log-like arm. I realized that he possessed extraordinary strength.
"Who are you?"
"I wish to have a match. Wade the 'Slow'."
I swallowed my saliva. Just facing him made me nervous like never before. That's why something chilling ran down my spine.
Without thinking, I nodded.
"Thank you. Let's begin."
The man assumed a stance. I did the same. I could summon the iron lump sword from my house in an instant. And forming the crystal swords was as simple as clapping my left hand.
I chanted.
"'Brahma,' Object Point Shift."
Chakra activated. The Ajna chakra awakened as a second eye, and the Anahata chakra beat as a second heart. With gravity magic, the iron lump sword flew out from the warehouse in my house.
The man laughed.
"Come. Let's start by facing each other head-on."
"It's the first time I've been underestimated since reaching the gold rank. Don't regret it."
"No chance."
Even though I glared at him, he seemed unfazed. I simply said, "Fine," and flicked my finger on the ground.
The iron lump sword pierced through the air, digging into the ground, scattering soil, and standing tall.
"It's a good weapon."
"Say what you want."
I clapped my left hand. Multiple crystal swords formed. Then I unsheathed the iron lump sword and assumed a stance.
I took a deep breath. Calming my mind, I let my whole body surge with energy.
If he's going to face me head-on, I'll unleash my maximum power. I'll increase my physical abilities with Anahata Chakra, target the most vulnerable part of a man with Ajna Chakra, make my iron lump sword as light as possible, and enhance its destructive power with repulsion. Just before impact, I'll make it as heavy as possible.
Of course, I won't forget the crystal sword. The crystal sword is deadly even if it's just touched. It's almost like it's my true intention. I'll make all of them appear at once and attack.
Finally, I'll use the gravity magic on the man himself. First, I'll add his self-weight to the ground, making him stick to the ground. If my iron lump sword and crystal sword aren't enough, I'll use Point Shift to swing him around.
"Huuuuuuuu――――――"
I exhale. I hold my iron lump sword on my shoulder and leave the crystal sword scattered on the ground to taunt him.
The man stands calmly in front of me, as if to say "I'll come from anywhere, silently." He's excellent. I'll give him a show.
"Let's go!"
My foot lifts off the ground.
"Object weight Reduce, Repulsion"
My feet bounce off the ground. I'm literally repelled from the ground and approach the man with my iron lump sword, which has become as light as a feather.
"Object Point Shift"
At the same time, multiple crystal swords are fired at the man. "Hmm" says the man, looking at them. I speak the curse words again.
"Object weight Increase"
The speed remains the same, and my iron lump sword becomes heavier all at once. Point Shift is a sure hit. At the same time, the man says "Oh?" His body has become so heavy that it's difficult to support it with his own strength.
"Repulsion."
I add more speed with repulsion, making it a decisive blow. The repulsion force, which I prepared with Ajna Chakra, will transform into destructive power at the moment of impact...
And the man bowed his head.
"That's it, I see. Such a thing is possible?"
A shock ran through my arm and to my entire body. I was amazed by the iron lump sword that was stopped by one hand, and the crystal sword that was shattered to pieces by the other hand.
"Huh...?"
"Now, it's my turn."
The man easily snapped the iron lump sword with his fingers and then threw it, along with me. I let go of the iron lump sword and clung to the ground. My shoes scraped the ground, raising a cloud of dust.
On the other side, the man raised his fist.
"Let's go."
I caught a glimpse of death in his figure.
"――――――――――!"
I felt like I was going to die. I have the Anahata Chakra, so I won't actually die. But that's how I felt. There was something there that made me feel that way.
That ignited my fighting instinct.
"Ku, kuhaha, hahaha!"
Laughter burst out naturally. The man made a strange face and raised his fist even higher.
Ah, it's been a while. The feeling of impending death. The despair of facing an enemy much stronger than myself. The liberating feeling of having nothing to lose. Here, I can give it my all until I die.
The moment I thought that, my magic seal grew. Object ―― Repulsion. I could now apply the repulsive force that was only on me to everything.
But, this isn't enough. It still won't reach him.
I glared at the man's essence with my Ajna Chakra. Vaguely visible was the shadow of someone behind him. But I couldn't see anything beyond that. Can't see it? I'll look. I'll see through it.
My brain hurts as if it's being tightly squeezed. Pain means I'm grasping it with my senses. Then I should turn it into chakra here.
Blink. In that moment, I poured magic power into the sensation I grasped. The chakra of my brain was constructed. Sahasrara Chakra. The second brain resides in me.
And the second brain, Sahasrara Chakra, made me understand everything.
"Ku, kuhaha. Nice, it's the best."
Blood drips from my nose. I might have pushed my Sahasrara Chakra to its limit on first activation. I wiped my nose and stretched out my hands.
I called the iron lump sword to my right hand. It was my beloved sword, easily broken by a man. I gripped the handle and used gravity magic to gather the broken pieces and the blade of the iron lump sword directly below me.
"'Brahma'"
My Sahasrara Chakra helped me understand what to do. The weapon was damaged, but it was just a change in form. The essence remained unchanged.
So, I just had to reshape it a bit.
I crushed the pieces with the cross-section of the iron lump sword and reconstructed it with the 'Rule of All Creation' of the Sahasrara Chakra.
"Hmm..."
Ignoring the man's impressed voice, I focused on my left hand next. This was even easier. The essential nature of the crystal sword was its crystalline form, being a sword was secondary.
So, I just had to change it to a form that could be held with one hand. I gathered and concentrated the shattered pieces with gravity magic and then shaped it with the 'Rule of All Creation'.
In my left hand, the pieces were reborn as a crystal greatsword.
I laughed.
"Alright, come at me."
"―――Alright. Then, take this."
The man shook his fist.
The air in front of the man distorted. My Sahasrara Chakra saw it as a shockwave. I crossed the swords in preparation.
The 2 greatswords clashed as I yelled.
"HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"
I let out a battle cry. A wall-like shockwave stood in front of the 2 greatswords. It would be pulverized if I took it head-on. I braced myself so hard that my feet dug into the ground.
"HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"
I clashed with all my might. I mastered magic and yoga, using them all.
I weakened the shockwave with repulsion magic, found the vulnerable spots with the Ajna Chakra, increased the weight of the iron lump sword, infused magic into the crystal greatsword, elevated my physical abilities to superhuman levels with the Anahata Chakra, and optimized all my movements with the Sahasrara Chakra.
"HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA――――!"
Full power. It was literally full power. There was no room for not using this technique. I mustered all my strength to resist the shock wave.
And I won.
The shock wave reached its limit. Two greatswords split the shock wave. Countless small shock waves spread behind me, shattering trees as they went.
I glanced around. For dozens of meters behind me, only wood and leaves rained down.
I turned to the man.
"You monster."
The man answered me.
"You're no better."
We both felt the fighting spirit, but this was just a match. We both lowered our weapons.
"You lived up to your nickname, Wade the 'Slow'. 'Once you see him, everything in the world seems slow.' That's why 'Slow.' I've never seen a warrior who becomes decades stronger than an ordinary person in an instant."
"You're a monster too. No weapons. No magic. I didn't think I'd die just from being hit by your brute strength."
Ajna Chakra asserts. The attack was just a punch. Just a punch that created a shock wave and made me prepare for death. What else do you call that but abnormal?
I asked the man.
"Tell me your name. It's unfair that only I know yours."
"You should know. You're not that clueless."
"I want to hear it from you."
When I urged him, the man laughed and took off his hood.
Underneath was a handsome young man's face. It seemed ordinary, but it had the power to overcome many battles.
"Then, let me introduce myself. My name is Sieg. 'Fist of the Dragon' Sieg. I am the commander of the Dragon army, which will launch an invasion war in the Karditsa region soon."
I couldn't help but smile when I heard that. This was the enemy this time. The strongest enemy to defeat.
Fist of the Dragon said.
"'Slow'. I'll definitely meet you again at the end of the war. By that time, how strong you've become. I'm looking forward to it."
Fist of the Dragon turned around and lightly bent his knees, jumping up with intense force, as if a small rocket had taken off. A cloud of dirt rose up.
I laughed dryly.
"Ah, ah. ――This is, quite necessary."
I picked up the iron lump sword. It was reconstructed with the Sahasrara Chakra, and the blade shone like a mirror.
And then I couldn't help but smile.
"What's wrong with me, that look."
I looked at my own eyes through the blade. Unrelated to the Ajna Chakra, my eyes sparkled terribly, shining brightly.
