Volume 3 Chapter 55 ACT.90 The Battle of Leone (II)
What she took out was a rope.
And it was not just any ordinary rope.
It was a very strong and special rope made of various materials, used on large ships in the neighboring country, and it was hard to degrade.
She doesn't know why this ended up as scrap in this slum, and even she, who chose it, doesn't know about its condition.
Leone simply just took it because it looked the strongest.
You could say it was just a coincidence.
But the Holy Knight who serves God, and even higher ranked as a Purge Knight, had miracles (coincidences) on her side.
She wrapped the rope she pulled out tightly around the neck of the Reincarnator, using her shoulder and joints.
"Aah, gyaah!"
The Reincarnator tried to scream in panic.
"──guh!"
Leone bit down on the end of the rope and pulled it tight all at once.
The rope wrapped tightly around the thick neck of the Reincarnator, digging into the flesh.
Trying to remove the rope from around its neck, the Reincarnator's arms were still restrained by Leone and couldn't move.
Seeing this, Rai, from a distance, understood Leone's intention.
"The cheat (special ability) of physical transformation can compensate for physical loss, but nothing else can be compensated."
For example, poison, for example, immune disorders (allergies).
Attacks that aren't simple physical damage are hard to counter.
You could try gouging out the affected area, but without proper medical knowledge, that might make things worse.
The same goes for direct damage to the brain.
How do you deal with the brain dying from oxygen deprivation using a transformation cheat?
The lungs can't send oxygen because the neck is being choked.
Since there's no loss to compensate for, the cheat doesn't trigger.
If it really had a full transformation ability, it could've made a new respiratory system—or extra arms to break the hold.
But the monster isn't doing that.
It can't.
Rai had already felt something was off.
Despite having a cheat that should let it reshape its body freely, this Reincarnator still clung to a mostly human form.
It used the cheat just to repair injuries and bulk up—not much else.
In short, it hadn't fully used its cheat.
And now, Rai was sure of it.
But the one who truly amazed him was Leone.
At this crucial moment, she figured out a way to bring down the monster—something Rai himself hadn't thought of.
Just as foam started bubbling from the monster's mouth, Leone muttered to herself.
"──I wonder how much time I spent imagining, killing my younger brother who has the same cheat (special ability) over and over again thousands of times!"
The content felt almost like an answer to her.
