Volume 5 Chapter 34 Turning Point
Demon King Dostoevsky swung his instant-death demon sword for a killing blow.
If it hits, even Lawrence is finished. No way to survive....
But Lawrence doesn't flinch. He faces the strike head-on and takes it.
The enemy's blade drives deep into his shoulder.
The sword stops halfway, caught on Lawrence's steel-hard muscle.
Not that it matters.
'HEHEHEH──! You TOOK a direct hit from the DEATH sword, didn't you?! You're DONE for! This is the END for you!'
Yeah, once the attack lands, the victim dies.
No exceptions.
But....
GRAB...!
'N-NO way! This CAN'T be──!'
Even with the death sword jammed in his shoulder, Lawrence... is still alive.
'IMPOSSIBLE! Absolutely IMPOSSIBLE! WHY?! WHY doesn't my SOUL-FORGED fiend sword work?! The CURSED blade that ALWAYS kills──why won't it DO anything?!'
"It's simple... My will is STRONGER than yours...!"
Lawrence grabs Dostoevsky's hand.
Doesn't matter how much he tries to pull away, there's no escape.
It's like ramming a knife into a boulder; it's stuck. The sword won't budge.
"I've got the HOPES of everyone riding on me! The FEELINGS of my precious people are with me! My life isn't just MINE! No way your FRAGILE little attack is going to finish me off──I WON'T DIE!"
If you want the simple reason why Lawrence survived that demon sword, it's because he's the Great Hero.
His body burns through poison way faster than any human, pushing the instant-kill venom out before it can do a thing.
But Lawrence doesn't know any of that.
The only reason he's still standing is exactly what he just said.
"DAMN it! LET go! SHIT!"
Deadly poison keeps pumping from the demon sword, flooding into him.
Lawrence just clenches his fist and waits.
He's waiting for that one instant his master finds a way out.
And then....
"It's HERE...!"
Lawrence opened his eyes wide and unleashed a full-force punch aimed right at Dostoevsky.
He just poured all his strength into the blow.
That's all it took...
'GRAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!'
Dostoevsky spat out blood.
"! It's a hit... that means..."
The eyes of the healer, Luna, lit up.
Lawrence nodded strongly.
"Aah! Mr. Act...! We DID it...!"
