World's Fastest Level up!

◇◆◇

Although it was indeed a one-on-one battle, a fierce battle that utilized everything in the area has begun. Every time a magic spell fired, the atmosphere trembled. And in the middle of such a situation, I ran.

“—Ugh!”

Every time I transferred Cain’s magic using Peace Ruler, a large amount of magic power flowed from the Cursed to me to replenish the consumed magic power. However, perhaps because the one who wielded the sword wasn’t Claire, who was its real owner, or maybe because of another reason, every time the magic power entered my body, a terrible pain that couldn’t be described with words, assaulted me.

Even so, I will not stop. I couldn’t stop. Because I know if I stopped even once, everything I had done would be meaningless.

That is why I will turn even pain into a drive and keep pushing forward!

And looking at me, Cain shouted without even bothering to hide his frustration,

“Impossible! There is no way such a thing could happen! To think my strongest magic was defeated in such a way! I won’t allow you to do as you like anymore!”

Cain most likely understood intuitively that he shouldn’t get close to the current me. Hence, he continued to deploy his magic one after another without giving up, no matter how many times I took control of them. 50, 100, 200– then 500. The amount of magic he deployed even surpassed the amount of magic I could control at the same time. Moreover, some of them weren’t aimed at me, but Hana and the others.

However–

“You won’t be able to,”

I have vowed. To protect them!contemporary romance

Hence, even if I couldn’t control everything at the same time—!

“I just have to make them cancel each other!”

“Wha?!”

I controlled half of the magic spell released and hit the other half with them. As a result, numerous magic attacks canceled each other, causing a violent earthquake to echo throughout the room and a shock wave to sweep over the battlefield. Then, I ran through that battlefield and– finally closing in on Cain. In other words, my blade has reached a distance where I could reach him.

“Shit!”

Cain, who saw me swinging my blade at him, immediately generated a blood armor that covered his body. In this short time, he probably already noticed that I couldn’t transfer magic that was worn by a human. The blood armor was very thick and clearly harder than the blood wall. However, it doesn’t matter! Because I will destroy all of that!

“ORAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!”

The silver sword and the blue sword flashed at the same time. That consecutive attack surpassed the speed of sound, and eventually the silver and blue lights were mixed. They became a massive wave and rushed towards Cain ragingly.

Although the effect of [Resilience] is indeed big, as expected, in terms of close combat, I was simply stronger than him. Cain tried to stop my attack with his magic, but I instantly seized control of it, rendering it ineffective. Then, finally, the blood armor that Cain wore was destroyed completely.

With this, Cain has nothing to protect his body. Which means, one more blow. I can defeat him with just one more blow!

Thus, I raised the Cursed and brandished it down with all my might–

“DON’T YOU DARE UNDERESTIMATE ME!!!!!!”

“—-?!”

–Right after that, an unbelievable sight entered my vision.

An arm flew up in the air, along with fresh blood that splattered from it. It was Cain’s right arm. In exchange, in the place where his right arm was just before, a red magic circle shined. Then the blood spear that emerged from there didn’t stop after severing Cain’s right arm off, and also started moving towards me.

Unbelievable. This bastard deliberately sacrificed his right arm, just to release an attack from my blind spot!

And unfortunately, it was super effective, as when I had finally noticed it, the blood-red spear was already right before my eyes, and I didn’t have enough time to transfer. The blood-red spear deflected Cursed and directly struck my body.

The sound of [Cladding Barrier] being destroyed could be heard. If I took another blow, my life would undoubtedly end.

— Even so!

“——–tss”

Even so, I took a step forward. Because there is no time to start again. I have to defeat this bastard right here, right now!

Therefore, without even a bit of hesitation, I tightly held the Nameless with my right hand and brandished it powerfully. But, I wasn’t the only one who bet everything in the next attack. Cain was also the same. The blood that spilled from his severed right arm gathered and turned into a single blade. Then, Cain and I swung our blade at an extreme speed at the same time.

“UWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!”

“ORAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!”

—- This is……

The moment the silver blade and the blood-red blade crossed each other, when I was in a state of extreme concentration, the world slowed. And there, I realized— or should I say, ended up realized. That Cain’s attack is slightly faster than mine. It was because my momentum was reduced due to the surprise attack he landed on me earlier.

There isn’t enough time to transfer. This means, Cain’s blade will definitely kill me.

–In that case! Even if I have to sacrifice myself, I will kill him!

With such determination, I tighten my grip over the sword. Then, I swung it using everything I had–

“—-Magic Sword”

However, at that moment, a voice echoed.

It was a very small yet powerful voice. Promptly afterward, a wind whip that came out of nowhere coiled around the blood-red blade.

“Wha?!”

Facing such an unexpected situation, Cain opened his eyes in shock. And then, I saw. The girl who released the wind whip.

—- Kurosaki Rei.

Ah, I see. So it was like that. I wasn’t the only one—who despite understanding how powerless we are but still stood. I wasn’t the only one… who tried to fight the despair.

The blade that she courageously swung may be insignificant for Cain. And it indeed couldn’t stop Cain’s attack. Nevertheless, the courage that she demonstrated in that one second– meant everything to me, giving me the time I needed more than anything else.

At that moment, my eyes met with Rei. She stared straight at me with blue eyes that displayed a strong will. Subsequently, she said.

“—–Go, Rin”

Ah, leave it to me.

Simultaneously, the time that seemed to stop, started to move.

“UWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!”

Along with the roar, I released the silver blade that surpassed even the speed of god. The moment that blade stopped— it deeply pierced Cain’s body.

“——-”

Looking at the blood, that already surpassed lethal amounts, spilling from his body–Cain opened his eyes in shock, thinking ‘How could I lose’, as if he couldn’t understand. Perhaps because he didn’t even have the power to maintain his magic, the blood-red blade scattered in the air.

“… Impossible. This me, lose? To some weak ants like you….”

“… We might be weak. But that is also why we have a strength that you don’t have. Then, we, who still stood before you— definitely wasn’t powerless”

“… I see. It is a concept that the strong like me could never understand. However, if that ignorance is the cause of my defeat… then it couldn’t be helped. I have no choice but to accept it.”

*Duk*

As strength gradually disappeared from his body, Cain put both knees on the ground. Then, with unfocused eyes, he uttered his last words.

“Before I die, tell me your name”

“… Amane Rin”

“I see. Let me give you a piece of advice, Rin. Don’t think peaceful days will come even if you defeat me. Because the real hell for you bastard is just about to begin…”

With those words as his last, Cain’s body becomes dust. Eventually, everything turned into dust and disappeared as it dispersed in the air.

After a delay, the sound of the system reverberates. It is proof that we have defeated Cain. In addition, it was also proof that we have overcome despair.

And then,

“—–Rin!”

While listening to the voice of the girls who call my name. I, who felt relieved that I was able to protect everyone, lost my consciousness–.
