A Chronicle of Life in a Different World

The heat of blood sprayed out from the right neck and the pain I feel even when I use "calorie release".

Realizing that, Reurus's body slowly collapsed toward the ground - rejecting it by poking its knees.

The Neck Hunter's actions were extremely simple, and he struck a resurrection blow against a Reurus that tried to defeat him with a feint.

Use the speed you have in front of you to counter the reels that will alert you to the rupture of space.

In words, that alone caught my attention to the time limit of magic exhaustion.

As a result, he was cut off by his nails and bled to the point where he couldn't stop.

I avoided being brutally distracted and strangled, but that was no consolation. Blood erupts like a broken faucet or amputated artery, reddishing the rear view with pain.

(Is this... a fatal wound...)

In a red-dyed vision, Reurus muttered in his heart with surprise and calm.

The "Neck Hunter" is watching the counterattack, or is he watching Reurus from a distance? Until then, Reurus would not be willing to be alarmed because he was advancing the fight.

Reurus thought the calmness was grudging.

"Reurus!?

I can hear Ruvillia from afar, but I can't afford to answer that. First, I try to hold the wound with my left hand to reduce the amount of bleeding, but how effective is it?

He did not die instantly because he was not strangled, but if the bleeding continues, he will naturally die. The contract with Eliza left a few wounds, but it wasn't strong enough to heal a fatal wound.

I have been dying many times before, but the footsteps of death are clearly approaching. If you don't move like this, you'll be dead in a few minutes.

(If you burn the wound with Sarah's help... Neddy will freeze the wound... and ask Grandpa to cut it...)

I have some countermeasures in mind. Blocking the wound right now could help.

Kiki kiki!

"Neck hunting" is not too sweet to forgive. While judging the wound on Reurus to be fatal, he is still attacking and trying to take care of it with his own hands.

If the enemy is alive, if he can move, he will definitely hold his breath. I bet you're right about "neck hunting." Reurus must have done the opposite.

Blood spills from the wound held down by your left hand as your heart beats your pulse. As the blood drains out, it also feels like the strength of your heart's pulse is weakening.

Reurus looked at "neck hunting" as he stepped into his neck, feeling his blood flowing out of his body.

Because death is imminent, the movement seems to be slow. It is clear that the shaken right arm and the nails extending beyond reflect the sunlight. On the contrary, the hairstyle of "neck hunting" seemed to be visible even one by one.

(Does this guy's hair return blood and turn black... the root is white)

While thinking about the fur color of "neck hunting" that I noticed now, Reurus's body was moving on its own.

"Neck hunting" is stepping in, shaking "dragon slashing" with just the right hand. Slowly, place the blade to block the slow-moving "neck hunting" route.

Huh!?

I thought it was impossible to move, but the "neck hunt" immediately jumped to the side. The reaction, even the movement, appears to be slow motion, and Reurus' eyes continue to follow the "neck hunting" movement.

The brightly red vision is behind the belly, and the thought is pure white. Your body moves apart from thinking while you calmly grasp your condition.

(... oh, yeah.)

I came up with a good idea. When you think about it, your body moves, and your body moves in a natural way.

Even if I hold down the wound, I will bleed that much if I move. Considering the amount of bleeding, I think it will take a minute or two to move. I felt strange even if I could move, but Reurus thought it was “now”.

Move for a minute or two. Even if you estimate a lot, you'll be dead in three minutes. If you keep using "Calorie Release", you may have five minutes.

--Then I'll kill the "neck hunter" before I die.

That way, you won't get in the way of healing the wound. I can see the eyes that survive.

Kiki!?

When it is warm, the revus moves to slip on the ground. Step into 'Neck Hunting' with the minimum amount of movement necessary to prevent more blood from spilling out.

"Neck Hunting" shocked me, but I can't afford it. Reurus did not make a single voice, silently swinging the "Dragon Slash" sideways.

I shake it with only my right arm, so it has no power or speed compared to before. But faster than ever, it was a flash of nothing.

Giiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!?

The Neck Hunter tried to avoid slashing, but it was slightly slower. A long ear extending to the head like a rabbit is cut even on the left side.

――――

While watching the screaming "neck hunting" without emotion, Reurus waves down the "dragon slash". I couldn't afford to think about it, because there was a "neck hunting" head there - that's why I shake the blade.

The effect of slashing the left ear, or "neck hunting" slightly unbalanced and jumped back.

If you can open your distance and run around, you won't win. When I thought about it, Reurus's body was moving.

The "Dragon Slash" that was swinging down was forced to stop by force and stepped in to follow the "Neck Hunt". That's how you throw it at your torso. The effect of forcibly stopping the "Dragon Slash" caused a massive bleeding from the wound, but I don't have time to care.

"Neck Hunting" shakes his nails while twisting his body, and plays "Dragon Slash" directly below. Then he rolled to the right with the momentum he played and tried to take a distance from the rear end.

――――

Step by step, signs of death are approaching. As you do so, your senses become more acute.

A pulsating heart, bleeding from the wound, and the feeling of the right arm shaking 'Dragon Slash'. The sunlight and breeze pouring on the skin, the rushed breath of "neck hunting".

Turning to my consciousness, I was able to feel the signs of Ruvillia and Anemone, who were supposed to be far away. I can see that Ruvillia and Anemone both have impatient emotions, even though they are not looking at the expression.

Flying further away, Reurus realized that there were two “connections” in him.

It's not visible. Normally, if you are conscious, you can feel a little bit of the connection through the "contract" you had with Eliza and Sarah. I can feel it so clearly now that I can imagine whether it is connected with a string.

I can understand the other party who entered into the "contract" in vain. If you have anger or sadness, you can feel it somewhat. If it was connected by magic, it might have been natural.

"---o"

As such thoughts rushed through at high speed, the movement of "neck hunting", which was trying to distance itself, came into view.

"Ooooooooooooo!

I roar even if the blood blows out. It was a threat to "neck hunting", an outburst of lethality, and a roar to deny the approaching death.

I further squeezed the magic I had turned to "Caloric Release." If you don't use up all your magic before you die, you'll throw up with a roar.

Reurus kicks the ground, displaying a temper unlikely to be one step ahead of the dead. With that alone, the ground is decimated and the grass that was growing at my feet is scattered.

The "neck hunter" who saw such a revulsion decided that he couldn't escape, so he stopped moving. And look at Reurus and hold your nails.

The “discomfort" is concentrated on the front of "neck hunting". Reurus, who felt it more clearly than before, pre-fetched the location of the rupture in the space created by the "neck hunt".

But it's not a big advantage just because it's pre-fetched. If you push into it, you will die as it is, and as usual, you will not be slaughtered with the Dragon Slash.

We have no choice but to induce the 'Neck Hunting' movement with the Feint, but we have no time left.

If I could set a feint using lethal air in this phase, I would be able to get a "neck hunt", but even with the current state of sharpness, I couldn't seem to be able to manipulate lethal air.

--But what about the magic coming out of your body?

Use "Caloric Release" to hold a little of the magic released outside your body. I felt that if I could do that, something would change.

It's not a killer, it's not a magical feint.

“There's something we can do now," says Reurus. Now that you are standing in the abyss of death, there are things you can accomplish.

While avoiding the rupture of the space created by the Neck Hunt with minimal movement, Reus waves the Dragon Slash. I can't afford to feint, I don't have time.

Though not punished, the body that waved the great sword toward the "neck hunt" was behind it, and the thought was directed toward the magic inside the body.

Something similar to the magic of "Enhancement" named "Caloric Release" by Reurus. My instinct tells me to change the way I use it.

It is not a killing spirit, but a magical treatment that is still released on the surface. If so, it doesn't matter yet. You can concentrate if you don't want to, in extreme circumstances where death is imminent.

It's just a little bit of the magic that you're releasing in bulk, so you can just "hold it inside”. I can handle magic even though it's awkward.

Still, reason whispered that it should be stopped - and instinct shouted, "What do you know?"

――――

At the same time as the feeling of pulling something out, your body pulsates strongly. In response to an unexpected reaction from his body, Reurus stopped on the spot as if he had forgotten to attack the "neck hunt".

Cacacaca!?

Seeing Reurus stop moving, The Neck Hunt moves instantly. Instead of attacking Reurus, we somehow distance ourselves too much.

"Ki, Ki... Kiki..."

The "Neck Hunter" stood up with his arms on the ground, thinking he had fallen down. And then you bite and snap your teeth, but is it because of intimidation - or because you're “scared”?

Reurus is surprised to hear such a "neck hunting" reaction. I tried to manipulate the magic that turned to "caloric liberation" with instinct and intuition, but there was no major change.

Yes, I thought so.

"... that?

When I noticed it, I no longer had the feeling of blood spilling from the wound that had always been passed on to my left hand. Even after using "Calorie Release", there was no pain felt, and Reurus raised his eyebrows.

When I touched it with my fingers, the wound remained on my neck. The bleeding has stopped even though it is said that.

(Did you suddenly stop bleeding? It hasn't healed, has it...?)

I took my left hand off the wound, but there was no sign of bleeding. Reurus wondered what was happening to his body while suppressing as much magic as possible overflowing the body by "caloric release."

"Ki... cacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacaca

But I don't have time to think long.

"Neck hunting" roars and jumps like you've regained your mind or aroused yourself.

When Reus saw it, he grabbed the "Dragon Slasher" pattern with both hands and immediately intercepted it.

― ― And you will feel the “change” that happened to you.
