Regress and Eat

Stardust Wing

Boom, boom!

You hear the sound of breaking the elongated wall from above. I could see what was happening.

Originally a combination of field-type and maze dungeon, it was completed and became an ordinary field-type dungeon.

Thus, the invariance that was forcibly imparted to some structures for maze retention was eliminated. Even the parts that could never be broken can now be destroyed.

‘The quickest way to do this is to just break through. ’

McKid and his men will be charging through the outer wall of the castle, punching through the tunnels horizontally from where they were last.

‘It's been more than half a day. No matter how dizzy the sympathy line is, if you look at the big picture, you'll realize that the direction of progress is down. ’

Knowing that, what choice do they have?

Once we're through the outer wall, we jump to the ground floor.

I have the [Stardust Wing] I just acquired. A glass bottle like an ampoule container filled with shimmering powder.

You can't take this away from me.

[Stardust Wings]

Item Description: When inserted into the body, it is bound and triggered by the user's will.

"Into the body"? But how?

Thinking about it, I felt a very complicated heart.

There are six possible ways of thinking about human body structure. I tried five of them, but I was not willing to do just one thing.

I put the bottle on my forearm to get the most plausible way into action.

Weeing!

A small needle protrudes out of the spiky mouth as if waiting. And like a holographic guide to use, a light arrow was illuminated on the tip of the needle and pointed to my arm vein.

Like I'm supposed to stick it in here.

"You were injecting the contents like an injection. ’

It was fortunate to be able to dispose of the other five items.

Insert the needle into the vein. The powder of light that was full of the bottle was absorbed into the bloodline in an instant.

At the same time, I felt a disparate energy rushing through my body. It quickly settled behind my back, exploring every corner of my body, leaving a hot trail.

At the end of the process, the empty glass bottle melted into the air without a trace.

Let's get out of here! ’

*

Boom, boom!

I'm a step closer to the ground floor, outside the castle, ahead of McKid's group. I could have run the path I already knew, but they broke every one of them.

Boom!

A hole in the Black Wall, which prevents any attack, is punctured and smoked until the attack.

The moment I saw that scene was when I had just come to the ground and unfolded the Stardust Wing.

Whew!

Wings made of blue light rose from my back.

The white light particles that appeared in the glass jar gathered together to form wings. Symmetrical on both sides, four wings in total.

However, how to use this object · · ·.

Boom!

“[Hidden!] ”

My body melted into the air with wings behind my back.

As soon as I hid my appearance, four golems jumped off the wall. Hanging a few expeditioners on each back. If you enchanted a Levitation order on the golem, the fall rate for the mass was slightly slower.

Meanwhile, as soon as the golem stepped off the wall, I hid and ran to the gate.

I look at my Mana.

- Active Mana: 26,000 (+14,500)/11,500

- Potential Mana: 85,000

Active Mana barrel 11,500 after two months of awakening.

If you don't screw up the promotion screening, you will receive a Class A Hunter certification. It's a common sense speed.

Due to the continued hunting of the core, available Mana is now more than 26,000 times over.

The minimum active Mana volume of an SS class Hunter is 30,000. It doesn't make a difference if I just name my available Mana right now. Unlike when we enter, we have a sword, so it's worth a one-on-one fight for one McKid. ’

The problem is there's not one person after me right now.

1: 14 Not only that, but there are one SS class and two S classes among them.

After all, running away is the best thing to do! ’

During [Stealth], if I use another skill like [Acceleration], it breaks, so I tried to use the item instead of the skill. He came out and there were no obstacles on the ceiling, so he tried to fly with [Stardust Wing].

It was triggered willingly, and I thought flying would be possible in the same way.

But it didn't go the way it wanted!

"Shit, how do I use this thing?" ’

If I'd ever seen anyone use one of these in my life, I could have imitated managing Mana like that!

You inject Mana into the item in a variety of ways, but it's as if you're waiting to catch a rat in the back of a cow.

While running away, he taps the [Stardust Wing] with Manaro several times per second, creating various patterns.

Bang!

Meanwhile, the golems land on the ground. I was already pretty far apart.

Hunters are about to enter the castle, but McKid has stopped them.

“Wait! He may have already left the castle. Emily?"

Emily seems to have developed some other assistive skills. I turned my gaze for a moment and read the pattern.

Mana Detection!] ’

I spit in my gut. Oh, shit.

‘Skill not found in official profile! ’

You can't observe the Mana pattern like [successor's eye], but it senses where it is aggregated. As primitive as a swarm of worms in Hersman's disguise.

There's no use in a maze full of Mana, but stories are different in this open field.

And · · ·. [Stealth] Despite your skills, Mana will be consumed!

Eighty degrees! 1.1 miles! ”

Emily recites my location.

Immediately after the horse falls, fourteen hunters kick the ground at the same time.

I surround myself like a fox and chase my place.

While running, McKid yells at the whale.

“Dell Parker! Do you really want to die?! This is a clear breach of contract! ”

I ran away and grumbled inside.

"He doesn't know I've extended his life! ’

If I hadn't intercepted the sword, I wouldn't be able to see a human like that who would have carved himself into pieces six months later and chased me.

And if I hadn't intercepted him, he would have taken the sword and killed so many people that it's hard to estimate.

"Oh, this isn't working! ’

I curse the system message inside. Instead of useless knowledge like other dimensions of history, we'll put manuals on it!

Hunters clap their wings with Mana without resting.

The user turns sharply and speeds up. But Emily's detection skills continue to follow.

“20 degrees azimuth! 0.5 miles! ”

With the streets narrowed, Hunters attack from behind you. Swords, spells, and arrows are swirling, but I'm keeping [Stealth] open. Aiming at me unseen, Emily misses every attack she can think of in the direction and distance.

It seemed like McKid realized he couldn't catch it this way either.

“I can't. Let's just blow it all up! ”

He's giving orders to the hunters.

“Everyone, fall back! ”

And the whimpering sound caught my enhanced hearing.

“Damn, this dungeon doesn't fit from the meadow to the finish. ”

I felt a moment of anxiety and looked back again.

A mountain of Mana boils from his core as he stops running. It immediately turned red and wrapped around him.

‘Unique Skill! ’

Supportive positions!

Sparks protrude around McKid's body. The floor was seared with colorless flames and repeated with small flashes of light blooming and crumbling like discharged wires.

While he stopped, I kept my distance, but my mind was not relaxed.

Rather, it became more urgent.

Phage!

It was definitely further away, but my skin was already tingling. My hair swelled up and spread like static electricity.

This means · · · · ·.

Hit range here, too! ’

I don't know the exact location, so I'm going to wipe it out with a wide assault.

“Emily!"

“35 degrees azimuth! Two miles! ”

McKid reaches out his hands to the front.

I gave up hiding and prepared to [accelerate].

Wiiiing!

At that moment.

The [Stardust Wing], which has been in trouble so far, has finally begun to react to my Mana.

Yes, yes! Now! "

I've leaned toward the artifact I've experienced in Mana.

These fucking wings! Fly! "

Immediately before I was surrounded by a feeling of affluence, I turned my head.

A well-refined red Mana explodes from McKid's entire body.

“[Rank: S]! ”

The moment he triggered the skill.

The wings of my back also started flying.

"Huh, huh? ’

Whee!

Suddenly, all the surrounding landscapes seemed to flare up, but they returned to their original state.

I ran and realized, driven by the inertia of consciousness.

My feet fill the air.

However, after that, my legs continued to groan in the air.

“ · · · · · ·! ”

The surrounding landscape had all changed.

I'm floating in the air. A dark forest spread beneath your feet. I can see the Black Castle that was running behind me just now.

· · Yes, I see ‘far away’. How far is it, 10 kilometers away from where I was just standing?

And, without further embarrassment.

Flash!

An intense white light blazes across the distant sky that seems to wipe out your eyes.

Violence towards hearing arrived a little later than that which disturbed the vision.

Boom, boom, boom!

Hundreds of lightning strikes the forest around the castle.

That's where I ran away from McKid.

Every time the lightning strikes, there is a few seconds of residual fantasy. All flashes were extremely destructive. The lightning that falls, tearing the air, burns a certain area of the forest to ashes.

I thought, when the crossing of the rays that were cutting through the sky finally stopped,

‘· · · You really blew up my whole neighborhood. Idiot.’

Traces of devastation show scattered spots of wildfire and thick smoke rises.

Now it seems impossible for McKid to keep up with me. The Pokémon flees beyond Emily's skill range. It would be too late to find a body in the ashes and be angry.

‘Well, I'll go back to Earth first. Goodbye.'

Turn your back without foolishness. There was an invisible gate on the other side of the castle.

Adjust the angle of the body in the air. Keep your trajectory straight · · · Again!

The moment I delivered my will to the wings of my back.

My body slides again like an arrow that is not resistant to air. I flew at a rate that was out of my perception. You quickly narrow the distance between the gates of Earth and through the gates.

*

‘Hey · · · I guess I was wrong. ’

“ · · · · · ·. ”

‘It seems that you are not the master of Muzak, but the master of Luck. I'm guessing right? With all due respect, ’

“ · · · · · ·. ”

I've been thinking about ignoring the voice of the dead man who started mumbling again.

The downtown Chicago landscape slowly passed beneath me, spreading blue wings while keeping me hidden.

It flies along a canal that runs through a building forest. A much more relaxing speed compared to the speed at which I didn't even notice my body was moving in the dungeon just now.

I mutter to myself.

‘Flying at the same speed as before will consume Mana too much. ’

I was good enough to return directly to Earth through the gate.

There's no reason for them to stay there and fight the McKids, but even if they did, Mana would be ridiculously short. I can't absorb the core freely in combat.

‘On the other hand, if I fly at the right speed like now, I can tolerate it well. ’

I was getting a sense of how to use these wings.

The most surprising part is that there was no resistance in the body, not now, not even when flying at ridiculous speeds in the dungeon, and no physical inertia when stopping flying.

Everything happened so fast that it was hard to notice that it just slipped and flew and stopped.

· · · Maybe the system wasn't an unnecessary explanation. ’

It seemed possible to penetrate the stratosphere and fly between planets.

Of course, that would cost a lot of Mana.

Would it be possible if I had an increase of about 300,000 mannequins? ’

It wasn't impossible, but it wasn't coming right away.

Through my thoughtfulness, the horse's telepathy dug in. The snakes couldn't swallow it. Thanks to this, I have to carry the sword on my back, and the telepathy continues unceasingly. It was the same with my body.

‘By the way, how did you get such a good item from that dungeon? How was that possible in the boss war? I was amazed. I had no idea that I had been stuck there for so long, but that monster dug a trap pretending to be me. But your response was overwhelming. He didn't respond to the conversation as if he knew beforehand and threw the bomb first · ·. ’

Looks like he changed his plan. Since I'm not going to be persuaded unilaterally, for the time being, praise me and keep me going.

‘They don't know that I've noticed who they are, but they'll use the method that they used to use on Randy one day. ’

Putting curses and swearing in your hands along with your psychic skills.

The brainwashing didn't work on me, but I didn't intend to endure such embarrassment the whole time I was close to the sword.

Even if I hand this sword over to Randy one day, I don't intend to make him suffer the same.

‘The man with the sword closes his ears, not just his strength. ’

Instead of trying to find a way to stop the Telepathy, I decided to surrender the blade completely.

End
