The world's strongest hard worker

Episode 42 Before The Gono Sword

Here they were wrapped in light.

Is this Manticore's ability?

When you're ready,

"Livel, I got this!

I felt the wind from behind.

Anna's voice.

And a dragon passing by beside me with refreshment.

The total length was about 2 meters, but I felt it was somehow similar to cucumber.

No way...

Is that cucumber?

Aruji! Help me now!

When I thought so, I heard Cu's voice in a hearsay.

Cuu, is that you?

It doesn't matter why Cu's body is getting bigger at this time.

I can't afford to be surprised.

Now is the time to defeat Manticore.

Yeah! I'll take him down!

The power of the grown cube is unknown, but the magic surrounding it is greater than the manticore.

It is unlikely that Anna will be able to crush Manticore even if she rides Cu and demonstrates her talents as a Dragon Knight.

It's hard to take down. Can you buy me as much time as you can right now?

Okay!

Don't push me.

Thanks to Anna and Cu, Manticore's target is no longer mine.

If you miss this opportunity, you will never win again.

How much time can Cu and Anna spend on Manticore?

And how long will my body last?

Time limit is near.

But all I know is that if we fail, we all die.

I won't let you die.

Make sure you defeat Manticore.

Gu ─ ─

The poison is gradually eroding the body.

Fluffy.

The feeling that your body is not yours.

It's painful.

I feel nauseous.

... you've tasted it to the point where you hate it.

Take a big, deep breath.

Close your eyes and focus on the magic flowing through your body.

Anna and Cu made it for me this time.

We can't let it go to waste.

A method of controlling magic flashed by manticore poison.

Apply it carefully and quickly.

─ ─ Yes.

The current magic flow is uniform.

All you have to do is use this state to stiffen your body at the moment of the sword shooting.

If you fire a sword in this state, you will definitely be able to acquire the Gono Sword.

... but I felt two discomforts.

One, can you defeat Manticore with the Gono Sword? That means...

If you get something you can't get, you're more likely to defeat Manticore.

There is no doubt that it is as powerful as a special blow, but I have come up with a way to improve the Gono Sword.

That was another discomfort.

Magic flows like waves at maximum and minimum time and again.

Make the magic uniform so that it reaches the average value.

Because it uses all the magic flow, there's no doubt that Lloyd said it was a full blow.

However, instead of maintaining this at an average value, if we maintain the magic at its maximum position, we may be able to launch a blow that exceeds our full power.

You can't do that.

Some people thought so, but if you apply ancient magic ─ ─ it's likely to be realized.

Unlike modern magic, ancient magic has a high degree of freedom and difficulty.

Without knowledge, we can't even use ancient magic.

Make the magic uniform from the average to the maximum.

To achieve this, use ancient magic on yourself to amplify the magic in a uniform state.

It is quite difficult to use ancient magic while keeping control of magic uniform.

If you relax for a moment, the improvement will not succeed.

"Geho"

Because of the poison, I vomited blood.

Potatoes and blood flow.

... don't be upset about this.

Stay focused.

Believe in yourself and imagine success.

─ ─ Alright, I succeeded in making the magic uniform at its maximum value.

Anna and Cu seemed to be fighting Manticore persistently.

I was relieved for a moment that I was safe, and I rushed out forcefully.

Now's your chance to assume I'm dying, get off the target, and not focus.

But when I approached Manticore, I turned the target on me.

It's too late.

I realize that this state has higher physical abilities than when I maximize the output of Physical Enhancement.

That should be it.

Because the magic I am wrapping around is beyond my limits.

Manticore moved his tail poison needle at a fierce speed and tried to stab me with his eyes.

When I jumped and dodged, the tail flipped rapidly towards me in the air.

Manticore is seriously trying to kill me, just to tell you that the game is over.

I can't move freely in the air.

That's why I turn around and avoid poison needles.

Hold the sword in the air and aim at Manticore's neck.

If you take it off, it's death that's waiting.

It doesn't have to be decided with a single shot.

But there is no anxiety.

Because I knew that I was more powerful than Manticore at the moment I crossed my limits.

It's over.

When I landed on the manticore, I fired a special blow.

We created original skills

I heard that message and cut Manticore's neck.

The manticore, whose head and body were separated, slowly fell to the ground.
