Chapter 5 - Honeymoon ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ (Part 5)
「Haha! Hahaha! You were saying big words, but you aren’t that much huh? I still have no damage, but Jou-chan’s pretty much splattered……haha! Hahaha! My skill was the one overwhelming after all!」
Harada laughed while he had hands to his stomachーーbut, he was not laughing deep within his eyes.
There are two reasons for that.
The Golden Dragon Charlings would not stop smiling no matter how long has passed.
And Balfnaught herself, she would not lose her cool smile even after receiving damage this heavy.
Howeverーーthe situation is clearly on Harada’s advantage.
He had a bad feeling within his heart but that is that.
The two Dragon Emperors would find out the bottom of his heart if he shows a panicking expression here.
And also, no matter what situation it changes to, there’s no change that attacks would not reach him no matter what.
ButーーHarada was forced to think twice in the next instant.
About how much of a frog in a well he is.
「Skill【Automatic Complete Recovery】」
Balfnaught whispered that with difficulty.
Balfnaught’s wounds healed one next to the other as if a video was played backwards.
Within just a second, her blood, the sticky fluids, even all of her bones returned to normal.
Harada was in a daze for a while.
「……haa?」
Stupefied……Harada continued his words with that expression.
「Automatic Complete Recovery……? What the, fuck……t-t-that’s……ridiculous……」
On the other hand, Balfnaught shook her head with an amazed face.
「【Physical Attack Reflection】……I don’t want to get told by a person who has such skill」
Harada regains himself some composure while thinking the meaning of those words.
ーーwith this, it just became even at worst.
The opponent’s attack would not reach him at all, the opponent is just hard to die, but that does not mean that she won’t die.
「However, this is really amazing huh〜……by the way, Ojou-chan?」
「What?」
「How are you planning to break through my reflect?」
「What or how?……that’s decided from the start」
「……?」
Balfnaught raised her fist with a giggle.
「ーーI’ll crush you to death」
And it was Balfnaught’s right straight that was thrown.
Honestly speaking, it is on the level that Harada’s face would burst and scatter if it cleanly hits.
And Harada also understands that very well. There was no doubt that there’s a difference between heaven and earth in both their basic status and skill at physics calculation intervention.
However, that is different when it comes to skills.
The rare【Physical Attack Reflection】skill within the Extreme Skills.
It is not absolutely invincible, but……even so, it is near invincible.
The only exception is at the deepest floors of the labyrinth, but even there……there are not many monsters that could easily break through that ability.
「Crush me to death? What stupid things are you saying」
Andーーthe girl started a rush.
「……eh?! ehh?! eehh?!」
Right straight. Left upper.
Standing lock. Left hook. Right low. Left middle. Solar plexus blow.
「Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!!」
Balfnaught continued furthermore to Harada who had a panicked expression.
Right. Right. Left Right. Right.
「Oi, human?」
「……what?」
「Do you know the reflect’s weakness?」
Right. Right. Left. Left Right. Right.
「Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!!」
「Within the physical laws intervention……reflect is convenient. It is something that is added to the skill system……so that even small fries can use it. Well, that is why……it has some high effects for beginners to use」
Rush. Rush.
Raging rush.
Consecutive blows. Consecutive blows.
Raging consecutive blows.
Right. Right. Left. Left Right. Right.
Left. Left. Right. Right Left. Left.
「Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!!」
「Skill【Automatic Complete Recovery】」
The damage from reflect recovered in an instant.
Balfnaught continued her consecutive attacks towards Harada while even smiling.
「Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!!」
The time that had passed was about a second.
Dozens of consecutive blows were thrown to Harada, but there was no effect after all.
「However, Ojou-chan? How about you stop pretending endurance?」
「Pretend endurance?」
「……it’s the pain」
「Pain?」
「You don’t need to act? It doesn’t matter even if you can recover, absurd amount of pain should be attacking you all the time」
「……」
「That’s why, that damage will stockpile. Even if it doesn’t remain to your body……it will in your heart right? It’s not like you can continue that reckless attacks forever right? Your heart would give up first」
And there, Balfnaught’s attacks stopped.
「Haha, it looks like I’m right」
*Pon*, Balfnaught places a fist on her hand and casually said.
「Ahh, I forgot to tell you. Cut off pain is a needed skill in battles at our level. It means that there is no way that my heart will get broken. Impossible」
「Eh?! Ah……hya?! Ahya?!!」
Harada showed a clear panicking expression for the first time.
「What happened? Well, if you continue receiving consecutive blows like thisーーit’s bad for you right? I get you」
Rush. Rush.
Raging Rush.
「Haha! Hahaha! Crush me to death? Don’t make me laugh? It just repeats from earlier you know?」
Balfnaught raised her fist again.
Rush. Rush.
Raging Rush.

「Hii! Hiii, Hiiii! Ha! Ha!……Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!! Reflect!!」
Clear panic and fear.
Balfnaught received reflects until she was in tatters, however, the smile on her face would not disappear.
On the other hand, Harada’s face was pale and pouring with cold sweat.
「Hey, is itーーgetting hard yet?」
Harada made a frightened expression to Balfnaught’s words that seemed to see through him.
「……well, who knows?」
「It’s alright to push you like this butーーit’s boring like that」
「That’s why」, Balfnaught opened her mouth and smiled.
「I’ll stop the consecutive blows」
「……what do you mean by this?」
「It’s boring to end it like this. Someone who doesn’t know his place appeared after a long time……on top of that, if he’s half-bakedly strong, it is normal to want to play with toys」
「You treat me like a toy huh……honestly, aren’t you looking down at me too much? If we were to state just the facts, Ojou-chan didn’t break through the Reflect Skill even once though?」
“Haha”, Balfnaught laughed.
Following that, the Golden Dragon Charlings also scoffed at him.
「Haha!……I see. Coming up to thisーーyou’re still saying that? Well, whatever. It’s true that up until now, I did not break through the Reflect Skill even once. Well, up until now……that is」
「……」
A very composed Balfnaught.
A silent Harada.
「Well then, I will change the preference. And I will decide the match with this wayーーSkill【Mistilteinn】. My next attack’s damage will be doubled」
And after that, Balfnaught raised her fistーーand swung it towards Harada.
Balfnaught greatly bent backward.
Her nose blood gushed out tremendously.
「Haha!! Haha!! Hahaha!! Are you alright, hm? Hey, hey, are you alright, hm? You lost blood like a fountain though?」
Harada laughed but still, he was not laughing deep within his eyes.
Not only that, his face became paler and cold sweat rapidly fell from his back.
Harada had already understood.
With the consecutive blows earlierーーhe found out that the difference between their strength was not a joke.
His head continuously searched for a way to run away, but even if he was able to escape from Balfnaught, it is impossible to pass through Charlings.
Charlings had observed the fight with the role of stopping Harada if he was to run away since the battle had started. Even if Harada were able to pass through Charlings, the two of them would probably combine immediately and chase after him.
With only one of them, they cannot use the powers of the Dragon Emperor.
And, it’s at this unbelievable level just with one of them.
ーーwhy, why did these guys withdraw from the labyrinth? Even if they reached the stage of a Buddha and does not touch the deepest parts at all……they aimed at the deepest floors in the past right? Don’t tell me……they could not……pass? Deeper within the deepest parts……even they……couldn’t pass? What, what is in there……? What in the world……is in the deepest part……?
Balfnaught once again opened her mouth expressionlessly.
「Skill【True・Mistilteinn】. My next attack will be multiplied five times」
And after that, Balfnaught raised her fistーーand swung it towards Harada.
Balfnaught got blown backwards with the reflect.
When half of her face got broken, she opened her mouth.
「Skill【Automatic Complete Recovery】」
She slowly walked and stood in front of Harada once again.
「Skill【True・Mistilteinn Burst】. My next attack will be multiplied ten times」
At the same time Balfnaught hits him, she was blown away backwards.
「Skill【Automatic Complete Recovery】」
Destruction and restoration.
Even if her brains scattered, that brain returns to normal.
After a few instants, her face returned to its original beauty.
Balfnaught who slid on the ground and stood up grinned.
「Ahh, we were talking about reflect’s weakness huh……well, it’s the same with the consecutive blows earlier, but……it has lots of weaknesses right? Well then, shall we start the sure thing……that will make your heart suffer?」
「Sure thing?」
「Skill【True・Mistilteinn Extreme Burst】. My next attack will be multiplied twenty times」
Balfnaught was blown away once again.
She used her auto recovery and returned to normal.
「Skill【True・10x Mistilteinn】. My next attack will be multiplied fifty times」
She raised her fist.
Balfnaught was blown away.
She recovered and returned to normal.
「This is the last one」
She raised her fist.
「Skill【True・100x Mistilteinn】. My next attack will be multiplied five hundred times」
And thereーー”Hyaun!”, Harada raised a pathetic voice.
「Wait, wait, wait, wait! Your punch that was already ridiculous with physics laws intervention, another 500x multiplier? Don’t fuck around? That’s, that’s that’s, that’s not good!!」
And there, Balfnaught made a wry smile and said.
「Well then. Here is a problem」
「……problem?」
「The mass and speed that you reflect. In short, the kinetic energy. What happens if that exceeds the limit of the tolerable amount of your skill? Tell me your answer if you go home okay……it’s shabby with just 100x right? Let me see, to test it……I’ll go serious」
She gripped her first and declared once again.
「ーーSkill【True・500x Mistilteinn】. My next attack will be multiplied one thousand and five hundred times」
「ーーーーーーhii!!」
*Puchun*
With one attack, Harada became a dark red mistーーhe was crushed to a micro size, and scattered in the air.
「The correct answer……you experienced it first hand. By the way, I played with you up until now but……with a thought, I could think of at least four or five ways to kill you instantly within a second」
After sighing lightly, Balfnaught flips her red hair using her right hand.
「Just a lowly human child……do not look down on dragons」
Charlings who have observed from start to finish opened her mouth apologetically.
「Balfnaught……」
「What is it? Charlings?」
「The main body, it looks like it escaped」
Balfnaught became silent for a while and tilted her head being unable to believe it.
「I can understand if……he tricked my eyes during battle. But tricking your observer eyes that meant to stop him from running away from the start……it is impossible. What does this mean?」
「That is right, as you have said, the main body ran with an impossible way」
「That is why I am saying, why did that happen?」
Charlotte merrily answered.
「”That” is a parasitic thing. And when it’s about to die……it would teleport」
Balfnaught clicked her tongue after hearing that.
「……an underhanded trick. We do not assume that escape skill at our level」
「Kufufu. It looks like even you have mistakes?」
「It is impossible to understand the mind of a guy who does not even have pride as a warrior」
「Kufufu. Kufufufu. Well, leaving that aside, that guy……after losing his body……he should seek a new material?」
「……inevitably, yes」
「And, right at the moment, the material that has the most power around here is……?」
Balfnaught nodded after thinking for a moment.
「I see. That boy huh. We shall not interfere with the law of the human world」
「That is why, we leave humans to humans. Well, this time, there is something personal thoughーー」
「With that guy’s current condition……」
「If that boy wrings out his wisdom, and pass through two best answers that are called absurdity……he might be able to hunt him」
「……you’re kind huh, Charlings」
「What do you mean?」
「Most probably……you intentionally let that parasitic creature run away right? Even if that boy were able to get an advanced job, he would not be able to live in the middle floors when he returns to the labyrinth. That is why, you gave him a big chance to take his skill and experience points……」
“Haha”, Charlings replied while laughing.
「Haha, that is a strange thing you say? It is two best answers you know? From how I look at it, the probability to pass through that……it is below one percent」
Balfnaught nodded after receiving those words.
「But, even that below one percent……if it is with『Passive Skill』……I wonder. He should have passed through the possibilities of below one percent many times up until now……that is why I described you as kind」
