Capítulo 180: Chapter 170 Had enough
A few seconds pass.
Within the first second, this Bryce fellow already regrew his arm. Not surprising really. Still, he grabs his arm at the point it was severed, the phantom pains still racking his mind.
Would I be like that if I didn't have [Cancel Pain]? Maybe. Hakurou would beat that weakness out of me immediately though.
He stops screaming as his white eyes glare at me.
Bryce- "Y-you… what did you do!?"
The lightning covering his body grows more erratic due to his emotions. I don't say anything and just point Yamato at him again, my expression unreadable, obscured by Shizue's mask.
Bryce- "Tch. It was probably a skill. No matter, my [Deprive] will take it from you soon enough."
Does he still believe he has a chance of winning? Isn't it obvious I'm not serious? Then and again, he might not be serious too. As for that [Deprive]…
Illya- 'It's a skill that can take skills and attributes of a target. The larger the strength gap, the more time is needed.'
… Doesn't that mean this guy will die of old age before he can take anything from me?
No, can he even take anything from me in the first place? I'm an Ultimate Skill holder.
Rimuru- 'In fact, how can [Investigator] even predict my movements if that's the case? It's just a Unique Skill.'
(A/N: A reminder that only an Ultimate Skill holder can affect other Ultimate Skill holders.)
Illya- 'I'm sensing a small fragment of an Ultimate Skill from [Investigator]. Perhaps Veldanava granted that skill directly to Veldora?'
Rimuru- 'An Ultimate Skill that can connect with the records of the world itself? I can only think of one that can do that…'
Illya- 'Yup. Origin Skill [Akashic Records, King of Information].'
Crazy. And this guy has a skill like that? A Unique Skill that can affect an Ultimate Skill holder?
*Sigh*
Doesn't matter. Focus.
All this happened under my sped up perception, so barely any time passed in reality. In the end, it's still a Unique Skill so I doubt it could find every little detail about me, like the skills I have in my arsenal.
Thinking it's better to be safe than sorry, I write a rune on my hand that hides information about myself.
Bryce flinches, most likely realising he can't get any more information about it from his skill.
Thrusting his hand forward, a thick bolt of black lightning launches out of his hand straight to me.
Swinging Yamato casually, I cut it in half as it fizzles out of existence.
Not minding it a single bit, he continues shooting one lightning strike after the other at me, to which I destroy with Yamato.
He starts using both hands, speeding up. Eventually, he realises that he doesn't need to "throw" anything at me, he can just shoot out a continuous stream of lightning at me from his fingertips like fucking Palpatine AKA Darth Sideous.
Bryce- "Unlimited poweeeerr!"
Ah, he said the thing.
I just stand my ground, hoving in the air with Yamato's blade crossed in front of me, blocking both streams. Casually.
He's aiming both lightning streams at my chest, it's not hard.
And then he realised that he can shoot lightning from different sources too, like the clouds in the sky-
No never mind, he didn't think of that yet. Instead, he kicks his foot before a stream of lightning shoots out from his foot at me. He does the same with his other foot too.
All of them are aimed at my chest, so Yamato easily blocks them all.
Bryce- "Ahaha! It's only a matter of time until that sword breaks! Unless you give it to me, then I won't break it!"
Obviously, you won't break it if I give it to you. Fucking idiot.
But… I don't see any sort of damage on Yamato though. A deep scan with [Universal Sense] isn't picking anything up either.
Rimuru- 'Illya?'
Illya- 'No, nothing. If anything, it's absorbing the lightning and growing stronger.'
Huh… I knew making it out of a meat bun was a good choice.
I ended up holding Yamato in place as the fool continuously fed more and more lightning to it. I got bored and also started feeding more magicules into it to get it to grow while I was at it.
I wonder why I never thought of doing this before… weird.
Thirty minutes later…
Bryce- "Ahaha! Soon! Very soon!"
Another ten minutes later…
Bryce- "VEEEEEERY soon!"
Another five minutes later…
Bryce- "…"
Another minu-
Bryce- "This is bullshit! Unfair! So not fair! I need a weapon like that too! Why is it not breaking!?"
Bryce shouts at the "unfairness" of it all. In the end, he concluded that… there's not enough lighting.
So he thrusts his hips out and a stream of lightning heads in my direction, straight from his pelvis-
Ok no, fuck this.
I move to the side, causing all the lightning to miss.
Bryce- "Ahaha! I knew it! It's on the verge of breaking!"
If he used his eyes, you can CLEARLY see that there's not a nick in the blade.
He shoots lightning from all five places again (two hands, two legs, and his peen) to which I dodge as if my life depends on it.
This occurs several more times. Finally having enough, he calls for lightning from the clouds.
Hundreds of bolts of black lightning fall from the darkened clouds that cover the sky.
Finally getting bored of this whole thing, I don't move anymore, nor do I raise Yamato.
Bryce- "Finally giving up! Ahaha!"
*Crack-BANG!*
The hail of lightning hits me head-on… But nothing happened!
It didn't miss, nor did it phase through me. It hit me properly, and Bryce knew that…
Which is why he couldn't understand why I'm still standing. If anything, there's a bit of smoke rising from the heat of the impact, but there's no other damage.
Bryce- "Wh-wh-wh-wh-"
Rimuru- "Why? Simple. I've had enough."
My monotone voice sends chills running down Bryce's spine.
Rimuru- "I've let you play around for a while. True, your lightning has a devastating power to it, even if it looks weak. I can see why my people had trouble. But…"
I resheathe Yamato again (A/N: Don't ask where he kept the sheath, even I don't know) and hold it to my waist, my left hand gripping its sheath and my right loosely hovering over its handle.
Rimuru- "I think you need to realise how far the difference in power between the two of us are."
And for the first time…
I channel magicules into Yamato.
