Capítulo 21: Sadist World
Licht and the Sentinel both started to fall into the dark trench.
With no of saving themselves, they kept falling without a way out.
'Get a grip, you bastard!' Licht screamed in his mind.
Every little muscle in his body was hurt. Every second small bout of pain washed over his body.
Licht did say he was ready to die to kill that abomination, but this was not a good time to rest.
"Ugh," groaning quietly in pain, Licht extended his hand outward as a small pike formed.
Even his spiritual energy reserves were lower than ever.
This was one of the last spikes he could make.
Licht's clothes fluttered in the winds as his body kept falling through darkness.
His body kept rotating, tumbling in the air in a flurry.
He couldn't even figure out where the slope was.
But Sentinel's massive body that kept crashing into it helped Licht locate it.
BOOM
All of a sudden, a massive sound came from far below him. The Sentinel's body had touched the ground first.
'I am doomed if I don't get to the escarpment fast!'
In an instant, he turned and positioned his body better, making him fly toward the cliff.
The rough rocks slightly grazed his hand, and instantly, apparent friction burns formed on it.
Taking the pike in his other hand, Licht smashed it into the rock, hoping it would slow down his downfall.
But something unexpected happened as the sharp end of the pike touched the Escarpment.
It went all in!
The rock Licht had pushed into was softer than he had thought.
Which in turn halted his fall. In the way, he didn't want it to.
'AGHH'
A bone-popping sound came as Licht's body crashed into the wall. Leaving him half-conscious.
Licht's arm had dislocated because of the high force acting on it.
While his other broke due to the sudden crash.
What he had wanted to do was to cushion and slow his descent with time but now…
He was stuck with one dislocated and one broken arm.
'What..a…joke..'
'Can't even..think straight…'
This went on for a few moments just when another bout of extreme pain went through his mind, waking him up from his reverie.
'AGHH'
'My grip is slipping away!'
Racking his brain for a moment, Licht used his power to coat his hand.
Liquid bone started to come out of his hand, wrapping around it and the pike.
He had made a lock to hold his hand from slipping away, but even that simple thing was hard for him to do.
Partially because of the pain. It ate away at his concentration with his decreasing spiritual energy reserves.
Looking down, Licht couldn't even know how much distance he was above the ground. The darkness made it hard to even look a meter in front of him.
If he hadn't heard the noises of Sentinel crashing down from time to time, then he wouldn't have survived till now.
But his situation right now was far worse. He was hanging on his dislocated arm yet there was still hope.
If Licht could heal the broken bone on his second arm, then he could at least correct the dislocated arm in some way.
Devising the plan for some more moments, Licht waited for some of his spiritual energy to replenish.
This was most probably his last fight till he got to the world above, and he just wanted to get back up again.
Hours went by as he could feel his already beaten-up arms turn blue from all the swelling, even moving his toes was hard from all the pain.
But he had recovered some spiritual energy, and now he was gonna go into the uncharted territory of his power.
Focusing on his hand, Licht tried to find the place of fracture.
This thing alone took more than twenty minutes as he couldn't even touch it to find the place that hurt more.
Like a monkey, he touched it with his toes till he found the place that pained the most.
Focusing his power on that area, Licht started to put small amounts of spiritual energy there, but only if it was that easy.
The process went horribly wrong at the start one-two small spike manifested on his skin which automatically fell off it.
But the deeper he focused, the more he fucked it up. Spikes sprouted inside his skin, which tore it off while coming out of his body.
'As if this all pain wasn't enough, ugh…this is too hard.'
After tens of more wounds and some blood loss, Licht finally healed his broken bone.
'Phew, at least it didn't go in muscles, would have been a real if it did,'
'Broken and disjointed bones is enough as it is,'
Albeit the bone was now somewhat thicker than before, but even this was better than nothing.
Finally getting some feeling back in his hand, Licht first bought two potions from the shop.
'No time to be cheap,'
Just as the first bottle manifested in his hand, he slammed it onto his chest.
The bottle broke into hundreds of pieces as the liquid got absorbed by his clothes and then by his body.
Only for a moment, a calming sensation spread throughout his body just when the usual pain descended.
'Everything in this world is sadist,' thought Licht while gritting his teeth.
He drank the second potion when the pain from the first one went away.
He couldn't waste time. The more time he took the worse his hanging hand got.
Licht looked wild in all the sweat and blood drenching his body, but he finally did it!
Grabbing the pike in his hand, Licht pulled his body above as he sat on it.
He broke the lock holding his hand as the pike jiggled in the air for a moment.
Finally getting some relief in his spasming muscles, Licht looked above him.
"I swear, the world is sadist," another scream resounded as a bone-popping noise could be heard in the background.

Escarpment: The steep slope or the wall of a cliff.
