972 Episode 0972



"Well, I don't have to worry about anything else for now, but what should I do?"
"Oh, my gosh!"

 Perhaps taking Ray's words as a provocation, the Red Cyclops glares at him with his tusks exposed.
 His left hand always clenched his fist at Ray.
 I'm just clenched in my fist, but it's a monster of a cyclops about five meters tall, and the human body is easily beaten to death... No, it's as powerful as it could break.
 In fact, Ray thought it was not difficult to take human life, given that he had the power to swing a hammer easily.

(Huh? Wait... What...?)

 Facing such a red cyclops, Ray raises questions.
 Previously, the red cyclops standing in front of Ray seemed to be protecting his right hand, although he had shown a healing ability that would regenerate immediately if his body was amputated, and would stick to him immediately if he had to cut it off from his right shoulder.
 No, it's not like that, it's actually protecting them.
 That further deepens Ray's doubts.
 Why isn't my right elbow recovering even though I'm showing such abnormal regenerative ability?
 Crushed right elbow must be a serious injury.
 However, the injury should be nothing compared to the amputation of the torso.

(that is, there must be some kind of seed, after all.)

 You may not have understood Ray's question, but the red cyclops grabs the handle of a hammer falling to the ground with his free left hand.
 In an instant, the blood from the right elbow of the red cyclops, which had been crushed by a death-size blow, stops flowing, and the bones that had broken through the skin also retreat into the body.

"Well, that's your immortal seed,"

 The red cyclops reveal what could be called abnormalities, as if to answer Ray's question.
 As well as the secret of his high regenerative ability, Ray questioned his behavior, but once he understood that Cyclops was not intelligent, he was convinced.
 In other words, he is trying to frighten Ray by showing the secret of his power.

"Even though he was good at it, he didn't seem to be wise enough to his brain." You're a third-rate magician to teach yourself magic tricks, though you can't be as dexterous as a magician."
"Oh my gosh? Oh my gosh!"

 The Red Cyclops roars with anger, perhaps because he understands that Ray is provoking him even if he doesn't understand what he says.
 As his anger goes, the Red Cyclops shifts his hammer from his left hand to his right hand and shakes it away from Ray.
 But perhaps his anger was too strong, and the blow he tried to strike at Ray with all his might was a big blow.

"It's not dull enough to take such a blow!"

 At the same time as he screams, Ray leaps diagonally to the right... toward the left as seen from the red cyclops.
 A large hammer blow hits the ground without catching Ray, and thunder crawls through the ground creating craters.
 The Red Cyclops have thundered away their speed, even against anyone with some quick movement.
 I'm sure you've thought from your experience that even if you try to be a little irritable, you'll be able to damage it with lightning, but it's a different story if Ray's figure is in the air, not on the ground.
 Slapnil shoes, magic items that can be stepped on in the air.
 For Ray, who is good at speed-oriented battles, this magic item has been saved many times in the past battles.
 Once again, he relies on the magic item to kick the wall of the air and wield his magic like a triangular jump.

"Powerslash!"

 a similar blow just now
 The difference is that this time, instead of a death-size blade, it aimed at a red cyclops torso in the handle.
 If it were a blade, it would recover from the cut edge as before.
 Then he ultimately decided that it would be more efficient to blow it off with a blow.
 ...yes, not in this forest, but in a place where all the trees a little further away were pulled out by the cyclops and made into open spaces.

"Oops!"

 The death size weighs about 100 kg.
 If Ray's strength and powerslash were added to it, even a red cyclops about 5 meters tall could not stand it.
 overwhelming mass transmitted through a death‐size handle
 The mass of his muscles combined with the weight of his right hand's clenched hammer, and even Ray could not blow his opponent away without a blow that was delivered with all his might.

"Oh my gosh!"

 With a cry of disbelief, the red cyclops blow through the air.
 I didn't know I would be blown away by such a small creature.
 such a cry as if not convinced of the fact
 Still, the fact that it had been blown away was unaltered, and by the time the red cyclops bounced over the ground several times, they had no trees around them.
 The five cyclops are ordered back to where the trees were uprooted for easy movement.

"...well, if there are no trees around me, I can fight to my heart's content." To be honest, corrosion takes time, but it is not difficult to destroy the weapon..."

 Even if it's a powerful magic item, it doesn't make sense if you can't use it well.
 The red cyclops have a strong muscle, and they can wield a hammer with one hand.
 However, it is only a general swing.
 A slugged hammer with no skill would be a fatal blow if hit.
 However, there is no way that Ray will be attacked with no skill, just wielding all his might.

(Well, if you were good at it, you would have had to use corrosion, too. I was inclined to take that hammer, for I could only attack with all my might.)

 Given that it is a huge mass of metal, it is only natural that it is purely a hammering power. But what drew Ray's attention above all was the effect as a magic item.
 Lightning is generated at the place where it is struck, and abnormal regenerative capacity is given to the user.
 If you're asked if you can use a ray in a real battle, it's hard to handle because of its huge size, and it's impossible to use it on a daily basis.
 And Ray's ability to give the owner an extraordinary amount of regenerative power even seems a little creepy.

(If you think about it in detail, the low intelligence of this rare or superior species can be considered as a side effect of this hammer. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

 The Red Cyclops probably judged him to be an alert opponent because of the fact that a small opponent in front of him had blown him this far.
 Pick up a hammer and let out a roar with its tusks.

"Oh my gosh!"

 If you're not an adventurer... no, if you're an adventurer or a newcomer, your feet will tremble, your heart will be filled with fear, and you'll be slow.
 Some people may even be shocked to death.
 It was such a savage scream, but Ray ignored it like the wind, and even looked around him to see the battlefield.
 After hearing a general shout, Ray opens his mouth with a death-size smile in his hand.

"Well, is the performance over? If you can show me a little more interesting performance, I can go out with you a little more..."
"Oh my gosh!"

 Those who have heard it up until now are frightened and must have lost their fighting spirit.
 When I hear that, I feel that the presence in front of me is beyond my comprehension.
 But I still couldn't admit it because I was in my position of following the other cyclops.
 What is in front of you is nothing more than your own game.
 He forced himself to tell him, and when he smashed his body with one blow at the evidence, he shook his hammer...

"It's sweet,"

 With the murmur, the red cyclops take a few steps back, dominated by instinctive fear.
 I found something around me that was overwhelmingly smaller than I was.
 something invisible but certain
 Originally, cyclops do not have the ability to sense magic, but they were able to sense the magic of compressing and concentrating around the ray, whether it was because of the use of magic item hammering or because they were rare or superior species. ...it's done.

"Oh my gosh? Oh my gosh!"

 Something is going on that I don't understand.
 The red cyclops, determined to do something about the small presence in front of him, shrinks his distance with a hammer... momentarily, he pauses again in the intense heat and retreats.
 For some reason, I noticed that the little presence before me was wearing something red and looked at me in a detached way.
 What's unusual is that even though you're wearing something red, your presence itself is increasing.
 The red cyclops instinctively felt that as they approached, they were exposed to the heat alone, and perhaps more than a burn if touched directly.
 If this had been an ordinary cyclops, perhaps there would have been a way out of course.But the Red Cyclops could not do such a disgraceful thing because they were so confident in their own power, and because they were so proud to have dominated other cyclops by force.

"Gee, gee, "Oh, my God!"

 such a shout as if to inspire oneself
 At the same time, the hammer held by the red cyclops pulsates.
 and the surface of the hand holding the hammer shows the blood vessels that you can see."

(No!)

 For a moment, it seems like a blood vessel is eroding the body of the red cyclops... or rather, it spreads as if it were growing roots in the body.

"Oh, my gosh? Oh, my gosh!

 The red cyclops must have noticed it. They scream, they scream, they scream, they fear, or whether being rooted in the body causes severe echoes around her.
 But the scream was nothing but a scream, not the kind of scream we had been screaming before.

"What?"

 The red cyclops in front of him had the confidence to knock him down as soon as he wanted.
 What is screaming in front of Ray is probably a rare or superior species of cyclops.
 Rare species, however, regardless of their superior status, have the ability to rank above the underlying species.
 That means the red cyclops are rank B monsters.
 ... Ray is certainly a Rank B adventurer, but he's not just a Rank B adventurer. have the ability to compete with a Rank S adventurer
 That's why we observe the suffering of the red cyclops, thinking that even if they are rank B monsters, they won't lose unless they're careful.
 The hammer in his hand is apparently the cause of the present phenomenon, but it was the first sight in Ray's eyes.
 If left as it is, the red cyclops will undoubtedly be stronger than they are now.
 But Ray doesn't want to miss this scene at all costs, partly because of the magic items involved.

"Will it be transformed by magic items? It won't be the boss of the game."

 Ray muttered while recalling the game he played in Japan, but the red cyclops continues to change, saying that it doesn't matter.
 The muscles in the right hand holding the hammer are more enlarged and look abnormal compared to the body, which was originally huge.
 The roots stretched throughout the body from the hammer pulsate, and each time the roots, which appear to be beneath the skin, are reddish black, flashing dull light.

"Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

 The light of will vanishes from the giant eyes of the red cyclops who screamed like death... and takes a step towards Ray as if he were being remotely controlled.

"Is this the result?" I suppose that's why I shouldn't have touched that hammer earlier."

 While thanking him for his good fortune, Ray awaits the red cyclops who awkwardly walk up to him with a death-size hand.
