Im not sure how I should describe the state of the battle after that. But I was just simply overwheld by the Tenraij, unable to do anything.
"GARU!"
"Chi!"
Even dodging was difficult against this monster. The speed of the Tenraij has already far surpassed and each of its blows had the power to bring certain death.
Although direct attacks could be evaded, by grazing its body alone, my HP was reduced by nearly 1000 from the physical pain and impact of the lightning cladding its body.
At this rate, I would just get destroyed. I couldn't even try to counter-attack because the Tenraij always moved at high speeds, providing no chance to do so.
Then, would it be better to use [Transfer Within Dungeon] to sneak into its bosom? No, it's impossible. To activate [Transfer Within Dungeon], at least 1 second was required. And there was no way to make such ti in a battle at this level.
In the end, I could only do my best to evade its attacks after that too. Moreover, defending wasn't even the only problem.
"_Its here!"
As I simply continued evading the attacks, I was finally able to discover a slight gap. Grasping the Naless Sword with one hand, I slashed the forefoot of the Tenraij.
However, it was rcilessly deflected by the barrier_ and thats not all.
"Wha!"
The mont my blade touched the barrier, the lightning cladding the Tenraij struck through the Naless Sword, blinding my sight for a mont due to the intense shock and burning heat. At the sa ti, my HP reduced by 3000.
The Tenraij's attack didn't end just like that. Towards who stopped moving after being hit by lightning, it launched a follow-up-attack.
And I couldn't dodge it.
"Gaha.!"
Receiving the heavy kick from the Tenraij, I was blown away by a sheer force to the rear without being able to take an ukemi.1 Then, after bouncing off the ground many tis, the motion finally stopped as if I was groveling there.
HP 14345/78380 was displayed at the edge of my vision. With that attack alone, more than half of my HP was scrapped. If I received another attack, surely only death would await.
And right now, in order to make that thought reality, the Tenraij rushed toward with all its might.
"S-shit!"
I stimulated my bloodied body that bore several broken bones to get up and tried to evade the rushing Tenraij.
However, at that mont, I realized. That considering my current state and the speed of the Tenraij, it would be too late to evade.
but, so what? Should I just give up?
_don't kid !
"I will not die in this kind of place!!"
Squeezing in a last bit of power, I jumped out of the spot while knowing it was useless.
Imdiately after, with a rumble, a huge crater was created on the ground due to the trampling attack of the Tenraij. I was certain anything below was crushed into dust.
And I looked at that scene from a distance.
".Eh?"
The fact that I was able to evade in ti was sothing that made even myself surprised. Originally, I should have been squashed under the Tenraij by this ti. So, how did I even evade it?
And here I rembered the existence of a certain skill.
"I see! It's Resilience!"
______
Resilience Lv1:
20% to Attack Power, Speed, and Intelligence when HP was below 30%
50% to Attack Power, Speed, and Intelligence when HP was below 20%
100% to Attack Power, Speed, and Intelligence when HP was below 10%
_______
Currently, my HP was 14345/78380 which was less than 20%. Therefore, the skill was activated and as a result of the 50% increase in my speed, I was able to dodge in ti.
"Really, even though I just said this is a skill that shouldn't be used as much as possible, this kind of thing happens right away, huh."
At any rate, because of that, I was able to escape from death.
The Tenraij who seed to didn't even think I could evade the attack was silently looking at the situation. In the anti, I have to devise a counterasure to break through the current situation.
Better yet, should I just launch an attack relying on the effect of [Resilience]? If it's now when my attack power and speed was increased by 50%, I might have a chance to fight against the Tenraij on an equal footing.
"No, not like that."
However, I shook my head.
If this was a situation where I could defeat the enemy with a single blow that uses all my might, I might have chosen that thod. However, since the Tenraij was cladded with a barrier, I have to strike at least several tis before being able to damage its body.
In addition to that, every ti my attack was hit, a strike of lightning would counter-attack which could cause my remaining HP to beco zero in the blink of an eye.
"This is such a waste but there is no other way because this is not a situation where I could grumble about sothing like this."
I took the Full Potion from [Item Box] and drank it at once. At that mont, all my injuries were healed in an instant and my HP and MP completely recovered.
The problem starts here. It was necessary to think of a breakthrough plan to defeat the Tenraij.
"What should I do?"
All of the enemy's statuses far exceeded mine and even if I wanted to launch an attack, its body was protected by a barrier of lightning. On the other hand, the attack unleashed from the massive body of the Tenraij could easily take my life.
Just like a predator and its prey. That kind of relationship crossed my mind.
No matter how I devised a plan, I felt like nothing would work. With the weapon I possessed right now, it was impossible to break through the defense of the Tenraij, much less damage the skin
"_There is. Just one."
At that mont, a certain plan cos to my mind. It was a ridiculous and unrealistic plan.
"Do such things really possible?"
My rational side tried to reject the idea. However, my instinct scread at that this was the sole thod to overturn the current situation.
"GURUUUU!"
"Hiss!"
However, I have no ti to keep thinking about that. Because the Tenraij slowly approached warily, as if telling that this ti, it won't allow to escape and finish off.
And here, I made up my mind.
"I, will not run."
I lowered my stance while telling myself like that. Victory or defeat will be concluded in a mont.
"I willsurpass the limit!"
And with a powerful step, I rushed toward the Tenraij.
"GUOOOOOOOO!"
On the opposite, the Tenraij also accelerated to respond to . Then, the Naless Sword that I swung and the claws of the Tenraij collided that instant!
"Here!"
Without swinging down the Naless Sword, I evaded the claws within a hair's breadth and slipped into its chest with that montum. Just after that, the positions of who was running at maximum speed and the Tenraij coincided.
The power of an attack wasn't determined solely based on strength but strength x speed. And at this mont, the relative speed between and the Tenraij reached the maximum.
I didn't just swing the Naless Sword at full speed. But the Tenraij also approached the sword at a maximum speed!
In other words, this was the strongest attack that surpassed the limit I could bring out, that even used the power of the Tenraij!
With this, it should be possible to break through the barrier with a single blow!
"Eat this!!"
The blade that contained unprecedented power swung at the Tenraij.
And then,
The blade, cut the air.
". Ha?"
That blow should have definitely hit it. Confused by the fact that the swing of the blade failed to hit its target, my movent stopped for a mont. And I instantly understood the cause.
"Its above!"
Most likely, right before receiving my attack, the Tenraij made a sudden break and jumped. It was an evading thod that was possible only because it possessed an explosive instantaneous force.
When I looked up, the figure of the Tenraij was undoubtedly there. Not only that. The Tenraij also exploited gravity to swing its massive legs down toward who was directly below it.
"tss!"
It was an almost aningless resistance, even if I raised the Naless Sword in between on the spur of the mont. Because the trampling attack released from the Tenraij with its inordinately weight alone could be deadly.
A big crater was once again created due to its trampling. And this ti, without being able to dodge, I was also swallowed by that.
"Gha!"
Due to that feeling of pressure, the air was leaked from my lungs and almost half of my HP also reduced in the blink of an eye.
Even if I wanted to escape from here right now, the Tenraij would not remove its leg that was still stepping on . Looks like it intends to continuously injure by throwing lightning from its body.
The Tenraij already knew that I couldn't get out of this situation with my power. That's why, it was rely silently watching until I used up all of my strength without launching a follow-up attack.
In the end, without being able to do anything, I will die from the damage caused by the lightning_
"That's what you thought, right?"
While fearlessly laughed, I muttered.
Unfortunately, I have no intention to do what the Tenraij aid. Because although it was true that the lightning attacks assaulted , I barely received any damage. The reason was simple. Because before the last clash, I drank the magic pill.
_____
Magic Pill
By drinking this, reduce magic attacks taken by 99% for 10 seconds.
_____
The bonus reward of the sixth floor, Magic Pill.
I used this item that could almost nullify the damage caused by magic for 10 seconds. As long as Ive drunk this, I don't have to worry about the damage even if I was continuously touching the Tenraij within 10 seconds.
It was certainly unexpected for that the attack that I unleashed with all my might was avoided. But, I never thought I could defeat it with that attack to begin with. I just lured the heavily damaged Tenraij to trample on who slipped into its bosom.
Although the process was different, the situation where I was trampled down by the Tenraij was just as I expected.
Then, why did I want to create this kind of situation? There was only one answer.
Because the Tenraij who wanted to keep trampled, will not move its leg from . And just silently wait for my life to endfor a few seconds.
And this mont was what I had been waiting for.
"GURU!?"
Perhaps noticing that I didn't seem to be injured, let alone die no matter how long it waits, the complexion of the Tenraij finally changed. Seemingly thinking that it couldnt stay like this, it raised the other forefoot which wasn't the one that was putting pressure on .
It seems the Tenraij was trying to squash once again, but it was too late. Because the ti required to activate it has already passed.
Then, albeit quietly, I clearly said.
"Transfer Within Dungeon"
The condition of using [Transfer Within Dungeon] was Transfer only possible to the dungeon where the caster has set foot in.
Due to the change of the condition, I was able to beco this strong in a short period of ti because I was able to level-up at a high speed, ignoring the re-challenge intermission.
However, there was another way to utilize the [Transfer Within Dungeon].
And it was different from transferring behind the enemy or to the sky to launch an attack like when I was fighting the Naless Knight or the Orc General. There was a simpler and the most effective way to manifest its effect.
Until now, I couldn't even think about this thod because I have not fought any enemies that fulfilled the condition to utilize this thod. But, theoretically, this should be possible. If the opponent was a huge monster that could even swallow entirely just like the Tenraij.
That's why, at the last mont, in the dark place where no light reaches, I declared only a few words to the Tenraij.
"Inside your body could still be called inside the dungeon, right?"
And then the blade I brandished pierced the Tenraijs body from the inside. Soon after, the Tenraij roared loudly because of the pain.
"GAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"
As expected, it seems like the barrier couldnt protect even the inside of its body.
As if the hardship I felt previously was a lie, my attack worked against it. Such a chance will never co again. That's why I have to kill it right now!
"Haaa!"
A dozen of sword slashes cut through the darkness surrounding . In a blink of an eye, the clouded sky jumped into my sight as a hole was created in the body of the Tenraij. And perhaps because of receiving severe damage, the barrier was no longer there.
"This is!"
Promptly after that, lightning ran through the body of the Tenraij. It was probably the counterasure that the Tenraij who knew I was inside its body thought of.
The effect of the Magic Pill has worn off. Hence, I couldnt afford to receive the lightning attack directly. Thus, I jumped out of the body of the Tenraij through the hole that opened in front of .
Subsequently, I looked down at the Tenraij from the sky. Despite that there was a hole in its body, the Tenraij was desperately trying to resist as it looked at who was floating in the sky with bloodshot eyes.
"GAAAAAAAAA!"
"Do you think I will let you!"
Avoiding the ferocious bite attack from the Tenraij, I slashed its huge neck with all my might!
This is a crucial mont. Ignore the lightning strikes and devote all my nerves just to attack!
My blade smoothly penetrated the neck of the Tenraij who had lost its barrier. Fresh blood fluttered in the air as the Tenraij roared in pain.
And then, I launched my final onslaught!
"Uooooooooooooooo!"
"GRUOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
A battle of instinct between beasts that were about to die. From here onward, it will be a clash of willpower that has surpassed beyond limits. And only those who overca it can survive.
In that case, I will bring you to your end and survive!
Approximately 30 seconds have passed since the exchange of offense and defense that felt like forever begun. While the equivalent amount of damage was accumulated on each other, our movents were beginning to show a difference.
Because there was a hole in its body and every part of its body was injured, the movent of the Tenraij was slowed down considerably.
On the other hand, due to the decrease in HP, the skill [Resilience] was activated once again thus accelerating my movent further.
And finally, the final mont arrived.
The Tenraij launched an attack using both its front legs and mouth and completely abandoned its defense. There was no escape for in all directions If thats the case!
I strongly kicked the ground and jumped into the air.
The simultaneous attacks of the Tenraij didn't invade the sky and pierced the area where I stood before. And then, I grasped the Naless Sword with both of my hands in the air and launched the final attack!
"This is, the end!"
It was the best attack I could unleash that used everything I had. And my blade which stuck that way, deeply pierced the head of the Tenraij.
"Goooo"
While raising the last cry of agony, the Tenraij slowly collapsed. And my body was imdiately propelled next to it.
I sohow managed to land with my trembling legs and readied the Naless Sword in case the Tenraij woke up once again. However, it looks like it was not necessary.
Because the announcent from the sound of the system that signaled the end of the quest reverberated in my head one after another. Therefore, for the first ti, I realized that I was able to defeat the Tenraij.
" It's really over, huh."
Thus, Ive conquered all floors in the extra dungeon Isolated Demon Tower.
