Chapter 172: The Power of Orthus

Chapter 172: The Power of Orthus

My right arm was severed as three ice stakes pierced my chest.

A black chain appeared on my left hand and I waved it to grab Kilt's right leg.

As the chain wrapped around his leg, the chain became covered in small sharp fangs that pierced Kilt's skin as they ripped out a shard of his childhood memories, but before my attack could damage his soul, I was shot in the back with the force equivalent of a bomb to bring down buildings which exploded most of my body leaving me with only my head, neck, half of my chest and my right shoulder.

Before my body regenerated, an ice ability covered my body enclosing me in a block of ice, and then I was cut 20 times by Kilt's swords.

Before my body was completely destroyed, I rebuilt my heart and used it as a catalyst to generate vibrations that covered everything around me, forming multiple shockwaves that destroyed the ice that covered me.

Although the Reincarnated named Roro was able to withstand my attack since he has the ability of slimes to negate impact effects, Kilt and Anastasia's internal organs were hit by the vibrations causing their hearts to almost be crushed but when they were about to die, I felt a strange movement in space and the three Reincarnated disappeared.

Before I could chase after the injured Reincarnates, a golden arrow headed for my head.

I was able to regenerate my right arm which was covered with a black steel battering ram with a lion's head and hit the arrow causing a huge explosion of golden flames.

I used [Ki] to form a shell to protect myself from the flames and although the heat was enough to melt steel, I am immune to extreme temperatures.

I didn't dispel the golden flames and took advantage of this moment to finish regenerating my body.

When my body was rebuilt, I waved my hand causing the flames to start swirling around me. I controlled the flow of air to gather the flames into a sphere in my hand and then looked in the direction of the Reincarnated.

The woman with the space ability saved her companions and Flare healed them so they were now unharmed.

"Humans from another world, fighting is useless" - I closed my fist extinguishing the golden flames. – "Accept the fate of perishing in my hands for the greater good"

A three-meter war hammer appeared in my hands and I hurriedly attacked the space-skilled woman.

A bone dragon appeared out of nowhere and opened its jaws to try to bite me, but my wings changed into two large dog heads that clamped down on the top and bottom of the dragon's jaws.

Both dog heads forcibly opened the dragon's jaws breaking its jaw.

I gathered vibrations into the hammer and then used it to smash into the dragon's skull causing the bones to turn to dust as a powerful shockwave caused an explosion.

When the bone dragon disappeared, I was greeted by a magic bullet that destroyed the right half of my body.

I formed a black spear in my left hand and threw it at the flying woman who was holding a rifle.

The woman managed to evade the spear thanks to her speed comparable to a fighter plane, but when the spear flew past her it exploded into thousands of blood needles that scattered everywhere. L1tLagoon witnessed the first publication of this chapter on Ñøv€l--B1n.

Five needles managed to hit the woman's back, but again she disappeared and I could feel that my link with those needles was severed so I couldn't contaminate that woman's mind.

A huge magic circle appeared below me and suddenly a pillar of golden fire covered my body.

I covered my body with [Anti-Rasen] to decrease the force of the magic flames, then my hand turned into a drill that was covered with [Rasen] and I went down to the ground to destroy the magic circle in one hit.

When the circle was destroyed, the golden fire pillar disappeared, but I immediately received a magical shot that destroyed my head while my body was split in half as an eagle claw ripped through my heart.

I hurried to the inn and saw that both Looper and Imerda were unconscious while Envy was waiting for me in her real appearance.

"I knocked them out when the explosion happened so they won't know it was Seiji who attacked them" - Envy sneered as she looked at the two Reincarnated.

"Nice job" – I nodded and walked over to Looper.

I pierced the skull of the Reincarnated with my finger and used Ortro's ability to devour minds.

Memories, personality, and self-concept, everything was devoured by Ortro leaving only an empty shell.

I didn't kill him as I want to analyze his body and soul to understand the origin of the Reincarnated abilities as well as I want to see if I can extract his unique skill to create magical artifacts to help me protect the lives of my wives.

I didn't just do this to turn 'Looper' into an alchemy material, even if this man can get his mind back by going back in time, he won't have any memories of what happened so he won't be able to mess up my plans.

I don't know if this will create an eternal time loop where Looper goes back to the past with no memories and becomes my lab rat again, but since Higher Entities aren't affected by time, it's not my problem.

I looked at Imerda.

From what I know, she's a narcissistic and materialistic woman, but compared to Flare, she's still tolerable.

"Hey Listen! You should at least add a Reincarnated to your harem! You can't kill all these idiot women!" – Navi appeared in front of me and shouted anxiously.

This idiot sees my harem as a collection of rare coins...

I sighed and went back to my Seiji guise, then looked for the space anchor that 'Restaurant from Another World' uses to teleport her companions.

It turned out to be a strange tattoo below the navel... What strange tastes the Japanese have.

I made Imerda unable to wake up, then cut off the part of the skin with the tattoo and used [Hamon] to heal the wound without leaving any scars.

I also removed Looper's space anchor and ordered Envy to carry that idiot. Envy nodded and dragged Looper by the leg like a garbage bag.

I put the unconscious Imerda on my shoulders like a sack of rice and sent a message to Witch. - "It's time to go"

"Understood... I'm glad you're okay" - Witch answered with a strange voice.

This woman fell in love with me, she's cute.

When we reached our secret base in the woods, I tossed Imerda aside, then headed for the couch.

"Are you fine?" – Witch approached with an anxious expression.

"Luis?" – System Goddess also approached me with concern.

Tsubaki came out of my Core of Existence and helped me lie down on the sofa. – "Luis is fine, only he is tired and he has a bad headache so it is better if we do not make noise for now"

Tsubaki already knows my plans so she'll be running things while I work to ease my migraine.

Fuck, I really need magic aspirin...
