Chapter 234
234: One Dohyun, Two Dohyun, Three Dohyun!?(4)
* * *
KWAAAAAAAAAAA——!!!
Just as Hanalin and Jiyuchan sensed something going terribly wrong, the explosion sent Dohyun ricocheting across the ground in violent bounces before he crashed into the wall with bone-shattering force.
KUUUUUUUUNG———!!!
The shockwave rippled outward in all directions, the deafening roar echoing through the space. Though Dohyun’s mind reeled from the impact as if his skull might shatter, his transcendent physiology and regenerative prowess allowed him to recover swiftly. He looked up at the figure walking toward him—a being identical to himself in every way.
This was his own avatar, infused with the consciousness of the Ruin’s Dragon Solvent, yet Dohyun stared at it as if the very concept defied all reason.
“Hah.”
A hollow laugh escaped his lips as he nodded in acknowledgment, quickly composing himself and rising to his feet despite the lingering shock.
The psychological impact cut far deeper than any physical pain his body could register.
‘I’m losing?’
Even though I refrain from using Analysis to dissect the Ruin’s Dragon Solvent’s attack patterns to hone my own skills, the body it inhabits is none other than my own. In other words, our physical specifications are identical.
Yet if the Ruin’s Dragon Solvent wielded my body more effectively than I do, it meant I still haven’t unlocked my full potential.
I’d always known this to some degree. But why did it sting so much?
‘This is infuriating.’
Something wielding my own body better than I could? Even if the Ruin’s Dragon Solvent was merely a fragment of my own consciousness, the rage was inevitable.
It was like being a veteran main champion in a game, only to lose to a younger sibling who’d just started playing. The thought alone made my blood boil.
With eyes blazing, I rose to my feet just as the Ruin’s Dragon Solvent approached, its mouth spreading wide in what seemed like joy.
“Ka! Kak! Ka!”
Unable to produce proper speech, it emitted those grating, metallic sounds reminiscent of a reptile. The sight was almost reptilian in nature, and as I observed it, Analysis provided information I hadn’t even requested.
[The Ruin’s Dragon Solvent lacks sufficient rank to express intent clearly.]
[The Ruin’s Dragon Solvent is displaying joy while demonstrating its usefulness to its master.]
Observing this, I detected several important clues.
‘So eventually it will be able to speak?’
As that thought crossed my mind, Analysis displayed affirmative text, but I quickly dismissed it and charged toward the Ruin’s Dragon Solvent.
Unlike Hanalin, Jiyuchan, and the Plague Lord, the Ruin’s Dragon Solvent and I fought with nothing but our bare bodies—no weapons, pure physical combat. As I rushed forward, the Ruin’s Dragon Solvent stood its ground, as if inviting me to come.
Seeing that composed stance, I gritted my teeth and kicked off the ground with explosive force.
WHOOOOSH——!!
The air shattered as my speed became incomprehensibly fast, the atmosphere compressing around me. But I didn’t stop there—I accelerated once more, my foot striking the ground again.
THUNDEROUS BOOM———!!!
With even greater force than before, the entire building trembled, and my form seemed to dissolve into the midair itself, vanishing from sight.
For an instant, I had transcended sound itself with my terrifying velocity. Yet since the Ruin’s Dragon Solvent and I shared identical physical specifications, it too could perceive my speed and raised its arm to meet my incoming strike.
My fist, extended toward the Ruin’s Dragon Solvent, was drawn in as if naturally flowing into its grasp, and my knuckles made contact with its palm.
Then.
CATASTROPHIC EXPLOSION———!!!
With a deafening roar, the air compressed to its absolute limit and light erupted outward. In that brilliant flash, intense radiance bleached the entire battlefield white with pure luminescence and shadow, yet the Ruin’s Dragon Solvent had stopped the punch with nothing but a raised arm.
Of course.
CRRRUNCH——!!!
The bones in its arm and hand had been pulverized into dust in grotesque directions, leaving the Ruin’s Dragon Solvent’s left limb fluttering like a silicone rag in the backlash, though it regenerated almost immediately, swelling slightly as it healed.
Soon, the left arm of the Ruin’s Dragon Solvent became embedded with ash-gray scales in a manner impossible to discern, and even the hand transformed into that of a dragon as it flew toward me.
I had resolved not to use Analysis, so there was no way for me to know of this bizarre transformation, yet I grasped it instinctively.
Realizing it was one of the Ruin’s Dragon Solvent’s built-in skills, I began channeling my own power without conscious thought.
I activated my second trait, Fusion, drawing forth my arm and my own skill, the Ruin’s Dragon Solvent, from within and merging them with a portion of my arm.
And then.
Crackle, crackle, crackle.
Scales sprouted from my arm, and my arm too became identical to the Ruin’s Dragon Solvent’s left hand, and I hurled my right arm toward the Ruin’s Dragon Solvent’s left arm.
The Ruin’s Dragon Solvent, as if proud of me, grinned widely with a mouth that had grown jagged like saw teeth, and likewise hurled its left fist toward my incoming right punch.
And then.
In an instant, mana and the Dragon Solvent’s flesh merged through Fusion, and two punches exceeding C-rank power collided.
Boom—————————————!!!
The collision of fists sent both of us flying backward, and the Ruin’s Dragon Solvent, which had barely strayed from its position until now, was hurled far away and crashed into the wall, and I suffered the same fate.
Yet the moment both of us hit the wall, we bounced back out, and in that instant, I could feel it.
‘What kind of body is this?’
Even though my arm and fist had just taken a crushing impact, I watched in astonishment as they regenerated in the blink of an eye, and I swallowed hard.
There was mana consumption, certainly more than I expected, but with mana expenditure less than muscle healing, I could completely regenerate my body. Without using Analysis, the assessment wasn’t precise, but with this level of regeneration, I could likely regrow severed limbs.
It felt as though I had truly transcended humanity, yet that wasn’t what mattered now.
“Haaah.”
As I took a deep breath, the Ruin’s Dragon Solvent, still composed, walked forward and moved its body as if flaunting its intact form.
We were both fighting bare-handed, but to be honest, I held a slight advantage in this situation.
The Ruin’s Dragon Solvent was a clone, and it had already suffered damage twice—broken arms.
Even though it had regenerated, the fact that damage had been inflicted didn’t disappear, so if I landed one more blow, the body housing the Ruin’s Dragon Solvent would likely collapse.
Of course, that didn’t necessarily mean victory for me, but I felt that if the Ruin’s Dragon Solvent’s body vanished like that, it would be quite a shame.
“I’ll win perfectly.”
At my words, the Ruin’s Dragon Solvent nodded as if that was how it should be, and cried out with great joy.
“Caw! Caw caw!!”
The Ruin’s Dragon Solvent still couldn’t speak entirely, but at least I could understand what it meant.
Come as much as you want.
Grasping that meaning, I grinned.
Such a satisfying bout—the clone technique truly was the best, I thought, and began preparing. The technique of merging the Ruin’s Dragon Solvent’s power with my body was quite extraordinary.
However.
‘The mana consumption is too severe.’
This would likely be the last time for the Ruin’s Dragon Solvent as well. Reluctant to end it here, I considered this as I prepared, releasing all my mana.
As I charged forward with mana released and pure bare-handed combat, the Ruin’s Dragon Solvent understood my intent and laughed loudly.
“Caw! Caw! Caw!”
Until now we had clashed with explosive power and force, infusing mana into our strikes, but now I was proposing we fight with pure flesh alone, and it could accept this meaning.
I had various martial arts and body control techniques gained through Analysis embedded in my mind, but this was the first time I was actually drawing upon and using them 100% fully.
Yet the Ruin’s Dragon Solvent was different.
It had fought and destroyed across an immeasurable span of time beyond my comprehension.
For such a being, bare-handed combat was the most fundamental, easier than breathing itself.
Despite such a gap in power, Dohyun charged forward at Ruin’s Dragon Solvent, and Ruin’s Dragon Solvent gladly accepted the challenge.
Dohyun made the first move.
Whoosh.
Though devoid of mana and lacking the devastating force that would accompany it, a single punch from Dohyun would seal the fate of any lower-tier monster in this C-rank Zone—or frankly, any ordinary human.
Yet when Ruin’s Dragon Solvent lightly flicked Dohyun’s wrist, the trajectory of the punch veered from its intended course. As Dohyun’s extended arm created an opening, Ruin’s Dragon Solvent gently curled a fist with the same hand that had deflected him and hurled it back at Dohyun.
Thud!
Though lighter than the punch Dohyun had thrown, the impact still carried considerable force—a testament to how exceptional Dohyun’s physique truly was.
The blow struck his head, rattling his brain and blurring his vision, yet another fist from Ruin’s Dragon Solvent was already hurtling toward him.
Dohyun hastily tilted his head and arched his back to evade the punch, only to realize that Ruin’s Dragon Solvent had already hooked his rear leg—and as Dohyun leaned back to retreat, he tripped and fell.
Crash.
Ruin’s Dragon Solvent brought his foot down toward Dohyun’s head, but even as Dohyun’s brain reeled and his vision swam, he rolled his body swiftly to avoid the descending heel.
Boom——!
The stomp was devastating despite the absence of mana, and before a chill could even run down Dohyun’s spine, he rolled across the ground and swept his leg upward in a low kick.
Whoosh!
Dohyun’s eyes gleamed as he watched Ruin’s Dragon Solvent leap to avoid the whip-like arc of his leg.
As if he had anticipated this, Dohyun moved with explosive speed, spinning his body toward the airborne Ruin’s Dragon Solvent and unleashing a series of rotating spinning kicks that surged forward with the full force of his rotation.
Yet.
Whoooooosh———!!!
Dohyun’s powerful kicks cleaved through empty air, and as he stared in bewilderment at Ruin’s Dragon Solvent, the figure hovered motionless in the midair, regarding him with an expression that seemed to ask, “What’s wrong?”
Dohyun trembled as he watched Ruin’s Dragon Solvent—who had been told not to use mana—now gliding through the air with dragon wings unfurled.
‘…So this is what it feels like to spar with me.’
Dohyun was experiencing a taste of his own medicine.
