My Right Hand Is Too Strong Episode 125

Episode 125. Flame Emperor (1)

Gaien swung his sword wide toward me as I charged at him with a deep smile on his face.

[Purgatory – Crimson Lotus Arc Slash]

A blazing slash surging with flames tried to devour me.

I struck the sky to twist my falling trajectory.

The flaming slash ascended above my head.

Landing on the ground, I immediately raised my hand and aimed at Gaien.

[Mist Rend – Smoke Bullet]

I struck hard with my fingernails at the sphere of smoke that formed in front of my hand.

A smoke bullet shot toward Gaien in a straight line.

Gaien took a stance as if he thought he could easily block it with his sword, but.

“…!”

Soon realizing it was impossible, he immediately twisted his body to dodge the mist bullet.

When Gaien regained his stance after twisting his body like that.

“Peek-a-boo.”

I was already above Gaien’s head, raising my fist.

My fist plunged down toward his head.

Gaien immediately reacted to the fist and swung his sword.

“Interesting, very interesting!”

Sword and fist collided violently.

Gaien’s sword fought hard to block my fist, but.

“Ha!”

No matter how strong he was, it wasn’t enough to block the Black Dragon’s fist itself.

Recognizing that his strength was insufficient, Gaien stepped back.

Having successfully deflected my fist, he swung his sword in return.

[Purgatory – Full Fire Horizontal Cut]

A sword trailing black flames like a tail was swung at a precarious distance.

Without even blinking an eye.

I stared directly at the swinging sword.

‘I can see it.’

How his arm moves.

What his muscles are trying to do.

‘The neck.’

The area not covered by clothes.

If I aim there, I can win.

His thoughts like that.

His actions.

All of it was captured in my eyes.

That’s why I twisted my waist and.

“Huh.”

Threw my fist toward the swinging sword.

The sword bounced back from the strong impact.

Not expecting me to deflect this, Gaien looked at me with a flustered face.

But that was only for a moment.

True to someone who said he enjoyed combat, Gaien wore a deep smile instead of bewilderment and instantly corrected his stance while naturally drawing his sword down.

[Purgatory – Explosive Flame Vertical Slash]

Intense heat formed on the sword he was gripping.

Gritting my teeth at this, I stepped forward and struck my fist upward from below.

[Smoke Mist – Rampage]

Two forces exploded violently upon collision.

The area was instantly covered with black flames and black mist.

[Synchronization Rate 10.1%]

The first to move within it was Gaien.

He charged into the black mist and swung his sword horizontally.

I blocked the incoming sword with my right arm.

The flaming sword was blocked by my elbow.

Lowering my arm to push the sword away, I kicked Gaien’s abdomen with my foot.

“…Not a chance!”

Gaien grabbed the foot stuck in his abdomen and slammed me toward the ground.

My body that was driven into the ground bounced up.

Without time to feel pain, I twisted my body and kicked his head as he tried to swing his sword.

Unable to avoid the impact to his head, Gaien staggered for a moment.

In that gap, having landed stably on the ground, I swung my clenched fist at his face.

But my fist didn’t reach.

Because his sword was in the path of my swinging fist.

[Synchronization Rate 10.2%]

It was blocked.

But I had no intention of stopping.

I applied even more force to my blocked fist.

[Smoke Mist – Rampage]

It was the fist that was blocked, not the mist.

Mist exploding at that blocked position.

But Gaien, reacting nimbly, immediately kicked off the ground and retreated.

I didn’t retreat and advanced toward Gaien.

However.

‘…Damn.’

Perhaps due to the impact of being slammed into the ground earlier, my leg was throbbing.

I needed to recover, but the magic energy was interfering with regeneration.

Biting my lips hard and stepping on the ground with my throbbing leg, I blocked his vertically swinging sword with my forearm.

Then I flicked my elbow inward to push his sword aside.

Toward Gaien who had completely exposed his weakness.

“Kuhup-!”

I charged forward with my arm leading.

Thud, thud, thud.

Gaien flew away, bouncing off the ground.

Having barely stopped by driving his sword into the ground, he kicked off the ground while still keeping his sword embedded.

[Purgatory – Ascending Fire]

A single trail formed on the floor.

Charging forward while cutting through the solid floor like tofu, he drew his sword and swung it upward the moment the distance closed.

“—!”

The compressed force using the ground as a sheath shot up toward the sky.

An attack so wide-ranging it was impossible to dodge.

That’s why instead of dodging.

[Mist Rend -Mist]

I compressed all my power into my right hand.

And struck down toward him.

[Synchronization Rate 10.3%]

Flames ascending to the sky and mist staining the ground.

Without anyone going first, we both spat red blood from our mouths.

In the moment my vision blurred, I gritted my teeth and forcibly whipped my unmoving body into action.

[Mist – Rampage]

An explosion erupting not from my fist, but from my foot.

Though insignificant compared to my right hand, it still carried undeniable power as it struck Gaien’s abdomen as he fell.

Gaien’s body floated up and flew far into the distance.

“Haa, haa.”

When was the last time I took a breath?

I couldn’t even tell.

That’s how desperately my lungs craved oxygen.

“…It’s hot.”

But the air in the area was already heated by Gaien’s flames.

With every breath I exhaled, it felt like my airways and lungs were being cooked.

I wiped the blood from my chin with the back of my hand and spat out the blood pooled in my mouth.

[Synchronization Rate 10.4%]

It hurts.

It stings.

There’s not a single intact part of my body.

My cooked skin all over screams in agony.

But I didn’t have the luxury to listen to those complaints.

“Interest, ing… Very interesting!”

His left arm bent in the opposite direction.

Gaien’s face was painted with red blood.

Anyone could see he was far from being fine, yet he still wore a deep smile.

“My soul is howling wildly. That you are my greatest enemy!”

What bullshit.

I’m on the verge of dying from pain right now, and I can’t understand what the hell he’s babbling about.

After staggering once, I took a deep breath and stared ahead.

‘Not much left.’

Both me and Gaien.

We’ve both reached our physical limits long ago.

‘If it weren’t for the magi, it would have been enough.’

The magi seeping into my body gradually tightens around my throat.

I can feel the heat infused with magi slowly melting my muscles.

Soon the magi will melt my muscles, making my movements sluggish.

When that happens, I’ll lose.

So.

‘One last strike.’

I’ll deliver the best strike I can manage.

Taking a deep breath, I bent my knees.

Right foot forward, left foot back.

Taking a stance suitable for charging forward, I clenched my right hand tightly.

[Mist Rend -]

Mist, bloom forth.

Dye the surroundings.

Mana rapidly circulated through the mana circuits in my body.

Breath heated hotter than the surroundings flowed out long through my throat.

Gathering all my strength into my right hand, I straightened my bent knees and shot forward rapidly.

Did he realize my intention?

Gaien wore a twisted smile and let go of his sword.

The flaming sword fell toward the ground.

The moment the sword hit the ground.

It scattered into hundreds of fragments and dispersed into the air.

[Purgatory – Fire Cherry Blossoms]

Like scattering cherry blossoms.

Among the cherry blossoms swaying and falling gracefully was heat that seemed capable of melting even iron.

Each petal contained uncontrollable heat.

Ready to melt any approaching enemy.

‘I can’t get close.’

The moment I approach, I’ll be turned into a honeycomb by those flames.

But you know what.

‘Doesn’t matter, does it?’

My body is already a mess.

Would it matter if it gets even more messed up from here?

I’ll die anyway if I don’t succeed.

So I took a deep breath and.

Actually bent my knees even more.

“You’re craz-.”

Thud-

The ground cracked, unable to withstand the force.

Shot forward at even greater speed, I drove my fist into Gaien’s abdomen.

“-!”

Gaien flew away without even managing to scream.

I didn’t stop there and kicked off the ground again, chasing after the flying Gaien.

“Die.”

I don’t clench my fist.

Claws.

The Black Dragon’s sharp claws judge the wicked.

Sharpening my claws, I drove them into the center of Gaien’s chest.

The claws pierced through, shattering his flaming armor.

Twisting my hand clockwise, I then swept my hand outward.

“Kuaaaaaaak-!”

I pierced his heart.

I tore apart his upper body.

The moment I thought I had finished him off for certain, strength left my body.

“Haa… haa…”

My body, with tension released, collapsed and rolled on the ground.

Rolling around, I gasped roughly and clenched my fist.

It’s over.

I won.

Thinking that, I struggled to get up.

At that moment.

[Purgatory – Flame Hell]

My vision was dyed with black flames.

* * *

Forces endlessly clash.

Everything in the area has already been annihilated.

Except for one place.

“Damn it…!”

Only the place where Hikari and Rai are.

Hikari protected herself and Rai with light squeezed out with all her strength.

But even that was reaching its limit.

Hikari’s face had long since turned pale from completely exhausting her mana.

This was the limit.

She couldn’t hold on any longer.

Just as she was thinking that.

“Hikari! Look over there!”

“…Ah!”

Han Mi-reo’s fist drove into her uncle.

Soon after, Han Mi-reo’s claws tore through her uncle’s torso.

Her uncle flew away scattering red blood while Han Mi-reo fell powerlessly.

It was over.

The battle they hadn’t even dared to interfere with had finally come to an end.

Hikari collapsed the light that had been surrounding them.

Rai, who caught her as she staggered, tried to approach Han Mi-reo.

At that moment.

[Purgatory – Flame Hell]

A massive pillar of flames tall enough to reach the sky struck Han Mi-reo.

The two froze and turned their gaze with creaking movements.

Where their eyes fell.

There stood Gaien, with 40% of his upper body blown away.

He stood there in a form that could no longer be called human.

“Ha, haha! Hahaha! Magic energy, it really is magic energy! Even with my upper body blown away, my life doesn’t end, and it even lets me succeed at techniques I always failed at!”

Drip, drip.

The red blood gradually turned black.

The blackened blood soon became flesh and reconnected.

A form that didn’t feel human at all.

Gaien, who had been laughing wildly and shouting, turned his head to look at Hikari and Rai.

“Ah, right, you two were here.”

Gaien took a step forward.

The ground melted like sticky tar under his footstep.

He stretched out his hand, dripping with black blood, and pointed at the two.

“…Right, you two wouldn’t know about the past. Since this is the end, let me tell you.”

26 years ago when the Great Cataclysm occurred.

At that time, neither Rai nor his older brother were the family head.

Their father.

Narukami Taiyo was the family head.

He was an Awakened with tremendous power during the Great Cataclysm.

An Awakened so strong he far surpassed today’s S-Rank Hunters.

Upon awakening, he used ‘War Cry’ and cut down all the incoming monsters, firmly protecting Narukami and Hokkaido.

“Father designated my older brother, not me, as the family head.”

It was the Narukami family tradition for the eldest son to inherit the position of family head.

Even though they were born as twins, his older brother inherited the position, not him who was born later.

“I hated that.”

It was just a 1-minute difference.

That 1-minute difference changed their social status.

At first, Gaien tried to understand too.

Because he was family and his older brother.

But the thing is.

“My older brother was weaker than me.”

Not only in studies, but in swordsmanship and everything else, he was superior.

Not only that.

Even the unique skill awakened in the Tutorial Tower had a difference as vast as heaven and earth.

“Back then, my older brother was only at what would now be considered B-rank level.”

Could someone with such qualifications really become the head of the great Narukami family?

This was the question that arose.

And he had already provided an answer to this question.

That’s why he.

“Killed him. By dropping a rock onto a moving car.”

Afterward, he naturally tried to inherit the family himself.

However.

“Who would have thought I’d become infertile because of my skill.”

His seed had become unable to produce children due to the indiscriminate heat.

So he decided.

He would pass the family headship to his nephew.

And turn them into puppets to control.

By controlling them, he would use them merely as a means to leave behind his lineage.

“But Rai, you couldn’t keep up with my standards at all.”

Everything was unsatisfactory.

It was just like looking at his older brother.

So he abandoned him.

And made Hikari, who could continue the lineage, his next puppet.

However.

“Now I don’t need that. With magic energy, I can leave my seed to the future myself.”

Thanks to magic energy, that was no longer necessary.

So he would personally erase the stain that would remain in the Narukami family’s history.

“…Ah, right. It would be better to show you the test subjects I created while experimenting with magic energy.”

Gaien stopped as if remembering something and flicked his finger.

At that moment, something flew from the collapsing manor.

Looking at what had been driven into the ground, Rai muttered blankly.

“…A coffin?”

“Right, this is a coffin. And it’s.”

Thud.

The coffin lid fell to the ground.

What appeared from beyond it was an already dead corpse.

And it was.

“A coffin containing my older brother, revived thanks to the necromancy used by a Macheongoe executive who gave me magic energy.”

With joints throughout his body twisted.

It was a coffin containing Rai and Hikari’s parents, who could only let out death throes.

“I’ll make you two just like these two. A very beautiful family will be completed.”

Snap.

Gaien’s hand flicked.

A single spark that flowed from there gradually grew in size as it approached Hikari and Rai.

They would die.

Without leaving even a trace.

They would burn away in that filthy flame and disappear.

‘No.’

I can die.

But not Hikari.

So as an older brother.

As the family head.

“I’ll protect them!”

It’s time to fulfill his role.

Shing.

From the scabbard at his waist, the beloved sword Raiden slowly reveals itself.

Gritting his teeth, Rai drew his sword and shouted.

“I am the head of the Narukami family, Narukami Rai!”

Crackle—!

As the sword reveals itself from the scabbard, an unknown power violently erupts from the blade.

Lightning that shatters the ground and explodes.

“Owner of the beloved sword Raiden!”

Similar to mana, but different from mana.

Mana with properties similar to the black mist spread through the air, yet like lightning.

Using the ‘lightning rod’ to absorb all of this, Rai immediately released the absorbed lightning.

Thus, clothing made of lightning forms across his entire body.

[Lightning – Electric Sacrifice]

Armor made of lightning, similar to Gaien’s but different.

He won’t act spoiled anymore.

Even now, he’ll fulfill his role as the family head.

With that determination, Rai swung his sword downward.

As a result.

“…!?”

The approaching flames of magi were severed and evaporated.

Gaien saw the sparks disappear without leaving a trace and shouted roughly.

“How did trash that defiles noble blood manage to erase the power of an S-Rank Hunter, power enhanced by magi at that!”

This can’t be possible.

Eyes wide with shock, he glared at Rai who suddenly collapsed to the ground, unable to withstand the power surging through his body.

Right.

It’s just a momentary burst of strength before death.

So he just needs to dispose of the trash as planned.

Gaien raised his hand once more to deal with Rai and Hikari.

At that moment.

“Thought I was gonna die, you bastard.”

From within the pillar of black flames.

A man with a blackened body walked out step by step.
