My Right Hand Is Too Strong Episode 142
Episode 142. Zero (Complete)
As expected, ‘Armament’ is difficult.
It’s not even dyeing my entire body.
Arms and legs.
I only dyed those important parts, and merely kicked off the ground and gripped my left hand tightly.
But even with just that, my body is already crying out in pain.
‘Still, the effect is tremendous.’
Perhaps because I’ve essentially replaced my body with mist, the power flowing from my body itself was on a completely different level than before.
And above all.
‘The power I feel from my right hand has also become more intense.’
My right hand, which was already strong, now felt even more powerful than before.
That alone makes ‘Armament’ worth using.
Forcibly pulling up the corners of my mouth that were about to contort in pain, I roughly threw a punch.
[Turbulent Mist – Mad Explosion]
The violent mist dwelling in my now more powerful right hand extends with the momentum to devour everything.
The extending mist caused a massive explosion.
And that explosion swept away all of Zero’s clones that had been blocking my path.
[Synchronization Rate 11.9%]
The swept clones soon couldn’t maintain their form and began bursting apart, scattering dark light.
Dark flashes embroidering the mana-stained sky.
Beyond that, I kicked off the air and leaped in, pulling my fist back once more.
[Synchronization Rate 12.0%]
[Synchronization Rate 12.1%]
[Synchronization Rate 12.2%]
Once, twice.
Each time I threw a punch, the synchronization rate increased.
That meant a significant burden was accumulating on my body.
As proof of this, I could already feel my body creaking like poorly oiled machine parts.
Still, I couldn’t stop.
Now, while Zero’s position was clearly identifiable, was my chance.
[Synchronization Rate 12.5%]
Kuwoong-!
Throwing another rough punch, I gritted my teeth at the sensation of my joints twisting.
I couldn’t deactivate ‘Armament’ just because it hurt.
[Synchronization Rate 12.6%]
Look carefully.
Even in this situation, dark flashes were filling the mana-stained sky.
With just a few punches, more than half the clones had already disappeared.
Above all, in exchange for grinding up my body.
[Synchronization Rate 12.7%]
I was getting stronger in real time.
Unlike my body that creaked and complained of pain, this power that increasingly filled my body was proof of that.
‘It’s possible.’
Without Uno’s help, I would have already collapsed from countless spells.
And that Uno was now.
“Kheup… haah…”
Already reaching his limit, coughing up blood from his mouth while still using magic.
All to help me.
To repay such an Uno.
There was no opportunity other than now.
I gritted my teeth and pulled myself together.
I kicked off the air again and moved forward.
No, I tried to move forward.
“…Ah.”
If only my body would follow my commands anymore.
How long had I been using ‘Armament’ that my body wouldn’t listen to me?
Even the mist that served as my foothold grew faint, and my body tilted to the side.
I quickly manipulated the mist that had seeped into my body to forcibly straighten my collapsing form.
But even that brief gap was a long time for Zero.
In that short moment while I regained my posture.
Zero’s clones were rushing toward me with weapons raised.
Countless spells were surging toward me.
I had to retreat.
Frustratingly, I had no choice but to fall back.
The moment I thought that and leaned my body backward.
“Sorry for being late.”
Peobeobeobeong-
The spells that had been approaching me all exploded in midair at once.
But it wasn’t Uno who had detonated the spells.
An arrow.
A single arrow imbued with the rough power of the earth.
“I was delayed stopping some intruders who came rushing in.”
The arrow traced an oval as it swam through the sky.
At the point where the arrow stopped stood someone more reliable than anyone else, clad entirely in dark armor, looking up at the sky.
“From now on, I’ll join the fight too.”
Kargon spoke in a very calm voice as he strongly pulled back the arrow nocked on his bowstring.
Immediately after, the arrow that left Kargon’s hand lightly pierced through Zero’s chest.
[Orcus – Fury]
The piercing arrow didn’t stop there.
The chest of the Zero behind that one too.
The head of another Zero as well.
Only after skewering five of them did it lose power and crumble to dust.
“So master, don’t worry and move forward.”
“That’s right, master.”
Hwooong- Kwang!
A verdant comet flying from far away swept away all the Zeros who had been wielding weapons at close range and crashed to the ground.
Elpinire, who had crashed leaving deep marks on the ground, lightly wiped the blood from her cheek and gave me a thumbs up.
“We’ve finished what we had to do too, so don’t worry and fight.”
“Elpinire is right.”
Turning my head toward where the voice came from, I looked at Jini approaching while slumped in Noum’s arms.
“I got carried away and used too much power so I’m exhausted… but I’ll help as much as I can.”
Darkness rises from the ground.
A deeper darkness that covers the mana brightly illuminates only one among the many Zeros.
That target was, quite ridiculously.
“So please always move forward, master.”
A small human stained with mana, hiding behind all the clones with his back to the moonlight.
Thus, giant arrows and verdant iron fists cover the sky.
The Dark Spirit King’s chains descending from the darkness of the night sky hinder the movements of the clones.
Without doing anything, just standing still, no attacks come flying toward me.
I let out a hollow laugh at the unexpectedly cozy feeling in what was supposed to be the middle of a battlefield, and muttered quietly.
“This is actually quite touching.”
Being helped in this way, I mean.
Adding that quietly, I exhaled lightly and smiled.
Right.
There’s no reason to retreat.
No reason to grind my body alone in suffering.
Even if it’s not me, I have comrades who will step forward for my sake.
Having released my ‘armament’, I stepped forward through the mist.
[Compatibility Rate 12.8%]
The countless condensed masses of darkness that had been striking down at me were all shattered by Kargon’s arrows that split into countless fragments.
[Compatibility Rate 12.9%]
The clones that rushed forward while evading Kargon’s arrows were all blocked by greenery that burst out from the side.
[Compatibility Rate 13.0%]
A clone that finally broke through Kargon and Elpinire’s interference and approached close raised its sword-wielding hand.
However, the clone’s speed appeared far too slow, tainted by the sticky darkness.
Therefore.
[Compatibility Rate 13.1%]
By Uno’s staff that teleported instantly with pure mana.
The clone’s head was crushed.
I glanced at Uno who had approached from the side.
“Are you okay?”
“I’m fine, not.”
Haa, haa.
Seeing that she couldn’t even say that short phrase properly, it definitely seems like she’s overexerting herself.
But even if I told her to step back, Uno wouldn’t listen to me right now.
So I turned my gaze away from Uno and looked at Zero, who was revealing his presence in the darkness.
“Hey. Why don’t you give up already?”
“…I. Cannot. Give. Up.”
Drip, drip.
His voice came out completely broken.
The power flowing from him was also breaking apart intermittently.
Limit.
Anyone could see that Zero’s body had already reached its limit.
But Zero didn’t yield.
Rather, he widened his eyes.
And was releasing even more power from his body.
“I am… I am…!”
Crack-
Cracks began to form on Zero’s body.
At the same time, explosive magical energy began pouring out from Zero’s body.
“I survived the kill-or-be-killed experiments!”
He doesn’t care about his body’s collapse.
It doesn’t matter if he dies.
A final struggle with death as the price.
The intense magical energy flowing out created violent winds.
Even as my clothes and hair fluttered, I stared at Zero without even blinking.
“With just the thought of wanting to become Zero, I even killed my only younger brother!”
As more cracks formed on Zero’s body, the surrounding clones scattered.
The magical energy of the scattered clones all clung to Zero’s body, making the magical energy flowing from Zero’s body even greater.
“I must be a unique and flawless existence!”
Kwagagagak-!
A violent storm of magical energy erupted.
In the storm that would blow away the entire area, Uno raised her staff and created protective barriers around me, Kargon, Elpinire, and Jini.
“…Right. That’s the kind of person you were.”
With a thoroughly exhausted face.
Uno, clutching her chest and gasping for breath, glared at Zero as she spoke.
“You were always the one who would forcibly interfere and disrupt our experiments when Dos and I were conducting them.”
Uno at that time had no emotions, so it didn’t matter to her.
But Dos always spoke resentfully, thinking that becoming Zero was the path to liberation.
“…Every time, you would always beat me, who showed no reaction, and say that if the experiment had been done on you, Tres, instead of such a failure, it would have succeeded.”
Dos always blew you away whenever that happened.
Uno smiled weakly as if recalling bitter memories and pointed her staff forward.
There stood a giant made of magical energy that had hatched by breaking through the eggshell called the storm.
“You’re also the one who forcibly revived Dos’s corpse, aren’t you?”
Such sophisticated necromancy could only be performed by someone who uses ancient magic.
And the only person who could properly use ancient magic was ‘Zero’.
Understanding this, Uno began roughly releasing mana from her body.
“For Dos… for the villagers, for Uncle Rondel.”
And.
“This is revenge for Airin, Zero.”
She doesn’t include herself in that.
Uno’s emotions toward Zero belong to her time as ‘Test Subject Uno’, not to her time as ‘Uno Airin’.
“Mir.”
“Yeah.”
“I’ll push back the magical energy. So…”
“Got it.”
Nodding heavily, I looked at the core of the giant made of magical energy.
Near the heart area where bright light was still flowing thanks to Jini’s help.
There, Zero, with only his head and upper body remaining, was glaring at us with wide eyes.
‘He’d self-destruct even if left alone.’
But I don’t want that.
Uno doesn’t want that either.
So what we had to do was decided.
[Ancient]
Pure mana gathered intensely.
Enough to distort the air.
Enough to collapse space.
More intense and powerful.
It gathered at the tip of the staff.
Uno, who coughed up a handful of blood from her mouth, released the gathered pure mana to a single point without caring.
[Zero Point]
-!
The concentrated mass of pure mana shot so fast it couldn’t be followed with the eyes, piercing through the magical energy and piercing through Zero.
Uno collapsed, coughing up blackened blood from her mouth.
Leaving Uno behind, I took a step forward.
‘A little faster.’
Zero had already collapsed his own body.
Though he was pierced by Uno’s magic, that wouldn’t be a fatal wound.
The time remaining until regeneration was only about 1 second.
With an ordinary leap.
I can’t reach it with ‘Musangbi’ or ‘Hwalmoo’ alone.
[Compatibility Rate 13.2%]
What should I do?
How can I cover this distance faster?
It’s silent.
It feels as if time has stopped.
In that stillness, gritting my teeth, instead of kicking off the ground, I compressed the mist erupting from my back to its limit.
[Thousand Transformations]
I’ve never created something this delicate before.
‘Thousand Transformations’ is still difficult to control.
But I have to do it.
I must do it.
Red blood flows down from under my nose.
My vision suddenly contracts, and my ears become muffled.
My mouth, clenched too tightly, can’t endure it and bleeds, but I don’t care.
I simply molded the mist behind my back into some form.
[Compatibility Rate 13.3%]
Mist erupts wildly from behind my back.
The mist shooting out in dozens, hundreds of streams didn’t have a precise form.
It was an eruption of black mist so hazy and unorganized that you couldn’t tell where it ended.
But in the shadow cast under the moonlight, that mist.
[Black Smoke Wings]
Looked like a pair of wings.
‘Form doesn’t matter.’
Whether it’s the shape I wanted or not.
That doesn’t matter.
Right now, it’s enough if it can just achieve the purpose I want.
Not even properly formed.
So much so that even the boundary lines aren’t clearly visible.
With these bizarre wings made of literal black mist attached to my back, I leaned my body forward.
[Compatibility Rate 13.4%]
Though it has the form of wings.
No, maybe it’s not even wings to begin with?
Anyway, the ‘Black Smoke Wings’ weren’t meant for flying through the sky.
They were more like massive output thrusters of mist.
[Compatibility Rate 13.5%]
Highly concentrated mist erupting from the wing tips pushes against the air.
My body became a single black arrow shot forward.
[Compatibility Rate 13.6%]
My vision distorts.
Wind pressure that feels like it will burst my eardrums rushes in.
The afterimage of mist trailing behind like the tail of a black comet.
Having become a single dark flash, I entered between the giant’s slowly closing magical energy.
[Compatibility Rate 13.7%]
Resisting the wind pressure, I struggled to pull my arm back.
[Compatibility Rate 13.8%]
The ‘Black Smoke Wings’ behind my back scattered in an instant and coiled around my right hand.
[Compatibility Rate 13.9%]
My body lost its propulsion, but didn’t lose its speed.
[Compatibility Rate 14.0%]
Maintaining that speed, I concentrated all the mist into my right hand.
[Compatibility Rate 14.1%]
[Compatibility Rate 14.2%]
[Compatibility Rate 14.3%]
Very roughly.
“I just want to—”
Toward Zero’s brightly glowing core.
I threw my fist.
