My Right Hand Is Too Strong Episode 65

Episode 65. One Thousand and One Nights (Complete)

I stared with dazed eyes at the woman who appeared before me.

Dark teal hair close to black.

Her wavy hair cascaded down to her waist.

A woman wearing long black top and pants that concealed her entire body.

She didn’t spare me a single glance as I stood behind her, only gazing at the Spirit King.

“…”

Crack.

The woman who blocked Darkness’s foot with one hand lightly applied pressure to her grip, completely shattering one of the Spirit King’s legs.

-…!

She had merely clenched her fist.

The woman had completely destroyed one leg of the Spirit King who seemed absolutely unbeatable.

Momentarily shaken by losing a leg in an instant.

Darkness, who instantly regenerated his leg, violently struck down at the ground.

“…!?”

Rumble rumble rumble.

The earth shook violently.

Soon the ground split open, and pitch-black darkness began seeping out from beyond.

‘I’m going to die.’

I could tell just by looking.

The moment that darkness touches me, forget the ‘Blessing of Super Regeneration’ – I’ll be completely annihilated without a trace.

Could I really escape from that darkness?

The moment I thought that.

“…”

Finally, the woman turned her head.

Golden eyes looking at me.

The expressionless woman gently lifted the corners of her mouth the moment she saw me.

“…Ugh?”

A cold sensation wrapped around my body.

The woman who reached out toward me enveloped me in a protective barrier.

Immediately after, darkness exploded from the ground and devoured everything.

“Wait!”

In protecting me, the woman couldn’t protect herself.

So I shouted urgently, but.

“…”

The woman stood proudly in the darkness without losing her radiance.

The woman, surrounded by black flames, emitted pitch-black fire.

Those flames were so intense they even melted the protective barrier surrounding me.

“Ugh…!”

The shattered protective barrier.

Blown backward by the impact, I drove my hand into the ground to barely stop myself and raised my head.

There, the woman who had erased the darkness with just the heat of her flames floated in the sky with a proud bearing.

“Poor Spirit King.”

A voice that seemed calm yet fierce flowed from her slowly opening mouth.

With sunken eyes, the woman raised her hand.

Before her outstretched hand, a mass of flame so hot it refracted the surrounding light had formed.

The heat was so intense that the surrounding plants instantly turned to ash and burned away.

“I’ll grant you the gift of rest from being consumed by dark magic.”

Flick.

The woman’s finger snapped.

At that moment, the massive ball of flame left the woman’s hand.

The mass of flame that left the woman’s hand slowly moved forward, distorting space.

The ball of flame grew larger as it moved forward.

The fireball, initially the size of a small baseball, had grown large enough to incinerate the Spirit King.

Darkness stared intently at the ball of flame slowly shooting toward him.

The speed was slow.

At this rate, he could dodge it.

So the Spirit King moved his body.

“You cannot escape.”

No, he tried to move.

If only some incomprehensible intangible force flowing from the ball of flame hadn’t bound his body.

Though he possessed a body without form, the darkness had solidified as if melted into the ground.

No matter how much he tried to move, he couldn’t.

The Dark Spirit King quickly made a decision and opened his mouth wide.

Whoooosh-!

Deep dark breath poured from Darkness’s mouth.

Pitch-black darkness that could even swallow the sun shot toward the ball of flame.

However.

“…”

The ball of flame easily absorbed the shooting darkness.

The power shot to devour was instead devoured by another power.

The ball of flame, swelling even more after absorbing the darkness, had grown so large it could hardly be called a ball anymore.

A meteorite.

Like a meteorite falling from the sky ascending in reverse.

The ball of flame had grown as massive as the Spirit King himself.

“Rest now.”

Whoooosh-

The ball of flame passed through the Dark Spirit King’s body.

The Dark Spirit King struggled to the end, striking down dark lightning, but couldn’t inflict even the slightest damage on the woman.

Thus, nothing remained in the path where the ball of flame had passed.

Not plants.

Not air.

Not even darkness.

Everything had vanished.

Everything had been burned away.

The woman had easily annihilated the Spirit King who seemed absolutely unbeatable with just a very light technique.

The Spirit King’s head crashed to the ground.

Perhaps because he was a spirit rather than an animal, he was still alive despite only his head remaining.

-…So it comes to this after all.

The voice I had heard in my dream echoed in my head.

Hearing this voice for the first time in reality, I widened my eyes and stared at the Spirit King with only his head remaining.

-It was worth the wait.

Slowly.

The remaining head transformed into the form of a small baby deer.

The Dark Spirit King, struggling to stand on four legs, staggered toward me.

He stopped in front of me as I knelt on the ground.

-I believed that you, possessing incomprehensible power, would liberate me.

“…Me?”

-Darkness. The Underworld. The power beyond that.

At the word ‘Underworld’ that flowed from Darkness’s mouth, I widened my eyes.

Darkness chuckled with amusement at my reaction.

-We spirits are crystallizations of pure mana. Because of that, we can easily perceive others’ mana.

“….”

-Well, because of that, we also have the weakness of being excessively vulnerable to demonic energy, which is corrupted mana.

“So that’s why….”

-That’s right. Because of that, I was far too easily consumed by demonic energy. I was consumed by the impulses of demonic energy without even being able to resist.

Even if he wanted to resist, he couldn’t.

They were crystallizations of mana, composed purely of mana without physical bodies.

-Because of that, I ended up doing terrible things to Omen’s child. But contrary to my expectations, that child regained consciousness within the dream.

“That was me, you’re saying?”

-That’s right. Because you awakened Omen’s child, I was also able to temporarily regain my sanity.

“So that’s why you said you’d wait in the dream.”

Darkness nodded as if that was the correct answer.

-Not only that, but because you were the first to destroy my core that had been tainted by demonic energy, cracks could form in my mind that was dominated by demonic energy.

“What if I hadn’t done that?”

-I would have been annihilated immediately without even having time to be doing this now.

The dark flame that had been inside Darkness’s body.

That must have been the spirit’s core.

So the action of smashing it while my body was melting wasn’t entirely meaningless.

“Then are you okay now from the influence of demonic energy?”

-As if that could be.

The Dark Spirit King laughed weakly and dropped his head.

-I haven’t completely escaped the influence of demonic energy. I’ve only temporarily regained my reason because the massive amount of demonic energy that was consuming my body has been annihilated.

“That means….”

-I’ll soon lose my reason again and go berserk.

I bit my lips hard.

The Spirit King spoke to me in a sunken voice.

-Kill me.

“….”

-With your hands, end me while I’m still myself.

Having said that much, he glanced back.

There was Elpinire, who had regained consciousness and fainted while protecting Jini.

And there was Omen, holding onto Elpinire and fleeing as far away as possible.

-Omen.

-…!

Stop.

Omen’s fleeing body stiffened in an instant.

Soon he turned his head with creaking sounds.

-My King…?

-I’ve done truly terrible things. I’m sorry.

After bowing his head slightly toward Omen in apology, he soon spoke to Omen.

-All the authority of the Spirit King shall be transferred to you, Omen.

-My King! I’m not ready yet!

-I’m sorry for being such a terrible king.

A black crown appeared above Omen’s head.

Afterward, the crown melted and was absorbed into Omen’s body.

Having squeezed out all his remaining power, his size diminished further as he looked back at me again.

He closed his eyes gently as if he had nothing more to say.

“….”

Grind.

Clenching my teeth hard, I slowly clenched my fist.

No strength left to use ‘Rampage’.

No energy left to use ‘Myriad Transformations’.

Nothing remained.

Even so, I squeezed out all the strength remaining in my body and put it into my fist.

-If that child awakens, could you convey my apology?

“…I will.”

-Thank you. Outsider.

Bubble.

Demonic energy began writhing from Darkness’s body after he said that much.

He could no longer say anything more, writhing in pain from the surging agony of demonic energy.

There were many things I wanted to ask, but I couldn’t ask them.

Taking a deep breath, I spoke to the Spirit King who had his eyes closed.

“Farewell.”

Whoosh-!

My fist cut through the darkness.

It shattered the only remaining core.

Thus, the Dark Spirit King consumed by demonic energy returned to quiet darkness.

“….”

The forest where the Dark Spirit King had disappeared.

Within it, I quietly turned my head to the side.

There stood a woman who had been maintaining silence and watching me from before.

“Who are you?”

“….”

“Who are you to suddenly appear?”

No answer came back.

She just quietly watched me.

One second felt like one minute.

One minute felt like one hour.

After a long silence, she opened her mouth with a pleasant, gentle voice.

“My name is Miri.”

Smile.

The woman who called herself ‘Miri’ gave me a gentle smile.

“I am Miri, the faithful servant of the Black Dragon.”

The woman, Miri, who bowed her head in greeting toward me.

She moved her pink lips as if to say something, but soon mist began covering her rapidly from her toes.

“Oh my. The permitted time is up. Then, looking forward to the day we meet again.”

She muttered with apparent regret while looking at the mist rapidly covering her body.

Finally smiling at me with narrowed eyes, she became completely covered by the mist.

Soon when the mist cleared, no one was standing there anymore.

I stared blankly at the spot where Miri had disappeared.

Then.

“Squeak….”

Wriggle wriggle.

Something began climbing up my leg from the ground with a familiar crying sound.

Finally coming to my senses, I reached down to the ground.

“Cheo-ri.”

“Squeak.”

“Did you finally wake up?”

“Squeak squeak.”

After I made it possible to see spirits, Cheo-ri, who had fallen into a deep sleep and wouldn’t wake up, finally arose.

I gently scratched the forehead of the little one who had its chin resting on my knee with eyes closed, then struggled to get up and looked up at the sky.

[You have successfully stopped the Dark Spirit King Darkness.]

[You have successfully cleared the Tower of Illusion.]

[Would you like to save your record?]

[※If you do not save, the record will be reset.]

A system message similar to the Tower of Echoes appears.

I nodded and spoke, just as I had done with the Tower of Echoes.

“Save it.”

Just as my answer was identical to that time.

The system also gave the same response as the Tower of Echoes.

[There is already a record saved in the Tower of Illusion.]

[Saving is not possible.]

Of course that would be the case.

I calmly looked up at the system while holding Cheo-ri in my hand.

[In the previously saved record, the Dark Spirit King becomes completely consumed by demonic energy.]

[Afterwards, all dark spirits become consumed by demonic energy and are reborn as demonic spirits.]

[Only one person could control such demonic spirits.]

[The spirit master who commanded demonic spirits was called a witch.]

[The witch flutters her red hair and destroys everything that blocks her path with empty, hollow eyes like a puppet.]

[Afterwards, the witch turns not only the dark spirits, but all other spirits into demonic spirits, plunging the world into chaos.]

[That witch’s name is Jini]

[A witch and one of the calamities of destruction who could never escape slavery her entire life.]

[This is the existing record.]

[A completely different record from the current one.]

So in the existing record, the Dark Spirit King couldn’t escape from the demonic energy.

Because Jini couldn’t wake up from her dream, Darkness successfully made Jini into a puppet.

I clenched my fist so tightly that it turned white.

If I hadn’t been there, Jini would have.

Darkness would have.

They all would have faced the future written there.

So, once again, I had only one choice to make.

“There’s obviously a way to overwrite it, right.”

[There is.]

[You need to receive recognition from the person who played the biggest role in the existing record.]

I’m glad that at least this much hasn’t changed.

I stared at the system that newly appeared before my eyes with sunken eyes.

[Final Floor]

[Receive Recognition from the Mysterious Soul]

[Would you like to challenge the final floor?]

[Yes / No]

[※Upon failure, the existing record of the Tower of Illusion will be reset.]

[※Upon entering the final floor, all conditions including physical and mental state will be restored to normal.]

Huff, whew.

I exhaled calmly, placed Cheo-ri on my shoulder, and looked to the side.

Omen, who couldn’t regain consciousness due to the aftermath of receiving the Spirit King’s power.

And Jini, who was sleeping with her eyes closed in the arms of the unconscious Elpinire.

I took in each of their faces one by one, then nodded.

“I accept.”

A single word that flowed from my mouth.

The moment that word echoed through the forest, the world stopped.

“…”

Someone whose entire body was stained with black mist began approaching me.
