~Written POV~
"Haha! Go, Mulisu! Entertain me! Is this just your ability? In these few years, it seems, only I have gotten stronger. You guys have no change."
"really?"
I took off my robe and threw it towards Ukin. In some places, my robe was metal-mounted so it was easier for me to throw it. And, since the robe was made of kevlar, he could not cut it easily. The robe was stuck in his sword.
Now, I only wear shorts on igni clothes.
"We're getting out of here!"
Some centipedes came through the window, breaking the glass. While two centipedes wrapped around Illuvia and Nerva, I climbed one centipede.
"DADDOR."
Sorry, Illuvia. I know your shoulder hurts, but I don't have time to treat you gently.
The centipedes wrapped around the two of them had no sharp parts, only blunt parts. While we were away, some centipedes headed towards Ukin.
"Basic fool!"
Ukin raised his right hand, launching several swords that pierced through the metal centipedes, plunging them on the floor and ceiling.
"How many times do you want to try, these centipedes won't be able to stop me."
"But the robe can."
"Huh?"
I took a button from my pocket and pressed it.
Blarr.
I put down some grenades with the force of the explosion that I reduced. I don't want to destroy this hospital. Another reason was, even if I used a grenade with a normal explosion, the explosion would not be enough to kill Ukin.
And, my guess is right. A figure appeared from within the smoke. His robe and mask were already destroyed, showing a figure with cargo pants and a pilot jacket. Finally, I haven't seen that face in a long time. A wavy blonde with razor-sharp blue eyes. Despite just receiving an explosion, the smile did not disappear from his face.
"Haha. I haven't felt this sensation for a long time! In this city, in this country, it is indeed only you and Lugalgin who are capable of giving this sensation to me!"
When I heard Lugalgin's name, Nerva and Illuvia immediately threw a glance at me. Earlier, we were chatting outside, so I'm sure they didn't hear our conversation. But now, yes, that's it. I'm sorry Lugalgin. I made your identity revealed to these two people.
We went up the floating centipede. However, Ukin continued to chase us. In his clothes and shoes, he must have put metal that could be controlled. Right now, we're moving faster than cars.
I took out two swords from the legs of the centipede I had raised while the serpent sword I put on one of the legs. Several times Ukin reached me and our swords exchanged attacks. As he retreated, several swords and knives shot straight towards me. I was able to fend off the weapon that was pointing at me, but in exchange the sword I used was destroyed along with the sword he launched.
I took another sword and faced Ukin again. If this continues, I will run out of swords. On the other hand, Ukin only needed to use a broken sword or knife to attack me.
For me, it was difficult to be able to hold Ukin while controlling the three centipedes that were carrying us.
However, I always imbued Lacuna's words.
"In normal circumstances, you are indeed weaker than Ukin and not as smart as Lugalgin. But, you are stronger than Lugalgin and smarter than Ukin. So, you don't have to be discouraged."
I don't care if I'm more stupid or stronger than Lugalgin. My target is always Ukin. He could have ruined all my efforts over the years. I won't let Tasha down.
Finally, we entered the highway. I pressed a button near my neck and spoke.
"Ibla, now!"
[Good!]
Dar
The concrete road next to Ukin exploded.
[WHAT? HE CAN AVOID THE ANTI-TANK RIFLES? I DON'T USE LASERS OR ANYTHING!]
Don't scream. My ears hurt hearing your screams.
Ukin came back to me and we exchanged attacks.
"You've studied lead control, haven't you?"
"While I can't stop the bullet or bounce it off, at least I can feel it coming."
"Unfortunately, Ukin has changed."
"If we were still partners, maybe I'd be happy. Unfortunately, now we're not partners."
"That's right!"
Ukin jumped backwards and launched two swords. The two swords I was holding were shattered along with the sword he had launched.
I also took my serpent sword, the last sword. However, a smile still lingered on my face.
Dar Dar Dar
Concrete continuously exploded near Ukin, making its movement obstructed. Not just concrete, a few bullets deliberately pointed at Ukin's sword.
"Haha! You'll never be able to put that bullet in my head!"
"Yes, that's right. Unfortunately, my target is not your head."
"Huh?"
At that moment, Ukin suddenly fell and rolled down the road. Not only Ukin, the sword and the projectile he controlled fell to the ground.
I focused my concentration on centipede control, increasing my speed. And, finally, we were able to separate ourselves from Ukin. As soon as Ukin's figure was no longer visible, I could breathe a sigh of relief and sit on the centipede.
I let all my swords be destroyed by Ukin. Most of the swords were made of copper. When Ukin destroyed it, I made copper stick to the sword he controlled. When we exchanged attacks, I did the same.
As he jumped back, I put some copper where he landed, making copper stick to the sole of his shoe. When enough copper was attached, I immediately raised the temperature of all the copper, making Ukin's weapons and shoe soles all alloy, not metal.
Maybe Ukin could already control Alloy, but the sudden change, especially when he ran like that, made him unable to directly control it. In effect, because he ran too fast, he fell down.
"Agh.." -...."
Klang klang
Damnit. I seem to be happy too soon. Unexpectedly, it seemed, he threw a spear quickly. If the spear could punch or smash metal, what was my chest that was only flesh and bone.
Since my chest had been pierced by a spear, my control had disappeared. The centipede that brought us all scattered in the street.
[WRITE! THE PULISU!]
Ibla, I told you not to scream. This headset stuck to my ear, you know. Without me saying it, it seems that he complies. Slowly, I did not hear her screams anymore.
Ah, I don't know why. I feel suddenly sleepy. I want to sleep.
"HEY! OI! DON'T CLOSE YOUR EYES! HEY!"
Good night
Seriate
