Chapter 160: chapter 160- Absolute Defense
Taufik kept flying slowly toward the Ben Nevis peak and still didn't realize the "Danger" That came to him.
"This is how apocalypse is supposed to look like?...
Said Taufik as he looked below; destruction was visible everywhere, and plants died due to being exposed to the thick Corrupted Mana for a long time.
... Hmm~ Maybe it's more scary than thi-"
Taufik, who was talking to himself, stopped Immediately because of the sudden appearance of a giant hand formed purely from wind, which grabbed him.
"... Eh?"
He Didn't even have time to fully understand the situation he was in right now, as the big hand immediately threw Taufik to the ground with force.
*Woosh!!*
Taufik shot down very fast and hit the ground very hard.
*Bang!!*
# A/N- "he was like woosh, swoosh, and then Kaboom!!"
A crater was created in the place where Taufik fell.
~HaHaHaHaHa~
Then, After Taufik fell, the sound of laughter echoed everywhere; it was the sound of a woman laughing shrilly.
"*Ughh* what the hell... "
Said Taufik as he ascended from the crater.
~What Bug Like you doing here~
Said the Voice again.
"..."
~why? Are you too scared~
"By any chance are you Slyph?"
~Huh?... WHO ARE YOU? HOW CAN YOU KNOW THAT NAME?~
Said that Voice, sounding angry mixed with surprise.
"I'm your dad, why? Are you too scared to come out? Come out right now and great your Dad!"
Said Taufik while putting on a cocky grin.
~...Y-YOU I WILL KILL YOU!!~
Said That voice, and the next second, the Strom was getting bigger and bigger, Lightning struck like crazy, and the wind blew so hard that the trees around Taufik were uprooted.
"Haa... Child play... No wonder, as you were the youngest of the four ancient spirits. Are you in your rebellious phase or something?"
Said Taufik with the same grin as before.
There are no answers from Slyph to Taufik's taunt this time, but all of the trees uprooted and carried by the hurricane are thrown toward Taufik simultaneously.
*Sigh*
Taufik let out a sigh and then took his Katana out.
'SwordMagic Technique: Dark form- Absolut Defense!'
Said Taufik as he stabbed his katana into the ground.
And then, from Taufik Katana, a dark shadow was expanded at a fast the dark shadow formed a pentagon-shaped space with Taufik in the middle.
At this state, no attack can reach Taufik, whether it be by magic or physically, truly fitting the name "Absolut Defense"
However, this technique has a drawback, namely that the user cannot move, or in Taufik's current state, his Katana cannot be pulled out of the ground because if so, this technique will be immediately canceled.
*Woosh!!*
All of the trees that come toward Taufik immediately disappear toward the void when they touch the pentagon-shaped space.
~ W-what Is That?~
Ask Slyph in confusion. She tried to attack again using the same attack as before, but her attack ended in the same way as before; even her wind Attack could do nothing toward Taufik's technique.
"ARE YOU DONE? ARE YOU EVEN TRYING? IT'S GETTING BORING, YOU KNOW?"
Shout Taufik from inside the pentagon-shaped space.
~Y-you... ~
Slyph, who can't bear Taufik Taunt anymore, finally shows her body, and Taufik, who sees this, lets out a satisfied grin.
"I will be serious from now on, you better prepare yourself"
Said Slyph and then got ready to use her next attack.
Slyph raised her two hands, and then a green ball of energy made by a pure wind appeared, between her two hands.
# A/N- "Like Rasengan but Green"
The ball of energy was getting bigger and bigger, and the force behind it was also getting stronger as the ball of energy got bigger.
The ball of energy gets bigger and only stops when it is as big as a three-story building.
"Now fell my wrath... Breath of Destruction!!"
*woosh!!*
The ball of energy descends at a high speed toward Taufik. Not only that but on the way of the ball's descent toward Taufik, it absorbs the wind around it, which only makes it bigger than before.
*BOOMM!!!*
That huge ball of energy hit its target and made a huge sound of explosion; even the Impact created by that explosion resulted in a fairly large earthquake and shock waves that could be heard hundreds of kilometers away.
"Hahahaha~ feel it, that's what you get if you play around with me, hahahaha~"
Sylph laughed maniacally after seeing what her attack had caused.
She's confident that her attack will probably cause some damage to Taufik, but the outcome later will really disappoint her.
The dust created by the attack quickly dissipated as it was blown away by the storm. The destruction caused by the attack was indeed enormous, as seen from the area affected by the attack being flattened.
But amid the destroyed area, something that is certainly not justice still stands strong. Which made Sylph's laughter stop Immediately.
"... Huh?"
Sylph froze seeing this, and a moment later, Sylph's anger peaked. To the point that something that shouldn't exist becomes existent, such as veins that an elemental creature like Slyph should not have appeared because of anger.
"AHHH!!! ENOUGH!! DON'T HIDE LIKE A SCARED TURTLE, COME OUT IMMEDIATELY!!!"
Slyph shouted in anger.
"..."
But there are no answers from Taufik which only makes Slyph angrier.
"AAHHHH!!"
Shouted Slyph in frustration, and then created a Thousand blades of wind as big as ten meters long and two meters wide.
"... BLADES OF ANNIHILATION!!!"
*Swoosh!!*
and then, thousands of swords fell simultaneously towards Taufik. But like a stone thrown into a bottomless lake, so too did Slyph's attack; her blade of wind seemed to be absorbed by Taufik's technique and did not cause any significant impact.
"..."
Looking at this, Slyph didn't know how to react; she only floated there motionlessly; she was too angry to the point she didn't know how to vent it or where she should vent it.
------------------
- Inside of the Pentagon-shaped space.
"System, are you not done yet?"
Ask Taufik the System; Taufik asks the system to analyze Slyph because of her strange state right now; this amount of dense Corrupted Mana Shows that Sylph's current state is the same as The Ancient Earth Spirit and Undine's previous state, namely under the influence of Corrupted Mana which makes them unable to think straight.
But Sylph's current condition does not show any of those symptoms at all, she can even speak clearly and think normally, which Taufik thinks is strange.
[DING]
[Analysis is Complete]
[From my Analysis, Slyph's current Condition was Indeed under the Influence of The Corrupted Mana, Master, But different from her Brothers and Sister who tried to Rasist the Corrupted Mana, Slyph chose to accept it, which brought her to her current condition, we can call it Semi-Demonized]
"Semi-Demonized? Something like that can happen?"
[It's Possible Master, And Because Slyph was not a human, the chance of Something like this happening is Increasing]
Said the System and Taufik nodded his head in understanding, but something the system said caught Taufik's interest.
"... So are you saying Humans can Also achieve this Semi-Demonized State?"
[The Chance is Not Zero Persen, Master, so it's Possible]
"... I see"
Said Taufik who Remember something he found out after reading Brimour memories before he killed him.
It's a Memories about Brimour who meets up with some magician organization which wears a black robe that covers all of their body and their face covered with a mask with a demon face-shape.
"... Semi-Demonized, huh? Quite Interesting"
Taufik said and then diverted his attention toward Slyph Outside who kept attacking him Nonstop.
"Sooo~ what we should do with her? If she accepts the Corrupted Mana as her own, Then can we still force that Corrupted Mana out from her like before?... Ahh~ It's Getting Annoying, Should I just kill her? No, If I Do That, my agreement with The Ancient Earth Spirit will be void; what should I do?"
[Why don't beat her first and then think about the solutions later, Master, we also can't stay passive like this forever]
"Heh~ This the first time I heard you say something that didn't sound like what a System should say, it's a good Improvement...but you're right, we can't stay Passive like this forever, are we?"
Said Taufik and then immediately pulled his Katana out of the ground, which caused his Absolute Defense Technique to be instantly nullified.
"Hahahaha~ You Finally come out from your Shell. Are you running out of Mana, Huh? Now face your dead!!"
Slyph said as she Saw Taufik nullify his Technique.
"Is it the way you talk to your dad? looks like I should punish you, you bad little girl"
"Dad? My Mother Never had a Husband, and even if she had one it was not someone like you, her Husband should be the strongest in the entire world"
Said Slyph Mockingly, and Taufik, who heard that, put a smile on his face as he looked up at Slyph.
"... Then she will have one now... Because I was the strongest In the world right now"
Taufik said with confidence that could be felt in every word he said.
"...I'm The Strongest"
....
