Chapter 62: Kill or be killed

“Amazing, bro, you’re amazing! I’m shedding tears from excitement!” (Dorauemon)

I feel like I actually grasped something right now.

In the first place, I wouldn’t have even thought, ‘I might be able to do this,’ or, ‘I have no choice but to do this,’ beforehand if I wasn’t in this situation.

This must be what it really feels like,

“Fuwa fuwa earthquake!” (Velt)

To go past your limit.

“Fuwa fuwa mantle!” (Velt)

Fall into the depths of the ground, deep into the core of the planet!

“No way, this child. Transformation, Giant Foot!” (Cleran)

As if the cracked land had a mind, it dropped Cleran and tried to crush her in between, but Cleran twisted her body violently, escaping from the fissures.

“Transformation, Sky Wing!” (Cleran)

A bird’s wing this time? Growing gigantic wings, she escaped into the sky.

If the land became the enemy trying to attack you, you would obviously escape into the sky.

That’s right, you escaped from me. Right now, you got frightened of my power.

But, unfortunately for you,

“This isn’t sexual harassment, but if you want to get away from me, you have to get naked. Fuwa fuwa withdrawal!” (Velt)

It doesn’t matter where you run to. I’ll pull you over with my power.

“Wha-, my body pulled itself to you of its own accord!” (Cleran)

“Kuhahahaha, unlucky! Remember this, you can’t ignore a prodigy delinquent!” (Velt)

“What is this? This feeling of my body, no, my clothes being pulled!” (Cleran)

“Fuwa fuwa sandstorm!” (Velt)

“Wai-, why!? You continued standing for this long, and even used non-chanting magic, guh, even a sand tornado!” (Cleran)

Ahh, this is making me feel like I’m ‘in’. (TL Note: Maybe something like, in the zone? Prob something like that.)

It’s strange. Like, I feel like I can do anything, and I don’t think I can lose.

Because I gathered all of the sand on the ground in a whirl in the sky, she thinks I fired a sandstorm.

There’s no significance at all to a bird that can’t freely flap its wings!

“Fuwa fuwa meteor!” (Velt)

I gathered rocks made from the fissures and broken land and then dropped it from right above her.

Until you admit defeat, I won’t let you get away.

I knock down the broken land and then drop more rocks from above it. Dropping, smashing and crushing.

However,

“Fufu, Rubber Slime.” (Cleran)

“Kuhahaha, rubberizing, huh. If it results in no damage after doing this much, it would be depressing.” (Velt)

By turning her body into a rubber monster, she absorbed all the impact.

However, it doesn’t seem like I can’t deal with it.

“Fufu, ahahahaha, geez, that surprised me. To think you were hiding this kind of trump card.” (Cleran)

“Kuhahaha, sorry about that~, it’s a trump card coming from me that still hasn’t embraced a woman yet, after all.” (Velt)

“Hahaha, you’re funny, otouto-kun. But you know, there are two things I found out from that.” (Cleran)

“Ah?” (Velt)

Although there was no damage, the toga she was wearing tore, and her body is quite dirty.

She’s showing a smile, but at the very least, she must have taken some mental damage.

“Otouto-kun, it seems you being a master of earth attribute magic……… isn’t true. There’s something that’s fundamentally different. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be able to keep using such large-scale magic without chanting, even if you were on the same level as the Ten Heroes of Light.” (Cleran)

Correct. Rather, my mana has unexpectedly not decreased much.

Well, I’m just floating heavy things after all.

“Also, it has to be a lie that you were hiding that trump card until you became so worn out. Isn’t it just that you became able to do it just then?” (Cleran)

What, so you actually do know.

“Yeah. When humans try to do something, it surprisingly works out somehow.” (Velt)

Well, just because that was exposed, unlike the land, my current heart won’t sway.

Even though there’s no basis for it, confidence is overflowing from deep inside of me.

“That’s right, these kinds of things that doesn’t happen to wild monsters, happen.” (Cleran)

“Hah?” (Velt)

“Wild monsters excel at making maximum use of their own abilities or traits. But as for humans, they sometimes pull out power that surpasses the limit of their own abilities.” (Cleran)

Seeing my current state, Cleran declared that.

“When people with talent awaken, it’s called『Blooming』. But for kids like you that aren’t geniuses or anything, it’s called『Breaking through your shell』when they awaken.” (Cleran)

“Kuhaha, breaking through my shell, huh. Ain’t that nice! Calling delinquents unusual are compliments for them.” (Velt)

“Fufu, it’s up to you on how far you fly away after breaking through it though!” (Cleran)

“Then, maybe to the ends of the earth? Kuhahahahaha!” (Velt)

“Ufufufu, that’s exactly why it’s such a waste. It would feel really wasteful to just eat you.” (Cleran)

“A waste? It’s the opposite. You wouldn’t be let off with just suffering damage to your health by eating me, who’s all pain, no gain, you know?” (Velt)

“The machine dragon is just a secondary thing now! Today’s main dish, is you, otouto-kun! I don’t know what kind of abilities or magic you’re using, but give me your meat!” (Cleran)

“Kuhahahaha, don’t approach me! Fuwa fuwa shock wave!” (Velt)

We clash again.

Rather than a simple fist fight, we’re using each of our abilities freely, and hitting each other with it.

Even though I’m in the middle of this amazing, shocking exchange of techniques, my exhilaration isn’t stopping.

I can do anything, and even in this life-risking situation, I even feel joy.

“Kukuku, ufufufufufu, ufufufufufu! I want it! I want to eat it! I want to eat you, otouto-kun!” (Cleran)

“Haa, haa, haa, you’re such a glutton. If you don’t restrain yourself, men will be put off, you know?” (Velt)

“Women who eat are healthy.” (Cleran)

“Tch, that reminds me, in Asakura Ryuuma’s age, the number of carnivorous women increased since there were too many herbivorous men, but this is going way too far. Just get a full stomach already!” (Velt)

Ahh geez, the terrain of the forest changed.

Even though it was a beautiful forest, there was too much destruction.

The land is ruined and the trees fell, so the habitats of the wildlife living peacefully was completely stolen.

All because of me.

Kuhaha, like I care. I’m not an environmental protector.

I’m not interested in that.

Right now, I just couldn’t care less about anything other than killing this woman!

“Fuwa fuwa flood!” (Velt)

“Wh, what is it this time!” (Cleran)

Nearby, I could properly see a stream flowing.

The flow is slow, but if I gather all that water, how many tonnes of water do you think it would amount to?

“The, the river water is surging, like a flash flood!” (Cleran)

Ahh, I really can do it, huh.

To think it would be possible to freely float liquid.

I float all the water in the river recklessly, gather it, and crush Cleran by using it as walls.

“Tra, transformation, Dolphin Man!” (Cleran)

“Ho~, a fish person, huh. You really can do all sorts of transformations.” (Velt)

Against the pressure and waves of the water, she undoubtedly transforms into a monster that can swim. Even this can’t bring her down.

However,

“But don’t forget about the sediments from the ruined ground. Since like, what do you think would happen if I put that into this large amount of water!” (Velt)

“Eh, wai-, no way!” (Cleran)

The land violently sways again. This isn’t an earthquake.

It’s an artificially caused………

“Fuwa fuwa mudflow! Go see if a fish person can swim through this!” (Velt)

“Thi, this child, who, who is he……… monster………” (Cleran)

Magic to float things. That’s what I stuck to.

I poured all of the capacity I had to learn other magic, into just that.

For five years, ten hours everyday, I poured my everyday life into it.

“You wouldn’t understand, right? For a gourmet that just put her hands on all sorts of other abilities, you wouldn’t understand the feelings of a cook that continued pursuing just one flavor.” (Velt)

Cleran becomes engulfed by the mudflow. No matter what wild creature it is, they’re powerless before the calamities of nature or natural disasters.

I wrapped up her body with sediments, rounded it up into a ball like a dango, and hardened it.

Will I be able to suppress her like this? Or else, will she suffocate?

“Thi, s, transformation, explosion dragon!” (Cleran)

The dango of sediments containing Cleran, suddenly exploded.

“Uo-, this woman, she still had an ability like this!” (Velt)

A dragon that causes explosions. She still had a monster like that, huh.

The land breaks, nature bursts into flames, and caves in.

It feels like I’m seeing the fall of the world.

“Tch, crap……… my stamina, and consciousness……… is almost.” (Velt)

Levitation (floating) magic doesn’t use that much mana. It only uses an extremely small quantity of mana.

However, my current self that’s all in tatters, is seeing the ends of the mana and stamina left.

On the other hand, Cleran is still energetic………

“Fuuu, fuuu, fuuu, I won’t lose, otouto-kun! The predator is me!” (Cleran)

“Damn it, haa, haa, you’re tough.” (Velt)

“I’m standing above all the nourishment from the lives I have eaten until now! If I lose right now and here, it would be an insult to all the lives inside of me! I deeefinitely can’t lose!” (Cleran)

Ahh, she’s making a desperate face. I can feel her bloodlust and spirit.

I, who could only have been eaten at the start, is now seen as an enemy that is competing against who will eat the other by her.

I’m covered in blood, and Cleran is covered in dirt, but we didn’t get drawn away from each other.

However, I’ll teach her one thing.

“It’s not just……… hunt or be hunted or……… eat or be eaten.” (Velt)

“Haa, haa, haa, then, what is it?” (Cleran)

“It’s kill or be killed!” (Velt)

“Y, you’ve said it now.” (Cleran)

“You’re a Hunter, so being the predator or not doesn’t matter. I’m far past your imaginations, assholes!” (Velt)

We’re just having a life abrading fight now.

“I’ll hunt you, eat you, kill you, and I’ll use that as nourishment to become even bigger!” (Velt)

And, this is probably the end.

“You’re right……… it’s exactly as you say, otouto-kun……… but the one that’s going to be killing, is me!” (Cleran)

I will keep getting stronger.

Also, Cleran. From the start to the end, you really were a crazy, dangerous, unwavering person!
