Pick Me Up!

Chapter 144: Turmoil (1) (2)

As I wiped my sword blade with a rag, it quickly turned into a useless cloth. I threw it away.

She needs healing.

I approached Eloka, who was leaning against the wall.

I took out the last potion I had. I uncapped it and brought it to Elokas lips.

Drink.

Im fine.

I forced Elokas mouth open and poured the potion in.

More than half of the potion overflowed, spilling onto the collar of her clothes.

I lifted the hem of Elokas clothes and rummaged through her pockets.

There was a stamina potion. I uncapped it and poured it into her mouth. This too spilled over.

What a waste.

I dont regret it. I chose to go with you. contemporary romance

Is that so.

I slumped to the ground.

Was I helpful?

Thank you.

Half of the corpses were charred nicely.

I had asked for simple magic, but high-powered spells were cast several times instead.

Thats a relief.

Eloka smiled weakly.

Her splendid dress was soaked in blood.

Theres a lot I want to say but somehow, I cant find the words.

Any last words?

Elokas eyes dimmed.

Last words?

Speak. Ill remember them.

Elokas voice faded away.

Tears welled up. Blood leaked from her blue-stiffened lips.

If its hard, stay quiet.

I continued speaking.

Im sorry for always scolding you.

Idiot.

[Eloka() has returned to the bosom of the goddess. Her fighting spirit will be remembered forever.]

I closed Elokas eyes.

Her body which was leaning against the wall, sank.

Idiot.

I admit it, I am an idiot.

I underestimated this world.

I had never failed before, and every attempt led to success.

Because I knew everything. I thought it would be okay to stray a little.

Im an idiot.

It wasnt Elokas fault.

It was mine.

For choosing Eloka instead of Katiio.

For letting the water dragon breathe fire. For the ship catching fire.

For everything leading up to this situation.

I staggered to my feet.

It wasnt over yet.

The door to the next corridor was open.

I dragged my feet forward.

Should I use the weapon summoning?

Impossible.

To summon a weapon during a mission requires three chances, but Ive already used one, making summoning impossible.

I had to solve the current situation on my own.

Several chances to turn things around flashed before my eyes.

I erased that sight. Looking back now would mean Eloka died for nothing.

A purple light flickered in front of me.

Anytng was waving a light stick.

Of course. Thats all you can do now.

Boom!

The ceiling shook once more.

I moved through the corridor. Same structure as before. No difference.

Except that someone next to me was gone.

Did she call it breaking the limit?

The situation when I acquired Frenzy.

So, this is what its come to.

Just as Jenna said.

That sensation.

When I thought everything would be fine no matter what happened.

When I had no thoughts other than eradicating the enemy in front of me.

A cold fire was burning in my heart.

[Skill Awakening!]

[Han()s Frenzy has been upgraded by two levels! Lv.10 reached!]

[Han()s Frenzy has reached the maximum level.]

If the conditions match, I must make use of it.

[Skill Awakening!]

[Han()s Composure has been upgraded by three levels! Lv.10 reached!]

[Han()s Composure has reached the maximum level.]

I moved forward. Once again, the space expanded.

Boringly lacking in personality. The same type of holes.

Grr, grrr, grrrr

[Corrupted Merman Lv.41] X 5

Mermen appeared from behind a pillar.

Their eyes flashed as they screamed.

The exit closed again, and I recalled the appearance of the temple I saw from outside the water.

There are more few holes.

Then, its still too early for Frenzy

No.

It doesnt matter.

I decided not to make such calculations.

Whatever lies ahead, however many enemies remain.

Screaaa!

There was no hesitation.

[Han() has entered a Frenzy state!]

A cold fire spread throughout my body.

I gripped my sword tightly, spinning the blade.

Swoosh!

Three mermen were sliced up at once.

The blade, not losing its strength after cutting through flesh, sliced the entire pillar in front of me.

Next.

[Corrupted Mermen Lv.42] X 5

Crash!

My blade plunged from above.

The mermen tried to block it with its weapon, but it turned into crushed meat as if hit by a hummer.

[Corrupted Mermen Lv.42] X 13

The cold fire that was coursing through me began to expand its territory.

From under the skin to the muscles. From the muscles to the blood vessels. Fiercely raging throughout my body.

[Han()s Frenzy has met the evolution conditions!]

This is not enough.

If it evolves like this, it will just become a simple higher-level skill.

Give me more.

Its not enough.

[Han()s Composure has met the evolution conditions!]

Like fruits thrown into a blender, bits of their flesh scattered everywhere.

My body moved beyond its physical limit. Every bone in me screamed with pain, but I didnt care.

Still not enough.

After all, Im alone.

If I dont take this kind of gamble.

Squeal, squeeeek!

Mermen corpses and pillars were sliced and mixed together.

Whether they wield weapons, hide behind pillars, or flee.

One strike per enemy was all that it took.

Click.

Bifrost reacted.

The blade extended. Larger and wider. Heavier and more powerful.

The weight doesnt matter. The heavier, the better. It allows me to put more strength into it.

Boom!

Just by setting it down, the sword stuck into the ground.

Hundreds of kilograms. Impossible to lift.

Then.

My muscles twitched.

The structure of my skeleton distorted.

My body began to transform.

[Master, Han()s soul is in turmoil!]

Finally.

I smiled bitterly.
