My Instant Death Ability is So Overpowered, No One in This Other World Stands a Chance Against Me! Volume 13 Chapter 6

CHAPTER 6

This World Was on the Verge of Ruin, and I Can Say With Confidence it Was Restarted.

The Ruins Field.

A place where uncountable dilapidated buildings were lined up, with cracked, difficult to walk on pavement and rubble being the only thing in sight. There were collapsed buildings everywhere, making it difficult to see, a big problem in a place where one must be careful about sudden attacks.

Carol and Ryouko move from shadow to shadow, but Hanakawa walks boldly down the middle of the road.

In short, Hanakawa is the decoy.

Enemies often attack from the shadows of the buildings, so the strategy is to watch for attacks on Hanakawa and search for the enemy's position.

From far away, Hanakawa looks as if he is walking carefree, without any signs of being vigilant.

Indeed, someone recognizes Hanakawa as an easy target.

An attack begins from the shadows of one of the buildings.

As Hanakawa walks down the road, he is hit by arrows and magic bullets. But Hanakawa is unharmed. The defense field of chi that wraps around his body blocked all of the attacks.

"Fufufu... it's no use... it's no use at all! This is just the minimum output to the field, especially when it comes to overflowing defense just from being at ease... do you truly want to continue?"

Hanakawa confidently spoke out.

Carol and Ryouko confirmed the source of the attack and took action.

They quickly restrained the wizard and archer.

And another attacker, a swordsman who jumped out while waving his sword in response to the remote attack, was standing there, looking blankly at the unscathed Hanakawa.

They were not the target monsters for the quest, but adventurers who aimed for the Philosopher's Stones.

Recently, information that the Philosopher's Stones are necessary for the defeat of the last boss had become widespread. And the information of the owner of the Philosopher's Stones was becoming common knowledge among the top players.

"Shit!"

The swordsman, who had been stunned for a short time, turned his back on his opponent.

"Oh? Where are you going? Do you no longer want the Philosopher's Stone?"

"Ngh..."

Hanakawa stood in front of the swordsman who tried to escape.

In Hanakawa's class, Monk, there is a skill that temporarily strengthens physical ability by using accumulated energy. Hanakawa temporarily increased his leg strength and circled around to the front of the enemy.

"Come on! Running away from such a small fry, there's no way you can defeat the last boss!"

The swordsman swung down with great momentum.

However, the sword slipped past Hanakawa.

"Ngh!"

"Is it an afterimage?"

The skill of the monk who left behind his stored chi as he moved, was the afterimage fist. By the way, at a low skill level, it was just visual, with little practicality.

"Hanakawa, annoying!"

As if she was getting tired of the continuous solo performance by Hanakawa, Carol attacked the swordsman from behind and knocked him out.

"He's totally upping the ante, I think it would be better to take care of him now while we have the chance."

Ryouko, who was standing beside Carol, also looked dumbfounded.

At first, the monk class was not very useful, but as expected of an advanced class, as the level increased, he dramatically grew his strength.

"Yeah. It's our responsibility, we have to take care of him, since we helped his growth."

Carol, Ryouko, and Hanakawa. These three people were working together on a quest.

In the initial stage, only Carol and Ryouko were fighting, but Hanakawa had improved his level on his own, and now it was like this. Currently, Carol alone could defeat him, but if his level keeps rising, it might eventually become a strength that can't be handled.

"What? Isn't this the part where you are pleased by my growth? Why are you complaining even though I've become useful?"

"Because, annoying!"

"Honestly, you're unbearable to look at."

"Well... but-Is it not natural to expect a reversal from this situation? It's a common story that when Carol and her friends are in a pinch, someone handsome appears and saves them, causing their affection to suddenly skyrocket and make them fall in love!

"Even if somehow I were saved by Hanakawa, I decide interpret it as being saved by chance due to a natural phenomenon!"

"After all, we have already helped you so much, that even if we were helped by you in the future, it would be considered paying back what was owed."

"Well, our destination is still ahead! Don don, advance!"

'Hi, I'm Mitsuki. I know my name might not be familiar to everyone, but if I say I am the Great Sage, the leader of the Sages, it might be easier for you to understand.'

"Eh? Who's that voice?"

Hanakawa looked around nervously. Carol, who was about to leave, also looked around but couldn't determine who the speaker was.

'This communication is for everyone in the world except for one person. I'm going to exlain what's happening to everyone now. It might be hard to believe, but that's okay. This is the truth, so you'll definitely be able to believe it.'

"This is... a communication that speaks directly to the mind, similar to the one from Sage Van," Ryouko said, and Carol remembered that the invitation to Cavern Quest was also directly conveyed to her mind.

'This world was on the verge of ruin, and I can say with confidence it was restarted. I'm sure you all have memories, even vague ones, of restarting. And some of you might feel like something is different, but can't quite put your finger on it. Actually, people who were killed by a certain person are no longer in this world and cannot be remembered. That's a problem, isn't it? So first of all, I will announce the people who are no longer here. There are many people who are not relevant to each of you, but there is a surprisingly large number of dead, so I hope you'll take a look.'

And then, Carol's mind overflowed with images of people.

One person, two people, ten people, and the number of people increased, and in the blink of an eye they became a crowd of people that couldn't be counted. Eventually, it felt like nothing more than countless points, but even so, each one was still understood to be a person.

'This is the image of the people killed by one person, Yogiri Takatou. Of course, you wouldn't understand just by seeing something like this. So next, I'll pick people who are related to everyone.'

Then, people who she seemed to remember seeing at one point appeared in Carol's mind.

It was the image of classmates she had almost forgotten, who she had been beginning to doubt ever existed.

By being shown these images, memories that had been obscured became clear again.

Raw

Double whammy in one day. I hope I didn't mess this one up!
