Crossover World (13)

I tanked the energy beam with my shield and destroyed the incoming ice shards with a skillful swipe of my sword.

I got behind him using hirenkyaku, put my left hand in the shape of a gun, and aimed at his right kneecap. I pretended to shoot and a big gap appeared in his right knee. And because I injected some reiatsu into the shot this time, he couldn't regenerate it like before.

"ARGH!!! OH FUCK!" Helyas was obviously new to pain and had left his guard open as he writhed in agony.

"Enough, I can't believe I'm being forced to use all my power against someone like you. After I kill you, I'll execute all the guards who came here to help. No one must see what I've been reduced to." Helyas gritted his teeth in anger and pain. He raised his sword to the sky and began concentrating magical energy on it.

'On the one hand, he is already in a difficult situation because Deathdealing is torturing him. Why don't we make it more painful?' I thought and aimed with my left hand, this time at hand holding the sword. Seconds later, a huge hole appeared in the palm holding the sword. Reflexively he dropped the sword to the ground.

Because he did this, the mana that he had been trying to gather for a move earlier was broken and the mana was scattered around.

"Why can't I make any move I want against you!?! What kind of person are you?! Are you even human?" Helyas was slowly falling into eternal despair. Nothing he did seemed to accomplish anything.

"I am under no obligation to answer any of these questions. And I don't think there is any need for more idle talk." After saying that, I approached him with confident steps and with a quick blow I severed his left arm.

'Even if I use Balance and get out of here, he'll get the punishment he deserves, but I want to do it with my own hands. And I feel like someone's watching me.' I looked around a bit and saw a raven on the branch of a tree. But it looked too intelligent for a raven.

Immediately afterward, the raven's body could not withstand my spiritual pressure and explode.

"Apparently your other friends were watching the current situation. This must have sent a message to them that they would be next." I said and grabbed Helyas by the hair and lifted him into the air.

Surprisingly, he had not lost all hope. There was still an intense sense of revenge in his eyes. And suddenly,

"Makahadoma!"

After Helyas shouted this word, something strange started to happen.

The wind that had been blowing fiercely was now still. The flocks of birds that flew overhead when we were fighting were suspended in the air. The trees, whose branches and leaves were swaying, stood still. The strangest thing was that I could not perform any physical action. I could only think.

Helyas released my grip with his one remaining arm and hand. He stepped away from me and the old arrogant, disdainful look was back on his face. He looked at me with a maniacal smile and spoke.

"Hahahaha, you never would have guessed something like this would happen, right? Ah, why am I talking to you? You can't even hear me, HAHAHAHAHAHA" While he was laughing outwardly, I was grinning at him mentally because I could easily predict what was about to happen.
