Protagonist Plot Starts (4)
"Well not like I expected you to fall..."
'Wha ---!?!'
Reus's gaze also moved to air where thousands of humanoid figures were slowly landing towards the man with swords with both eyes shining in red light
The man bended both of his legs and suddenly disappeared from the gaze of Reus
Reus's eyes widened to its peak right now, he tried his very best to look at that man and his situation in any way possible
Reus's eyes looked like the eyes of a beast and various nerves popping around his body and next moment his gaze finally met the man
The man was currently on top of air and also on top of the heads of all enemies filled with red evil energy like devils
And with the bodies of humanoid beings, this time all his swords moved all at once slicing off the heads of all those beings
The man landed back to ground with various heads rolling down besides him completely unattached to dead corpses around there
"God damn you... Dead Walkers..."
The man muttered finally revealing the name of existence surrounding him, these beings had absolutely no soul in them
They were purely just the corpses of dead beings being controlled directly by the devils themselves
So it was clear that the strength inside them was even stronger than what seemed grin outside not to mention the advantages of body that feels no pain or fear
All the dead walkers once again rushed at the man with wide open weapons and sharp eyes radiating with evil
'They are literally quite scary...'
Reus felt shivers all over his body but the man in front him seemed to be getting more and more angry as the time passes
And once again Reus managed to see the same sword technique that almost took his life there or actually did take his life there
But now what Reus was watching was the same Sword technique at its full potential not just bending the laws of the world but completely crushing them into endless pieces
All nine swords floating in air and the sword at the hand of that man dashed towards all the enemies all at once
Dozens of corpses trying to approach that wooden house floated in the air next moment with limbs and head detached from the bodies
The man literally turned into an endless death machine bisecting every being trying to approach the place
Thousands kept coming at him each second but thousands also lost their existence just the next second
Reus was in absolute awe at the thing he was watching, it seemed like ten blood red moons had risen in the middle of a war
All belonging to the same person, and after who knows how many days later the war between the man and dead walkers ended with the victory of that man
He thrusted his sword to ground covered in various wounds and blood flowing like a river from all over his body
It was quite illogical for him to be alive in his current situation, there were various arrows thrusted at his chest and other body parts
And even one sword at his guts, the man slowly took out all kinds of weapons thrusted in his body
It was clear from his face that the pain he was feeling was a living hell but with raw will power he managed to overpower the death
...This man looks even more zombie-like than those Dead Walkers
And the surroundings have turned into a living hell with endless and piles of corpses all over the place with dead trees and bushes
"Huff... Huff... Adria... Miru..."
The man somehow dragged himself back to the house but there he noticed dead corpses of his wife and daughter and a dark figure in hood and a sword standing in front of those dead corpses
"N-no..."
The man seeing this felt completely broken and his legs gave off, Reus on the other hand didn't have will left to continue
Reus fell on the ground scared and filled with endless sadness, the one in hood looked back at the man and said
"Loser... You should have just joined us too rather than acting like a family guy here..."
And this time no matter how much Reus tried he could see through anything, the sword of being in hood thrusted right through the chest of that man who just lost his everything here
The man fell to ground and the one in hood took his sword back and returned to his own way
'No? This can't be real! Hey! Hey! Are you still alive!?!"
Reus tried to help that man but his body passed right through the body of that man and no words came through the mouth of his own
'Caugh... Caugh!!!"
A few minutes passed and suddenly the man started coughing blood and woke up again
Reus had no end to his surprise, the man took a glance at his surroundings and somehow dragged himself to the body of his dead family
And grabbed their hands into his own and closed his eyes with a mysterious and warm smile
"Guess I will say the goodbyes first then... I was such a loser, I couldn't even find a lord to serve even after being a knight my whole life...
Couldn't protect my own family while being called the strongest of humanity at a time, couldn't defeat my enemy despite being a warrior praised by millions...
But this time, I won't take my defeat as the ending..."
The man gripped his both hands together tightly and next suddenly a necklace of dragon scales shone brightly
And after a few seconds the man's body turned into dust but the dead corpses of his wife and daughter recovered again
And next moment the eyes of both suddenly started moving and they woke up again
"Papa..."
The girl muttered that and that was as far as Reus could possibly see
'I want to see more! Hey!!!'
Reus consciousness returned to his body and he found himself at top of the grass surrounded by Klaus and his other friends
"Reus!!!"
"Seems like you are okay..."
"Haha... I was so nervous there!"
"Fuu..."
Yumiko immediately hugged Reus with teary eyes, others also seemed to be more relaxed and relieved right now
And finally the notifications from the voice of the world started ringing inside Reus's head again
{Congratulations on clearing the solo dungeon _ The Great Nightmare!}
{You have leveled up!}
{You have leveled up!}
{You are not Tier 8 human existence!}
{All conditions fulfilled!}
{The Unique Skill _ Full Counter had been acquired!}
Reus gripped his head and next moment suddenly he noticed few things below him that were the rewards of clearing dungeon
There was a book with a sword at its cover and one dark sword directly attached to the shadow of Reus
Klaus also noticed the things and his eyes shined in blue light

'Yeah... I don't even want to know how the world even works in front of me...'
Klaus's face was blank as white sheet of paper after seeing those panels and gave up, Klaus went to Reus and touched his head, a lot of holy magic spread out of Klaus's body healing all the remaining injuries Reus had on him,
It was quite the surprise but the hole at Reus's chest had also been mysteriously healed before Reus came here and next Klaus said
"I don't see any more injuries, seems to be fine..."
Everyone present there nodded but suddenly Klaus once again felt his godly instincts and next Klaus's senses spread all over Reus's consciousness
And an extremely light aura of time and soul from Klaus's body escaped to Reus's body
Next moment Klaus received all the memories of what Reus had watched till now in just a flash
'Fucking hell... Marshall?'
The face and personality of that man was instantly recognised by Klaus in mere micro seconds
Klaus silently moved back in deep surprise and once again others started asking Reus about his condition
"Hey! Are you feeling some tingling on your head?"
"What happened there?"
"Why are you so careless Reus!?"
"Sigh..."
Reus just smiled like an idiot and showed he was completely fine with his smile but it didn't seem to have solved his troubles
"I'm fine, for sure... I was just careless back there, I'm alright..."
Reus kept explaining and after a few minutes of explaining suddenly his face turned serious as if he had matured a little more
