[Ln] Volume 3: Chapter 3.2
The Outburst of Hatred Part 2
Translator : PolterGlast
Nozomu bit his lip as a strong sense of helplessness and burning hatred welled up within him.
(All the times I have been scorned and humiliated, it was all their fault!)
The pain running through his body and the taste of blood in his mouth further fueled his anger.
[Fufufu, what a joke. How ignorant and arrogant of them to say that they were chosen and worthy merely at that level. Don't you think so?]
A five-colored, six-winged dragon. Tiamat spoke to Nozomu's heart in a heavy, seductive voice.
[Let them know. Show them. How ignorant and narrow-minded they are. And how helpless and small they are. Remember. You have the right, no?]
A treacherous dragon. But the voice of the giant dragon gradually seeped into Nozomu's heart.
(I have the right ....... Yes, that's right. That guy, those bastards ......!)
[Now, remove the chains that bind you. You don't have to endure anymore. Don't you agree?]
(Yeah, that's right. I don't have to endure anymore!)
With hands trembling with hatred, he seized the chains that bound him and tore them apart.
Let's destroy all those who have betrayed us!

Ken and the others screamed as they were blown away by the sudden outburst of power.
"Kyaaa!"
"Kuh, Mefi, what just happened!?"
[I-I don't know! What the hell is this!?]
In front of Ken and the others, who could not hide their agitation, Nozomu, who had been lying on the ground, stood up.
Nozomu's appearance made them gasp.
An enormous amount of energy erupted from Nozomu's entire body. A force that could never be contained by a human being swirled around him, rising into the sky like a tornado.
Nozomu's brown eyes turned red and his pupils split vertically, transforming him into an almost inhuman figure.
What made Ken and the others shudder was the five-colored source elements mixed with the vast amount of Qi. The primordial power that no human body should be able to handle, that only the spirits could use, was mixed in with the erupting Qi.
[''I'll fucking kill you.'']
Nozomu and someone's voices. An unfamiliar, yet intensely frightening voice overlapped.
The next moment, the katana in Nozomu's hand was enveloped in five-colored source elements and Qi.
[Mumei] greedily absorbed the force as if following the will of its wielder. It easily accepted Tiamat's elemental power, which ordinary weapons would never be able to absorb, and dyed the katana's blade in an extremely vivid color of jet-black color.
In the next instant, a gigantic blade emerged.
"~, Disperse!"
At the same time as Ken shouted so, the gigantic blade was swung down.
The five-colored blade split the ground, severing the forest behind it and leaving a huge scar on the ground.
[Impossible, it's impossible! How could a human-......]
"Camilla, give me a hand! This guy is dangerous!"
"I know!"
As the flying wooden debris were burned by the five-colored source elements, Camilla readied her staff and quickly finished her chanting.
Her specialty is auxiliary magic. The name of the magic she invoked is [Chimera's Demon Fang].
Camilla's magic power through the magic was poured into Ken, and Ken's physical ability and the strength of his magic sword increased at once. Furthermore, Ken's [Serpentine Sword] acquired a paralyzing effect, along with a poisonous color.
This is a magic that strengthens the body, enhances magic power, and grants magic effects simultaneously, and it is one of the most difficult auxiliary magic that can produce three different effects in a single chant.
"Mefi, give me power!"
[U-un!]
On top of all this, Mefi transferred even more power to Ken.
The source element she poured into Ken's body enveloped his entire body, not only raising the effectiveness of the auxiliary magic applied to him, but also transformed into a powerful and peerless armor that repelled all kinds of attacks.
With not only auxiliary magic but also the power of the spirit added, Ken stepped toward Nozomu, who released an enormous amount of source elements and Qi. His speed was undoubtedly fast enough to reach S rank.
"Fuuuuuuuu!"
The gigantic blade with enormous source elements and Qi poured into it was swung and approached Ken.
(It's too big a swing! You can't control it that well, huh!?)Yôur favorite stories at
Ken ducked and dodged the cleave as he slid in toward Nozomu's feet.
Contrary to the enormous amount of power he has, Nozomu's movements become sloppy.
Ken immediately saw that his opponent was not accustomed to wielding a huge weapon.
Once he could dodge Nozomu's first attack, victory was assured. Ken was convinced of this and quickly raised his sword in a counterattack.
[Elemental Magic Sword ・ Dispersal Dew]
A deadly blade that combines the power of Mefi, the spirit, with his magic sword.
It responded instantly to Ken's thoughts and transformed into all sorts of forms, and the powerful and peerless sword, which could cut through not only the opponent's body but even his soul, attacked Nozomu like a gale.
"I got you-...... wha!?"
However, the magic sword never reached Nozomu's body. In an instant, Nozomu's gigantic blade dispersed, and at the same time, his body slid to the side. Ken's blade, which was unleashed in a slashing motion, was completely missed and cut through empty air.
(A feint ......!?)
While Ken was shocked, Nozomu grabbed Ken's upper arm with his right hand and dove into his opponent's chest. Then, immediately after pressing his left shoulder against Ken's chest, "thud!*, a powerful impact penetrated through Ken's torso with a gut-wrenching sound.
"Gaaaahh―――――!?"
[Mikagura-style・Oscillation]
It is a pure Taijutsu which does not require any Qi, and it utilizes a full body twist to release a penetrating blow.
Although it is a technique designed to be used against people, not demonic beasts, the power of Nozomu's [Oscillation], which has released his ability suppression, is tremendous, and the impact penetrated through Ken's chest, which was supposed to be clad in spirit armor, carving countless wounds in his lungs and internal organs.
"Gu-fu ......"
[Ken!?]
Ken crouched down, nauseated by the rising blood. From above his head, a slash of incomparably more precise than the previous one was unleashed.
Mefi used her power in a panic to create countless water snakes from the ground to restrain Nozomu, but he changed the trajectory of the downward slash to a horizontal cleave and activated [Qi-jutsu・One Billion Severance]. After cleaving the approaching water snakes, he once again dropped his blade in an attempt to reap Ken's life.
At that moment, a girl with fluttering red hair jumped out from the grass beside him.
A vast amount of Qi and a five-colored radiance poured into the blade. It was undoubtedly the power of that dragon.
The feelings of escapism and resentment that had been building up over the past few years have somehow dissipated.
Instead, a dark sense of superiority rose up within him.
The condescending feeling of [Serves you right!] was burning his mind with unparalleled pleasure.
"Lisa!"
Out of the corner of his eye, Ken and Camilla come rushing toward him, their faces pale, but even if they could reach him in time, they could not stop the blow he was about to deliver.
Power of spirits or whatever it is, I'm going to turn them all into dust!
(Are you really okay with that?......)
A slight glimpse of reason peeked out at the edge of his mind, which had turned red with anger.
(Is that what you really want?)
The fragments of rationality repeatedly asked him the same question over and over again. It could be said that this was the result of extreme concentration to the extent that even the sense of time was left behind, but the surging desire for vengeance denied the call of rationality outright.
Of course. I'm going to erase everything, right here, right now.
My pain, my resentment, my past, everything!
(Lisa ...... she didn't even know she was tricked ......)
So what. She doesn't need to know! To hell with it! My pain, my suffering, I'm going to take it out on them here!
Something hot streamed out from his eyelids.
It was a single tear, a drop of sadness hidden at the bottom of his anger.
But his vengeful spirit, running wild, was unaware of this, and he thrust out his blade.
[Mikagura-style・Core Piercing]
This is a highly lethal Qi-jutsu that pierces the opponent with an extremely compressed Qi-blade, causing it to explode and obliterate the opponent from the inside out.
The technique that could even gouge out Abyss Grief was about to be unleashed with the power of Tiamat added toward the girl he had once vowed to protect.
At that moment, he saw Lisa's stunned eyes looking up at him, and then he saw his own face from the reflection in her eyes.
His mouth was distorted into a hideous smile, and his eyes were shining with joy. It was the exact same face that Ken had turned to him just a few moments before ......
No ......!
The next instant, he reflexively applied his Ability Suppression back on.
The power that had been gushing out was rapidly shrinking.
However, the technique that had been activated could not be stopped. A compressed blade of Qi was released and tried to pierce Lisa.
Stop!
He pleaded with a sense of reaching out into the void.
Then, just as the blade of his master's treasured katana glowed, white chains began to coil around the Qi-blade.
Then, the chain wrapped around the expanded Qi-blade freed the enormous energy it held toward Nozomu.
