RE: The Extra's Dominance-Chapter 35 - A Wild Spirit Appeared! [2]

(Raven’s POV)

BOOM!

The spirit, upon arriving near me, shot a powerful lightning!

It produced a sound loud enough that my ears are still ringing.

Though luckily... I was able to dodge on time.

-Who are you?

The spirit asked me. Its voice is small but beautiful. I frowned after hearing it.

I looked at the spirit arrogantly before opening my mouth.

"I am God."

I said with a serious face.

’I hope it stops attacking.’

After my words, the spirit looked at me for a while.

-Hmm... It’s true that I can sense some divinity coming from you, but it’s not as much as a god.

It then said with curiosity in its tone.

’What the fuck is it on about?’

I thought with a frown. The spirit just blurted out something weird.

’Well, I don’t care as it stopped attacking me.’

Or so I thought...

CRACKLE—

I suddenly saw electric sparks appeared around the spirit’s small body!

"Every time I think everything is over, shit happens!"

I exclaimed in desperation and frustration.

BOOOM!

Then another lightning was shot at me!

"URGH...!"

I jumped to the meadow. I know standing in an open area is stupid, but what can I do? The trees are burning and the lightnings are not coming from the sky anyway!

"Why are you attacking me?!"

I yelled in annoyance at the spirit.

The spirit casually shook its head.

-No reason.

Then it said with a shrug.

I frowned at the answer I received.

’System, do physical attacks work on that thing?’

I asked the system while observing the spirit’s movements.

[Yes.]

I received a short reply but that was enough for me.

Swish~

A dagger appeared in my right hand, while a gun in the left.

I immediately pointed my gun at the spirit.

And within a second—

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

I fired five bullets!

-Hmm, you’re weak.

The spirit said, then....

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Three lightnings fell from the sky.

One struck the bullets, and the other two were aimed at me!

I dashed forward to avoid the two lightnings.

Then looking up at the spirit.

SWIIISH—

I threw my mana-coated dagger at it.

Phak—

As I expected, the dagger missed. It stabbed into a tree. The spirit is too small and too fast!

But I didn’t despair at that.

"[Strengthen]"

"[Accelerate]"

Instead, I cast buffs on myself.

BAM!

Then I jumped in the air, toward the spirit while pointing my gun at it.

The presence and pressure being emitted by the spirit is strong. But not as strong as Ruby’s!

FWOOSH—

So I activated <Monarch’s Presence>!

My presence became bigger and majestic. Feeling my aura, the spirit looked at me with a hint of interest for a second, but after that, its expression went back to being bored.

The spirit is just watching me as I approach its location at a fast pace.

I didn’t mind it being so casual and just pulled the trigger.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Another five bullets were fired. I immediately changed the magazine of my gun.

Bang! Bang! Bang—!

And shot again ten times!

It all happened in a matter of seconds.

But the spirit just pointed its small hands in my direction.

-It’s futile.

And after saying that...

BZOOOM–

The largest lightning I’ve ever seen in my entire life was fired at me!

I frowned and desperately lifted my right hand in front of me.

"[Devour]!"

I shouted. Then a huge black vortex came out from the [Ring of Gluttony], it made contact with the enormous lightning, and started to swallow it!

"Krrreghh... ARRRRGH!"

My whole body feels like it’s being twisted, the mana I was absorbing from the lightning was too much and my capacity can’t handle it.

’Even though I’m only taking half of the mana really used to cast this damn lightning!’

My advance got cut off and the spirit was looking at me like it was watching a show.

I was about ten meters away from it. And we’re both in the air.

’FUCKER!!!’

WHOOSH~

I used the overflowing mana I got and sent [Celestria] into my right leg. I poured a lot of mana into it... Then [Celestria] transformed into a long blade about 20 meters long!

"KRRRGH...!!"

The blade is too long and heavy for my right leg alone, and my mana is still overflowing!

So I used the rest of the mana I absorbed to strengthen my right leg. I also covered the 20-meter-long blade, [Celestria], with dense mana.

And with that—

"HAAAAAA!!!"

SWIIISH—

I kicked horizontally, aiming at the spirit!

It all happened in about 3 seconds, and I know the spirit is seeing all of my actions in slow motion, but I still have to try something.

And as I thought... The spirit just looked at me calmly. And as my blade was about to reach it, the spirit just flew upwards a little.

SLASH–!

CRASH!!

The trees that made contact with my blade covered with mana were cut easily and fell to the ground.

I missed my target.

But still, I was able to completely swallow the enormous lightning and my mana is still full!

I reformed [Celestria] into a battle suit and landed in the meadow.

Tap-

And as soon as I landed, my knees got sluggish and almost gave out.

"Haaa... fuuuuuhh..." freeweɓnovel.cøm

-Why don’t you just kneel?

The spirit asked casually, looking down at me from the air.

I turned to it and frowned.

"Kneeling down would not change anything, so no, I won’t."

I said as I straightened my body.

-Hmmmm... You’re weird.

"I know."

There’s already a lot of people who said that to me, and I’m self aware.

The spirit smiled for the first time and opened its mouth.

-HAHAHAHA—you’re funny too.

It started to laugh. I just stared at it as my right leg still feels numb and my whole body aches.

-How about this... If you survive five minutes against me, I’ll let you guys free.

The spirit suggested while pointing at Clifford and his group. I looked at the [Coldvale] members.

They’re looking at me, they seem to want to ask who I am.

I frowned, now all the hiding I’ve done until now is useless.

I shifted my attention back at the spirit.

"Five minutes? I can do anything?"

I asked.

-You can.

A smile crept up on my face.

This is my only way out, so why would I decline?

’And once Clifford recovers, which will not take that long... He can deal with this fucking spirit.’

My smile deepened as I thought of that.

"You’ve got a deal."

The spirit smiled at my words and pointed at Clifford and the others.

-This is a duel, if you guys interfere, don’t even think of getting out of this place unscathed.

As the spirit said that, we felt many eyes looking at us. Chills ran down my spine!

"?!!"

-By the way, I’m the leader of all creatures in this area. Be it monsters or beasts, good-natured or evil.

The gazes we felt were from all the creatures in the area who were hiding, ready to attack anytime!

I frowned and violently scratched my head in annoyance.

"Every... fucking... time."

’Why can’t things go my way in this fucking dungeon!’

As I thought of that, magic circles started to appear one by one from the sky.

Looking at them, I felt my eyes getting teary and I started cursing everything.

"Fucking sky..."

After a small pause, I opened my mouth again.

"I JUST WANT A MATERIAL TO USE FOR MY WEAPON!!!"

I exclaimed at the top of my lungs, letting my annoyance take control of my mouth.
