Chapter 85: Giant Killing
Seeing that his attack did affect the golem, Yuuma didn’t stop with just that attack. He ran straight toward the golem’s left foot, and since Yuuma was moving so fast, the golem couldn’t react in time.
This time, his left “Straight Thrust” nailed into the golem’s pillar-like left leg.
An earthshattering sound resounded, cracks then formed on the leg of the golem. Seeing the monster staggered backward, Yuuma was crouching down and ran to chase the golem.
The ground beneath his feet exploded as Yuuma jumped with his all, turning into a steel bullet chasing after the golem.
The next moment, the golem’s chin exploded. The horns of his helmet smashed into the golem’s chin, and the golem who couldn’t withstand the kinetic force of Yuuma’s headbutt staggered even further.
Yuuma who just connected three combo attacks in one breath then fell to the ground, glaring at his foe.
◇◇◇
「Man that looks badass for sure! That stupidly huge golem doesn’t even hold a candle against him!!」
The president who looked at the fight from afar said so to Aisha. Aisha nodded in agreement with a daring smile on her face.
「Surely
 He seems to be really powerful. But he has yet to fully release his limiter. The result of him unleashing 100% of his full potential isn’t just like this.」
「ARE YOU KIDDING ME!? HE HAS YET TO UNLEASH HIS FULL POTENTIAL!?」
The president looked at Yuuma with a dumbfounded look on his face. Yuuma then ran toward the opposite direction of the staggered golem, taking a distance from the golem.
「What are you doing? That’s a golden chance to take down that monster.」
Different from the bewildered president, Aisha was grinning happily.
「You seem to be pleased by that.」
After taking enough distance, Yuuma sprinted toward the golem again at breakneck speed.
And then jumped into the abdomen of the golem.
He curled his body in mid-air and struck as his curled-up body spun at high speed. Due to 『Liquid Metal Transformation』 melting, he changed his body into a metal ball with numerous long and sharp thorns.
The next moment―― The metal ball collided with the golem, which was then followed by an earth-shaking sound.
That collision broke the golem’s solar plexus, sending rock splinters scattered in the surrounding area.
The giant golem lost its balance and fell to its back.
It sent clouds of dust in the air along with a tremor that shook the entire floor, the metal ball that struck the golem’s chest melted again and then turned back to a humanoid figure clad in armor.
Yuuma landed on the ground, still spinning as he did.
「YOU DID IT, YUUMA! THAT’S REALLY BADASS!!」
Even the president was dumbfounded seeing how Yuuma transformed his body for the last attack. Aisha also nodded in admiration.
「Fufu, he is finally starting to utilize his abilities to their full potential. To think such a method exists.」
Yuuma then ran again toward the body of the fallen golem. He unleashed his transformed sword hand and pierced the golem’s broken chest.
The sword stabbed so effortlessly into the golem’s broken chest, causing the cracks on the chest to spread even further.
The Golem then stopped moving after its “Core” had been destroyed. According to his experience, the golem’s core is located in the chest, or head.
That’s why this time, he tried to destroy both of those points with his all but――
「Uh!?」
Yuuma’s body suddenly got caught by the golem’s left hand.
The golem’s left hand grabbed Yuuma in vice grip, as if it didn’t wish to let him go. Yuuma’s metallic body made a creaking sound.
「Guh, this
」
Yuuma then clenched his fists. The next moment, he raised a warcry and unleashed countless black sharp objects from his body.
He didn’t unleash thorn this time, he unleashed “Sword” which held more destructive power than thorn.
The moment that sword stabbed into the golem’s hand, the grip on Yuuma finally got loosened. Yuuma’s body transformed into a gelatinous substance again with 『Liquid Metal Transformation』 and escaped from the golem’s hand.
After he returned to his 『Humanoid』 form, he ran straight toward the golem’s face.
――Since the “Core” isn’t in the chest, it must be in the head.
Yuuma combined his hands together and raised his arm. His hands then turned into a single, huge metal ball.
The metal ball transformed again into a giant ax.
「UWOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!」
He brandished the ax into the golem’s head, splitting the golem’s head in half. The giant ax went down until below the neck of the golem.
That last attack caused the cracks to run all over the golem’s body.
Nevertheless, the golem didn’t die. The golem still tried to grab Yuuma with its left hand.
Yuuma swung his ax again without even turning around to see the incoming hand. The golem’s hand got sliced off from the wrist, spun in mid-air, and fell to the ground.
Yuuma focused his attention on the golem again and raised his ax overhead.
""
The bloody ore’s red, blood vessel-like line on his body glowed even brighter. Yuuma felt his body was overflowing with power along with his temperature.
――Now, this is my maximum power.
The giant ax sliced the golem’s chest as if it was nothing more than tofu. The power behind his attack shook the entire floor.
Maybe because the golem’s “Core” was located around the chest, or maybe because the damage had already surpassed critical level, the golem had finally stopped moving.
Its huge body crumbled down one by one, turning into black sand.
「Huff
 Huff
 I did it.」
Yuuma, whose arms returned to normal, stood on top of the pile of sand, looking silently at the scattered sand. He was spent. And it was just the right time to cancel『Metallization』as it was on cooldown.
「Yuuma!」
The president and Aisha, who was hiding behind the rock, rushed at him.
「You did it. How’s your body?
Yuuma started to look at his body after hearing the president’s remark but, apart from exhaustion, he found no abnormalities in his body.
「I’m alright.」
Aisha was smiling happily upon hearing that.
「You managed to utilize your abilities at your will, I have nothing but admiration for that.」
「Aisha-san. Did I manage to fully release my limiter?」
「Not yet
 You have yet to tap your full potential. You managed to unleash a greater power than usual but, it’s still a far cry from your full potential.」
「I see. That sound tough for sure.」
Yuuma scratched his cheek as he revealed a wry smile.
「But then, you’ve been training to increase the basic strength of your body. Not to mention that you consumed the iron, copper, and silver magic ore which increase your basic stats. There’s also a fifteen times increase in physical strength with bloody ore, the super strength. The time it twice if we include your strength after canceling the limiter of your physical strength. In total, you might’ve shown a power akin to thirty times normal. In short, you’re a 『Superman』」
「So it’s working in that way
」
「Well, adjusting the output is the main problem but it shouldn’t be a big deal as long as you keep your training. That’s why it’s for the best for you to continue your daily training with Kotaro.」
「Yes, I understand!」
「Okay, leave it to me.」
「That’s a relief!」 Said the president as he patted Yuuma’s head, Aisha then looked at the black sands left by the golem.
「That’s
」
Aisha squatted down and took out something buried inside the sand with great care.
It was 『Magic Ore of Silver』 which size was incomparably bigger than before.
