\nThe Manâs Identity\nIt was not easy to regenerate when you were being cut while having the magic energy sucked out of you.
You needed energy to make duplicates and to heal your carved up body.
âUGGGAAAAAAAA!â
One after another, the duplicates turned into piles of ash. Even the one I was using Drain Touch on turned into ash.
The only one that remained was the one I had been fighting before I started using Drain Touch.
âAre you the real one?â
As the man let out a scream, I cut into his torso with the Devil King Sword.
âI wonât forget this! I wonât forgive you, you bastard!â
âYou donât have to forgive me. Just go away.â\nIt was just as I was about to finish him off by stabbing his neck with the Devil King Sword.
âKIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNN!
There was a horrible ringing in my ears. At the same time, pain shot through my entire body.
Eric, Goran, and Katheâs faces were also twisting in agony.
âI did not expect mere humans to be able to use the protection of our godâŠâ
The man muttered, even though he had been split in half and was all bloody bones and flesh.
However, he started to heal right in front of my eyes. Even the torso I had cut off began to reconnect.
âI shouldnât be surprisedâŠâ
I had cast Magic Detection many times. However, this boss was a High Lord. And they were good with concealment magic.\nSo it would not have been odd if it had been hidden.
ââŠStill, I was so careful. Where did you hide the core?â
There was a limit to how good you could be with concealment magic.
âOh? So you know about it?â
The man said with a smile. He was almost completely recovered now.
That being said, I had still sucked in a lot of his energy. So he should be weaker than he looked.
âBut I donât want people to know about this. You will have to die.â
âWhat does it matter? You were going to kill all of us anyway.â
âHaha. That is true.â\nThis chapter is scrapped from readlightnovel.org
He was so confident in his victory now.
It was then that Goran fought against the pain and attacked him.
âAAAAARRRGH!â
âWhat!â
The manâs face twisted with surprise. The blade scratched his arm and it started to burn.
He was inside of the Evil Godâs Protection. Of course, that meant that Goranâs movements were slow.
However, the man had assumed that Goran wouldnât be able to move at all, and so he wasnât able to react in time.
Goran had erased his presence completely. Not only that, but he had moved in a calculated way so that he wouldnât be noticed.
Thatâs why the man had been taken by surprise.\nBesides, being drained of magic had also weakened him.
âDonât underestimate us!â
Eric also swung his Holy Sword and moved in.
âShut up and die!â
The man fired off small magic bullets towards Eric.
âGuh!â
Eric twisted his body and dodged them. However, he could not dodge all of them, and one magic bullet hit him in the shoulder.
