Chapter 389: Bring Down the Ancient Aerial Fortress! 12
The Reincarnated Extra
Bring Down the Ancient Aerial Fortress! 12
* * *
Thud⦠BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!
The Divine Jewel Emi threw pierced through the power source of the aerial fortress, âSoul Conquerorâ, destroying it in a single blow.
As a result, the enormous magical energy that powered this aerial fortress went out of controlâ¦
â¦And a massive explosion occurred!
âN-Guooh!?â
That impact naturally shook even the control room of this aerial fortress violently!
BOOM!
BOOOOM!!
BO, GOGO, BOGOOOOM!!!
And then, explosions occurred intermittently in various parts of the fortress!
Inside the control room, shaking violentlyâ¦
â¦Megzam clung to the throne, desperately trying to resist the tremors.
He could no longer stand!
VEEEEEEE, VEEEEEEE, VEEEEEEE!!
The magic lamps illuminating the control room turned red, and a critical alarm blared!
Simultaneously with Engeeâs scream, the diagram of âSoul Conquerorâ displayed on the screen!
The names of the main components that supported the operation of this unit, displayed there, turned gray one after another!
Finally, static ran through the display itself, and the image disappeared with a âsnapââ¦
BOGOOOOOOOOOOON!!
The next moment, it was shattered into pieces by an explosion that occurred in the control room!
âGAAAAAAAAAAH!?â
Fragments of the display scattered!
Even Megzam, whose body had been strengthened by devouring souls, couldnât escape unscathed.
He instinctively raised his arms in front of his face, protecting his head from a fatal injury, but his body was already mangled.
Fragments pierced his arms, and blood was flowing from themâ¦!
âHeeeeeeey! Engeeee! What the hell are we going to dooooã¼ã¼ã¼!?â
BOOOOM!!
BOGOOOOM!!
More explosions occurred in the control room!
Sparks flew!
Megzam raised his voice, trying to be heard over the noise.
Engee, in response to Megzamâs voice, shouted that with a desperate laugh.
And then, all of a suddenâ¦
â¦Engeeâs presence, which had been scattered throughout âSoul Conquerorâ⦠converged on the magic sword âSoul Devourerâ, stuck in the pincushion-like mechanism in front of Megzam.
In other words, he had stopped possessing the aerial fortress and returned to his original vessel, the magic sword.
âThe last resort!? What are you planning to do!?â
The next moment⦠the pincushion that âSoul Devourerâ was stuck in moved with a âclunkâ sound, and began to rise towards a hole that had opened in the ceiling!
And this Great Evil Spirit⦠who calls himself âthe Worldâs Calamityâ!
He shamelessly declared!!
âH-Haaaaaaaaaahã¼ã¼ã¼!?â
âW-Wait, wait, wait! Then what about me!? Whatâs going to happen to me!?â
Megzam, dumbfounded, crawled towards the rising pincushion.
Towards his âpartnerâ.
Engee.
â¦Heartlessly abandoned him!
Engee, mocking Megzam from atop the gradually rising pincushion!
âWhat did you say⦠what did you say, you bastardã¼ã¼ã¼!!â
Of course, that would make Engeeâs goal of âbecoming a transcendent beingâ more distant.
But thereâs nothing he can do about it.
Now that heâs lost âSoul Conquerorâ, his plan is ruined.
He needs to devise a new plan.
But thereâs no need to rush.
After all, Engee Albitt is a Great Evil Spirit.
Heâs an existence freed from the shackles of something as trivial as a lifespan.
He has all the time in the world.
So even at this pointâ¦
â¦Engee, of course, felt frustration, butâ¦
â¦He lacked a sense of danger.
Thatâs whyâ¦
â¦He didnât anticipate at allâ¦
â¦What the cornered, giant man in front of himâ¦
â¦Would do.
âDONâT SCREW WITH ME, YOU FUCKã¼ã¼ã¼!!!â
Megzam was enraged.
He ripped off the hat that was connecting his mind to âSoul Conquerorâ, now nothing more than a decoration, threw it to the ground, andâ¦
â¦Ran towards the pincushion that was rising towards the ceiling with incredible speed, jumped up with his enhanced jumping power, andâ¦
â¦Grabbed the hilt of the magic sword, âSoul Devourerâ!
âUOOOOOOOOOHã¼ã¼ã¼!!!â
And he exerted all his monstrous strength⦠trying to pull âSoul Devourerâ from the pincushion!
He shook âSoul Devourerâ wildly in every direction!
He canât let it be pulled out!
âSoul Devourerâ desperately clung to the pincushion, using mana to resist!
Gachagachagacha!
But Megzam, ignoring that, continued to shake âSoul Devourerâ violently!
With all his might, strengthened by devouring souls with the power of âSoul Devourerâ!
As a result, âSoul Devourerâ was subjected to a load greater than Engee had anticipated!
And then!
Crack.
An unpleasant sound.
The next moment.
Snap!
With a surprisingly light soundâ¦
â¦âSoul Devourerâ⦠broke.
With that final scream of agonyâ¦
â¦Engeeâs voice was completely silenced.
Megzam, gripping the broken hilt of âSoul Devourerâ, fell from the rising pincushion.
And landed on his butt on the control room floor.
The remaining blade of the broken âSoul Devourerâ, still stuck in the pincushion, continued to rise silently, and disappeared into the hole in the ceiling.
âShit⦠shit!!â
Megzam, rubbing his backside, stood up.
BOOOOM!!
BOOM, BOOOOM!!
The explosions of âSoul Conquerorâ were still continuing.
The control room shook, illuminated by red magic lamps.
âHey⦠heeeeeey!! Engee, Engee! Canât you hear meeeã¼ã¼ã¼!!â
Megzam shouted at the hilt of âSoul Devourerâ he was holding in his hand.
Thereâs no reply.
âSomeone⦠someone!! Help meeeã¼ã¼ã¼!!â
And he looked around the control room with bloodshot eyes, begging for help.
Thereâs no reply.
âTAPPAAAAAã¼ã¼ã¼!!!â
Thereâs no reply.
âANDAAAAAAAAHã¼ã¼ã¼!!!â
Thereâs no reply.
âDamn it⦠DAMNNN IIIIT!!!â
The moment Megzam shouted thatâ¦
â¦The ceiling above him exploded.
Megzam, screaming, was crushed by the falling debris.
And died.
