The Ruined Death Knight

Chapter 382 Shiro's Body State(2)

Seeing Shiro, their mistress curls up and screams in pain, Koji and Niyuki were extremely confused and worried at the same time.

They have been in watch of how their mistress was using powerful magic to devastate the enemies in case of any danger, but then suddenly she collapse in pain.

They didn't see any sort of attack or the sort of attack on their mistress. Both of them felt as if they failed the order of their liege.

And all they could think of where the source of pain was coming from was the last remaining enemy, the ice troll with the axe chains.

The light of the runes grew stronger and the amount of mist leaving from their armor increased as they stepped forward toward the ice troll.

"Hmpf, so she gave out after 3 shots?" The ice troll with the axe chains scoffed as he stepped forward in response to Koji and Niyuki.

Koji stared at Niyuki for a short moment before the latter nodded.

Acting both at the same time, Niyuki went and grabbed Shiro while running away and Koji went and dashed towards the remaining ice troll.

Koji was running in a low poster at the speed of an average 3rd-tier warrior, which in hindsight was extremely fast.

"Buying time?" The ice troll scoffed as he raised one of his axes and threw it at Koji's location. Koji was easily able to step to the side and dodge.

*Bough!

The axe landed on the ground with incredible force, throwing the snow away together with the earth as the axe was rooted to the ground.

Any of that didn't stop Koji from running straight toward the ice troll.

The ice troll raised his other axe and seeing to wait for Koji to approach close enough.

But once the ice troll judged Koji as being 3 times away of his range, a vicious smirk appeared on his face.

The ice troll guided mana towards both his legs and the chain of his other axes and suddenly, the ice troll grabbed the chain and dragged himself forwards as he dashed towards Koji, closing the distance between him and Koji almost instantly.

"Die!" The ice troll swung his axe down right towards Koji like a guillotine.

Though what the ice troll didn't expect was that Koji saw right through the ice troll's intent by the time it grabbed the chain and decided to halt his steps and jump away out of the axe range, if not only barely.

Resulting in the axe hitting the ground and raising a large amount of snow.

*Boughhh!

Once the snow fell down and reveal the two of them standing opposite to each other, the ice troll gnashed his teeth.

"Tch!"

As he did, a large wound appeared in front of his chest and throwing lots of blood.

"Such a long yet sharp weapon," The ice troll said as the wound on his chest was regenerating.

Koji was none discouraged or annoyed by that.

There was a stalemate between the two, the ice troll despite looking fine, was still regenerating while Koji was only playing the waiting game.

And soon enough, Niyuki came running back with his flamberge resting on top of his shoulder while running.

"Disgrace of warriors," The ice troll said with anger as he grabbed the chain of the axe he threw.

Wrapping around his hand and stepping to the side, the axe came out of the ground and together with the chain swung towards Niyuki who was trying to get to the ice troll's ice.

Niyuki didn't even halt for a split second and continued dashing to surround the ice troll, and once the chain with the axe came towards him, without even his "head" looking, he jumped above the swung chains and easily avoided them.

The ice troll though annoyed by that wasn't going to waste their momentum and energy on him swinging those chains. He changed his poster and raised the chains up in the air before swinging them down towards swinging them down to Koji that was in front of them, the action alone dislocated his arm swinging the chains, but forced Koji to step away.

*Brack.

Seeing the chance, Koji dashed forwards with his odachi.

The ice troll in turn put his axe on his mouth while fixing his right arm.

And then a load of mana moved through his arms and the chains.

The mana made the chains move unnaturally fast and in a way that wouldn't have been possible normally, and even then it would require a mastery of controlling the chains, something that the ice troll already had.

The chains moved around Koji into a circle, which once pulled by the ice troll, the circle around Koji closed while creating sparks, aiming to crash Koji into half with the amount of force that was on the chains.

Koji though was all observant of his enemy's actions, the use of a skill that he had no knowledge of was asking too much to predict.

Though even then, Koji wasn't planning to disappoint his liege by getting destroyed and no longer able to perform his duty.

And that was when Koji used the nature of his body, the body of a living armor to its full advantage.

Both Koji and Niyuki were hollow armor, they had no restrictions on muscle structure, bones, or any of the sort that made their body move. Although they couldn't control a body part of theirs if disconnected, other than this restriction, they could move their body as they wished.

Half of Koji's leg twisted and he bend his body unnaturally to the point it was close to touching the ground. His other arm turned almost to the other side as he support himself.

That movement alone allowed him to escape from being crushed by the chains.

Though Koji wasn't satisfied with only dodging, no.

He started fixing his body which made him make a fast turn as he swung his odachi with one arm at the ice troll's belly, creating a large wound.

Shocking the ice troll.

"What the hell!?" He yelled as he grabbed the axe from his mouth and was about to swing at the living armor in front of him, but before he could, Niyuki was already behind him with the flamberge being held by both of his arms.

And he swung the flamberge at the ice troll back.

And once the flamberge began cutting through the ice troll's back, an immense pain run through him. flamberge was best used in cutting flesh as it left deep cuts and the vibrations alone were very uncomfortable.

"Gahhh!" The ice troll yelled as he finished his swing towards Koji, forcing him back and using one of his legs he kicked Niyuki, who blocked with his flamberge.

Niyuki then went to join Koji, readying to assault his face forward.

Seeing that while breathing heavily, the ice troll gnashing his teeth.

"Ghhhhhhh!!!"

The wound on his back and belly started to smoke as an accelerated regeneration was taking place.

"Cowards, I will give you that, you are strong. But-!"

Letting go of his axe to fall to the ground, the ice troll grabbed the spear with many needles on his arm.

"I will be taking one of you out!" The ice troll yelled as the arm holding the spear like a javelin bulged up and the mana surrounded the spear.

"I was planning to use this to hunt the thousand screaming one...so be honored to receive it!!!" The ice troll went on one of his legs and his aura changed totally as veins started to form around his neck and head.

Both Koji and Niyuki knew, that the throw of the spear will be as fast as it would be strong...strong enough to take one of them out.

Koji was the one to step forwards and advantage of the ice troll, despite making him the most likely target, Niyuki reacted a second too late before him to run to stop the ice troll.

The ice troll's gaze landed on Koji and his total focus was shifted to him.

He ignored everything else and went to throw the spear.

But suddenly, he heard a small sound similar to a mosquito near your ear.

Even though he noticed the sound, the ice troll ignored the source of the sound.

Though, even if he saw the source of the sound, he wouldn't have been able to react.

*Fseeeeen! Fseeeen! Fseeeen!

Just as he was about to release the spear, 3 swift dark green wind blades cut through him. One severed the arm that held the spear, one other cutting his body half of the body while the last remaining cut his other arm.

"Hu-hagghhhhh! AGHHHHHH!!!??!?!"

A pain as real as ethereal assaulted his mind as he felt his flesh and something else that was of him being cut away. Resulting in a pain that he never ever believe to exist.

He tried to forcefully accelerate his regeneration, but something was making his racial talent not work, or rather to reduce the regeneration to meager levels.

"A-Aghh!!! W-What agh! is thi-ghhgh PAIN!!!?" The ice troll howled in pain.

And then, he noticed a dark green mist form in front of him and materializing a dark-plated armor.

Taking upon notice of that, the ice troll gazed in front of the dark-plated being with a skull that had a pair of dark green flaring eyes.

But suddenly the image started to change as he lay his eyes upon the skull with flaring eyes. Or more accurately, the ice troll was seeing a vision, of a blackened world with thousands of millions of souls trying to claw their way toward him, with only the figure in front of him holding those souls back.

Alas, to him, the figure in front of him was the scariest thing he saw through his entire life to the point he couldn't stop shaking.

"What-are-you!?!?" The ice troll yelled as he was under the effect [Bringer of the End].

Danzel stared at the disliked ice troll as his cruel cold voice responded.

"Death."

The ice troll's eyes widen in shock as he watched the souls clawing toward him.

"It-can't be-! You-!"

Before he could finish his sentence, an ice spear came from the ground and pierced his mouth

"Gha-!?"

And then spears started growing out of the ground and pierced his body into bits.

Receiving the XP notification, Danzel went and looked for Shiro which was placed in one of the wooden houses' front door.

Turning into most, he almost immediately appeared in front of her, screaming in pain.

"What is this..." Danzel looked confused as he saw her horns grow a bit and the blue veins becoming black though around her face and arms.

Danzel undid the bones holding her haired buffalo cloth, only to see black veins all through her body.

"What the hell happend here?" Danzel said confused as he inspected the black veins.

Figuring nothing out, Danzel brought out her status screen.

And after reading a bit, he understood what was happening.

"Seriously...?"
