Instead of Being Transported to Another World Directly, I Was Given the Abilities of the Strongest Character in the Anime World - Chapter 9
“Drink up. It’s a potion.”
“Ah… ah… thank you…”
She has wounds all over her body, so I give her a bottle of potion for the time being.
“What? Are you my playmate this time? The Skeleton King asked.
“Yes. I will play with you to the fullest.”
In no time, the Skeleton King summons many skeletons at first, which I destroy instantly.
The technique used is to rain down scalpels made of blood.
“Can you escape from the rain of death?”
Again, I did it.
In a similar way to Remilia-san’s situation, using the technique of the anime character was thrilling.
The red rain crushes the Skeleton King’s bones, finally shattering them into pieces.
However, the shattered bones begin to gather, and the Skeleton King appears without a scratch.
“You seem quite strong, but you aren’t an opponent of me, an immortal.”
Hmm…that’s why they call it the dungeon of the immortals.
And I can’t help but smile at the sight of him.
“What’s funny, weakling? Have you gotten mad now that you know I’m immortal?”
“No, no, I just think you’d make a good experiment.”
“An experiment? I’ll make you regret saying that!”
It seems like my words must have hurt the Skeleton King’s pride because he thrust his sharp bones at me with tremendous force and strength.
However, I avoid all of them with a thin paper gap.
Avoid.
Avoid.
Using the scalpel, I break off any bones that might pierce the girl behind me.
Lastly, I scalpel the skeleton king and smash him into pieces.
“M-monster…! But as long as I’m immortal….”
“Don’t talk so much about immortality. It makes it seem cheap.”
For the first time, the Skeleton King was aware of death.
When facing an immortal opponent, even the strongest would lose their composure.
However, his opponent was still staring at him as if he had been fighting with a mere winged insect.
“That’s right! Let’s negotiate! I’ll give you whatever you want from my treasures. In fact, I’ll give you everything! Don’t get closer!”
“I’ll take it all anyway, after I kill you. I’ll end you with this sword as a special thank-you for entertaining me.”
“No, no!”
When I struck the Skeleton King, he turned into a particle of light, cried out in despair, and finally faded.
Of course, there was no sign of revival.
It was only natural.
I can kill them all, whether a spirit, an immortal, or a god.
After all, I’m not a mere immortal.
“Huh? You haven’t drunk yet?”
“..”
“… Live. The life is beautiful.”
After muttering the famous line to the woman who had not yet drunk the potion I gave her, I disappeared from the scene.
Honestly, the dungeon is a beautiful place; I’ve been there for a long time.
The only light around me is moonlight and the stars at night.
However, thinking about the battle earlier, I smiled to myself, saying it was the coolest thing I’d ever done.
Especially the way I said a few words to the woman before I left and then disappeared.
I think it’s so cool that it almost doesn’t suit me.
Thinking so, I headed off to the inn I’m currently renting.
◆◆◆
I had a second name, “Shirogane no Shirayuki,” a title of adventurer rank SSS, the experience of passing through many deaths, and the pride that comes with it all.
Even with all of this, I felt powerless to save the people I cared about.
The skeleton king in front of me seemed to be laughing at me, telling me that I would die if I did not know my place. He also said to me that even if I had a large number of gold coins, without power, I would be nothing more than scrap iron.
How many hours have we fought since then?
It feels like hours; it feels like days.
No matter how hard I try to defeat him, the Skeleton King keeps returning to life.
I thought that even immortals have a limited number of times to return to life so he can defeated.
I thought that if I couldn’t beat him ten times, I could beat him a hundred times. If a hundred times didn’t work, I could defeat him a thousand times.
However, the Skeleton King still stands in front of me.
My body is covered in scars, and my consciousness is so foggy that I can barely stand up, but the Skeleton King’s body is without a scratch.
Finally, I’m blown away by the Skeleton King’s blow and slammed into the wall.
Ah, no one comes to save me after all.
Tears of frustration welled up in my eyes.
At that moment, I notice a man standing beside me, and my heart cries out to him to run away.
“Help me, please!”
But the words that came out of my mouth were a plea for help.
He has no equipment, only a slightly unusual upper and lower black garment.
With such equipment or any equipment for that matter, I could not defeat the skeleton king in front of me.
Despite this, I’m still trying to hold on to my life.
“I’ll help you if you become my slave.”
He is not the first person who wants to make me his slave.
I have crushed anyone who has said so, even if they were a nobleman.
However, I was willing to be a slave as long as I could live.
So I replied, yes.
From then on, I couldn’t help but watch the battle between him and the Skeleton King.
It was like a heroic tale my parents had told me when I was a child.
Watching the battle, I strangely thought he could defeat the Skeleton King.
But that is what heroes in heroic tales are supposed to be like.
I found myself staring at him, fighting the Skeleton King with my hands folded in front of me.
I felt like I’m a maiden kidnapped by the Demon King and he came to rescue me.
It has been more than ten years since I felt like a woman again.
