Chapter 166: Karna vs. Vlad III
The battle between the Red Lancer Karna and the Black Berserker Vlad III remained evenly matched.
Despite the same use of guns as weapons, the style is completely different. Flender III, who attacked with a single finger mobilizing the rafters, and Karna, who smashed his target directly with a spear in his hand.
Vlad III unleashes the rafters as he distances himself, while Karna smashes the opponent's rafters and closes in on his opponent – repeating the same process all the time.
Mystical phenomena are neutralized by more powerful mystical phenomena. In this respect, Karna is far superior to Vlad III. Judging from the strength of his life alone, the great hero Karna is already an exceptional existence.
In order to return him to the loess, Indra, the god of thunder, also had to rack his brains to resort to all kinds of intrigues. Despite being betrayed by all his companions, he is still the strongest spearman in the high wind and bright festival that has not fallen to the ground.
- However, even if he was like that, he could not capture Vlad III.
Unlike Karna, who is uncertain whether he actually existed, Vlad III was a hero who did exist.
Regarded as an object of fear by his neighbors, he is equally feared by the people – but he is still a hero of national salvation who is both respected and worshipped.
Without him, our country would not exist – the heroes who have been so etched in history have now come to this country. In this country, his popularity is equivalent to that of the Great Sage.
His treasure, the "Death Punishment King", is also extraordinarily powerful.
Indeed, it was nothing more than an ordinary rafter pile. But the problem is that these rafters are beings that can be summoned freely at the behest of Vlad III.
Of course, even if such a powerful Noble Phantasm was used against only one person, Karna was still a fool. Both feet, right shoulder, left abdomen, left elbow, etc., obviously all parts have been attacked by the rafters more than once, and his movements and strength are still unchanged. Those are just trivial damage that can be repaired while fighting.
But—
"—indeed, it's amazing. Thou hast broken a thousand rafters with thy spear, and burned eight hundred rafters with the flames that have been wound around thy body, and thou hast withstood two thousand rafters with that golden armor? Red Lancer, you are worthy of the title of hero. With your armor, let alone a rafter, I'm afraid that even the city-breaking hammer will not have any effect. ”
In response to Vlad III's words of appreciation, Karna replied with seriousness:
"It's over, Grand Duke. I also understand that for you, the rafters are both offensive and defensive, both a demonstration and a symbol of terror.
“…… What?"
"Demarcate territories, demarcate cities, demarcate what you want to protect—in other words, you're trying to form a nation from just one person. Is it the love of your country that prompts you to do this, or is it the sense of responsibility that comes from being a king?"
In a bland tone, Karna debunked the skin of Vlad III – not the skin of the body, but the skin of the heart.
"But you don't have any subordinates to lead here, and though the king should keep his solitary stance, there is no king in the world who has no followers. You've made a mistake, Piercing Male. I am a heroic spirit, and I will not be afraid even if I regard my kingdom as an enemy. ”
"Oh, interesting. ”
Vlad III smiled—a grim smile filled with anger, passion, hatred, and murderous intent.
"Even if you are single-handedly against my country, you will not be afraid? Truly a hero - I've already punished you three times for your arrogance. That's right...... Three times before and after, my gun stabbed you in the body. So die here. ”
“——!?”
Feeling the chill that hit his body, Karna reflexively wanted to jump backwards - however, it was no longer a matter of speed or slowness. Because that's already in the past, and the attack is over......!
"It's so fast. That's right, the rafter stake of my 'Capital Punishment King' is not a treasure, the treasure is actually the 'erected rafter pile' itself. As long as I'm in this field, no matter how much I consolidate my defense, as long as there is the fact that I'm attacking—"
Something in Karna's body began to swell violently. That hard, sharp, and creepy-cold thing is—
"It's a rafter...... ......"
The golden armor on Karna's body is almost completely protective against rafters, blades, hammers, and all physical and magical attacks. However, the only exception is attacks from the inside. Moreover, the rafters still appear in the state of piercing the target.
Even a finch bee that flies freely in the sky, with strong jaws and poisonous needles that prey on prey, is nothing more than a weak bait if it is trapped in a spider web that overlaps ten or twenty layers.
From the rafters pierced on the body, blood began to drip continuously. Suffering damage while wearing this armor was probably the first experience for Karna.
Seeing this opportunity, Vlad III raised his spear and stabbed in order to win the victory. He had never imagined that this level of damage would kill Karna.
So he didn't let go of this moment. No matter what kind of hero he is, it is impossible to resist in a state of being pierced by a rafter——!!
"That's it, Red Lancer ......!"
Countless rafters attacked like a turbidity current, and Vlad III launched a surprise attack with a gun. Those things are more apt to be piranhas than treasures. After all, he didn't run out of mana. As long as there is magic squeezed from the androids, his rafters can regenerate forever. The number of 20,000 is only the maximum number when activated. No matter how many rafters are broken, they can be regenerated as long as they have magical power.
In other words, the battlefield has in fact been filled with his malicious rafters. It is impossible to defeat at all, and it is impossible to challenge the king who rules the entire land and the entire country single-handedly.
But—for the hero Karna, this situation of being surrounded by enemies is nothing more than a very ordinary situation.
Faced with the spear aimed at the head stab, Karna easily unleashed the blow, and it was almost impossible to feel the damage caused by the piercing of the rafters.
“……!!”
Even Vlad III was dumbfounded.
At this time, Karna exerted his superhuman willpower.
"Flames—"
Flames enveloped Karna's entire body at once. In an instant, Vlad III understood that he was going to burn the rafters with flames.
Vlad III, who was about to sneer, froze suddenly. The flames were absorbed into Karna's body. Burning, burning, burning—the rafters that ravaged Karna were burned to the ground.
At that moment, the rafters rained down on him.
However, what they tried to penetrate was the embodiment of flames, the children of the sun that even the fire spirits could not burn.
Golden armor, a god-given spear. The golden armor granted by his mother's pleadings, and the blood of the gods inherited from the sun god, all of this is only half the information that introduces Karna as a servant.
Karna's strongest weapon is the Will. A strong will, a strong heart, a great hero who endured all misfortunes while not resenting anyone. Despite being endowed with something more special than anyone else, he does not see himself as a special man because of this.
Neither arrogant nor complacent, he is a hero who has adhered to a way of life worthy of his father's prestige from birth until he was knocked down.
Therefore, even if the organs are pierced and the nerves of the arm are punctured by only three rafters, even if they are attacked by the spiritual oppression from countless rafters, even if they endure the unimaginable pain of letting the flames circulate in their bodies in order to get rid of the current situation-
Karna will not be afraid, nor will he give in to his enemies——!
Flames swirled around the two of them. It's exactly the same as it was just now. Flame can make everything invisible. However, it's not all.
"-Grand Duke, I have taken your head!"
