Chapter 419 Expedition To The Frozen Region: Hell Beneath The Ice (V)

NovelBin

Who would have thought that after everything I did would just not properly work against him? Most of my attacks hit him and I even managed to cut off his arm one time but he just reattached it like it was a detachable part of his like nothing.

Looking at my current situation, it was clear who is the big winner here. It was a one-sided fight where the only one who struggled and suffered is me. On the other hand, my enemy who is standing before me is currently just looking at me without having any single problem. Sure he is currently covered in blood and it was his own blood but he doesn't possess any single wound that would indicate the location where the blood came from.

He is just there, standing and staring at me, waiting for me to take action. However, that is close to impossible for me. Even if it was a game, the injuries inflicted on me scream a lot, and disregarding it just makes the pain much worse, and healing it with just normal healing magic is not even elevating the pain. If you put it on game terms, it was like I was inflicted with a debuff that would keep me feeling the pain while moving around.

"What's wrong? Aren't you too gung-ho about defeating me earlier? Where is that spunk that you are showing off earlier?"

"Urgh..."

"Master! Summon us out so we can help!" Atlas begged for him to go out and fight.

"You can't just leave us out of the fight and let you suffer like this, Master!" Tina also pleaded.

"No...he is too much for all of you, you guys will just die fighting against him...he is just too much of a person to fight against with!"

I grind my teeth in frustration. I know that it was close to impossible but it was clear as day that this guy is not just an ordinary NPC nor he is a player. In fact, his abilities are close to or almost on par with demi-gods that exist in the game. They are powerful entities that are part god and part human due to how a human conceived a baby from a god or vice versa depending on the gender of the god or the human.

But this guy clearly has no such thing as a bloodline from the ancient gods. He is clearly not a demi-human and yet he possesses this much power that can rival them. Just what the heck is this guy and why is he here underground? Did he fell here just like me? Is he stranded here and ends up living here all by himself? Or is it something else?

Despite that, I decided to fight back and stand up again. He is eager to defeat me but even though I can't move right now, he is not doing anything that would actually kill me. I don't know what is the main purpose of this guy.

"Well, looks like you are ready to go again. Come on! Show me what you got!"

I can't lose here. Even if he is an NPC or not, whether this is a reality or not, I refuse to just lose. If I have no chance of winning, then I have to fight till the very end.

Reigniting the flames in my sword, I started moving my feet and even with the heavy feeling that my body felt. Focusing all of what my eyes can see on him, I charge forward while I am getting ready to also pull out the Pain Delivery. I know that it didn't do much to him and even if it does, it won't just remain as he will just heal it off. But I have to make sure to do it right.

I stop not too far from his position and timed my body to lightly swing it to him. I know he will just dodge but I have to make sure to focus on his movement and find a way to defeat him from that. But as I swing the Versatile Weapon, it hit something and my swing stopped midway.

And that's when I saw this man grinned as he held my weapon with his bare hands.

"You have fought me for too long. Come on and sleep."

SMACK!

A very heavy pain suddenly kicked at the back of my head. That level of attack shouldn't be enough to put me to sleep in the past timeline but with this body, it is not strong enough to withstand that very easily. Before I knew it, I lost consciousness and a warning from the system appeared before me before I lost consciousness.

Nove l B(in).C OM

[User is on the verge of suffering mental damage. To avoid further pain, the Reality Verse will activate its emergency function and put the user to Sleep Mode and help the user recover a bit. The process won't take that long and will probably last for a few hours. Please rest assured you are going to be safe. Thank you for understanding].

And before I knew it, I lost consciousness.

[Rebooting]

[User's body is 100% recuperated from damages]

[Welcome Back, Bladeheart]

My eyes opened wide and I looked around the place. My consciousness seems to be forcefully locked by the system all of a sudden that I have no idea what happened to me. It was like I was really passed out in real life. However, instead of forcing me to log out, I was kept inside and seems to have rebooted what my consciousness has and helped me recover.

p I looked around and realized that I am no longer lying on the clearing but on some kind of cave. It was a bit dark so I can't see much on what is going on.

"Master? Yes! Finally you are awake!" Lucia's voice can be heard from the Summon's Area. Her voice sounds worried.

"What is going on. I don't think I know what happened after I passed out... Where am I?"

"I don't where exactly this place is but I am quite certain that after you were knocked out by the strong guy from earlier, you were carried here and doused you with some potion. After doing all of that, he left and he didn't return ever since," Lucia explained.

"How long was I passed out?"

"About 7 hours if I counted correctly, Master. If you remained asleep for a few more minutes then it should be 8 hours," Lina calculated.

That was very long. I thought my consciousness was just out in a few minutes but it spanned out for hours. And the fact that I am not conscious and I felt like a few minutes passed by after that made it insane. Something must have happened for the system to activate and force me on that situation. Even in the past timeline, I have never been in this situation where I am forced to go into this kind of system isolation. This was a new feature that I just discovered today.

Stretching my arms, it looks like my senses are gradually returning after I woke up. My HP and MP are also back to full bar. I looked at the side of the bed where I was lying before and I found all of my armor, the Pain Delivery and the Versatile Weapon all laid out on the table. All of them are neatly laid out on the table and I can tell that the person who did this knows how to handle and care on weapons. Most people usually don't get it right but seeing it laid out like this made me sigh in relief.

Since I can fully move now without any sort of complications of any sort, I equipped my equipment again. I also realized that its much warmer compared to the temperature that is underground. I am also quite sure that it shouldn't be this warm due to how the weather outside is already enough to freeze the surroundings and yet this place is quite warm for some unknown reason.

After retrieving all of my equipment, I looked around the place where we are currently. Despite being in a room, it is still basically a section of a cave. The only thing that made it look like a room is due to how the whole section of the cave has been converted to a place that doesn't feel damp or even hard to live in. It was like you are currently in some sort of underground base.

There is nothing much in here but what I noticed are the amount of weapons and armors attached on the cave's wall. Most of them are not even made from metal. Not only that but I also noticed some skulls of monsters being hanged on the wall like how many hunters hangs around the head of their first prey. I can easily tell it was the skull of the monsters due to how it looks different to any human skulls.

However, most of them are abnormal sizes that I can easily tell that some of them came from giant enemies. Just who was that man for him to be like this?
