Versatile: Alternate World

Chapter 408 Expedition To The Frozen Region: Smite The Fallen

I wanted to curse after knowing why Almira is grinning but I also can't stop charging it up or I will be injured if I stopped halfway due to how it will try to backfire if it is done wrong.

"Gah! Painful! So painful as f*ck! AAAAHHHHH!"

I screamed at the top of my lungs as the pain just keeps escalating and as the amount of mana I am transferring is increasing, a headache is slowly developing and I can barely feel anything except for the pain. Yes, this is a game but because my device has a 100% synchronization rate, despite the pain being elevated, it will keep the experience identical. There is also no point in reducing the pain sensitivity as it will not even let you train your body and mind in that process.

Without any choice and without any idea when it will be fired, I keep on charging the Sealer of Gods without fail. It was painful but I have no choice anyway so might as well keep on going.

Despite the pain that is plaguing my whole body right now, I can see that Almira is not just observing things and waiting for the Sealer of Gods to finish charging, she is also doing her charging process into the [Smite of the Fallen]. If other people see this, they won't notice her doing it but to me who has already experienced many things ever since the last timeline, I can definitely tell that she is also doing the same thing but she is transferring it directly into the [Smite of the Fallen].

So even though she joked about the pain earlier, she is also doing the same thing to the ammunition itself, and since the Ammunition itself will be the one that will hit the Mistfall Turtle of the Damned so perhaps a great burden is also applied to her though I must just be imagining things.

The situation is getting tense and I can feel the pressure that is currently building up to all the soldiers and people involved in this expedition. After all, no one has ever experienced killing a behemoth like this and for the first time, they participated in a hunt that they don't know whether they can survive or not. It's all thanks to a certain blacksmith who fearlessly recommended doing this and now, we are actually doing it with everyone's lives on the line.

Almira seems to have noticed my weary and worried face as she gives a thumbs up to me. "We are almost done, just hang in there for a little while longer."

Sometimes, I wonder whether Almira is being serious or she is joking. I can't get a good read on her emotions and it is totally unpredictable.

? Then, while we are still charging, the Mistfall Turtle of the Damned retract itself inside its huge shell and started to release an enormous amount of violet fumes that I dubbed as the Mistfall. And it seems like it didn't even have any intention of just stopping, it keeps on pouring out as if it was storing those violet fumes inside its shell and its just waiting for the right time to release all of it.

"Everyone! Cover your noses! That violet fart is poisonous and can kill you all of if you breath on it! Don't directly inhale it!"

"Wait, what? What do you mean fart?" I was confused for a second after I heard Almira said those words and my mind seemed to have slowed down the process. Not only that, it seemed to have numbed down the pain that I felt when she said that those violet fumes that the Mistfall Turtle of the Damned releases frequently is its fart.

"I am telling you, it is a fart believe me or not. However, it is not a funny topic as this thing is just a deadly smoke to all of us. Once it reaches our lungs, it has a big chance to melt our lungs to the most baddest condition and despite not smoking excessively or did not even have any experience in smoking, you will end up suffering like a regular smoker do."

That is nasty, not only it was a fart, it was a deadly fart. The fart that I thought to be just normal fumes regularly released by this monster started to cover our surroundings and we have to resort to different methods of covering our noses just to avoid that violet fart.

Soon, it disperses and disappeared and from the looks of it, the Mistfall Turtle of the Damned is not yet going to go out just yet but use the shell to attack. I thought we are not going to be able to do anything on that but Almira started laughing when the damnable turtle started doing that.

"Hahahahaha! Finally, you piece of crap of a monster finally did the move I am waiting for! Bladeheart! You can stop charging the Sealer of Gods! It is time to finish this!"

I stopped releasing the mana in my body and the Sealer of Gods started glowing in blue, as for the [Smite of the Fallen], dark aura starts to envelop it and before it and just by looking at it, you would even suspect it was made as an evil weapon. However, it is indeed a very nasty weapon.

Almira aimed the Sealer of Gods. She sets the trajectory to it and although I am not too sure what she was doing, it seems she is already able to calculate how to accurately hit the behemoth without any interruptions. When the shell started to spin slowly, Almira grinned and pressed the trigger of the Sealer of Gods.

"Let's have an exchange you damnable turtle! I hit you with my [Smite of the Fallen]. you give me your body parts as my ingredients! NOW DIE!"

It was a quick split second because before I can even blink, the shell that is spinning slowly stopped and suddenly cracked into two pieces. I don't know if I was just dreaming or I am hallucinating due to the pain I felt in my body but it seems that it was indeed what happened. I just collapsed into the carriage and decided to fall asleep for now. As much as I want to stay awake, the toll of losing so much mana in one go and being supplied continuously is not something I would like to keep happening to me, it was a big torture that I am certain that if it took longer than that, I might have already collapsed.

...

...

On the other side of the Carriage where Queen Tanya and Queen Tori are currently riding, they witness the shell of the Mistfall Turtle of the Damned split into two. Not only the shell but even the turtle itself was divided into two pieces of carcass. It was so big that even if all the people in Queen Tori's kingdom would eat the meat, they might not be able to even finish it for at least a decade or more due to the excessive size of it.

"They actually did it, those madlads actually did it," Queen Tanya was in a sheer disbelief seeing what happened. After all, she doubted that Almira can defeat that behemoth in one shot, it was very impossible and Almira seems to be a braggadocio to her first impression. Who would have thought that she would be proven wrong about that?

The whole place became quiet after the death of the Mistfall Turtle of the Damned, the soldiers who were always on the edge seems to have managed to calm down after they have experienced the horrifying experience. It was something they have experienced that they didn't want to experience again but they are also happy that they have something they can brag about to those who are not participants of their expedition.

"So, what are we going to do to the carcass? I know that is the first purpose on why we killed it in the first place?" Queen Tanya looked at Queen Tori.

"I have no idea. As much as I want to also know, the only one who knows that should be Almira herself. However, we should just let them rest. They have done a good job on killing it."

However, that was actually unnecessary as Almira went down from the carriage and started to head to the carriage of the blacksmiths who were among them. Not only them but also the soldiers who were not part of the frontlines to gather up. It seems it is time to butcher the giant cadaver.

I slowly woke up and I realized that I am currently not in the carriage. Instead, I found myself in the middle of a flower field. I don't recognize the flowers but they smell quite good. I looked around and I quickly know that I am still in the game so I opened the menu to check where I was but I was welcomed with a bunch of question marks on it meaning even the game system have no idea where I was.

In the distance, a large tree that seems to be branching into the sky is towering in the distance.
