Just monts earlier, while Lomor was fighting Roya—
Kanzaki Rei had already established a ntal link with Kumironi.
From her, he obtained a detailed analysis of Lomor’s biological structure.
The transmission of thought was instantaneous.
And Kumironi’s analysis was precise to an extre.
Her mastery over life sciences was nearly on the level of Izparut of the Life System.
Combining her information—
Rei comprehended a new spell.
A spell of the Life System.
[Tier 5 Magic: Oceanic Expanse Tier 5 Magic: Flesh Reconstruction]
The fusion of these two spells—
Ford:
[Tier 5 Life Magic: Life Extension (LV: 501)]
It linked magic directly to the opponent’s physical body—
Turning the spell itself into a component of that body.
At first glance, it seed like nothing more than the creation of a new spell—sothing Rei was already accustod to.
But in truth—
What he had created this ti...
Was not part of any existing magical system.
In the current classification of magic—
There was no such category as Life Magic.
Rei had just created an entirely new branch of magic.
Under normal circumstances—
Such a leap wouldn’t happen so quickly.
He wouldn’t imdiately grasp a transformation at this level.
But—
His Tier 3 Root Magic had already granted him the insight of "The Body Is the Spell."
He had long possessed the foundational concept of turning the body into magic.
And his Tier 4 Root Magic—
Had granted him mastery over material transformation.
All the groundwork had already been laid.
What remained—
Was ti to think.
And ti—
Was the one thing Rei never lacked.
BZZZT—
Even within stopped ti, his consciousness did not halt.
Within the simulated battles of his mind—
Rei fought Lomor again and again.
The more he observed—
The more abilities he understood—
The more complete his internal model of the battle beca.
By now, there was no anger left in his eyes.
Only calm.
He gazed at the blood sea below.
It boiled—
Burning with golden Holy Fla.
Lomor’s Ti of Death continued to be consud.
Rei stood with his sword resting behind him.
His gaze carried quiet dominance.
"...I’ve gained quite a lot from this."
Though it was not truly its body being burned—
The pain still transmitted to Lomor—
As if it had attached an external, artificial body.
Damage to that false body—
Beca damage to the true self.
"Human!"
"I spared your life, yet you pursue relentlessly!"
"I will rember your face today!"
BOOM!
Rei felt the entire space tremble.
His gaze snapped toward the distance—
Sensing an invisible fluctuation racing away.
It was fleeing.
Spouting threats—
While running.
Heh...
But after fleeing several million kiloters in just a second or two—
Its body suddenly froze.
"...Hiss..."
"So this is... what a monster’s body feels like?"
Ugh—
Lomor suddenly felt overwhelming nausea.
Its previously formless body forcibly re-materialized—
Condensing into physical form as it began to retch violently.
"Don’t throw up..."
But when it spoke—
The voice was not its own.
"Ugh—!"
Lomor clutched its throat, feeling its body spiral out of control.
Damn it!
That human—
He’s inside my body?!
Roya!
But during the devouring process—
There had been no sign of anything abnormal!
"You shouldn’t just eat things randomly. That’s basic common sense, right?"
"If it were , I wouldn’t eat it."
Lomor spoke—
But the words were Roya’s.
BANG!
BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG—!
Suddenly—
Lomor’s body began punching itself violently!
"You ate ? You ate ? You ate ?!"
After a barrage of blows—
Its body was left battered and torn.
"There, that settles it. We’re even now."
Inside Lomor—
Chaos churned.
But soon—
Its body began rapidly regenerating.
Not as instantaneously as Rei’s—
But still visibly repairing itself.
"Hmm... let see... your weakness..."
"Oh? It’s in your lair?"
From Roya’s perspective—
He stood before a massive, beating heart.
He was inside a bizarre, abstract space of darkness and red—
A distorted realm like a dreamscape—
Or a Picasso painting.
"8th-Tier Chaos Arcana — Existence Deconstruction."
In Roya’s vision—
Everything existed as abstract concepts.
The deconstructed world no longer followed conventional laws.
Here—
Speed was not necessarily speed—
But could instead be represented as length.
A wooden ruler appeared in his hand.
The longer the ruler—
The faster he beca.
By stretching it like a rubber band—
He could increase his speed.
But due to the limits of his arm span—
He couldn’t extend it infinitely.
And beyond speed—
Everything in existence—
All definitions—
Had transford into abstract concepts.
When he had been "eaten" earlier—
From his perspective—
He had simply walked through a wide passage into Lomor’s body.
"So I have to find your lair to kill you completely, huh? That’s troubleso."
"Get out of my body!"
"Nope~ I just made a new friend, and he promised sothing. I really want to see it."
"What are you even talking about?!"
"He said that if I helped stall you..."
"He’d show how a Level 5 Ascended kills an 8th-tier monster."
"I thought that sounded pretty interesting. So I wanted to watch."
Lomor’s body twisted—
Turning against its will.
It began moving back toward Rei.
And it didn’t even need to go far.
During the delay—
Golden flas had already spread across the abyss like a blazing backdrop.
WHOOSH—
Rei had also gained a deeper understanding of the divine artifact.
It didn’t strictly require direct strikes.
Holy Fla could be transmitted through light-based magic.
Using light as a dium—
In just over ten seconds—
Rei had already closed the distance.
"A Level 5 Ascended?"
"Kill ?!"
"What a joke!"
"Your attacks are nothing but a tickle!"
BOOM!
Lomor’s body ignited once more with golden flas.
This was only a fragnt of its body—
Only a portion of flesh.
To truly kill it—
One would have to reach the heart hidden within its 8th-tier nest.
What right did he have to claim he could kill it?
With that pathetic magic?
With that one divine artifact?
"A parasite relying on external power dares to speak of killing ?! Without that weapon, what are you worth?!"
Unable to escape—
Lomor’s fury erupted.
Rei, however, calmly observed its Ti of Death.
At this mont—
Only 300 years remained.
