I Save The World In A Doomsday Text Game Chapter 226-2: Slaying Asura, An Invitation from Iya Palace

A spark of understanding flashed through Lin Xun’s mind, he instantly grasped the boss’s chanics.

Asura’s wrathful head controlled the two weapon-wielding arms, while the joyous head controlled the arms holding the fan and bell.

With the wrathful head destroyed, the two weapon arms could only be forcibly manipulated by the joyous head, resulting in these hopelessly uncoordinated attacks.

And the monster’s healing required the bell-wielding arm to channel the ability. If he could sever that arm and cut off its recovery, he’d be able to bring this boss down.

Or, while the wrathful head was still regrowing, he could strike off the joyous head, then the fight would be won.

[The onmyoji had finished their spells. Countless bright yellow ofuda ignited without fla, the dense tadpole-script runes twisting together into masses of pitch-black karmic fire.]

[The monster’s body was set alight by the searing flas, its hide blistering and splitting open as the stench of scorched flesh spread.]

[Extre Evil Asura let out ceaseless, pained howls. It waved the cypress fan as the joyous head chanted, and the giant spear glowed black.]

[It twisted its trunk with a mighty heave and hurled the massive spear!]

[The black spear plunged like a falling teor, straight for the onmyoji at the rear of the formation…]

[In an instant, gore sprayed in all directions. The onmyoji never even had ti to scream before they were obliterated.]

[Unlike the hardy samurai, the onmyoji had frail bodies. Even those who were farther from the impact did not escape death.]

[As most of the onmyoji perished, their shikigami on the front lines dissolved one by one.]

[The wounded samurai charging in the vanguard, now deprived of shikigami support, were soon overwheld by the monster’s attacks, horses and n alike sent flying, the ground strewn with the dead.]

[Far from the monster, you spoke the final syllable of your incantation!]

[Endless brilliant starlight converged before you…]

[The starlight, laden with destructive power, compressed into a single point, then burst forth in blinding radiance. Like a supernova erupting, it unleashed the full might of a falling star!]

[The star descended upon the colossal monster, engulfing nearby samurai who could not escape its brilliance.]

[The monster’s agonized shrieks echoed through the city…]

[You felt a wave of fatigue…]

[You raised your palm. The Stored Spell Treasure Ring shone brightly…]

[Two pure white spears shot forth like thunderbolts, plunging into the blinding starfire!]

[This grand and dazzling spell drew countless eyes, fleeing civilians, the remaining samurai, and the few surviving onmyoji alike…]

[Just as all eyes were fixed on you, a radiant beam of sunlight flashed past, as if a golden blazing sun had descended. The light was so piercing that people reflexively squeezed their eyes shut, tears streaming from the searing pain.]

[…]

[When all the light finally died and the dust settled…]

[The monstrous body was in a pitiful state. Of its four massive arms, only the fan-wielding limb remained. The joyous head, struck by the sunbeam, had been completely blasted apart.]

[Had the wrathful head not finished regenerating in the final mont, the creature would already be dead.]

“Still alive?”

Lin Xun was a little surprised, but then understood.

Asura now had only the wrathful head left, and the remaining arm, the fan arm, was ‘incompatible’ with it.

Though the cypress fan arm could still channel spells, without the recovery skill, the boss could no longer heal itself.

To think it could kill him now with a single, mismatched arm’s magic was nothing but a fool’s dream.

In short, bringing down this boss was only a matter of ti.

[On the battlefield, the few surviving samurai and onmyoji looked at the battered monster, so near death, then at you, the one who had saved them in their hour of desperation.]

[They ceased attacking the monster, unwilling to sacrifice themselves for nothing, and instead conserved their strength as they moved cautiously closer to you.]

“Trying to slack off before the fight’s over?”

Now that the monster was about to die, if he didn’t squeeze the last value out of these ‘allies,’ it would be a waste in this cursed ga.

Lin Xun narrowed his eyes and issued a decisive command.

[Battle Angel – Valkyrie flipped her wrist, making the golden longbow vanish. In its place appeared a bizarre lantern wrought of flesh.]

[Not even the blazing afternoon sun could drown out the soft warmth that lantern emitted.]

[With a beat of her wings, she carried the monster’s baleful gaze as she dove into the samurai ranks…]

[You raised your staff, chanting a long and intricate incantation once more…]

[Extre Evil Asura crushed the cypress fan in its remaining hand. Black mist poured from its body.]

[Its eyes fixed only on that faint warm light. The wrathful head roared madly as it charged without hesitation at the blood-soaked samurai.]

[The grievous wounds all over its body greatly slowed its movents. But even so, the samurai, only flesh and blood, could not flee in ti.]

[While the giant feet stamped down, the Valkyrie flitted and wove between them. The samurai were swiftly reduced to sars of flesh.]

[The last few samurai scattered in panic, but the Valkyrie ‘guided’ them straight into the monster’s path, where they too t their end.]

[Seeing that no samurai remained alive, the Valkyrie lifted her wings, preparing to fly toward the surviving onmyoji…]

[Your incantation was complete…]

[Brilliant starlight again swept across Fukoka Castle, subrging the monster’s titanic form!]

[When the radiance faded, the enormous, headless corpse crashed to the ground.]

[You have defeated Extre Evil Asura. A massive amount of experience points has been gained!]

[The power within your shell begins to boil. The shell of the Knowledge-Seeking President of the Direct Vision Association has leveled up. Current shell level: 60.]

[You have obtained Asura’s Special Spirit Essence *1.]

[You have obtained Complete Forging Crystal Chunk *1.]

[You have obtained Asura’s Rosary Beads (Material).]

[You have obtained Core of Extre Evil (Special Item).]

[You have obtained Shifting Suru Seed (Legendary-Grade Item).]

[You looked upon the massive, terrifying headless corpse…]

[Shell of Extre Evil Asura: A monstrous entity created from a trace of malice leaked by a powerful deity. Its true body was the fusion of the Ishiyama Shrine’s martial arts proficient high priest and its devout chief priest. Limited by the power of two mortal vessels, Asura could not fully wield the deity’s malice. It died when its head was blasted apart by an overwhelming spell.]

Lin Xun let out a long breath.

At last, he’d toppled this big boss.
