I Can Make Everything Level UP-Chapter 792: Eh, I don't want to
A large explosion happened, and Uvish's body trembled a little. At the same time, the targetted head exploded, and then the neck fell to the ground. Still, the neck soon regenerated, and Uvish started to attack again…
"At least it didn't split in two while regenerating…" Billy thought.
While he was dodging those attacks, Billy considered his options… he could make some clones and make them get the mana from that world before it explodes since Uvish's attacks were increasing the mana levels from there. He also could try to create an opening and then open a portal inside of the enemy's body and use his own attacks to explode everything… Billy's real body probably won't survive that. Those were the only things Billy could think of in that situation…
In the end, Billy had another idea… that certainly would make his mana last for an even shorter period of time. Still, he wouldn't gain anything by making the fight last longer. Billy summoned the aura of magic arms around his own, and they made them grow longer and sharper. After a few seconds, it looked like Billy had changed his arms for magic spears.
When Billy approached, he swung his arms and then made them split the beams of energy in two with their sharpness. Just as he had expected, he cut them without making them explode. However, a lot of mana has been used.
"I need to gather more mana from the surroundings…" Billy thought and then used his Personal Domain. He had to focus quite a lot to control the domain and make it only cover his lower half and not get in conflict with his magic blades.
For a second, as if he could feel that something had changed, Uvish stopped attacking, but soon he began to target Billy again, and this time, with five heads instead of two.
Billy cut two of those, but he was forced to block the others with the Blades. While the impact pushed him away for several meters, at least his domain absorbed some of that mana.
"If only I could find a way to combine all of those skills… Still, their natures are too opposite to each other, and it won't work," Billy thought.
Billy resumed his charge again, but when the next wave of attacks came, he flew backward a little. He trusted the Blades toward the explosion's epicenter. Before the energy could expand and cause all those problems, the blades stopped them, silently making the mana move in all directions silently…
"I guess it is like the negation effect that happens when the opposite sides of magnets get closer," Billy thought while he was a bit surprised. "The nature of that technique is to counter mana, and when mana is prevented from doing something before it happens, it loses its goal and returns to its original form… Of natural energy."
That was a great way to counter those beams. Still, things got harder when Billy got closer to the enemy. One of the heads of the Hydra began to emit a Poisonous gas that covered dozens of kilometers almost instantly. At the same time, the gravity increased, and Billy's mobility decreased. Uvish truly wasn't going to make things easier for him.
Still, Billy persisted and flew toward the enemy while blocking the next few beams of energy. However, the effects of gravity grew more powerful as he approached the enemy. Eventually, he could barely move, and then Uvish used ten heads to fire the energy beams. In the last second, Billy covered his entire body with the energy of his arms, and then he began to spin to gain more piercing speed. Thanks to that… he managed to fight back and keep moving forward despite the explosion.
Eventually, he reached the enemy's body, and then he began to cut off the necks of the Hydra. Unfortunately, after he cut five of those, he was smashed by massive whip-like attacks of ten other heads that joined together to attack him…
The surprise attack smashed Billy against the ground and caused a massive explosion due to the lava below the area. A red rain began to fall around thanks to it, but Uvish didn't feel a thing with his body. As for Billy, he was almost drowning in one of the lakes of lava that had erupted while semi-unconscious.
If it weren't for his barrier, he would have died… and while he survived, most of his mana was gone now. It reached a point that even the enraged Uvish could tell that he would no longer be much of a challenge.
"How can one person be so stubborn?" The spirit of order asked.
"He is trying to prove to himself that he decides his own destiny," The chaos spirit said. "He came to this world because of Uvish, and he wants to defeat him to show that he isn't his puppet."
"Billy, physical beings can only achieve so much," The time spirit said. "You have fought well and put Uvish against the wall many times. Insisting more than this will only put your life more in danger. Accept our help."
"Eh, I don't want to," Billy thought when he got up.
Billy left the lake of lava as fast as he could in order to save some of his remaining and pitiful mana. He couldn't deny that he was being more stubborn than usual. Still, while he was fighting for himself, Billy was also fighting for his family and friends, even if they couldn't help him. He was also fighting for the other humans that were brought to that world… he was fighting to show that none of their lives was set in stone, and they weren't pieces of Uvish's game.
When Billy landed, he saw Uvish staring at him with his one hundred or so eyes. He could sense anger in all of them but not even a bit of fear and respect. Uvish assumed that the fight was over.
