Loser's redo: Transmigration in a novel-Chapter 206 Usurp And Reform

Feeling himself falling, Zick's consciousness, which was in a very pitiful state, activated his one and only soul skill — Usurp and reform.

With the amount of energy ravaging his body, it would take a while to regenerate his lost limbs.

'I have no choice but to take some risk....and with that attack, it felt like he was not trying to kill me.'

Zick moved towards the area where he felt the presence of lifeform.

The fortress appeared above him blocking the finishing attack launched by the demon lord. The rail gun began shooting rapidly at Reikel with no regard for the damage sustained.

The whole fortress shook as it came in contact with Reikel's attack, but it still held on for now.

Slowly, Zick's huge charred body reverted to human form. But the injuries still persisted, his whole body appeared bleeding and burnt in many places, and he was missing both of his arms too.

Such a figure exceedingly appeared weak, but everyone around Zick was right now frightened. It was because of the black miasma that swirled around him.

Involuntarily, every living being had a bad feeling in their heart.

As the black miasma moved around him, his body began regenerating.

At that moment, instantly a spear made of golden particles moved toward Zick.

'Just as expected, but it's too late.' Zick was not surprised by this spear at all.

Immediately one of his arms regenerated and he held the spear in one hand. The black miasma absorbed it in a blink of an eye.

This attack originated from Levienel, Zick had already expected her to betray him.

Seeing Leveinel bleeding from everywhere from the prize of breaking the contract, she had already died once and again reborn.

The moment Levienel met the demon lord, an agreement had been made between them.

Zick did not even turn to her, instead, he dashed toward the demon generals.

This made the demon generals all start to run away, but Yuriel and the other biological golems interrupted them with their respective strong attacks.

Zick appeared before them in no time, the moment the black miasma came in contact with them, they turned into the black miasma too, and became part of it.

Seeing the fortress moving away, Zick knew it had reached its limit, he hurried up.

The stone demon.

The great electro demon.

The water demon.

The death demon...

One by one, all of them became a part of the black miasma.

The miasma became so dense that it obscured Zick's figure.

Feeling the connection to his subordinate vanished, for the first time anger passed through Reikel's face. He kicked with anger, literally sending the fortress flying to the side.

Even the barrier around it had thousands of cracks in it. Many monuments upon it broke just from the pressure.

Zick had already regenerated by then, he began transforming into a dragon again.

"Yuriel, follow as per the plan," Zick said before devouring both units one and two at once.

"Yes sir." Yuriel turned to Levienel who was staring blankly.

Zick raced off to Reikel who also moved at lightning speed toward him. The black miasma which had already grown to a large degree seeped into Zick's body.

Zick's whole body turned into black miasma too, at once, it condensed into a ball.

Reikel in the form of a red flash clashed with the ball of black miasma with an unstoppable might.

BANG!

Within a second, the black miasma hit the ground from Reikel's clash.

A frown formed on Reikel's face, he looked at his fist: "There was resistance...?"

Before whenever Reikel hit Zick, it was always his overwhelming victory. But this time it was different, there was a tinge of pain on his fist and the feeling he got was different.

As the dust and debris settled, Zick's figure was exposed. A black robe made of miasma covered him and both of his eyes had turned into demonic pupils.

His soul ability — Usurp and reform. It worked in a very simple manner, absorbing anything with energy and then reforming it into one's body. There was a limit too, absorbing just too much might lead to failure, in other words, death. It was a double-edged sword that might lead to death if not used with care.

However, this ability had an overwhelming advantage. It could be perfectly controlled, Which meant, Zick could choose what to absorb and what not.

Thus, the inscription was still in Zick's body as a last trump card.

'Still, I am not a full match for the demon lord, but with this at least I can fight him for a while.'

Zick's strength would return to his original state once he fully uses all the energy he absorbed.

SCREECH!

The cursed sword flew into Zick's hand with a screeching sound. Black miasma entered the sword, directly destroying the 'will' within it. 𝘧𝚛𝗲𝘦𝚠𝙚𝙗𝙣o𝙫𝗲𝚕.𝐜o𝓂

At once, the black sword had a change. It began glowing in a red light, and its original ability that was being blocked was revealed.

It was nothing compared to how it was before, this sword was mythical grade, and it was not to be looked down on.

Zick's body reappeared at the same height as Reikel's.

Reikel, on the other hand, had a smile on his face: 'Just like that guy told me, this person would not die easily, well I have to capture him so it's not truly a bad thing.'

Reikel extended his hand to the side, a spear manifested in it. This spear appeared majestic with a red blade with a crescent design and crimson shaft.

Red particles danced around the spear, showing the joyful emotion being used by Reikel after a long time.

The mana in the surrounding began moving away while giving a wailing sound. The pressure generated around the area was destroying any mana that came in contact with it.

Holding the sword in one hand, Zick held it diagonally to his side while bending forward slightly. This was not his usual sword stance, it came from the memory of the Giant hero, Fuiren.

Both of their figures vanished, reappearing right before each other.

CLANG! CLANG! CLASH!

They exchanged blows using their weapons. Many cuts formed on Zick's body at once, but they vanished just as quickly as they came. His regenerative ability was showing its might at full this instant.

Even Reikel was amazed by such a sight. He had the upper hand, with not even a single cut on him.

The reason behind it was very simple, spear users could keep a certain distance from their opponent. If used correctly, they would be the biggest adversary of a sword user.

Zick's eyes squinted: 'I can't reach him like this...'

In just a few seconds, they had already exchanged hundreds of clashes, but Reikel always skillfully parried Zick's sword, not even allowing him to hit once.

...The amount of difference between their skills was just too high.

Zick used another one of his skills — Dark reality!

The black matter left his body, but instead of spreading, it coiled around Zick's body — strengthening him. He felt stronger, but he felt a lot of the stored energy used up.

Zick moved right into Reikel, not caring about defense at all. He attacked like a madman and did not even bother defending at all. He used all the parts of his body to attack, his leg, hand, teeth, or anything.

I lost my hand? No problem, I can regrow it!

Oh, I lost my leg? It's not a problem either, I can just regrow it too!

Ohh! My guts are spilling but that's not a problem at all!!

This kind of behavior made Reikel have a hard time too, most of his advantages were wasted, causing him to suffer some cuts too.

A sharp light passed by Zick's eyes: 'What the hell is his body made of? My sword can't go deeper than half a centimeter into his skin!'

Zick's sword was strengthened by his higher form of energy, dark substance, and even the black miasma. But the result was still despair-inducing.

"Enough playing around, Just give up now." Reikel waved his spear at Zick's sword, sending him flying multiple meters away.

Dozens of red shards manifested around Reikel, they all melted into the spear.

'It could be used in such a way too...' Zick's eyes shrank.

Zick became resolute too, he used another one of his original abilities. Black matters swirled around him and slowly entered his sword.

At once, both Zick and Reikel slashed their weapons at each other.

BOOM!!

Air pressure rose from between them, spreading to the surrounding area. One of the mountains in the distance was destroyed immediately.

"Hmm?" Surprise passed by Reikel's eyes. He saw how Zick absorbed around twenty percent of his attack's power and turned it into the black miasma. Then again, used that black miasma to strengthen his attack.

The cycle was just too vicious. If allowed to go on, all of Reikel's power would be used against him.

Zick did not dare to absorb this power, he was worried that his body might not be able to reform and die. Taking risks excessively was not good.

Reikel moved away and looked at Zick closely.

Silence spread around them, which was broken by Reikel.

" I will accept it, you are strong. You might even rise to godhood if given enough time. But..." Reikel's body blurred instantly.

Chills rose from deep within Zick's body, he wasn't able to follow Reikel's movement just now.

Before Zick could realize it, his body was cut in two from the hip area. He didn't even get the chance to resist.

"You are too early." Reikel spat out behind Zick.
