I Can Make Everything Level UP

Chapter 597 Manipulator (1)

　　 The manipulator suddenly jumped and fell on the ground as fast as he could before he punched it and raised a massive dust cloud. Although he couldn’t talk, he still could use his head relatively well. Icarus began to run around to make the dust disperse as quickly as possible. Still, then the enemy suddenly targeted Meryl, and he tried to cover for her, only for Icarus to be surprised when the manipulator changed his focus to him. He just punched the air, but the blast sent Icarus flying to the wall. Despite his innate skill, the enemy was surprisingly pretty well-balanced when it comes to his parameters.

Before he could fall, the manipulator kicked his stomach and made him spit a mouthful of blood… Lucyna hurried to increase Meryl’s power, and then she fired some extra arrows. The manipulator blocked those with the back of his hands again… the damage was piling up, and so was the aura of the enemy.

”I guess they were a bad match up…” Billy thought. “Against a hybrid type of warrior that uses a type of debuff magic in the area, someone that can fire magic from a distance should be a better option. His debuff is only powerful because his innate skills are at max level, after all.”

Those two gained some time for Icarus to recover. Still, he couldn’t do much in that kind of situation. That being said, Billy could tell that he hadn’t lost his fighting spirit and that he had a card up his sleeve, just like Lucyna. Still, considering that he had already tried to use an extra charged attack using his speed, it was hard to say what he could do…

Still, Icarus disappeared again, but Billy could feel his mana around. He was only running in circles on that part of the dungeon for whatever reason. Still, that made the manipulator raise his guard. If his brain wasn’t working, his instincts weren’t slacking off, and that had been a good decision. With the pulling force of a tornado, Icarus eventually returned and knocked down everyone with his speed alone before hitting the manipulator.

The supersonic punch sent the manipulator flying to the distance. At the same time, it cracked his chin and then made it spin in the air uncontrollably. After his body hit the wall, the entire dungeon began to tremble… it was amazing that such a place could withstand so much damage. That punch probably had been powerful enough to take down a titan. Still, it came with a cost… for the first time, Icarus wounded his body after using his speed. His right arm probably had all of its bones broken since Icarus fell on his knees and then pulled the gauntlet. It was completely broken and swelling like crazy.

”I will be out for a bit… I don’t think this was enough to take him down,” Icarus said and then headed to where Billy was killing tyrants and cooking their hearts. “Can I eat one of these?”

”Sure, whatever,” Billy said.

Billy was feeling generous since that moron taught him something good that he could do with that skill. In any case, the manipulator sure felt that hit since he was taking his time to recover, and Meryl was using that chance to fill his body with arrow wounds, but it was hard to say if she was killing or putting more fuel on the fire.

When the Manipulator got up, Icarus hurried up and finished the fried tyrant’s heart. It seemed that he was about to repeat the same thing as before, and Billy knew that it wasn’t a good idea. He had recovered his health, but his arm still was recovering from the damage.

”You will destroy your arm,” Billy said.

”I can make it heal later. Besides, I am sure we will have some time to prepare for the next battle after this one,” Icarus said.

Billy wasn’t as hopeful as Icarus, but he sure wished for the same. After that mission, he wanted to take at least a six-month vacation from all sorts of trouble. Regardless, Billy sighed, and then he used Regen a few times on Icarus. In the blink of an eye, his arm was healed, and he also had some extra to wreck his arm again if he so wished for it.

”Go and damage him a bit more before kicking the bucket. You need to make the fight easier for me,” Billy said.

”Hahaha, I might be able to defeat him like this, so maybe you won’t fight in the end,” Icarus said. “Well, thanks for the help. I will make sure not to let the others hurt. It would damage my male pride.”

”Of all things one could think during a fight…” Billy said and then sighed.

Icarus attempted the same technique as before, but this time, the manipulator was ready to receive the hit when it came. He lowered his stance and crossed his arms to protect his vitals. In the end, the dungeon trembled again, and the enemy got hit in the head, and his neck almost snapped. Despite all that, the manipulator managed to grab Icarus’ arm… he found his main weakness. He couldn’t move at his stop speed if something was holding him Back.

Icarus tried to escape the enemy’s grip, but the manipulator didn’t let him move that much. The bones of his arms were also cracking due to the sheer power of the enemy. Meryl used that chance to fire some arrows on that guy’s head, and while some of those that hit his cheek pierced a little his flesh, the others turned into dust.

In the next moment, the manipulator jumped and then kicked Icarus’ face with both of his feet and without letting go of his arms. That hurt more than a little bit since Icarus fell unconscious after taking the full power of that. His eyes turned white, and just another one of those would kill him…
