Novel Full Chapter 58.2
[Moving to A75 world line]
****
I killed him, I killed him again, I killed him all over again.
The system clearly said there was a way to kill the main character who had a power of Infinite Loop. So at first, I made a strategy to kill him until he regressed into a baby.
But…
[The Protagonist Adonen invokes the skill ‘Designated Return (URS)’ and returns to 11 hours and 1 minutes ago.]
[Current date: Imperial Calendar, February 18, Year 712 Current time: 8:13…]
Jijik!
[Current date……]
The Return point of Adonen’s regression was fixed.
[February 18, Year 712. 8:13 a.m.]
Adonen went back to that exact time every time he died. And for every time he died, our contact time became more and more further than before.
‘Should I capture him and raise him until he’s old enough to die from a natural cause?’
I could cut his limbs and gag his mouth to prevent him from killing himself, but….
Raising him means I had to feed him something. It wasn’t a plausible plan because he would bite me as soon as he opened his mouth to eat the feed.
Because of his ‘Pattern analyzing’ he’s able to read my attack more and more perfectly, making it harder for me to deal with him.
Of course it would be easier to deal with him if I used a weapon unfamiliar to him.
[Moving to A98 world line.]
But then, there wouldn’t be any reason to hunt him repeatedly(?)
[Moving to A99 world line.]
“You fucker. You aren’t helpful for my growth.”
Just like that, I’ve killed him more than 20 times and moved on to the 99th world line.
‘Adonen was also mentally exhausted.’
But that didn’t mean much. Because I was getting tired too.
Unlike Adonen who rested on an 11-hour interval, I fought him constantly. That’s why I had to take the ether blade out again. I was exhausted enough to not care about his ‘Sword robbing’ skill.
However, this body that had lived on the battlefield for more than 10 years wouldn’t crumble that easily.
[Moving to A100 world line.]
And now, I’m moving to the 100th world line.
….
….
….
“He’s not coming?”
Adonen no longer came to find me.
****
The next day arrived
I couldn’t rent any room because I didn’t have any money of this world. I took out a bread from my inventory and ate it. I’m glad to have something to eat even though I am homeless.
[Current date: Imperial Calendar, 19 February, Year 712. Current time: 7:19]
The sky was still dark. The sunrise time of this world seemed to be one hour later than that on the earth.
From the way he looked at me every time we fought, I thought he’d come back anytime. But, throughout the night, Adonen didn’t come at all. He probably thought that fighting me wasn’t helpful to him because I rarely used the ether blade.
It was a good thing to have enough time to think by myself. But the problem is, I still didn’t have enough clue on how to kill a person with a regression ability who returned infinitely every time they died.
In the first place, is it possible to kill him physically?
‘His mental strength isn’t particularly strong…’
When I went to the center of the city with that thought in my head, I found Adonen challenging a tall female swordsman who was likely to be 180cm tall.
“Crazy bastard, he was meaninglessly active.”
Tang! Tang!
Level 51 Protagonist, Adonen and the female swordsman.
It was not a fight but a one-side beatdown. The female swordsman was too strong for Adonen.
Just by shaking her sword lightly with one hand, Adonen was slammed to the ground. But Adonen always stood again and rushed towards the female swordsman. As if Adonen were asking her to kill him.
It was so obvious to me because I knew his skills, but it didn’t seem to make sense for the female swordsman.
“You are weak. Devote yourself more and come find me when you are stronger.”
In the first place, the female swordsman looked like she had no intention of killing a novice like Adonen. She used the side of the sword to slap the rushing Adonen on his cheek.
“Keuk.”
Adonen flew and crashed to the ground. Perhaps, because of the impact he couldn’t get up. He was breathing heavily on the floor.
However, the female swordsman’s face hardened.
[Supporting actor Misclean invokes skill ‘Strong Sword of Blood (SS).]
“You have such a strong will.”
“Hook, hok…”
The sun rose before in the sky.
[Current date: Imperial Calendar, February 19, Year 712 Current time: 8:49.]
Adonen laughed silently as he looked at the sun that rose in the sky.
And suddenly, he jumped at the female swordsman.
Swoosh!
….. His throat was cutted. He died.
Looking at the scene in front of me, I could only shake my head.
‘Looks like I have to wait for another day to meet him.’
[The Protagonist Adonen invokes the skill ‘Designated Return (URS)’ and returns to 0 hours and 1 minutes ago.]
Adonen regressed once again.
[Current date: Imperial Calendar, February 19, Year 712 Current time: 8:49….]
Ting!
[Current date: Imperial Calendar, February 19, Year 712 Current time: 8:50.]
“…….Hm?”
Something is wrong….
It’s 19th? Not 18th?
When I came back to my senses the duel repeated once again. It was the scene where Adonen was running towards Misclean.
His throat was once again slitted by Misclen.
[The Protagonist Adonen invokes the skill ‘Designated Return (URS)’ and returns to 0 hours and 1 minute ago.]
[The protagonist, Adonen, activates ‘Swordsmanship robbing(SS)’ Skill.]
[Progress: 3.97%]
He ran again and he died again.
[The Protagonist Adonen invokes the skill ‘Designated Return (URS)’ and returns to 0 hours and 2 minutes ago.]
[The protagonist, Adonen, activates ‘Swordsmanship robbing(SS)’ Skill.]
[Progress: 4.13%]
He ran again…
He died again…
[The Protagonist Adonen invokes the skill ‘Designated Return (URS)’ and returns to 0 hours and 7 minutes ago.]
[The protagonist, Adonen, activates ‘Swordsmanship robbing(SS)’ Skill.]
[Progress: 5.79%]
Adonen charges and then Misclean slits his throat.
Those scenes were repeated for several dozen of times in just a few minutes.
On one side, there was a protagonist with a regression skill who had become stronger after dying for so many times. He was capable of fighting a prolonged battle.
While on the other side, there was a supporting character who lost her strength everytime she killed the protagonist.
“What the hell….”
Misclean looked haggard. Her swordsmanship became slower than ever. The swordsmanship that feels as light as a feather had become as rigid as a steel bar.
She tried to swing her sword with all her might, but her movement had noticeably slowed down. She looked like she was gradually forgetting how to wield a sword.
[Moving to A134 World line.]
As time went by, Misclean became shorter for an unknown reason, her muscles also slowly disappeared. On the contrary, Adonen’s muscles grew much bigger than before.
This situation was the result of the protagonist’s correction.
The supporting actor, misclean, was probably one of the strongest characters in this world.
Adonen, who happens to meet such a strong character, grew rapidly as he stole the power of the supporting character.
If things kept going on like this, Adonen would surely overwhelm Misclen. And after the 100th circle, the victor would be decided.
‘But, I wouldn’t let it happen.’
I got up from my seat and loaded a bullet to the mega shooter.
The weaknesses of Loop-Type regression had already been identified.
