I Am the Only Non-Returner - I Am the Only Non-Returner chapter 126

126 – Unspoken Conversation

Part of my upper body, including my face.

One of the most powerful creatures seen in the dimensional gap. It turned into a black snake.

A terrible poisonous scent rose up my esophagus, and for a moment I felt like I was going to lose my mind.

He quickly converted the magic power he had gathered into poison and vomited it all over Rosherdin’s upper body.

Chaaa!!

I think it was a change that happened in a split second, so maybe he didn’t react properly?

Or did the pre-planned build-up work?

In any case, it was enough to cover Rosherdin’s body, so he couldn’t even fight back after being attacked, so he just shook his body like crazy in that position.

Chwiiiiik-!!

From Rosherdin’s poisoned body, black smoke, so thick that it was ominous to look at, constantly rose into the sky.

But even though he was subjected to a ridiculous attack, Rosherdin instead chose to move forward.

“I expected that too.”

Because I had unlocked Suzy’s [One Path] Trait in advance, I ducked into the door without hesitation.

Kwaaang!!

Rosherdin’s heavy attack was delivered the moment the door was closed.

“Still, it can’t be destroyed. It’s weaker than the Blue Dragon’s Breath.”

I, who had used up the remaining 10% of my magic power in using the characteristics of Polymorph and Suzy, took a moment to catch my breath in that space.

“I wonder how long it took to maintain this. It’s difficult.”

But I had to get out as soon as I recovered the minimum amount of magical power.

That monstrous shield would run wild for a long time even after being covered in poison, and if our team were to be targeted first, it would be difficult to hold on.

“It would be unfair if I went through all this trouble and didn’t get any compensation.”

It was a short but intense battle.

If I lie down and rest, my recovery will be much faster, but I felt like I would collapse right away if my back hit the floor, so I slowly walked towards the door on the other side.

Huuu ㅡ

I sighed loudly and opened the door again and came out, but as soon as I got out, something flew at me with incredible speed and hit me.

Taaang!!

Ugh!

Rocherdin, whose upper body had been shriveled to the point of being unrecognizable, showed his teeth as sharp as saw blades and continued to strike like crazy.

‘Crazy! Is an attack like this possible in this state?!!

A series of strikes continued with such ridiculous speed and destructive power that it made me curse inside.

It was box fighting and sword fighting, and this moment was meaningless. This is because each fist he threw out, risking his all, came like a mountain.

‘Big…’

I had no choice but to tighten my guard and endure, nailed to the stadium wall.

Boom!! Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!!

‘What are the other guys doing?! ‘Don’t hit the guy with his back exposed.’

I had that question for a moment, but before I knew it, my shield, which was in the millions, had all melted and I had reached the point where my vital strength was being reduced.

One second felt like an eternity.

I have to grit my teeth and hold on and hold on and hold on again.

His clear will beats on his chest without stopping.

How far can you overcome? It seemed like he was asking

.

When you answer that question, he asks another question.

We had many conversations while looking into each other’s eyes.

And at some point, Rosherdin’s speed noticeably decreased and a gap began to appear, and I also took the opportunity and started punching him.

I was worried about my physical strength, but wasn’t there a trait that was waiting for this moment?

Hard exoskeleton (advanced)

– No worries even if the shield comes off. A shell is created and its strength is increased by 400%.

– [Hard exoskeleton] Works synergistically with Rihlimo full armor pieces.

– The efficiency of [Hard Exoskeleton] Increases to 800%.

The full armor that covered my outer layer, like skin, began to swell significantly and harden even more.

All parts of the face except the eyes, nose, and mouth were covered with an exoskeleton, transforming into an appearance reminiscent of a black knight.

Boom! Boom! Quang! Kwa-kwa-kwang-!

I already forgot about the upright posture.

I just swung like crazy using the characteristic [Swing Wildly].

Thanks to the hard exoskeleton, the rate at which physical strength falls has been significantly slowed.

“uuuch!! Rosherdine—!!”

aaa!!

My fist, which was actually the difference between victory and defeat, pierced his abdomen.

Spooky―

Seeing his smile spread, I got goosebumps all over my body.

My body stiffened, I received dozens more attacks from him, and the game was decided by one person who stopped at some point.

“Rosherdin…”

“······ Ugh······.”

Rosherdin’s fist melted to the point that it could no longer function.

Although his eyes were small and degenerated, he blinked as he looked at me with eyes filled with indescribable wisdom.

Although the bridge of his nose felt sore for some reason, I looked straight into his eyes and spoke.

“I learned a lot…”

Rocherdin nodded his head slightly at the words I blurted out, and eventually his eyes closed and he knelt on the floor.

It is unknown what story caused him to end up like this.

For some reason, anger boiled up from deep within.

But the message resonated regardless of my feelings.

“Complete extinction…”

This is what we saw in the three choices that were thrown to us when the baby was born, before the [Great Beings] Reset the stage.

Rosherdin, who was explained as unable to return or reincarnate, chose complete extinction.

I don’t know what that means.

At least it would be better than continuing to suffer as a part of the game like this.

Ha…

When I struggled to get out from being stuck in the wall, my teammates ran over and hugged me.

Starting with Hyuna, Haeun and Isabella Lingling. Go Okja sprinkled the potion on my body without saying a word.

Looking around, we were the only players left alive.

Apparently, the event was supposed to last until only one team remained, but I didn’t know why they let them fight with Rosherdin until the end.

But it was clear that he shook my heart and awakened me.

“Let’s go back. Home.”

* * *

＜······ 100 Bottles of [Hermona’s Heavenly Elixir] Will be given as a reward to ‘Team Doggy’ who placed first.＞

– Oooh······!!

– As expected, we took first place!!

As soon as I returned to the shelter, I first heard the cheers of my teammates.

– Phew… I’m glad.

– I was so stupid that I couldn’t bear it…

The uncle let out a huge sigh of relief, and Euncheol was blaming himself.

No matter what I say now, it won’t be able to comfort them.

I nodded as I looked at their complicated and tangled inner thoughts.

Sometimes it’s better to just sit back and watch.

I spent a few minutes chatting with the people who stayed in the shelter about the event and laughing.

Hermona’s Heavenly Elixir

– Even if they are not divine beings, there are people who possess great power. [Hermona] Is a world filled with good people whose footsteps throughout their lives have left an extremely positive influence.

The pure water that came out of their bodies gathered together to form a small lake.

– The effect varies depending on the goodness level of the user.

The effects of the elixir provided were confirmed one by one.

“Oh my… I shouldn’t eat this? LOL”

From Noble mtl dot com

My uncle said with a wide smile.

Pisik-

“If you think about it that way, how many good people are there among us? How many have we killed?”

That is also true.

No matter how much they attack us and call us monsters, we all now know that they were humans in their past life.

In fact, we are all murderers.

“Anyway, we are given 100 bottles, so we each have to drink one bottle.”

Suzy said as she looked at 100 bottles wrapped in very luxurious silk material neatly placed on the floor.

“Shall we take out 18 bottles first and put the rest in the refrigerator?”

Then Hong Seol shook his head and answered.

“If you put it in the refrigerator, doesn’t it get weird? It feels like something doesn’t fit with modern civilization…”

“Is that so? Then should we buy another room and put it there?”

In the end, I bought a room and a cupboard and stored them neatly in a corner, like a shrine.

When I unwrapped the package, a transparent bottle half the size of my palm was filled with a colorless liquid with a soft glow.

“I certainly wouldn’t have given something that had no effect as the first prize. Let’s get started first.”

“Then, since the Shelter Leader is the highlight, who wants to do it last and drink it first?”

I don’t know why I was the highlight, but for now, I just watched as people did.

At first, we decided to do it by lottery, but then we thought, “Why bother so much?” And said, “Whoever wants to eat it should eat it.” In the end, we decided to do it in order of age.

“Uncle~ Churai Churai.”

Kahi and Eunchae’s eyes became half-moon and cheered for their uncle.

“K-K-K-Hmm- why am I so nervous?”

Hugs-

Because it was an unusually large event reward in the latter half of the stage, my uncle’s hand was shaking a little as he opened the lid.

Gulp-gulp-

My uncle’s neck moved up and down as he took one shot without hesitation.

Kyaha-

“This tastes a bit…”

“What does it taste like?”

“Kuhmm… Strawberry flavor?”

·········?

Did the liquid that came out of the bodies of good people taste like strawberries?!

Ha-eun also became very interested in her uncle’s remark about the taste of strawberries.

But white light suddenly fell from the sky and rained down on my uncle.

“Hmm? Ah! My eyes!!”

Of course, my uncle got hit in the eye.

He immediately sat down on the ground and covered his face with his arms.

“Be careful with your eyes. Memo.”

Euncheol nodded and looked at his uncle with interest.

And then my uncle knelt down and spoke in a trembling voice.

“What is this?!!”

ㅡ!!!

Is there something big changing? New abilities? Significantly increased abilities?

“My hair!! My hair is growing!!”

“······ Huh?”

Now that I thought about it, I noticed something fluffy growing on my uncle’s head, which was clearly visible on the top of his head.

“hehehehe – the hair didn’t grow even after leveling up…”

Even the tone of my face, which had been dark due to drinking a lot, was brightening.

“Wow!!”

Of course, the women’s eyes widened, and Go Ok-ja, in her 50s, and Ahn Eun-hye, in her late 40s, swallowed the elixir hungrily.

And as expected, both showed the effect of making their bodies younger.

‘Your abilities… Have increased a lot.’

Uncle, Go Ok-ja, and Ahn Eun-hye all had a significant increase in their abilities.

There were slight differences for each, but roughly.

Strength and agility are 40-50.

Stamina increased to 30-35, and magic power increased to a whopping 400-500.

At this level, it can be said that the shelter power has increased significantly by more than 50%.

However, even though there was a significant change in abilities, I personally was not very satisfied.

‘For such a grand event, the effect is not fantastic.’

But that was just my standard.

The three people who took it first were so thrilled that their eyes became moist.
