Chapter 37 - Melting under pressure

"The Ice Mage was sent cutting through the forest".

~Telepathic Call~

(Reoto have you completed your task)?

~Reoto~

(No bu-)

~No.4 God~

(Don't make me regret giving you this chance to prove yourself! Get it done quick and report back. If you don't, Funochi will be your replacement).

~Reoto~

(Understood). I'm sorry to cut this short but we've ran out of time, so I'll end this, Ice Magic: Ice Island!

"A one hundred meters wide ice cube was formed over Kenchi and Yonaka".

~Kenchi~

(What do I do)? If I don't destroy the cube, it'll crush everyone, but he'll just summon more.

Don't worry Lord Kenchi!

~Kenchi~

Viran you're awake!

~Viran~

Focus on him. I'll handle this.

~Kenchi~

Right!

"Kenchi darted toward Reoto. He created a ice sword and rushed toward Kenchi".

~Viran~

Here goes nothing.

"Viran raised both of his hands and his mark covered his entire left arm".

~Viran~

Darkness Rift!!

"A giant rift opened in the sky, as the ice cube passed through the rift, Viran's hand started to crack under the pressure of how fast his mana was being depleted. Upon closing the rift he collapsed".

~Viran~

Lord Kenchi, I'm sorry but I need to sleep...

"Kenchi threw punch after punch to no avail. Every time Reoto's sword broke, he fixed it almost instantly".

~Kenchi~

Thank you Viran, I'll take it from here.

~Reoto~

Ice Scythe!!

"He ripped through Kenchi's left hand with ease".

~Kenchi~

Shit. I'll finish this with a maximum power punch.

"Kenchi used his mark and his muscles became more defined. Reoto took a swing at Kenchi's neck, but Kenchi dodged and gut punched him with ten times the power of the first punch. Reoto's spine and rib cage completely shattered from the sheer force".

~Reoto~

Forgive me Lord Esaki! I am too weak!

~Kenchi~

Lord Esaki? Is that who sent you after me.

~Reoto~

I'll never tell you. You aren't even close to the power of Lord Esaki...

"Reoto closed his eyes and fell asleep forever".

[Soul nearby]

~Kenchi~

Huh? A soul? Does this mean I can harvest his soul?

"A blue and white light emerged from Reoto".

~Kenchi~

This is his soul, right?

"Kenchi raised his hand and absorbed the light. A sudden drowsy feeling took control of Kenchi and he blacked out".
