Chapter 13: Overgeared
-----
I cannot run away anymore. I am tired of running away. Through the memories that I awakened from my previous life, I realized how much of a coward and a useless person I was within the novel’s story.
Always running away, always crying, always being used as a plot device to bring my brother even more unnecessary hardships, always made to be someone that gets beaten and cries. Even in my previous life... I was always someone who looked upon all those better than me, someone who had nobody, and who was always seen as useless.
I had a regretful first life, I cannot simply waste my second life being a pussy.
I’m going to fight.
And I’m going to kill this fucking bastard.
Ding!
[The Power of [Thanatos’s Broken Scythe (B Rank)] generates a powerful Death Aura around you, intimidating your foe!]
[The blazing aura of [Blazing Dragon Tooth (B Rank)] seems to be eager to roast and eat whatever you slice...]
I quickly equipped both of the weapons I acquired. The previous spear I crafted was already shattered into pieces, and so was my shield, my armor was barely holding together. If I abuse the abilities I have and these weapons.
I have a chance to win.
It is minuscule, but I am going to grasp it no matter what.
“I have no idea where you found those fancy weapons, little bitch, but I’m going to happily take them away from your corpse once this is all over!” Laughed Han, rushing forward without saying another word.
FLAAASH!
His entire body was suddenly beginning to be covered by red scales, as the tattoo on his hand in the shape of a snake eating its own tail started to glow. This was the power of a Demonic Human, people that make contracts with powerful Demons and gain immense power in exchange for their sanity and soul.
“{Uroboro’s Venomous Fangs}!!!”
His entire aura erupted as it shaped into a ferocious, red-colored snake, his dagger beginning to flare with great amounts of a venomous, green-colored flame.
CLAAASH!
However, I evaded the attack once more, leaving only a trail of emerald winds behind. Han’s face distorted in anger as he saw me escape from his lethal attack, which shattered the ground and left a spiderweb-shaped crater behind.
“You’re slow, Hans,” I said with a smirk to provoke him further, as I slashed the air using the Blazing Dragon Tooth, flames erupted from within the magic weapon, which promptly combined with the winds the Sylph ring granted to me.
FLUOSH!
“Ngghh...!”
BOOOMMM!!
The massive blazing explosion reached Hans in mere seconds, but I saw him evade at an incredible speed, though once he appeared behind me with half his face burned, I smiled.

“W-What is this damn fire?! Agh, just DIE already!”
[The Demonic Throne {The Snake That Endlessly Devours Its Own Tail} gazes at you while squinting his eyes]
[He says your death will be agonizing for ridiculing his loyal slave and pretending to be one of his servants!]
“SHAAAHH!”
CLAAASH!
Han roared, attacking with all his strength. I coated myself on Emerald Winds using the power of the Sylph’s ring, evading his blows while slashing at him with the Dragon Tooth and covering him with more dragon flames.
BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!
He was taking damage, but it was going to take a while for him to weaken now that he transformed.
“GRRRHHH... These damned flames...!”
FLASH!
Hans quickly reached to me once more, slashing at me with his long claws while unleashing projectiles of venom over my body with his mouth.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
“Stop running away!”
Hans cried furiously, as he began hastening his movements, but with the ring I received, I was always a hair faster than him, barely making it until...!
Ding!
[The [Thanatos’s Broken Scythe (B Rank)] has charged with enough Soul Power!]
[Your sacrifice has been taken! The power of Thanatos has been imbued into this scythe!]
The Scythe of Thanatos began overflowing with a black aura. Hans reacted to this powerful, evil presence, as he suddenly jumped away in fear of death itself.
“Huh?!”
FLASH!
His eyes stared at me amidst the inferno of flames, as he felt something emerging from my scythe that really scared him. When I took it out, I didn’t use it at all. There was a good reason for that, and it was within the scythe’s own abilities...

To activate this weapon’s powers, I gave a fragment of my soul, a tenth of it. It was affordable, and the soul pain was horrible, but it was not beyond recovery. Now, based on the Durability, I have 100 seconds to kill this bastard.
“T-That Scythe...! Just what is that?!” Hans cried in fear.
“This? It is what’s going to end your life, Hans.” I smiled back at him, as I leaped forward, slashing at him with the scythe using all of my strength.
SLAAAAASH!
