Chapter 143:

*Thump* *Thump!*

His chest hurt.

Ughhh!

Something hard was pressing down on his chest again and again.

S-Stop. My ribs. Ugh.

The pain was temporary.

He felt something moist and soft against his mouth.

A warm blast of breath that felt soothing.

And then.

Kuurkk!

Otto spat out the sea water hed ingested when he had fallen into the ocean, and sprang to his feet.

Where am I Huck!

Otto was startled to see Elise wiping the water off her face.

*Thud!*

Otto dropped to the ground again.

Then he squeezed his eyes shut and pretended to pass out.

Given the circumstances, it was obvious that he had spat the seawater in Elises face.

Oh no. Im a fool, a crazy idiot, Otto, you bloody idiot! No matter how unconscious I was, why did I spew seawater in Elises face? Id rather commit suicide, kill myself!

Hold on.

But why is Elise here? Has it been a month already?

The status window had been glitchy lately, and he wondered if the reminder for the [Homework Inspection] quest hadnt popped up.

Or maybe it was because his sense of days was dulled by the long voyage.

But it wasnt.

[Reminder: 91 hours and 24 seconds until Homework Inspection!]

[Reminder: 91 hours and 23 seconds!]

It was a bit blurred, but when he opened the status window, there was ample time left.

No matter how nonchalant Otto was, there was no way he would have forgotten about the [Homework Inspection].

It was just that Elise came early.

Incidentally.

I remember up to the point where Camille saved me, but after that I dont have much recollection.

Then, a voice said.

Get up.'

Elises voice pierced Ottos ears.

I know you didnt passed out.

Its fine, theres no need to be scared.

R-Really?

Otto slowly cracked open one eye and looked at Elise.

Its true. Everything Is alright.

Im so sorry.

Otto apologized sincerely to Elise.

It is understandable. This is a battlefield. Where life and death constantly intersect, whats wrong with a little water?

Ah.

More than that.

Elise added.

Im glad you didnt die.

Elise.

If my fianc had died in front of me, I wouldnt have been able to bear it.

Otto felt a certain emotion in Elises words.

Elise.

Get up. The fight isnt over yet.

Okay.

Otto took Elises outstretched hand and hauled himself up.

*Throb!*

He didnt know why, but his head was pounding.

He prodded it with his hand and found a large bump.

What hit me?

Otto had no idea what had knocked him out.

Knowing was even weirder.

Not unless he had a third eye on top of his head.

The situation is.

He surveyed the battlefield.

The Flagship Tyrant was still being wrapped by the largest Kraken.

One of the remaining Kraken was guarding Avery from the Black Fleet.

And the other one was.

.!

Otto was amazed to see a kraken floating in the distance, split in two.

As far as Otto knew, the only person who could cut a kraken in two was.

Elise.

Otto whipped his head around to look at Elise.

Surely. did you use all your power?

Not to that degree.

Elise denied.

But Otto knew all too well that it wasnt the case.

It might not be at full power.

However, there was no denying that it took considerable power to cut a Kraken in two.

You used more power than what is allowed.

Ottos expression turned serious.

You know better than anyone that you were not supposed to be doing such things.

What do you mean?

You know what happens when you use more power than is appropriate.

Elises expression hardened somewhat.

It was clear that Ottos words had shaken her.

That How do you know that?

When Elise asked Otto how he could know that, Otto didnt answer.

Instead, he cornered Elise.

Why did you do that, Why?

Because.

You know you shouldnt use your energy carelessly.

Im just.

Elise answered.

I was just angry.

Angry?

I couldnt watch my fianc being picked on, right in front of me, thats all.

No matter the reason, you used more power than you were supposed to.

Its one thing to fight one, but three is difficult, you know.

That. That.

This time, Otto was rendered speechless.

Elises words were indeed true.

The three Krakens were a variable that even Otto hadnt foreseen.

If Elise hadnt shown up, there was a good chance that the Red Goddess would have been sunk and everyone would have been turned into fish food with no victory.

The [Black Fleet] would have either lasted and fled, or been sunk.

Haaa.

A deep sigh came out of Ottos mouth.

Your power shouldnt be used like this, Elise. Its far too precious to be used to save me.

Although Elise was not a Lord, her importance to the [Territory Wars] was enormous.

In terms of significance as a character, she ranks in the top three of all the characters in the world.

And knowing Elises storyline so well, Otto couldnt help but lament the current situation.

So, from the very beginning, Otto tried to avoid getting involved with Elise.

The reason?

Because Elise had a role to play.

The power of Elise, the most powerful person in the world.

Think about it later.

Elises voice jolted Otto out of his musings.

The battle is in full progress. Focus.

Yes.

Otto struggled to stand, using the [Golden Greatsword] as a cane.

His whole body was a mess.

Half of his ribs were broken, his collarbone was protruding through his skin, and his left calf was twisted.

The pain was indescribable.

Ive been through a lot anyway. This kind of pain is nothing.

*Rustle!* *Rustle!*

Otto dug out a jelly candy from his pouch and popped it into his mouth, chewing it like a rock, and mustering up his determination.

*Munch!* *Munch!*

As the elixir began to take effect, he could feel his tattered body recovering quickly.

Go, Ill help you with this.

No.

Otto shook his head.

This is my fight. Ill take care of it, Elise..

I promise I wont use any more power than I should. Im just offering to help you fight.

To help me fight?

Get in.

Elise levitated her own sword.

Ride this thing?

It wont fall off. Dont be afraid.

Oh, okay.

Otto believed her words and stepped on Elises sword.

It felt like standing on a snowboard.

*Boom!*

At the same time, a resonance occurred, synchronizing Ottos will with Elises sword.

What is this? What is this feeling?

Otto felt a strange sensation as if his will was being transmitted to Elises sword.

*Boom!*

Elises will likewise synchronized with the sword, resulting in a resonance.

Can you hear me?

Elises voice echoed in Ottos mind.

The sword had acted as a kind of router, connecting Ottos and Elises minds.

This meant that Elise could control the sword, reflecting Ottos will in real time.

Yes, I hear you.

Trust me, and go. The sword will move according to your will.

I trust you.

Otto believed Elises words and tried moving the sword.

*Shooooo!*

The sword began to fly through the air at Ottos will.

There were no controls needed.

The sword moved as he willed, and all he had to focus on was fighting.

Lets go.

Otto accelerated his pace.

*Shooooooooo!*

The sword that carried Otto began to fly at jet-like speeds.

There was no worry of falling.

Ottos feet adhered to the blade like they were glued together.

This is another instance of Elises power

S-Sword Flight!

Kairos yelled at the sight.

Sword Flight.

A pastime exclusive to those Supreme individuals who can unleash the finesse of the sword.

Needless to say, it was not a skill that anyone could master.

It was a privilege reserved for only a select few.

Even in Kairos generation, there were only a handful of people, including Kairos himself, who were capable of performing the feat.

Hehehe.

Kairos chuckled to himself.

Theyre quite the pair. Engaged to be married and creating legends. But.

A hint of wistfulness flashed across Kaiross face.

The emergence of someone so powerful is a sign of impending trouble. When the time of turmoil comes, heaven and earth will fall, and a new age will begin.

These were the words of a man who knew all too well the chaotic world that had once plagued the past.

* /SchattenTranslations *

The battle has recommenced.

*Shoooooooo!!*

Like a fighter jet, Elises sword flew and brought Otto to the [Tyrant] in the space of a few seconds.

Mobility is sufficient. Then.

Otto clutched the [Golden Greatsword].

*Squeeezee!!*

The Krakens tentacles wrapped around <The Tyrant>.

Cut.

Otto brandishes the [Golden Greatsword].

*Clink!*

The lengthened <Golden Greatsword> sparkled with golden brilliance, and severed the Krakens tentacles.

*Slash!*

One of its tentacles that was wrapped around <Tyrant> was cut off in two parts.

SCREEEZZEECCHHHH!!!*

The Kraken screeched, releasing <Tyrant>, and dove down to the depths of the ocean.

Get up!

Otto shook the slumped Drake up from his unconscious state.

Come on, Wake up!

Ugghhh!

Take control of this place. Direct the Fleets.

The current situation is.

I dont have time to talk and explain, just get up and get moving!

Otto finished speaking and rode Elises sword into the sky again.

What did I just witness?

Drakes eyes snapped to focus on Ottos flying sword for a moment, then he regained his bearings and grasped his sword.

As Otto had said, there wasnt time for such things.

Fleet, maneuver.

Drakes will was transmitted to the sword in his hand, and the <Black Fleet> began to move.

At that moment.

*SPLAAASSSSHHHH!!*

The Kraken, whose tentacles had been severed, burst to the waters surface.

*RRRROOOOOAAAARRR!!!*

The enraged Kraken flailed its remaining seven tentacles frantically, but it couldnt capture Otto.

Otto was swift.

Riding a sword and flying through the air, Ottos maneuverability was simply beyond the capabilities of the Krakens whipping tentacles.

Dive Turn And then Cut.

The extended Golden Greatsword chopped off two of the Krakens tentacles at one go.

SCREEEEECCCHHH!!!

The writhing kraken is shrieking.

Ill make a sashimi out of you.

Otto flew at a terrifying speed and cleaved the Krakens head about 30 meters with the [Golden Greatsword].

*Squeeelcchh!*

White brain fluids and black ink gushed out at the same time.

During this time.

*BOOOM!* *BANG!* *BOOM!* *BOOOOM!* *BOOOM!* *BANG!* *BOOM!* *BOOOOM!*

The Black Fleet, commanded by Drake, unleashed a barrage of heavy artillery fire on the Kraken protecting Avery.

Screeeccchh!

The Kraken gave a shriek of agony as the hail of hundreds of artillery rounds rained down on it.

Was that all?

Arghhhhh!

Death Diie.

Beast of the Deep its time to return to the Abyss.

Thousands of Wraiths from the Phantom Armor also swarmed towards the Kraken, indiscriminately attacking it.

The entire battle was split in two.

The strongest and most massive was being fought by Otto.

And the one protecting Avery was being attacked by Drakes Black Fleet and Kairos Wraith Legion.

In the midst of such a fierce battle.

Its time.

Elises voice penetrated Ottos ears.

Right, Im heading in.

Otto completely unleashed the output of the Golden Greatsword.

*SWIIIISSSSHH!*

The glowing [Golden Greatsword] stretched out by nearly a hundred meters.

*Slash!*

Otto slashed down in a vertical line using the Golden Greatsword.

*Split!*

The most powerful Kraken was split vertically and collapsed.

More!

Otto didnt stop there.

*Slash!*

The [Golden Greatsword] swung wildly from left to right.

*Swissh!*

The head of the Kraken, which was being hammered by the Black Fleet and the Wraiths of Kairos, was blown off.

The bodies of the two mauled Kraken collapsed and splattered.

And with that, it was over.

The battle that had begun with Ottos stratagem ended with the point of his sword.

Leaving behind a legend throughout the Gurling Archipelagos history that would come to be known as the [Battle of Skull Island].
