The Hero’s Brother Is Bound To Be Depressed

254 – Water Drops

A violent urge to grab Jamie by the nape of his neck and break his neck as the daggers clash stimulates his heart. But thanks to her indomitable courage, she was able to suppress her berserker instincts.

If you reach out hastily in a power struggle situation, there is a chance that your posture will collapse. There was a possibility that a self-immolation could appear from behind, so the longer the confrontation continued, the more I lost.

I made a quick decision and pushed the dagger away with force, and my gaze met in the air with Jamie, who had pulled back to widen the distance like me. Anticipating the attack that would follow, I strengthened my thighs, but my opponent made no movement.

“Hahaha, haha… !!!”

Jamie, who was holding his stomach with his dagger hand and laughing without any caution, as if he had just heard a funny joke, his eyes sparkled and the corners of his mouth stretched out.

“Cute, very cute! Seeing you not understanding the nature of madness and foolishly suppressing it, it’s as if you’re in heat! I got so excited! Huuu… !”

Jamie, with his maniacal ridicule, was not telling a clown’s joke. He started to proudly stick out the front of his trousers, which were really thick.

Frowning at that disgusting sight, he threw aside the dagger he was holding and raised the Spear of Destruction. Now that you have gained the speed to react to the surprise attack, you can continue the fight by increasing the distance and taking advantage of space magic.

Unlike me, who didn’t relax during the battle, Jamie flopped down on the floor as if he didn’t care about my attacks, raised his head to the sky and laughed so hard that his uvula was visible.

“Hahaha, you caught up with me? With just that level of madness… ?! Huuu… !”

The words that came out of Jamie’s throat seemed to be sticky with unpleasantness. Jamie stopped laughing and scratched her own forehead with the tip of her dagger, her expression filled with contempt.

“This is ridiculous.”

The blade tore the skin and blood flowed down, but Jamie stared at me without blinking and not stopping scratching his forehead with the dagger, as if he could not feel the pain. She then started talking with a wicked smile.

“Madness. The moment you try to control it, it becomes unusable. “Freedom is the essence of madness.”

The playful voice changed. Rather than coldness, there was hidden in his low voice something that seemed to boil over.

Jamie stood up and inserted the tip of the dagger into the torn skin of his forehead. The clown makeup turns red from the blood that flows down.

“If you completely surrender yourself to madness. Every nerve burns with madness. “It becomes a body that can never go back to how it was before.”

Jamie lifted his skin with a dagger and tapped the exposed bone.

“Instead, all the problems in your head will fade away. It will give you freedom from things like order and chaos, and the absolute laws of the universe.”

A strange distortion occurred behind Jamie. As if there was a haze, space rippled and spatial coordinates collapsed. It is similar to the phenomenon I experienced when fighting Dwin.

“… chaos?”

Jamie must have heard me muttering, and the corner of his mouth twitched.

“It should be called pure madness that swallows up even chaos.”

When Jamie opened his arms, the faint remaining blood fog disappeared completely along with a huge gust of wind. Flesh and blood scattered everywhere began to move on their own and coalesce into a human-shaped mass.

“Madness is a wave. “It just spreads.”

Jamie’s voice comes from behind. And she immediately turns to my right, where what was her lump becomes Jamie, raising her body and smiling only with her mouth.

“Insanity increases in size by absorbing each other like water droplets.”

Before I knew it, the surrounding area was filled with dozens of Jamie. It appeared that he was using a corpse to create an alter ego.

“Aren’t you curious about who will be eaten when our madness collides? Hehehe!”

Even if there were dozens of Jamies around, finding the main body was not difficult. Because it was the only place without spatial coordinates. The torn forehead was also one of the clues to finding the body.

I held on tightly to the Spear of Destruction. Thanks to the battle continuation, the injuries to my thighs and back disappeared, and my movements became lighter. As I lowered the tip of the spear toward the floor and recognized all the spatial coordinates around me, I felt someone taking a step towards me.

puck—!

Using spatial magic, he created a dimensional passage behind the approaching clone’s back and exploded its head.

Jamie, with his arms crossed, twisted his lips at me with a smirk.

“It’s not a bad thing to fight endlessly with countless others.”

There is an absolute numerical difference that cannot be overcome with a single spear. In order to stop enemies attacking from all directions at the same time, the gap that appears the moment you throw out the window is inevitable. It was also the reason why I failed every time I attempted the second ordeal.

But it doesn’t mean that there is no way now. I’ve never used it in real life, but I got a feel for it every time I had time. By inserting the Spear of Destruction into the ground, he uses magical power to materialize the spear in his head.

“Please endure the waves of madness.”

In an instant, all of Jamie’s clones were running towards me. With the coolness created by indomitable courage, he reads the free space around him and embodies the phenomenon of the attack that the Spear of Shadow will create.

I created a dimensional exit around my body. There are a total of 16 dimensional passages that can be maximized by gathering all magical power. That alone is enough to be a fortress against enemies attacking from all directions.

The number of exits created is 16. There was only one entrance to the dimension connected to it. Previously, you had to retrieve the spear that went into the dimensional passage and attack using the passage leading to another exit, but now there was no need to do that.

The main reason I wanted to get the Spear of Shadows was… This is because it has no original form, so it can be implemented to expand into dozens of spear blades.

While the Spear of Destruction is a single-shot sniper rifle focused on destructive power, the Spear of Shadow is no different from an automatic shotgun with high stopping power against large numbers of people.

A spear of shadow was thrown towards the entrance of only one dimension. Then, numerous spear tips came out of the exit through the 16 connected dimensional passages and got stuck between the eyes of the rushing clone.

Card drawn―――!

“Kyahahaha!!!”

“Huuu!”

Even though my skull exploded and my brain drained, Jamie’s alter ego kept running towards me. However, I killed all the clones that came at me from all directions with simple repeated stabs. It was literally no different from crushing.

“Wow, there are dozens of windows… Was I not the only one who was increasing? Huuuw!

Jamie, who was mumbling like that, started to approach with steady steps as if he was excited. She looks like she’s genuinely happy to fight with me.

“Then, shall we stop this useless war of attrition?”

All exits to the dimension that had been created around the area were unlocked. My vision opened, and I stared with cold eyes at Jamie, who was approaching me at a leisurely pace.

While reviewing the fight with Dewin, I prepared for a fight in a situation where I couldn’t use space magic. He reached into the space storage room and took out a bag containing seeds.

Even though it was flat land where I couldn’t use the terrain, I had a way. When I judge it calmly, I lack skills, so I have to fight in the only battlefield I have to somehow increase my chances of winning.

I put my pouch on my waist and picked up the Spear of Destruction that was stuck in the ground. At the same time, he poured magical energy into a seed he had secretly hidden in his palm and dropped it into the hole in the floor created by the tip of the spear, erasing the trace.

When I held the spear forward, Jamie seemed to have decided that he was ready and started moving. You can’t even hear the sound of stepping on the ground, it feels like only the wind is moving.

I quickly swung the spear held out in front of me to keep it in check, but I couldn’t feel the tip of the spear. As I busily moved my legs and pulled out to the side, a dagger flew out of the space where there had been nothing until a moment ago.

When the dagger was thrown away, Jamie, who caught the dagger in the air as if he had guessed the outcome in advance, swung the dagger using his speed.

Cancankang!

In an instant, three consecutive strikes resulted in a violent collision sound and embers rising. As she took a step back and distanced herself from him, Jaime held her dagger upside down, keeping her balance low, like her frog.

Jamie’s heel smashed the pavement and rushed towards me at incredible speed. Even though her berserker effect was activated, she was unable to keep up with the movement for a moment.

The moment Jamie took two steps, he hurled the spear he had pulled into his arms forward with great force.

visor-!

Jamie’s fierce momentum falters for a moment at the moment of defense. She takes advantage of that moment, giving up her distance advantage and taking short steps, narrowing the distance from one side to the other.

A powerful blow filled with the power of destruction was aimed at Jamie’s neck. Jamie, who was visible in her field of vision, urgently raised her dagger and tried to block her attack.

However, the dagger did not protect the neck and went straight up. I felt uncomfortable at the strange sight of allowing a fatal attack, so I urgently stopped the attack and changed my posture to be able to respond to the variable.

For a moment, something flashed at the edge of my vision.

Phew!

“Ugh… !!!”

Thanks to changing my posture, I avoided a fatal wound, but the dagger scratched my left eye. What caught her by surprise was Jamie’s clone appearing to her left.

“Haha! “I would have said that trickery is the basis of a clown!”

It was a mistake. I had the complacent thought that Jamie had set himself on fire by burning all the nearby corpses. The rush was just a move to hide the process of creating the alter ego.

As the clone tried to attack again, the spear was inserted between the eyes, causing his posture to collapse slightly. Not missing the opportunity, Jamie stepped forward with her foot to strike. And that was where the hole I had placed the seed in a little while ago was.

Pshu shoot―――!

“Ugh… !!!”

Like a landmine, a huge vine erupted from the ground where he stepped and wrapped around Jamie’s legs. It was a rare plant called Monster Hell that was newly added to the seed bag.

Although we were attacked unexpectedly, the reason we gave up our advantage in distance and deliberately narrowed the distance was to direct Jamie’s charge towards the direction where the seeds were hidden.

I am also confident in lying.
