The Extra's Odyssey

Swords decorated the battlefield, making it appear no different from a garden of blades. The impromptu cage of weapons imprisoned the Abomination.

But something like that could only stop that monster for one minute at best. I had to pull the Abomination away from here, and I had to do it fast.

"Block this, you bastard!"

Kaneki suddenly lunged at the Abomination. With his unruly ego, he attacked the moment his arms regenerated.

Attacking Abomination was no different from explaining to the monster how to use new abilities. Before I could stop Kaneki, Leon yelled.

"Stop! Don't attack the Abomination!"

Bam-!

Kaneki ignored Leon. The Abomination's figure broke through the cage of swords and crashed into a large tree.

However, I didn't chase after the monster.

'Why does Leon know about the Abomination…?'

My heartbeat sped. I might have changed a lot of events in the novel, but this wasn't something that could happen due to a butterfly effect. There is no way Leon should know about the Abomination.

And….

'Where is Lilith?'

I could see the corpses of at least 6 cadets. A few others were badly injured and Satoru, who was on the brink of death, was only half of his original stature.

Henry's headless corpse was lying in the pool of blood, and Cadmus was trying to close the gaping hole in his abdomen.

Leon, Susan, and the few remaining alive cadets were on the verge of losing consciousness from exhaustion. They had used their strongest skills and magic relentlessly, yet nothing seemed to harm the Abomination.

The only ones capable of fighting were me and Kaneki. He was regenerating as fast as he was injured.

But there was no sign of Lilith.

'Is she… dead?'

Blood dripped from my clenched fists.

Everyone except Leon was going to die. Maybe Leon himself would die at the end of the story. I knew the pain of losing someone close too. So, I tried to shove everyone away, but Leon and Lilith, those two fools, never followed my consent.

Even if the time I spent with them was short. Both of them were there for me whenever anything happened to me, be it the Royal Demon incident, or making sure I don't get into trouble later. I called them annoying, but their intentions were always heartfelt.

"Dammit!"

And now one of those two fools was dead.

Crackle-

The crackling of thunder echoed.

"I told you already! Get away…."

Standing a bit farther from me, Leon had a horrified expression on his face. Following his gaze, I turned to the Abomination.

Crackle- Crackle-

Grey lightning snaked around the monster's arm as it was raised above its head. Its hand bulged, similar to how Kaneki's muscles expanded before he attacked.

The monster brought its fist down.

"Get away!"

And from there, nothing was ever the same.

***

"cough…cough…"

I stood up with wobbly legs. My ears were ringing repeatedly, and I could still feel the shockwaves rocking my body.

"Is anyone alive….?"

The Abomination was standing with a fascinated smile as it looked at its arm. Its face had become more defined with the outline of eyes and ears forming.

With the monster as the center, everything in a 100-meter radius has been pulverized to dust.

I had activated [Golden Turtle] and a wall of swords for as many as could at the last second. But all around me, I didn't see a single soul alive. Not even a corpse remained.

There was only a single survivor, me.

"You!!!"

Crackle- Crackle-

Clenching my jaws so hard that they bled, I glared at the monster. But as if saying that I wasn't worth its time, it ignored me and excitedly raised both of its arms to its amusement, ready to use the same attack again.

"Don't joke with me!"

Bam-!

Coating my body in the ether, I kicked the ground and dashed toward the monster.

Phhzzzt-

Fwosh- (x50)

Swords, spears, daggers, everything appeared in the air and rained. The barrage distracted the Abomination and gave me a few precious seconds to cover the distance.

A reddish-black orb floated above my palm and I struck the monster's face.

Bang-!

The monster lost its shape and reverted to a wobbly grey goo state. Raising my arms, a large [Zero Orb] formed.

"I don't need to worry about Leon finding out about my identity! There is no need to think about how to lie to Susan anymore!"

Bang-! Bang-!

The barrage of weapons didn't put a single cut on the monster. [Zero] was the only thing that was keeping it from gaining its shape and retaliating, but I was draining myself at an alarming pace to achieve it.

"Cadmus is dead as I wanted him to be! Even the main cast! There is no longer agonizing if they'll die before their time comes!"

A tentacle shot out, but I merely side-stepped and dodged the attack.

"You just solved all of my problems!"

Something warm was flowing out of my eyes. Was it blood or was it tears?

Honestly, I didn't care anymore. In a few minutes, I was also going to die at the hands of the Abomination. The monster had grown too fast.

The sky was still clear as ever, with no signs of spatial disturbance. It didn't seem Administrator was coming anytime. Maybe if others were alive, I could've used other ways to confine or escape the Abomination, but that path was no longer attainable.

But although I was going to die, I didn't feel sad about my death. Just empty.

"Die already!"

Puchi-! Bang-!

The Abomination's strike connected and threw me flying away.

Ignoring the blood pooling below me, I stood back. The God-Killing spear appeared in the air.

[Enchantment: Fire]

[Enchantment: Ice]

Fwosh-

Booom-!

The spear struck the Abomination. Combining ice and fire, a mini explosion was set off as they mixed with the spear's strange ability.

Krreeeech-

A strange cry left the Abomination's mouth and it lunged at the Spear. It was almost as if the monster recognized Spear as its long-lost adversary.

A black sphere appeared above its mouth and a black beam shot out.

The black beam corroded the Spear and decimated it.

"I'm also here!"

Phhzzzt- (x50)

Swinging my arm downward, all the weapons rained over the Abomination. But this time, the monster shrugged them off with little to no struggle.

At the same time, I spread the [Zero] from my feet and covered as much ground as possible. This should stop the Abomination for a few seconds, at least.

C…crack- C…crack- C…crack-

The cracks appeared in the sky with a weapon inside each of them.

However, no matter what I did. No matter the rage, the despair, the loss, I was feeling; the monster overcame everything I had without straining itself in the slightest.

The Abomination was stronger than me and it was growing continuously.

My death was a given at this point. I didn't have any tricks or plans left.

"I hate this fucking novel!"

From the day I transmigrated, I knew a day like this would come. I'll watch these 'characters' die. It wasn't worth any concern. It shouldn't have been.

'It is not a real world. There is no need to think about their deaths.' I told myself repeatedly.

With my knowledge of the future, I thought I could overcome any situation. 'I can worry about others later when I'm strong myself.'

But where was I now?

Not even six months had passed since the day I opened my eyes in this world, but as if fate wanted to play with me as if it wasn't enough for it to make me watch those I cared about die, everything always turned for worse.

[Fragment of Eternity], the prize in my possession, was an ore. If any one of the cadets knew blacksmithing or articifying, we could have a way to kill this monstrosity.

Yet, everyone was killed minutes after the Abomination descended.

Krreeeech-

A grey shield covered the Abomination.

Ah, it learned from me too?

The strengthened punch from Kaneki, the attribute buff from Leon, and finally the defense from me.

Thud-!

My knees gave out and I fell to the ground.

'Did I run out of stamina already? How many hours passed since I began fighting the Abomination?'

Raising my arm, I checked the device I had on me. "What…? It's not malfunctioning, is it?" I had to double-check to be certain that I wasn't hallucinating.

"Two minutes…" Unknowingly, I started laughing."It killed everyone and utterly defeated me in two minutes."

From the corner of my eyes, I found the Abomination opening its maw, ready to use the black beam.

"Sigh, I thought I finally became overpowered after defeating the Overlord, and the next fight didn't even last three minutes."

Staring at the pale blue sky, I infused Nether into my core. I wasn't going to die without leaving a parting gift to this colorless bastard.

At that moment, a shadow fell upon me, along with a familiar voice that rang in my ears.

"[Shield of Oblivion]"

Baang-!

"This is why I warned you to not change the storyline."
