This Eroge Won't Make Me Fall!

Chapter 430 426: Retro Builder (2)





[Death! The Scythe of Death!]

"Come back! Retro fucker! I'll give you a good Retro beating!"

The Retro Builder dashed ahead, sticking out of the ground was a giant scythe that stretched straight to the skies.

"Huh? Is that a weapon?"

[D-don't eye it! Monster!]

Retro Builder suddenly morphed and grew two hands. It picked up a giant stone from below and sent it reeling at me faster than most ballistic missiles.

I covered my hand in Cataclysm and reached to punch the giant boulder. As soon as my hand reached it, the boulder tore open from the center and turned into a net coming after me.

Not bad. Not bad at all.

I stomped my foot down to reel back and spread the cataclysm. The net broke into bits once more and formed dozens of tiny knives at point blank range.

My eyes darted around and I moved back at the highest speed to avoid all the knives.

But that much delay was enough for the Retro Builder to pick up the giant scythe off the ground.

[Hah! With this… with Death's Scythe, I'll make quick work of you!]

I looked below and saw dozens of holes formed by the many knives that dug straight into the ground.

"Hah…" A sighed and looked up. It had such good control over its abilities, if only it wasn't fighting me it could have brought about a lot of destruction.

Ideally, I might have needed stage three or even four to take this guy down. But my destruction was a natural counter to his reconstruction like water was to fire. Stage one was more than enough.

[Now! Face your end, monster!]

Retro Builder lodged the giant scythe out and swung it in its hands, like a master of the art.

"That looks like a good weapon."

The chains wrapped around my neck tugged at me.

—WHIRR WHIRR!

"What? What are you doing getting jealous of a damned scythe?"

—WHIRRR!!

[Retro Cutter]

Retro Builder did not even give us time to have proper talks and transformation sequences. This guy was a real killjoy.

The ground warped in a giant box to trap us in while the Retro Builder raised its scythe to the skies, ready to bring it down like a guillotine.

The dome closed.

All light left my eyes.

"Alright Catene, what you feeling like?"

-Whir?

The air inside left as everything came to a still, followed by a loud rumble from the sound of the enormous scythe being swung down.

I yawned and patted the chains around my neck.

"Choose."

Getting many choices wasn't always good, huh?

—Whirrrr…. whirrr…

My senses heightened up at once as I left the scythe just above us. I could save the next yawn for a while. The top of the dome trapping me in cracked and the giant blade of the scythe came lapping down headfirst to slice me in half.

It was then.

Catene loosened from around my neck as a bright light flashed.

I swung my hand up and met with the falling scythe. A giant boom spread through the air that broke the dome around me and the ground all around it apart from the sheer force.

The scythe of death clashed straight into… a giant baseball bat.

"You lame bastard!!" I screamed at Catene and put more strength into the swing. The giant scythe of death broke into halves and went fluttering back like a frisbee while I grabbed Catene and scolded it.

[Huh…? Wha…]

"One job man, one job. This is what being a NEET for so long does to you. I did not train for so long for you to pull this—"

[M-monster… how…?]

I looked at the Retro Builder. It seemed to really not have had enough yet.

It tried to attack again, but Catene had pissed me off. I swung the baseball bat once.

—BOOOOOM!

An explosion incomparable to before rang as its body chopped in half from the center, the flash of black that had emerged from the bat tore through it and into the dust clouds above, ending them too.

[Ah… AH! AHHH!]

I jumped ahead and swung the bat down. The Outer God was splattered in half again until its head separated from its body.

[Why… why isn't it working?! Why!??]

That was it. What sucked about our matchup.

Reconstruction could only reconstruct what already existed.

I placed the bat on my shoulder and placed a foot on the giant, round head of the Outer God.

No matter how much it tried. It could not reconstruct what did not exist anymore.

Like a virus spreading, my Cataclysm ate into the torn halves of the Outer God and took them away from this world.

[How… who… what are you?]

"I'll be asking the questions. Catene, mind binding him?"

Catene turned back into small chains that fit around my neck. A single lock fell out and danced toward to the head of Retro Builder before expanding into a giant group of threads and wrapped all around the Outer God.

"This concept will be useful for Albert. I'll give you as a gift."

[You! You! Leave me, let me go—MMF!]

Its mouth got tied up at the end by Catene's threads. Eugene's Catene could make giant chains, this guy was sure a wimp, or was it just lazy?

I rolled the giant head toward me and bounced it on my feet a couple times.

"Seal."

All the stages closed back once more and I kicked the head ahead.

My eyes went to my hand once.

The brand was still there, but I was too afraid to call her here.

"We'll meet soon, soulmate."

***

"Albert."

"Ah, Luka, you're here."

Albert pushed up his hair and stood from his seat. Behind him stretched the wide expanse of the forest of Avalion.

Standing at the gate with a sword strapped to his waist was the redhead Luka staring at his old friend.

"You want me to tag with you on a trip?"

Albert shook his head, then nodded. The bags under his eyes clearly visible.

"I think its about time I powered up to your level."

"What are you planning?"

His gaze turned toward the forest again.

"Everyone in the top 25 strongest list is already here."

"I disagree with that list largely. I am definitely top 25 material."

"Well, what I am saying is. It's safe for the time being. There's this Outer God… I want its ability."

"An Outer God?"

Albert nodded.

"Reconstruction. I want it."
