Breakthrough with the Forbidden Master

Chapter 345 – That Technique a Second T

This time, Tre’ainar would not fight. But he was watching us.

And he askedto do this.

He said only I could do it.

I wonder what this feeling of elation is.

It felt even better than when Tre’ainar pushed my back in the Imperial Match.

There’s no way I’ll lose.

“Fuh~, fu~…… ah~…… I’m so gonna mess you up… Earth, was it?”

“Con!”

Gouda’s breathing was ragged as he called out my name. But, he seemed much calmer than before.

But that was more like the calm before the storm…… the calm before the huge explosion, and there was no change in the chilling pressure in the air.

And then……

“I could crush you, but… you’d just squirm around and get away… so, let’s do this instead.”

“…… Hmm?”

“Ha, ha, ndraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh!”

“Huh!?”

Gouda roared again. But, he didn’t roar and pounce, just growled on the spot and gathered all his strength.

What was he about to do?

At that moment, a change occurred in Gouda’s whole body.

“What, Gouda’s body …….”

“Gouda’s body, which had been gigantic, is now back to normal…… ? No…… as if it had been shrunk.”

“Lord Gouda, what are you planning……? I never thought you would undo your gigantic form…”

“No…… that is…… rather than merely undoing…… it’s more akin to forcibly compressing an inflating form…….”

Gouda was trying to return from his gigantic size.

But, rather than simply releasing the gigantic growth, it seemed like he was forcibly compressing his muscles in, as the Chieftain said.

“Ka, ha …… nggu, gnu nunu…….”

Gouda was trying to get his body back to normal, as if someone who was wearing baggy clothes was now suddenly wearing tight clothes of a different size.

“What are you doing…?”

“Heh, hehe…… with magic and muscle manipulation…… well, you see…… by doing this…… I won’t lose sight of you…… by squeezing, I beclighter…… and also …… faster.”

“Huh!?”

“Well, I forced it…… so with this stimulus…… the explosion countdown just got shorter…… but it doesn’t matter, cause I’ll finish you off in an instant! You’re not getting away anymore, you bastaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaard!!”

His size has returned to normal. But, because he forcibly contracted his muscles, they beceven denser, and were in a state of extrexcitement.

And at the stime, I realized that I had seen Gouda’s current state somewhere before.

That was in Cacretale……

“Huh!? That’s right, Mr. Machio’s……. Pump Up!”

Control of the muscles and blood flow.

As a result, Mr. Machas dramatically increased his power and speed.

Was it the same? No, it’s greater than that.

And the next moment, Gouda kicked the ground――――

“Drop dead, goraaaaaaaaaa!”

“Ha―――― “

So fast! Avoid…… Impossible, the trajectory then……

“【Great Demon Parry】!”

There’s no tto dodge with steps.

The only option was to change the trajectory of Gouda’s punches, which fly in a straight line. Perfectly…… repelled……

“【Great Demon Slipping Away】!”

Gouda’s punch flew towards my face without hesitation, and I twisted my neck to parry it.

“Wh, aaaaaaa~~~, what’s going on?!”

What a punch. The pressure of his fist blows away all the debris in the distance.

The destructive power remains the sas before, but the speed has increased to a new level.

“One more shot!!”

This time, Gouda threw a left hook. And the next moment, only Gouda’s left arm began to swell.

Is this a type of muscle manipulation? By strengthening the muscles only where you need to? You can even do that?

But it’s a simple left hook, just swinging his arm around.

The first shot was faster than I expected, so my movement was delayed, but if I calmly watched Gowda’s muscle movements, his line of sight, his elbows, fists, and joints, I could predict what was coming.

“Here!”

“Anh?”

I ducked on the spot to avoid a left hook.

And at the stime, it’s an opportunity. This was Gouda’s bosom, and looking up, I see an unprotected jaw.

“【Great Demon Frog Punch】!!”

“Huh!?”

From a crouching position, jump like a frog and hit an uppercut……

“Wha, th, the heck!?”

“Ah~……”

Is the hardness of his body the seven after the size reduction? No, rather, did the increased density make it harder?

Even though the uppercut was perfectly timed and angled, instead of knocking off his head, my fist hurt.

“Don’t… mess with… me…”

The shockwave of the roar was coming. Ah, I can’t stay here

“【Great Demon Escape】”

“Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeey!!”

So loud, I felt like my eardrums were going to burst. I mean, just screaming was enough to create a powerful shockwave.

But……

“Ahh……”

My anticipation was quicker. I managed to get out of range.

“Tch, again…… you just keep runniiiiiiiiiiig! If you’re a man, stand still and fight meeeeeeeeeee!!”

Gouda was still chasing. He hunched over and took an animal-like stance.

Then, in the next moment, Gouda’s legs bulged out, and he flew straight atwith the force of a cannonball.

This explosive speed…… if it were a linear movement, it would be faster thanin my breakthrough state.

A feint…… no, this guy doesn’t care about feints, he’s just flying straight at me.

Then……

“【Great Demon Swim】!”

“Nga!?”

In a low stance, I placed my arms over Gouda’s head and dodged sideways in a swimming motion.

“Th, this guy…… Ha, ha…… running around again, urraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh!”

I sidestepped Gouda as if I was slipping through, but Gouda stopped abruptly and then turned around and tried to hitwith a straight right.

It’s monotonous. I can match this.

“【Great Demon Cross Counter】!”

Cross counter on the right. Light cross.

“T-uh…nga…… ……”

“Nuh…… brat……”

Ah, that was dangerous…… my right arm got hurt when the Great Magic Spiral was shattered…… now, the bones in my fist were broken, my elbow…and my shoulder?

I don’t have much strength…… even if I hit him like this, the opponent won’t take much damage, and I’m the one taking more damage…… but, so what?

“【Great Demon Heartbreak Shot】!”

“Ugh!?”

Gouda didn’t waver even after my cross counter, so I slammed my left fist into his heart.

Even if there was no damage, it made Gouda’s body stiffen for a moment.

At that moment, I pulled back and accumulated magical power to the left……

“Oooooooh, 【Great Magic Spiral, Earth Spiral Break】!!!”

“Ubueh!??

I slammed the Great Magic Spiral into Gouda’s unprotected abdomen.

Totally went in. It was also rewarding.

“Open up a windhole and get blown away!!”

His abdominal muscles were being shaved in.

I could feel it intuitively. His muscles were certainly too strong and too hard.

But, in terms of body hardness, Vasalar, the Dragon King of Hades, was better.

Even the Great Magic Spiral was no match for Vasalar, but Gouda’s body could barely withstand it.

If the tip dipped even slightly into the abdominal muscles, the rest will be instantaneous―――――

“Don’t mess with meeeee!”

“Huh!?”

Dammit, went in too deep!? Need to create sdistance…… too slow. I was so focused on the Great Magic Spiral that I stopped in place.

“I’ve got yooooooou!!”

“Guh, ah!?”

While taking my Great Magic Spiral to the belly, Gouda rather forcibly moved forward, using his abdominal muscles to shatter my attack while it carved into him. Then he spread his arms wide and wrapped them around my back to holdtight.

No good. I can’t escape this restraint!

“Huff, huff, I could just crush you like this, but I’d rather smash you into a pulp from the top of your head!”

Gouda liftedover his head.

Not good. Are you going to liftup and slamdown like this?

This was certainly the sas Mr. Machio’s powerbomb.

If he does that to me, let alone on the top of my head…… Powerbomb?

“Here!”

“Ah?”

Immediately, I firmly clamped Gouda’s head with both legs and spun as if flying diagonally backward……

“【Great Demon Corkscrew Head Scissors】!!”

“Ngo!?”

Using the recoil, I slammed Gouda’s head into the ground by his horns.

“W, wow! B, Big brother! That’s amazing! It’s so fast I can’t understand it at all, but it’s amazing!”

“A, awesome…… so awesome! That’s amazing, Brother! Not only did he avoid all of Gouda’s attacks, but he even countered with a slam! That was awestoo! So cool!”

“W-what a dynamic yet fast-paced attack and defense…… I can’t keep up…… these two …….”

“Oh, oooooooh, could it be, from the ancient tomes… the Frankensteiner!?”

I almost died, but I survived because it was just like that time.

This was the technique I showed off in my battle with Mr. Macin Cacretale.

I asked Tre’ainar to teach me, but I thought I would never use such a flashy technique again except for that one fight with Mr. Machio.

“Damn it, for all your grit and swagger, you resort to nothing but tricks…… Earth! But…… what you do makesfeel good…… thanks to that, even with my body going crazy and feeling like I’m about to pass out… you bringback every time… ah, ah, hn?”

“Damn it, I slammed the Great Magic Spiral into his belly, and slammed his brain too…… even though it should have done sdamage, he got right back up…….”

I was able to pull out even such a technique in an instant.

No advice from Tre’ainar this time. But all of Tre’ainar’s teachings were now ingrained in me.
