NEETS
Chapter 44: The Truth

my punches and Gilgamesh's punches collided with each other, resulting in a tremendous explosion and shockwave.

we continued to fight blows so quickly, but somehow here I was getting cornered.

being near Gilgamesh is getting hotter, I don't know its power or how.just I feel like I'm getting close to the sun.

"R why are you? your punch is slowing down?" azazel asked in my mind.

"my hands felt very hot when they collided with Gilgamesh's punch" I replied

I lost my concentration and one punch of Gilgamesh landed on my face.

the punch was very strong and made me bounce against the wall.

"hey Blank.?. Instead of you being supposed to be stronger than this?. Why don't you use Thena's power?" asked Gilgamesh

staggering I stood and rubbed my mouth that was running a little blood from Gilgamesh's punch.

"it's not like I don't use it I just don't want to use it."

"why?" gilgamesh Sahut

"because my heart continues to ache if it uses that power."

after I said that without a second thought Gilgamesh immediately attacked me with his sun fist.

he hit me so hard that it made me lose consciousness.

suddenly I was in a dark room sitting cross-legged and in front of me a humanoid shaped like an ancient Egyptian god with a bird's head standing.

"you are always hesitant in fighting" said the man.

yes he is Azazel. a creature called the god of destruction that dwells in my body after I swallow Thena. The power is so great that it can affect my mind. only unfortunately he can not control my body.

"hey, Azazel do you have any advice to defeat Gilgamesh?" I asked

"give up your body let me take care of it" Azazel replied.

"ooo.. it can't. My body is mine personally you can't mess with ya."

"alright then, maybe he can help."

after Azazel said it was a brown-haired woman in armor. like a reliable fighter appeared. she was Thena. the sister of Gilgamesh.

"hey, Blank. Why are you two fighting. Is this all because you haven't told the real Gilgamesh?" asked Thena

"yes, maybe."

"don't hesitate anymore Blank. use all your abilities. My brother is strong maybe now even stronger.even stronger than you. but there is one weakness of him. You must have known it, right?"

there is one weakness of Gilgamesh: darkness at night he will lose his strength.

there is only something strange at this time, but now it is dusk.even the sun is almost sinking but the power of Gilgamesh is still at its peak.

do I have to create a very deep darkness? or maybe Gilgamesh has overcome his weakness.

suddenly a light shone and grabbed in front of me. My consciousness began to recover.and just as I opened my eyes a raw bogem glowed orange pointed towards me quickly.

I instantly used the power of my light footsteps and quickly dodged his attack.

to disrupt Gilgamesh's movements, I used my Daemon master's skill and took out the daemons from the ground.

The daemons I put out were 5 wolf Daemons. At the same time they directly attacked Gilgamesh, but Gilgamesh easily defeated the five of them.

but when I thought Gilgamesh was just an expert in melee attacks, it turned out that my estimation was wrong.

Gilgamesh suddenly made fireballs all around him, and he shot them towards the daemons.

I resisted the fireball attack with the destruction ball and managed to make the ball disappear.

I continued to buy time while recovering my wounds with healing skills. By continuing to preoccupy Gilgamesh with the Daemons.

after that I turned my ARK bracelet into a sword back and held it in my right hand.

then I used the power of Thena to manipulate the light form into a solid object and formed a sword in my left hand.

the light I used to make the sword was not ordinary light, but a sword with a purple light.yes it was a light sword that was fed with destructive power.I call it Destruction Sword

after that I summoned some Daemons who were still fighting Gilgamesh towards me. The Daemons fused with my body and enveloped me in an armor.

then I held up the sword in my right hand and said to Gilgamesh.

"Baiklaahahh!!! I won't mess around anymore.I'll give you the fight you want Gilgamesh!!"

when the Daemons were still besieging Gilgamesh I immediately lunged at him, and instantly because of my profession. Gilgamesh instantly unleashed all of his power and made the Daemons I controlled bounce off and disappear.

gilgamesh's body grew bigger and there was a yellow aura surrounding him. The aura was so hot that even the objects around him started to emit steam.

I immediately jumped towards Gilgamesh and swung the sword in my right hand, adding a slash of light.

Gilgamesh held him down with his punch so that my sword and Gilgamesh's hand clashed.

but my sword was restrained by the yellow aura surrounding Gilgamesh, my strength was not enough to penetrate that aura.

now this is the function of the sword of destruction or the sword of destruction in my left hand.This sword can destroy any material that touches it so I just try to slash the aura of Gilgamesh.

I quickly swung the sword in my left hand, and sure enough, the yellow aura that enveloped Gilgamesh was eroded and I managed to injure him a little.

Gilgamesh immediately raised his hand that was holding my attack, he immediately made a sun ball in his other hand and shot it straight at me.

I immediately held it back with my two swords crossing, but I still kept bouncing and flew up.

suddenly Gilgamesh disappeared from before me and appeared behind me. He raised his index finger and swung it horizontally.

after that, a yellow-colored light incision appeared and went straight towards me.

I can't avoid the attack but I still have a way to at least slow it down if not avoid it.

I changed the shape of my Daemon armor and changed it to surround me.

even so the Gilgamesh Attack still penetrated my defense, but I managed to deflect it a little.

damn if my points were enough to control the power of Thena I would definitely be able to make a stronger armor with that power. I too focused the selection of skills to the power of Azazel. you see, I think it's more useful because it strengthens my attack, but to fight a man like Gilgamesh the defense is necessary.

actually I can change my skill tree again but it takes a lot of time, and right now I can't focus on changing the skill tree that fast.

but even so I must still defeat Gilgamesh at all costs.

"hey R instead of beating him why don't we make him our friend" Azazel said in his mind

"but how?" much

"remember, said Thena. use the darkness. Use the power of your Daemon master.Create a large Daemon and swallow Gilgamesh into it. Then let me handle."

"can I trust you?" continued

while continuing to fight Gilgamesh I thought of a way.How to lock Gilgamesh into deep darkness?

but because of thinking about it I was even hit by a crushing blow Gilgamesh. One blow alone was very painful my body felt crumpled all.

I bounced and rolled on the ground so hard, after that I tried to stand up again.

suddenly Gilgamesh pulled out a giant fireball right above me. The haw was very hot and seemed very dangerous when hit by the fireball.even though I had the power of recovery.

"come and be swallowed by my purgatory Blaaaaankk!! it's revenge for the death of my brother and all my citizens because of you." shouted Gilgamesh.

from Gilgamesh's words I got the idea.he said "swallow" it got me a brilliant idea.

with my body still in pain.I quickly changed my skill tree.My Daemon and Destruction Sword armor disappeared, and I only relied on ARK swords.

"well done too."

after saying that the great attack of Gilgamesh came to me, and I couldn't avoid it either.

I took it for granted and my body was instantly engulfed by a light so hot and so bright.

the result of Gilgamesh's attack made a huge basin on the ground where I stood. A plume of smoke surrounded the place and closed off a little view.

with a little use of thea's power and also the azazel destruction force that surrounds my body I was able to protect myself even though I had to lose my hands and feet from being burned by Gilgamesh's attack.

even half of my body is still burning because of it.

from behind the puff of smoke I saw a big man approaching.it might be Gilgamesh. according to my plan he would definitely make sure of me first.

steam slowly came out of my body and my body began to regenerate, but Gilgamesh was already in front of me. he pointed his five fingers at me. after which a ball of light appeared from his hand.

the ball gets bigger and bigger and hotter as well.

"i'm gonna end your life here, Blank. This is all revenge for what you did to my family and my townspeople."

but this is what I wanted to make Gilgamesh near me this was my plan.

"i will also end it here Gil!!"

"what?"

I instantly activated the power of my Daemon master.A large black circle appeared surrounding me and Gilgamesh.

from that circle, sharp teeth and pointed appeared, then slowly rose and quickly a giant worm-shaped Daemon slowly swallowed us both.

"you're caught in my trap. Gilgamesh"

"what the hell is this?"

"this is your weakness. darkness.I call this style. upsolute dark."

not long after we were both swallowed into a deep darkness, my form was slowly disappearing from before Gilgamesh.

but there is something strange here. Gilgamesh's body is still in the form of a burly man.he should turn into a cowardly flattened man when in the dark.

"you think this kind of darkness will defeat me?. Yes it did for the old me. but for me now it's nothing"

Gilgamesh instantly emitted a bright light from all over his body like a glittering beam of sunlight.

"i don't know where you know my weakness, but it's too much."

"he knows me, brother."

suddenly the voice of Thena was heard, and it shocked Gilgamesh and me. Thena appeared in the form of a solidified light and formed herself.she came slowly and approached Gilgamesh.

I don't know why Thena could appear, but it certainly wasn't my strength, but I remembered Azazel's words telling me to give it all up to him.

I hope it's one of Azazel's abilities, otherwise I could be in trouble.

"Thena what's really going on? why did Blank kill you?" ask Gilgamesh

"what do you mean Brother Gil, Blank even saved me and the citizens.well, although it is actually too much to destroy our city." replied Thena.

"what?! there's no way this must be an illusion. There's no way Blank can save you."

after that Thena also told Gilgamesh everything if in fact the mastermind behind the plague in his city came from his own family.

and what's worse is that even I didn't know it myself. It turns out that the plague-carrying snail was actually given by King Hart.he gave the snail to the ancestors of the Thena family. but the ancestors of the Thena family could not at all tell that to their successors.

"if Blank's goal is good, why did he sacrifice you and the citizens? why isn't he looking for a solution to stop the outbreak?" ask Gilgamesh again.

Thena continued the story again if it was her wish, because she had also contracted the plague.

looking for an antidote for the plague would be very long, and also feared the greater the transmission then Thena chose to be eaten by me. after knowing that I was a high-level Ghoul.

after that the citizens of the town where Gilgamesh lived sprang up in the form of a compacted light.they all appeared to form a line in front of Gilgamesh.

"i, not but all of us. We were not killed by Blank, brother Gil, but became one with him and gave our lives to him to continue so that we would not suffer more" Thena said.

"i, I do want you guys to be happy but, but this is not the way! I still don't accept this!" reply Gilgamesh.

after that the bodies of Thena and the citizens began to disappear like droplets of dust flying. From behind the diffuse light I appeared before Gilgamesh.

"sorry I didn't tell you this before, and you hate me Gil." I said.

Gilgamesh hit me until I fell and fell.

"i still hate you fools! I still don't accept my treatment of my family, but since I already know who the real bastard is here, I will ask for your reasons why you want to fight him. that guy he was so scary you know" Gilgamesh said.

"well, if you mean that man is King Hart, there are so many reasons that I want to beat him up" I replied

I then told Gilgamesh that King Hart had done a lot of evil to everyone, including me. I said that my friends were killed by King Hart easily. he was willing to do anything to achieve his goals, including slaughter, even though I wanted to defeat him and teach him a lesson.

after I told Gilgamesh everything, he finally wanted to work with me.

I opened the prison of upsolute dark, and just after upolute dark opened an arrow suddenly hit Gilgamesh.

"Gil!!" yell at

"alright, all right, there seems to be a traitor here, I won't allow that" said the archer Juna.

damn how did they know when I had planned an impromptu attack after successfully deceiving the other warlords.

"your plans will be of no use because I've seen them all" said the little boy named Jeni.

Gilgamesh pulled an arrow from his body and said to me.

"don't worry Blank. It's just an ordinary little arrow.it's nothing to me. Let's just beat up the three of them and head straight to where King Hart is" Gilgamesh said.

"alright, but you can call me R. That's my real name."

"well, it's up to you"

well even though my body has not fully recovered but the obstacles ahead are still one more.I have cooperated with Gilgamesh and just defeated the 3 warlords in front of me. after that I'll find Lana and beat King Hart's ass and put an end to this.
