The Last Ruler: The Return of the Goddess
Detoxification

A moment ago, in the labyrinth.

Altair was left there alone after previously fighting Riol, he just fell silent on the ground without showing any movements. The poison spread rapidly within him. Only silence remained in that place after Altair fell.

But then, Zico who had previously re-entered the space dimension opened a portal and came out before Altair who was lying helplessly. Zico looked at his face carefully, as he tilted his head with a puzzled expression.

Altair remained motionless, even though her eyes were as open as ever, her gaze was blank somewhere. His previously irregular breathing also improved. Zico knows the reason...

Kyu~

He moved closer, then climbed up on Altair's back. The piercing arrow restrained Altair's consciousness. The arrow that continued to inject poison bit by bit into his body, and the body of Altair that by itself offered the poison. And it interferes with Altair's consciousness-gathering process, which focuses on detoxifying toxins.

If left unchecked, Altair will continue like that until the poison is spiked and the arrow disappears. And it must have been a long time..

Zico stared at the arrow by surrounding him, there was no poison outside, which meant that he was inside. Therefore, Zico opened his mouth and bit the arrow. He pulled it hard enough with his mouth that the arrow was plucked from Altair's back.

Altair's body was slightly jolted as he retracted the arrow, probably from being shocked by the pain. And slowly, the light returned to his two eyes.

Kyu..! Ky.. Kyu~

Zico kept calling out to him, even jumping up and down Altair's back to wake him up. Then...

" Huh..?!!"

Altair suddenly wakes up to Zico's surprise and is thrown off his back.

" Ukhh." he held his head with a contorted expression hinting at the pain, as he then turned his gaze to Zico who was beside him. " Ziko... How long has it been??"

Altair recalled the time he was attacked with a poisoned arrow, after which he did not remember much. And seeing that Zico was there now Altair was convinced that he had pulled the arrow and that time had passed.

Kyu...

" 20 minutes..?? That's been too long. Zico, open the portal to his space."

Altair said so at the same time as himself who was trying to get up. He had to chase after the person who attacked them before falling victim to another.

And so it was, how Altair could exist outside of the labyrinth at this time.

The situation there suddenly turned silent after his arrival, for one it might be surprising since he was fine. Others were grateful that he was fine, then... Some wondered why he was just out alone.

Karol was part of the last group...

" Why are you alone, where are the others?!?"

While Altair who was asked was just a relaxed expression and then touched his nape, "Ah... They're fine." he said later.

" I brought everything, including that annoying woman" he continued lazily.

Altair snapped his finger, as the space portal opened within Mira and Yi's panghalang there. His friends, including Ninia and two others, came out of the portal and fell on the ground. Making the people who saw also back surprised and relieved at the same time.

In addition, Ninia who had the lightest injuries was conscious first, and she had seen everything Altair had done. He tried to get up there and then looked at Altair...

" You can open a dimensional portal... Then why are you following a duel like this, instead of directly focusing??" tanyanya even though it looks difficult.

" Hm... Well, I also want to know what it's like in there. It also had nothing to do with you." and Altair then casually acknowledged it.

" What the fuck do you mean..."

" You don't understand it's not a problem, anyway..."

Psyutt..!

Altair's words stopped because of the arrow shot, Riol who saw the negligence between them took advantage of the opportunity there and immediately shot.

Luckily Altair can avoid it with a distance that almost hit, even so his cheeks feel sore because of it.

Altair rubbed his cheek and stared at the red liquid in his hand that came from there, he began to look at Riol more seriously.

" You're the same." and Riol befell him with an expression that started to turn serious as well.

Seeing Altair survive such a poison convinced him that he was no ordinary person.

" I don't know how you survived, but it's pretty impressive."

" Did you know..? The term for a metabolic pathway that reduces the levels of toxins from within the body, by absorption, distribution, biotransformation and excretion of toxin molecules..."

" ....I know."

" Detoxification... I am a person who can absorb all kinds of poisons and purify his own."

It's unusual, people who are immune to toxins are usually people who have long consumed the poison, or people who have healing abilities. Even so, they still can not be separated from the name of side effects.

" I'm not sure about it." and Riol doesn't believe in it.

He threw three balls of poison at Altair to test what he said. Altair simply stared at it silently, and just after the balls hit the ground under his feet, they exploded and enveloped him with poison smoke.

" Haha... How about that! It was a poison stronger than the one before!."

Riol was sure he would not survive, but when the smoke began to fade, he glared in disbelief at what he saw. Altair was still standing there unmoved.

" It's impossible! How can?!"

" I told you that your poison is no longer useful to me."

" Try this one then!." he took out a cylindrical stick from his back, which instantly turned into a sizable cannon. " I will risk my honor as a famous poison maker!" he said later.

He again sprayed the Altair in front of him with gas, which this time was green. But the result remains the same.

But she was quite persistent, Riol not only did it once, but many times with different and colorful poisons.

Still doesn't work...

" That-it's impossible... Are you a human?!!" Riol couldn't believe what he saw there now. The girl was not normal, that was what she had in mind right now.

" Are you done??" Altair then asked there, "Then it's my turn-..."

Zigz!

" ....You don't mind, do you?"

Altair moved faster than before, and in the blink of an eye he had been in front of that person. That speed was almost the same as the speed that Remilia used in her prime condition.

That speed surprised others.

Altair who had been in front of that person, pointed her hand at Riol's face, and in one short movement... Altair pushed and smashed his head on the ground.. Brakk!

Quite a loud bang appeared there, and a few inches of the ground around them were destroyed. Riol who was attacked quickly like that could not dodge and he was now sprawled helplessly on the ground.

While Altair raised his hand from Riol's face and straightened his body, he stared around filled with poison for a moment and clenched his hand clasping the air. When his spear appeared in his hand.

Altair turned the spear in his hand, and he stuck it on the ground. In a short moment, the spear shone out a pure aura and cleared out all the poison present in an instant.

People were staring at him dumbstruck, it was an incredible thing that they saw there. As for his other friends, they were no longer surprised that Altair had anything else he could do.

He was a figure with unequaled strength...

Even Ninia was aware of this and could not speak anymore. Seeing the extraordinary things Altair could do there, made him able to see his opponent more clearly.

" I'm no match for him..."

'Before absolute strength, he was nothing. There is no way that anyone can defeat him, unless there is a miracle that can happen.'
