Chapter 61 The end of revenge

 

About a month ago. When he found out about the rebellion Gillius was plotting, he was confident in his victory.

A few days ago. When Minister Gustav abandoned him and disappeared, he still believed in his victory.

A few hours ago. When the signal for the rebellion was raised, he had not a shred of doubt about his victory.

But, in this moment. When Kyrie made his heart burst, he sensed his defeat for the first time.

The moment I extracted it, his heart began to regenerate. The wounds healed as well. It's because the Gift Sphere of Healing is still under Brutogyu's control. However...

"Explode, Brass, Tooo!!"

-Boom!

His heart boiled and burst into pieces, revealing a pale green gem inside. I wiped away all the blood and flesh, completely detaching it from him. If my guess is correct...

-Squish.

"...Phew, that's good."

The left arm that Brutogyu had sliced was now fully restored. It felt a bit weird, though. It was a gamble, but it seemed like control of the Gift of Healing had safely transferred to me.

"F-Fool...! Return it!!"

"There's no way I'm giving it back. You're finished."

I passed the sphere to my newly grown left arm and extended my right hand. This guy was desperately trying to remove the sword that was still stuck in me. No way was I going to let him pull it out; I would never let him escape.

...It hurt so much that I felt like vomiting.

"S-Stop...! I am the symbol of absolute power that must not lose...! Don't touch it, stop...!"

"Shut up, idiot."

I touched his impressive abs with my fingertip.

"Ah, ahh...! Ahhhhh...!!"

In an instant, boiling magic power spread throughout Brutogyu's entire body. I only heated the epidermis, though. I just let the thin skin bubble.

"Agghh, giiiaaaaahhhhh!!"

He released the sword and collapsed miserably. I pulled out the sword still impaled in my abdomen and threw it aside. The wound closed up in no time, but it hurt like hell.

"...Now then, I'm not going to kill you easily, okay?"

There's no way I'll let him off easily. I'll make him taste a hundred times the suffering that my family and the villagers endured, all combined.

"N-Not yet! I will not yield! I am stronger than anyone else...!"

"What are you blabbering about?"

I gave the struggling scum a hearty kick to the head, making his entire body froth and writhe.

"You've already lost. The fact that you're rolling in front of me is proof enough."

"I... I won't admit it...! I won't aaaaacknowledge itttttt!!"

Wow, is he trying to stand up in this condition?

With his entire body burned and blistered, he clenched his fist and tried to punch me. His spirit still hadn't broken.

...I see. In that case, I'll have to break it. Snap him in two, and then I'll kill him.

"Nuoohhhhh!!"

A wild, desperate punch. Like that would hit. I easily dodged it and delivered a counterpunch to his boiling belly.

-Thud!

"Guuh... Ahhh..."

"It's not over yet."

As Brutogyu fell backward, I rained down a flurry of body blows onto his belly. With all my strength, over and over, again and again, and again and again.

"Gubo, gua, gyabaa, gyaa!!"

It's as if his internal organs burst. Brutogyu collapsed, spewing blood from his mouth, lying spread-eagle on the ground. Not yet, it's not enough yet.

Straddling his boiling abdomen, I repeatedly punched his face. You're wondering if my legs aren't getting too hot? They are. But the Gift Sphere of Healing will take care of any burns.

"Guaah, guooh! I... I am... I... strong..."

"For goodness sake, just admit it. You've lost. It's not about numbers, you lost to me alone. If you had lost with numbers on your side, maybe you could have made excuses."

Even the punches hurt, and they're hot. My skin is tearing, and blood is flowing. But it's okay because the Gift will heal it.

-Crack, snap, thud!

Brutogyu's face, continuously hit, started to deform. His mouth is in tatters, making me wonder how many teeth he has left. But I won't stop, I'll keep punching.

"You, who treated a hero like trash, and ruined the lives of so many people. My family, everyone!!"

-Thud, thud, crack, squish!

"I... I..."

Oh no, he's about to lose consciousness. That's not good; I need him to stay conscious until the end. I pressed the Gift Sphere of Healing that I held in my left hand against Brutogyu's body and transferred control. At the same time, I let the magical power I had been circulating on the surface flow through his entire body at full strength.

"Agh, giiiiiiiaaaaaaahhhhhh!!"

Every organ, flesh, and even his brain, his whole body was boiling while regenerating. This way, it'll be too hot and painful for him to pass out.

"Admit it, you're just trash. Apologize for everything you've done and ask for forgiveness."

"Gyiaaaahhhhh, stop, stop!!"

"Stop?"

Should I keep him in this state, constantly boiling while recovering, forever in an underground dungeon? That's not a bad idea, but in the end, I want him to die. I want him to suffer to the fullest, regretting his existence as he dies.

"Come on, if you don't admit it, this will continue indefinitely. The suffering will be worse than death. How about I tie you up in the underground dungeon and make you suffer forever?"

I suggested the idea like I had just come up with a brilliant plan.

"Sto...stop it, please... just kill meeee!!"

"Well then..."

"Please forgive meeee! I've lost, I've lost, I'll apologize, please forgive meeee!!"

...Hmm, he still sounds pretty arrogant. But well, that's fine. I achieved my goal of breaking his spirit. Now, I'll make him suffer and die slowly.

"Okay, that's enough. But I want you to suffer as much as possible, so I'll let you simmer slowly."

"Yaaah, stop, pleeeease, kill meeeee!!"

After letting go of the Sphere and taking back control, I made him boil as slowly as possible. Slowly, gently, I'm going to take my time melting his body.

"Aaaaahhhhhh!"

Simmering slowly, prolonging the suffering as much as possible. Continuing to let out the death throes' screams, and in the end…

"Ah, ahhh, ahhhhh..., ahigg..."

Brutogyu died. The corpse boiled, the flesh melted and only the bones remained in their place.

...Finally, I did it.

"I did it. I did it. I avenged them. I did it, Mom, Claire. Did you see that?"

I've been working so hard for this for so long, my goal. I've finally done it, I've done it.

"...hahaha, hahaha, hahaha, hahaha."

Laughter spills out naturally. Oh, it's true. After taking revenge, you can truly laugh from the heart for the first time. I've always thought so, and it's true.

"Ahahahahaha! Ahahahahahahahaha!!"

It was supposed to be like that, but why am I not enjoying it at all? Why am I laughing while shedding tears?

"Haha, hahahaha... Ugh, uaaaaaaah!"

I don't understand. Completely confused, I raised my voice and cried.
