In A Parallel World With Random Skills, I Reluctantly Become A Mafia Boss?

Chapter 16: Midnight

I literally couldn't see their two-pronged attack, as anything but a joke. Are they messing with me? This kind of strength was stronger than before, I will give you that. But the difference in my eyes right now, was only a slight boost.

Funny, I was expecting more out of someone who kept babbling about being a knight who transcended humans, looking down on them. I doubt there was really a human under that armor now. He may be a dragon in human skin? I don't know for sure.

In any case, this level of strength was growing smaller as time passed. Oh wait, that must be because I was still growing. It wasn't them getting weaker, it was my own self getting stronger. I really am abnormal, huh. Well, that didn't matter at the moment.

"Are you scared, human Saikyou!? Witness the power of Grandiore and my combination attack! Don't even think of running away from this!"

You're really pumped up aren't you, you battle-crazy knight.

Even though you're looking like a kid to me right now, maybe even weaker, you're still that haughty huh. I guess it wasn't right to think this because it was rude but this guy had to be given his dues. If I leave him like this, he will still repeat his actions, and won't ever change his haughty attitude and views towards the human race.

My current choices were, block, dodge, or counter-attack.

The first one is troublesome, since the dragon was already aiming at me with a range attack, and the second choice would entice another futile attempt even more.

Guess that leaves me no choice...

I'll just use just enough to blow them away and break all of their limbs, assuming dragons even had limbs. That snake-like creature was out of the norm on my information about dragons in games. But, I'm sure it'll be fine.

I surveyed the area with the map to check for any innocent bystanders, or random beasts roaming around, but I couldn't find anyone for miles around, fortunately. It seems I've taken enough time monologuing due to my rapid thinking speed.

I start to chant..

"From the void, you were born, and to the void, you shall return..."

Waiting for the exact moment the breath is released, I mutter these words under my breath. Although, I could tell that Zetsuen caught me chanting, it didn't matter that much this late in the game. I watch the beast's inner mouth releasing a chilling ray of bluish white light right towards me at a speed faster than Zetsuen.

It's too slow for me to even compare them though.

".....<<Nullification>>"

With an abrupt signal, the breath dissipates into the nothingness, and the sword clad in lightning and flames lost their luster and evaporated into thin air. I can guess by the dumbfounded look on Zetsuen's face, that it also nullified his enchantment skills.

What a scary skill. It's mine though.

"What...just happened...my power....gone.."

"......"

I didn't take the time answering him not because it was troublesome to reveal my cards to an enemy, but mostly I thought that sealing this mouth of mine, that only makes things worse is prudent. Yep, let's do this quickly.

".....In an instant...in an instant..."

I ignore the muttered words of Zetsuen who had lost strength in his legs, and was now sitting on the ground in disorder. His head was lowered in shame, and I can feel no fighting spirit coming from him, the him who couldn't believe what was happening. I might sympathise with him losing his pride over this, if he wasn't hostile to humans.
