754. [Sound of the End]

　With my vision turning red, I glared at Baal.

　I feel my sense of self becoming blurred.

　If you let your guard down, you'll be consumed by destructive impulses.

　I call upon myself, my purpose.

　I must defeat him and protect the royal capital of Alban.

　Slowly, numbers began to appear in my field of vision.

　This is Baal's current status.

　And my status.

　All the while, it continues to wear down rapidly.

　That's the price of the [Tone of the End].

　We need to defeat Baal quickly.

　HP and MP will run out.

　And even more than that, my own mind is being corroded by this skill.

　A random trumpet-like sound echoes.

　It's the sound of my magical power vibrating the air.

　It was an unpleasant sound.

　Every time I hear it, I feel my ego gradually fading.

　There is no time to waste.

　I kicked the ground and approached Baal.

"You're coming first! Very well, I'll fight back!"

　In an instant, I activated a light Gravity.

　I couldn't understand why I used it, but I realized too late that it was probably deployed as a countermeasure to ``proof of cat's absence'' based on experience.

　Baal disappears.

　However, the discomfort that arose in [Gravity] was perceived by me as the outline of Baal.

　Aiming at Baal who was trying to pass through me, I dug into his head with my [Dimensional Claw].

　Baal materializes and sprays black fluid from his mouth and eyes.

　See, I got it.

　I realized that my mouth had unconsciously tensed and I was smiling.

"That's stupid... Why did my skill, which has improved accuracy...?"

　fun.

　I'm going to kill this guy just like this.

　I slammed my left claw into the jaw, hooking it around the bone and lifting it up, pinning the guy down.

　With no way for the force to escape, he sunk his right claw into the victim's abdomen and slammed him into the ground.

　Baal's jawbone breaks and his bodily fluids fly out.

　I then pushed Baal to the ground with my right claw and flew low, scraping down on his body.

"Giii, Giiiiiiiiiiiiiii!"

　Baal roars in intense pain.

　Afterwards, his body shook violently along with the space and then he disappeared.

　The aim is to neutralise damage with [Quantum Cat's Choice] and launch a surprise attack.

　If so, it's coming from the back.

　I kick the ground and quickly turn around while deploying a magic circle.

　It defends itself by sticking out its front legs.

　His right front leg is crushed by Baal's claws.

　The surface of his body was torn, bones were broken, and the impact was transmitted through his arms to his chest.

『Hahahaha! The magic wasn't quite enough! It seems you've put in a bit of effort, but I have this skill! Don't get too cocky, dragon! I have already transcended all living things in all dimensions! Although I may have narrowly escaped death, I am the pinnacle of all things...』

"He's such a nasty guy, he keeps talking nonsense."

　With a quick slash of his tail, he launched Baal's body into the air.

　He was simply sacrificing his right front leg to ensure a successful counterattack.

　It can be quickly recovered by [self-regeneration] anyway.

　I aimed the Baal I had launched straight up into the air and fired the Gravidon I had prepared.

　An attack that compresses magical power using hyper gravity.

　Baal has no wings.

　Movement is restricted in the air.

　And I already know that gravity-based magic can't be penetrated by his [Cat's Absence Proof].

　It would be possible to avoid this using [Quantum Cat's Choice], but Baal, who has little MP remaining, would lose one of his remaining lives.

　Baal spun in the air and changed his trajectory, dodging the Gravidon.

『Don't underestimate me! It's too late for an attack like that now...!』

　I had already jumped up and closed the distance, slamming my claws into the guy's stomach, leaving it wide open.

"Gevattha...!"

　He continues to slam his claws into Baal's body in mid-air.

　That cat monster caused me a lot of trouble.

　I'll kill you here.

　Baal becomes invisible.

　At the same time, I activated my Dimensional Claw.

　I had a feeling that they would insert a ``Cat's Absence Proof'' around this time.

　You have a foul way of life, you are obsessed with your own life and look down on everything else, but no matter how strong your words are, in the end you will never make a decisive move.

　If Baal uses [Quantum Cat's Choice] here, he will have no room for MP.

　He was trying to somehow cover it up with his transparency skill.

　Little did he know that it would slowly but surely lead to his death.

"Giiiiiii!"

　The Dimensional Claw I unleashed tears through Baal, who was trying to escape.

　As Baal materialized, I immediately struck him directly with my opposite claw.

　Baal's body falls to the ground.

　I aimed my Dimensional Claw at the falling Baal, but his body disappeared in the air.

　My claws dug into the ground.

　This time he used Quantum Cat's Choice.

　Is it too late now?

　He's slow to make decisions.

　I immediately deploy a black magic circle.

　Suddenly, a ball of fire appeared in front of me.

　Before he could dodge, it was slammed into his face.

　He came flying in with his Fire Sphere activated.

　Half his face was blown off.

　I can't see with my left eye.

　I can't close my mouth.

　The left front leg that was outstretched was bitten off by Baal's fangs.

　Even with the ability to regenerate, a complete loss requires time and MP to heal.

　I aimed my right front leg at Baal, but he skillfully dodged it by lowering his head.　

"That worked! Don't let your guard down, you idiot!"

"You're the idiot."

　The hellish flame corpse arms of my deployed [Hell Gate] bound Baal's body on all sides.

　Baal's body is burned.

"A skill that summons hellish flames over a wide area...!"

　Baal's arrogance was in believing that an immediate attack after the Quantum Cat's Choice was an absolute safeguard.

　As long as you read that, you can safely let the ranged attack [Hell Gate] through.

　However, [Hellgate] is a skill that comes at a high cost in HP.

　If it can be avoided with [Quantum Cat's Choice], then we will be the ones who have no room to spare.

　However, in his tight spot, Baal had wasted his time firing [Cat's Absence Proof] in a panic and even used [Fire Sphere], so he probably didn't have the strength to use [Quantum Cat's Choice] anymore.

"S-Stop... Stop! After countless years... I have finally ascended to a truly absolute existence! In a place like this...!"

　Baal shamefully tries to escape from Mukuro's restraints with a ``Cat's Absence Proof''.

　There's no reason to overlook such an embarrassment.

　I pierced his stomach with my Dimensional Claw.

　Baal rolls on the ground, his eyes rolling back, body fluids and flesh spilling everywhere.

　His body is enveloped in a pale light.

"That's impossible... I am the God of War... the very concept of the world's strongest, the one who will continue to observe this world for all eternity..."

　The mask of Baal seemed to be in disbelief that he had been defeated until the very end.

[369,000 experience points were gained.]

[Thanks to the effect of the title skill [Walking Egg Lv: --], I gained an additional 369,000 experience points.]

[Level of [Apocalypse] has increased from 156 to 175.]

[The level of [Apocalypse] has reached MAX.]

[I got the title skill [Proof of the Strongest in the World: Lv--].]

　My status pops up in my mind.

"Grrrrrrrrr!"

　I hit my head with my front leg.

　My thoughts and ego are unstable.

　I somehow managed to restrain my destructive urges and keep myself together.

　That was close.

　Baal is no fool.

　If they had seen through the intensity of [Tone of the End]'s exhaustion and focused on defense and escape, there's no telling what would have happened.

　My sense of self is also becoming increasingly weak.

　If I had completely lost my mind, it's possible that he had set some kind of trap for me.

　In the end, it was fortunate that they used it as a final trump card at a stage when neither side had any spare energy left.

　But there was a problem.

　Unable to cancel [Tone of the End].

　I look up.

　The royal capital of Alban appeared in my bright red vision.

　A smile naturally comes to my face.

　-What's the problem if you can't release it?

　Baal was defeated anyway.

　There's no one out there who can stop me.

　With the remaining MP I have, I don't think there'll be any problem in wiping out the entire city within my field of vision.
