"Lin Nai... will he be okay?" Stelle looked at Kizuna. And what was that giant dragon?
Kizuna's expression did not look good either. "Hard to say. That's a Doomsday Beast, the Anti-Matter Legion's anti-planet weapon."
"What we need to worry about most right now isn't the Doomsday Beast, but the Great Annihilator."
"It's okay. Lin Nai will be fine." Asta took a deep breath.
He had faced an Aeon head-on before.
He would definitely be fine.
In space.
Lin Nai tried to open his mouth and make a sarcastic remark, but sound could not travel through space.
Too bad he did not know Ultra Telekinesis.
But this Doomsday Beast... it had probably come after Stelle by scent, right?
There should not be any Emanators of The Destruction nearby.
The instant he saw this thing, Lin Nai felt as if his DNA had started to stir.
It was that kind of feeling.
The urge to slice it into a thousand pieces with an Ultra Guillotine.
But why?
Forget it.
His energy bar had not fully recovered yet.
But in the universe, Lin Nai could feel his energy slowly replenishing.
It was much faster than replenishing sugar or drinking milk tea.
Lin Nai stretched out a hand and crooked a finger at the Doomsday Beast.
You... get over here!!!
The Doomsday Beast let out a silent roar at Lin Nai, spread its wings, and charged at him.
Vertical Guillotine!
A pale-blue crescent-shaped blade of light shot out, striking the Doomsday Beast like a tiny speck.
How should he put it?
The power was enough.
But the size was not.
That was a little annoying.
Lin Nai leaned back and accelerated, swiftly evading the Doomsday Beast's charge before following up with a Horizontal Guillotine.
Let me think...
The Doomsday Beast's left hand was quantum, its right hand was imaginary, and its core was an engine powered by Dark Matter.
He had used this thing for nuclear explosions plenty of times back then.
He remembered a little.
The core...
Aim for the core.
Seeing that its attack had missed, the Doomsday Beast roared and attacked again, following up with a dragon-tail sweep!
Bang!!
Lin Nai braced the Doomsday Beast's tail with both hands and grabbed hold of it, gathering an Ultraman Disc Blade in one hand!
After realizing it was not big enough, he poured in a massive amount of energy.
But if he kept going, it would become a little hard to control.
He thought rapidly.
Lin Nai threw out the Ultraman Disc Blade.
Sever!!
The Doomsday Beast sensed something and tried to resist, but it was too late!
Lin Nai's Disc Blade sliced off the entire tail of the Doomsday Beast.
It drifted through space.
The Doomsday Beast swung a paw at Lin Nai.
Lin Nai accelerated, pulling dozens of meters away as if he had blinked through space.
That's it?
You're not much of a Doomsday Beast, are you?
Lin Nai cast a contemptuous glance at the Doomsday Beast before him and raised his middle finger.
It sensed Lin Nai's disdainful gaze.
The Doomsday Beast grew even angrier. A mere tiny insect!
Since when did insects dare speak?!
Isn't that right, Baru?
Realizing that it was charging up, Lin Nai glanced at the Space Station behind him and decisively turned into a streak of light, drawing its line of attack away.
That was to avoid hitting the Space Station's shield.
He did not know where the Herta Space Station's shield limit lay.
But taking fewer hits was always better.
The Doomsday Beast folded its wings inward, pale-blue patterns radiating a dazzling light.
It looked as though a magic circle had appeared behind it.
Then.
The Doomsday Beast spread its wings wide!
Golden lasers blasted out from the magic circle!!
They shot straight at Lin Nai!
Lin Nai did not choose to evade. He simply spread his arms and took all the lasers head-on with his body.
Passive: Absorption Ability, activated
Boom!!!!
Lin Nai felt the immense energy and absorbed it bit by bit.
The violent power surged through his body.
It gave Lin Nai the illusion of... a stomachache.
As if he had eaten something unclean.
Mm...
In a sense, it really was something unclean.
Random Skill: Nebast Light Ray (Burst Ray) Congratulations, Host. Your body is now fully capable of supporting your use of rays. At the same time, wide-area damage skills will soon become more common among your random skills. Please use them carefully.
Hah... finally!
A trace of golden light flashed through Lin Nai's eyes after he finished absorbing it, but it quickly returned to normal.
He stared at the Doomsday Beast with his now crimson eyes.
It was about time to end this.
When the Doomsday Beast saw that Lin Nai had taken one of its blasts without dying, it did not hesitate and began charging up again.
Lin Nai neither dodged nor retreated, instead beginning to gather the energy of the universe.
When the Doomsday Beast unleashed Doomsday's Descent once more, he assumed a starting stance and dodged the golden lasers one by one.
At the same time, he charged toward the Doomsday Beast's core!
When he arrived before the Doomsday Beast's core, Lin Nai did not hesitate any longer.
He formed his hands into an almost L-shaped pose and unleashed the Super High Heat Destruction Ray!
He fired it directly against the core!
The crimson beam pierced through the Doomsday Beast's body in no time.
Boom!!!!
Then.
The Doomsday Beast completely exploded in the universe, devoid of all life.
Lin Nai flew out of the flames.
He also returned to his original state.
Nice!
Soloed the Doomsday Beast!
Lin Nai: Black Tower? When Did She Get Here?
As expected.
After Lin Nai returned, Asta gave him an earful.
He had run off without saying a word to fight the Doomsday Beast. What if something had happened to him?
"I know the situation was urgent then! But you could at least have said something! Just running off without a word..."
"If I said anything, you definitely wouldn't have let me go..."
"...Don't interrupt!"
Asta puffed up her cheeks and lightly smacked Lin Nai on the head.
After that.
The atmosphere fell silent.
Neither of them spoke.
"Ahem."
"?" * 2
Hearing the sound, the two of them looked over.
Black Tower had appeared beside them at some point, tilting her head as she examined them both.
"Black Tower? When did you get here?"
"Just now."
Black Tower rubbed her smooth chin. "When you blew up the Doomsday Beast outside."
"Oh, that was pretty fast."
"Mm... though it looks like your body has developed some more weird abilities."
Black Tower reached out and touched Lin Nai all over. "Come to my office later for a physical examination."
