Ch.8686. Vengeance Enters the Final Battle with Lecter

“Dorado, what’s all this commotion?”

Recter approached Dorado, who was controlling a massive magic sphere on the outskirts of the spaceship, and asked in an authoritative voice.

Dorado answered without turning to look at Recter.

“As you can see, I’m deploying combat units to annihilate the humans.”

“I don’t recall giving such an order?”

Recter strode purposefully toward Dorado, his cape fluttering behind him. His steps were laden with anger.

“Even if it was a declaration made to inferior species, it was an imperial decree. The duel with the human warrior is to take place after seven rotations of that planet. Do you intend to make me a liar?”

“Recter, they are dangerous.”

“What did you discuss with Gerogius?”

“Well…”

When Dorado hesitated to answer, Recter threatened him, emanating his aura.

“Even if you are my mentor, I will not forgive lies.”

“I would never dare lie to the Emperor of the Empire. He requested that I not interfere with your duel.”

“What welcome news! Then why are you deploying the entire army to that small star, and why is Gerogius returning to stop it?”

“Recter, there’s no guarantee he’ll give you the honorable duel you desire. They are a species that cannot control their desires.”

“There must be no warrior of his caliber!”

Recter expressed his anger by slamming his aura-filled fist into the floor.

Bang! Instantly, a portion of the massive ship was visibly dented even from a distance.

“I will head to that star as well.”

“I won’t stop you. But remember this. They will only bring you greater anger.”

Recter ignored Dorado’s words and moved toward his personal landing craft.

***

I made an emergency landing on the ground.

The location was Seoul. I didn’t have time to set a detailed entry orbit, but this is where I landed.

This is the main stage where most of the scenario’s events occur and where the final battle will take place.

If it’s fate, then so be it.

I was planning to conclude things with Recter here anyway, so this works out well.

“Geo!”

Lee Lu-a, who had been waiting, immediately ran to me. Lena and Boksil were with her.

“You always acted so confident, but I knew you’d mess up big time. What is all that? A flock of migratory birds that missed their season?”

Lena complained, pointing her fan at the Galaxy Empire’s spaceships entering the atmosphere. There were too many to count.

“Negotiations with Dorado broke down. He’s decided to exterminate humanity.”

“Hmm… Boksil isn’t human, so she’s fine, right?”

Lu-a pressed down on Boksil’s ears on top of her head, seemingly annoyed with her.

“Those falling from up there are all super-class combat units. They’re elites enhanced by Dorado’s magic.”

“Like what Eridanus made? Even one was so strong, and you’re saying they’re all super-class?”

“Are the supplies ready?”

“Of course,” Lena answered immediately.

“Order them to engage in battle across the world as assigned. The five of us will fight him here.”

“You mean Recter?”

I nodded at Lu-a’s words.

“Master, five of us?”

I tilted my head back. Han Somi was walking out of the spaceship with an escort squad.

“That’s not Ursula.”

“She looks strange. Is she a bad person?”

“You look strange too. What happened on the ship? I knew she was an ally, but how did you end up coming back together… huh?”

Lena and Boksil approached Somi with interest. But Lu-a stopped in her tracks, seemingly shocked after looking at her.

She must have seen Somi’s system window description.

“Hello, villains of Vengeance.”

Somi politely bowed to the three of them.

How should I introduce Somi to them?

Time is short, and I’d like to put it off for a moment, but since we’ll be fighting together from now on, it could affect our teamwork.

It’s best to start off on the right foot.

But I think it’s right to follow Somi’s will entirely.

“…You, could it be.”

Lu-a pointed at Somi with a trembling voice. Lena noticed something was off.

“Geo, now that I think about it, I haven’t heard. How did this strange person become an ally of Vengeance?”

Before I could explain, Somi beat me to it.

“Dark Matter, E.lena, Boksil. I have many names. The Galaxy Empire’s jailer Ursula, the Dark Kingdom’s female executive Morgan, and… S-class hero Pink Wings.”

“…Oh?”

Lena narrowed her eyes with interest. Lu-a tensed up, biting her lip.

“But now, please just know me as the human Han Somi. I am your ally.”

Somi pleaded with sincerity in her voice. Lena nodded in understanding.

“Alright then. Let’s see if we can devour them all together.”

Lena moved past Somi and took a combat stance. Lu-a protested.

“W-wait. Is that enough for you, Lena? We need more explanation…”

“Geo will surely take care of it later. Let’s focus on those things for now.”

“…Sigh. Fine.”

Lu-a turned to look at me. She seemed to have composed herself as well.

The entire evil sentai is ready to fight.

And finally.

Boom!

Galaxy Empire spaceships began their assault across the world. Super-class combat units ferociously emerged from within.

The war had begun.

“Ottawa, engaging in combat.”

“Melbourne, enemy count approximately 2,000.”

“Paris, under attack.”

Situation reports came in through communications. Seoul was no different. In the distance, flames erupted and buildings collapsed.

I controlled the situation without moving.

It would soon be time for him to appear.

This place, this point was a stage prepared solely for Recter.

Whoosh!

It didn’t take long for the pillar of light to appear.

Nor for Emperor Recter to display his majesty after it disappeared.

“Gerogius! I’ve been waiting for this day! I trust you will present me with the finest duel!”

He clenched his fists on both sides, exploding with aura. He was unleashing his fighting spirit.

This battle-crazed fool.

I’ll show him the end he so desperately wants.

“Everyone, disperse.”

Following my order, Lu-a, Lena, Boksil, and Somi moved in unison, disappearing from sight.

***

“Oh my God. Today is the end of the world.”

“Damn it. I don’t want to die, God, God.”

Around the world, many civilians and citizens were losing hope in their crumbling cities.

The Galaxy Empire’s combat units, which attacked in an instant, carried out destruction and slaughter without reason.

Their intensity and power were incomparable to before.

But that didn’t last long.

“Sweep them all away!!”

Villains advanced toward the super-class combat units in a formation trained like an army.

At the vanguard, swinging a staff with an iron ball attached, was Kang Wan, one of Vengeance’s commanders.

“First platoon, fire!!”

Following his order, SSS-class villains used specially crafted weapons suited to their abilities. Pink gas mixed with their powers.

Super-class combat units exposed to the cherry-colored cloud immediately straightened their backs, twisted their heads, and stopped their destructive actions.

“Now’s our chance, take them all out!”

The villains began to eliminate the neutralized combat units one by one. Citizens whose lives had been saved began to cheer for the villains who were spectacularly destroying the monsters.

“Yeah, that’s it!”

“This is what villains are!”

Kang Wan looked at his club, equipped with a Pestam dilution spray device.

“I can’t believe we can subdue these powerful creatures with just this. The Lord’s foresight becomes more impressive the more I learn.”

“What do you mean ‘just this’? The selection of materials and production were incredibly difficult. We have limited quantities, so use it sparingly. These creatures are more persistent than termites.”

Another SSS-class villain, Prism God, complained while advising Kang Wan. Kang Wan nodded and continued to smash the heads of the monster combat units.

“Woooah! Kill them all!”

“Villains are the only ones who can save the world!”

As the troops advanced, cheers grew louder in each city.

It was a moment when Vengeance’s name was rising higher and higher.

***

“You look gallant, Gerogius!”

Recter welcomed me with open arms. He was elated.

“I have invested much time and resources for this moment. I hope they have not been in vain. Well then, have you finally reached completion?”

This makes me laugh.

I felt no need to answer, so I immediately grabbed my belt and book.

[CLIMAX, REVELATION]

“Transform.”

There’s no time or reason to show off.

I’ll pour everything into tearing him apart.

I inserted the Armaggedon card into the belt.

[The End begins]

[Harmagedōn]

The Red Dragon of Apocalypse, having reached the final chapter, releases the demon to devour me. I transformed the oppressive sin into power under my control.

“Oh, I can feel it. I sense powerful fighting spirit from you, Gerogius!”

Recter charged at me, laughing heartily.

Still wrapped in that intense and powerful aura, with an arrogant combat stance without a single weapon.

Recter comes at me with honest fists, without a hint of deception.

Let’s see his strength.

I too swung my arm with all my might, using my left leg as the pivot.

Our fists collided and.

Boom!!

With the explosion, dozens of shockwaves arose, blowing away all the surrounding air and ground.

A whirlwind formed around us as air rushed into the momentary vacuum.

Recter and I continued exchanging blows.

Each strike had enough power to split mountains and evaporate rivers.

We’re evenly matched.

Crack!

During our exchange, I entered close combat with a joint technique. Recter escaped and aimed for my joints in return.

He’s immersed in the fight.

I sent a signal.

At that moment.

“—What?!”

Dark matter pressed down on Recter’s body, verbal commands bound him, guided missiles penetrated his armor, and he was afflicted with a poisoned state.

Realizing he had fallen into a trap, Recter let out an angry voice, unable to control his aura.

“You, Gerogius—!! How dare you taint an honorable duel!!”

Talk about honor.

Obviously, the rule for boss monsters is to gang up on them.
