My Refrigerator Turned Into A Dungeon

Chapter 107.2



Chapter 107.2

The Queen's Death

Eventually

My vision darkened, and the intense vibrations subsided. Finally, I dismantled the mucus wall and peered out.

[Splash (Faaaaa~)]

A gust of wind rose from behind, and fresh air entered the vacuum-sealed passage.

[(Chirichiri Meramera)]

Gasoline remnants were still burning in places, but it was dark. The dungeon's glowing ceiling had been dirtied with a massive amount of soot.

"Yosoro. Huge slime-like mucus, advancing slowly"

I protruded my head from the giant mucus, resembling a situation where only the head was exposed, and slowly proceeded along the scorched dungeon passage.

Of course, pulling off such a stunt would naturally result in a significant decrease in magical power.

However, if the Fly Queen was still kicking after this, it would be the worst-case scenario. If it could casually unleash another [Maggot Tsunami], I would have to reform the mucus wall. I would have to admit defeat and escape.

Yeah, I've already used my trump card, so there's no other move I can make. Revealing my hand would be inevitable, but forcing a confrontation here would be disastrous.

"Mmm But that was impressive."

The power of the gasoline-filled drum canister bomb was tremendous.

[Fuhahaha! Did you see that? That's the triumph of chemistry!] I wanted to boast loudly, but honestly, it was a scene that made me cringe.

Moving forward revealed that the massive giant maggots had been cleanly blown away, and the dungeon's straight path looked as if someone had spilled a massive cream stew. The ceiling, the floor, and the walls were all covered in creamy-white chunks.

While the giant maggots had high attack power, they were blown away solely by the explosive force, just as their soft and squishy appearance suggested.

"Are these all the bodies of the giant maggots? Perhaps, did they dissolve due to the digestive enzymes they possess?"

It was a possibility. However, the damage was so severe that it was hard to say.

As I floated through the slime, the cream stew of the giant maggots emitted a faint golden light, which got absorbed into me. It was creepy but strangely mystical.

And

At the end of the passage, in the darkness, the Fly Queen was still standing.

"Mmm, so you were still alive"

However, its silver metallic body had wounds and missing parts all over, with flames flickering from its left shoulder and a thin smoke rising from its entire body.

[Ju shuuuu]

The surroundings got filled with soot, gasoline, and an unpleasant burnt hair smell.

Behind the queen, a mountain of dead giant maggot carcasses lay. In the midst of it all, the Fly Queen, barely standing, lifted its head.

Suddenly, it felt like our gazes met.

Considering it had compound eyes, it wasn't clear where it was looking. Still, it felt like we made eye contact.

(To remain standing after that explosion. I see. It must have found some way to defend against the giant maggot projectiles. But it finally couldn't block them and took a hit. Then, chased by the subsequent high-temperature blast, it gets burned.)

"Kisha! Gikii! (Damn!)"

For a moment, we locked eyes, and then the Fly Queen, with its missing arm flailing, started running towards me.

It's closing in. However, its movements were sluggish, as if the muscle tissue inside its exoskeleton had also been burnt, and a viscous yellow organ was oozing from its abdomen.

(Despite being in that state, It's not running away!? No, perhaps it knows it's going to die and intends to make a final stand.)

Either way, I would finish it off with precision.

"[Mucus Fade Out! Jumping Double Arm Chop!! (Buunn!)]"

"[Zam! Zudobisha!]"

The elongated reinforced arm swung down sharply.

It shaved off a chunk of the ragged Queen's arm from its shoulder.

[Don! (Zubushu!)]

Then, I charged into the motionless Queen, who had lost its arm. I slammed into its body, thrusting Excalibars into its heart.

"Gi Kii (Gobbo)"

Unidentifiable colored fluid sprayed from the Queen's mouth, and the right hand holding Excaliball felt the twitching spasms of its heart. I got it. Undoubtedly the vital spot. I had thoroughly searched with Aura Vision.

There was a response.

"[Gogiri]"

Finally, with the other Excalibars poised in my left hand, I placed it against its neck and spoke to the Fly Queen.

"Fly Queen You were exceptionally beautiful from a distance and the most terrifying enemy I've encountered so far. But it ends now. Offer everything to me and bring your life to an end. Now, activate it! Skill [Usurpation]!!"

Time stopped.

In the stopped time, the Queen's head slowly fell while rotating.

Then, from the Queen's collapsing body, several shimmering golden streams overflowed. The last challenge in close-quarters combat was to fulfill these conditions.

[Kyuwawaaaah! Sharararaaaah~]

Those streams of light danced and wriggled, and eventually, upon finding my existence, they entered my body.

I could feel it. Yes, it was the energy of life.

My heart danced, and my body temperature rose like it was on fire. As the streams of light disappeared into me, the surroundings darkened and became quiet.

[Garan, Gashashashan!]

Almost simultaneously with the complete disappearance of the light, the exoskeleton of the now-empty Fly Queen scattered on the dungeon floor with a clattering sound.
