Re:Zero -Starting Life in Zero

Just as Green was walking towards Elsa's body.

Click!

A snapping sound rang out.

Green suddenly lost all sense of his tail.

Looking back, he noticed that his thick tail, as thick as that of an adult anaconda, had been severed at some point.

The wound inflicted by Elsa's sharp northern scimitar has only now come to a head.

The grotesque flesh exposed by the fractured surface caused his dark golden vertical pupils to contract sharply, and a low, violent roar rolled from his throat.

Having regained her freedom, Mary immediately perked up and began constructing a magic circle with her hands as soon as she landed.

Pale blue magic patterns swirled and spread rapidly in her palm, a bright halo illuminating her resolute face, and the ground beneath her feet shone slightly from the magic's vibrations.

She also has a powerful magical beast waiting nearby; it is her trump card, the sharp blade that can tear through the current predicament.

At the same moment, Elsa, who had been almost cut in two, suddenly opened her eyes.

"Spartacus, this feeling of being on the brink of life and death is truly captivating..."

Black mist rose from the broken remains, like countless thin threads pulling the scattered flesh and bones back to the center.

The severed blood vessels and wounds healed automatically, and the spine snapped shut like a zipper.

In less than two heartbeats, the broken doll was reassembled by the unseen mischievous child.

Elsa rolled over and pulled out the spare scimitar that was placed at the base of her thigh.

This was the last weapon she had left.

"What a disappointment!"

She licked her lips, her crimson gaze shifting back and forth between Green and Merry, her scimitar deftly twirling between her fingers.

"I thought I could enjoy the near-death experience a little longer, but my body was in a bigger hurry than my brain."

Before she could finish speaking, Green had already completely erupted.

The excruciating pain of losing his tail transformed into the most surging rage. His demonic energy surged violently, and dark purple black mist swirled and enveloped his body.

He suddenly arched his back and slammed his front paws hard against the ground, causing the hard stone slab to crack.

Amidst the flying pebbles, he charged straight toward Meryl.

Taking out this backline unit that can control monsters is the most urgent task right now.

"Don't come any closer!"

Meili shouted at them sharply, her eyes filled with fear.

The magic circle in his palm had already taken shape, and the pale blue aura suddenly surged.

"Stop him, Boar!"

Boom—!

A deafening roar erupted from the depths of the forest, causing the thick ground to tremble violently.

Amidst billowing smoke and dust, a colossal monster, its body as large as a mountain and its shape resembling a hippopotamus, burst forth. Its grayish-brown rock armor gleamed with a cold luster, and its thick fangs pointed directly at Grin's face.

"Damn it, do you think I'm a coward?"

Green charged headlong toward the rock boar, his Forest Protection activated at full power, making him even taller.

The two giant beasts, each four or five meters tall at the shoulders, resembled two fully loaded transport vehicles colliding head-on.

boom!

The two collided, and the rock boar struck Green's lower body directly, the huge impact causing him to retreat continuously.

In the instant the excruciating pain exploded, Green completely suppressed his mania, his dark golden vertical pupils filled with icy ruthlessness.

He withstood the immense force of the rock boar's tusks tearing at him, his bone-spiky claws digging fiercely into the gaps in the rock armor of the giant beast's neck, his knuckles gripping the flesh tightly and refusing to loosen their grip even slightly.

The rock boar, gripped by pain and driven mad, halted its charge, unleashing its boundless brute force. Its short, thick limbs kicked so hard that the forest floor cracked open, leaving spiderweb-like fissures.

The enormous head thrashed wildly, trying to shake off Green who was clinging to it.

A man and a beast engage in the most savage struggle deep in the dense forest.

Dark purple demonic energy surged around Green like a tide, pouring into his limbs and bones. He arched his thick, wall-like body and wrapped it tightly around the rock boar's broad neck like iron chains.

Click, click!

The muffled cracking of bones echoed through the forest, and the scaled arms tightened inch by inch, like two icy hoops that shredded steel, gripping the beast's throat tightly.

The rock boar's roar gradually turned from a deafening howl into a hoarse, dying sob.

Extreme terror surged in his crimson pupils, and his thick fangs flailed wildly in vain.

In less than ten breaths, the rock boar began to suffer from oxygen deprivation.

The force of his limbs kicking grew weaker and weaker, his neck was squeezed so tightly that it sank deeper and deeper, blood and foam kept seeping from the cracks in the rock armor, and the hot, foul air mixed with desperate gasps sprayed all over Green's body.

Green's scarlet tongue licked the bloodstains on his cheek, and his dark golden vertical pupils were filled with murderous intent—he had actually strangled this thick-skinned rock boar to death with brute force alone!

"What are you pretending to be, some wild beast in front of me!"

The next second, he suddenly exerted force in his waist and back, his arms taut as steel, and actually managed to lift the several-ton behemoth's corpse onto his shoulders.

Green pushed off the ground with his toes, spinning and sweeping across the rock boar's corpse. The mountain-like beast's body transformed into the most savage weapon, carrying a gust of wind and splintered wood, and slammed down hard towards Meryl, who was not far away.

The shrubs and thorns in the woods were all snapped in half, and it looked like they were about to crush the terrified Mary into a pulp!

"Be careful!"

Elsa's sharp shout pierced the roar, and her scarlet figure turned into a blur, so fast that only a streak of light remained.

Just as the boar's carcass swept across her, her slender hand suddenly gripped the back of Mary's collar, forcefully pulling her away from the brink of death.

boom!!

The giant beast's body grazed the hem of Meryl's clothes and slammed hard into the ancient tree behind her, causing the trunk, which was as thick as several people could hug, to crack.

Wood chips and gravel shot into the sky, and dust instantly filled the air, splashing the two men and leaving them covered in grime.

Taking advantage of the smoke and dust as cover, Elsa raised her scimitar and with a "slash," chopped off her left hand, quickly handing it to Merry.

"Merry, wait for me at the base in the capital. This monster has already fallen into the category of force majeure."

After Elsa finished speaking, she hid the severed part of her left hand behind her back and walked towards Grimm with the knife in one hand.

Meryl's pupils contracted sharply as she stared at the severed arm, instantly understanding her intention.

Without hesitation, she trembled as she tucked the severed arm into her clothes. Pale blue magical runes reappeared on her palm, and a hurried, mournful incantation escaped her lips: "Show yourself, Shadowwind Wolf!"

A small, thin black wolf darted out of the bushes.

Mary struggled to climb onto the Shadowwind Wolf's back, gripping its mane tightly, her teeth chattering: "Go!"

……

"I'm curious, how many more times can you be resurrected?"

The giant beast sat half-sitting amidst the chaos, holding Elsa's body in its hand.

At this moment, the Bowel Hunter is as fragile as a figurine.

"Ahem!"

The overwhelming crushing force caused Elsa to bleed from her mouth and nose, but her efforts were not in vain, successfully buying Meryl precious time to escape.

"Mr. Beast... you're almost unfairly powerful. Next time we meet, I'll definitely cut open your guts..."

"next time?"

Grimm was puzzled, but upon closer inspection, he realized that Elsa was missing a hand.

Elsa's cheeks twitched, producing a "crack" sound as she bit down on the poison hidden under her tongue.

Then, Elsa's body began to turn black, starting from her mouth, and the blackening spread to the rest of her body.

The cursed doll is resurrected by attracting smaller pieces of flesh with larger pieces of flesh, and the unrecoverable flesh will consume surrounding magic to replenish itself.

If Elsa in Green's hands decays into ashes, she can naturally be resurrected from the severed limb that was sent away beforehand.
