Origin Of Evil 40 Tenacious

But Dorian now understood the issue of there being too much mountain energy mentioned by the system. But there was nothing he could think off that could help him. But he had to try something, because he knew that if the white energy was destroyed, the mountain energy would destroy his body from the inside and absorb him like the other corpses.

He left his meditation state and opened his eyes. He was currently inside the heart, and he couldn't move a muscle. But as he looked at himself he was horrified. His skin had melted off and his row flesh was being eaten.

Dorian forcefully calmed himself down and opened his status, to search for any way of coping with what was happening to him.

[Equipment: …]

He was surprised by his HP, losing his skin wasn't as terrible as he thought, but still losing 30 HP so quickly…

Also, finally losing that Hypothermia status was a good thing, that is if he can get out of this alive. He looked at his abilities but couldn't find any that would help him with this. Then, he remembered his Vitality.

It was indeed glowing, because it had crossed the 20 stat limit. He hurriedly opened it, and like last time he had two options this time:

[Resilient: Any form of damage is reduced by 10%]

[Tenacious: Any negative status effect is lessened by 10%, with some chance of negating lesser ones.]

Had it been normal times, he would have of course chosen the [Resilient] sub ability because it reduced all damages even those of negative status effects, but right now the other one was the only choice for him, so he selected the [Tenacious] sub ability. Maybe that it would be able to negate that mountain energy?

Dorian didn't see any difference outside his body so he decided to check inside. And somehow, his white energy had become stronger, and the speed of erosion from the mountain energy had slowed down.

He was happy about it but still worried because eventually the white energy wouldn't be able to sustain itself anymore.

Looking back at his status, he searched everywhere for a solution, until he found something. He had no idea of whether it would work or not, but he could try. That was the skill [Force Share]. Its description was that it could control the energy in his body and use it for another action. The mountain energy wasn't his, but he could use the force of the punch of his enemies so maybe it could work.

He activated the skill, aiming his attention on the orange energy. And it miraculously worked! The energy began being siphoned towards his left arm, filling it with energy.

But as he absorbed it, the Heart of the Mountain tried to fill the void left, sending in even more energy. Dorian could feel his arm was aching, but he continued absorbing it. He did it five times, consuming a lot of the mountain energy. But his arm was hurting too much this time, and he had to evacuate the energy lest he wanted his arm to explode.

Maybe because of the immense power granted by the mountain energy acc.u.mulated in it, he could now move his left arm freely. So he did the best thing he could think of, he punched. He was currently inside the heart, so maybe he could destroy it from the inside.

He punched with a strength and speed he had never seen or felt before. It was in fact so fast that he couldn't even follow his punch, and only saw the result. All the energy was ejected from his fist and struck the Heart.

Dorian feared it couldn't damage the heart because it was its own energy, but it seemed he worried for nothing. The heart immediately cracked open and the energy rushed out of it, dispersing in the water around. But it seemed it wasn't the same mountain energy anymore, but instead changed into kinetic energy.

Even though the Heart was cracked, it wasn't broken and still kept Dorian inside it. Dorian wanted to use the same tactic, but he was afraid. The earlier punch was stronger than any punch he could ever do with his current body.

So much that his entire arm was hurting, his muscles were close to tearing and bones to break. It was greatly injured. For now it was fine, as he could probably recover if he recovered his HP.

But what if it didn't? Then he would have lost an arm. Now, if he does the same tactic, then he either the same arm, thoroughly crippling it, lessening the chances of using it ever again, or used his other arm and ran the risk of losing the usage of both his arms.

As for his legs, it was out of the deal. He could do without one of his arms, but not without one of his legs.

But what choice did he have, he didn't want to die. So it was with reluctance that Dorian directed the mountain energy towards his left arm, again. He pain was even worse than before, but Dorian knew he had to hold on.

Three circles of energy restoring after, his arm was hurting like h.e.l.l, but the Heart had almost no energy anymore. Using his flame left in the white energy, he tried to command it into attacking the mountain energy.

And it actually did. The mountain energy was quickly exterminated in his body, more was trying to come in but the white energy kept it all out easily. Dorian knew this was only a temporary solution as soon the white energy would get depleted, but that was fine.

Dorian drew out his fist, and punched out. Instantly, a force only slightly weaker than before struck out. But even though it was a little weaker, the Heart was weakened by a lot and already cracked. So without surprise, it couldn't resist the punch and shattered in pieces, as if it were solid.

Said pieces began getting absorbed by the water around, and would certainly form a new core in thousands if not millions of years.

As for Dorian, he had regained control of his body and senses, and was in a very bad shape. His left arm was thoroughly broken and crippled, every bone in it broken in many pieces and his flesh turned into paste. Even his skin was pierced by shards of his bones.

His skin had disappeared, and the pain was finally registered by his brain. His row flesh exposed to the acid like hot orange water felt a hundred times worse than lemon juice on an open wound.

Dorian tried to struggle out of the water, but he was too tired to move. Dorian began despairing, was he going too die after all of this?

But as he raged about his death, he suddenly felt his blood boil. With a quick look inside his body, he saw the white energy spread to every part of his body and merged with it, healing it.

At the same time, a notification appeared. Hearing it, Dorian said to himself "To think I of all people would get this…"
