"But I wasn't in the cursed body just now; it seems I was in another place."
It was a pitch-black, deep hole, and there was nothing there except for those tentacles.
Taiichiro nodded and said.
"That's right, if you're inside a cursed body."
I might not be able to save you.
But just now, I could sense your presence right in front of me.
Although the aura was very faint, I still managed to detect it.
So I slashed at the air, not knowing if it would actually work.
Looking back, I guess I made the right bet.
Ron said with a hint of helplessness.
"That curse is extremely powerful."
Even now, we still haven't been able to truly defeat him.
Taichiro nodded.
"Yes, it's a miracle that we survived."
We need to get out of here quickly, otherwise he might attack us again.
Because we are simply no match for him now.
Ron was very unwilling, but he also knew that even if he tried his best, he couldn't hurt the curse at all.
"But are we just going to let this go? Who knows how many more lives will be harmed by this curse?"
Ron clenched his fists and looked in that direction, where he could sense a faint aura of curse.
The curse must have already reached them and could strike at any moment.
Strangely, however, the surroundings have remained calm until now.
Just then, Ron felt the aura of the curse growing stronger.
He said, "It's time for us to leave here."
Taiichiro nodded, and the two prepared to move forward.
Suddenly they felt their feet sink, as if the entire ground was collapsing.
Suddenly, they felt the scene before them change rapidly, and soon everything went dark.
Taichiro said.
"Oh no, we've fallen for his trick again."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ron saw a flash of light in front of him, clearly indicating that Taiichiro had drawn his sword once again.
Ron asked, "Where are we now?"
Taiichiro looked around, but it was pitch black and he couldn't see anything clearly.
"I could sense a curse-like quality in that aura just now."
But why can't I smell his scent anymore?
Taiichiro shook his head and said.
"Just a moment ago, I felt a strange force pulling my feet down and dragging me down with all its might."
I know it must be the work of a curse.
But what's happening around here doesn't quite seem like a curse.
"In short, be careful, the other party is too cunning."
Suddenly, a series of soft, rustling sounds came from all around, as if something was slowly approaching.
But they couldn't see anything at all.
Ron said.
"Be careful, we just escaped from his body."
But to my surprise, I was brought in again.
But this place seems a little different from where we were before.
Ron felt something slowly crawling towards him from all directions.
He quickly took the broken knife into his hand.
Even though he was out of danger, he didn't throw away the broken sword.
I never expected it would come in handy now.
Taiichiro unleashed a series of slashes at the void, trying to figure out where he was through his long sword.
Taiichiro spoke up very quickly.
"This seems to be a very spacious cave. Could we be in some kind of cave?"
It seems they teleported us here. What do they want?
Ron stared intently ahead, sensing a strange force slowly approaching from the front.
Soon, through the dim light, Ron could see clearly.
It turned out to be a cluster of tentacles.
Just like the large, hairy clump of tentacles he had seen in that passage before, it was rushing towards them at high speed.
Ron roared.
"Be careful, it's that thing again."
After saying that, Ron quickly swung the broken sword, trying to cut the tentacles off.
He knew that his strike would cause the opponent to scatter, making the tentacles even more difficult to deal with.
But there's no other way right now.
Seeing Ron make his move, Taiichiro immediately began slashing with his longsword as well.
The two quickly approached the cluster of tentacles.
Taiichiro roared.
"What the hell is this monster? Why is it so difficult to deal with?"
The long sword slashed down fiercely, but the ball formed by the tentacles cleverly rolled away.
Taichiro's sword slashed through the air.
He quickly turned to the side to dissipate his force.
We cannot use up all our strength at this moment, otherwise we will easily be ambushed by the enemy.
He had suffered from these tentacles before, so he was extremely careful now.
The tentacles' target didn't seem to be Taiichiro, but rather Ron.
They skillfully dodged Taiichiro's sword and then rushed towards Ron.
Ron was taken aback, not expecting that these tentacles would selectively attack.
He quickly thrust the broken knife forward, then rolled on the ground.
This was their way of trying to avoid the tentacles' attack.
Ron has not fully recovered his strength; he still has only a small portion of his magical power remaining.
He knew that he had used up all his magical power, so he would have no more magical power left to use.
He must save this bit of magical power for last.
Seeing Ron in danger, Taiichiro rushed over to help him.
But unexpectedly, two huge tentacles suddenly appeared beside him.
They are dozens of times larger than ordinary tentacles, and each tentacle seems to be made up of countless intertwined tentacles.
Taiichiro roared and swiftly struck, his long sword slashing at the tentacle.
A series of sparks erupted.
However, it doesn't seem to have caused any damage to the tentacles.
"Damn, this guy is so hard."
Taiichiro snorted coldly and quickly adjusted his direction to avoid the tentacle's attack.
A huge crater had appeared where he had just been standing.
Taichiro was still frightened.
If I had been even a little slower in dodging, I might have already been pierced through by those tentacles.
I didn't expect that those little tentacles would only suck blood at most.
