Awakening of the Weakest Slayer-Chapter 116: Tentacle Attack

Sezel's heart skipped a beat, something caught onto his leg and pulled him back. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

He clenched his jaw tight, gritting his teeth. He had a vague idea what it was. And just then his, fears were confirmed as a series of pain emerged at his leg.

It was like his leg was being injected with a hundred injections at the same time, then came the worst part. He felt his blood being extracted from his body.

'You piece of shit.' He turned over quickly and looked at his right leg. There were two tentacles wrapping themselves around his leg, the pain has already numbed.

"This sucker..." Sezel jerked his leg around, but he felt weaker by the second, vision becoming blurred and his stomach twisted.

The situation was bad... actually, this, in the business, was what you called "beyond bad."

'Should i cut my leg... no, fuck' Sezel glared at the tentacles, their grip tightening by the second.

Blood was being siphoned from him so expertly, he almost wanted to tip his hat to the technique. Not a single drop was wasted.

But, where did they come from? And where did the main body go?

Suddenly something clicked, his gaze moved forward, the tentacles from the head, that he had cut were still at some distance from him, convulsing on the dry ground, so, the ones on his legs belonged to the body.

In a frenzy, he searched around and saw the small, almost invisible holes in the ground. The sight paled his face even more, if that was possible.

He staggered to his feet—well, to something resembling standing. His right leg was just decoration now, so he used his left to kick at the nasty suckers hanging off him.

'Shitty hentai tentacles... get off of me.' he kicked them breathlessly, but they didn't even move an inch.

Instead they ripped at his flesh even more tightly, making a wave of agony run through his whole body.

'Think... think, i need to think. How do i get these things off of me.'

Suddenly, a tide of nausea hit him and he puked his guts out. Gasping for air. His strength was receding every following second.

He hadn't noticed it before, but the tentacles were growing bigger... no, they were regenerating.

Just as the terrifying realization hit him, a low squeak from behind the wall, on which he was taking support, made every single one of his hair stand.

'Hell no, What was that now?' Sezel was too afraid to turn and look behind the wall... he was tired too, a little too tired perhaps.

But still, he moved to the corner of the wall.

'Who knows maybe, i will find some clues to get these creepy things off of me'

With a faint flicker of... something, he looked to the other side of the wall and what he saw made him piss in his pants...

Not literally, but mentally.

One of the rat like monster was there, or perhaps it wasn't anymore. The beast was turned into a Skull with dry skin plastered over it. A hollow corpse without any blood.

Sezel instinctively, tracked his steps back, the tentacle that sucked on the rat like beast had already developed into a complete hand.

'Wait... does that mean?' he looked at both his legs, the difference wasn't too much but it his right leg was already thinner than his left leg.

Great. At this rate, I'll wake up tomorrow as a designer skeleton. Maybe they'll put me in a display case.

And now his right leg, below the ankle was completely covered by the growing tentacles. He couldn't feel anything, and he didn't want to feel the gross feeling of the slimy things eating at his leg.

'I need to stop the blood flow.'

In a hurry, Sezel looked around and found a metal wire, springing out of a broken wall.

He ripped it loose and wrapped it above the tentacles, yanking it tight until his skin turned ugly and pale.

Ackk... it hurts.

A low groan escaped his mouth, but it was okay. The pain was not much of a problem as long as he could save his leg.

But... it wasn't yet over.

Just as he had expected, other tentacles of the beast had gone inside the ground and came out one by one, trying to find prey.

'This is the most creepy stuff i have seen until now.'

The tentacles on his leg had retracted their teeth, as there was no more blood flow to his leg and now those ugly and relentless bastards started moving upwards.

'Think, before you act mindless shits.'

Sezel had waited just for this moment, as their teeth were the thing that was keeping him from removing them from his leg, now the resistance was gone.

With his sword, Sezel slowly picked them and threw them away. As the beast's were gone, he removed the metal wire and the color returned to his leg.

With blood, followed a series of convulsing pained spasms, the area where they bit was filled with small holes, as if multiple snakes had bit him at the same time.

Wasn't this horrifying? A sane person would loose his mind by now. But Sezel was already far from sane.

Or maybe more than even Insane...

In the situation where people cried, he laughed... he laughed ever so evilly.

Sezel leaned back at the wall and let his body sink into the ground... looking up at the sky. It was still the ominous grey that hid the cool glow of the triplet moons behind it.

'If i sleep here, i won't wake up. Right?'

The several tentacles, that had come out from the ground were slowly closing in on him and the for worse...

The core was not in sight.

[Of course... you will die pathetically here, if you don't move. I told you the place, now its your problem on how you reach it.]

The sweet voice echoed in the confinements of his mind.

Sezel grimaced, splitting a grin between nerves and bitterness.

"You bitch..."
