God of Tricksters

The Explosion King raised his head before gritting his teeth. He looked around him and saw the slime had gradually covered it.

Just like this, he ended up inside the slime. The scary part of this slime was not his Magic Power, but how he managed to shape his body.

He could easily expand, shrink, and manipulate his body's shape according to his needs. This was why the Explosion King actually ended up getting swallowed by the slime before he knew it.

"I guess I couldn't do anything to this big guy." The Explosion King was frustrated. He wanted to at least hit him once, but the slime was simply too strong.

The Explosion King saw that the slime gradually shrunk to absorb him. As soon as he touched the slime's body, he would lose his power.

The Explosion King wasn't someone who would die without a fight. He took a deep breath while gathering all his Magic Power.

He then flew toward the top, trying to break through one more time.

He clapped his hands and started concentrating the Magic Power in the gap between the palms.

"Haaaa!" The Explosion King roared as a small red light gradually expanded.

The more he gathered his Magic Power, the bigger the light. The Explosion King poured everything in him to the point the light became ten times his size.

"This is my last attack." The Explosion King smirked. "Take it if you can, you slime bastard. I'll never acknowledge you as one of the Saints!"

The slime didn't respond to him anymore. He kept shrinking his body to kill the Explosion King.

Since there was no response from him, the Explosion King didn't hesitate anymore. He threw this huge bomb toward the roof, hoping to destroy it completely.

*Boom!*

The moment the energy bomb hit the slime, a huge explosion occurred to the point it swallowed the whole gap.

The Explosion King couldn't see what was beyond his explosion, but outside, the slime's body actually expanded because of the explosion. All the slime that had spread underground was recalled to reinforce the slime's body. The tentacles and pillar had merged into the body as well.

The red slime was glowing as it almost couldn't contain its explosion.

The slime kept regenerating its body and some holes appeared on the slime's body, causing the fire from the explosion to come out.

If people took a look at the slime, they might mistake the slime for a volcano that had smoke coming out of the crack.

It took a whole ten seconds before the explosion finally disappeared. The Explosion King's face was completely exhausted. If not for his willpower, he would have collapsed.

He maintained his position with the little energy he had left, trying to see the slime's condition.

Unfortunately for him, despite using all his strength, there were only a few holes on the slime's body that could easily be regenerated.

"Even after all this, I couldn't even create a big hole in his body…" The Explosion King gritted his teeth. Because of his exhaustion, he had forgotten his previous position.

If he had been calm, he should be able to see that the holes occurred in all directions while he was supposed to be captured on one side.

In other words, the Explosion King was actually in the middle of the huge slime and managed to create holes in its body. And looking at the depth of the holes, it seemed he managed to burn a lot of slime's body.

The Explosion King wanted to give up, but the slime actually reached him for the first time.

*Puk!*

He suddenly felt a droplet falling on his right shoulder, followed by his right thigh and his left cheek.

"Huh?" The Explosion King opened his eyes one last time. To his surprise, he saw the slime was actually dropping him with its body.

And in that instant, the Explosion King felt sharp pain all over his body.

"Aaaaaahhhhh!" The Explosion King roared while looking at his shoulder. He actually found out that the shoulder was dissolved and his arm fell down to the slime body on the lower part.

The same applied to his right thigh. The one on the cheek melted a portion of his jaw.

"Aaaaahhhhh!" The Explosion King screamed in pain. It felt like his body was being melted. The sharp pain didn't knock him out simply because he was too strong. This might be the plague of being strong as in his last moment, he couldn't even pass out.

He continued to scream as more and more slime fell onto him. His chest, his stomach, his other leg… Every part of his body was being dissolved. The fallen parts would be swallowed by the slime below him.

This was the first time he felt this much pain.

Horrible wasn't enough to describe his current condition. His eyes, cheeks, bodies and limbs had melted. His organs disappeared. In normal circumstances, he should have died. Yet, he actually managed to stay alive.

He fell into despair, wondering if he could even die. This was disrespectful to a warrior like him.

"No, I refuse to die like this!" The Explosion King muttered those words with the last energy of his body. He wanted to use one last ability to detonate his body, but he didn't have any more Magic Power.

His end wouldn't change no matter what. The Explosion King could only continue experiencing this pain as he watched his body melt.

The Explosion King fell into despair. He wanted someone to kill him already, so he could die as a warrior.

Unfortunately, the Explosion King couldn't die in the way he wanted until his body only had his right chest, neck, and a part of his head left.

That was when his body finally dropped to the slime beneath him. It felt like a cushion, but the Explosion King felt his body like it was ripped apart.

The slime dissolved his body until everything disappeared. He even thought his soul was being disintegrated.

And that was when the Explosion King finally died.
