The Extra Who Shouldn't Exist novel Chapter 420

Chapter 420: Chapter 421 : Figured it out

Victoria’s voice suddenly broke the battlefield.

"Please... I give up!"

The words came out strained, almost desperate.

For a moment the decaying world around them seemed to pause.

Alex tilted his head slightly when the voice reached his ears.

"Sorry, what did you say?"

He scratched the side of his mask casually.

"I have a hearing problem."

He paused for dramatic effect.

"I believe I mentioned that a few moments ago."

Victoria’s expression instantly turned deadly again.

Her crimson eyes burned with restrained fury as she glared at him.

Alex shrugged.

"You’re still a bitch."

Then he glanced slightly to the side.

"Kaelith, do what I just told you."

Victoria’s composure snapped.

"Wait! Wait... wait!"

Her voice came out louder this time.

"I said I give up!"

Alex leaned forward slightly.

"Come again?"

Victoria gritted her teeth so hard her jaw trembled.

’Endure it.’

’Just endure it.’

’I don’t know how... but this bastard has figured it out.’

As she yelled "i admit defeat now are you satisfied."

Before she could say anything further, Alex suddenly spoke again.

"Let me guess."

His tone was calm.

"You’re wondering how I figured it out."

Victoria’s eyes widened slightly.

But she remained silent.

Alex gave a faint shrug.

"I suppose, as your master, I should satisfy your curiosity."

He raised one hand theatrically.

"Gather around, kids."

"It’s time for Uncle Lucifer to impart his genius wisdom."

Victoria’s eye twitched.

But Alex continued as if giving a lecture.

He looked down at the severed hand he was holding, rotating it slowly as if examining a complicated device he had finally solved.

"For a moment... I thought you were immortal."

He took a slow step forward.

"But that wasn’t what I was seeing."

He lifted the hand slightly.

"The first time I destroyed your body, it shattered into cursed energy."

"But the energy itself didn’t disappear."

"It scattered."

He paused.

"And then something pulled it back together."

Victoria stayed silent.

Alex continued.

"So I kept testing it."

"I killed you again."

"And again."

"And again."

"Each time your body collapsed into cursed energy."

"And each time... it rebuilt itself in the exact same pattern."

He gestured toward her.

"That was when I realized something."

"Your body isn’t real."

He tilted his head.

"Or at least... it doesn’t function like one Kaelith has."

"It’s a constructed vessel made entirely from cursed energy."

"And that vessel is maintained by Divine Weapons that contain fragments of your soul and the laws you control."

Victoria’s expression tightened slightly.

Alex raised one finger.

"One Divine Weapon contains the Law of Restoration."

"Whenever your vessel collapses, that law gathers the scattered cursed energy and reconstructs your body."

"That’s why destroying you never works."

He raised another finger.

"A second weapon holds the Law of Conversion."

"That law converts matter, mana, and any available environmental energy into cursed energy for you."

"In other words... you never run out of power."

"No matter how long the battle lasts."

"Everything around you becomes fuel."

A third finger rose.

"The third weapon contains the Law of Destruction."

"When your vessel collapses, the cursed energy that formed it becomes unstable."

"Fragments of scattered energy remain in the area."

"Remnants of my death energy."

"Other energy types."

"Foreign interference."

"If those disturbances remain, they could distort the structure of the next reconstruction."

"They could corrupt the energy being gathered by Restoration."

"So the Law of Destruction activates."

"It annihilates those unstable fragments."

"It erases any interference."

"In simple terms..."

"Restoration rebuilds you."

"Destruction clears away anything that could stop that rebuilding."

Alex then slowly raised the severed hand.
