The colossal beast collapsed onto its knees, writhing in agony...
Its stomach convulsed from within, tormented by the relentless spinal Alan,
And tears welled in its eyes from the searing pain... No one could truly blame it.
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Alan (from inside the beast):
"Okay, I think I just touched its liver... yuck."
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Just when everyone thought the beast would crumble,
It slowly rose, struggling to stand...
But Kira gave it no chance.
She leapt at it with force and agility, sword in hand,
Driving the blade precisely into its massive neck...
But...
The sword barely pierced the thick skin.
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Kira (groaning):
"Ugh! It's like stabbing a rock wrapped in meat!"
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Then... the true iron hero appeared...
Gargroth!
Calm, with a fearsome snarl, he raised his colossal hammer...
Glanced at Kira, then at the sword, then at the neck...
And smiled a smile dripping with madness and might.
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Gargroth:
"Hold tight."
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
In an instant...
He delivered a crushing blow with all his overwhelming strength...
The hammer struck the sword…
And the sword?
It drove into the neck like a spear through hot butter...
The sound of the massive neck tearing echoed like thunder.
The first head flew off, rolling across the ground...
Yet they all froze in place.
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Alan (muffled, inside the beast):
"Did we win? I heard something fall. Please let it be the monster and not one of my kidneys."
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
But the surprise...
Another head, just as huge, slowly turned toward them,
The last remaining eye glaring at them with malice...
That beast... had two heads.
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Kira (angrily):
"Oh come on!! You've GOT to be kidding me!!"
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Gargroth tightened his grip on the hammer,
Kira readjusted her stance,
And the creaking from inside the beast's belly continued relentlessly...
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
That second head...
Seethed with rage, veins bulging across its savage forehead like hungry serpents.
It opened its mouth to unleash a roar that would reclaim the dignity stolen by sword and hammer...
But instead of a roar...
It began to cough...
Then gag...
Then vomit... a little smoke and some digestive fluids...
But no sign of Alan.
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Gargroth (surprised):
"Where the hell did he go?"
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Kira (raising an eyebrow):
"...Don't tell me he's still inside."
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Inside... within the digestive hell...
Alan curled and tumbled, having crossed the stomach entirely...
Now deep within the narrow intestines...
Every step he took pressed against a nerve in the beast...
And every small roll caused pain equal to an internal nuclear explosion.
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Alan (whispering faintly):
"Guys! I think I'm... lost! Wait... I see light! Oh no... nevermind. Just acid."
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Outside, the beast emitted strange sounds...
Its mouth twitched...
Its eye rolled...
And its knee trembled from the internal agony.
It tried one last desperate attack...
But...
Each time it lifted its foot, a stabbing pain shot inside,
As if someone was kicking its digestive system from the inside with a spiked boot!
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Kira (mocking):
"This might be the most disgusting strategy I've ever seen."
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Gargroth (laughing):
"It's working. Let him roll!"
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
But the second head... was far from ready to surrender.
It roared with all its fury...
Leapt into the air attempting a full crushing blow.
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
The beast raised its massive second head, roaring so fiercely the trees trembled…
Then charged!
But...
Not as everyone expected.
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Gargroth (waving his hammer):
"Brace yourselves!"
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
But instead of landing on Kira or Gargroth...
The blow struck a massive boulder just to their left.
Dust billowed.
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Kira (coughing in the dust):
"...He missed?"
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
The beast staggered...
As if its guts were playing a chaotic symphony of pain, gas, and torment.
Its entire body convulsed like it was at a wild dance festival.
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Alan (from inside):
"HELLO?! I think I'm making him dizzy!"
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
The beast spun around, crashing into trees, falling flat on its face,
Then rose and charged again, but...
Swung at thin air.
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Gargroth (astonished):
"He's fighting like a drunk troll..."
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Kira (closing her eyes):
"I can't believe this is actually working..."
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Picture the scene:
A colossal beast with glazed eyes, dripping sweat,
Staggering like a clumsy ballet dancer,
And inside it...
A human figure with swords stabbed everywhere, flailing like a rag in a high-speed washer!
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Alan (barely audible):
"I… regret… nothing…"
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Yet the beast, despite everything, had not fallen.
To be continued...
