I Am Overpowered And A Comedian In Another World-Chapter 65: Count Your Arms, But Don’t Count on Me to Help
Chapter 65: Count Your Arms, But Don’t Count on Me to Help
There is a good news and there is a bad news.
Good news is that we got to know the weakness of Malthus.
He sucks at maths.
And the bad news is... we can’t do shit even after knowing his weakness.
I mean, the only damage I could think of doing is by asking him to find X.
So after we all figured out that Malthus doesn’t know counting, he vanished and arrived in front of Sexis.
Me and Erect jumped at him to attack but the bastard vanished a little far back from us with Sexis.
And by his left hand, he held Sexis’ antennas.
The Alien was taller than him but Malthus’ strength compensated for everything.
He lifted Sexis in the air and then with his right hand, he let go of his sword and held one arm of Sexis.
After that, he said:
"You have ten hands, right, Alien King?"
He grinned and continued saying:
"Let’s learn counting with their help."
It was clear what he meant by those words but he decided to show us.
Sexis’ one hand was held by Malthus and the red demon with the same grin...
PLUCK!
Ripped apart Sexis’ hand.
"That’s one."
He threw it towards me and I could only watch it lying lifeless in front of my feet.
That was the same hand he used to fist bump me.
"Aaaaaaaaaaaa!" Sexis hollered in pain and his scream landed on my ears like the aeroplane on the towers.
"Racis! Help me!" He shouted.
"Yes. I will do something." I say that but what should I do?
I turned to Erect.
"What do you think?"
"About what?"
This bitch..
"About your mom."
"She is dead, my lord. I don’t think about her anymore. Why do you ask?"
I blinked. "Have you lost your mind? I am obviously asking what you think about this situation? What should we do? Sometimes you act smart and sometimes you act like you will lose a chess match against a chihuahua."
"I have no fucking clue about our next steps, my lord. You are the King. You do something. And what the heck is a chihuahua?"
"I see. So you are no help right now. I really want to save Sexis from the pain."
I took a step forward.
I might as well just jump in front of Malthus and start swinging both my swords.
Alright. Imma do that.
I summoned courage from the smelly corners of my heart, the last time I summoned such courage was before proposing to a girl. But apparently, her husband had a problem with that.
Anyway, I have to do this again.
Sexis was my friend and now I don’t want him to feel that much pain.
So...
I tightened my grip on the swords, bent my knees and took off..
"Wait."
THUD!
"What? I nearly started my battle arc, Erect."
I was almost in the air but Erect’s voice made me stumble and fall.
But Erect paid no attention to my complaint and said:
"You don’t have to hurry to attack Malthus, my lord."
I sighed. I put my hand on Erect’s shoulder.
"I know you don’t like Sexis, Erect. But he is our teammate now. We shouldn’t let him die."
"I am not talking about that, my lord." Erect removed my hand from his shoulder.
"Then? And how dare you remove my hand?"
"Shut the fuck up and listen, you bast- my lord."
"... Okay. I will ignore the last part. You say what you want to say now."
"Yes. I am saying we don’t have to hurry to attack Malthus without a plan. We should think of a way to attack and then charge."
"We don’t have time for that! He will kill Sexis by then."
"No. He won’t."
"Oh yeah? Who told you that? Astrologer from an android app?"
"What the hell is an android app? And at least listen to the whole thing."
"Fine. Speak. Tell me why Malthus won’t kill Sexis?"
"He won’t kill the Alien just yet. He is angry right now. You made fun of his knowledge about numbers and in return, he said he will learn numbers with the help of Sexis’ arms. Sexis has ten arms and Malthus would take his sweet time ripping all his ten arms. During that time, we can think of something and then attack Malthus."
"Hmm. You have a point. He has only ripped one arm of Sexis. The Alien has ten. We have some time till he reaches the tenth one. Yes. We can think of something."
Erect nodded.
I began thinking of something but Malthus’ voice took my attention.
"That’s one. Now what comes after one?"
Malthus grinned.
It was just like Erect said. He was taking his sweet time. After one he will rip the second arm and continue the count.
Alright. I have ten to fifteen seconds to think of something.
However...
"What comes after one? Does anyone know? Human King, would you like to tell?" Malthus asked me.
I wasted no time answering.
"Two. After one, comes two."
"Alright. After one comes..."
Malthus held another arm of Sexis.
"Six!"
PLUCK!
PLUCK!
PLUCK!
PLUCK!
PLUCK!
PLUCK!
"..."
I looked at Erect.
Erect... scratched his forehead.
"Remember when I said we have time, my lord?"
"Yeah?"
"Scratch that."
"Wha- But you said he will take his sweet time!"
"Not my fault if he doesn’t know the counting."
"Angh. We should have taken that into account too. Now Sexis has only three hands left!"
"Now what comes after six?" Malthus asked another question and seeing the situation, I am remembering the hatred I had for my maths teacher.
That man always used to come to school even when his house had fallen. He used to take up our games period to cover the syllabus. He used to fuc-
"Help me, Racis." Sexis cried. "He ripped my six hands! I don’t want to know what comes after six. What are you doing over there? You can’t abandon me. I will give you ten CDs of premium porn. The full version. I even have some collections from Earth too!"
"Erect. We have to save him at all costs."
"Don’t get aroused, my lord! Think from your brian."
"There is no point in thinking now. You yourself said we fight till we die. This is the time for that."
"I won’t die for some CDs for fucks sake!"
"I won’t either. I just want to protect my home and people. I will fight for them."
"Such motivation came to you only after he mentioned CDs. You are fooling no one, you perve- my lord."
"Still. We have to fight one way or another. Call me whatever you want."
"Angh. You are right. Fine. Let’s go."
Erect bent his knees.
I did the same.
People will think I am doing this for the porn. But that’s not the case, I am doing this for... um, er- I will share the reason when I come up with something.
For now, Erect and I were ready to jump.
And without wasting any time, I took off in the air.
Erect followed behind.
Malthus was far from us and I could only see him because of the sky. I would have teleported to him but I could only teleport to a place which I could see from my eyes in real time. Not some livestream on the sky.
"Oh. Your friends are coming here. Guess I have to fasten up. So what comes after six? I think I have to find that out myself."
Malthus held another arm of Sexis.
Fear became evident on Sexis’ face as he looked more hideous than before.
"After six, comes..."
Malthus spoke and pulled Sexis’ hand.
But-
BANG!
"After six comes nine. Making it sixty nine, snowflake."
Before Malthus could rip another hand of Sexis, I jumped in front of him and landed a devastating punch on Malthus’ face.
The air shifted by the force of my punch as a gust of smoke arose, covering the area.
Slowly, the smoke dissipated and I was sure of one thing.
My full power punch had landed on Malthus.
Just one punch of mine did Malthus...
Hmm?
The smoke vanished.
And then I saw it.
Just one punch of mine did Malthus...
"Nothing?"
The bastard was in one piece.
"How?!" I asked.
"It’s easy, Human King."
Malthus still had Sexis’ arm on his hold and while looking at me..
"You simply lack power."
PLUCK!
PLUCK!
PLUCK!
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaanngghhhhh!!!"
Malthus ripped the remaining three hands of Sexis.
Sexis’ cry stabbed daggers at my heart and I could only stare at the helplessness of the Alien King.
And the worst part—how will he give me ponr now without his hands??
THUD!
Malthus finally let go of Sexis’ antennae.
The Alien fell on the ground.
I ran to him but...
"My lord!" Erect shouted.
I looked there.
Oh shit. No.
"Malthus, leave him. He is my best friend here!"
The red bastard was now holding Erect.
He had the Hero on a chokehold, lifting him in the air.
"Your best friend, eh? Then I surely can’t let him go!"
Malthus held Erect from his right hand and then from his left hand, he called his sword towards him.
The sword landed on his hand and while grinning at me, Malthus swung his sword.
"Aaaaaanghhhhhhhhhh!!"
Erect’s cry filled the battlefield and when I saw what Malthus did to him, my eyes almost bulged.
That monster...
He chopped Erect’s both legs!
