Although it appears that I managed to kill King Arthur, Almira is not convinced and instead flared up her sword.

"He thinks he can fool me? Did you think I didn't know about your secret, you bastard? Even if you are dead, I will tear you up to pieces!"

In a blink of an eye, she closes the distance between King Arthur and her as she raises her sword and brings it down to incapacitate King Arthur.

But to everyone's surprise, the presumed dead guy opened his eyes and rolled away from the attack Almira, dodging it. Everyone might be startled but I also have doubts about killing him. After all, when I fought him before and cut off one of his arms, my loss ended up as he reattached his arms back to his shoulder without even any hardship and pain and continue the battle like nothing happened. It was like he was just reattaching a puppet's limbs.

,m It's not a wonder if he can just pull out the bullet tip from his head and flick it away like a cloud of dust that is attached to his hair. This guy is so different compared to the real King Arthur in the real world. This guy became so arrogant.

"As expected of the grandaughter of the Usurper. I can't believe that his blood and ambitions were so strong that it even passed through his descendants." King Arthur stood up and checks the wound on his forehead.

"Quit yammering!"

Almira rushes forward with the sword that she made and exchange blows at King Arthur once more. King Arthur once again doing quite a way with his movements. I pulled out my gun and shot a bullet but this time around, the guy easily sliced the bullet mid-air using the Secace before he continues to exchange blows with Almira.

I retreated a bit after seeing the two fight. Even if I try to fight in between, I would just be making a little bit of ruckus and a bit of trouble to Almira with that, seeing that she is just capable of fighting without much problem. I turned to look at the others and I realized that my mother is already cooking popcorn and everyone started eating it, including Queen Tanya and Queen Tori who seems to be enjoying watching the battle.

"What the hell, mom? Why are you cooking at a time like this?" I scratched my head in confusion.

"Why not? It's not like we can do anything in this battle and even Queen Tanya and Queen Tori here won't even bother to interfere. If that were the case, it would be better if we just observe and enjoy the situation until we really need to do something else."

Ugh, right. Mother used to be like that. If she can only observe something and not be able to do anything other than that, she would look for other ways to enjoy things before she would look into things. And seeing everyone seems to agree, it seems the only one whom Almira can rely on her back if she was cornered by King Arthur is me.

Then, I remembered one thing Almira mentioned to me after I came back from the underground before I went on a particular quest. There is one thing that she specifically mentioned before that didn't make sense to me before.

"I will task you to kill an immortal."

Those words were a bit confusing to me. It's not a quest for Almira for me to fulfill. She said these to me without the intention of me doing it entirely. Not only that but she didn't say what kind of immortal do I need to kill. After all, there are multiple enemies that are labeled as immortal and that can either range to a monster or an NPC depending on who she is trying to mention.

But she never mentioned anything and remained unclear about it. If this situation did not come, I wouldn't even think of connecting it to what is happening right now.

In this game, there are two kinds of immortality present in the game. The first and most common form of immortality is the longevity of some races and monsters. Elf NPCs are considered immortal due to how they have an almost infinite amount of lives as they can practically live forever. They can even outlive humans which is why most elves are also indifferent when talking about time as they have all the time in the world. You could say they don't have to rush at all.

However, despite calling them immortal, they can still die. They are only limited to living a long life and that's about it. Despite being immortal, they are not invulnerable to death. Like the popular quote says, "People die when they are killed", it applies in this situation.

Elves will die when they are killed. They might be labeled immortal but they won't be immune to death if they are killed which is why they are only immortal if they don't die by being killed in different ways.

Now here comes the second kind of immortals and they are probably the rarest type of immortals you can find.

These immortals are living the name "immortal". Not only do they have longevity, but they are impossible to kill either. They are the epitome of entities that are no longer human. They are practically someone who can continue living forever and death is not even a concept for them as they don't have access to that.

In this world, it is pretty rare to come across a human who is immortal but if ever you see one, it is either an immortal seeking a place to live quietly or they are looking for ways to remove it or find a way to die.

Of course, not all of them are like this as some actively seek how to obtain this kind of thing. Most of them would either label this kind of immortality as either a blessing or a curse.

The reason they are different from normal immortals is that they have very fast regenerative powers. Whenever they are wounded or have a severed limb, they can either heal it or regrow that part that was lost. Not only that but once they are killed, they will proceed to be revived as they regenerate their bodies back to normal. Disintegrating them won't do anything and in fact, they will only materialize again after a few hours or so depending on how potent their abilities as an immortal.

Due to that, they are called "true immortals" most of the time. They are almost close to impossible to kill. But despite that, they might be immune to death, but that doesn't mean you cannot remove that status. It might not apply to them, but death can be applied by a secondary party instead of them.

And that is the items and phenomenon that cancel their immortality.

King Arthur is perhaps the immortal that Almira is trying to kill. Considering what King Arthur can do, especially since I personally witness him reattach his limb like nothing and stand back up even though a bullet is already buried into his forehead, it is already obvious that King Arthur is immortal.

Now, I don't have an inkling of Almira's current weapon. From the looks of it, she called it Clarent before which means it must be the replica of the previous Clarent that Mordred used before. Since the item is Clarent, perhaps the effect of the item is to fatally injure King Arthur using the Clarent. All attacks that will be dealt with by the Clarent against King Arthur will be very effective.

However, this is where the theory comes in. Despite the best efforts of Almira to create the Clarent, the kit perhaps doesn't have the ability to cancel the immortality of King Arthur. I still remember when she saw the Carnwennan, she seemed like she was about to say something or even go back to the forge to do something. I think she wanted to go back and reforge the Clarent and give it the ability to cancel out the effects of the immortality trait that immortals have.

If King Arthur is an immortal, perhaps, that weapon can indeed help with the battle? Perhaps it can aid with stopping King Arthur's rampage, once and for all?

Perhaps it does.

I pulled out the Carnwennan from the inventory.

1. Immortal Killer - Type(Passive) - will inflict a target mark on the attacked enemy(Stackable at 10). Any attacks coming from this weapon that will land on a marked target will ignore the invincibility and immortality traits the target has. The more stacks the target has the more damage that can be inflicted on the target. It will also stop the self-regeneration skills or traits of enemies once the stacks also reach 5.

This special skill of Carnwennan is already labeled as Immortal Killer. If this is used against a true immortal, every kind of plot armor an immortal has like self-regeneration and revival will all be useless. Perhaps, this is good enough, right?
