Episode 17
I followed Kaham and looked at him.
I couldn’t figure out his intentions.
It was also the case that the person who was hostile to me at the banquet hall is now friendly to me.
It also bothered me that he was being overly kind to me.
It seemed as if he was being kind to someone who was about to die.
I feel like I’m going to die anyway, so it’s a loss if I become hostile.
‘And why do you keep going inside?’
It’s been like that since before.
When some were trying to hunt outside, they cleverly moved to keep going inside.
As if you had to go in there.
It was then.
“Aaaahhh!”
A woman’s scream was heard. At the
same
time, a red flare shot up into the sky.
I know the meaning of that smoke, or more precisely, the color of the smoke.
‘Structure signal.’
There was something about that acting in the original.
It was a signal that Beatrice used to alert people around her when she was in danger.
Could it be that Kaham did something?
When I looked back at him, I saw that his eyebrows were slightly furrowed.
A face that says something is not going well.
I glared at him and ran to where the flare was coming from.
“Barrier!”
The sound of Beatrice chanting. And the orcs surrounding the barrier were visible.
Orcs holding clubs or bladed weapons.
Among them, there was an orc who was twice as tall as the other orcs wearing armor.
‘Oc Warrior!’
A particularly strong and destructive monster even among orcs.
It was a powerful entity that could only be dealt with by a knight who used mana.
Why is such a monster here?
There’s no way the knights would have let that danger go.
This situation itself was something strange, as was the Orc Warrior.
The orcs were all excited.
He was drooling and his eyes were red and bloodshot.
An orc’s eyes are green like its body.
Those eyes were so red and bloodshot that they could be seen from far away.
It looked like he had taken a stimulant.
“Oh Orc Warrior!”
Kaham’s shocked voice was louder than expected.
At that sound, the eyes of the orcs surrounding Beatrice shifted in this direction.
Kaham must have realized his mistake, but he hurriedly covered his mouth.
The orcs were already baring their teeth at us.
Wow!
Some of the orcs are running towards us.
Other orcs repeatedly pounded the barrier to see if they were more interested in women than men.
“Aaaah!
She screamed at the orc’s hideous appearance.
With only the barrier in place, they were unable to mount a significant counterattack.
It was strange.
In the original, it was normal for her to resolve this situation without any problems.
The power she showed when meeting the main character was that great.
Even though he is weaker than before, he is still a 3rd circle wizard.
It was a being that could never be driven to this level.
It would be normal to defeat at least half of them, but she was so scared that she couldn’t do anything.
‘why…?’
There was no time to worry.
Before I knew it, an orc came closer and was swinging a club.
Sigh!
My sword decapitated the nearest orc.
Wow!
The orcs, enraged by the smell of their compatriot’s blood, all broke away from Beatrice and rushed towards me.
Suddenly.
Cut off the arm of the closest approaching orc.
Sigh.
Turn your body to avoid the attack and cut its head.
My body, ‘immersed’ in the main character, slaughtered the orc like a machine.
The number of orcs initially attacking her was only five, including the orc warriors.
But now, including the orcs that came after smelling blood, there were eight of them.
Excluding the orcs you just killed, you have to deal with six of them.
This was impossible even for the driver alone.
If only there were regular orcs.
Kuaaaa!
A group of orcs that includes orc warriors is twice as dangerous.
Just one Orc Warrior was equivalent to one Knight.
That too with a knight who uses mana.
Considering that the difference between a knight who uses mana and a knight who does not is the difference between earth and sky.
what.
I felt something strange while dealing with the orcs.
Kaham was obviously with me, but strangely the orcs attacked me.
Out of curiosity, I glanced behind me and saw Kaham looking at me with the mouth of a brown container I didn’t know where he had opened it.
The orcs did not attack even though they glanced at Kaham.
As if that shouldn’t be the case.
It was strange, but I didn’t have time to pay attention to it.
Because I was busy dealing with orcs.
I quickly looked around.
‘There is no chance of winning.’
Intuitively, there was no way I could win.
Even if Kaham helps and Beatrice comes to her senses.
It was normal not to be able to win.
The Orc Warrior was such a dangerous being.
Moreover, Kaham seemed to have no intention of helping me.
Even though you can never win.
Why?
Phew.
Now that I was taking on the orc, I didn’t think I would lose.
Is it because I am immersed in the main character who killed thousands of monsters?
This didn’t feel like anything.
Kagagak.
Throw away the swinging club to the side.
Kwasik.
Cut off that head.
1 min?
I killed two more orcs in maybe less time.
“Haa…”
A heat surged from within.
Something felt good.
Cut the flesh.
Breaking bones.
Wow!
Cutting off the head of a screaming orc.
I felt like I was going to become addicted.
Puff poop poop.
He grabbed an orc and thrust his sword into its chest one after another.
Every time the sword cut into my flesh, blood splattered all over my face and body.
It’s ridiculous that even just a moment ago, I was afraid of killing someone.
“not bad.”
Killing the orcs was satisfying.
Quang!
Avoided the axe.
what?
I think my body has gotten a little stronger.
Quad deuk.
Cut off the orc’s head. My sword cut off the orc’s head with a single blow.
Originally, I wouldn’t have been able to cut even half of it.
‘The strength has become stronger.’
Overall physical ability increased.
I didn’t do anything special, so what happened?
I glanced back. Mana gathered in her hand that reached out to me.
“fire!”
The body of the orc attacking from behind burned.
Even as he attacked the orc, his hands trembled.
***
Chwiik.
With her help, all the orcs except the orc warrior fell to the ground.
The appearance of the fallen orcs was not very good.
The sight of his entire body being ravaged was so ugly that even the kindest person would feel nauseous.
thud!
The Orc Warrior, who had been quiet until then, stepped on the floor.
My feet rose and the ground trembled with each step.
A red speck appeared on his body, and his already red eyes became even redder and seemed to be filled with blood.
Wow!
The Orc Warrior’s roar echoed in all directions.
The trees around us shook violently and their branches broke.
I heard a tinnitus beeping in my ears.
My eardrums burst with just one roar.
‘This is the Orc Warrior.’
I don’t know why I stayed quiet while my compatriots were dying.
The momentum was amazing. As I was facing him, my body was shaking.
Because you are afraid?
no. How strong is that Orc Warrior?
I was excited to see if he could really satisfy me.
Left leg forward and right leg back.
I bent my knees and aimed my sword.
Bang kwaang!
The Orc Warrior shook the glaive he was holding and broke the trees around him.
Then it screamed and rushed at me.
The glaive is raised high and then lowered.
If you block that, not only will your arms break, but your head will explode.
As soon as I thought about it, I dodged to the side and swung my sword at my side.
Kaang!
The Orc Warrior’s arm was bent abnormally and blocked my attack.
I stopped something that could never be stopped, but I wasn’t surprised.
I knew that an Orc Warrior would easily block an attack like this.
Kagagak.
He pulled his sword down and leaned down.
The glaive scraped past the sword.
Phew.
He laid down his sword and stabbed his side.
It’s shallow.
Only the tip of the sword went in.
Wow!
The Orc Warrior screamed and swung his fist at my head.
“shield!”
A blue film appeared above my head and blocked the orc’s fist.
Although it was broken, it gave me time to escape.
If the magic had been a little late, my head would have exploded.
Strangely, I wasn’t afraid even though I almost died.
But that isn’t enough.
After encountering Orc Warriors a few times, I felt like I knew.
I need to become more of a protagonist than I am now.
I have to portray the main character, including my personality and behavioral strength.
[‘Nameless God’ is worried about excessive immersion.]
A light blue aura appeared on the sword.
The thought of ‘losing’ disappeared and the thought of ‘killing’ filled my head.
When mana builds up in your arms and legs.
Kwaaaaang!
My sword can now take the glaive from the front.
In common sense, it was impossible.
No matter how short I exercised, my body was weaker than my peers.
Nevertheless, the reason we were able to win was because we had technology.
It was impossible to face the Orc Warrior’s mighty power head-on.
Nevertheless, I was able to receive it thanks to the mana in my sword and arms.
The moment I became ‘immersed’ in the main character, I was able to handle mana like my limbs.
I turned my body and released the glaive.
The Orc Warrior’s body was unable to withstand the force and momentarily leaned forward.
When he tries to turn the mall with his monstrous reflexes.
“Restraint.”
Mana stopped the Orc Warrior’s movements.
A moment’s hesitation. Thanks to that, I was able to stab the sword into his head.
The sword filled with mana penetrated the tough leather and reached the top of the head.
“Whew…”
When the sword was pulled out, the Orc Warrior’s body swayed helplessly and fell forward.
I was just ‘immersed’ in it.
I was only immersed in it for a short while, but I immediately killed the Orc Warrior.
‘It’s not enough.’
Still, I felt thirsty.
I wanted to see more blood.
Someone shouted in my head that I had to kill more to bring about talent.
I looked around.
Wow…
and it was visible. A woman shining brightly.
She was Beatrice and I wanted to steal her light.
If I kill that woman, wouldn’t I be able to have her talents?
no.
don’t stop.
My body moved differently than I thought.
“Raymond…?”
She looked up at me blankly.
He looked at her indifferently and swung his sword.
“Be barrier!”
Several layers of barriers were piled up over her body.
I swung my sword without heeding anything.
Even though I have little mana, it’s not enough to break through that barrier.
One per room.
I steadily broke down the barrier.
Faster than she can chant.
In an instant, the entire barrier she had spread was broken.
“Aaaah!”
As she screamed, my sword stopped near her neck.
My opposite hand grabbed the blade. The hand was torn and blood flowed out.
My head hurt more than my hands.
Nausea filled me. I lowered the sword from her.
I stumbled and leaned against a tree.
I recited what was inside.
The pain in my heart feels like it’s being pricked by a needle.
Only after a long time had passed was I finally able to come to my senses.
‘I almost got eaten.’
I was so immersed in the main character.
I felt like I had become the main character and because of that, I almost killed Beatrice.
This is dangerous.
No matter how good a sword is, if the handle is a blade, you cannot handle it.
‘Acting’ was like that.
I should do it in moderation, but I was afraid that if I got too involved, my personality itself would change.
“sorry.”
I approached the scared woman and spoke to her.
