◈Episode 63: If there is a God (6)
Moving on to Montata was not that difficult. As always, it was just my own battle with motion sickness.
“I can see the canyon!”
Still, we succeeded in reaching the limit. The sea road running between the islands glowed with a particularly blue color. The sky is unusually bright for the circumstances.
“Watch out for the arrows!”
Was it a little closer to the strait? Arrows began flying from one of the cliffs surrounding Garorimryang.
If you follow the footsteps of the arrow, you will soon find a mountain house built on a cliff. It was a deserted area that started from the edge of the river and climbed up the terraced rocks to almost occupy one side of the cliff.
“Raise your shield!”
At that point, my body, which had been proudly standing on the deck, stood tall. Papapapak. The sound of the arrows that started flying earlier is quite similar to that of heavy rain.
“Wow, can you really break through that?!”
Ugh, my faith is weak.
I walked towards the bow, hitting only the arrows that would hit me.
Whether the sails are riding the wind or following the current, the ship is constantly getting closer to the crossing.
「A hostile target exists within a 30m radius.」
「❖ Fang targeting Jakrati
∎ Destroy the base of Vipurit and his gang
∎ Eliminate pirates 0 / ??
∎ Bonus: Killing Vipurit”
or the enemy’s ship from the living quarters.
“The enemies are coming! Pick up your weapons!”
“Ha, I don’t know if this is really a good thing.”
“Don’t be weak. “All you have to do is hold on until that guy kills everyone!”
“Isn’t it a question of whether we can survive on our own?”
Some sailors and adventurers said such things. I’m not saying you should listen to me, but I can see your senses.
Not in a bad way, but to the point where I want to smile and reply, ‘Oh, okay, I’ll do it quickly.’
“Victory to my sword and glory to the sky…!”
So, I raised my sword and performed a courtesy call before battle. Swish. One arrow grazed right next to my ear and another stuck at my feet.
My sword went down.
“The time has come to pay for your sins.”
Immediately after, he pulled his upper body forward and took a step, as if he was falling. When you hear the sound of a board crunching under the soles of your feet, your body is already in an explosive state.
Coo!
slam!
I stepped on the railing, soared through the air, and fell loudly into the approaching enemy boat.
“What the fuck!”
“Ugh!”
“Kill the crazy Lord!”
The boat pushed out the sea water and sank down a little, and the passengers on board started swearing.
The sight of the pirates reacting to each other while shouting curses and the splashing spray and rocking boat appeared in my field of vision as if in slow motion.
Suddenly!
But there is no time to spend appreciating it all. I swung my sword and added blood to the scene.
I wasn’t able to cut down the one guy behind me at the landing point, but it doesn’t matter.
I feel like I lost my balance and hit the railing. At that level, it would be nearly impossible to hit me.
Tap, tap!
What’s worse, I crossed over to the other side before the boat’s rocking motion had even subsided.
thud!
“Hi!”
“You crazy!”
I jumped over to the next boat and behaved the same way as before.
Give the scared guys a stab and move on to the next step.
It was similar to a wolf crawling into a ranch and wandering through the sheepfold.
Of course, when swinging once, the aim was to strike many blows rather than strike accurately, and since the sword was not cut more than twice, the number of deaths itself was not that many.
There were more people falling into the sea and more people suffering from sword wounds than those who died directly.
But that was enough for me. What I wanted from the beginning was to serve as a springboard to reach land and to delay their ability to reach our ship.
If you neutralize it to this extent, the crew will survive just fine.
“You bastard!”
Meanwhile, the guy who learned my pattern swung his weapon in time for my landing. It wasn’t bad sense.
I just had a skill called ‘survival instinct’.
“Murder—!?”
Pow!
Following what the skill taught me, I fell flat the moment my body touched the boat.
The front of the boat rose up due to the recoil, and the sword of the person who was trying to attack me cut through the air.
slam!
Then, as a reaction, the part I was standing on rose up, and my body rose as well.
Because I applied strength to my feet at the right time, my body is springing forward like a spring.
Pow!
“Ugh!”
My knee kicked the enemy’s chin, and my outstretched leg hit the end of the boat hard as the enemy fell.
thud! The impact caused the boat to turn over. The bodies of those who were swept away flew through the air and entered the sea.
“Ugh!”
“Wow!”
However, if the boat capsizes, I have already thrown myself onto land. Saying that it was a blessing in disguise, he withdrew his sympathy for them and landed on the seaside rock.
“Stop it!”
There is a plan in front of me that I have somehow built.
Kwasik!
I broke it with my foot and put my hand back. When the hilt of the sword feels comfortable in your hand, the silver-white blade comes out and splits the sunlight.
“What is that monster!”
“Kill, kill!”
I guess there are no devils here? I advanced into a barracks filled with only humans and quickly surveyed the situation.
It’s still too early to be sure, but I couldn’t see anything other than humans.
Suddenly!
So, I poured half of my magic power into it and started with slashing.
The damage was good enough to get stuck on boss mobs, but there was no reason to save on a skill whose range increased as much magic power was invested.
Of course, I will save the remaining magic power as much as possible in case of an emergency…
but still, I love wide-range attacks. I don’t know how I lived before without this skill.
“Uh huh…?”
“you you…?”
However, this skill also has some drawbacks. The scene that unfolds immediately after deploying a skill is quite similar.
Sigh!
“Wow!”
In particular, the process of a person becoming a person is really….
The cut section itself is quite disgusting, but bragging about your talent as a group will only worsen your mental health.
“A monster….”
However, if you have the luxury of being sentimental, that’s not the case. If I dilly-dally, I would only be prolonging my time here.
Even though I didn’t want to see them, I hurriedly crossed the world filled with black swords.
Everything that the slash passes through ends up being slightly misaligned, or the upper part slides to the side and falls.
Military boots stepped on red wet rocks and climbed upward.
“Shoot, shoot!”
At that point, the arrow that was originally aimed at the ship changed its target. Tidik tick tididik. Things pouring down like rain, pounding on the spot I passed by.
I can’t say that the aim is good, but the chatter was quite annoying.
“Kill him before he comes up!”
Everyone treats me like some kind of boss mob. Players who hear it feel bad.
Even while grumbling, I jumped up and dodged the arrow. My body, jumping up and down on the rocks as if doing acrobatics or performing tricks, reached the second camp.
Should I cut them all with a sword? I feel bad about being turned into a sea of human blood. Should I hit them with my fists?
A fleeting moment of worry continued. Tickling. It was at that time that I felt something settling in my right arm.
Suddenly!
They are connected to the devil, so we can’t show them any mercy.
Instead of sheathing my sword, I swung it. The blade, which was not even coated with magic because it was a waste, pierced the person’s skin, tore the muscles, and split the bones.
Sigh!
“Ugh!”
I realized that if I poured magical energy into my left arm, I could easily swing the two-header with one hand, so I sometimes used my right hand to grab the enemy’s collar or head and throw it away.
“Where the fuck did this monster appear?”
Cheaeng!
The sword was blocked. I stepped on the enemy attacking me from my right and put more strength into my left hand while holding the sword of the enemy attacking me from my right with my gauntlet.
That’s it. The sword that was pushed away gained momentum and cut down the entire left side. The person who was crossing swords with me and several other pirates who were attacking to the left fell to the ground, bleeding.
Squeak!
At the same time, he pulled the enemy’s sword he was holding with his right hand and blocked another attack from the enemy.
After processing the left side, the two-hender, which had no work to do, was laid horizontally and stabbed my right side.
“Wow!”
This is the end for the guy who was attacking me. I pulled the sword still held tighter.
And when the sword was completely taken away, the hilt of the sword was used to cut off the head of the person who had been taken away. Since they took a picture of the middle of the face without any mercy, at least a little more than a broken nose would be a concussion. No need to worry any more.
Dang.
So I threw away the sword I had taken and looked ahead.
There are many things that are frightened and lingering, with both people running as if they are aiming for the moment.
My two-hender came out of the pirate’s lifeless body, scattering blood everywhere.
“Get out of my way!”
But when I kicked one of them and cut off its head, I heard a thumping sound from above.
“You did a good job running amok in my territory, kid!”
“Boss!”
What soon appeared was a bipedal buffalo, or Shagi pirate.
He looks particularly strong, with broad shoulders and a height of up to 2.5 meters. Personally, I think it would be a good fit to be a general or a king on an island with cherry blossoms.
“boss!”
“The boss has arrived!”
“You’re dead now!”
More than that, I feel a bit uncomfortable because my arm is itching.
I straightened up the two-hender with the pirates cheering at the sight of the buffalo.
“I will rip your body into pieces and throw you into the sea as meat!”
“Kill that monster!”
“Die, die!”
Pirates are so noisy. I looked at the water buffalo that looked like it was about to charge at any moment, leaving the guys whining.
Then, suddenly, the prominent veins on the water buffalo’s trapezius muscle—it only had a trapezius muscle instead of a neck—caught my eye. If you look closely, you can see that the veins are gradually popping out under the long dangling earrings and braided hair.
“I’ll crush your head with this club!”
What should I say? The blood vessels are excessively dilated, making it look like someone has taken something or done something. And the aftermath is probably….
Boom, boom, boom!
“Wow!!”
It’s probably not a good thing for me.
I fluttered the corners of my eyes as I watched the water buffalo’s skin expand and its body swell in an instant, as if it were transforming into the Hulk.
fear? Of course it wasn’t. I just wondered if that bastard was doped with something to bulk up like that.
Is that a devil contract or something?
“It’s like collaborating with the devil…”
I also had similar concerns.
I still have some magic power left, so should I just take care of it in one blow? Or should I fight him without magic power?
Of course, given the circumstances, he is the boss here and it is right to use skills on the boss… No, the bosses you faced before are so majestic.
Compared to a plague demon or a dragon, he seems too weak. Even taking into account the meta factor that I’m at a higher level than them because I’m in the later stages… I guess it’s a bit like that.
To put it in layman’s terms, it seems too much like crap. It seems like you’ll get a deal even if you don’t use the skill.
It’s been so many days since the story started, but looking at the fact that random mobs are still being caught with basic attacks, it seems like basic attacks will still work on bosses as well.
“I’ll kill you! “You brat!”
But my concerns were cut off before a conclusion could be reached. This is why a nearly 3m tall water buffalo ran towards me with its club raised high.
“Hwaaaap!”
good. First, try one hit without a skill, and if it doesn’t hit, use it. If it hits well, let’s go without it.
Honestly, killing 20 people at once is more useful in reducing time than killing a boss in one turn. There’s nothing more annoying than when the mobs spread out.
Quang!
Anyway, the buffalo’s wooden club – wrapped in iron – struck the floor. It was so heavy and strong that, rather than being broken by the rock, it left a few scratches on the floor.
“Know your topic.”
However, my body is already slightly off the point of impact.
I only got bigger, but my brain raised the two-hender towards the shriveled enemy. The sword, which shone coolly like the blade of a guillotine, cut through the sunlight and aimed at the head and arms of the buffalo.
Suddenly!
“Aaaah!”
“The arms of the two leaders!”
My forearm, which was thicker than my thighs and possibly as thick as my character’s waist, fell to the floor.
Unfortunately I couldn’t get my hair cut. It wasn’t that strange.
Anyway, the weight difference was too big. Even when he slightly bent his knees and bent his back to hit the club, his gaze was higher than mine.
Plus, his reflexes aren’t that bad.
The moment I turned to the side and raised my sword, it realized what I was going to do and tried to pull away. The proof is that it was cut lower, closer to the wrist, than where I originally cut it.
“You two bosses!”
“You rotten bastard!”
Is it an instantaneous rise in rank from a brat to a rotten bastard?
I chased after him at once, scattering unnecessary glory on the floor. The buffalo that had retreated gritted its teeth and swung its club with one hand.
I also stepped on the ground, applied strength to my feet, and moved the two-hander.
Kwasik!
The buffalo’s club and my sword crossed. The iron surrounding the club was dented and soon torn apart, cutting off the tree.
The head of the club broke into pieces and flew through the air.
“What the fuck.”
At that moment, such a curse came out of the buffalo’s mouth. It was a truly delicious pronunciation.
However, I feel the same way. Hey… no, this isn’t an insult, it’s just a bit of desperation.
It’s true that all the bosses except the plague demon and the dragon are like this, but it’s so bad that you can deal damage like this even without using any skills… It’s
good, but it’s also very bland.
“This is not a human…”
“Run away!”
“You never said something like that was coming!”
The pirates who saw my dance began to run away. It is said that even their last hope has been lost, but these subordinates are escaping, leaving behind their leader. The bond between criminals is really great.
“Damn you bastards!”
The buffalo must have been impressed by the sight of the men running away and let out a loud scream. It seemed like my eardrums didn’t like it, so I willingly picked up the sword to kill the source of the noise.
“Now that it’s like this—!”
And when my legs sent my body flying forward, I swallowed my breath and swung my sword.
Breaker. The sword covered in black energy sliced through the buffalo from the top of its head to its crotch. The blood spurting out was after the creature’s body split in two and fell to the floor.
Clink.
But now the sound of something breaking….
woe!
“…!”
Suddenly, the jar, which was in the buffalo’s hand and fell to the floor along with the other two sides of its body, spewed out pitch black liquid.
It looks like it broke when it hit the floor… but no matter how I thought about it, it never looked good!
The spot where the jar fell was right near me. I was the first to be swept into the pitch black liquid without even being given a chance to escape.
As with the plague demon, the liquid only soaked up to my ankles, and no special abnormalities were seen.
“Ugh!”
“Run away!”
“Ugh!”
no. I will correct it. I think I was the only one who avoided it because I was wearing proper shoes.
“You damn devils…!”
No!! Usually, when things like this happen, people say, ‘Oh, didn’t he try to do something? hmm. Isn’t it the norm to finish work in a refreshing manner by saying, ‘It won’t matter?’
Next time, before I cut him, I have to check what he’s holding, take it away, and then kill him!?
In an instant, I thought of all my complaints and looked for a solution to this situation. They are pirates and the land itself is ruined.
“Knight Sir!”
“…Don’t come closer!”
Ugh. Dev, no! You shouldn’t come here!!
“It’s a curse!”
“yes?!”
I ran, stepping on the liquid with great strides.
The pirates are self-destructing due to the leader’s troll, so pass. As for purifying it with fire, it’s unclear whether that liquid can be burned by fire, and there’s no place to find embers, so I’ll pass on that too.
Moreover, the speed at which the liquid spreads was so fast, and the slopes and levels were so steep that even if we were a little late, the liquid would have reached our ship.
Right now, saving our boat comes first.
“Get out of your seat right now.”
“Demon knight!”
Oh, but why is there a voice I haven’t heard in a few days even though it’s familiar?
“I’m here!”
I bit my lip when I noticed the face of the person who was just climbing up the rock and the hair that stood out the most. I couldn’t help it because I would have laughed otherwise.
“From now on, I will step forward!!”
Our HP furry tiger is here!!
