Chapter 40 – Carelessness
Now, what should I do?
As far as I can understand from the status, this is the strongest creature that I have encountered so far.
Endurance and strength are almost twice as much as grace-sans.
Agility and luck are quite low, but they are still higher when compared to others.
Even the skills also has to be considered.
Grace-san told me to run away as fast as possible if I was encounter such monsters.
If its just running away then probably sign isolation is more than enough to get away.
But the matter is do you run away from your enemies when they are right in front of you……
I was thinking such for a few seconds.
Alright lets take it down. You definitely need to exterminate monsters after all.
Also the other thing is that this forest is quite close to the town. If it comes out of the forest then that would cause some serious repercussions.
And also I feel like I have become more courageous since I crossed over to this world.
alright, its time to prepare. First off since hp and mp have decreased, lets restore that using a potion.
After checking the status the gauges showed MAX for both the Stats.
Now its time for the weapons. We~ll Poison knife does not have any problems.
First lets take care of the orc king.
After that, only the subordinates would be left. That would lead fight which I can easily run away from if required.
It would be quite a pain to fight the king along with his subordinates.
Alright, preparations are over.
Then its almost time.
Sign isolation has been activated, poison knife equipped in one hand.
"Alright, lets do this."
I jumped out of the bush that I was hiding in and moved forward.
Im going to run at full speed all the way to the orc king!
The orc did not notice so that"s good!
Reach!!
With the same velocity pierce the throat of the orc king as is!
"Buuoooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!"
Che~, its just a shallow wound!
The thickness of the neck seems to be odd with the fat and muscles covered all over.
This is somehow going to a little-hard.
"b.u.mOOOOOOOOOO"
I noticed that I was currently being attacked.
The orc king was begins to take a swing with his huge club with considerable momentum!
That looks to be quite dangerous, if it hits that would be whole other story.
As I thought he definitely can"t see through my concealment.
That guy was just madly swinging his huge weapon that"s it!
I dodge the club, I get closer to his head to take a swing.
"Buooooooo!"
Oops that quite close! The club was being wielded quite wildly and was almost about to sc.r.a.pe my body!
As expected its quite scary up close while dodging the cub.
And after repeating the same actions for several tens of seconds!
N!? The movements of the orc king starts to dull.
As expected, even a shallow scratch was able to poison the body.
Unless I had this then this would have been a different story the converse is also true.
But since the movements are getting dull then is a chance!!
I get closer to the orc kings back, and get closer to the neck of the orc king!
I stab the poison knife into the neck of the orc king!
There is some resistance if I can get it in then its my victory.
As I was about to dice through.
I noticed something unusual from the corners of my eyes
The knife is stuck ……cannot be moved…….is it…….
Why is not moving! Has it tightened its muscles!
While I was unable understand the reason for it to do such a thing.
When I thought about it
"Buo ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo"
The Orc king which laid quite until gave its first cry which echoed quite loudly!
What..is..this… can"t move. This can"t be.
Probably this is the Roar Skill.
I seem to be unable to move and the club approaches towards me!
This is bad, it will hit my head if this continues in the same direction.
Move…move….mo..veeeeeeeee eeee!
"b.u.moooooooooooo"
"Gu~u!"
I was somehow able to guard my neck by successfully moving both of my hands to block the weapon.
But the impact was quite powerfull, I was blown quite a considerable distance away.
"b.u.mooooooo"
The orc king looks in the direction I was sent flying and starts to take in huge breath of air!
No way! He is going to use breath! NOW ! HERE! ?
This is bad, I can"t move my body as well as before due to the influence of the ROAR!
I don"t exactly know the extent of his BREATH is, but if it hits I will not be able to escape….
Something that can act as a shield! This is bad , I don"t have anything other than weapons with me!
What should I do! What should I……
No…..
There is something…..that can become a shield…….
I took out that from the ITEM BOXX
The next moment the ORC kings breath is realeased.
"b.u.mOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO"
The breath realeased from the Orc king has considerable corrosion power,
Its burning everything around me…….
As soon as the breath was complete, there was charred corpse that was present.
The orc king confirmed the Corpse
"b.u.mOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO"
I wonder if thinks that it"s the victor of this battle.
That roar echoed through the entire forest…….
NOISY……
I grab the handle of the poison knife that"s stuck in the Orc kings throat.
"b.u.mo!!?"
And slice through the throat splendidly.
"b.u.moooo…….."
The orc king fell to the ground as I a puppet which had lost its strings, and eventually stopped moving.
"This is not something that I should be saying, but one should never let your guard down in the middle of a battle right? Well not that you can hear me anymore."
