When the ogres approached, I expected them to be in just one group, not really in the same place, but being a little close for the magic to affect everyone, it would be a little difficult to hit them all, so I thought it would be better to use two different spells.I could use an ice spine and then use stone spines, I could use one on each side so that no ogre escapes from my magic, this will be a very big slaughter, I hope Sylphe doesn"t mind seeing a lot of blood.
Well, the blood of monsters is different and n.o.body is going to care about monsters either, I think there will be no problem for them to see this scene.
"They"re getting closer, get ready." I already knew they were coming, but I got a warning from Sylphe nonetheless, she has very keen senses, so it helps me a lot at times.
I am using search magic now, but I will have to disable it if I want to use my other spells to the maximum extent, so your perception will now be necessary so that we are not caught off guard.
"Keep an eye on our backs, I will take care of everyone who is coming." I was confident that I could kill all these monsters with my magic, but even if I couldn"t, I had the second option which was to use my sword and my own fists.
Rooarrr ~~~
Bleeeh ~~
The ogres made a very strange sound, I have never seen ogres make such a strange noise, well, as long as they die I don"t care what noise they make, the only sound I want to hear is the sound of their deaths.
The ogres were coming in droves, when I started counting, I counted 16 ogres that were approaching, they weren"t that fast so I didn"t mind counting while I was facing them.
But now it is different, they are very close, the time has come to attack, just die.
"Stone thorns." Huge stone thorns started to come out of the ground one after the other, the others were startled and tried to escape from the thorns, but it was too late, the thorns went through their flesh easily.
Some had their bodies completely crossed, the spines entered between their legs and left the head, it was a very grotesque scene to see, most of them were just pierced throughout the body, those who did not die instantly were stuck in the spines without being able to to move.
But those were only half of them who were most directly to the cave. The other ogres were a little scared by that scene, but they continued to move forward, but of course I wouldn"t let them, they moved forward as far as they could.
"Ice spikes." Again, like the stone spines, huge spines of ice started to come out of the ground, they were even sharper than the stone spines, so some ogres lost parts of their bodies because of the spines.
And again some of them got stuck in the spines of ice, 16 ogres, only 3 ogres had survived, but they couldn"t move, it was much easier than I thought.
You have leveled up.
"Oh, it looks like I leveled up again, now I have more points to use, I thought it would take longer to level up." But even so, I still want to find out why my level has gone up before.
He went up when I killed humans, and I thought that was impossible since when I lived in the village, or I killed the bandits during the trip, my level never rose. I wish I could contact the G.o.ddess to ask.
"Hey, that was awesome." Has Sylphe never seen me use magic like this before? Well, whatever, I"m glad she liked to see me using these spells.
"Thanks." I was a little embarra.s.sed to answer her compliment, so I just said an embarra.s.sed thank you, I have to learn to get along with compliments.

When I realized that my level had gone up and I had finished cleaning all the ogres, I was wondering if we were going to continue ahead or not. I am worried that there is something more dangerous like an Ogre King ahead.
"Are we going back now?" Sylphe seems to have noticed my concern, so she asked if I was prepared to continue. I thought she was going to ask me the reason for my concern, but it looks like she doesn"t want to know about it.
"Do you want to go back?" I wanted to know her opinion. She still suspected that there may be an Ogre King here, or maybe she noticed and didn"t tell me about it.
"I don"t know, I think we had better continue." We were already here, and I don"t think the mission will be complete if we go back without seeing what has more depth in the cave.
"I will activate the search magic again." I had disabled it because I wanted to battle the ogres, I didn"t know if there was anyone else besides those ogres, or maybe he was snuggled between them.
After that I activated my search magic and again it started to spread through the cave again. The magic did not detect the ogres that were in the thorns, it seems that they have already died from their injuries.
The trick with magic is that it doesn"t get undone, so I need to dodge the thorns to get past them, or maybe just break them and get through.
"Leave it to me, I"ll also get the cores." I almost forgot about the ogres" cores, it would be a waste of money, thankfully Sylphe remembered catching them, it"s good that she takes advantage and removes the thorns, but now I need to concentrate.
My search magic was almost reaching the place where the ogres were before, and after some time I managed to see it, it was there. The sign of life was standing there without moving, I already imagined what it would be at the time.
Usually the King does not leave his place, which in this case is there, he always sends the other ogres to prevent the invaders from entering, but perhaps he does not even imagine that his guards were all so easily killed, he must be waiting for their return.
If we take too long, he"ll come here, of course he won"t be there quietly if his guards don"t come back, so we need to attack first.
"Do you want help?" I wanted to help Sylphe get the cores, but she was very skilled, when I looked at her, all the cores were already at her side, all removed. I took all the cores and put them in my bag.
"Now shall we continue?" Sylphe said.
"It"s all right." This King must be very strong, I hope I won"t face any difficulties during the fight, I"m not in the mood to use more than I should.
If I use what I don"t owe in here, we could end up buried in here.

We were walking more slowly in the forest, since the king was standing still, we didn"t want to get his attention and make him attack us, the best thing would be to attack first, and of course, using our strongest magic.
Of course, I would not use the strongest fire magic, but I would use the strongest magic of other elements, the fire magic has a lot of destructive power, which would not be good.
I could use several ice and stone spines as I have done many times, but I wanted to change my attack pattern a little, I was thinking about using the sword and magic at the same time, it would not be so difficult to do something like that.
I already have experience using a sword and also using magic, so it won"t be a problem to do that, the only problem is that I need to put magic on my sword and use spells at the same time, so my mana can go down a lot.
"We are coming." As I still had the search magic, I realized that we were very close, so we had to take care here and not make any noise.
When I looked at Sylphe, she was no longer as calm, she was not shaking as when she remembered the dungeon, but she seemed a little nervous, maybe she recognized the strength of the King even without seeing him up close?
I can understand if that"s why, because I know how strong an Ogre King is.
"If you"re nervous, we can stop here." I didn"t want to force her to fight while I was nervous, so I wanted her to choose what she was going to do, whether to continue or to go back, if she chose to go back, I would fight alone anyway.
"Don"t worry, just being a little nervous doesn"t detract from my performance in a fight." She said in a confident voice.
If she is saying, I think I must believe her, I hope this is not as difficult a battle as I am thinking it will be.
