I Reincarnated as a Hero
Chapter 18 – We Do This? (2)
“I'll use Berserk, Artpe!”
(You don't have the luxury to chat right now!)
The bastard came to them immediately. The only thing left behind the party was the wall blocking the way back. As a result, Maetel did not hesitate to activate his Berserk skill. He ran forward to face the enemy.
“Tsk. I don't like the situation dictating our actions .... ”.
Artpe grumbled as he immediately activated Mana Link. He connected himself with Maetel. Then he let the shield rotate as a means to protect himself. He was careful when he went down the stairs. His eyes looked at Maetel and the Death Knight colliding with each other.
(As expected, you are amazingly stronger when you use your sword compared to the power you actually have. However, you won't be able to become a hero using a sword filled with anger!)
“I swung this sword, so I don't care what helps me! I don't care if it's anger, sadness or happiness. I'll win against you to protect Artpe! You'll never touch Artpe! ”
(If I were like the enemy you faced until now, you would be able to achieve that. However, the experience and power of the 500 Death knights combined to finish me off. How dare you speak such arrogant and insolent words towards Me!)
The powerful sounds of Maetel and the Death Knight exchanging blows with their swords could be heard. Of course, the one who received the damage and retreated was Maetel. If he did not have the teeth protecting his wrist, he would be greatly injured.
“Koohk ...!”
“Tsk. When there were 500 monsters apart, it was a fight with decent odds. You are cheap in activating the power of Record Link using suicide.. ”
(You said some silly words.)
Maetel already had cheat-like physical abilities compared to her actual level. Moreover, he could also activate the Berserk skill. He could play around with a level 150 Death Knight in his spare time. However, the enemy he was facing right now was a monster created by combining 500 Death Knights using Record Link.
Artpe immediately used his Read All Creation ability to examine the monster. The overall difference in ability was devastating. The fact that Maetel can quickly regain her position after going through the impact is almost miraculous. He even charged towards the monster.
(Our power difference is clear. Oh hero. Will you still block my path to protect that despicable brat? Are you going to do it when the only thing waiting for you is despair and death? Will you sacrifice yourself to the end for a stranger?)
“Hoohp.”
Maetel did not reply to his words. He just attacked the monster.
The magical energy in the bastard sword had been well developed by him. His powerful swing knocked back the long sword.
(What the fuck!?)
Surprisingly, he was not pushed this time! When one took the difference in fighting ability, this was a shocking development. Maetel's spirit rose higher as she pushed back at the monster. He shouted fiercely.
“What happened to the spirit you showed before? Isn't that supposed to be the 500th power of your kind? It seems like you don't have much to show right now! ”
(Kooh, ha-ah! It's just a coincidence!)
The armored knight took it as a coincidence, but Artpe immediately knew what was happening through his Read All Creation ability.
While Maetel used swordsmanship, she used tricks to strengthen her body using Unarmed Combat. It seems like he lightly hit with his sword, but he used his Bash skill. This was how he could fight on par with the Death Knight.
‘It sounds easy, but he uses two basic fighting skills, while using active skills. When he exchanged blows with the monster, he realized its flaws, and he corrected its flaws using another skill. I thought I had found the answer, but a 13-year-old girl has this much fighting ability.
Aside from the consumption of Mana, his mental drain and stamina should be extremely high, yet he did everything easily. Seeing him made his blood coagulate, and at the same time, it made him admire him.
He fought with the armored knights, yet he put on a face as if nothing was wrong. He checked Artpe.
“Artpe. Where are you ….. ”
“I've had enough.”
Actually, he didn't know if he had enough. If he continued to consume magical energy at this speed, even Artpe would run out of Mana.
However, Artpe did not want Maetel to look back at him, so he spoke confidently. Of course, he would consume the Mana potion in secret.
“Good.”
Maetel never suspected Artpe. She always believed him, so a grin appeared on her face when she heard his words. He once again leaps forward against his enemy using Bash's skills.
“Then I will be able to win. Huhhhhp! ”
Once again, Maetel and the Death Knight exchanged blows. Maetel was able to perfectly execute the Bash skill using her sword, and she attacked the same location on the long sword she struck earlier. However, the Death Knight quickly realized his tactics. The armored knight let out a shout as he twisted his sword. The point of impact on the sword had changed.
(You're pretty smart. I think the only thing on your head is love, lust and anger.)
“Betul. I just have it …. But that was enough for me! ”
(How laughable!)
Even if his strength and experience were gathered into one being, he still had equipment that was only around level 150. It was an excellent battle plan to attack weapons rather than the monsters themselves.
No one taught him this tactic, but he did. It is not known if he understood what he was doing.
(Your intentions are commendable, but is that really enough? Even now I can feel your anger deepening. Your rationality is fading, and is being possessed by your instincts. It's blunting your sword. This fact made me slowly become stronger. … I just have to wait when my sword can penetrate your heart.)
“There's no way I'll let you do as you please.”
Maetel's clash with the Death Knight gradually escalated. Maetel's swordsmanship had been trained through direct combat, and he had only attacked the Death Knight's weak point. The Death Knight used all of his veterinary knowledge to turn away all of his sword attacks.
Both of their attacks failed to touch each other's defensive gears. The weapons take over the burden of damage.
(Koohk, koo-hah ……! You don't have a chance!)
“That's my sentence!”
The Death Knight innocently believed that Maetel had reached the pinnacle of his skill. However, only Artpe knew the truth.
Answer's simple. Maetel is improving even now. The effects of the Berserk skill did not dull his sword. Instead, his senses had sharpened to an extreme.
(Weak! It is impossible for you to continue like this!)
“Yes, I'm weak .. However, I will become stronger .....!”
(If one could become stronger just by saying so, this world would have no practitioners!)
The sword collides with the sword. The Death Knight's shield was swung towards Maetel's head, but it was uselessly passing through the air.
After which, Maetel kicked the bastard on his knee, and the Death Knight's demeanor was thrown with a small amount. He immediately followed her with a sword attack. This was a technique he had never shown until now.
(Da!)
“Koo-oohk!”
It was just as the Death Knight had said before, he had never had a chance to swing his weapon at an enemy on par with him. However, for the first time, he was facing an enemy that seemed to be a knight, and he had no choice but to fight it using high-level weapon skills.
Coincidentally, this opportunity gave him the opportunity to combine all of his techniques.
In the past, he had swung his sword by following his instincts, but now he had seen how others handled their swords. He now knew how he had to move his body. His body discovered how to maximize the power of his sword. Basically, the Death Knight had been his tutor for a day.
(Maethel)
(Level – 124)
(Switchcraft science Lv19)
In real time, the Weaponless Combat skill and Sword skill increased. His simple and brutal sword attack now showed variety and subtlety. There was a different level of strength within him when he took a step forward or backward.
An attack that he was unable to endure before was obstructed with impunity. At first, the Death Knight knew where the sword was coming from, but he attacked his long sword before the Death Knight realized it was coming. At that moment, the Death Knight could not help, but realized.
(You ****** …. How ....!?)
“Do you have nothing else you can show me?…. If so, you cannot win against Me. ”
(How …. What'sthis?)
There is a difference between knowing the answer, and the answer engraved on your body. However, the two things were basically interchangeable for Maetel.
That's fucked. He was a genius so ridiculous that such a chaotic thing might happen.
(You really are a miracle. When you first entered the Dungeon, I couldn't believe how inexperienced you were. What made you become like this? You're with a cheat. How does your pure mind not deteriorate by becoming associated with it?)
“Hoo-ahhhhhhp!”
(Gee!)
Maetel gave no reply as she used her Bash skill. Of course, his Bash skill had developed during the battle. The Death Knight had to exert more power to block his attacks. However, the Death Knight still had room to breathe.
(Even if you can grow quickly, there must be a wall that you cannot jump over! In the end, you will fall to your knees and die. Do you realize the difference in the amount of Mana we have? Let's see how long you can keep swinging your sword with such strength.)
“I will not ...... I will protect Artpe!”
(You risked your life for a worthless human being! Is your life worth a little, hero? You can't sacrifice yourself for a man like him! You have to sacrifice yourself for humanity!)
“I'll choose who I'll protect! I don't care about people I haven't met! The person who is most precious to me is Artpe! ”
If someone else sees this scene, people will think this is a scene before******* where each party thinks that their side is right. Actually, this was just a boss fight within a novice Dungeon. Artpe was a bit confused as he watched the fierce fight from behind.
“The bastard treated me like I was the Demon King ..”
When Artpe's party entered the 35th floor, he remembered that the anger of all the Death Knights had focused on him.
Right now, the Death Knight was stuck facing Maetel, due to Artpe's absolute defense. If Artpe gave him a piece of opportunity, the Death Knight would immediately try to decapitate Artpe.
If Artpe was killed, the Mana Link between the two of them would be dismissed. In turn, Maetel would not be able to maintain her Berserk skills. He used a valid tactic.
“I cannot step forward into battle. I'll have to wait to find out my fate is uncertain. This situation fits perfectly with the weakest among the Four Heavenly Kings so I have no words to say as a rebuttal. ”
If his life wasn't at stake, he wouldn't care if he was a main or additional character. However, his head would be cut off from his body when the hero became a little tired. It was a sad situation.
“Stay, I am no longer the weakest among the Four Heavenly King.”
Artpe laughed bitterly as he lifted his shield.
It seemed that the bastard was too shocked by Maetel's talent that it was under a misunderstanding. Maetel does have an amazing talent, which can surprise anyone. However, the person responsible for complicating the situation was Artpe. He had a foul smile on his face.
The Death Knight probably thought Artpe would lower his guard if he focused on Maetel. Of course it won't happen. Artpe acted as if he was twisting his shield, but he was already emitting several hundred to several thousand Mana Threads. In the process, he had already consumed five bottles of Mana potions. He only had one Mana Potion left.
“Link Records still covers the entire Dungeon.”
To be exact, it covered the Dungeon from the 6th floor to the 35th floor. If Artpe did not play around with it, they would have to fight with all the monsters on the 6th floor. They're gonna die.
After all, Artpe had messed up the Record Link placed above the Dungeon, and he had split the Dungeon back into several floors. This meant that the newborn monster passing through the 6th floor had no idea what was going on. They would only be linked to monsters on the same floor, and they would have to wait until the challengers came. It will remain so until he cancels what he did to Record Link.
So what if ….
“What will happen if I cancel the ban on Link Links? Have you thought about it? ”
Artpe deliberately said those words out loud. He did it to make a gap.
(What....?)
“Huh!”
The plan is very effective. For a moment, he stopped swinging his sword. As if he had been waiting for this moment, Maetel kicked the ground as he leaped towards the Death Knight. He stabbed his sword. A clear voice rang out, and the Death Knight's sword broke in the middle.
(Kow!)
The Death Knight finally regained consciousness. It took him half a step back to regain his standing. It pushed its shield slightly forward, and it unsheathed the secondary weapon. It gripped a long dagger as it glared towards Maetel and Artpe.
(What do you think you can accomplish by breaking my sword, hero? I have already grasped the fact that you are consuming Mana at an alarming speed. Also, do you think you can shake me with such words, brat with foul eyes “There is no way you will do something that will only benefit us.)
“No, you are not completely right.”
Record Link is a skill that unites the records of everything that is bound by magic. It gathered battle experience, skills, magical energy and stamina in one place.
However, Record Link had a huge disadvantage. There are several reasons why this magic spell is forbidden. However, this particular weakness was the most fatal and annoying reason of them all.
“Why do you think I raised this shield until now? If you think hard about it, you probably know it …. ”
Maetel breathed violently as she stirred up fury from within as she fought the Death Knight. The Death Knight had no choice but to retreat. It was trying to stay calm while looking for an opportunity to counterattack. Artpe grinned when he saw the Death Knight.
“Ha! Maetel, you must look out for the fallen monsters and the upheaval around you! ”
He had extended several thousand Mana Threads to its limit. He had tied a part of the Note Link to cause a change to it. He did this just a year ago.
Now he's uncovering all the changes he's caused!
“Kyahhhhhhk!”
(Are you really ..!)
Dungeon vibrating. The Dungeon, which had been separated into floors, was being merged into one floor in no time! Record Link, which had been tied into small pieces, was intact back. Once again surround the entire Dungeon.
The ceiling that separated the 6th floor to the 35th floor melted down in an instant. The skeletons and Ghouls that had been reformed in the past year were once again tied to the Record Link. Now they fall from above. It was a scene that bore a strong resemblance to hell!
(Are you probably trying to make a crack by making a mess !? It's futile. What you are doing now is called a stupid mistake ..).
“It was impossible to do this one year ago, because my stamina and magical energy were lacking. That was impossible even half a year ago! ”
Artpe threw his shield into the air. His shield throwing technique had matured in the last year. He can throw it fast and high. He quickly and ruthlessly killed all the fallen Zombies and Ghouls.
“However, it's possible now. I was pretty thorough in preparing for this! ”
Record Link regained his full strength. This meant that all the records of the dead monsters would be shared with the Death Knight.
Strength, intelligence, stamina, magical energy, recording, and.
(Koohkkkos. You're a bastard ....!?)
“You will get all the curses I put on everything.”
The curse piled up as he killed all the monsters. In an instant, the Death Knight's movements slowed down. He had a crooked smile on his face as he watched the shocked Death Knight.
It was an evil smile that matched the Demon King.
