Chapter 31: Against The High Orc
“…I ended up arriving here, huh”
Honestly, this was unexpected because I didn’t think I would reach the lowest floor today.
“The problem is whether I should challenge the boss or not…Umu.”
I have no reason to not challenge it even after considering various conditions— such as my HP that hardly decreased because I completely avoided the monster’s attacks when I fought them, and my MP that still has a lot remaining because I only used it to activate [Beginner Magic].
“Besides, it’s a hassle if I need to spend five hours to get back to the surface from here. I guess those guys who left Yui alone in the dungeon had similar feelings as I am now.”
I was suddenly able to understand their feelings at a weird timing like this. Well, putting that aside.
“Just in case, I’m going to drink an MP recovery pill to completely recover my MP…Yosh, shall we go?”
Then, I opened the door of the boss room and smiled bitterly when I saw the opponent that I’m going to fight.
“…I’m going to fight this now, huh.”
The monster has a trained body that was over 2 meters in height. And it held a huge club the size of a human body in its hand.
This monster was undoubtedly the most powerful monster I’ve ever seen.
______________–
[High Orc]
・Recommended level to subjugate: 500
・Dungeon Boss of Kenzaki Dungeon
・ High-ranking species of Orc. A giant brown colored monster with a pig’s face that uses a big club or an ax as its weapons. With powerful strength and speed, a blow of this monster could easily destroy the ground.
_______________
It seems the high orc has identified me as its enemy as it was looking at me with a terrifying glint in its eyes that seemed to pierce my body.
“….I guess I have no choice but to do it.”
I held my dagger as I made up my mind to fight this boss. Thus, my battle with the dungeon boss of Kenzaki Dungeon, High Orc has begun.
“GRAAAAAAAAAAAA!”
The first to make a move was the high orc.
It swiftly reduced the distance between us with a speed that doesn’t match its huge body. Then, it raised the big club with both of its hands and powerfully swung it down!
“Kuh! What power!”
Although I was able to avoid its attack, my foothold was violently shaken due to being hit by such a powerful attack. If I directly received its attack that has a speed comparable to Horned Rabbit and power that far exceeds Red Boar, my HP might be reduced by half.
Still, if I continue to defend, I will surely lose a means to escape sooner or later—If that’s the case!
“Next is my turn!”
After increasing my speed in one go, I approached the high orc while running left and right to confuse it. In addition, because the high orc’s weapon is a huge club, it should be difficult for the high orc to attack an opponent who moves right and left like me.
“_-Now!”
I slashed my dagger at the high orc that was not able to keep up with my movements. Thus, I was able to slash the high orc’s belly as deep as possible.
However—
“It seems, the high orc isn’t very concerned about that wound because of how big its body is, huh.”
Without showing a hint of pain, the high orc violently swings its club.
Although the club has a wide attack range because of how large it is, it wasn’t difficult to avoid it if I calmly deal with it. Rather, the moment the high orc swings its club is a great chance for me to launch a counterattack.
“Haa!”
“GAAAAA!”
I swiftly move to the back of the high orc and slashed the back knee of its right leg. Because the high orc didn’t show any reaction when I attacked its body. So, it would be better to destroy its joint and hinder the high orc movement.
“Not yet!”contemporary romance
From there on, it was a one-sided battle.
The high orc was confused every time it was injured and those moments made it easier for me to attack. I slashed its arms, legs, and back over and over again.
And then, the huge club that the high orc held fell to the ground because the high orc’s tendon got cut off. Needless to say, that was because even if it’s bit by bit, the damage of each swing can inflict a fatal wound to the high orc.
However, the moment I thought I would be able to kill it by doing that a few more times, the high orc’s terrifying eyes illuminated a light that I’ve never seen before. It was the eyes that showed he was going to retaliate.
The high orc opened its mouth wide and looked in my direction. I guess it wanted to use a roar with all its might. However—
“Do you think I will let you?”
–I sneaked into the bosom of the high orc faster than the high orc could finish what it was about to do. Then, I held my dagger with my other hand and swung it with all my might.
And the tip of my dagger deeply pierced the neck of the high orc to its core. The high orc collapsed with blood vigorously sprouting from its neck when I pulled out my dagger. Then, the system’s sounds reverberated in my mind right after that.
『Dungeon boss has been defeated』
『Experience acquired Level increased by 4』
『Dungeon Capture Reward – Level increased by 25』
“Fuu… I finally won huh.”
Thus, the battle between the high orc and me ended with my overwhelming victory with neither my MP nor HP decreasing.
