World's Fastest Level up!

I decided what I should do in front of a strong enemy I couldn’t win against. That’s right, now that it has become like this, using [Transfer Within Dungeon] would be the best choice to escape from this situation.

That’s why I am…

“My bad, this is to buy some time.”

While saying that, I took the explosive magic stone that I had just obtained from the item box and charged it with magical power before throwing it at the Nameless Knight.

And the next moment, the explosive magic stone released a large amount of smoke along with the violent sound of an explosion. With this, neither the Nameless Knight nor I could see each other.

“_?!”

In the depth of smoke, I knew that the Nameless Knight was confused. Because besides robbing the field of vision, this smoke also contains various components that monsters hate. Hence, the Nameless Knight might be instinctively repellent to it.

However, as expected of a monster that has some intelligence. In only less than a few seconds, the Nameless Knight blew the smoke away with a strong swing of its sword. But once the Nameless Knight was able to see me, I had already succeeded in buying time to activate my skill.

And then, I only needed to say [Transfer Within Dungeon] to escape from the current situation—yet…

At that time when the rumor about how my unique skill [Transfer Within Dungeon] was incompetent spread, the surrounding adventurers said this to me.

You are unsuitable to be an adventurer. So, it’s better for you to quit being an adventurer and search for an ordinary job. Because it was meaningless to believe that [Transfer Within Dungeon] will awaken and become a useful skill in the future.

Truth to be told, I understood it too. That their words were correct. And I, who delusionally believed in myself and continued to be an adventurer without being able to become stronger nor earn that much money, was wrong. Even so, I still earnestly kept moving forward.

It doesn’t matter even if it’s wrong.

It doesn’t matter how stupid it was.

Because it’s more important to stick to my beliefs and move forward than follow what others say is ‘the right path.’

That’s why, right now in this place and in a desperate situation like this, even if it was the right choice to use [Transfer Within Dungeon] and escape from this situation…

Such a shitty thing…I will deny it from the bottom of my heart.

Because if I lower my head down in front of what people said was right. If I bend my knee in front of despair. If I stopped my feet because of a dream that was difficult to realize. I am sure I…

“Have quitted being an adventurer a long time ago.”

Hearing that kind of words from me with its back facing me, the Nameless Knight turned around in a hurry as if it was astonished. However, it was already too late as I was already holding my Yumemi Dagger with both of my hands.

Previously, I had done two things after I threw the explosive magic stone and before activating [Transfer Within Dungeon]. The first one was drinking an intermediate HP recovery pill to restore my HP from 1315 to 2315. And the other was selecting new skills.

At that moment, I operated my status screen and raised the level of a certain skill. And that skill was [Herculean Strength] that raised my attack power from level 4 to level 6 using 1100 SP. This would increase my attack power from +500 to +1050.

After that, I don’t think there was even a need to explain. I used [Transfer Within Dungeon] to transfer to the back of the Nameless Knight and not outside the room. All in order to release a deadly blow to the Nameless Knight that was currently full of gaps.

Because [Transfer Within Dungeon] takes a long time to activate, I cannot use it many times during combat. That’s why this should be considered my last chance.

_Now, this was the moment to counterattack!

“Eat this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

With a firm grip, I aimed the Yumemi Dagger at the unprotected back of the Nameless Knight and thrust it with all my might.

Perhaps because I increased my attack power to the limit, the armor that was only scratched even after I did my best to attack it before this, finally cracked.

However, maybe because I used too much power in exchange for releasing a powerful blow, my dagger shattered into pieces.

But—

“Not yet!!”

I took out the Orc’s Stone Ax from my [Item Box] and brandished it. Although the feeling of using it was completely different from a dagger, for destroying an armor, this one was more suitable!

And as expected, it was right as The Orc Stone Ax shattered the back part of the Nameless Knight’s armor.

“One more blow—tsu!?”

However, the Nameless Knight wasn’t simple enough to get killed just like this. At the next moment, the Nameless Knight turned around with a terrifying response and faced me head-on. But that was still within my expectation.

“Once more, eat this!”

I swung the stone ax at the Nameless Knight’s left elbow faster than it could release an attack. Then, I cut off its arm alongside its armor causing its left arm and the sword it held to be tossed into the air.

And then, the Nameless Knight who lost both of its arms and couldn’t use a weapon anymore showed its will to resist even though normally it should have given up in this kind of situation.

“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!”

It released an indescribable roar and the eyes behind the armor glowed red as if all of its limiters had been released just before it died.

However, your turn will never come.

“This time surely, let’s end this.”

I threw the stone ax and grabbed the Nameless Knight’s sword that was tossed into the air.contemporary romance

Although I didn’t have leeway to use my [Appraisal] to check it, it was a sword wielded by a very powerful enemy after all, hence, this sword was surely incomparably stronger than Yumemi Dagger and Orc Stone Ax.

With both of my hands, I gripped the sword that the Nameless Knight held with one hand and raised it above my head. Then, I faced the rush of the Nameless Knight who had lost its reasoning and instinctively attacked me head-on.

“Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!”

“Uooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!”

Tenchi Issen. 1

A simple attack that slashes straight down from above. But that's why it was possible for it to become an attack which has maximum firepower. And right now, that possibility has become a reality.

The Nameless Knight whose body was cut in half by my swing collapsed on the spot. And the only one left standing in this room was me who had finished swinging the sword.

Then, I used the sword like a walking stick to support my body which was about to collapse, and threw some last words at the powerful enemy that had just lost its life.

“You are undoubtedly the strongest enemy I’ve ever fought—Nameless Knight.”

Thus, I successfully defeated the Nameless Knight.
