Chapter 143 – District 2 (22)
16. District 2 (22)
I grabbed both of Illumina’s cheeks and pulled her. I’m sorry for her, who seemed to be quite shocked, but she couldn’t afford to soothe her affectionately.
“Pluck the third string right now!”
“Sorry… Sorry… Me, that’s not me…”
“Right now!!!”
“Kyaaaaah!”
He roughly grabbed Illumina’s ears and tail. Even though she was free from the cunning tricks of her eyes, she continued to shed tears of sorry as she screamed in her pain. She was sorry But it worked.
“Ah, uh, uh…”
“Illumina. Do you come to your senses?”
“Ah…”
“I can’t afford to be like this. Uh? Hurry!”
“Yes…”
[Attack Melody]
[The melody of Illumina soothes the hearts of the warriors.]
[All warriors’ mentality +2]
[Recovers an additional 1 point of mentality due to the ‘Natural Songwriter’ feature.]
[All warriors’ critical strike rate +5]
[All warriors speed +1]
[Due to the ‘Innate Songwriter’ feature, the critical strike rate increases by 1.]
Due to the melody effect of the raid, the speed of all warriors increased by 1. But it was too late. If Illumina had won the speed roll, she would have had Kaya and Shay’s speed equal that of the pup before she was attacked, and Kaya, Shay, and pup would have rolled for speed once again.
‘Even if I hold on to what has passed and blame it, nothing will change… Whoa…’
Since Shay’s speed was reduced by 1, it was Kaya’s turn without a speed roll. She seemed to have come to her senses somewhat while I pushed Illumina. Even though her limbs are shaking and her eyes are wandering, compared to earlier when she hugged me and cried endlessly…
“Leader… Leader… I… I am…”
Looking back, it didn’t seem like that, but I couldn’t help it. I believed that if I gave a strong command and fought like that, I would come to my senses again. We have fought in even more extreme conditions than this.
“Kaya! It is an order!”
“Captain, as you wish…”
[Battle Sister’s Vow]
[Kaya’s HP is reduced by 4.]
[Remaining HP 13/20]
[Recovers the HP of the ally with the lowest HP by 20% of the damage dealt to the monster. The second lowest ally heals for half that amount.]
I thought about whether to slap that guy’s head, make a climax cut, or make him make a vow to recover his physical strength. In the end, I chose option 3. The loss of mentality was also a problem, but it was because Illumina only had 5 HP left. I don’t think any of us mattered, but he was already a boss specializing in mentality attacks. Illumina was the first target of protection.
[Shay’s tenacity]
[For 3 turns, you will never be pushed back.]
[Shay’s defense increases by 1.]
[Shay has designated Illumina as the target of protection. Shay endures the damage Illumina has suffered so far.]
[Shay’s HP decreases by 10.]
[Shay remaining HP 13/24]
[Illumina remaining HP 15/15]
[If Illumina is attacked, Shay will defend instead (her defense -33%).]
So was Shay. She was the one who ordered Akkaya to make a vow for this connection in the first place. Because he was a front row and back row guy who could attack at will, it was clear that if Shay didn’t protect him and Illumina attacked again, there was a high probability that he would fall into death.
In the second round, the minstrel Sakyung against the bastard?
There was nothing more to see.
So I ordered to protect Illumina. Just relieved of her mental anguish, she immediately struggled with the added pain. But did the pain stimulate her?
Shay’s expression, holding on to the Claymore as a cane, was full of venom.
She said, ‘Keep it, for I have commanded you to bear her pain…’
I will put your pain into this axe and wield it.
I’m going to sever that fucking-eyed bastard with the blade of an axe!
“Keep your eyes peeled bastard!!!”
“Dare… !”
“Fuck you dare!”
[Crush the head]
[A powerful blow!]
[Eugene deals 23 damage to the Horror Eye.]
[Remaining HP 149/173]
[A ray of hope settles in the hearts of the warriors.]
[Shay Mentality +4]
[Kaya Mentality +5]
[Eugene mentality +4]
[Illumina mentality +5]
Could it be because the attack’s melody correction worked properly on the critical strike rate correction artifact? From the first attack, the fatal blow exploded. However, the moment I saw the damage, I had a double desire. It’s a humanoid stigma critical hit, but 23 damage? I know it even if I don’t count. It was almost mindem level.
‘Fuck the mindem that didn’t show up that much when stalling!’
Even though I got a fatal blow, I didn’t feel good. Considering the mental anguish her co-workers must have suffered, even feeding her twice this amount was not enough…
“Sniff…”
Illumina stood blankly and sobbed. She met her eyes with her. She hurriedly wiped away her tears with her hand and looked at me as she crouched down. It was clearly a reaction that scared me. Taste was bitter.
“Illumina.”
“Ugh, ugh.”
“This melody. Overlap please.”
“Yes… ? Okay, okay?”
[Brightness: 49]
“It’s okay.”
“Okay… I will… Ji, faster than the gale, sharper than the wind…”
[Attack Melody (2)]
[The melody of Illumina soothes the hearts of the warriors.]
[All warriors’ mentality +2]
[Recovers an additional 1 point of mentality due to the ‘Natural Songwriter’ feature.]
[All warriors’ critical strike rate +5]
[All warriors speed +1]
[Due to the ‘Innate Songwriter’ feature, the critical strike rate increases by 1.]
[Effects no longer stack.]
[The stacked melody lasts for 3 turns.]
[You cannot use the raid melody again for this battle only.]
2 stacks of Raiding Melody, all warriors speed +2, critical strike +12.
Shay’s Illumina close protection, Illumina’s buff, Kaya’s vow, and even my brand.
All base work has been completed.
Just like the name of the melody, it was now time for us to attack that bastard.
[Speed check]
Shay: 5
Kaya: 6
Eugene: 9
Illumina: 7
Horror Eyes: 5
Kaya’s speed overtook that of the snow pup.
“Kaya.”
“Yes, chief…”
“I put the pain we had to go through in my axe.”
“…”
Jerebuck-
Kaya didn’t rush as usual. She faced the arrogant stare of the evil-eyed bastard as she slowly moved forward.
[Everything according to God’s will]
[Kaya deals 12 damage to the Horror Eye.]
[Remaining HP 137/173]
[Shay’s HP is restored by 2.]
[Remaining HP 15/24]
[Kaya’s HP is restored by 1.]
[Remaining HP 14/20]
Considering the fact that there was no critical hit and the defense power of the snowball, the damage wasn’t bad. However, it was difficult to see Kaya drooping.
[The speed of Shay’s and Horror Eyes is the same.]
[Speed roll]
Shay: 4
Horror Eyes: 2
[Shay’s turn precedes Horror Eye’s turn.]
Without saying a word, she looked at Kaya, who returned expressionless, and as her stomach burned, she heard good news. Shay had won the speed roll.
“Shay!”
“…”
[Feature ‘Sadism’ is activated.]
[The attack goes out of control.]
[Judgement of Justice]
[Shay deals 2 damage to the Horror Eye.]
[Remaining HP 135/173]
[The eyes of fear resist judgment.]
[The eyes of fear resist the status ‘stunning’.]
She also swung her claymore at her eyes without saying a word.
“Shay, you…”
“…”
She had no intention of arguing about the skills she used or the damage itself. But it hadn’t even been eroded yet, but the fact that negative traits burst out, this was a very bad sign.
‘You’d better curse at me, Shay… It’s even scarier because he doesn’t say anything with such a devil-like face… Where did the sobbing scene from earlier go?’
After our rather disappointing turn, it was the second turn of the snow pup.
‘Three-streak wide area is over pants.’
The analysis of the fear experienced as soon as the first entry was made, and the mirror of fear experienced in the first turn. There weren’t any skills that weren’t shit, but at least in The Long Terror, I never used the same skills consecutively.
“It’s worth seeing because the warriors who came all the way struggled so desperately, but in the end they were foolish people who went against his will.”
The color of the eyes, which had been stained black, began to change.
Completely red-hot.
‘Single skill! By the way, to whom?’
If my prediction is correct, that was the precursor to a single skill, ‘Gaze of Horror’, that drastically lowers a hero’s mentality and even applies a debuff. The evil eyes, as if blood would drip at any moment, looked over at us and stopped at a certain point.
“Hey!”
It was Illumina.
“Me, me, that bastard!”
“I will defile and destroy this place, and make you regret coming all the way here.”
“No!!”
“Shut up in fear. Be consumed by fear I will finally succumb to fear.”
A dark red flash was fired at Illumina. Illumina hugged her vapa and made her tremble. Crouching over her body, she seemed unable to even think of avoiding it.
[Shay’s protection is activated.]
[Receives an attack directed at Illumina instead.]
[Shay’s defense is reduced by 4.]
However, the flash did not hit Illumina. Shay popped out of nowhere and blocked her path. The dark red light swallowed Shay instead of Illumina. The sight was so ominous and terrifying. It looked like a waterfall of Shay’s blood.
“Shay… What is this!”
Couldn’t reach It was as if there was a solid wall. Shay’s expression or condition was unknown.
“Ahhh…”
Illumina had a devastated expression. She was stunned that she had almost been struck by that eerie light, and seemed to feel immense guilt that Shay was hit instead because of her.
Kwaaaaa-
The light slowly faded. Shay’s outline began to show again. She approached She didn’t have the same wall as before. Her expression was hidden by her hair, but she was alive. She called her name
“She…”
It hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts
Stop it, stop it, stop it, please stop it, stop it, stop it
I will kill you, I will kill you, please I will kill you, I will kill you, I will kill you
It hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts
I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry
Why please why why why why why please why why why why why why why please why why why why why why-
“… … .”
[Gaze of Horror]
[The Eye of Horror deals 1 damage to Shay.]
[Remaining HP 14/24]
[The hero encountered extreme fear.]
[The hero receives severe mental damage.]
[Shay Mentality – 44]
[The fear binds the hero’s body.]
[Reduces Shay’s minimum attack power by 2 and maximum attack power by 3]
[Shay’s accuracy and evasion rate decrease.]
“Don’t come, don’t come, don’t come, don’t come, don’t come!!!!!”
Shay, who had tears of blood flowing from her eyes, struggled with her limbs and tried to get as far away as possible.
