Chapter 8 – Resolution as a Demon Hero
I woke up early in the morning and had a simple breakfast. I think I woke up an hour earlier than usual.
Maybe that’s why her mother was still in a dreamland. It’s kind of sad that she doesn’t go out to see her mother.
“Son!”
Late mother. At least you see her face, heh yeah.
“Let’s eat well and go!”
“Please cook. I’ll be back before the rice gets cold.”
Oh, I think I’m a little cool. It’s sick, but
Her mother covered her mouth with her hand and her eyes moistened.
“Haha, my son is great!♥”
Left the house She warmed up lightly and headed for the swamp.
Ishizu asked from the mental world.
〈 What is that poor comment?〉
‘Ah, Goddess. It’s kind of hip, this. It’s a trend!’
〈 Hip? Are you saying that the sound of ridicule comes from the hips?〉
‘… No. I’ll just shut up. Hmm.’
My humor doesn’t work. Well, even if I think about it, my humor is a bit like that.
But i’m talented No mercy below the waist!
It is said that the swampy area, to be precise, the wetland area was originally developed for agricultural purposes.
But at some point, that changed. At one time, the grass would have swayed pleasantly and trees would have grown there.
We passed the edge of the forest and came to a wetland.
‘As far as I can remember, Necro Slimes fought parasitically on goblins or gnolls at most. As long as I handle it well, it’s okay.’
Contrary to what everyone was worried about, I knew how to deal with monsters. Even though it was a bad game, the setting was delicious, and the design of the female characters and voice acting were good.
I looked down. The ground was getting muddy, but I wasn’t worried.
A steel sword that can be used often because it doesn’t melt well with shoes that don’t get penalty.
That was enough.
〈Can I help you?〉
It seems that Ishizu is a little annoyed. She’d think her own first apostle might die.
“Right, Goddess. Can you promise me something?”
〈 What is it? 〉
“No matter what happens, even if I die, don’t help me.”
Maybe that sounds crazy You might want to look back.
But it was a matter of pride. At best, a guy with unique abilities and knowledge.
The first heroine who was lucky enough to borrow only the power of the Goddess?
It was like a parasite.
〈 Are you ignoring that I have no power now? 〉
“That’s not it. Even though the goddess has no power, she is beautiful and noble in her very existence.”
It was sincere. She had no intention of ignoring her powerlessness.
When Ishizu let out her snort in embarrassment, she said right away.
“It’s just because I want to show and prove to the goddess and to myself. I want to do everything on my own, without the help of others. I will become a hero, I am not a child.”
Did my sincerity work? Ishizu started laughing.
Then, as her pitch increased, she turned into a screeching smile.
〈 I saw the person correctly! Rash, you are not a bug. You are a warrior who deserves to be my spouse!〉
“Melee… Yo. This?”
Talking about your spouse all of a sudden? Ishizu cleared his throat.
〈 Kuhmm, nothing. Then show me your will!〉
“All right!”
Gradually went deep into the wetlands. Even in the midst of this, I couldn’t see even a normal slime, let alone a necro slime.
In fact, this is because this area is where adventurers and aspiring heroes often come and train.
Why are you training? Slimes suck. Best way to get experience.
‘But it’s not a zero for me.’
It wasn’t to my liking. It wouldn’t matter if it was a goblin or a game, but there wasn’t much benefit from catching slime.
Going further inside, I found a lung.
‘It was built with the original farmland planned, so there must be a building. But what is that? Load… Is it?’
As I got closer, I saw a suitcase lying near the entrance.
Hey, what kind of luggage is that?
I looked it up just in case.
Back and forth.
“No way.”
Everything inside was rotten or rotten, making it difficult to use.
Without the ability to turn trash into trees, it was a blast.
But the luggage itself seemed very recent. There was mold spreading, but it was relatively clean.
‘Who the hell is here? I don’t think it’s possible to go this deep?’
Although necro slime is okay, it’s only possible for someone like me who knows how to deal with it.
It was feared by most beginner adventurers and aspiring heroes.
It’s scary from the very beginning. It’s a dark gray watermelon-sized slime that clings to the corpse and controls it.
Cheekyuk, kihihi profit.
I raised my head. The closed door suddenly opened.
Is it windy? No, it’s not the wind when you hear the sound of even opening the lock.
Tumble.
It seemed like someone was coming out. He stepped back and drew his sword.
“Gureuk, guruk.”
Surprisingly, what came out of the abandoned house was a necro slime. It came out just as I expected.
‘You finally came out… Eh?’
But it was a little different. The corpse it was parasitizing on was not a plaything or a goblin, but a human.
It was parasitized by people with skinny muscles and knuckles. Wait, why are humans here?
Even quests?!
『Side Quest』
◆Duel!
-Goal: Destroy the necro slimes parasitized on human corpses.
-Reward: 5000CP, affinity with all heroines +♡
What is it, the reward looks very appetizing? Are you attracted?!
‘Why not goblin or play, but a person?!’
I tried carefully. He must have already died, and his eyes were rotten black.
If it was the owner of that luggage, it would have been a while since he died.
I could see two glowing rings on the pit side.
For one thing, it wasn’t dimly shining like Aveiro’s, it was shining intensely. Cursing came out of nowhere.
‘Oh, fuck. Aveiro is a guy who has just taken a midterm. Anyone can see that this guy has been training for a long time in the middle, right?’
It’s a big deal. That guy is much stronger than Aveiro. Why did that guy die here, and the slime parasitized?
It’s a billion, it’s a fucking severe billion.
Even though it was already a corpse, two force hearts were shining openly. The slime turned its head around to see if it recognized me. Mouth open.
“Gaaaaa…”
“Now, it’s time for Show and Probe.”
I pointed my sword at the guy. He got into a fighting stance. It was different from what I expected, but I still tried to fight.
〈 I can’t. I will help you.〉
‘Don’t step out, never. If you care about me, if you like me.’
I urged you to move forward. It growled like an animal, then leaped to close the distance.
[Leonhard Absolute Blade – Nameless Thrust]
The moment I was about to land, I hit him with a cotton stab. From the beginning, it’s a Leonhard Absolute Sword!
The guy spun his ankle lightly as he landed and dodged to the side.
Also, the movements are different.
Tup!
Got caught by the guy In an instant, the earth and sky turned upside down, and I felt a sharp pain in the back of my head.
Quay yet! Shiver.
“Ugh!”
He grabbed me by the collar and threw me into an abandoned house. He slammed into the wall and barely got up on his own two feet.
I was too quick to react. As soon as I got into my stance, I lowered my upper body just as he had come running.
Tup, percussion!
In an instant, I was caught in a double leg takedown. The one who occupied the top position lifted his fist from me.
‘The best move a fighter can make against a swordsman. Now, he must have been quite promising in his lifetime. But.’
Admit it, your skills.
But what if you have lower back strength that exceeds your ability?
Took!
Bounced the opponent with the strength of the waist. The guy’s posture collapsed.
He grabbed his sword briefly and swung it right away.
Zaaaaagh!
The dark-skinned man stepped back with his head cut in half. He rolled back and got up and caught his breath.
‘Do you think I can’t handle this? What I was trained by my mother comes out automatically. Scary, scary.’
Laughed And he provoked
“Hey, the man is Waist strengthSay!”
Shim Ik-hyeon’s Signature danceWhen I danced, the guy swayed and rushed.
Whoops!
A creepy sound cutting through the wind. I reflexively raised my sword and blocked it.
Tae-aeng!
A steel sword rang. As if blocking a blunt weapon.
Concentrated. If you lose here, you will die. But I don’t want to die
It’s a world where only women who haven’t eaten yet!
Woo-wook! Quick!
Calf kick, followed by an oblique kick.
After that, he turned around and attempted a flat cut. After he quickly evaded and caught my side, a series of attacks unfolded.
Puck puck, puck!
Calf kick after two body shots.
I couldn’t block or avoid it. That’s how big the difference was with just one Force Heart.
He pushed back and gritted his teeth.
‘Too fast. I’m not joking!’
Get back into position. Remember being trained by your mother.
It is not my memory, but now think of what will be my memory.
As if you experienced it yourself, engrave the harshness of that day into your soul!
‘I need to get rid of the idea of seeing and responding. I can do it, I can do it!’
It moved forward and cut in a straight line. He lowered his upper body and jabbed me in the pit of my stomach.
“Ouch!”
Tadadat, Huuk. Knock!
When I managed to block the flying knee kick, he took a detour to my side and showered me with fists before I knew it.
Baba Baba Baba Bak!
An opponent who attacks like a beast while rushing like a storm.
The momentum alone was nothing short of a disaster. Even so, I couldn’t help but laugh.
‘This is a real runner’s heavy base!’
I felt alive. I could die at any time, but I realized that if I overcome this, a great reward is waiting for me in life.
In reality, I was just waiting for the military enlistment Helpless bastardWas Just an ordinary guy in Korea, Gamdori.
I was thrown into this life. No regrets. Come, Hit it with all your might!
Hoo-wook, Papabak!
He rushed like the wind and threw a jab. I tried to avoid it with weaving, but the guy’s back hand came forward and gave me a continuous hook. He raised his sword and blocked it.
Tae Tae-Taeng and Chae-Aeng!
‘I’m not going to stop like this! Show and prove!’
Stab again.
The opponent digs into the side and throws a hook to the face. Still can’t see
I was hit and pushed aside, but I finally felt it.
The guy’s flow.
[Leonhard Absolute Blade – Reverse Flow]
The guy from the other side is aiming for the vertical elbow. He momentarily brings the sword to the side and spills it.
Parrying.
He was hit by the reverse flow, which is the defense and parrying of the Leonhard Absolute Sword style.
His movements faltered and he hesitated. In the gap, he operated his ki.
I activate all the qi in my body. It’s the other half that doesn’t even receive mana, but it’s a skill that can barely be operated with the lineage of a hero.
Use that ki ferociously and wildly!
‘I’m betting a game here!’
Showing off his energy as if exploding, he swung his sword at the opponent.
[Leonhard Absolute Blade – Branching]
Boo Woo-wook!
The muscles in the right arm that wielded the sword stretched to the limit. It was for the continuous cutting technique of the Leonhard Absolute Blade.
He is also a master of violent manipulation.
If it goes wrong like this, it will be damaged or even exploded.
Does not matter. If you only have one life, bet it today, not tomorrow.
Doesn’t that make life taste better?
Sseouk, quagga gaga gak! Crisp!
Not only the corpse, but also the core of the parasitic necro slime was destroyed.
However, perhaps because I was overdoing it, my right arm no longer had any strength.
“Oops!”
It must have been too much for the sword, and it soon broke into pieces.
Crazy, the steel sword broke?
It was because the slime’s corrosive power and the attack the corpse wielded were so strong.
‘Oh, how strong is the steel sword? Ugh.’
Stuck out his tongue
[You defeated the enemy!]
[Acquire 3000 Collector Points (CP)!]
[You defeated the enemy!]
[Acquire 3000 Collector Points (CP)!]
Since they killed two, are they two? The necro slime was good.
I cleared the quest and received a reward, but I was too tired. Stumbled.
“Ha, are you okay?! Apostle.”
“Yes, I allowed too many attacks. Did you still win?”
“What a fool! So didn’t I say help?!”
“So I got something.”
Lung sat on a bench near the entrance. I hit the back of my head against the wall and caught my breath.
“At least I couldn’t see it, but I could feel it. I guess this is how I grew up too, right?”
He laughed at the end of his speech. Ishizu looked at her anxiously, then snorted at her. As if you took away all the newness of the world.
“Don’t say such stupid things. Don’t you know that when you’re sick, I don’t feel good either?!”
“Yes?”
“Oh no, that… Make no mistake! It’s because it’s hard to see my apostle getting beaten up. Heh, WorryOr harm Let’s go back soon!”
Ishizu, it’s like this long-awaited devil. I barely woke up watching the goddess tsuntsun.
Ok let’s go back
