“Buro~ooo~tsu!!”

“As I thought, as you can see from its build, it’s a Black Orc . ”

“This is not the time to be joking, Respected Master . ”

There is not even a 0 . 1 percent probability for us to get out of this safely,

If even the probability theory is considered, then there is no chance .

“Bururu~o~ooooooo~!!”

“Get down!!”

I shouted, and threw a right fist at the Black Orc . We escaped from the path created and moved to the sidepath .

A groan leaked out accompanied by a Gou and Baki Baki Sound, the swing caused an entire tree trunk to be crushed from impact .

“Che! The location is bad, lets return to the highway, zo . ”

This is like the goblin with the cursed weapon, if you falter for a second, then it goes bad . The Minarisu of now can easily block these attack perfectly and can even withstand it for several blows, but the weapon cannot hold on that long .

Naturally, I would like to eat, but it’s still too dangerous .

The Agility of the Orc is quite low and so is its the brain power . Therefore, dodging is not a problem, the surrounding trees are in the way though .

It’s also the same for the Black Orc, it’s unable to attack us with the trees blocking the path, and even we can’t ignore the trees and run around them . Then, returning to the highway will give us enough space to dodge freely .

“Let’s head to the highway where the group is, they will serve as quite the Decoy, which would be quite helpful . ”

“Buraraaaaaaa!!”

The Black Orc throws a left fist in a diagonal direction from the top down .

Minarisu avoided the fist and immediately countered by attacking the sides .

“At least act like a man~!!”

I take out a throwing knife from my Round Pouch and threw it toward the Black Orcs eyes . But, it only managed to scrape its cheeks since it turned its face to dodge .

“Buru!!”

“Can’t do much more than that scratch, I guess . ”

I had applied Minarisu’s poison to the knife, but that has no effect .

Even then, I still threw more throwing knifes at it, while also using my skill, [Sword of Binding] . The Black Orc cleanly evaded the throwing knives and quickly came over .

Me and Minaris jump out and onto the highway .

“Buruuuruuu…… . ”

As soon as we get out, the Black Orc follows us out of the forest .

“That, that is a Black Orc!!”

“Sh~it! Why are you coming this way!?!?”

Are they adventurers, or Mercenaries? I don’t really care, but I agree with that expression .

On the other hand, the Black Orc seemed to be smiling joyfully, since the number of prey have increased .

I turn to face the Black Orc while I held the [Blade of Adversary] in both hands .

The [Blade of Adversaries] had a similar look to the Tonfa design from my previous world .

The ends of the Tonfa design had bulging sockets where sickle like blades protrude outwards from the weapon . The blade glows with a terrifying gleam and has an extremely sharp edge, the sharp edge looks like it is ready to reap a soul . The blade has a size of about 1/3rd the body while the other 1/3rd lies at the handle .

The parts of the blade are blue and black scattered around, while the blade is vivid red . The blade seemed to be asking for prey .

“Gooyoo!!

A man who faltered in front of the Black Orc was knocked out instantly from its attack .

It seemed that all of the person’s bones were instantly crushed and he fell down motionless . From the looks of his face, he seemed to be an adventurer .

I had to reluctantly give up on the Black Orc drops and run away from there .

I could hear the cry of the Black Orc from the woods, and headed toward the settlements .

“Buhyaaahyaahya!!”

The Black Orc gleefully picked up the dead body of the man and proceeded to pummel the next one, another one, and kept moving around pummeling all the while .

“Ru-Run…… . . fuu, gyaha!!”

Just then, a Thief like man came from the back of the Black Orc, and while strengthening his arms and muscles using Magic Power, he threw a hit toward the right Shoulder of the Black Orc .

“Buru~aaaaa !! ”

“Gyaaa!!””

Of course, when he approached the Black Orc, it threw a right arm as a counter and he was sent flying .

*Baki Baki* all of the Thief’s bones were broken and he fell dead in a state of which even his mother wouldn’t recognize him .

Giving my thanks and now going for my harvest, I grasp the right shank of the Black Orc which was wide open and enter into its blind spot while it was looking at the Thief like man .

“Buru~aaaa~!!”

“Damn, it doesn’t work! The skin is too hard to cut into, what is with this physique!?”

The strike that I had planned for to cut into him deeply, had only remained to be shallow .

Even so, it noticed that I was able to leave a scratch, so the Black Orc took its distance from me .

Black Orc, as the name suggests, is one of the top species of Orcs .

Still, According to the adventurer’s guild, its rank is D+ A minimum party of Five D-Rank adventurers is required to subjugate it, while at least Two C-Rank adventurer’s are required if it was classified as a monster that had priority to be subjugated,

This means it had the capability of reaching B-rank which is quite high, and while it was developing at D-Rank, you can see the strength right here . .

By the way, the strength of leader of the Knights Order is about at C-Rank while there are Five more of them at the same rank . The Knight Order that I had escaped from all had E+ Rank strength .

The Strength of the Orc is slightly larger than a normal Orc due to it’s inherent skill of {Back skin} . An average weapon only causes a slight graze due to its high defense physique .

There is however, a very low magic resistance when using pure magic, if this is used, it falls easily, hence its rank is not very high .

“Damn, by any chance, did I choose the wrong sword?”

We currently have no means of using magical attacks .

Although Minaris has the phantom poison, it’s a magic which produces poison, and the poison on its own does not have any effect .

Also, this Black Orc has high status resistance .

So, there is currently no method to pound the poison into it, and using poison gas is dangerous, as we are out in the open .

From the state of the adventurers and the mercenaries there, I was able to understand that there were no proficient magic users at all in this entire group .

It is easy for me to evade since its agility is quite slow, but since I am unable to deal significant damage, there is a problem .

“Respected Master, what shall we do?”

“It looks quite weak, this is wasteful . ”

I don’t what happened to the Black Orc right now, but it’s really weak .

That figure illuminated by sunlight looked big, but had cuts all over, oi oi . The blood was continuously coming out of its wounds .

“Damn, this is not my place to die! You people, get yourselves together!!”

The man who raised his voice seemed to be the leader of the group . After hearing his voice, the people started running toward the forest away from the direction of the Black Orc .

“Oi, Client, we are running away, yo!!”

“Wa-wait!! There is so many goods in this carriage… . tsu!!”

“This is not the time to be thinking about that!! You’ll die, you fool!!”

That voice seemed to be the voice of the leader of the adventurers . Adventurers provide protection to the merchants who are their client’s through the highway .

“Ok, you people too, run away!! Those swords are fencing swords right~, unless you’re able to use magic, then your not its opponent .

Even though that was a pain to say, but still,  he said it, and started to move towards the highway with his comrades .

That was a job experienced pattern, you get that only after many battles and will be able to analyze the situation quickly which leads you to be able to make a quick choice . He seems to be a veteran adventurer with quite a lot of experience .

“However, this is a regrettable to miss experience . As I thought, if I was able to go all out, then this wouldn’t have been a problem . ”

By looking at the Orcs status board through appraisal, I can see that the HP value that was at 534 had been reduced to 498 .

As I thought, it’s slowly losing HP due to its bleeding status .

“I am thinking of leaving it as it is and running away… . ”

“Have you ever heard that the meat of the Black Orc is very highly sought after in Alchemy and its price easily reaches a gold coin?”

“Respected Master, let’s quickly take down this Orc, the money can be used for many matters throughout our journey . ”

“ . . . . . . . . . . . . It’s alright, we are not wasting money, and we have plenty left of it . ”

“Then, let’s bet, anything other than money is fine . ”

“Well, ab-about that . ”

I decided to keep quiet about since it seemed to be more of a miserly sense than of the economic sense .

“Bururu~oooooo!!”

The Black Orc heard us talking, and was alarmed while it immediately came at us while throwing a fist .

“Minarisu, I ask for your help, the characteristics of the Black Orc is black skin, a gigantic body, and high abnormal status resistance . ”

“Understood . ”

Splitting in two, to the left and right, both of us proceeded to attack its blind spot .

Quickly getting into place below the torso, and attacking it continuously, each hit struck the same place as before .

“Burrarararaaruuuuu!! Buooo!!”

The Black Orc rolled backward trying to dodge the attacks, but Minarisu threw a knife at that moment striking its eye and changing its direction .

The Black Orc tried to deflect the throwing knife in the same way as it did before but,

“As I thought, it’s an Orc after all . ”

“Burururuuuuuuuuu!!”

The second knife thrown had a small attachment by Minarisu which sliced into its eyeball in the same location as the first knife .

The small attachment had poison tied to it which was made from Minarisu . Although it doesn’t deal any damage, it stimulates the nose and eyes causing excessive mucosal secretion and tears which causes blurriness and air deprivation . Since it is not an abnormal status effect, then the Orcs {Abnormal Status Resistance lvl 4} doesn’t activate .

The Black Orc attacked with its right hand while covering its left eye . The Orc swayed and its fist hit the wooden carriage which was instantly crushed, with debris scattering everywhere .

“Even if you try to dodge away~it’s still useless~!!!”

The randomly swinging fist is a problem, but it can be easily avoided . The point would be that it’s holding its left eye while it swings its right arm .

Although I was aiming to lock its movements down by attacking its feet, but it was very helpful to attack its upper body .

“Bururu!?”

I started to attack it using the tips of the {Blade of Adversary} which can easily puncture holes into its body, then I tried to scratch it and continued to puncture it left and right .

Under the black skin, red blood slowly began to appear .

“Minarisu!!”

“Yes~!!”

Minarisu sticks a Butcher knife into its body .

“Burururuuuuuuu!!”

The Black Orc raised a terrible cry and rips out the Butcher knife from its body and screams even louder .

“I was told that the Abnormal Status Resistance was quite high and used my strongest paralysis poison on that knife, but it didn’t last a second . I’m losing confidence in my poison, tsu . ”

“No, it’s not like it’s totally not working at all . ”

The Black Orc has obviously pulled out the knife, but its movements are duller than before .

Seeing that, I casted appraisal, and I could see that there was a status effect paralysis (weak) added to it .

The HP left for the Orc is about 200 .

“Alright, I guess that will do it… . ”

“The roar of the wind spirit echoes, {Green Thunder Flash}!!”

And then, all I could hear was *Baki Baki* and *Koki Koki* with a thud sound .

There was a flashing green storm that blew right through everything in its path .

Burururuuuuuuuu!!!”

“Na~tsu!?”

Of course, it definitely can’t be unscathed by going through such an attack .

The Black Orc, which was devastated by being hit with a magical wind attribute lightning based attack, was unable to withstand it and raised the last cry of the monster .

“This magic…… . . belongs to that woman…… . . ”

“Respected Master, your wife has returned with much emotions, so please look toward here .

That voice, as I thought, my guess was right . Minarisu was already activating her skills with hostility .

“Ouuu!! Are you ok~~~, i came to help~!!”

I turn my head to the voice which was coming from the edge of the road .

Although she came at the perfect time, I was only surprised for a moment, and then immediately returned to my normal look .

“Ah! Could you forgotten my face after you came back to Elumia?”

I desperately held my face from showing my emotions .

Huu, finally, the first one .

I have come back for revenge on everyone who wronged me .

………………… . The sorceress, Yumis Erumja .

Ahhh, there are a lot of things that happened and that should be done .

There is one thing that I determined to make sure to be done though .

Yumis, I will knock you down so bad that you shall feel even hell would have been better, I will make sure that you shall never see the light!
