Chapter 4 - Bonk Hero

[Horny Targets: 4]

[Bonk Bat is amplified.]

Albert took a deep breath as his expression became serious. He set his eyes on the two people that were about to do the deeds and clenched his bat as tight as possible.

The moment Albert came out from behind the tree, he rushed toward the two with his fastest speed. He ran like there's no tomorrow, crushing the dried leaves and brushing all the bushes.

The sound they produced alerted the two Onis as they turned their heads at the same time.

Unfortunately for them, they didn't have the chance to react. Even if they could, they needed their swords that were currently lying on the ground.

Without hesitation, Albert hit the guy on his upper arm quite hard. He thought the guy's arm would feel numb for a while if he did this.

Little did he know, Albert had underestimated the power of his Bonk Bat.

The moment his Bonk Bat touched him, a loud sound echoed as the guy was thrown back as if he was hit by a bull. He landed on his butt near their swords while clutching his arm.

"Argh!"

[Bonk Complete.]

[EXP+4]

[First Bonk has succeeded.]

[Skill—Bonk Smasher is acquired.]

Skill: Bonk Smasher

Effect: User can deliver a more powerful bonk.

'What?!' Albert shouted inwardly, not expecting his strength was this powerful. Unfortunately, he had no time to react to the blue screen that appeared afterward as there were still three horny targets.

Since that attack was quite powerful, he toned down his next attack a little bit by pointing the bat at the girl's chest. He pushed her back with less power than the guy, but what happened next shocked him.

The girl was also blown away like she was hit by a truck with her back colliding with the tree. She then fell on four while gritting her teeth.

"Aaahhh—!" The girl screamed in pain.

[Bonk Complete.]

[EXP+3]

'How could such a light push be that strong?' Albert complained and stopped when he saw the two guys hiding in the bushes make their appearances.

Name: No Name

Race: Goblin

Level: 1

Gender: Male

Albert saw their information which was the same and spun his body to intercept them.

The guy, who was the closest to their weapons, grabbed his sword. When he saw the goblins, the guy raised his eyebrows in shock as he said inwardly, 'Did he blow me away next to the sword because he knew the goblins were about to attack us? But the pain—'

He suddenly felt the pain subsided in an instant as if nothing had hit him earlier.

Before he could rise from the ground, Albert ran toward the goblin with his bat on the side.

[Now use your new skill, Bonk Smasher!]

[Swing your bat with all your might and say Bonk Smasher!]

Albert was bewildered by the instruction, but he followed the instruction and waved his bat to the goblin's head with all his strength.

"Bonk Smasher!"

Albert aimed at the head because the goblin raised the club with a slightly shorter reach than his bat. He didn't want to get hit by this, so he tried to block this bat, albeit neither the goblin nor Albert knew the true power of the Bonk Bat.

The moment Albert struck the goblin's club, a loud sound shook the area.

Bam.

The bat snapped the club into two and made its way toward the goblin's head.

"Kiki?" The goblin panicked for a second before his head was smashed by the Bonk Bat., crushing his nose and made his face indent inward.

[Bonk Complete.]

[EXP+3]

[Killed a Goblin]

[EXP+4]

Albert wasn't unaware that he had killed a goblin yet as he was too focused on the other goblin.

When the goblin with the knife turned around and plunged his knife, trying to stab him, Albert used his long bat to hit the goblin in the head.

As he expected, without the Bonk Smasher, the goblin was blown away until it eventually rolled on the ground and screamed in pain.

"Kiki—!"

[Bonk Complete.]

[EXP+3]

When he saw the notification and the Onis started rising from the ground, Albert immediately spun his body and ran as fast as possible, escaping from this place.

"Wait!" The guy shouted while stabbing the goblin with his sword. There was no trace of anger in his face as he considered Albert his savior.

"Did that guy escape?!" The female oni grabbed the sword and regrouped with the guy while looking around, finding no one except for both of them and two corpses. "I am mad! He suddenly attacked us and I'm still—"

The guy stopped her from rambling and said, "No. That guy was our savior."

He pointed at the goblin whose head was smashed. "Look at that! He surely had the power to crush our head if he wanted, but he didn't. He used that bat to stop us and warn us about the incoming goblins.

"However, because the goblins came out sooner than he expected, he chose to kill one of them and knock the other out. If you check your body again, you won't feel any pain."

"Eh?" The girl stopped and flinched as she instinctively touched her chest. She realized the pain had disappeared as if she wasn't hit to begin with. Though, there was still some tingling sensation on her back because the tree was different from the Bonk Bat.

"Either way, he saved us because I couldn't control myself and tried to do it here." He turned to the girl. "I want to apologize because my decision almost killed both of us. No, the goblins might do something more to you, so… I'm sorry."

The girl took a deep breath and sighed. "I guess it was our fault. I also needed to be firm when stopping you. Rather than that, let's go back. This place may get dangerous soon."

"That's right."

…

Meanwhile, Albert had run for another three hundred feet, trying to get as far as possible from them.

After that, he hid behind a tree and dropped on his butt. While panting, he asked, "What was that? I just hit them lightly and they were blown away!"

[Don't underestimate the power of Bonk.]
