Chapter 178 - Reinforcement

"What did you say? You're trash!" The hero rose from the ground and ran forward, swinging his treasured sword.

Albert looked at the sword and struck it as hard as he could.

It turned out the moment the bat and the sword clashed, the former overpowered it and directed it to the ground.

Cling.

The clicking sound between the sword and a stone echoed in their ears as Albert pushed it even deeper to make the sword stuck.

"What? Impossible." The hero shouted while gritting his teeth. "I'm the hero. I'm supposed to be the winner. That's right. This must be the struggle until my plot armor comes!"

When Albert heard all that, his mind couldn't help but snarl. 'What the fuck, dude? Plot armor? Struggle? Are you living in a movie right now? This is a real world for God's sake.'

Albert never expected that despite his age which looked like he was younger three to four years from him, the hero would still look like a kindergarten.

'He must be living a sheltered life.' Albert thought before kicking the hero on the stomach.

Bam.

The hero flew away and landed on his butt. However, his sword seemed to follow him because he still gripped it. It also showed the sword's sharpness as it could easily cut the stone and soil on the ground.

'With that kind of sharpness, I should stop the sword with my wooden bat instead of a skill. Only something unbreakable can make me feel safe.' Albert immediately leaped forward and waved his bat.

Bonk Crusher.

Seeing the incoming bat from above made the hero's heart skip a beat. He never wanted to experience pain, so he hurriedly raised his sword to block the bat.

Bam!

Their clash produced a small shock wave, but more importantly, a small crater appeared on the ground, signifying the strength behind that swing.

Of course, as someone that sat on the ground, the hero felt as if the bones in his butt cracked.

"Aaaahhhh!" The hero screamed in pain. There were even tears coming out of his eyes.

"What are you doing?"

"We need to help the hero from that brute."

"That's right. Let's go."

"Stop these two first."

The women started shouting as they wanted to stop Albert, but Bepe and Shella stepped up their game and overwhelmed them.

Albert glanced at the women with a weird gaze.

'For real? The hero and the great sage came from Earth, right? What do these women see in the hero? In fact, I think the great sage is more stable and better.' Albert tilted his head in confusion.

He was unaware that the hero was more aggressive and acted like the prince on a white horse, charming these inexperienced girls. On the other hand, the great sage acted cold and aloof because he was a careful and logical person. He already knew these women were sent by nobles and the king to tie them down to the kingdom, and that wasn't what he liked.

That was why the great sage was alone while the women flocked the hero.

Albert let out a long sigh while shaking his head in disappointment. He kicked the hero again because he was pissed.

However, that action resulted in something worse.

Instead of the hero, the one that came to protect him made a big move.

A huge green colored wind flew into the sky and burst out, creating a shock wave that shook the battlefield. The Magic Power also flashed for a second in the sky as if it was trying to gain their attention.

As soon as Raisa saw it, she shouted in panic. "Not good. He's trying to call reinforcement here. There might be someone at my level coming here soon! Sir, you need to defeat him as soon as possible!"

"Sir?!" Marco widened his eyes, never expecting to hear that word from Raisa. It was clear that Albert's status was either respected or above her. Either way, it showed the importance of Albert.

Albert nodded to her and waved his hand as a black-colored magic circle appeared from the ground. A few tentacles emerged with their heads being a bonk bat.

The tentacles flew toward the hero and wrapped his body around, and the bonk bat at the tip acted as a weight, anchoring the hero to the ground.

Obviously, the hero struggled by slashing these numerous tentacles but to no avail. Albert also came to him and struck him so that the tentacles could capture him.

This was the difference in power between level 120 and level 172. These 52 levels were huge.

"What is this? I can't even fight him?!" The hero gritted his teeth and struggled to capture him.

However, another magic circle soon appeared beneath the hero's feet, illuminating the tentacles as if burning them.

The tentacles soon vanished into thin air.

"!!!" Albert widened his eyes in shock, never expecting this to happen. After all, there should be no one that could do something at this level.

But the answer soon came.

"Not good!" Raisa immediately leaped back to Albert's position and pointed her sword to the empty space as an old man appeared out of nowhere. She instantly recognized him and gritted her teeth. "Sage of the Pentagon, Rumberg."

Suddenly, another Magic Circle appeared and formed a thin layer of a white screen that isolated the hero and his party.

"As expected, it's too early for the hero to go here… To think my Gin should suffer because of it." Rumberg sighed in disappointment. "This is your idea, Marco. Why should Gin follow the hero when their status is basically the same?"

Marco gritted his teeth while cursing him inwardly, 'Do you think I want to do that as well? The hero suddenly approached the king and did all this… I couldn't even reject it since the order came from the king.'

Of course, he couldn't show the internal conflict or the Lust Kingdom would use it to their advantage.

Albert looked at this old man while furrowing his eyebrows.

Name: Rumberg Glory

Race: Human

Level: 299

Gender: Male

Jail Time: 2 hours

"Hahaha! Did you see this? I am destined to be a great person. Even in the most dangerous situation, plot armor will come! After all, I'm the hero!" The hero shouted, mocking Albert.

His words put Rumberg and Marco in shame as they didn't even know what plot armor meant. They only thought it was the word from the hero's world.

Albert fell silent for a while before asking Raisa, "This might be a hard request for you, but can you handle them for five minutes?"

"But there's a barrier… Looking at the energy, it should be a 7-Star spell. Even my subordinates will have a hard time breaking it." Raisa narrowed his eyes.

"I have my way. It's just… I'm sure they're going to stop me. So, can you occupy them for five minutes?"

When they were talking, the hero interrupted them again. "Haha? You can destroy a 7-Star spell? Dream on!"

Raisa looked at Marco and Rumberg, knowing they were waiting for their chance to rescue the hero party.

Since Lilith trusted her to protect Albert, she agreed with Albert's request. "I understand. Five minutes should be easy."

The moment she said those words, her armor and helmet broke apart, revealing Raisa's beautiful appearance.

Clang.

Clang.

Clang.

The armor clattered as they fell down, but no one cared about it because Raisa was too breathtaking.

They sucked a cold breath. Behind the armor were just a simple sleeveless shirt and a red mini skirt. But with her body, this simple clothing could make men wonder.

Her sharp eyes and pointed ears gave an aura of cool beauty, and her natural charm incited a dirty thought in men's minds. If they fought in this state, it was clear they would have a hard time hiding their boner and perverted thoughts. This was why the succubus was extremely dangerous in a war.

In that instant, he could see the jail time for all the people in this area increased to 72+ hours.

It was all the thing he needed to break the barrier.

Seeing Albert raising his bat, Rumberg and Marco immediately cut their thighs, making it bleed. The pain should be enough to fight against Raisa.

"Kh!" Both of them gritted their teeth and saw Raisa flying toward them. She even created a huge tornado that blew them away.

"Five minutes. I'll do my best to make sure they won't come here. Please destroy the barrier first!" Raisa shouted while facing these two strong opponents.

However, Albert chuckled and lightly hit the barrier with his bonk bat.

Clang!

A shattering glass sound echoed in their ears as Raisa, Rumberg, and Marco turned their heads to see what happened. They all had dumbfounded expressions on their faces. Raisa was unaware that this was the reason why Albert could withstand the attack of the slime kings.

Clang!

Clang!

Clang!

A series of barrier-breaking occurred as Bepe, Shella, and Jessie hit the barrier. They didn't even use their power to destroy the barrier.

"Eh?!" Raisa dropped her jaw to the ground while Rumberg and Marco's faces became pale.

On the contrary, Albert had a nonchalant smile as he said, "Ah. Breaking this is easy.. I want those five minutes because I want to beat the crap out of him."
