Chapter 19: Chapter 19 – Battle Against Barbarians Army [1]
The windows popped up in front of Max one by one. It filled his vision, just like the error messages earlier.
Still, they were all money. His smile widened after he saw the end result of pooling in the mission reward.
Curious about why the chat moved so fast and how many viewers donated, he checked his viewers count again.
[Viewers: 426]
'Holy... It increased so much?! Did someone already post the clip of me slapping Hutch in the forum?'
That was the only reason why he had that many viewers. He decided to focus and looked at the last notification in front of him.
Currently, Max had 2 missions from the viewers.
Mission 1:
[Stream Mission: Kick Huh Ah knight's ass.]
[Reward: 9,000 diamonds.]
Mission 2:
[Stream Mission: Kill Huh Ah knight.] This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com
[Reward: 1,500 diamonds.]
The first mission was out of the viewers' hate, while the second probably had his family killed by the Huh Ah knight.
"I will accept the mission to kick Huh Ah knight's butt, but I don't think I will be able to do the second one, so I will have to refuse it."
While it was a shame he needed to refuse 1,000 diamonds, killing Huh Ah knight at this moment would probably lead the mission to failure.
Max couldn't really afford that as his playtime was limited, and he needed to finish the game before next week's program.
— It can't be helped.
— We should be satisfied with Breeze kicking his ass.
— This is the only time I saw Huh Ah knight outside the tutorial. So I will take a kicking.
Thankfully, they weren't that disappointed with his choice and were understanding.
Max nodded in satisfaction and listened to the knight's explanation for the battle.
Hutch was the one who explained the strategy. The cavalry would be split into two groups, one under Huh Ah knight and the rest under Hutch, to launch a sneak attack from the side.
Max was given a choice, and he immediately chose to stay under Huh Ah knight for a frontal assault. Hutch somehow nodded at him in recognition before turning around and leading around fifty knights on horse away.
"I am glad to have knights with a lot of courage who are willing to protect the Rami Kingdom!" Huh Ah knight exclaimed loudly, unsheathing his sword and raising it. "Follow me, knights! We will stop the barbarians here!"
"Ooooohhh!!"
The knights shouted loudly as they began to march into the plain, where the barbarians' army was spotted.
Max watched the army march forward; their horses kicked the dust into the air.
Yes, he only watched. The reason was simple.
He was left behind because his horse refused to move.
Simple. He became their hate target.
"There is one knight without a horse!"
"Kill him! Use him as a hostage!"
"I will skin him alive!"
Various hostile words and curses were thrown at Max as a group of barbarians rushed toward him.
Even so, Max wasn't afraid. He ignored the shout from the Huh Ah knight and charged fearlessly toward the angry barbarians.
— Blood Blood Blood
— We will see a massacre!
— Do it! Kill them all and kick Huh Ah knight's ass
No one doubted him. Max's skill and control over his movement were top-tier, even though he was still a pretty unknown streamer.
Dealing with 5 barbarians in front of him should be easy. The others were busy with the knights who returned to flank from the side, something he appreciated.
"How many barbarians can I kill?"
Max licked his lips in excitement as he jumped higher than ever. It easily reached 2 and a half meters, and he landed in the middle of the barbarians.
He grinned. Max spun and cut the five barbarians in two using his right foot as a pivot. Red liquid spurted out as their bodies fell with a loud thud, drenching his armor.
Then, he finished his sentence, "Take a guess!"
— There it is!
— It comes!! The three-sixty axe spin!
— Damn it! He's too good!
— Be careful, behind you!
Reading the comment, Max quickly turned around and saw a sword flying toward him at a fast speed and precision.
Clang!
Fortunately, he raised his axes at the perfect time and parried the flying sword.
"Tsk!"
A barbarian clicked his tongue. He was the only one wearing a helmet with two horns among them. And, at first glance, he was easily taller than 2 meters.
"That's the leader, no?" Max asked the chat.
— Yeah.
— That's the mid-boss! Trouser the Thrower!
— Be careful, Breeze. That one is stronger than all barbarians.
— I died five times against him.
"Perfect. He's taller than me."
Instead of getting scared, Max was actually getting excited. This was the first boss he would fight. And this boss was perfect for him to test his limit.
"I will show you guys something new."
