CH 6

Gargoyles attacked me from all directions at the same time. Even if you defeat one of them, you will always be attacked by the other, which is the worst possible formation for me.

“Ooooh!”

I’m not going to die….!

I picked up the spears of the guards dying nearby and threw them at the approaching gargoyles with my skill, “Throwing Sprear”. Then, I threw them at the gargoyles coming from other directions, with my “Midare Thrust” skill. And they came at me with their own spears.

–Damn you! You’re nearly dead!

–For the sake of the Demon Lord, you should have just stayed dead!

“Shut up! I don’t care what you want! I don’t want to die!”

I struggled and struggled and struggled, and I fought like a sack of dirt. I swung my spear, kicked the gargoyles, and rolled around on the floor miserably to dodge their attacks.

“Ugh!”

–Ggagh!

Seeing an opening, he pierced and killed another gargoyle.

– – Level up, lvl 21 to 22. Trident” –  “Unleash a wide range of thrusts at once.

Uses a new skill. Trident, the tip of the spear, splits into three wide branches and stabs three gargoyles at the same time.

The skill level of “Apprentice Spear User” is increased to LvMax, and the skill changes from “Apprentice Spear User” to “Master of the Spear” -> “Master of the Spear”. The attack power using a spear is greatly increased.

He knocks down flying gargoyles, and knocks down gargoyles coming from the side on top of them. Then, collectively, hit the gargoyles with a “Midare Thrust”. Apparently, the power has increased. The two gargoyles are killed in one fell swoop.

The skill level of “Strike Down” is increased to LvMax, and the skill is changed from “Strike Down” to “Spear Warding”. Spear Warding”. Repels the opponent’s attack and counterattacks. When you counterattack, you are immune to the opponent’s counterattack.

Gargoyles pincer attack from both sides. The attack is repelled by the “Spear’s Warding”. When I killed one of them, the other one attacked me, but it didn’t hit me, and went through the air.

– – Level up, Lv 22 to 23, skill level of ‘Shippu-tsuki’ increased. Lv MAX, skill changed from ‘Shippu-tsuki’ to ‘Vortex’, skill level increased from Lv 22 to 23. – A lightning-attributed, lightning-fast thrust that penetrates an opponent’s defenses.

–Gah, gah, gah! Hang on, all at once! Match the timing! He can’t dodge a simultaneous attack!

“Ha, hah! ……”

Skill “Midare Thrust”. The gargoyles are frightened.

“Good!”

Even so, some of them attacked me and I got splattered with blood. But I don’t care!

I use my new skill, “Vortex, Vortex, Vortex!”

–Gawd!

The skill level of “Midare Thrust” increased to LvMax, and the skill changed from “Midare Thrust” to “May Rain Thrust”. The attacker’s defense is slightly lowered.

The gargoyles make a U-turn and charge again. The accumulated damage makes my knees tremble —-No, I can’t go down yet! I stepped on it with all the strength I could muster in my shaking knees.

“…… ‘May rain thrust’!”

–Ggagh!

– – “Level up, Lv 23-24

…… All the gargoyles that couldn’t be killed by the previous attack were defeated by the new skill, which has increased both power and number. How many monsters …… are left?

“Gustav! Gustav!”

I hear the king’s voice. Don’t tell me the princess has been captured by gargoyles again……? Then I must help her.

“Gustav, there are no more monsters! You killed them all!”

“……?”

Killed? All of them? I’m sure there were more than 10 of them, but did I kill all of them ……?

—Thud.

I didn’t even think about sitting down, but my body fell to the ground on its own. If I don’t stand up,…… why? My body won’t listen to me, okay?

“You’re seriously hurt! Who’s there! Someone call for help! I need a recovery magician! Gustav is a hero! The hero who protected Leia, the princess of this land, must not be allowed to die!”

The king’s voice is heard in the distance. It gets darker and darker in front of my eyes. …… Oh, am I going to die?

“My Lord Gustav, my Lord Gustav! You must not die. Stay strong!”

Ah, I hear Princess Leia’s voice. And what’s that …… something warm. Something gently wrapped my palm, and then my head was lifted up and placed on a soft pillow. Oh, it’s so comfortable. And it smells so good.

“Gustav! Gustav!”

I think I’m seeing Princess Leia’s face right in front of me. But still, I can’t take it anymore. I’m too sleepy. …… I was up all night yesterday.

And my consciousness melted away into total darkness.
