CH 69

Don’t just go after women’s asses!

The first thing I’m going to do is kill the ［Goblin Magician］. I don’t want them to use defensive magic. We have to take them out before Rosa activates her magic.

I concentrated all the magical power and released the magic.

『Energy Javelin』

3 large lumps of energy, shaped like spears, appeared.

As I release them, they pierce the goblins in my path, but their power does not diminish, and they finish off the ［Goblin Magician］’s body. The ［Goblin Magicians］ must have been annihilated.

As I was thinking about how to …… get in close combat, more than a dozen arrows came toward me. The ［Goblin Archer］ who climbed the tree took aim at me.

The reason they didn’t go for Rosa is probably because they are still thinking of using her as a nursery. Because the healthier the mother, the better!

After using a magic barrier to block the incoming arrows, I tried to use magic to counterattack, but,

「Gugga gugga guggaaaa!」

It was interrupted by the approach of the ［Goblin Berserker］, which is 2 times larger than usual.

It wielded long, thick iron rods in both hands. I tried to fight him back with my sword, but the arrows were fired again and I stopped moving.

The 2 iron rods were coming to crush my head.

I had no choice but to meet them head-on with my sword.

I felt a strong impact from my hand to my brain, and pain shot through my entire body.

It must be a special kind of ［Goblin Berserker］, and it can’t be easily pushed back.

While we both stopped moving, an arrow was fired from a tree and a ［Goblin Hero］ with his henchmen was about to pass by me. His target was Rosa. I know you’re planning to go get her directly, but I won’t let you!

「I’m not going to let that happen!」

Using my magic power as fuel to temporarily strengthen my physical abilities, I flicked off the iron rod that was catching me and kicked the ［Goblin Berserker］ in front of me. I cut off all the arrows that were about to hit me and slashed at the ［Goblin Hero］.

「You can’t just aim at a woman’s ass!」

The ［Goblin Hero］ catches me with his big sword and we push each other with our swords. We were evenly matched in strength. It was a close match, but when I saw the goblin coming at me from the side, I pulled back to get some distance.

Behind me, I heard the yells of an angry ［Goblin Berserker］. I thought I had stuck around for a while, but apparently they were tougher than I had imagined.

In front of me were the ［Goblin Hero］ and 3 of his cronies, the ［Goblin Knights］. I was trapped in front of and behind them.

I had hoped to retire as an adventurer and live out my days in Yang, enjoying the time at leisure, but how did this happen?

If only I hadn’t come out of the dungeon, I wouldn’t have met the Nobleman, and I wouldn’t have met Rosa again.

I’m getting more and more angry as I realize that I’ve gotten myself into a lot of trouble.

I guess I’ll just have to let my gloom out for a bit.

I use a large amount of magic power to further improve my physical abilities that have been already enhanced by magic. I had a bad headache from overtaxing my body, but I ignored it and resumed the fight.

I take on the 4 goblins in front of me at once. I fired a series of 『Energy Bolts』 at the ［Goblin Heroes］ to stop them from moving, while dodging the ［Goblin Knight’s］ swords coming from 3 directions and slicing through their shields.

I also grabbed the ［Goblin Knight］, leaped and threw it at the ［Goblin Berserker］ who was swinging an iron bar down from above my head.

「Gugga!!!?」

The poor ［Goblin Knight］ was crushed instead of me.

I’ve been holding back a lot lately, so it’s fun to be able to fight without worrying about anything.

Yes, come on, more!

Keep fighting until the “Flame of Life” is extinguished!

This moment of forgetting everything and fighting is probably the most free time I have.

There is no need to care about the Nobles, no need to worry about helping or not helping. All I have to do is crush the goblin in front of me!

I killed all the cronies that were nearby. All that’s left is the ［Goblin Berserker］ and the ［Goblin Hero］. The other goblins are just watching from a distance, probably not participating because they don’t want to interfere with the bosses’ fight.

I was able to inflict a light wound, but it was one step short of a mortal wound.

The blade of the sword I’m holding is getting tattered, and even with the dual protection of enchantment magic and magical power, I was almost at my limit.

「Lars!」

It was at such a time that I heard Rosa’s voice.

I know what she wants to tell me. I immediately started to act.

『Ice Bind』

A cord of ice stretched out from the ground and entangled the 2 goblins that were fighting.

I jumped and ran away in the small gap, and stood behind Rosa.

「I’ll take care of it.」

「Leave it to me!」

I answered with a natural smile, she activates her magic by putting the kneaded magical power that she has, into words.

『Diamond Dust』

As soon as the magic was activated, the world in front of me turned into a silvery white.
