Chapter 811 Defense [II]



Oni.

A monster that is only present in Kamikaze Continent and does not exist anywhere else. They are one of the monsters that are considered one of the main problems of the populace. If compared to the other monsters on other continents, they are like goblins. No one knows how many of them are currently living in the mountains. People keep killing them and yet they keep appearing like they just appeared out of nowhere. They are one of the banes of the people's businesses, whether they are for farming or just delivering different goods from city to city, they will appear and raid your resources, leaving you with almost nothing much but just a few scraps of broken goods and dead workers.

Now, they are in front of us, ready to kill and destroy whatever stuff we are still doing.

Knowing how troublesome they are and how resilient they are in battles, it's better to fight them before they even get close.

"Your Majesty! I will intercept them first before they get near. I needed to kill them before they get near us!"

Before Queen Tori can say anything, my wings have already opened and I fly toward the direction of the group of Oni approaching us with metal spike clubs in their hands.

While I am still up in the air, I started firing off multiple barrages of different spells in their direction like [Fireball] and [Ice Rain]. These guys didn't like it when something is attacking them and they will be engaging on that enemy regardless of how strong they are.

From the looks of it, this group of Oni is not intelligent Onis that can communicate and speak the human language. They are more of a commonplace Oni found in different areas of the Kamikaze Continent. A common Oni.

They started shouting in some kind of Oni language that no one can understand except them and angrily throws rocks in my direction as I was about to land.

"Stop saying garbage things. No one will care."

I landed on one of the Oni's faces and stomped curb his face before stabbing his head with the Versatile Weapon's Sword form, penetrating straight to his skull and brain and killing him instantly before I jump off to escape the attack of the incoming Oni who just smack off the head of the Oni I just stab my sword with.

The group started pointing at me and saying gibberish stuff before attacking at me with great vigor and anger. They are not here for a joke. But since they are weak, they are still technically a joke for my Versatile Weapon that can easily destroy them without much problem.

As for the Versatile Weapon's form, I wanted to have fun while fighting. They are big-bodied monsters akin to big and burly men that I barely have any chances to fight against. Knowing how rare it is for me to have that kind of interaction, I realized it would be a good idea to deal with them using my fist and what is cool is that the Gauntlet is much better use.

The Onis one by one tried to club him with their spiked clubs but I immediately swoop in, disarm them, and immediately release a volley of punches at them. They had hard bodies, it was like I am punching concrete while doing so but because repeated punching can even cause a brick to break, it also applies to the Onis.

A volley of punches to the abdomen and in the chest causes the nearest attacking Oni to puke blood and kneel in pain. An uppercut that I followed up from the volley of attacks finishes off the Oni, dislocating his lower jaw and crushing his upper jaw up to his skull, killing the Oni instantly.

I didn't stop there and continued my attacks on the second Oni. The Onis present seems to realize that if they didn't attack me while I am still attacking they will die in the end, so while one of them is being attacked, they should take advantage of it and attack as well.

But that shouldn't be enough to deal with me. One Oni tried to swing his club at me currently releasing a volley of punches to another Oni but I immediately noticed it and dodges the strike, allowing the swing to hit the Oni who received the beating. Since Onis are known for their strength, one swing is not a joke and even their kind is not safe from it. Plus, with the giant metal spiked club being used, this was enough to break lots of the organs of the Oni I just beat up. If my attacks have shaken a lot of his flesh and the organs ready to rapture, the swing just now sealed the deal, causing massive damage and pain to the poor guy.

"Oy, you pricks should aim your swings wisely. You are all doing some friendly fire instead," I grinned as I stand at the top of the dead Oni.

The remaining Onis angrily started grumbling some unintelligible words.

"Yeah, yeah. If you guys are just all talk and have nothing to show, just go ahead and die! That will solve things much faster!"

I have had enough of dealing with the Onis using my fists. Seeing how they are still pretty much willing to fight, I have to finish this as fast as I can. Jumping off from where I stood, I changed my weapon into a Hook and Chain and throw the large hook into the unsuspecting Oni who didn't catch up to my trick.

Before the Oni can do anything, the hook latch into the neck. I retracted the chain connecting to the hook, allowing me to get close in seconds to the Oni and changed the Hook and Chain in quick succession into a dagger and immediately stab the Oni's jugular with the Versatile Weapon's Dagger form. I continuously stabbed that part multiple times before I stopped and killed the f*cker.

The next Oni attacked but I used that as a chance to get close and go under the big body of the Oni. I then sliced the neck of the Oni before stabbing it in the jugular. Once the blade is deep within, I immediately run it down to the abdomen and open up a huge hole in Oni's body, causing blood to flow out. I didn't stop there and changed the weapon form into a sword and spill the guts of the Oni out.

The oni tried to resist but it doesn't matter if your guts are already spilling out. You might not die immediately but you will still die sooner or later.

I then realized I wiped out all of the Oni that are present on the battlefield. I obliterated them before they can reach their destination and before they can build up their powers and do something annoying and ridiculous.

In the end, they drop a few stuff here and there. It's not bad, but it's not great either, pretty average stuff. Seeing no more Onis nearby that are planning an attack on us, I returned to my previous post by killing a few more monsters along the way. They are not that strong but they aren't that weak either. Still, they have been pretty much, taken care of by the time I arrived. And that, it seems the second wave of monsters has been destroyed.

"Bladeheart, next time, you should say something to me in advance about whether you are going to rush there and attack enemies by yourself. Who knows what kind of unexpected things might happen? We shouldn't have let our guard down just like that," Queen Tori gave me a talking for suddenly storming off.

"Sorry about that. I read in books that Onis are one heck of a monster and if possible, kill them first before they can do anything as they are prone to do berserk or any kind of wild stuff that can easily destroy defenses without effort."

"Eh? Is that so? Well, that was my first encounter with an Oni and I never got any occasion I have used my expertise in battle to fight them since you pretty much took care of all of them so perhaps next time, you should spare some for me?"

"Nah, if I did, we might risk stopping Queen Tanya's job right now. Speaking of her job, is she almost done?" I looked at Queen Tanya and she is still there, doing her [Mind Extraction] job to the Jorogumo who is now showing signs of a struggle inside the ice.

"I don't think so, Bladeheart. I can tell the progress has yet to give much but we can still continue to defend this place. I can tell that the third wave is almost here as well. Are you ready though?" Queen Tori asked.

"I am always ready in battles, Your Majesty. Don't underestimate me."

"Then, you will be fine. It seems the third wave is now almost here. Time to keep the battle strong, yeah? Stay sharp and fight till the end!"
