Episode 253. Invasion of Carpathia (9)
I was the only one who didn’t take any action in turn 4.
He moved straight towards Amonga and lowered his sword from the side.
Zero’s first original secret.
Put your heart into it.
Crunch!
“Kwaaak!”
Amonga screamed.
If I had used the skill imitated by [Imitation of God], I could have inflicted greater damage, but as I said before, I was in a situation where I couldn’t show my true skills to Teron and Dyke.
This was the best attack I could make.
“These damn bugs!”
Amonga swung his fist at Teron.
Teron dodged the attack by slightly moving his upper body backwards.
Evasion. A so-called ‘miss!’ judgment is displayed.
‘The specs of Teron and Dyke are quite high.’
Not only do they have decent stats, but they also have a ton of fraud skills just like Reze.
It means that avoiding the attacks of Amonga, who is only at the 7th level, is not a problem for them.
‘The quest text says that after 10 turns, the demons will disappear after appearing in each area. That doesn’t mean that the demons will run away.’
It means that the children in each district succeed in killing the demon.
Of course, the Marvel character that appears at the end is a little different, but the opportunity to catch Marvel character disappears after 10 turns, which is the same.
“Teron, are you okay?”
“Hmm, he seems weaker than he looks. Of course, we can’t let our guard down. Dyke, keep going as you were. This is the B formation.”
“yes!”
The appearance of Teron giving orders and Dyke accepting them right away.
Was it because their appearance was cool? Luna turned her head towards me.
“Zero! Let’s do what we’ve been doing! It’s the Z formation!”
“Huh, what is that?”
“I, I taught you something! The strongest Z-formation! That’s what you do!”
So what is that, you nerd?
C is better than B, and Z, the last alphabet, is the strongest formation. Is that what they were thinking?
Or maybe it was just a show-off to show off how many formations they had built.
Well, it was a cute action typical of Luna, who is a tsundere.
‘Competing over something like that. You’re not some kind of kid… … .’
No, it was true that the child was right. You could tell that just by looking at the way he tried to imitate Theron and Dyke’s actions.
But if you follow those two, Luna’s already short legs will be torn apart like a magpie’s.
‘Because those two have been together since childhood.’
I don’t know the whole story of Teron, but I know that their relationship has been going on for at least 10 years.
Moreover, it is a relationship between a ruler and his subjects with a clear hierarchy.
The two of them had to have good chemistry together.
‘Well, I do admit that those two are a couple that suits each other so well that it makes me jealous.’
Teron is a stereotypically handsome man who seems to come out of a novel, and Dyke is a handsome man with a hint of wildness.
She had an appearance that everyone could not help but love. And.
‘A loyal hunting dog that follows its master.’
It was a sight that made one unable to help but feel jealous.
Unlike them, let’s look at our current state.
A trembling rabbit hiding somewhere unknown, and… … .
“What are you looking at? Hurry up and start Formation Z!”
… … As the owner of a cat who was blinded by envy and talked nonsense, I couldn’t help but envy Teron.
Even the cat that throws a meow punch every day… … no, the cat that bites its owner’s ear.
How great would it be if our cats and pufferfish rabbits showed such aspects?
Even if the cat was like that, there really was no answer for the puffer fish rabbit.
“Haha, the thing I wish the most is for you not to run away… … How depressing.”
“What are you saying? You’re fighting so well. Our Legion has gotten stronger!”
“Isn’t it true that you can’t see it? Doesn’t Miss Luna also not know where Miss Reze is right now?”
“Hey, shouldn’t they be over there? We’ve decided to do Formation Z!”
So what is that?
There was no way to convey that to Reze in the first place, right?
Was it because Luna was imitating him that he didn’t like it? Teron laughed.
“Haa… … The level difference is so big. It’s so petty, I want to die.”
“Oh? That’s good. I was about to kill you.”
Luna was gnashing her teeth. On the other hand, Teron’s mouth was filled with laughter.
“Can you do it?”
“Eww! Zero! Don’t stop me! I’m really going to kill that guy!”
Luna, I wasn’t stopping you from the beginning. We’re not close enough to touch each other right now.
Luna took a stance to rush in, but the two did not fight.
This is because Amonga, who had been ignored since earlier, exploded in anger.
“You cheeky bastards! How dare you ignore me!”
Two new earthworms appeared with Amonga’s shout.
This means that Amon’s turn is over.
[5 turns]
It meant that our turn had begun.
‘It’s a decisive moment.’
Here, you can reduce Amonga’s blood to 50% or less, or not.
Depending on that, future strategies will differ.
‘Worst case scenario… … I’ll pass on the third demon. I’ll get a stat penalty and fail the quest, but conquering Marvel is more important.’
And to lower Amonga’s HP to less than half this turn.
“Mr. Dyke, please attack the demon. You can ignore the earthworms.”
“… … .”
But Dyke’s gaze was directed at the earthworm.
‘I told you to ignore the bugs, but you’re ignoring me.’
Unlike Teron, Dyke seemed to have a low level of favorability towards me.
‘I’ve known about it for a while now… …but it seems to be worse than I thought?’
You can find out why later. For now, the priority is to reduce Amonga’s blood to 50%.
He whispered softly to Teron, who was next to him.
“Haha, that’s too bad.”
“What are you talking about?”
“I was glad that we could form an alliance, even if it was only temporarily… … but I guess it wasn’t Mr. Dyke. No, maybe he’s just ignoring me because I look like a bug.”
“… … ?”
“After cockroaches, now ground bugs… … Does that mean I should go underground and live like a bug? I was thinking of working under Teron after graduation… … I guess I won’t be able to do it.”
Lookism is rampant even in the gaming world!
Tears flowed out of my eyes.
Sob, sob, sob.
Did he realize that he had hurt my innocent heart, or did he like the fact that I said I wanted to be with him after graduation?
Teron opened his eyes wide.
“Dyke! Do as Zero says! It’ll help your grades if you catch bigger ones rather than bugs like that!”
“……All right.”
Dyke turned towards Amonga. He stuck his tongue out at him.
It looks like there’s a vein sticking out of Dyke’s forehead. Am I imagining it?
“I’ll take the lead! Follow me!”
The first secret of the Bürn family.
Empowerment.
Dyke’s third original secret.
Schlussel.
Zero’s first original secret.
Put your heart into it.
A splendid feast of secret arts.
Phew-!
After that, Reze’s gunfire continued so fiercely that Amonga’s body shook. And.
“Eight!”
Even Luna’s normal attacks.
“Kuaaaaaaah-!!”
Black fluid flowed from Amonga’s entire body.
I could tell intuitively that it was a success.
You can’t ‘act’, but you can still ‘move’.
It was when I slowly moved my body to the ground where a tree about half my height stood.
“Kyaaaaah! You insolent human! I’ll show you my true power!”
Amonga raised both his hands towards the sky, and a huge number of rocks began to fall from the sky.
Amonga’s second gimmick. The ‘Stone Maze’ has begun.
“Lord Teron!”
“Dike! Get out! I won’t tolerate any injuries!”
Kookung-!
A huge rock about 4 meters high fell, and Teron and Dyke disappeared.
And it was the same on our side.
“zero!”
“Hehe, Miss Luna. I’ll see you later.”
Luna reached out to me, but couldn’t reach me.
It was a natural thing. Scattering the comrades apart. That was one of the gimmicks of the ‘Stone Maze’.
Kwakwang-! Kwagwagwagwagwang-!
After that, the rocks continued to fall without stopping.
As the falling rocks gradually decreased and the dust began to settle.
[6 turns]
The sixth turn has begun.
Amonga’s gimmick, which was supposed to start on the first turn, is only starting now.
‘It’s later than I thought. We have to hurry.’
There are ten starting locations in the stone maze. You start at one of the closest ones.
and.
‘This place where I am right now is the closest place to Amonga.’
It was a position where I could face Amonga right away this turn.
By the way, this is all of Amonga’s gimmicks.
Huh? Isn’t the gimmick too easy?
‘Of course. It’s only two chapters now… … .’
Rather, the fight that has been going on up until now has been nonsense.
The Devil’s Fragment was a demon that could be defeated after Chapter 3 at the earliest, and Vines was a demon that could be defeated after Chapter 4.
In addition, his life was threatened by Teron, Dyke, Lucia, and Adonis.
It was a truly eventful academy life.
‘What kind of fight have I been fighting until now… … .’
Gulp-.
When I thought back on all the hardships I had endured, tears began to flow naturally.
Anyway, I hope you don’t think Amonga’s gimmick is too cheap.
Because it’s a difficulty level and gimmick that’s just right for Chapter 2. For reference, the other three demons are of a similar level.
“… … .”
I walked towards where Amonga was, lost in thought.
The most important thing now is.
‘Can I kill Amonga in one shot?’
The most powerful skill I can use right now is definitely [Sky Splitting].
It has a shortcoming of a narrow range, but perhaps that is why it boasts a high attack power multiplier compared to other skills.
In addition, it is a skill that is adjusted to A-grade due to [Imitation of God].
You should be able to kill Amonga with half of his HP in one shot.
That is, if you raised your character ‘normally’.
‘Skills imitated by the imitation of God are affected by my stats.’
My stats are a mess because of potential gambling. But can I kill Amonga in one shot?
Because it is a maze, you cannot rely on help from others.
If I can’t kill Amonga in one turn, I have no choice but to move on to the next turn.
This means that if you kill Amonga on the next turn, turn 7, you will start Area 2 on turn 8.
‘Well, I guess I have no choice but to try one way or another.’
I took a deep breath and walked forward. As soon as I turned the corner, I could see it.
“Hmm? How… …you’re here already?”
Amonga’s eyes widened when he noticed me. He seemed quite surprised.
“Haha, I was lucky.”
“No, it’s more correct to say that I was unlucky. It’s a shame.”
“Is that so?”
“He was a person with good energy, so I tried to persuade him after the fight, but of all people… … .”
Amonga smacked his lips as if he was sorry.
Normally, I would have gotten the information through conversation, but that’s not the case now.
It was the moment when preparations were being made for an attack.
Wheeeeeeee-!
“huh?”
“Hmm?”
I heard something flying. And then… … .
Tukwaang-!
“Kuaaaah!”
A large explosion occurred on Amonga’s back, causing flesh and fluid to splatter around.
I could tell. It was flying just now.
‘Manatan!?’
Yes, it was definitely the Manatan that Reze had sent.
Not only did they find us right in the stone maze, they attacked us precisely here, right in front of a 4m high stone wall.
‘Like a cheeky puffer rabbit… … At least now, he’s no less than Dyke!’
Quickly manipulate the information window. Changed one skill from OFF to ON in the skill window.
Hwaruk-!
A pitch-black flame flowed down my sword.
An S-class skill obtained through potential gambling. This was the first appearance of [Pitch Black].
“Wow, how can a human like you have such power… …!”
“Haha, because it’s old water.”
“What, what does that mean!”
Yes, there is something like that.
Before Amonga could continue speaking, he used the skill he had stored in [Imitation of God].
Move your left and right feet forward and backward, adjusting your stride appropriately.
The sword, held tightly in both hands, rose toward the sky.
The fourth secret of the Lucid family.
Splitting the sky.
A black line. It was carved vertically on Amonga’s body.
and.
Tsk-!
Amonga’s body was split in half.
With the sky.
