Orc Disaster

--- Okamura Akihito's POV ---

"Today I would like to hold a meeting regarding the uses of the compendium"

The next morning, we hold a meeting.

All members are present.

A drowsy Hiromi, a half-asleep spider, a stoic Korean idol, a slime, and myself.

"I think we can all agree that there are skills that have side effects. Or maybe if you're not strong enough, it may harm you instead."

"From that, I'd like to make an unspoken rule that everyone here should explain how their skill works before sharing the skill."

"Are there any questions?"

Rimuru raised his hand, "Senseii~"

"Yes, Rimuru-kun." (Akihito)

"I want to try it out~!" (Rimuru)

Responding to his words...

I smiled...

"✨So you open this app, yes that's it... And select a skill... Alright now click yes✨" (Akihito)

There I stood happily, behind Rimuru, guiding his way towards the compendium in the smartphone that he hold.

In the corner of my eyes, I swear I could see Jin Woo with a huge sweatdrop on his head.

Not only him, the other members too.

Later when I asked them about it, they'd answer me:

"We just saw the face of a leech" in perfect sync.

Well, except the spider of course...

.

.

.

The first squad has been decided.

Souei had gone away to inform of an alliance with the lizardman, while Rimuru is currently being treated as a dress-up doll by Shuna, Shion, and the Goblinas.

While I am sitting right there on the sofa with a manga in my hands.

Rimuru sat next to me but I am sure he is communicating with Souei through thought communication, my magic sense could pick up the threads of Magicules.

"What manga is that?" He asked when he pulls out the ribbons that tied his hair before.

"... You're done talking with him?"

Rimuru widened his eyes, "You knew?"

"I learned how to handle Magicules just yesterday."

"Ah, right... Still, knowing that right after learning--- anyway, what kind of manga is that?"

"I thought you knew? Rather, I believe you've never told me anything about... You know, that." I am talking about his reincarnation.

He knows I've never heard of him talking about how he is a "reincarnated" person from Japan.

But here he is mentioning my manga very carefreely.

"You laughed when I said 'I am not a bad slime', wasn't that enough?"

Huh, he picked up my words quite quickly.

Seriously, he looks like a girl in that dress to the point it's uncomfortable...

"Dr. St*ne, I don't think you knew about this series." I opened my inventory to bring the first volume of the manga and gave it to him.

"Dr. St*ne...?" He looks at it weirdly before turning back to me.

"That being said, since I joined the group I can... Uhh... Like, go to another world too, right?" (Rimuru)

"When the right quest appears, yes."

For a few seconds, I swore I could see stars in his eyes.

"Rimuru-sama~ let us try this outfit too~!" Shuna and the girls from the sidelines seem to have brought yet another dress for Rimuru to wear.

"GAHK--"

Well, there's still a week before the Orc Subjugation starts.

"Well good luck, Rimuru~"

"Wai- oi! Akihito!?"

[A week later]

*Boom*

Black flames exploded in the shape of a huge sphere.

The Orcs marches with an army, battling the lizardman and goblins.

While reinforcement arrived just a second later when they were about to get defeated.

*Slash*

An orc was slashed in half by a sword illuminated with orange light.

That was me, these exps are very delicious.

Max stats in SAO is currently 120 each, meaning once I passed that, I won't be able to grow anymore. That is why I need skills.

And I am telling you...

*Slash*

There are a lot of chances for me to do that.

"Ha!" Hiromi took her stance in the corner of my eyes, her katana cuts waves of orcs cleanly whilst the spider girl beside her had poisoned and immobilized many orcs for her.

They seem to have made a perfect team... While here I am slashing through orcs with the idol.

Magic senses gave me a whole view of the battlefield to the point I don't think I'd want to use my eyes anymore.

A few hours later...

"YOU-! How dare you ruin the great Lord Gelmud's plans?!" The rat finally came out.

Rimuru gave him a good beating before he self destruct by his own order towards his subordinate, the orc lord.

The Orc lord fulfilled his master's wish to awaken as the demon lord by having a feast on him.

His Magicules increased vastly in a terrifying speed, and with his newly awaken demon lord seed, he announced, "I am the Orc Disaster! I am the one who will devour all in this world! My name is Geld... Geld the demon lord!"

The humanoid pig stated thus.

Well, "Wanna bet how much exps you'll get from that?" I went towards Jin Woo.

He replied with, "I dunno, maybe... enough to raise my level ten times?"

"Heh, guess we'll see."

.

.

.

*Zing*

We're both players, we hunt monsters and leveled up with a system.

The only difference is that I used a sword, while he used a dagger.

Our blades illuminated the battlefield with sword skills and we charges into the Orc who proclaimed to be a demon lord.

*Slash*

A terrifying speed of regeneration...

*Slash*

A vast amount of Magicules...

You might think that's impressive.

But for a newborn demon lord like him who fought with only brute skills...

"GAAAAAH--!!!"

Then he is just a mindless pest.

Pair of the Orc demon lord's arms has been sliced cleanly as it wiggles back into place, trying to desperately regenerate.

Occasionally the pig would shoot out pink energies of Magicules, to which both Jin Woo and I deflected them with sword skills.

Yes, Jin Woo bought 『Horizontal Arc』 from my compendium the moment I put it up for sale.

Both Jin Woo nor I ever had a fixed fighting form in the first place.

We wasted so many movements and unleashes a huge amount of power.

But we both know how to judge one's strength clearly.

That is why we had so much confidence in our strength whenever we wanted to act.

As a result...

"GRAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!"

We were able to stand up against this newborn demon lord.

I lost count of how many times we already beheaded this guy already.

The white-haired Kijin Hakurou-san has lived off his head once, but both I and the hunter had already amputated this guy many times to the point it was annoying.

Well, that's when Rimuru came in.

*Burn*

Firstly, his regeneration was hindered by Rimuru's black flames.

But that's not all.

Rimuru went ahead and charge at the pig.

The slime and the orc clashed, Leaving both me and Jin-woo hanging...

It turns into a devouring contest between the slime and Orc.

Which ultimately, led to the slime's triumph.

.

.

"So in the end Rimuru stole our kill huh?" (Akihito)

"This feeling is very uncomfortable..." (Jin Woo)

Ah? Are we sulking?

No no, we're not sulking.

"Come on now, stop sulking you two" (Hiromi)

As I said, we're not sulking.
