Dilip vs Orc

Manu examined the Orc's lifeless body and noticed that arrows had pierced both its eyes. Only one person was capable of shooting two arrows so quickly and with such precision.

Then his gaze was drawn to a giant arrow that had penetrated the Orc's forehead; Rishi had shot it, but what surprised him the most was a spear that had penetrated the Orc's heart; there were only two spearmen in the guild; one was he, and the other was Dilip.

He had no idea Dilip was such a skilled spearman; he had always assumed Dilip was someone who boasted about himself shamelessly.

"Are you okay?" Ajit inquired as he approached Manu.

"I'm fine," Manu replied with a smile.

"Are you a moron? Don't you have any sense?" scolded Dev.

"Dev, chill bro, He lacks experience. This was his first time exploring a dungeon," Ajit explained.

"It could have also been his last time. How would I have answered his parents if something bad had happened to him?" Dev said.

"I'm sorry; I won't repeat this mistake again," Manu apologized when he saw how worried all the guild members were because of him.

"Why are you exaggerating the situation, Dev? All of us were there to help him in that situation," Dilip said.

"Dilip is correct, Dev; there is no need to dwell on what has already occurred," Rishi said.

"I think you'll all remember what happens if you're a little careless now. Low-level orcs lack active skills, but their passive abilities, such as thick skin and regeneration, make them even more challenging. Never stop attacking an orc until you are sure it has been killed. When you are unsure about their condition, I recommend attacking them again." he added.

"Let's go; let's find more orcs for practice," Ajit suggested.

Rishi and his guild members took turns fighting an orc of their level. They all agreed to fight without their contract beast, following Manu's lead.

As they fought more and more, it became more difficult to find new targets. They were about to give up when they noticed a massive orc devouring a wild magic beast.

Rishi took a look at the Orc, who was the tallest he'd ever seen.

"Who will face him?" asked Lalit.

They all started pointing at each other, and just as Rishi was about to step up because no one wanted to fight, he heard Dilip.

"You all bring shame to my name; you can't even fight a stupid beast. I was thinking of directly slaughtering them all in one go, but now I think I'll have to take matters into my own hands due to my incompetent guild members," he said as he began walking towards the orc barehanded.

Dilip even ignored Lalit's attempts to stop him when he tried to stop him.

"Leave him alone; he won't listen to anyone now that he's decided to intervene," Dev said.

"Isn't it risky? This one appears to be much stronger than any other Orc we've encountered so far," Manu noted. Jay, too, looked at them with a puzzled expression.

"Believe him; he may be irritating and boastful all the time, but that's his personality. Always remember this lesson: never associate someone's personality with his prowess; I have seen many people with the worst personalities, but they are among the best when it comes to talent and ability," Dev replied.

"Look carefully; you may learn today that you should never judge a book by its cover," Ajit observed.

They all turned to look at Dilip, who had approached Orc but had yet to draw his weapon, which surprised them.

"How disgusting!" Dilip exclaimed as he looked at the Orc. "I despise these barbaric species; if it were up to me, I would have wiped them out. Fighting him with weapons would not even be a proper warm-up."

The Orc noticed a human with a disgusted expression staring at him. He didn't understand what the weakling was saying, but he could tell by his expression and body language that he was being insulted. "Chiii," it roared at the foolish human. He was one of the strongest fighters in his village, and no one ever looked down on him until today when a punny human mocked him.

"This universe is full of beautiful lifeforms, but how unlucky are you to have been born as an ugly orc? Today, I have come to put an end to the suffering of you and the other Orcs in your village," Dilip explained. "May your soul rest in peace, and you reincarnate into a better being," he said with pity.

"What is he up to? He sounds like a villain justifying his wrongdoing?" Jay commented.

"Ignore his nonsense; he watches a lot of anime and believes he, too, is a badass villain," Ajit replied.

"Look, the orc is about to attack," Lalit said, drawing everyone's attention to the fight.

The Orc had had enough of Dilip's nonsense, and to make matters worse, he couldn't even understand what this idiot was saying.

He picked up his club and charged at the annoyance. Instead of dodging Orc's attack, Dilip rushed at him; They exchanged some moves before Dilip noticed its attack pattern and dodged its club, and punched it in the face, causing the Orc to take a step back to regain its balance.

Everyone was taken aback when they saw this scene; no one expected Dilip to be so strong. Jay, Lalit, and Manu noted in their mind never to disrespect this senior.

"Look how weak he is," Dilip said as he turned back to face his group members. "You all should practice more if you want to follow me." He wanted to say more, but a club approached him from behind, targeting the back part of his head. He tried to avoid it, but it was too late. He used his hand to shield the back of his head with his instinct.

The club landed on his hand, and the force of the attack knocked him to the ground.

"How many times have I told this idiot not to talk in the middle of a fight?"

"He could brag after the fight, If he wants," Dev said. Despite witnessing Dilip's injury, the lack of concern for Dilip in the eyes of Rishi and the Seniors surprised all the new members.

"Should we assist him?" Manu asked.

"There's no need to help him; you should be worried about the Orc instead," replied Ajit.

"I suggest you all avoid looking at the fight right now, don't blame me if you get nightmares for months after it," Dev replied.

They all looked at Dilip on the ground, and the Orc looking at him with a sadistic expression on his face. He wasted no time and attacked Dilip again without giving him a chance to recover. Dilip used his right hand to stop the club without even looking back; he grabbed the club and turned to face the Orc, after which he kicked the Orc in the stomach.

"Chiii," the Orc wailed in agony.

Dilip stood up on his feet and charged at the Orc. Without even giving him a chance to understand the situation, and started hitting him with his fists like a punching bag.

This heinous scene continued until Orc cried out one last time, "Chiiii." Lalit vomited when he saw the bloody scene; he had never seen or even heard about anyone killing an orc barehanded.

Rishi looked at the Orc's meshed head, then at Dilip, who abruptly pulled out a cloth from his space ring to clean the orc's blood from himself.

"These guys would make an excellent punching bag. It was enjoyable beating him; I hope other Orcs are too as good as him," he said with a smirk on his face.

This look of Dilip scared the shit out of Jay, Manu, and Lalit. This scene reminded them of the phrase 'Wolf in sheep's clothing.'
