Chapter 19 - Unstoppable attack

The situation became really bad.

First of all, I lost to the bastard prince.

Just when I thought it couldn't get any worse, a game event happens.

A huge creature resembling a giant armadillo appeared.

It was called Xerxes in the game.

That's because the color of its carapace is white.

Its skin is a mixture of brown and gold.

He is perhaps a thousand meters tall and two thousand meters wide.

It was the favorite pet of the last demon king.

In the game it was never explained how it came to the empire.

What I did know was that this thing was a really difficult problem to defeat.

I expected the protagonist and the capture targets to take care of it.

But... the shit I'm seeing right now doesn't make me happy at all!

What the hell are you doing here!

How did you get to the empire before the four years' time skip?

Have you always been here?!

Damn it! How can I defeat that thing?

"Rooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!"

The huge creature roared at how annoyed it was.

It must be from all the attacks that hit its big hump that is its back.

To make it all worse, this thing had a 700% defense. In other words, to defeat it we had to sacrifice an entire city while attacking it, it would set about destroying everything.

In the game it didn't matter since they were NPCs, but right now those NPCs are real people like my family.

So what the hell should I do to defeat him!!!?

If only I had told Amy what I was going to do, she would have sneaked over and then helped me.

Uwahh, Amy, save me!

"Roooooooooaaaaaaaaaaah!"

The huge monster roared furiously, its eyes staring at Regulux.

Then, I watched it perform a game attack.

Big stomp.

His right paw lifted, tree debris and dirt fell.

Being as high in the air as he could, he brought it down at great speed.

The earth was rising and rippling. It looked like a tsunami.

That tsunami of earth was headed straight for the prince.

I was scared, I didn't know what to do.

I could go to save him, but I decided not to.

The great column of earth rose so high that it hit him in such a way that his Pegasus was instantly destroyed and he was thrown skyward.

"Your Highness!"

I heard a voice, it was Lambert shouting at the sight of the trash prince still in the air.

Before I turned to see him, he disappeared.

But then I felt a fading presence.

It was him. He was leaping through the earthen debris at high speed, leaving an illusory silhouette of his image.

Like a princess, he caught the prince who had his eyes rolled back in his head.

"Lux, come in! Are you all right, Lux!"

Lambert was returning to the place where his resting side was.

He laid him down and some healers came to see him.

But that doesn't matter now, it's only this thing that's going to kill us all that matters.

What the hell should I do?

◇◇◇

"What's that!"

"Uwah! We're going to die!"

"I want to live!"

The audience was screaming in fear and running like crazy at the sight of the huge monster that emerged from the ground.

Only two figures were calm.

"Did you imagine something like this could happen, Dolph?"

"Of course not, instructor. You are sometimes very funny, hahaha."

"It's not a joke. Anyway, it was good that we came. We have work to do."

Christina stood up and shouted.

"Everyone evacuate this instant! Drop your belongings and run to the boats! If it's full, it doesn't matter, just get on and get out!"

"Fua~, you sure are good at calming them down."

"Stop wasting time and get to work. Saint of the sun."

Dolph stood up and likewise called out to his instructor.

"I guess you're right, the sainted spinster; aka, she's looking for a boyfriend in a hurry."

The moment Christina heard that.

"Dolph..."

Her fist descended on her former disciple's head sinking him to the floor.

"Don't you ever call me that again in your fucking life! Did you hear right! I'll kill you with my bare hands!"

Christina opened her eyes and they were staring at Goredolph with intensity.

Anyone who had seen them would have felt fear.

Not because of how she looked at him, but because of how they looked.

Two dark black sockets were her eyes.

She had eyes, but they were blackened like night.

It looked almost as if you were looking an insect in the face.

Goredolph stands up laughing.

"Hahaha, instructor, you sure are funny. You are called like that by everyone. Besides, I can see your eyes."

Hearing that her eyes were visible, Christina immediately closed them. She was still annoyed with him.

"W-Whatever the case. Don't ever call me that again, did you hear right!"

She rearranged her hair.

Then, she took off her robe that covered her body.

The moment she did so, everyone's eyes stared at her.

It didn't matter if they were male or female.

The figure of that female elf was what they watched with desire.

Steel boots with wings.

A very beautiful decorative sword with a greenish edge that shone in the light.

Her long braided hair swayed in the wind.

Likewise, her mini skirt did. It was a mix between a playful and a rebellious look.

Her full belly was exposed.

She was very curvaceous, not even the muscles she had were noticeable.

She was almost like a very thin model.

Above her stomach, what she called cleavage.

There was a steel bikini that held in place two huge fleshy fruits.

They were covered, but an opening at the top was visible so they could breathe.

The reason she was hated by the female players was because of that.

Christina was very sensual.

Women were envious of a fictional character.

For that reason alone, they would send toxic comments to the developers. They had to kill her at an event to stop getting those comments.

Similarly, she was the reason men would buy the game.

It was a strangely clever tactic.

No one lost, the company won either way.

Sadly, Christina in this reality as in the game suffered.

Her outfit was chosen by the ministers themselves.

She is the kind of woman who prefers to cover her whole body and only her husband to see her naked.

But she didn't have one, for that reason she was nicknamed in that unpleasant way.

Once both sword saints were ready.

They went to fight.

Goredolph used a very advanced Lyonnet Style foot technique.

It was called. Radiance of Sound.

A footwork of such a high level that Razel tries to duplicate.

The swordsman gathers the magical power within him, directing it to his feet.

As his feet are filled with magical power, the moment the energy within, collides with the mana in the air, it created a small chain reaction that generates an explosion.

In other words, a master swordsman can leap into the air and run at great speeds.

Goredolph jumped in a straight line towards the monster.

While Christina, recited a spell.

"Elven magic: nymph wings."

A beautiful, transparent angel wings grew on her back.

Like a bird, Christina took a slight leap and began to fly.

Her appearance as she took to the skies closely resembled a Valkyrie.

Her beautiful appearance combined with her sword and bikini armor made her a femme fatale.

The two sword saints were heading to fight head on with the creature that was still motionless.

The first to attack was Goredolph.

"Fire magic: flaming pillar of Surtur!"

Then his mentor.

"Elven magic: Deirdre's celestial court!"

Christina made several diagonal movements, a crescent-shaped light flew at high speed, at the same time as Goredolph's whirlwind-shaped pillar.

Both attacks met and one of the players' favorite combat systems was born.

Combined mob.

"Deirdre's Flaming Spiral!"

A green colored whirlwind was coming at high speed straight at the monster.

The impact was great.

Its head and back were hit that even knocked it back.

This was the power of 2 of the 4 sword saints.

But, it had no effect.

The huge monster was furrowing where its eyebrows should be.

Annoyed. It did the same thing again as it did a short while ago.

This time it was not one, but two of its paws.

It was, a double big stomp.

This time it was not one, but two of his paws.

It was a double big stomp.

This time it was no longer a tsunami, but a tidal wave of earth.

The ground was being lifted and trees were flying.

It was coming right at the place where the audience was still evacuating.

But they would not allow it.

"Dolph!"

"I know!"

Christina put her sword forward, the edge gleaming as she raised her voice.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

Likewise, Goredolph, who showed off his beautiful sword that looked like a flame of red.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

Magical power was gathering in them, then, a combined attack came.

"Fire magic!"

"Elven magic!"

The red and green glow made them look like a shooting star.

Then, in unison, the attack to repel that tidal wave of earth was launched.

"Elemental judgment!"

A wall of fire accompanied by gigantic spears of air manifested in the air.

The spears struck like drills at the tidal wave and gradually stopped it, but it was still very strong.

The wall of fire, upon impact with the tidal wave and the spears, made the spears turn into flames which pierced with more force the great mountain of earth that continued to come at great speed.

Both of them. They were hit and swept away.

Fortunately for them, the audience managed to evacuate just in time.

But not for them. Both back saints were hit by the tidal wave and the structure.

It was a frontal and rear attack.

A huge explosion of earth occurred.

Goredolph and Christina went flying through the air. They could be seen covered in blood.

They fell in different areas generating a great roar.

Razel saw it all.

He could not believe it.

Two of the strongest in the empire were defeated.

Just then, the creature was on the move.

It roared again, and this time, another event happened.

In the distance, a group of creatures was rapidly approaching.

The direction was where the vanfield forest was.

Razel thought as he saw that.

(So, the reason for being underground is because those things were his minions?)

(It seems crazy, but monsters have hierarchies too.)

(There's no other choice. We have to get the hell out of here.)

Razel turned around to get on a boat and get the hell out of there.

But, at that moment...

At the speed of a blink of an eye, a rock flew straight at him.

Razel could not notice it in time.

But the rock hit him so hard, that it knocked him off his steed.

He had to grab hold of tree branches to keep from falling so hard against the ground.

Once he fell, he touched his head and some blood dripped down.

As he got up, he felt a presence.

Before he turned around, something pierced his forearm.

He quickly backed away and hid near a tree.

He checked his arm, the wound was not fatal, but blood and a lot of it was coming out.

Razel did not understand what was happening until, in one of the tree branches, he observed the culprit.

It was...

"You! What the hell are you doing?"

Lambert.

He was making a wicked expression, his beautiful familiar sword was unsheathed.

Razel's blood, dripped from the tip.

"Answer me! What the hell are you doing?"

"Don't you see the situation we're in!!!"

Razel shouted. But Lambert did not change his expression.

He descended to the floor, and before he fully stood up.

"Rooooaaaaaaahh!"

Roared the huge creature as it began to walk once more.

Its footsteps made the earth tremble.

The flying monsters arrived, they were close to him.

Lambert noticed it, but thought nothing of it. Instead, he was saying to Razel.

"You... a simple, repulsive baron with no territory dared to hurt His Highness, Lux."

His bloodlust coated the atmosphere with a very cold discomfort.

"Unforgivable! Unforgivable! Unforgivable! Unforgivable! Unforgivable! Unforgivable! Unforgivable! Unforgivable! Unforgivable!"

He bared his teeth in anger.

"I will not forgive you for daring to challenge His Highness, much less hurt him! By Luz, my friend! I will kill you right here and now!"

For the first time in his life. Razel watched this boy's expressions.

He was a little astonished, but then his glib face distorted just like Lambert.

"Sounds good to me, but you know something?"

His ugly face was distorted by anger as his opponent.

"I have two things to tell you. The first; that stupid prince will never be anything but a burden. And the second is for you."

The expression on his face showed a crescent in his smile.

"Drop that stupid complex about your father and the prince. I always found it disgusting how you have no personality of your own. Lambert, I was always disgusted by the way you thought and acted, that's why, just because of you. I was losing on purpose to get you killed."

"I have no idea what you're talking about!"

"Nobody cares!"

Razel's right hand moved to the side.

"I didn't want to use it on you, but right now I'm going to do something I never thought of doing."

Magical power was gathering in her.

"You are one of the 12 candidates to be the next sword saint and one of the three swords, those who are the best of the 12."

Sparks struck the air.

"At this time, I will show you my trump card."

A longsword was beginning to manifest, the edge was was was covered with magic power still.

"Let's see if indeed it's fame you have is nothing but lies!"

The auras of both of them were emanating a strong red color.

"I'm going to kick your ass real hard, you stupid girl-face!"

"I'm going to kill you, weird-faced guy!"

The final battle that never happened, was about to begin.

The ultimate final battle, Razel vs. Lambert!

The next chapter will be full of action and violence.
