13. Time To Kill That Bitch Right?

With an axe on his hand. A determined heart in his chest. A burning glare in his eyes. Clenching fist on his empty hand. Shaking legs from confidence. And a spirit of an infinite warrior.

Thus man leads himself and his unyielding army to war. To defeat a monster! Charge!

[You Have Died]

"Well... Lack of weapon it is. Ok when is the next fucking weapon from the achievements I need it right now!"

"Well fuck. Guess I'll grind more then. I'll be right back, this fight has been stretched way too long I've lost the readers interest."

Arthur made his way back to his exp farm that resets with just a click of his finger.

But before that Arthur had to upgrade his skill first. The only one that matters. The [Boost Stat].

[Upgrade][10]

[Bonus Stat][3]

Arthur had already previously upgraded the bonus stat one time. The effects were not that huge of a difference. Just adding 10% to the chances, which means almost nothing.

[Bonus Stat][Lv. 2]

[You have a 75% chance to get 1 additional stat point.]

"I'll put all my points in it."

The game was trash from the very start, from having a max level and making the upgrades rely on this level. You were never meant to be overpowered, but the gacha box exists, and if ever the point where more levels are needed for the sake of upgrades and not stats. Arthur was ready to sacrifice his sanity.

[Upgrade][10]

[Bonus Stat][10]

"Shit, even if it was a small amount, spending always hurts one's heart."

[Bonus Stat][Lv. 4]

[You have a 100% chance to get 2 additional stat point.]

"Damn, ok that is good as fuck!". Arthur is now happy with his status. He just had to remember to activate the exp boost the next time he gets a newer one.

"That is so clean! I mean if it was not for some broken ma- damn so perfect. Clear 0, hahahaha. It definitely brought back my motivation!".

After grinding for a while Arthur has leveled up to level 24 and realized he forgot something. With a little math done with his stupid head, the upgrade points have definitely gone above 10 points.

"Wait a second... What is with the narration absence!". Arthur upgraded his [Bonus Stat] to level five. Making the skill much longer as it added another option.

Arthur continued his kills once again as he was just 1 level close to level 25, to get a new reward. Which is his Exp Achievement of a 200% Exp bonus.

Arthur went for 1 more round to get a level up. But sadly, just like every game trying to rank up in a stupid fps game.

[Exp][2480/2500]

"Oh fucking hell! Really that's 1 kill and some percentage of his soul. God damn this shit.". Arthur went and killed 2 goblins and went back immediately just to get the needed 20 exp.

[You Are Now Level 25]

"Ok thank you."

[You Have Gained 200% Exp Boost]

After gaining an astronomical amount of experience boost, Arthur went back to killing the rest of the goblins he has yet to kill.

[You Have Leveled Up]

[You Are Now Level 35]

[Congratulations! You Leveled Up 2 Times]

[You Are Now Level 36]

"Whoah!". Arthur stopped for a moment as his level gained some luck. Though it was only a small stop and Arthur continued.

[You Have Leveled Up]

[You Are Now Level 37]

"Time to upgrade my Skill. Thanks for the reminder pop up, that only appears when something important happens.". Arthur upgraded his skill, and left 0 Upgrade points.

[Upgrade][0]

[Stat Boost][20]

"Well now i'm broke, hahahaha!". Arthur continued again. It feels weird to cut off then return just one level. But finally just one cut after.

"Nice Status screen. Cool as fuck. When I started this game. It was my dream to go to another world. Now this is beautiful.". Arthur was mentally tired. His head hurts like a thousand sleepless nights. "But that didn't even take half a year... What do you mean head hurted."

Arthur started to open his box and managed to get what he wanted after 32 times...

"Ok, so getting a three star sword was much harder than I thought...". After Arthur recharged his human contact battery. He finally went ahead and "tried" to fight the goblin he hated too much at that point.

[You Have Died]

"Ok i'll upgrade my skill."

[You Have Died]

Arthur could fight the goblin for a few seconds, but in reality the goblin's swordsmanship was just way too good.

"Ok i'll perfect you bitch." Now let us watch his fights.

Arthur rushed straight ahead at the goblin. 3 days before he even reached the village. Arthur had extreme speed, reaching the goblin was no problem. As Arthur had the World Map, he knew where to go efficiently.

Though if you were wondering about the Guardian... It didn't work, and Arthur had no idea how to use it. Oh and yeah, he forgot about the help function ones again.

Arthur lunched himself at the goblin. The goblin was covered in silver colored iron armor. He was slow but fast. Arthur used his sword style to attack the goblin.

[Sword King - First Movement: Mortal's Will]

But the goblin parried it and the blow that killed him appeared again. In reality Arthur was not dying because the goblin had fast speed nor impenetrable style. Rather it was the weird attack that he kept getting killed with.

"What even was that!". But with infinite resets, patterns could be studied and countered.

Arthur tried and tried failing and failing. From the 5th try...

"Attack behind!"

To the 12th try.

'Attack up front, he blocks, leave the axe, get behind him and slash!'

To even the 30th try.

'Attack at the right, he parries. He attacks with his invisible air, I jump. Slash at the left, instantly let go then jab his back.'

...

'Attack at the right. He parries... then the air attack. I jump. Attack him on the left. He will block when I get behind and attack the neck. Fake attack it, the blow appears to bend my back below. Kick his feet, remove his balance.'. That was the 34th try. The fight may be going too fast I apologize, let us slow down.

'Remove his balance, now he'll attack. Block the blow.'

[You Have Died]

"Ahhh! What do you mean block the blow! Shit!"

37th try.

'Remove his balance. He'll release his attack at my feet, and remove it. Attack with the other.'. The knight goblin was panicked by the perfect coordination. He released his attack in all directions and Arthur died again.

"Oh come on, that was all directions! I can't dodge nor parry that! What the fuck do I do! Oh, wait how about I just restart and kill him as fast as possible."

38th try.

'Rush him.'

[Sword King - First Movement: Mortal's Will]

It was sadly the only move Arthur knew at the moment.

'Attack the right, he will parry it. Put the sword in the inventory before he parries. Bring the axe and sword out once again just at his face.'

[You Have Died]

The real main problem of killing the goblin was its weird attack. Every time he was in danger it would just kill him. Does not matter how fast Arthur was.

42th try.

'Throw the axe. Throw another stone. Get behind him and slash his neck.'

[You Have Died]

"Oh come on! Does he have ultra instinct. What the fuck is this!"

Arthur kept dying and dying. He kept coming back to the plains to wait out the penalty. While waiting he plans a way to kill the goblin by making out any sort of pattern he should do.

Throwing the weapon, attack behind. Throwing a tree, coming out of the ground. Arthur tried everything. All he could do left was perfect it.

52th try.

'Throw the axe. Throw three other stones at succession to distract him for a while. Go behind and slash his neck. Will fail, bend down and kick his leg. As the air attack comes for my feet slash his neck again. He'll attack in all directions I run fast just in the nick of time to dodge at the smallest possible gap of the attacks. Throw all the dragon scales like confetti. Slash at the front, facing him. Attack his left shoulder as he attacks back retract the sword and make it appear again. Let go of the sword and let it on its own. Grab a dragon scale and stab!'

[You Have Gained 350 xp]

"350 Exp for that what the fuck! Ahhhhhhhh! That was fucking messy as fuck."
