153- Showdown 1 Armelia got closer to Orochi and worryingly asked, “Orochi, I think aunt June should be nearby, should we call out for Aunt June?” “Don’t worry. I can handle this. But I think that guy called Ethan will fight me and he will instruct his junior Brother and Sister to fight against you. So, take care of yourself for a few minutes, I will try to quickly solve that guy.” “Yes, take care of yourself.” Armelia’s tone was filled with worry. . Orochi was in no hurry to fight. Finally, after a few seconds of discussion, Ethan and his fellow sect disciples got ready for the fight but when they noticed Orochi’s expression, they instinctively felt that something was wrong, but Ethan gave the command, “NOW!!!” With that shout, Jashan and Pamila dashed toward Armelia. And Ethan drew his sword and dashed towards Orochi. And immediately, Orochi equipped the ‘Red Lancer sword’ that he bought to kill the ‘bald guy’ [refer to chapter- 71] and activated the
154- Showdown 2 “Scorching sword slash” “Swoosh” The distance between Orochi and Ethan was less than 2 meters and in the blink of an eye, the fire slash was in front of Orochi. But this time, Orochi was able to dodge without any problem. A 30% increase in stats is not a joke, especially when considering the fact that almost all the stats have reached 7000 to 8000. After dodging, Orochi dashed towards Ethan. Ethan saw that Orochi dodged his slash, this time he was a little shocked, but he made the fourth slash. ‘Swoosh’ As Orochi got closer, the distance between Ethan and himself was closer to 1 meter, so when the 4th fire slash approached, the difficulty to dodge was almost doubled. And it increased Orochi’s pressure. Just when he felt that with [Physical Enhancement] his pressure got less, he found that it was just a short-term situation. “I guess, I can only activate that ability.” Orochi thought inwardly and quickly activated the ‘Red Lancer Swor
155- A Lesson for both 1 So, cutting off Ethan’s leg is the only feasible thing when considering all the facts, as cutting off his hands or piercing his chest is not a good idea, and aiming for his head, is also risky. But now, Orochi has also prevented Ethan’s chance of escaping. . Seeing Orochi coming closer, Pamila panicked and shouted, “Please, forgive us. I know we were wrong but please don’t kill my senior brother.” “Yes senior, I know we were wrong. Please forgive us.” Jashan also took the lead and started begging for forgiveness. Now the situation of Senior Brother Ethan is not good. His leg is gone, and his combat capabilities have been halved, not to mind about fighting it is difficult to escape in front of this guy, so it is better to ask for forgiveness. As for the ‘Important mission’, life is more important than some benefits and wealth. With that in mind, Jashan started to ask for forgiveness from Orochi. As for Pamila, she was scared about
156- A Lesson for both 2 ‘ding’ ‘-2341 HP’ Orochi looked down and saw that the sword had pierced through and was sticking out. His throat got sweet, and blood started flowing out from his mouth. And when Orochi saw the person who stabbed him, a smile appeared on his face. Yes, a smile. Orochi was smiling. The person who stabbed the sword was none other than Ethan. Orochi was a little surprised to find that this guy, with just one leg, was able to explode at such speed and was able to stab him in the abdomen. “I really underestimated this guy” Orochi thought inwardly. Although he was surprised, his expression did not change. He was still smiling. Living in the Lamia t
157- A Lesson for both 3 “BASTARD!!! I am going to kill you.” Armelia shouted angrily and once again kicked Ethan. Ethan endured the pain and quickly rolled away. ‘bang’ Armelia’s kick missed again. It’s no surprise that Armelia’s missed two times and she is not even able to deal with Ethan whose one leg is missing because Armelia lacks combat experience. Due to her weak constitution, Sheela prevented Armelia from practicing with others. Sheela hoped that one day she would be able to find rare herbs or medicine that could cure Armelia’s condition or at least her cultivation increase, then there may be hope for recovery, but unfortunately Sheela could neither find anything that could help Armelia nor Armelia’s cultivation was fast. So, Armelia would mostly focus on cultivating and practicing basic combat techniques. And still, she would get easily tired, which greatly affected Armelia’s progress. For Sheela all that mattered was her daughter’s well-being, so
158- A Lesson for both 4 Orochi did not kill Ethan immediately. There is also another reason that he let Ethan stab him. When Ethan moved, Orochi had already sensed it. But he did not defend against Ethan’s attack even if he had the power to do so. It’s not that he likes to inflict injury on himself or has masochist tendencies, but he wanted to teach Armelia the price that has to be paid when you make wrong decisions. Armelia has a pure personality. And Orochi who wants to go on a journey to become stronger, if he carries Armelia along with him, then he will face many difficulties. Just like how she asked to spare Ethan’s life on some girl’s pleading, there will be many similar cases in the future. And if she remains the same, then one day either she would die, or Orochi would die. Or maybe both would
159- Change of Plans 1 “Oh... let’s hear it... I would like to know what’s so special about this secret that made your senior brother attack us. If it is truly so special, I don’t mind letting you off...” As soon as Orochi’s voice fell, another female voice rang, “What happened here?” It was June who spoke. Her voice arrived before she came into everyone’s view. Armelia moved to June and narrated everything to her. After hearing everything, June frowned and looked at the two dead bodies, then looked at Jashan and then Orochi’s injuries. Then she checked Armelia, to see if she got injured anywhere. Seeing that, Armelia was fine, June’s face settled. “Whatever you have to ask you can ask later. But first, let us move away from here, the noise you people created might have alerted other monsters or humans in the surroundings, so we should get away from here.” Orochi did not have any opinions, and Jashan did not dare to have any, everyone quickly evacuated and move
160- Change of Plans 2 After Orochi’s consciousness entered the storage ring, he took a look and realized that this Ethan guy was really rich. First of all, the internal space is about 8 cubic meters. This might sound less... umm... yeah it is less... well considering that its dimensions are 2 meters in length, breadth, and height each. But if one realizes the price of such a storage ring then, even rich people would feel distressed. In the market, it would cost nearly 100 Low grade energy stones. Which is equal to a hundred thousand gold coins. Really expensive!!! In the storage ring, there is a corpse of a monster at the peak of the Demi-Monster stage, around 60-70 Low grade energy stones, a few thousand gold coins, a note related to some trade association, a few pills bottles, armor, and finally the map. Without paying attention to other things, Orochi first took out the map. Orochi then took a brief look and compared it to the map given by Sheela, then pass
