We have tried everything. Chloe also throws each grenade in Terra Golem’s direction, specifically the one who she is fighting against for the duration of the fight. But alas, her efforts aren’t rewarded. The explosives aren’t enough. And the flashbang and the grenade only momentarily freezes the Terra Golem, which does nothing but delays the inevitable.We still have one grenade, flashbomb, and smoke grenade to use. And the three canisters have approximately 4 minutes before they have another stock again in our inventory.Soon after, it is now the Terra Golem’s move to attack. Once the dust settles in, the four statues rush in our direction without hesitation and ends up tossing Chloe at the side. The princess is too slow to react as the monster’s hand crashes against her. As soon as the rocky hand hits Chloe, she flies and hits a narrow bridge. I thought we were going to die. Fortunately, that isn’t the case, considering Chloe hopelessly grasps on the floor’s ledge and pulls herself
“So let me sum up your plan, Kuro… Basically, we go after the Terra Golem’s legs, specifically one leg - but it would be better for us to choose one part, so it would be the right one -, and hope they will crack. And if it creates a fissure, we will store the severed limb in our inventory and push the golem away, hoping it would fall. Is that right, Kuro?”“But what happened to the headshots, Kuro? Is it not the Terra Golem’s weakness at the head? Or am I seeing things differently?” Chloe adds. “Well, technically, most of our enemies would have a weakness found on their heads. The same can be said to the golems, since the head should be the most fragile part of those stone statues compared to its other body part. But… That doesn’t mean we have to aim our guns and bullets in that direction. We can compromise and change course, since defeating the Terra Golems at its head won’t cut it. It would be if we only had better guns. But not this time. Maybe we can spam grenades at its head, ho
“Are you okay?” I ask.Chloe grits her teeth and nods. “Yeah… I think I am alright.”Clearly, Chloe has injured her knee and that makes it difficult for her to stand let alone walk. But she bears the pain and shrugs it off as if it’s nothing but out of the ordinary. Dejavu. This happened before, and it is happening again. But instead of succumbing to the pain and surrendering against these golems, Chloe picks herself back up and stands her ground. Her eyes glare in the distance where the Terra Golems can be found. I want to ask if Chloe can still run. But it seems that is a useless question if I wish to throw it at her. What if Chloe shakes her head and answers “No”. What am I going to do and expect? Nothing. So instead of pressing the idea, I continue on praising Chloe and spitting plans on what we can do about this situation.“For starters, that’s a good block, Chloe. It could’ve been worse, but it didn’t. We could’ve died, and that would have been the end of it. But yeah. So… I h
And that is one minute. As soon as Chloe notices that these Terra Golems are keeping up the pace, she will run backward once again. The princess climbs towards one platform onto the other, hoping she can somehow create a distance between us and the Terra Golems.Woefully, these scumbags of a monster are faster than any other creatures we have faced. The moment Chloe turns her back around, the Terra Golems are already catching up, and are almost a few yards away from where we are. So instead of using the sniper, Chloe switches to me with a rifle and pulls the trigger. Despite the panic inducing situation, Chloe still manages to aim at me, her gun, properly and hits those limbs of the Terra Golems.Chloe does this for a few too many times until the Terra Golems are only a few feet away. The princess then swaps me with an SMG, the UMP-45, and wreaks havoc against our targets, still desperately trying to aim for the Terra Golem’s legs. But this time, most of her bullets missed.All these
Fortunately, our chance shows signs of life as we find these Terra Golems injured after the barrage of bullets we have rained upon our opponents. But it is at the cost of a new pattern of attack we have unlocked to our bosses. Instead of just charging in our direction, these golems efficiently come up with an idea and let two others perform what they do best while the other hurls rocks at us at a jaguar speed. But seeing those cracks on the Terra Golem’s skins makes us brimming with joy, knowing we have a fighting chance. The only thing we have to do now is to continue throwing grenades at our enemies and shooting them from afar or near. That’s our only choice. Despite what we are seeing right now, we still have to dodge those projectiles from reaching our figures. Eventually, those rocks finally hit us. But since these Terra Golems are not great pitchers, these rocks deal an average amount of damage against Chloe. Still, that has left a mark on Chloe’s skin. And as a princess, havi
Within a few minutes ,those Terra Golems fall to their demise before they can even do anything. Chloe and I watch these Terra Golems dive into the abyss, and not a splatter echoes in the setting. The two somewhat healthy Terra Golems also watch their comrade die because of us. Once these monsters have registered inside their heads that their friend has died, their heads shift back to us. And their eyes glow into a hellish vermillion. These creatures are not capable of vengeance and feeling other emotions. But they have realised that we are a force to be reckoned with. So they increase their speed and end up right in front of us. When the Terra Golem reaches its head in our direction, Chloe jolts upward, dodging it in the nick of time. If she hasn’t this would’ve been our end too. There are only a few platforms for Chloe to jump on. So she continues leaping to one platform into the other and doesn’t attack the Terra Golems chasing behind us. There isn’t time for Chloe to do that. And
Kuro’s Perspective___________________We were down to our last form of luck. I didn’t know anything else about how we could win this match… but we did. The moment Chloe threw And right now, Elizabeth and I can’t comprehend our victory for this day. It feels like this is a dream come true, and it is something we wish to cherish with our lives. This was the fight we couldn’t win. And yet, after everything, we eventually came to the top and brought the trophy with us.We already took down the giants… and ended up getting what we have come for. The items magically appear inside our inventory, and that should be enough to serve as evidence we have indeed defeated four Terra Golems. We still have one more to go… but for the time being, we have forgotten what it is… and focus on achieving victory in our battle.Chloe… followed every single instruction I had given her. She has become strong. I still remembered that girl when she cowered in fear, unable to do anything but doubt herself and h
Just like what Prince Faelar has warned, we sprint as fast as our little legs can and eventually arrive at the gate. We don’t know what is chasing us thanks to the pitch black place. The only light we have inside is the system flashing a faint luminance from its window. But since we are dashing for our lives, we have triggered hundreds of traps. And I’m surprised we are still alive right now.But everything is in the past. Right now, all we want to know is… what the hell is even this Acemome plant that is so valuable to the point we have to risk our lives. And if this is truly priceless, why did we pluck this herb out from its home? Chleo and I share the same question. I don’t know why, but we have this feeling that we may have goofed the legendary herb, which is supposedly living its peaceful life inside this holy sanctuary. And we just have to take it away.“Now… Can we have those answers, Prince Faelar?” I mutter. If only I had a face, maybe I would’ve already stared at Prince Fael
