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
Since we already have the plant in our hands, the system and the Sanctum of Ugmjir recognises our achievements and ends up shaking the floor. The earthquake - or what I want to call a keplarquake - morphs the place. We have just noticed it by now, but the place we are standing at has a circular shape. And before we know it, the area we are at right now becomes a podium and instantly brings us upward without warning. That knocks out Chloe and Prince Faelar. But it doesn’t take long before they open their eyes and welcome the enthralling sight of the outdoors. I have never felt so thankful after the experience I have had underground. The green pint covering the trees becomes a blessing, and the array of light shooting out from the sun brings me warmth. The instant my feet touch the grass, ecstatic tingles through my nerves. That’s not all. A gentle breeze touches my skin, and the air inhaled through our surroundings is a blessing for my lungs, compared to the dust and pebbles covering
We stay in for the night and rest until the sun comes back tomorrow. Although it is better for us to reach the Nylsshys as soon as possible, everyone has their bodies kneeling on the ground, begging for a rest. And rest it shall be. We don’t have any time to exchange words of wisdom or stories, as the two carnal desires have kicked in. The faster these two can rest, the earlier they will wake up. And if we can resume to the road, we will reach the Nylsshys in no time... maybe a few more hours from where we are. Since Chloe and Prince Faelar aren’t up for the quest, out of good heart, I have volunteered myself to keep watch. And this time, I will not go offline or go into rest mode. I know I have done it a while back, but I will not risk everyone’s life to do it the second time. Chloe unlits the campfire, so we will not be seen by any bounty hunters or rogue adventurers. Although the fire can serve as our light to shine at the darkest corners of this forest, it can also attract unwa
Third Person Point of ViewMysterious Person’s Perspective__________________________After leaving the person I have been following, I go on a trip… a mission to eliminate my target as a bounty hunter. Playing goody two shoes isn’t my style. But since this has to be done and there are no available bounty hunters within the area, Anne Amazon personally requested me to take care of this annoying business.The quest doesn’t break me any sweat at all, thanks to the monsters I possess and control. Once I found my target, I immediately shredded him into pieces. And that was the end of his story.It doesn’t take long before I have ended the task and plan on returning with the familiar party I have once with. I don’t miss them. It’s just that the person I was with before was the princess of the Winfort Kingdom, and that is my target. Although there is a bounty on the princess’ head, I do not dare to take her life just yet. It seems Anne Amazon has something else in store for them, and I humb
