Kuuuuuuooooooooaaaaaa!
The Ogre swung around its stout arms and released abestial roar, Alan lithely tilts his body to the side to avoid the blow. At the sa ti, he brandished his sword and lets loose a sword flash. In the twinkle of an eye, the skin of the Ogre which was supposedly as tough as steel was ridden with a countless number of cuts.
GuuuGaaaaaa!
Although its whole body was filled with cuts, it did not get daunted in the slightest by Alan, instead the Ogre raises its arms high into the air in order to smash Alan like a log. At this point, the fla bullet that Wikia shot out exploded.
Having its whole body wrapped in flas, even as an Ogre, it started to stagger and stumble to its knees. Following up on the attack, Nadja promptly cuts the body of the Ogre with a sideway swing, splitting its upper body and lower body into two parts.
Fuuuh
After wiping the blood of his sword and putting it back in its sheath, Sharl cos running to Alan and touches his arm. After chanting out a short incantation, warm light warps around Alans wounds, and within monts his arm had already recovered beautifully.
Umu, its might is splendid. Cutting up the target into two equal parts, shall I na this sword: Sword Slashing?
The Warrior Nadja was speaking joyfully, she was the one who was able to completely split the Ogre into two just now. She had gentle wavy hair, it was long and was red copper in color. She was a tall and beautiful woman. She was from the southern country Grandeira, she had a frank and simple temperant.
. Wouldnt it be better to call it Long Sword 1 or sothing?
The person who retorted Nadja with a murmuring voice was the Magician Wikia. Wikia was a beautiful girl that had silky smooth hair that was bluish silver in color that went straight down. She didnt really have a very expressive face and she was quite shy, but the fact is, she was probably the most companionate and kindhearted out of the bunch.
Ah, I-I think that it is a wonderful na
The Priestess Sharl butted in and spoke in a fluster. She had erald green hair that was styled in a bob cut, she was a petite young lady. She looked considerably young but contrary to her looks, she was a white elf and was actually the oldest amongst them. Whenever the party enters into a quarrel, she would smile brightly and calm every one down with her smile.
Then my sword would probably be called Sword Slicing the sword that shreds
And the person who tapped his sword against his waist whilst replying to the girls was the only man in the party, he was their leader, the swordsman Alan. He had blonde hair and blue eyes, he was a good-looking man. Not only was he skilled with the use of his sword, but he was also capable in cancelling magical traps, he was quite the all-rounder. His bravery knows no bounds, capable of making calm decisions in the midst of battle, he was a resourceful adventurer.
With just the four of them, they planned on challenging the rumored fiendish and brutal Dungeon of the Evil Magician Aur. They have already set foot on the fourth floor of the underground dungeon. Goblins, orcs, ogres, skeletons, dragon flies, giant slugs All kinds of creatures have been sent to stop their advances but none of these monsters were their match.
Instead, sotis the defeated monsters would drop treasure chests and inside of these chests, they would be able to obtain powerful magical items and or gold coin, this only served to boost their current war potential. The sword that Alan and Nadja had been able to obtain is just a few of the things they have managed to obtain.
Leaving that aside, Alan.. Over there
Pulling on to Alans sleeve, Wikia pointed her finger at the corner of the corridor. When Alan turned to look at where she pointed, there seed to be so kind of big door. It was different from all the ones they had seen so far; it was a double door that seed to be quite solidly made.
It was as if it was proclaiming to the world that there was sothing of value beyond it, Alan gulped down his saliva.
What should we do?
I still have enough mana remaining
Im also fine
Im not even tired! I also have no problems
Just from hearing that single phrase from him, his party mbers understood his intentions accurately, and promptly reported their physical conditions.
Alright, then lets go!
with a nod Allan gently examines the door. There is no keyhole and there doesnt seem to be a lock either. Looking over his party mbers again, he forgoes using words and instead gave them a countdown using hand signals.
3, 2, 1
At the sa ti the countdown reaches 0, Alan kicked the door open. Nadja passes through the door first, Alan goes next and jumps past the door, Sharl and Wikia quickly follow suit and close the door behind them. Their actions were executed almost instantaneously.
While Sharl and Wikia are closing the door, Alan and Nadja pull out their swords and runs forward. On the other side of the door was a big hall and a huge monster was sitting down at the center. The body was muscular standing at about 3 ters tall, the monster had the head of a cow. .It is the so called: Minotaur.
Alan and Nadja approach the Minotaur before it was able to stand up and slashed down their swords from the left and right at the sa ti. The Minotaur was still sitting down as it raised its huge axe and blocked their attacks like it was nothing special.
Clicking its tongue in disdain, the Minotaur stood up in front of the two people, and they quickly jumped backwards to create so distance in fear of a counterattack.
This ax was sothing that seed like it needed two full sized n to even carry properly. Yet the Minotaur was swinging around this large broad-axe with one hand like it weighed nothing.
Launching its attacks towards the two, combining the length of this huge axe with how big his body was, the reach of the Minotaurs attacks was no laughing matter. Alan just barely managed to avoid the blow by taking a back step, however Nadja was unable to avoid it and was blown away.
Are you alright?
However, despite the fact that the impact of the blow was enough to split a persons body into two, she didnt have a particularly serious wound. Sharl recited a spell which covered all of her party mbers in a dim light, applying a damage reduction buff.
Yeah, Im saved thanks to you. But, I dont think that we can approach it carelessly
The Minotaur was wielding its broad-axe in this spacious area. Although Alan is barely able to avoid its blows, when the Minotaur uses its ax to strike the ground, the violent impact causes parts of the floor to fly as debris towards Alan, and this causes him to sustain innurable minor injuries. In addition, because parts of the floor were being destroyed, Alan was unable to efficiently use his quick step movents, and it was consistently becoming harder for him to avoid the attacks.
I will try to stop its movents. Because I dont think that we can hold out for much longer
Saying this, Wikia begins to recite a long incantation. Nadja nods and rushes towards the Minotaur.
Seeing her approach, the Minotaur wields its ax and performs a side sweep.
Uohhhhhh! (Light Novel Illustration: Nadja, Wikia and Sharl)
Roaring, Nadja firmly stabbed her sword into the floor. Imdiately after, although a trendous amount of impact rushes through her body, she was able to block the blow of the large-axe with her sword, it stopped just right in front of her. A terrible crash attacks Nadja and although the blade digs into her left arm which was holding the sword in place, it was by no ans an injury that would put her out of commission.
Thereupon a wall of stone rose up on both sides of the Minotaur. It was Wikias magical spell. Normally this stone wall was used as a defensive spell, however, a half-hearted curse spell would be unable to stop the Minotaurs movents so this thod was used instead.
Nadja, follow up!
Seeing a good opportunity, Alan thrusts himself towards the Minotaur. The Minotaur reacts quickly and pulls the large axe back towards itself and then swung it down towards Alan with all its might.
However, Alan nimbly dodges. Thanks to the stone wall trapping it on both sides, the Minotaur couldnt wield its axe freely and was limited to downward swing type movents. Just by this fact alone, it beca much easier to avoid the attack. And then, using the fact that the Minotaur was aiming Alan, Nadja jumped up kicking the wrist of the Minotaur using that as a foothold.
Running up its fat arms like a set of stairs, she swung the sword with both her hands in a sweeping motion. Her aim was to do a finishing blow, right towards the Minotaurs neck.
However, even though her sword was sharp enough to bisect an Ogres body into two, it was not enough to cut the muscular neck of a Minotaur. After digging into its skin for about 30 cm, the sword stopped in place.
Kuu, damn it!
Panicking she tried to pull the sword out, but that was not possible either.
Its dangerous, watch out!
An impact attacked Nadja. However that was not an attack from the Minotaur. It was actually Alans soft arm that pushed her away. And, Alan who took the blow in her stead was flung away really hard by the Minotaurs stout arms, he was dancing around in midair like a rag doll and it was a shocking sight to behold.
Alannn!!
The usually composed Wikia let loose a scream.
Im..F-fine, dont worry about !
Blood flows out of his mouth, as Alan manages to answer in a muffled voice.
Do it! Finish it off. Sharl, Wikia, Nadja!
Alan gave them his orders. The three girls imdiately understood his intentions.
The Minotaur used its hands to swing and it strikes the stone wall. The wall was only a temporary construct created out of magic, and it was no match for the physical strength of the Minotaur. Roaring loudly, it caused the stone wall to crumble.
Buuuuuuooooooooo!
Being wounded it was enraged and the Minotaur charges forwards. Its aim was Nadja.
God, grant light!
In that mont, Sharl shoots out a magical light. A light which destroys creatures of darkness and demons, it was Gods light. This spell was not able to damage the thick fur of the Minotaur but it was enough to blind its eyes.
Losing its eye sight montarily due to the strong glare, the Minotaur staggers. The Minotaur was charging at her aimlessly pointing its horns towards her, Nadja once again jumped and maneuvered herself towards its neck. Since she didnt have anything in her hand, Alan threw a sword towards her. Almost at the sa ti, Wikias magic coiled around the sword making it shine.
Uooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!
Using all the might within her body, Nadja swings her sword straight down Nadjas sword was still stuck on the left side of its neck and this ti around her sword strike cleanly cut the Minotaurs neck into two. Its large body shook, and vigorously crashed into the ground.
Are you alright, Alan?!
Ill heal your wounds right now, okay?
Please dont be so reckless next ti
Before long, they were absorbed in deep emotion from the victory, and the girls all rushed up towards Alan. Placing her hand against Alans stomach, Sharl speaks quickly and chants out her recovery magic.
Youre a real lifesaver, Sharl
Soon after, his wounds disappear and Alan was patting Sharls head. Sharl looked really happy as she closes her eyes and smiles joyfully, the two other girls Wikia and Nadja however were grumbling out a complaint.
What about ? Im the one who dealt the finishing blow, you know?
I think that I played an active part in various ways as well
I understand, Nadja and also Wikia, thank you both for your hard work
When he patted both of their heads, Nadja smiles pleasantly and Wikia pouts her lips cutely muttering out both of us at the sa ti? as she blushes. Alan realizes that the three girls liked him. However, for the longest ti now, he was unable to choose the one he liked the most.
I was wondering who would be able to make it this far, it turns out that its a lady-killer like you
Suddenly a deep voice that seed to co from the deepest parts of hell itself echoed. Panicking they turned towards the sounds of the voice, and there was a man with amber colored hair, however, he was sitting right on top of the Minotaurs corpse and as if he was evaluating them, he was staring at Alans party mbers.
Wearing this strange mask, they were unable to discern his looks underneath the mask, he did not bring any weapons nor was he wearing any protective gear, he looked like an ordinary man. However, before he called out to them, they didnt even notice his presence, and this abnormality was enough to make Alan and his party to raise their weapons.
Dont tell .. You are? The Evil Magician, Aur?
Precisely
Aur nodded at Wikias question. With the unexpected appearance of the master of the dungeon, Alans party started to feel the tension rise.
Hmph, to think that the Magician who caused chaos in the whole country was such a young man. Moreover, he doesnt even bring any guards with him and he is just nonchalantly showing himself to us, how lucky can we be?
Nadja brandishes her sword. the sword is part of the swordsmans lifeline. Before she ran towards Alan, she had already collected it If she didnt do this, she would be in a dangerous pinch right now.
Without needing to give the signal, both Nadja and Alan ran out at the sa ti. Considering that they were facing a Magician, the best course of action was to attack swiftly, at least this was the theory. No matter how powerful a magician is at manipulating magical energy, their bodies are usually weak and slow. It is very efficient if you are able to kill them before they have a chance to chant out any magical spells.
Alan aims for the neck and Nadja aims for the torso. The blow did not reach him, for so reason Aurs body could not be hard.
The man with the lithe body acts as a distraction, whilst the woman deals the finishing blow. The priestess is adept at recovery magic and prepares for any contingencies, whereas the magician stays at the back and covers the group with her magic. To think that you could coordinate so well and move instantaneously as a group
Speaking heartily, Aur was observing the two people that was stopped in front of him. It wasnt just the two people. Even the two girls at the back were unable to let any sounds out, flapping their mouth open and close, they were unable to utter a single magical incantation.
However, even a party of this caliber was caught in such a simple trap. Dont you think that it wasa little strange?
Hearing his words, Wikia was startled and she was going to take off the ring on her finger, but naturally it does not co off.
They were being cursed. Wikias ring, Sharls cane, both Alan and Nadjas swords, all of these things they obtained from the dungeon were cursed.
While the weapons boasted a magnificent amount of power, they were unable to oppose the master of this dungeon. That was the kind of curse it was.
Well then, the swordsmans cannot move and the magicians cannot cast their magic. In this kind of a situation, how about I have this fellow keep you company?
The body of the Minotaur which had lost his neck slowly rose up from the ground.
