Demon King

Chapter 6. Private Shop 2

I wish I could tell you the time.

At least I'd like to know how long I've been wielding my sword.

When fighting, focus only on fighting. These rules have allowed me to silently swing my sword and lift my shield to stop an enemy attack without counting the time in front of me, counting the number of enemies I have defeated, or checking status.

In the process, I realized that I had no talent for shield handling. It doesn't fit physically. It was a matter of skill and none.

If you move without thinking, you will be more urgent to evade or expel the enemy's attack with your body than to shield it.

Moreover, unless the level rises so quickly, in order to revitalize the exhausted body with consecutive battles, it does not go smoothly, as both hands are blocked with swords and shields during combat.

Eventually, I was happy when I first acquired the shield, putting it in my inventory and confronting the enemy with only Bastard Sword.

There are so many Goblin fighters that no matter how well they dodge, they eventually inflict one or two more wounds on their bodies, but when they hold a corpse in one hand and chew it, their stamina continues to recover and there is no big problem.

Physical strength and injury are actually other problems, but I was able to endure them right away unless I was seriously injured, and I continued to bleed as much as I was bleeding, so I did not disturb my mobility right away. Eventually, it levels up and heals all wounds. I would be annoyed in the face of it.

But this only works when it comes to Goblin Fighters. Those Goblin Warriors are deadly even if they are attacked once, so you definitely need a shield to stand up to them.

However, it was only after I saw the bitterness of the third Goblin Warrior that I was boasting about the power of predation that I realized that I was consuming the remaining lower health potion.

Since then, I've worn a shield when fighting Goblin Warriors that are approaching me, noticing the commotion one by one. Yes. I hunted more than ten Goblin Warriors that way.

At that point, the number of persistent Goblin Fighters began to decline.

“Kick, Kick. ”

You can see the Goblin Fighter cutting off his right arm with a rusty sword in front of him and stepping back. I looked around without cutting him down.

A passageway covered in blood. A mountain of Goblin corpses, most of which I have not kept intact.

However, I don't see any other Goblin Fighters. Neither does the Goblin Warrior.

You're done.

He put a knife through his heart, screamed, and finally paid the price for his bullshit. It was really hard to let go of that shit again.

The fact that my body was not very tired made my mind even more tired.

But we have to finish this.

“Kiiic? Kiiiy! ”

I wielded Bastard for the last time, though I wielded so much blood.

The goblin fighter's neck protrudes up into the air, leaving a bloody vision in the air. I grabbed it and chewed it.

[You got 70 XP.]

[You got 10 bronze.]

The Goblin Fighter who gave you 100 EXP when you first encountered him has now given you only 70 EXP.

Moreover, since the amount of EXP needed to level up has increased considerably as I level up, I should be able to catch hundreds of Goblin Fighters to level up.

I looked around again. It's spectacular. When I was a Human, I would puke just looking at this scene.

With a smile on my face that had recently changed so much, I sat on the corpse of a vast and clean Goblin Warrior.

“Well, I'll eat well. ”

It may take longer to eat it all than it did in a long, long battle.

With that in mind, I pulled the body of the nearest Goblin Fighter. Then I opened my mouth.

[Goblin Fighter Hunt Predatory 524/1 ,000]

[Goblin Warrior Hunt Predatory 12/200]

I looked in the hallway, outside, and inside the inventory. I confirmed that I had eaten all but one of the Goblin Warrior's corpses for emergencies. For reference, the inventory was 4X4, namely 16 compartments according to the second evolution.

It's a tough fight. Once it's full, shooting three or four pitchforks at Mana is easy, but pulling the ship out with a sword is hard enough as it is.

I ate it so hard until I ate 100.

But then I noticed that one Sanga Status had an added leap skill.

[Beginner's Leap Lv1]

[Height, can run far. The higher you run, the higher your level will go.]

The skill description was simple and effective. Up, forward, left, right, back, it was just a running skill.

The disadvantage of this skill is that it consumes enormous stamina on topics that can only run up to 1m on a level 1 basis.

And that was, at least now, a blessing to me.

From the moment I confirmed that the leap was in the Status, I ran hard. Every time I ran, my stubborn heart opened up. Health was also consumed rapidly.

After only five runs and five runs, I became hungry again.

From then on, I ate until I was at full strength and magical strength, lowered my figure using leaps and thunder, and repeated eating until I was at full strength and magical strength again.

I couldn't do it with my mind, but I was originally insane. Moreover, it was less stressful to continue eating than to continue fighting.

I was tired from the dungeon after a mass appearance. I probably just kept eating for more than a few hours, but nothing new Goblin Fighters appeared in the passageway, and no Goblin Fighters came through the other passageway.

Without being disturbed, I ate over 500 Goblin Fighters and 12 Goblin Warriors. Goblin Fighters are better than Goblins and Goblin Warriors are better than Goblin Fighters. But I wanted to eat the squeeze rather than this.

After finishing my meal, I started confirming the status quo that I had put off.

[Fade]

[Hobgoblin Lv. 29]

[Strength – 107 HP – 106 MP – 36 Luck]

[Skill – Dark Heart, Predatory Lv2, Lesser Slash Lv2, Beginner Height Lv3, Beginner's Leap Lv5, Beginner's Detection Lv9, Beginner's Attack Lv3, Beginner's Bow Lv4, Beginner's Abnormality Resistance Lv5]

I sighed deeply. Even though you've killed 524 Goblin Fighters and 13 Goblin Warriors, you can only level up to four. I don't know how many levels I can level up with 476 Goblin Fighters left.

Still, I was pleased with the growth of stats and skills.

When I was a Goblin, I only gained 1 Strength and Health. Whenever I became a Hobgoblin, I gained 3 Strength, 3 Strength, and 1 Magical Strength fixedly. To this, predation added a stat of 1 to the power and stamina of 4.

Having eaten more than 500 fighters but only gained 4 Strength and Stamina means that my strength and stamina increase as well as my required level up experience.

It doesn't matter if I complain. Eat harder.

Able to be more easily pleased with skill growth. A lesser-ranked sword becomes level 1 and level 2. I can't believe it hasn't just been acquired because of its power and magical power consumption.

The sneak attack skill did not go up because it was useless, but the detection skill steadily rose to keep the lower ranks in sight because it was being sensed throughout the battle. Abnormal Resistance Level +5.

The only strange thing is the skill of a Tongue Sole.

[Beginner's Tongue Lv4]

[You can lead the herd. The higher the level, the higher the number of groups you can earn under the command, the stronger the load, or the higher the skill level if you successfully lead a large number of groups.]

Now there is no one in this cave but me. I don't control anyone.

Of course, I didn't try to use this skill. But I couldn't use it even if I tried to use it.

However, only skill levels have gradually risen to level 4.

[Beginner Cane is Lv5.]

Level up again. I didn't do anything.

No matter how much I thought about it, there was no answer. There was no way to know.

Skill that cannot be used and only levels up. Does that mean anything to you? Nothing.

I decided to just forget that I own the sole. If you go up to the lower ranks later, you'll have to try again later.

Hunting and feeding are over. There are no monsters around.

Then the time has finally come.

[67 Silver 70 Bronze]

I decided to try a private store.
