Second Story Online: Aiming To Become The World’s Number 1. Ideal Witch

The red beast drags his body and starts moving again. A group of golden pikas that reflected and glowed the full moon light was also about to move, as they left the lake and chased the beast that moved to the woodside.

"What the fuck, you guys!

"... sorry, the red beast will be processed here"

We jumped in so as to interrupt between the red beast and the golden picka group. A red beast trying to escape behind his back. In front of me are murderous people. It's sandwiched in those two.

"Light, you go after the Red Beast!

"So, but I'm not alone..."

Mr. Wright is perplexed by Mr. Kyle's words. I see Mr. Kyle is going to hold them back, isn't he?

"Then go with Mr. Tsubaki. We'll stop this place."

I also stand next to Mr. Kyle. If you're stuck, it's two more than one. Besides, it's just second-hand.

"... you have understood"

"What, wait a minute!

Mr. Tsubaki takes Mr. Panicky Wright forcefully with him in charge of his shoulders. I don't know where you have that power, but I'm going after the Red Beast with a quick move.

Well...... leave the red beast to the two of us, let's do our job. I stare at them to restrain them so they don't go after the Red Beast and the two of them.

"Meh, you're going to take our prey!

"The Red Beast was a man polluted by the power of chaos. You can't take them down like that without the help of a brave man!

"You know that!

Members around them also raise their voices so that they are in tune with the leader-like man. Mr. Kyle still didn't stop.

"My life is at stake! You know what I mean!

"What's life, though NPC would say he's dead anyway. Get out of the way! Get out of our way!

NPC...... that's true. But we're not leaving. We are role players. As someone who lives in this world, we must act. If Chloe doesn't want to go through here, I'll be the one who moves right through it.

And I want to help her, too, Mr. Lucille. Even if that is in the form of embezzlement of the interests of others. Even if this is a nuisance, consisting of our play.

"It's not good to take people's lives lightly."

"Is there life in the NPC of the game?"

NPC's life would be that light. But we can't possibly think so.

This is just a game. This is how we play because it's a game. You can't go through here because you're playing with character, because you're playing with it for real.

I'm just serious about the game in a different way than you guys.

"Apparently you can't discuss it..."

"We're gonna have a discussion with people like you. If I get in the way, I'll smash it, that's all."

The leader's man laughs. We're only two against eight. If there's a difference in numbers, you think you can just clean us up and go after the Red Beast. That's why I don't go after Mr. Wright and the others.

"I don't want to fight, but I can't help it"

'... is there any way?

I think I put up a sword and a shield with a rugged look on my face, and I hear Mr. Kyle's voice double. No, I guess it sounds that way because I'm flying individual chats right here while rolling rather than double.

"Don't think you can beat this difference in numbers!

"Come on, what about that!

"Isn't that right?"

Returns an extra grin at the words of the person who incites it. And tell the truth in individual chat. 'Cause I didn't think the two of us would stop the eight! Would it have been better if Mr Tsubaki had stayed after all?

"If you want to chase the Red Beast, take us down before you do!

"Oh, you're right! I won't let you go to the lights. We'll never get through here!

Bishi, you and I decide. Isn't this the best looking occasion!

But...

"Ten seconds! Just for ten seconds, so stand up to eight opponents on your own!

"Huh!? Don't be impotent! I can only do it for five seconds!!

"Then stretch out another five seconds with the intention of dying! Yes, Ju! Cuckoo!!

"I already started chanting! 'Cause I can't, you idiot!

Neither will they think they are having this kind of interaction in individual chat. But... if I can win one, this is all I have.... I just have to stay alert. Eight opponents can't have a long fight, we'll have a super short showdown.

So please protect me for ten seconds, Mr. Kyle.

The opponent also moves by the fact that I have begun chanting magic. The eight parties are divided into avant-garde and rear guard, each divided into four persons.

The avant-garde, leader-like man is a one-handed sword. Other big swords, then spears. I have one shield, just like Mr. Kyle. There are two guards who seem to be recovering. One magician. One bow holder.

- Eight seconds.

The avant-garde group comes around Mr. Kyle. Mr. Kyle goes in with a shield bash to hold the shield. I forced myself into the middle of them as it were, Mr. Kyle. Looks like you used your provocation skills there. This will only allow the four avant-garde groups to attack Mr. Kyle.

- Seven seconds.

The problem is the guards. They are free to attack because they have not been provoked by Mr. Kyle. While the magician is chanting, the bowman shoots here. I was reading that, so beside the chanting, activate [Windshield] with a double chant to defend.

Nil deployed [Dark Mist] for me before an even more powerful attack flew in. You'll be released because you have a recovery job, but you can still earn a few seconds. Nil, please keep jamming, too.

- Six seconds.

Mr. Kyle is struggling against four opponents in the center. When I thought I had lightly handled the big shield to prevent the enemy from attacking, I immediately stepped back and avoided another attack. Powerful attacks engage and sometimes strike back while being attacked.

Was Mr. Kyle so strong? No, you must have improved your player skills better than you used to when you partied. It was a battle played out in just a few seconds, but that's all I can tell.

But even he's just four opponents like that. Your health is at stake, so take out the recovery potion and throw it away. I was able to quickly remove it from my bag so I could throw it right away.

- Five seconds.

"Who told you to go through!

I said, "Oh, shit!

Kyle's body was glowing blue. The skill name [Brave Armor] after checking the log. Apparently, that skill was doing less damage, and there was less damage to be taken in the extreme. I see. Is this what it means to be okay if only for five seconds?

It feels like Kyle no longer cares about the damage, stopping the four avant-gardes. It won't be possible for Mr. Kyle to defeat them, but they won't be able to attack me or move on unless they defeat Mr. Kyle under the influence of their provocation skills. Only at this moment now will Mr. Kyle have become an insurmountable wall for them.

But only the avant-garde groups are affected by their provocation skills.

- Four seconds.

The guards have been revived. He came back and attacked me early.

Manage to use [Ground Shield] to defend your bows and magic attacks. It broke right away, but no harm done to me.

- Three seconds.

"Give it up! No matter how hard you try, you can't beat us!

The avant-garde group recovers health with support from the rear. I wasn't that hurt originally, but you wanted to show it to me. That you can't win.

But that's something we don't know yet. I take the [dark soup] out of my bag that I created before this. Put that all at once. I swallowed it even as I wept at the stench of reversal.

My hands tremble and drop the vessel, leaving the soup overflowing the ground. Never mind that. I was chanting. I put my strength into the wand so that the magic wouldn't fail.

- Two more seconds.

The end of gnarly and distorted vision. Underneath my health gauge is losing momentum, there are ten icons that indicate a state abnormality. Three of them will be ineffective because they are resistant, but even if they were removed, seven of them came with abnormal conditions.

"Chloe!"

Kyle was looking at this one with a surprised look. It's okay, this is what I did. I'm not dead yet.

"I don't know what you're chanting, but that's it!

"- Huh!?

I thought the light exploded from the rear, and that's flying toward us. The identity of the light is lightning. You can only see it by its appearance to be a high-firepower magic. If I eat this, I die.

- One more second.

I close my eyes unexpectedly to the dazzling blue and white light. Shortly afterwards the sound of the explosion caused by the magic sounded.

"Chloe!!

I can hear Mr. Kyle from afar. A more chopped voice than earlier.

"Apparently, he's dead. You're the only one left!

I laugh niggardly as the leader's man was convinced of the victory. It must have expired, the blue and white light that was protecting Mr. Kyle disappears. It's just a situation where even you don't have much strength anymore. There's nothing Kyle can do about this, is there?

Well, that's if I was dead.

"What is this!!

A purple magic formation rises at the feet of a group of golden pikas. You would be fortunate to be within all this distance. And then I rely on my vision from Nil to expand my magic. It was easy to do because it was from above.

"Drink by the darkness and disappear! Darkburst!"

Completed ten seconds of chanting and was rolled out [Darkburst]. An explosion by darkness swallowed the golden ones. It may be themselves and the broken golden armor that dance glitter in the dark.

"Kukkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk...... ahhhhhhhhhh! Think fully, my dark power!

Nil's sight had a look of a black witch laughing high on the tree, grabbing the tree so it wouldn't be skipped by a winding gust. Of course it's me.

I'm here because I avoided the lightning just now with [Shadow Move]. It was on this tree that I avoided.

"Ugh, you're lying..."

An explosion on the ground has subsided. The ground was decided to tell the story of the power of the explosion, with eight human beings falling around. Probably all of them, they don't have the strength. There's no sign of any movement at all.

That would be the case, too. Because this [Darkburst] has different digits of power.

Increased power due to night use, a characteristic of dark magic. [Moonlight] [Down above] [Dark Wisdom] Increased power by skills, including.

In addition, this time the effect of [Dark Price] is also activated. Increases Attack and Magic Attack while in an unusual state. Specifications where the higher the number of abnormal conditions, the higher the rise value.

This time I had [dark soup] with ten abnormal conditions. It was essentially seven, but apparently even seven of them could have worked too well. It was powerful enough to strike it off even if its status was down in some anomalous conditions.

Hehehe... You've done horrible magic while I'm at it!

"Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

Ahhh! I was so determined to laugh! The flavor of the soup just now has returned to the wobbly clap...... I can't stop coughing because of you, it's painful, it's disgusting......

The sight remains gnarly from earlier, so sight sickening is applauding. Plus the colors are kind of blurry and gradually grey... grey? Gray!?

"Gaha... forgot, I was..."

Yes, I was. Condition anomaly attached by [Dark Soup]. You had something to do with continuous damage...... Because of that, I died in just a few seconds.
