Chapter 67: (1)
Kaiyan observed the Twin-Headed Ogre, lying half-face down on the ground, unable to stand due to its mangled legs. However, the monster still looked at him with fierce determination in its eyes.
Its in my favor. Lets move slowly, Kaiyan thought.
There was a significant difference between Kaiyan and the monster the ability to recover from injuries using potions.
Thanks to this, Kaiyans heavily injured body, which had suffered greatly from the collision with the monsters hands, had already recovered enough to move.
Kaiyan-nim, should I use an emergency magic scroll? Reika asked.
No, that would result in a loss of G-Points even if we capture the monster. Overall, it might be advantageous considering the quest, but theres no need to do that, Kaiyan replied.
Reikas small bag hanging on her back contained a few emergency magic scrolls to use in dire situations. However, the cost of capturing the monster had already exceeded a staggering 700G.
If they were to spend even more G-Points here, the reason they came to capture the monster in the first place would be in vain.
Still Reika hesitated.
Its fine. I believe I can defeat the monster even without magic scrolls, Kaiyan reassured her.
If Kaiyan couldnt defeat a wounded monster by himself, then there would be no point in the 50 days he spent growing in the forest.
The player system must have known that too, which is why it gave him this quest. Well, it was just his speculation.
Now, lets end this.
Kuurr! Kwaaak! the Twin-Headed Ogre roared.
Kaiyan cautiously approached the monster, raising his senses to react to any attack.
Even though the monster was injured, he couldnt let his guard down. One wrong move, and the situation could reverse.
The monster is getting impatient. When it attacks, dodge and then strike, he planned.
The red light of frenzy and the power of flesh enhancement had already vanished.
Unlike before, Kaiyan couldnt be confident in easily avoiding the monsters attacks. Thus, he carefully took one step forward at a time.
While watching Kaiyan, the Twin-Headed Ogre picked up a small rolling stone by its side. It might be small, but for him, it was about his size.
Kuwaak! the monster threw the stone.
Whoosh!
The stone came flying with a fearsome shockwave due to the monsters tremendous strength. However
I knew youd throw that! Kaiyan exclaimed.
In a state where he had maximized his senses to react to an anticipated attack, and with no red power, he couldnt instantly predict like during the Lichs fight, but he could make some predictions using cognitive acceleration.
Swiftly lowering his body, Kaiyan rushed toward the monsters right. As the monsters sight was obstructed due to the stone it threw, now was the perfect opportunity.
Quaak? the monster seemed surprised.
Its too late! Kaiyan said.
The monster noticed him a little too late, and by the time it did, he was already close to it. Even though it gave him an intimidating look, it couldnt use its legs, so its attack range was limited.
I can narrowly avoid it.
Whoosh!
The monsters fist descended towards his head, but it seemed slow, like a goblin swinging its weapon. In response, he accelerated his steps even faster.
Kwaaaahhh!
As the Twin-Headed Ogres fist struck the ground, the solid earth split open, and debris rose into the sky. If he had taken a direct hit from that fist, even a knight-level player would have been knocked out in one blow. But
Haah! Penetrating Stab! Kaiyan executed his skill.
Its useless if it doesnt hit.
Before the monsters fist could collide with his head, he plunged his sword inward, aiming for the spot where he predicted its heart would be.
Swoosh!
Kreuaaak! the monster screamed.
With a light sound, the monster screamed. Even without hearing the sound of it gasping for breath, he could tell that his attack had hit successfully. However, he couldnt completely cut off its breathing with this attack, as he couldnt determine whether the monster had two hearts like its heads or if the locations were different.
Keep swinging until it dies! Kaiyan was determined.
If once doesnt work, then twice. And if that doesnt work, he would be even more merciless!
With the green blood splattered over him, he swung his sword ruthlessly.
Fwhooosh-
With the first strike, he cut through its tough skin, and with the second strike, he sliced through its insides.
Kuwaak! the monster howled in pain.
The creature desperately roared, trying to push Kaiyan away. It seemed like it was urging him to leave quickly. However, it was the creatures mistake.
The Twin-Headed Ogre should have attempted a minimum attack while roaring.
You got scared, Kaiyan instinctively realized as he heard the creatures roar. It meant that the monster was scared, and thats why it didnt swing its fist at him, who stood right in front of it.
Kreurr.
When Kaiyan lifted his head and stared at the creatures face, its eyes, which had been shining red just moments ago, were now back to a gloomy gray.
It was like the creature was admitting its defeat.
Perhaps, if its two legs were unharmed, it might have tried to run away from here.
Now youre pretending to be pitiful?
As if understanding Kaiyans words, the Twin-Headed Ogre made a pitiful expression. Well, it could be his imagination.
Kreurr.
Youre nothing more than a weakling.
Even if he felt fear, compared to Gnoll, who would keep charging forward until the end, the creature was no different from a physically gifted coward. The reason it was acting like this was that it was born strong and had never experienced such fear. Just like Tarien.
In Panielun, Kaiyan had encountered a similar creature. A Griffin a predator that slaughtered ordinary soldiers with its tough skin. However, it was an easy prey for knights.
Enough pretending.
Kwaaak?
