Chapter 47 – Qualifications of a Warrior (6)
◈
After gathering all the equipment, Nellis’ party left the village.
The entrance to the village was locked immediately after Nellis’ party left.
Even so, it was just a matter of hanging a single log at the entrance to the village to block it, so if many kobolds attacked, it could be easily breached.
Outside the village entrance, Nellis’ party saw more than 50 kobolds.
“There are that many kobolds…”
It felt scary as the animal-like sounds of kobolds and the clear footsteps of 50 of them moving at once were getting closer and closer.
“Hey, Mr. Kalt, what should we do!?”
“I’m still not confident that there are that many…”
Nellis was embarrassed and asked Kalt. Although Scarlett was showing signs of recovery, she expressed anxiety over the large number of kobolds.
“Aria, ask for the blessing of strength and speed.”
“Yes, yes! God! Please bless the author!”
After receiving Aria’s blessing, Kalt looked back at Nellis and the others and smiled.
“Don’t worry. Have you forgotten who the person in front of you is? Maybelle is an expert at moving quickly and catching multiple monsters by putting them together.”
Kalt said as he pulled out his sword from its scabbard.
“Nellis!”
“Yes!”
“First, I’ll go first and kill them and attract attention. You deal with the remaining ones when they come to the village. Just because they’re flocking in droves doesn’t mean you can’t catch the kobolds, right?”
“Oh, no! I’ll catch you!”
“Okay, Scarlett!”
“Uh, yes!”
“As soon as the numbers are low, and it’s okay, I’ll use my magic, and since I’m the head of the academy, I’ll blow them away with all my might.”
“Okay.”
“Aria, please help the two of you.”
“Yes, Kalt!”
“Then…”
Kalt laughed as he took his stance and pointed his sword at the group of kobolds.
“Let’s get started!”
Kalt kicked the ground and charged at the group of kobolds.
Later.
Nellis said every time she recalled the situation at that time.
Kalt became a fierce gale.
A fierce gale that scatters the blood of monsters.
Sigh!
Blood arose.
Blood spurted out.
Blood was sprinkled.
What Nellis Party saw after hitting the ground was a Kalt moving so fast that he couldn’t capture it properly, and the kobolds with their throats cut and chests cut and blood spewing out as soon as the Kalt passed by.
-Krrrr!
-Crrrraat!
The kobolds, feeling that they were being attacked, growled harshly and tried to attack Kalt.
But it was no use.
There was no way the kobolds would have been able to properly capture Kalt’s movements in the first place.
Sigh!
Instead, he tried to fight back in vain, only to have his arm cut off.
“Wow, it’s amazing.”
“Is that really human movement?”
“That is the kind of skill that matches that of the fastest hero, Maybelle.”
Nellis and the others stared blankly at the overwhelming and unrealistic sight.
No matter how low-intelligence the kobolds were, they could instinctively feel the difference in power as they felt their compatriots being continuously harassed.
That’s why.
-Crrraaat!
Some kobolds rushed towards the village without paying attention to Kalt.
“Nellis!”
Nellis came to her senses after hearing Aria’s voice and drew her sword.
“You can’t pass through here! Yaaaaa!”
Nellis swung her sword at the approaching kobold.
A strike wielded with a streamlined movement, just as Kalt taught.
Sigh!
The teachings she had received from Kalt so far were ingrained into Nellis’ body, and she definitely took the kobold’s life.
“Please come as many as you wish!”
Nellis was clearly scared when she first saw the group of over 50 kobolds.
However, Kalt personally provided relief through his actions.
They have Kalt.
The sense of security that came from the existence of Kalt was a great strength to Nellis.
I wasn’t afraid of the kobolds that barely escaped from Kalt.
One, two, three, four.
Every time Nellis defeated one kobold, Kalt was dispatching them from afar at three times the speed.
‘It’s not about 50, is it?’
The number of kills that Kalt has made has already exceeded 30.
Nevertheless, the kobolds kept coming from behind, and among them, there were five high-ranking individuals such as Kobold Warriors.
After seeing that, Kalt was convinced.
‘There is a Kobold King.’
Top level object.
Kalt did not doubt the emergence of a top entity that creates its own lower kin.
‘But it’s a little annoying. Ianna quickly got rid of this with magic.’
Although he was still upset and angry that he had been kicked out, Kalt recognized the skills of Maybell Party, who had overcome the problem through hypnosis.
If Ianna were here, she would have created a whirlpool and wiped out the kobolds in an instant.
‘If it’s high-level magic, Scarlett can use it, but…’
Even so, it is not at the level to use advanced magic in this large number.
‘First, let’s kill the Kobold Warrior, leaving only one.’
Thinking that just one Kobold Warrior would be enough to take down Nellis and his group, Kalt became a gale again and swung his sword at the kobolds.
“Haaa!”
Suddenly!
“Ha, ha, ha.”
’20 with this!’
Nellis felt it right from the moment there were over 10.
It’s definitely not more than 50.
Even so, Nellis did not despair or feel intimidated.
I was able to swing the sword with confidence because of Kalt, but thanks to my improved skills after being taught, I was able to take down the kobolds much more easily than I thought.
Confidence is directly connected to the strength of God’s protection.
Nellis was able to swing her sword at the kobold she had chosen without paying attention even if a kobold attacked from the side.
Besides.
“Stop shrinking!”
Grrrr!
It’s not just you who is fighting.
In the distance, Kalt is still causing a whirlwind of blood among the kobolds, and although it is only beginner magic, Scarlett is firing magic from behind.
The flames thrown by Scarlett immediately burn the kobold, relieving Nellis’ burden.
‘I have enough stamina. The momentum of the kobolds coming also decreased. It was good. Cheer up… Huh?’
As Nellis looked ahead of her, cheering herself up, she caught sight of the Kobold Warrior approaching.
‘Kobold Warrior? Why… Did Mr. Kalt miss it?’
At that moment, the past of being struck by a Kobold Warrior and being blown away appeared in Nellis’ mind.
“Ugh…”
But Nellis shook her head and grabbed her sword.
‘I’m stronger than then! I’m not afraid of kobold warriors anymore! I am strong! Furthermore, I am strong! Super Nellis is much stronger than before!’
“Whoa…”
After exhaling and composing her resolve.
“Aaaaah!”
Nellis rushed towards the Kobold Warrior that was approaching her.
“Nellis!?”
“Hey, why are you rushing!”
“I am strong! Yaaaaa!”
‘I will become strong like Mr. Kalt!’
Nellis’ sword swung diagonally from the bottom right to the top left.
Wow!
-Krrr!
‘Shallow! I avoided it!’
The Kobold Warrior, wary of Nellis, who had already killed several of her lower-ranking kin, did not take Nellis’ attack lightly.
The Kobold Warrior, who stepped back and avoided the attack, slashed the sword he was holding towards Nellis.
Nellis immediately raised her sword horizontally and blocked the Kobold Warrior’s sword.
Kaaaaa!
“Ugh!”
‘I got scared!’
Even though she hinted that she was strong, Nellis was not confident that her protection would fully protect her, so she blocked the attack with her sword.
Even as she repeated this, Nellis was embarrassed by her lack of faith in herself.
‘Still… I can’t lose!’
Unlike before, Nellis did not feel depressed.
If you fall short, just learn more, reflect more, and become stronger.
Right now, I have the mindset to grow, and there are people who can guide me and colleagues who will walk with me.
“I… Won’t lose!”
It was a moment when Nellis tightened her arms and tried to deflect the Kobold Warrior’s sword.
Puff pop!
Pup puk!
Three spheres made of flame and four swords made of white light flew and hit the Kobold Warrior, exploding and getting stuck.
The kobold warrior’s upper body was pushed back slightly due to the recoil of the explosion and the subsequent damage.
“Huh?”
“What are you idly doing? Get it over with quickly!”
“Ugh, yes! Yaaaaa!”
Sigh!
This time, Nellis’ sword did not miss and struck the fatal blow to the Kobold Warrior.
The kobold warrior fell down with a loud cry and did not move anymore.
“S-I defeated it! I defeated the Kobold Warrior! But…”
Since no more kobolds had come yet, Nellis looked back.
“Aria! I thought you were going to attack!?”
“I said I knew how to write from the beginning.”
“Ah. Well, I forgot because Aria has never used a holy attack before.”
“I guess that’s natural too. I was afraid that if I used it in vain, the number of times I would use blessings would decrease. But… It seems like there are fewer opportunities to use blessings now. If that’s the case, I also want to become more powerful to Nellis.”
“Aria…!”
“Hey, I used magic to help too, right?”
“Yes! Thank you, Scarlett too!”
Nellis once again felt that she had a reliable ally.
Looking forward again, Nellis swung her sword at the kobolds closing the distance.
“Come as many times as you want! I’ll take them all down!”
Five minutes for her to swing her sword with a confident cry.
Thud! Thud! Thud! Boom!
“W-what is that!?”
-Kuryaaaaa!
Nellis was shocked to see a monster four times the size of a normal kobold charging at her, paying no attention to the kobolds blocking her path, with one of her eyes hurt and covered in blood.
