Chapter 96 part2

The flow of the battle reversed in a heartbeat as soon as the band of Orcs jumped into the fray.

Kwaaahang!!

The shock wave spreading out in the air easily blew away thousands of tentacles blanketing the sky like a dissipating fog.

And that lull in the constant attacks of tentacles naturally gave the Knights much needed breathing room; now that their own pace had been regained, they were in the position to go on the offensive.

*SFX for tentacles rushing forward*

However, the number of tentacles shooting out from the Monster bird seemed to know no end.

Still, the assault from these elite Orcs were no laughing matter, either.

Whenever they swung their destructive maces, tens of hundreds of tentacles turned to dust. These Orcs didn't rely or care for style or technique, just focusing on brutal strength only.

—-!!

The Orc that was the most heroic and magnificent roared out aloud and kicked the ground hard, jumping into the air.

His leg strength allowed him to jump up several tens of metres with absolute ease, and he went straight towards the Monster's cockscomb…

*SFX for tentacles shooting something out*

Instinctively sensing the approaching danger, the tentacles mounted on the Monster bird's body began spewing poison towards the Orc while making a strange noise. But the Orc didn't give a damn and simply activated the Leviathan's scales to the absolute maximum.

Although the Monster fired off the poison confidently, it had no effect on the scales, other than washing off the dirt and making them look more shiny than before.

'It's not enough.'

But, unless Sae-Jin was in the Lycanthrope Form, it seemed that this was the limit of what the Orc's leg strength could do; he was actually aiming for the creature's weakness, its comb, but he could only reach the edges of its wattle on the neck.

Since there was little he could now, he used the Skill 'Fierce Strike' on the wattle, instead.

Tthaaahang!!

The clear and vivid roar resounded at the same time as the attack connected. The Monster bird writhed in pain after its vocal cord was attacked, but it couldn't cry out that destructive crow anymore. Now the things had come to this, the plan B was proving to be better than he initially thought.

*SFX for tentacles attacking*

However, the tentacles were not suffering from the same pain as the Monster bird itself, as they were separate entities to begin with. Since its host's life was in danger, all the tentacles seemed to lose any reasoning whatsoever and focused solely on one target, rushing towards the Orc that had attacked the Monster bird.

And well, that was the biggest mistake this Monster could ever make in its life.

"Everyone!!"

Pressed for time, Kim Yu-Rin shouted out one word as she dashed towards the Monster bird. Other Knights shared the same thought as her and every one of the 10 Knights present jumped towards the Monster.

But in all honesty, there was no need for all ten of them. It was enough with Kim Yu-Rin there. She squeezed out every ounce of Mana from her body and activated the Trait 'Desideratum', imbuing the sword with the strongest purpose she could load the weapon with - "faint, never to wake up".

"…."

The moment Yu-Rin's sword struck the Monster, its body began to falter to the side slowly.

"Heu-euck…"

Even Yu-Rin herself faltered and squatted down as well. As she didn't have enough Mana, her Trait would remain activated for ten seconds at most, but that ten was more than enough.

After all, it didn't matter if those tentacles still thrashed about, as the Monster bird lying on its side unmoving was no better than a chicken waiting to be slaughtered in the end.

On top of this massive fallen chicken, the group of Orcs and Knights descended.

And so, that was how Kim Sae-Jin was able to read yet another feel-good alert window.
