The instant Rashkaâs shockwave crashed into the kingâs descending great sword, a violent tremor shook the earth. Aluhaliha who was sitting by the side on his rider-beast called out to Gi Gu Verbena, who was leading the horde in the kingâs absence.
âAre you sure you donât need to save him? Rashkaâs strong, you know.â
But Gi Gu did not move an inch
âIt is the kingâs will. We shall obey. If you try to interfere, I will use all of my power to stop you. Even if your purpose might be to save the kingâs life.â
With his arms folded, and his eyes looking down, he watched the battle between the king and the enemy general unfold.
âThe king will win. Todayâs no different. And from now on too, that is how it should be.â
A glint like burning fire shone within his two eyes as Gi Gu Verbena gritted his teeth tight and folded his arms even stronger.
He wanted to move. He himself wished to do so, but he desperately kept that urge at bay.
âRightâŚâ
Since thatâs how this goblin who is his senior in service to the king, then he, Aluhaliha, could only do the same.
As he stifled the stirring of vexation within, he kept watch over the kingâs duel.
In the background, the bird of misfortuneSkyura, provokingly sang.
âââ
My sword slammed into the shockwave, and an explosion of dust literally blew up in the aftermath.
Shockwaves continued to fly toward me. But each and every time, I would swing my sword and crush the shockwave head on.
âNu.â
For a short moment, Rashkaâs pained voice leaked. It seems heâs realized that that magic heâs so proud of isnât working.
Long Range attacks are impossible for me. So thereâs no other choice, but for me to slip through these attacks, and challenge him to a melee. Unfortunately, itâll be a narrow margin even in a close fight. But I mustnât think of losing.
If anything, if I end up distancing myself from him, all it means is that a shockwave will come flying at me again.
As my great sword met his shockwaves, I resisted the pressure of the exploding wind, and I stepped forward.
âLaughable.â
An attack that looked to crush me, descended. Be it strength or speed, Rashka was indeed above me, howeverâŚ
âMy life is like a cloud of dustAccel!â
With my magic supply bolstered by the[Skill] <>, I increased my speed to the limits. As a shockwave resulting from the explosion of ether hit me from behind, I rocketed off. Then in an instant, I suddenly stopped the ether.
By the time my sound and vision returned to me, what was before me was Rashkaâs figure, swinging his club down.
âTch!â
âTurn my body into a blade!Enchantâ
âMake it in time!
I swung the blade at my side to meet the descending club. The two enchanted weapons crashed into each other, causing black sparks to scatter. Both weapons were blown away, but the one to recover his posture first was⌠the enemy!?
My great sword, held by both of my hands, was blown away, while the enemy swung down his club one-handedly. If the two forces were the same, then of course the resulting shock would be weaker on the enemyâs side.
I needed to leave the range of his club, so I separated from him to shake off the force I received just now. As I gradually managed to stifle the strength of that force, I immediately fixed my stance as soon as I stepped out of his range,
In front of me was a black shockwave, let loose from a downward swing. That attack that was strong enough to hollow the earth, crashed into the ground and caused an explosion, giving rise to a tempest. For an instant, our eyes met.
Aiming for his arms thatâve just swung down that club of his, I took my sword, and slammed it into him. But the enemy also took his club, and he managed to meet my great sword. Again, I was blown away.
âShit, what kind of strength is this!?
Iâve already used <> and yet his strength is still greater. Not to mention, on top of his superior strength in melee, he is even able to attack me from a distance. Doesnât this mean that I virtually have no chances of winning? But still⌠I canât lose.
Isnât there something? Something I could use to defeat him!?
I checked my skills inside my head, but the only two remaining skills were <> and <>. These two skills are too risky.
I donât want to kill this goblin. I want to make him kneel before me and serve me.
That is my objective.
The Ganra Tribe mightâve something to say about that, but I want his power.
As I was thinking that, I continued to keep alert., but for one moment, just one moment, I mightâve let my guard down. And in that moment, Rashkaâs body neared a place that my great sword could not reach.
âââNot good!
Leaving it to my instinct, I swung my enchanted sword.
âMy fury howls!Slashâ
âTurn me into a blade!Enchantâ
At the two explosions, the two forces were offset, and I once again stood before the enemy.
For a moment, I glanced at the sword in my hands that had been blown back by the shockwaves from the explosion. At that moment, it was as if the goddess of knowledgeHera whispered to me.
Itâs possible in theory, but can I actually do it? It has been some time since I first learned Accel.
âNo, I donât have the time to test things out at my leisure!
As if to intercept my thoughts, the enemyâs club started freely attacking me. A downward swing. An attack from both sides, followed by a thrust. Attack after attack after attack came, but I somehow managed to answer to the enemyâs herculean strength with my magic.
As I fought back the enemyâs continuous attack, I gradually took some distance.
âââ
Heâs resisting my attacks quite well.
Even from amongst the tribes, there isnât anyone who could fight this well. A unique sword technique, good judgment, and more than anything else, courage. My club was cut down in his earlier attack, but after that, Iâve already seen through everything this goblin has to offer.
Be it power or technique, I am superior!
He also canât attack from a distance.
Then in that caseââââ
Thereâs no reason for me to lose!
I swung my club down to suppress the enemyâs blade rising up from below. As I barely missed the tip of his blade, it grazed past my cheek. Blood spilled out, but if he couldnât do this much, then there wouldnât be any point to this fight.
I will defeat this goblin before me, and name myself king. And for that, there is no better opponent.
As the gray goblin passed me by my side, he once again launched an attack from below.
Donât think the same trick will work on me twice! That conceit of yours will cost you your life!
âClad me in violenceâs dignity!Ra Gilionâ
As a black light wrapped around my club, the surrounding air constricted. The entirety of that swelling black light met the incoming sword. With this attack, even that great sword of his will be buried along with him.
Take it as a present in the afterlife!
âMy life is like a cloud of dust!Accelâ
You wonât escape!
Iâve already grasped your speed.
As I felt the sensation of my club hitting him, a smile appeared on my faceâââ
But then suddenly, because of the great sword suddenly speeding up, I missed the timing of Ra Gilionâs explosion.
I shouldâve had already grasped the speed of his sword. So why!? Why did his sword suddenly become faster!? Shocked, my eyes unconsciously followed my club which has been blown away.
By the time I noticed it, the goblin was nowhere to be seen.
âââI messed up!
As I felt a shock run through me from the side, my club had already been flicked away. Ra Gilion blew up behind me, and the resulting shockwave brought me down to my knees.
âKuâŚâ
When I immediately looked up, what appeared before me was the goblinâs sword thrusted right in front of me.
âââ
If I could increase my bodyâs speed, then I should also be able to increase my swordâs speed. Theoretically speaking, itâs possible. After all, Accel is a spell that detonates ether behind oneâs body to propel one forward. So if the same principle is applied to the sword, then the same effect should be achievable.
After I sent back Rashkaâs attack, I followed up with another attack, and sent his club flying. Immediately after, an explosion blew up behind Rashka.
After those two attacks that went better than expected, I had Rashkaâs neck at the tip of my blade.
âKuâŚâ
That giant goblin looked up to me.
Just how should I coax this goblin who could easily be amongst the five strongest that Iâve fought? How can I make him my subordinate?
I thought of just giving him a speech, but seeing how the resolve to fight still burned within those eyes of his, I doubt thatâll have much of an effect.
Also, itâs only my impression of him after crossing swords, but while his attacks are fierce, he isnât unscrupulous. When we were fighting, he didnât rely on petty tricks, but instead magnificently met my attacks from head on, giving the impression that heâs an honest person.
âYou lost.â
Frustrated, Rashka looked down. Although he had lost, I couldnât sense even the slightest sense of fear from death in him. His body only shook from that frustration.
But of course, he wouldnât easily accept his defeat, would he? Or perhaps, heâs simply confused after losing for the first time. According to the information Iâve heard prior, this goblin hasnât lost once.
âI will have you and your tribe serve me!â
Half dumbfounded, Rashka looked up to me and asked.
âYou donât think Iâll betray you?â
I wryly smiled. Aluhalihaâs one thing, but why on earth would a traitor go out of his way to confirm that? Is it a tradition of you four tribe chiefs to spout things you donât really mean?
âIf you think you can win against me, then feel free to come anytime.â
The first taste of defeat is a lot heavier that one might think. Especially when that defeat is a one on one against a goblin from outside whom you looked down on. So before he manages to shake off that shock, I went ahead and drove the nail into the coffin.
As doubt and anxiety in himself started to rise, he lost whatever he had left of his spirit. Rather than be thinking of rebelling, Iâm sure heâs recalling his defeat. And every time he thinks of rebelling, the image of his defeat should flash through his mind, and he would ask, âCan I win?â
I donât know whatâll happen to the difference in our strength once he shakes off the shock of his first defeat. I might be the weaker one then, who knows. Regardless, I donât have any intentions of confining myself in a small place such as this.
What I seek is the ends of the world.
So from here on out, I need to become even stronger and bigger.
So thereâs no problem.
I will run in pursuit of the world, and Rashka will run in pursuit of my back. As for who will be the stronger, well, isnât that something to look forward to?
Besides, itâs a kingâs duty to answer to those who challenge him.
ââŚUnderstood. For the time being, Iâll follow you.â
For the time being, huh?
I laughed sarcastically at those words. To think a sore loser could be this bad, how amusing.
Now as for my subordinates who are now coming over, just how should I persuade the Ganra, I wonder.
ââââââââ
Level has risen.
