8-Episode 8: Those who are quite pitiful



 With their hard skin and powerful muscles, Orcs are excellent at attacking and defending themselves.
 On the other hand, their movements are relatively slow and their intelligence is low, so they are not a formidable foe as long as you can handle them.
 However, that is only if the number of opponents is small.

"Hey, hey, there are more than 20 of them!
And that guy in the back... he's not a king orc...?

 Unlike the normal oaks that have reddish-brown skin, the lead-skinned oaks could be seen.

 The King Orc was the upper level of the Orc.
 They are much bigger than ordinary Orcs, and their power is incomparable.
 They lead Orcs to form packs and attack villages and towns, so as soon as they emerge, a large strike force will be formed.

''Ooh-oh-oh!''

 As soon as that King Orc roared, the orcs rushed towards us all at once.
 An earth-shaking sound roared in the area.

''Hiiii! Keiji-sama.......please help me!

 A passenger clings to the man in the Gladiator.
 The man shakes it off.

You have to be kidding me! I can't fight a king orc with that many orcs in tow!

 He jumped down from the carriage and fled alone, leaving the other passengers behind.

'I'm not going to be there! I'm not going to risk my life for a stranger!

 Furthermore, the woman from the Twin Swordsman also left easily and left.

''Hmm. They're pretty cold-hearted.

 I jumped off the wagon.
 I walked toward the approaching herd of orcs.

'Hey, visitor! This isn't someone that an "unemployed" customer can do anything about!

 I kicked the ground while listening to the Gosha's voice at my back.
 The distance between me and the orc who was running in the lead instantly closed.

''Buhhhh!

 My sword clicks the orc's brain and the huge body collapses.

''Wha! What was that speed...?
You're not suggesting... a contraction skill?

 Hoh. You only had to see it once to see it.
 It's not a contraction skill, but a recreation of it.

 One of them is hit, and the orcs are upset.
 But they were soon painted with anger and leapt at him with a yell.

 They are swallowed up in a flash.
 Wielding primitive axes and sticks in their hands, the orcs attack.
 But it never reaches me.

''Dancing...?''
'It's true! That boy, he's dancing and dodging the enemy's attacks!
'No, that's not all! Look closely! Orcs are falling one by one........

 Just like a butterfly dancing, it evades all attacks while sewing up the gaps.
 At the same time, she swings her sword to cut down the orcs.

It's a "sword dance"........that's a "sword dance"! Only the highest ranking player, the Sword Princess, can use this offensive and defensive skill...! But why would he, a man...?

 You know your father very well.
 Of course, this is not a skill. It's a sword dance that he learned on his own.

 Before I knew it, all the orcs that were around had been wiped out.
 I'm not sure if the wounds are fresh or not, but the ones that are still barely alive are trying to attack me from behind.

''Bhoho........''

 Without looking back, he swung his sword and stabbed a thorn in the side.

''Even the ''Attitude Detection'' skill...?

 Now all that's left is him.

"Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh!

 You are very angry at having your entire company wiped out.
 He comes at you with a huge club in his hand.
 And as soon as the distance is closed, he raises the club wide and slams it down boldly.

''Watch out!''

 With a roar, the ground was gouged wide open and sediment leapt up.

''Oaaaaaah!''

 The King Orcs thought they had finished him off and let out a victory cry.

'Alas, I'm not going to hit him with such a big swing.
Ack!

 I was leaping behind the King Orc, and even above his head.
 I raised my sword above my head as far as it would go.

''A blow with all your might should be done in a situation as sure as this.

 He swung his sword as hard as he could into the King Orc's brain.
 The skull is destroyed and the blade reaches the brain.

 The giant body slumped down.
 The King Orc was doomed.

''Oooohhhhhh!

 The passengers who had been watching me fight, forgetting to flee from the middle of the fight, all shouted with glee.

'Wow! You took down a king orc and all those orcs all by yourself!
What a boy!
Haha, to say you're "unemployed" is a f*cking liar!

 I'm not lying.
 Oh well.

 The carriage starts to move forward again towards its destination.
 Fortunately, no one was killed or injured.

 However, those two men who were heading to the City of Swords were nowhere to be found.
 I'm not going to be able to get away with it because they ran away before I could defeat the orcs.

It's not a good idea to be a swordsman who runs away with that level of skill, it won't work in that city anyway.

 He says once and for all, "They will be at a level where they will be satisfied with just becoming a [senior position].

They will be satisfied with the level of satisfaction they get from just being a [senior position] after all. A senior position is just the starting point in that city. What's important is how to aim higher from there. Even if it kills me, I will become even stronger. If you don't have that kind of spirit, you won't be able to advance any further.

 That's very harsh.
 But you're right.

 After that, we didn't get attacked by any demons, and after passing through several towns and villages, we eventually saw the huge city walls.

"So this is the City of Swords?
