Chapter 95 Part2 (2/2)
”Ah, yes! Yes?!”
”…Can you do this? Your target is its eyes”
The reason for escorting (?) a Griffin while sacrificing a part of the reward payment was to attack the Monster bird's weak point Since the creature was as tall as two Ogres stacked together, it would be incredibly difficult to hit the weak points located on the creature's head with their sword auras or ic attacks, after all
”But of course~ Leave it to me”
Yi Hye-Rin vigorously replied, and as if to agree with her, the Griffin next to her powerfully flapped its wings once
”…Well, then Everyone, please drink your potions now”
Kie' while telling the others to do the same
This scarlet-coloured liquid was rated first a the body fortification potions on sale It was also seen as the next best ite potions It was in such a demand that it was difficult to buy one as it was so rarely circulated on the market
”Don't hesitate because it's rare, just drink it all Well, any re potions will be confiscated” (Kim Yu-Rin)
At her declaration, one or two ended up drinking the whole vial of the potions all the while still feeling great regret at the same time The obvious exception was, of course, Yi Hye-Rin, as sharing her potion with the Griffin
”Let's go”
The effects of the potion was as advertised All the Knights who had drunk the potion could feel their vitality increasing exponentially
”Okay!!”
<>
”Let's move!”
”I' up ahead!” (Yi Hye-Rin)
- Kkiiieeeck!!
As they had practiced before, the Griffin took Yi Hye-Rin on its back and flew into the sky while roaring out loudly And when the Monster bird's focus was draards this sudden intrusion, the Knights on the ground quickly et
Sensing so was amiss, the Monster bird extended out its tentacles from its body, but the combination of Yi Hye-Rin and the Griffin easily avoided those while she wielded her sharp sword
There was no real need to get too close, since there was the attribute 'Bending' imbued within her sword, which allowed her to freelydistance at will
SFX for a blade slashi+ng through air
The sword light from Yi Hye-Rin's attack drew a blue-coloured trajectory as it snaked its way towards the Monster's eyes And soon afterwards, the pained roar reverberated throughout the land
”Yeehaw~!!”
30 seconds after the battle had begun After achieving her goal, Yi Hye-Rin let out a loud shout And the Knights rushed forward towards the Monster bird while the assured smile of victory formed on their faces

Someone once said that one should wait until the end before celebrating
Although the raid teaht less than one minute into the battle, the situation afterwards then steadily became worse and worse for them
The issue was the Monster's massive size They already knew that the nue body, but still, they weren't prepared just how ridiculously high it would be in reality
No, this wasn't sih number of tentacles The information clearly stated that the japanese Boss raid only required three Highest Tier Knights back then However, this teahts, as well as four Wizards ranked B, yet…
”Kkeuhk!!”
Unfortunately, in this kind of situation, holding doubts of the Monster's true strength was a luxury none of the Knights could afford
The tentacles rushed in like a hailstor them time to take a breather It was a mistake to believe that its eyes were the weak point, as the Monster bird accurately intercepted the Knights even after losing its eyesight
'How can this be…?' (Kim Yu-Rin)
The total number of tentacles sliced off already exceeded ten thousand However, no matter how many they cut, the number didn't seem to decrease at all
There was no opening in the tentacles pouring down like raindrops from the sky, and conversely, there was no chance for a counterattack as well On top of this, these da the Knights' bodies, which even e forward an impossibility, too
'No one said these things can eat away our Mana barriers!!'
Kiritted her teeth as she cut down yet more tentacles
She had initially underestimated this Monster - since the tentacles were the part of the creature, with the activation of her Trait, she believed it would not take very long to bring this damn bird down at all
But thinking like that was clearly a mistake
Those tentacles were not the part of the Monster bird but a separate entity altogether The proof was the fact that the huge Monster still re even after she imbued the purpose of ”faint even for a little bit of ti it
It was most likely that these tentacles were either parasites or symbiotes that lived off the main body
”…damn it!!”
Her roughly-swung sword strike drew a crescent shaped arc and sliced through countless tentacles, yet more replaced them
”Everyone, retreat!!”
Kied to travel to the others through the gaps of the attacking tentacles, but too bad, none of theetaway It simply took their all just to defend themselves from all these tentacles, after all
And so, it proved that even Yu-Rin herself couldn't make any follow-up orders in the end as well
SFX for the crow of a rooster
That was because her consciousness shook into disarray for a short s
”…Kkheuck!”
Seizing this opening, a tentacle bit into her body But Yu-Rin si shoulder with Mana and continued to wield her sword
She hadn't given up, but still, the situation was easy to figure out
The flow of the battle was disadvantageous, and they couldn't even safely retreat anymore - the worst of all worst situations
As the despair crept into the hts present here and their defeat beco ever so a certainty…
From somewhere, a loud and powerful roar assaulted them A familiar roar, it sure sounded like the call of salvation to Kim Yu-Rin's ears
Kkwaaahang!!
Along with the roar, a massive shock wave traveled from the direction of North East and s towards the Monster bird's main body
- Kkieeck!!
It struck the creature The Monster bird issued a short cry and retracted all of its tentacles, and that in turn gave all the Knights here valuable time
”…Haah”
<>
The Knights quickly turned to look towards the direction of theto rein in their rough breaths At that moment, no one had a clue what to say
Not one, not two, but dozens and dozens of Orcs were busy rushi+ng over here while raising a cloud of dust
”Ah…”
And Yu-Rin inadvertently let out a gasp after seeing the sight of the Hero Orc a with a remarkably heroic aura
It was such a cool appearance
