Chapter 138 (1/2)

Ch 138 — I, Mukouda-san Am Also The Greatest!

I peeked into the immense boss room… which was, not surprisingly, full of immense boss monsters. There were large Trolls and Minotaurs aplenty but as the leader of Tempest had warned us, the three Spriggans at the centre of the mob were even larger.

“The Spriggans, they’re so big…” I mumbled unconsciously, amazed at just how large they were. They must be 5 metres tall, each of them. How do you beat a monster that huge?

“Dora, Sui, let’s go.” Fer ordered, shouldering me to one side as he entered the boss room.

“Yeah big guy, right behind you.” Dora-chan flew in behind Fer’s back, ready for a fight.

“Okay-” even darling battle maniac Sui-chan was eager to engage these monsters.

That left just me standing outside the door, alone. I looked around, not sure what to do now. Wait here by myself? Follow them? Go back to the safe room? They wouldn’t care or even notice if I wasn’t with them. Uh…

“Ah…” I’d go in too, I decided. Swallowing hard and holding the Mithril short sword that Sui had made, I entered the boss room behind the three battle maniacs.

“Gugaaahh-”

“Gooaaaa-”

“Bumooo-”

A pandemonium of wounded and dying monsters filled the boss room. Fer, Dora-chan and Sui-chan were going wild, battling like crazy, never stopping or giving the ferocious monsters a chance to defend themselves never mind launch any kind of attack. I watched as Fer’s wind magic burst through the ranks of giant figures, knocking them to the sides and breaking bones. Dora-chan was buzzing around launching lightning magic everywhere while adroitly avoiding the wild sluggish swings of the monster’s weapons. Sui-chan was pyong-pyonging at one side of the room bombarding the distracted monsters with sizzling Acid Bullets. The monsters were getting their asses kicked in a thorough fashion.

“Gooahhh!” Thump thump thump. The sudden roar and vibrations of the stone floor caught my attention. What? A Troll was lumbering towards me. I looked back at the door but decided not to run for it, instead I firmly gripped the Mithril short sword’s hilt.
