Chapter 46: Dont care about them! (1/2)
Before the fight could take place, Michu suddenly turned around. Within his eyes, a reflection of the witch spread. As he smiled, Michu called her out, ”Sandra! Fight with me!” Fortunately for the witch, Michu didn't use any ambiguous words.
The crowd was so big Sandra had been feeling like she was in the stadium!
”Isn't it your battle?” She awkwardly replied, avoiding eye contact.
The monke raised his eyes, wondering what'd happened. Many whispers spread across the crowd, locking their eyes on Sandra. It looked like she became smaller and less significant and no smile could be seen on her.
Finally, Michu understood something, ”Sandra! Just ignore them!” The crowd's eyes would be the same as the viewers' eyes, so the video Michu wanted to make would hurt Sandra if she were really conscious of others.
In his life, Michu had faced many people and he learned how to ignore them. He even sometimes responded to the insults. However, he never backed off if someone spoke badly about his family!
Sandra's anxiousness felt familiar, so under many players' eyes, Michu turned heels and approached her, ”Tomorrow, they will all forget about us.” He smiled, ”Do you remember the faces of each bystander?” It was valuable advice that Michu kept close to his heart. It was given to him by Nana. ”I am sure she would be happy if she knew that it helped you too. Nana likes you!”
Feeling her hands held by the rough monke's hands, Sandra raised her eyes and looked at him while biting her lips. She would have never expected that the monke would gather this much attention; at least on early levels.
It was different from the dungeon where parties were split and every player's eyes were forced to look around cautiously.
In this place, the crowd either looked at them or the Sword Mistress.
Some even already began to complain that Yakuzan had been waiting for too long!
”It's impossible, Michu... My heart can't take it,” Sandra shook her head and replied dejectedly. She hid her face beneath her hat and even closed her eyes while still feeling Michu's hands.
The monke was at a loss of words, but as sensitive as he was, Michu knew he couldn't press further. He left the last words, ”I hope you will stay here and watch me! I have been looking at others' deeds and battles for most of my life, so I also want to become someone that people can look at. I don't like being leech! And I want my friend to enjoy our quests! Hehe!”
”I won't blink. I promise this,” Sandra replied and Michu smiled widely.
”It's a promise!”
After Michu returned to the Azure Lake, he took out his spear and faced Yakuzan who nodded to him.
Though anger glazed his monkey's eyes, the monkey boss had never lost his composure. He was ready to exchange ferocious punches and jabs with his opponent! However, the staff made Yakuzan's eyes turn serious.
It felt like a weapon that perfectly suited Michu.
A weird dangerous sense swirled his heart and the bonk's strength flashed briefly within his mind.
Yakuzan puffed his chest and rushed forth! He shook all his fear, leaving cautiousness and zealous drive to beat down the enemy that had read through his movement!
Michu's legs bent, then his staff took off like a rocket. He didn't display his ability yet, but laced his weapon with the bonk's ability! The terrifying force behind this bonk and its visual appearance forcefully reminded Yakuzan about the previous blow.
It startled him and his steps stopped.
On the other hand, Michu's legs, once on the move, would never stop until strength escaped him or his opponent perished. He appeared first while carrying an advantage and thrust his staff straight into Yakuzan's face.
The monke belatedly answered, his body stumbling behind.
However, the Azure Lake abruptly screamed as if it never expected Michu's blow to be that strong.
[-1240 HP! Critical Strike!]
