Chapter 151 - 150 – Did Someone Invade?
Falling into that crowd of monsters, I broke out in a cold sweat and smiled as I got up and prepared for battle.
Looking up the hill below, I noticed that that armor was already gone, so I took advantage of this situation to use all my strength to try to get away from here as quickly as possible.
I don\'t know what that thing was, or what army he works for, but I\'ll be in trouble if I stay here.
"Let\'s have fun." Within seconds, thousands of monsters approached me at once. A large ogre jumped towards me with its mouth open, small goblins appeared with swords in hand to hit me.
And those little men who looked like goblins began to prepare some kind of magic to play on me.
"I won\'t let you do what you want." With the mana coming out of my hand and merging with my sword, a great flame began to force itself onto the blade of my sword.
The monsters were a little scared but didn\'t back away.
The monsters that were now three feet away, tried to attack me, but with my sword covered in fire, I spun my body 360° and hit all the monsters that were around me.
All the monsters around me were hit by a blazing flame that burned their bodies enough to kill them in just a second.
Now I had more room to move.
Continuing with the fire magic on my sword, I kicked the ground and flew forward towards the monsters while swinging my sword and a large amount of fire burned the monsters in front of me.
I continued swinging my sword as my mana quickly drained.
This went on for another 5 minutes before I felt my body starting to get tired. My amount of mana wasn\'t as big as I thought, or maybe this attack uses up a lot more mana than it should.
With my magic disabled, I started to be surrounded by monsters again, but I didn\'t give up and moved on.
In just a second, I advanced towards a large Orc who held a large wooden club. He raised his arm to try to hit me, but his club came down and hit the ground directly.
I had disappeared and then reappeared again, thrusting my sword into his chest.
The Orc fell, but I didn\'t have time to rest.
With his friend being killed, other nearby Orcs approached to challenge me as they ran over the smaller monsters. They all held big wooden clubs and tried to hit me.
But his movements were slow and awkward.
With quick movements, I dodged their attacks and then cut their bellies and breasts with ease. Of course, during this battle, the little monsters wouldn\'t leave me alone, but they were weaker.
Oncoming goblins were easily killed, weak monsters that even an ordinary citizen could handle if it wasn\'t a large group.
And so my battle continued. I had opened a small arena where the monsters were approaching to face me, but with each passing minute, this "Arena" was getting smaller with the impatience of the monsters.
Before long I started being attacked from all sides at once.
Orcs and Ogres with their incredible strength tried to hit me, but I avoided their attacks while cutting as much of them as I could, but because of that, the monsters like goblins had time to hit me.
Over time, small cuts appeared on my body. They were cuts made with rusty swords and they didn\'t cause deep wounds, but I could get an infection.
The monsters I had seen before, which had a "helmet" over their bodies, would turn into a ball and spin towards me under the legs of the bigger monsters.
They were fast, so they often I couldn\'t avoid their attacks, so I got kick-like blows to my body. There were a lot of them, but I couldn\'t kill them with my magic or my sword.
Their protection was too strong.
"Haaa" As I dodged simultaneous attacks from two ogres, I swung my sword and ripped both of their arms off. The blood that spilled from his torn arms spilled onto the smaller monsters nearby, leaving their eyesight impaired.
Taking advantage of this situation, I gave strong kicks towards the heads of the goblins and small horned men while ducking to avoid one of the balls that flew towards my head.
I was getting attack from different parts, my body was deteriorating over time and I was very tired.
I looked around while still swinging my sword, and noticed that the number of monsters didn\'t seem to have decreased one bit even though I had already gone up 5 levels.
Even though I tried to keep moving towards the hill to get out of here, it was like I couldn\'t move forward at all.
\'Oh dammit, if this goes on like this I\'m going to die for sure, I think I\'d better give it my all and get out of here as soon as possible.\'
"It\'s better to stop playing for a bit...Urg" I said as I took an attack from another monster that had turned into a ball. Surely my body will be sore for days after this battle.
Right after that, I activated all my abilities.
[Small Resistance against Magic]
[Small resistance against physical attacks]
[Small Status Increase]
[ Wind speed ]
And finally, I also activated the [Goddess\'s Blessing] That I had received a while ago. Before it had taken a while to activate, but this time it was an immediate activation.
"Ahahahahaha, look at this." I laughed as I felt my body grow hot and brim with magic. My body started to completely heal.
"This must be the effect of the goddess\'s blessing, I have to take a closer look at its effects later."
Feeling this sensation, I looked at my Status to see how it was, and as a result, my eyes sparkled.
[Status]
Name: Noah
Level: 26
Race: Human
Age: 13
Strength: 712 + 712 + 71
Agility: 602 + 602 + 60 + 180
Magic: 1569 + 1569 + 156
My attributes had increased in a completely absurd way. I knew the [Small Status Increase] increased all my stats by 10% and the [Wind Speed] skill increased my Agility by 30%, but what the hell is this?
Does the goddess\'s blessing increase everything by 100%? This is insane, this is completely broken, is this correct?
\'Maybe that\'s why last time I felt my body so light and strong after activating this ability. Thank you, goddess.\' A smile spread across my face and my heart pounded.
All my attributes were now above 1000.
And with that, my will to fight practically increased by 100% too.
So with just one simple word.
"Burn." A large wall of flame appeared around me and then lurched toward the surrounding monsters, turning each one to gray in seconds.
[ You have leveled up - Current level 27 ]
[ You received 10 skill points ]
"Time to start the massacre." All this strength would last for a while longer, I at least want to use as much as I can to raise my level.
But I can\'t lose control, I have to know the right time to get out of here.

Less than a mile away, Beastled\'s commander was lying on a mattress placed in one of the tents, finally getting some rest after so long. Leaving command of the army to his Deputy Commander, he felt confident sleeping.
But when he was close to falling asleep, he heard someone\'s voice calling him.
A little impatient, he got to his feet and stared at the tent door as he grunted.
"What is it now? I\'m trying to sleep because it\'ll soon be dawn."
"I\'m sorry sir, but something happened."
"What happened that was so important?" Unwilling to talk, the commander threw himself in the mattress and waited for the soldier to respond.
"Looks like someone invaded our army, one of the king\'s guards found him."
"Has someone invaded our army? But if the king\'s guard found him, he must be dead already, isn\'t he?"
"The guard said he took care of him and that he\'s probably already dead."
"Probably? Is he not sure?" The commander, losing patience, got up from the mattress and put on his shoe. Leaving the tent, he went to the biggest tent where was where the Vice Commander was.
As he walked, he decided to ask the soldier who accompanied him a few questions.
"Has the soldier I sent to the capital returned?"
"No sir, maybe he\'ll be here in a few hours."
"Damn, the capital is not that far from here. He should have gotten here a long time ago. Tsk." Clicking his tongue, he entered the tent.
"So what happened? Who invaded?" The commander found one of the guards inside and his Vice Commander who was talking to him.
"Looks like it was just one person, but the guard here seems to have dealt with him." The Vice Commander said confidently.
The guard nodded in confirmation.
"Are you sure about that? Did you go back there to look at what was going on?"
With the commander\'s question, the guard didn\'t make any kind of gesture. Seeing this, the commander looked annoyed: "So you didn\'t look. You should go back there now and see if this person is dead.. I have a bad feeling about this."
