Chapter 3 - A terrible truth

*** 5 minutes ago, The border zone of the giant forest ***

The black-robed guy was crouching at the peak of one of the last giant trees at the end of the forest, observing in the distance.

From the end of the forest, there was a huge desert that reached far and wide. And actually, this huge forest was located in the very center of the huge desert.

"Wh…When…will…yo…u…leave…that…keep, Oni…memb…er…" The man who muttered to himself was in indescribable pain every time he used his vocal cords.

He was observing the great Keep in the distance, ready to attack. A majestic keep surrounded by a slender and graceful water dragon circling…

"ARRRGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!"

"HELPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!!"

"HELP USSSSSSSS!!!!!!!"

He suddenly began to hear painful human cries from the depths of the forest. And he quickly turned around and started to jump over the giant trees in the direction of the sound… One by one.

He wasn't sure if he could catch up in time as the voices came from quite a distance, but he still continued to advance at a superhuman speed. As he continued to run and jump, he saw from the left distance that two objects were speeding in that direction.

Looking carefully without slowing down, he realized that these were 2 Manticore monsters and frowned, increasing his speed even more. And he was able to reach the area where the screams came from in three minutes.

Because he was 50 meters above the ground, he could only see the ground for a second through the tree trunks. A monster that he knew to be Kamaitachi by its color and size, and a few people before him…

Without stopping, he reached the top of the tree closest to them and dived straight down, pulling one of the 6 daggers hanging from his back and pointing it forward.

[Knight's Sword has been equipped]

He descended from the sky and stabbed Knight's Sword into Kamaitachi's head.

"GRRROOOOOOOAAAAARGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!" Kamaitachi slammed its head back hard, full of anger rather than pain, and smashed him on its head to the ground.

However, he did not hit the ground, but rather slammed his knees hard on the ground and slid back tens of meters in a controlled manner along with the dust clouds.

Slid back tens of meters in a controlled manner and stopped. Then he slowly stood up and pointed the scrap sword he was holding menacingly toward Kamaitachi.

He took a quick glance at the people around him who were watching him and the monster in fear.

The monster and the guy continued to stare at each other menacingly…

"G…" "Ge…" It was clear that the man was in pain for some reason as he spoke. "Get… back…" With a soft and dim voice, he called out to the people on the battlefield in the forest. "I… will… do… it… so… solo…"

Hina, the man next to her, the youth standing in front of Kamaitachi, and the others were looking at the newly appeared guy with eyes full of fear and curiosity.

A vision suddenly appeared and disappeared before Hina's eyes. An image that is transparent and has symbols written in a strange alphabet that is unfamiliar to her.

"What was that!?" she asked, wondering.

"Ah, did you also see it? I do not know, we have probably had a mirage with terms specific to this world."

In fact, this screen was a stats table that appeared in front of the relevant players when a war started and gave information about the powers of the parties to the war, but since the group had just reached this world, they were not yet adapted.

The black-robed guy began to sprint toward Kamaitachi.

Kamaitachi initially built a symbolic wall in front of its head with its giant red wings. And as soon as its enemy approached it with the dagger in his hand, it drew back its wings again and sprayed a large amount of venom on him from between its giant teeth.

The guy accelerated his running speed and bent his body to the ground, rushing under the mass of poison that was coming towards him, reaching under Kamaitachi's chin.

Realizing that a dagger was going to be stabbed under its chin by the enemy, Kamaitachi tried to strike him repeatedly with its giant wings, lifting its chin to the sky and out of range of the dagger.

"T..oo…slo…w" The black-robed man suddenly appeared above Kamaitachi's head and slammed the Knight's Sword into Kamaitachi's neck.

This time, however, Kamaitachi acted faster and fled back a few meters with supernatural speed. Immediately after that, it jumped forward again, smashing two giant teeth into the back of its human enemy, who had not yet fallen from the sky to the ground.

Even though it wasn't 100% successful, Kamaitachi was able to smash one of his teeth into the enemy's shoulder, who was falling headlong to the ground.

"T..oo…slo…w" Even though the black-robed man had been bitten in the back by the monster, it was actually a trap he had set. Because as the monster stabbed its tooth in his back, he at the same time swung another dagger that he had taken in his other hand towards the back that he could not see, and with his instinct, he managed to stab the monster in the cheek.

"Act…ivat…e…five…stars…D…Drago…n…Sp..ear!"

Despite his pain, he gave a command to unlock the skills of the red dagger in his hand. And then he fell to the ground, powerless…

Lights shaped like stars that appeared on a dark night formed on the upper surface of the steel of the dagger, pouring in through the slit in the monster's neck.

"GRGRGRGRAAAAAAAAAARRRRGGGFGFGFGFG!!!!" The monster roared loudly again, but this time there was only pain in its voice. Because this time it was different. The power flowing into its body through this new dagger stuck in its throat was absorbing its energy, weakening its strength.

It fell to its knees and then swung giant front claws down its own throat, attempting to strike out the dagger.

"T…o…o…sl…ow…." The black-robed guy gathered his strength again and jumped into the air. As soon as he reached Kamaitachi's neck level, he spun around several times and accelerated, giving the hilt of the Dragon Spear a very hard rotary kick.

The spear completely stuck inside the monster's neck and tried to spin inside, severing Kamaitachi's neck, and causing its head to fall to the ground.

The black-robed guy had succeeded in killing Kamaitachi…
