Chapter 72: Reinforcements are here
72- Reinforcements are here
‘ding’
‘(Red lancer sword) has been added to the Attire 1 slot.’
‘As the (Attire 1) is in use, would you like to equip the (Red lancer sword)?’
‘(YES) or (NO)’
I quickly pressed on ‘Yes’ button and the ‘Red lancer sword’ appeared in my hand.
At the same time the everyone stopped laughing and the bald guy made his move by trying to grab Armelia, with his right hand.
This was my chance.
I reacted quickly, and I activated ‘Stealth’ skill and the ‘Quick sword slash’ ability.
From his right side, I slashed my sword toward the neck of bald guy. Because he is using right arm to grab Armelia, he has a created a blind spot for himself. And as he is focused in grabbing Armelia, the chances of him noticing me is very less. Plus, I have activated the ‘Stealth’ skill. Which increases my chance of sneak attacking him.
My speed was fast, but somehow the bald was able to react and I missed the chance to behead him. Maybe as a reflex, he raised his right hand to block and but he did not know that he was trying to block a sword with his hand.
And unsurprisingly, his right hand got chopped of. But I did not stop my attack, I quickly turned and followed another attack by slashing from above. I don’t know if it was luck or his skill; but somehow, he squatted and side jumped. And again, avoided a fatal blow, but he was still a little late because his leg was still in line with sword I slashed. And it also got chopped off.
All of these actions were completed within a second and my speed decreased. Which means the effect of ‘Quick sword slash’ has ended.
Seeing that my both my attacks have failed and also the ‘Quick sword slash’ has ended, I felt frustrated. Because the ‘Quick sword slash’ doubles my speed for a second and when I activated it, my speed was around 700 and I still was not able to kill the bald guy. Although, this speed should have killed him at least 10 times, but he was still alive. Maybe this is what people call fluke.
But I still managed to chop off his one hand and one leg.
Since, he was in a daze and his limbs are missing, it would hard to dodge another attack. So, I jumped high in the air and went for a stab with the sword. But just as the sword was about to pierce the bald guy, someone pulled him back and the sword was stabbed into the ground.
I looked at the guy who pulled him and found that it was the Demi-human stage guy, under the bald guy.
Just as I was about to follow with another attack, few Evolver stage men came in between the bald guy and I.
But I still dashed forward without any heed or hesitation.
Originally, they were of no match to me. But if they grouped up and attacked, then it was totally a different thing. But due to the addition of, ‘Red Lancer Sword’ and the ‘Wind Walker’ shoes, my stats are in a whole different level.
Hence, my speed was fast and two of the Evolver stage guys were unable to react and they were beheaded.

‘Level up’
‘Obtained 80 Free stat Points and 3 extra Free stat Points for levelling up 2 times consecutively.’
‘Another 32 Free stat Points have been stored because (Agility), (Defense), (Sense) and (Resistance) stats have touched the safety limit. If required, host can add those to the different stats, but it is advisable to the host not to proceed with damaging the body further.’
I ignored the level up messages and the fact that I received another bunch of ‘Free stat points’.
I continued moving towards the bald guy who was being carried away by the demi-human stage guy.
By seeing how easily I beheaded the two Evolver stage humans, others were hesitating and in that hesitation the distance between me and the bald guy decreased.
Seeing that the Demi-human stage guy is acting like an annoying fly, I took out a spear from the ‘Storage box’ and threw it with full force towards the Demi-stage guy. And I activated ‘Sprint’ skill and followed.
The Demi-human stage guy was startled by the attack and as any normal human being would react, he prioritized saving himself the foremost. And I took advantage of this, instantly arrived near the duo (the bald guy and the Demi-human stage guy).
Without wasting any time, I quickly slashed at the bald guy and not the Demi-human stage guy, because I decided not to waste my time with the underling and especially the cliché scenes that follow - when the MC tries killing some bad guy and all the underlings try delaying and they do succeed. And just as the MC feels that he can kill the bad guy and get done with this, but suddenly someone interferes and new drama takes place.
The Bald guy looked at me and the sword heading towards his neck with despair in his eyes. And before he knew it, his head slid slowly and fell on the ground. The despair was still seen on his face.

========================================
Let's make a few goals.
Mass Release on Monday:
100 Power stones = 2 Chapters
120 Power stones = 3 Chapters
140 Power stones = 4 Chapters
(Only if I reach this goal, will I be Mass releasing the chapters. Because I have started working in a company, and am tired when I return home. So, If I could see your support through this, I can reassure myself that ‘Yeah, I can still work on this novel and can also start new works’ for my readers.)
