Chapter 26
Chapter 26: THE THIRD
The Twin-head Ogre used a blunt weapon to smash a group of people. The Twin-head Ogre, the third boss, strike them with unfathomable strength. It was confident that it can kill these puny weaklings.
*baam!! *
However, the smash has been blocked. Kalman summoned a crimson shield, his Awakening Skill. His defense type Skill is good in Tanking. He protected his teammates from the frontal assault.
"Roar!!!"
When the Ogre realized that its attack didn't hurt them. Its other head casts a spell. A fireball. This Fire Ball measure 2 meters and produce a big explosion, but Kalman didn't waver. He took all of the attacks without stepping back.
"Hal-Sung! I will leave everything to you!!"
Kalman tanked the Ogre and used his shield to block the Fire Ball. The Ogre's spell casting was the best opportunity to counter-attack.
This was the right time to kill the Boss since it has no defense.
*whoosh!! *
Kim Hal-Sung controlled his dozen swords to kill the Twin-head Orge. His targets were the two heads of it. He unleashed his attack and!!!
*stab!*
He successfully stabbed the two heads. He used his sharpest blades to kill the Twin Head. The Ogre lost its life and fell, and blood splattered around.
Monster Boss may have been strong. They have destructive Skills, but their weakness is that they are predictable.
When casting their Skill, they become vulnerable to any attack. This is the best time to kill them!
*thud*
The Ogre died just like that. Monsters were cunning, but humans were more cunning. They can solve any problems that they meet. Humanity may have been weak, but they can find solutions using their intelligence.
"Yay!!!"
The people cheer and shout. They scream their happiness and jump around.
They successfully kill the Third Boss. Now, they only need three more months to live here. After that, they can return to their homes.
The leaders made a decision to inform all of their members about the possible return.
"At last, another Boss died!! We only need three more months to return back on Earth!!"
"Hahahaha"
They found hope in this dark tunnel. They now have the reason to survive and live. They found their way to get back home.
In this Boss fight. Only small numbers of people died and many survived the wave. How can they die when they've found the answer?
Three months after the Awakening, people cheered their loudest. They celebrate the accomplishment that they work hard to achieve.

The ability to control dozen of swords. Lee Hal-Sung, as a Korean, he knows how to use a sword, he is a sword practitioner. He's a 25-year-old bachelor whose hobby is Kendo.
When he was summoned in this Awakening Event. He didn't think that he would gain a Skill about controlling many swords. He has mixed emotions when he learned it.
Control not use. He can control the sword to levitate but when he touched it, he lost the ability to command the sword.
"Sigh. Since I can't touch the sword and only use it by my mind. I guess I'll train my brain? How about meditation? Can it increase my sword control?"
He realized that when he practice meditation, he found it easy to control the sword. He easily mastered the Skill. Perhaps meditation was a good idea. Now he can control 15 swords at the same time.
Currently, he wanted to use his swords to fly. It's a childish dream. However, in this fantasy- RPG world, nothing is impossible.
He saw many supernatural phenomena. He believed that flying was not hard to achieve.
"Flying is one of my dreams. To fly using a sword is a cool dream, yeah. It's one of men's (young ones) dream."
Now, he is practicing how to fly with the help of his sword. He used it as a board.
For now, he can only float for 3 seconds. He always falls after that.
Flying is still an impossible dream, for now.

He experienced the suffering inside the Punishment. He saw how the strong harm the weak. He witnessed how the men raped the women. At that time, he was still irresolute and he couldn't find his conviction. He didn't have an offensive-type power. He only has his Shield. He can only protect himself.
However, his view changed when he saw a group of people harassing a child. He couldn't accept it. He decided to stand up and confront them. They beat Kalman but he never backed down, he stood straight and lifted his shield. People saw his bravery and help him.
After that, people started to gather around him. They decided to build their group to protect each other.
Kalman has a calm gaze. He stared at the people who are doing their everyday routine.

"To protect them. I'll become stronger"
