There Was a Porter Who Would One Day Be Called a Prophet

45 – Newbie Cutter

A time when the moon rises and only the cries of animals can be heard.

It was hard to believe that this was an inhabited village because the villagers went into their houses and didn’t even make a sound.

– Hurray.

We set fire to the perch around us to secure our view, and we were very nervous with the boss fight right in front of us.

“You all know the plan, right?”

Nod.

At my words, the heads of the party members moved up and down in silence.

Still, these guys are a warrior party.

Unlike before, I was a little reassured by my serious appearance.

“Saintess, please give me a buff.”

“Yes Brother. Strength. Bless. Ghostrick Indure. Saintric Touch.”

She seems sincere too. She started putting every buff she knew.

Even if the buff efficiency is low, it’s better than nothing.

“Doesn’t this seem like the first time you’ve gone all out like this?”

“That’s a tough opponent, right?”

The party members all gather their mouths and express their feelings.

I couldn’t lose either.

‘With the Saint’s buff, I can become the strongest porter….’

Let’s strengthen our fists with the thought of what if I become too strong.

… ?

Kuuk kuk kook.

When I folded my hands and then opened them again, my body just felt refreshed, but there was no dramatic change.

Kwak.

Even though I picked up a stone that fell on the ground and gave it strength, instead of turning it into powder, only my hand still hurts.

A dog-like world for real.

I would have thought that if there had been no change, the buff would not have been applied.

It seemed as if the whole world was laughing at me, saying, “Where do you think of enjoying buffs in another world?”

“Brother? Why is that expression on your face?”

Polaris innocently asks about this situation.

“It’s nothing…”

I repeated while stroking the bottle containing the precious holy water that I kept in my arms.

‘Even if I don’t have a buff, I can use this if I have to.’

There was no more time to waste. Because the duration of the buff is still running.

“Then let’s try it somewhere.”

“Yes.”

The moment the hero steps out towards the exit of the village at my signal.

-Clap.

With the sound of metal clashing, a headless knight appeared from the darkness.

“That’s Dullahan…”

The warrior murmured softly.

Unlike the blurry human figure, the metal sound he heard whenever he moved was horrifyingly clear.

A piece of armor with rust and cracks here and there.

Compared to the appearance of the sword that was about half broken in the right hand, it was quite hideous compared to its appearance.

More than half of them were wearing a shattered shield on their left arm as if in confrontation with a sword.

– A clap.

Dyurahan stopped in place and blocked the exit. As if it couldn’t go any further than this.

Is it an illusion to feel that cold gazes are staring at us even though we don’t have a neck?

“Everyone move according to plan!”

As the hero gave instructions from the front, Reina stood in front as if protecting me, followed by Talia. Polaris took a position in the middle.

“Reina!”

“Pierce!”

The battle started with a single arrow.

-Ting.

Reina’s skill flew by surprise and hit the target, but the arrow could not pierce even her old armor, despite her penetrating ability.

“It’s as I’ve heard, but I didn’t expect it to be this much…”

Reina frowns when she sees that her own arrows aren’t working.

Dyurahan hesitated for a moment, but there was no damage.

-Clap!

Dyurahan, now completely hostile, fixed her sword and rushed at Reina, who fired the first attack.

“Pierce!”

Several arrows flew towards the running Dyurahan, but she did not lose her momentum as she received them all as if they were itchy.

“Your opponent is me!”

-Kang!

When the holy sword of the blocking hero collided with the broken sword, sparks flew between them and colored the surroundings brightly for an instant.

Durahan’s appearance, which was revealed in an instant, was reminiscent of dried bloodstains as the rusted part was shaded.

-Kagagak!

At first glance, the strength of the warrior and Dyurahan seems to be equal, but unlike the opponent holding the sword with one hand, the warrior is holding on with both hands.

In that state, it is almost certain that the hero will be exhausted and fall out first.

Maybe he knew that too, just fighting swords against each other, waiting for the hero’s strength to wear off.

‘This is not good….’

That guy, a headless subject, moves with reason ahead of instinct.

Unexpectedly, the alarm bell rang at the calm appearance of Dyurahan.

At least, I was able to confirm that the hero wasn’t completely defeated by him, so it’s not a bad situation for an exploration battle.

“Miss Thalia!”

“Prison!”

Small force fields were created under its feet, restricting its movement.

“Haap!”

As soon as he checks the force field made by Talia, the warrior kicks at Dyurahan.

-f*ck!

Durahan, who was hit by it, lost his balance and fell backwards, and he swung the holy sword toward his upper body as he slid the sword he was facing.

Although the attack seemed to flow naturally like water flowing.

– Ppaak!

Durahan, who supported the ground with a shield, rotated backwards as if standing on a handstand, and at the same time inserted his foot into the warrior’s chin.

“Keugh!”

Fortunately, he twisted his head the moment he got hit, so he didn’t take much damage.

“Healing!”

Polaris supports by using non-healing skills.

Even if the consumption of holy power is large, the warrior’s physical strength must be fully filled.

If he were to fall down, there would be no one who could defend against Dyurahan’s attack.

-Clap clap clap.

Perhaps he has become more cautious now, instead of recklessly entering the range, Dyurahan hovers around the hero and waits for an opportunity.

It might use a pattern, so don’t let it go your way.

‘If you don’t come, I’ll force you to come.’

“Saintess! Please renew the buff!”

When Polaris started to apply the buff again, Dyurahan immediately rushed towards the saintess.

Certainly, rather than the hero in front of you, it looks like you are aiming for the back row more blatantly.

“Prison!”

Thalia once again hit the force field to stop the bastard’s movement.

Whack.

After confirming that the force field was forming, Dyurahan suddenly changed direction.

What is it? Where is that kid

– Tadat.

Rather, the guy used the generated force field as a stepping stone, then turned and jumped toward the hero, not Polaris.

– Bang!

As the body weight was put on the force of the blow from top to bottom, the defender’s foot dug into the ground.

“I thought I wouldn’t be able to respond, but I didn’t expect to use it in reverse…”

Originally, Talia’s ability to expand her Prison skill was unusable when facing Dullahan.

Because she was hoping to get stuck on that one.

‘Experience in inducing skills and changing goals at the same time, taking an advantageous position.’

“This won’t be easy…”

Now, the first priority is to get the hero out of a disadvantageous situation.

“Reina-san, that!”

“Pierce!”

An arrow flying towards him once more.

Hearing the sound of Reina’s chant, the hero rolled to the side and left his seat.

Although Dyurahan swung his sword at the hero while ignoring the arrows.

-Kwaang!

Unlike before, the arrow pierced him with a heavy sound.

I could see her arrowheads shining as she pulled the string beside her.

“I didn’t expect to be using it already.”

I remembered the conversation I had with Reina before entering the battle.

– If you put holy water on the arrowhead, you will be able to inflict damage.

-I can be of some help. That’s good.

-Still, hit him with an ordinary arrow for the first shot.

-Didn’t you say that there was no damage? What does that mean?

-You’ll know when you see the reaction, but once you know that it’s okay to get hit, you’ll just ignore it a few times. When the enemy is in danger or the enemy is careless, it is a single shot with an arrow coated with holy water.

It was worth trying to use Reina somehow.

-Clap clap clap….

It was a small amount of holy water, but Dyurahan staggered as if he had suffered significant damage.

In the meantime, the hero was able to straighten his posture.

Durahan, which shows a more colorful response than the game, seemed to have doubled the difficulty level.

“Are you okay, warrior!”

“It’s okay!”

‘If it goes well, I had the idea to put in Polaris and finish it all at once….’

It’s not going well, and the guy’s pattern hasn’t been confirmed yet.

“Mr. Reina! We have to give her even a little bit of damage!”

“Okay!”

As the arrows drenched in holy water flew in, he began to run towards the hero even though he was hit.

‘Have you noticed that if you approach a hero, he can’t shoot an arrow… !’

It is different from the past when there was no intellect or force.

No matter how newbie cutting machine, artificial intelligence wasn’t this far.

-Kagang!

The two collided once again, but a different aspect unfolded.

– Puck! Puff!

This time, as if he had made up his mind, he went into a hand-to-hand fight using even the shield in his left hand.

Perhaps it was too much to avoid all of them while blocking the sword with both hands, but as the blows gradually accumulated, the warrior’s posture collapsed.

‘I think it’s going to be really big… !’

As I rolled my head impatiently, I remembered what the guy had just shown me.

“Talia-san! Prison to the hero!”

“What? You mean to cut down the hero?!”

“Not the one I learned from you, but the original one! Hurry up because there’s no time!”

“Oh, okay! Prison!”

As expected, when the warrior’s feet fell off the ground after being hit by his shield, Dullahan didn’t miss it and knocked it down with force.

– Wedge!

The moment when the blow that was being swung towards the fallen hero cut through the wind.

-Kwajik!

Before Durahan’s sword reached the hero, a force field created by a short shot surrounded the hero and took his blow instead.

“It took me 10 years…”

I just wanted to see him step on the station field, so I tried it as soon as possible. I’m really glad

Even though it was destroyed in one shot, it’s a benefit since we were able to save the hero.

Sweeping my heart out in surprise, I analyzed the situation.

‘Anyway, even though I pushed myself to this extent, I didn’t use a pattern.’

Not using it even when you can use it is not prudent, it is stupid. However, the movement Dyurahan showed was far from stupid.

‘That means….’

6 Patterns were eliminated from the candidates one by one.

If it was swordsmanship, I would have kept my distance, but it didn’t matter since he kept attacking me.

Since the hero did not allow the party members to access Shadow Movement, you can apply it as soon as he disappears.

If the other 3 patterns also stick to that situation, they don’t suit you.

Then there is only one pattern left.

‘Damn it! All in all… !’

When the pattern with the largest variable was nominated, he hurriedly shouted at the warrior.

“Hero! Get away from him immediately!”

But the hero didn’t hear me, so he took the opportunity to pull his sword to his chest after the attack.

“Haaagh!”

The warrior’s thrust aimed at the fleeting moment rushed toward Dyurahan.

If it was an ordinary opponent, that judgment might have been correct. If an attack goes in, it can do a lot of damage.

– A clap.

If you go in.

As if he had waited, Dyurahan raised his shield according to the timing of the thrust.

Under normal circumstances, the Holy Sword would be able to shatter that worn-out shield without incident, but the stance he is taking right now is….

-Kwaang!

When the tip of the holy sword touched the shield, the warrior flew helplessly with a roar.
