Surviving the Game as a Barbarian – 55



Episode 55: Witch’s Forest (2)

Neat features and voluptuous body.

And the tickling voice added to it.

Elisa had an appearance that most men would readily like.

At least until one second ago.

“Eh Elisha!”

The moment Hans C’s eyes widened.

A woman with a slender figure about 160 cm tall falls to her floor.

dump.

Sunken temples.

Excessively protruding eyeballs.

Even crimson blood spurted out like a water gun from where the ear hole should be.

Elisha no longer looked so pretty.

“What on earth are you doing…!”

Hans C who witnessed her miserable appearance shouted in a shocked voice.

“Why! Why did you harm Elisha! “What did we do…!”

Yeah I haven’t done anything yet.

Therefore I gave a short answer.

“Oh I’m sorry. “It was a mistake.”

The mace was heavy so her hand slipped.

It’s true. therefore….

“Why don’t you come closer for a moment? “Let’s talk about compensating for mistakes.”

“You crazy bastard!”

After all it doesn’t work.

Well he probably has a head too.

Soon Hans C fell into a state of panic as if he sensed his fate.

“Oh no… we’ll all die….”

“Good to know.”

I also no longer denied it.

but….

“Because of these crazy bastards….”

Looking at Hans C who was in fear I felt a strange feeling that was difficult to describe for a moment even when I smiled.

When I slowly looked into it the cause of the feeling of strangeness was in the guy’s gaze.

‘Why are you afraid of looking somewhere other than us?’

I naturally moved my head to follow Hans C’s gaze. At the end was (old) Elisha.

An unfortunate woman who lost her former beauty and became a cold corpse.

But did he even feel my gaze?

“Gigig Giggitt Gigigit….”

Elisha who should have returned to her god’s arms a long time ago begins to convulse and let out strange sounds.

Her limbs bending dynamically as if she had touched an electric wire reminiscent of the joint dance performed by zombies in movies.

‘What the fuck is this?’

I don’t understand at all.

When I hit her on the head she clearly had the unique touch of one shot one kill.

But why is it alive and writhing?

Even making such creepy noises?

“Giggit Giggig Gigit Gigit!”

“B Bjorn? “How did this happen?”

Don’t ask me. You dwarf.

Because I’m so fucking scared too.

I’ve woken up in this body and tortured many people but I swear to my ancestors that this is the first time I’ve seen a corpse dance like that.

but….

Crackling.

This habit of tensing my jaw when I’m nervous is proof that my body belongs to a fearless barbarian.

“…I will try to solve it.”

“You want to solve it?”

Instead of answering he dashed forward and slashed his mace.

The target is Elisa’s face.

Wow!

Her soft skull incomparable to Death Fiend’s was once again dented and the dwarf grumbled at her.

“No matter how much they are looters they are destroying dead bodies!”

It’s not right?

So what?

“I was so scared that there was nothing I could do.”

“what? Something someone who is scared of that would do—”

I cut him off and answered.

I don’t know why I have to tell this to so many people over and over again.

“The best defense is offense.”

Not like cancer.

Because I’m scared I hit it and crush it.

To protect myself I attack the enemy without mercy.

This is the barbarian way.

‘Ah now I understand.’

This was why Einar was afraid of the banshee. Because you can’t destroy spirit-residing monsters.

You need magic damage not physical damage.

Having gained new insight I checked on (old) Elisa again.

And he clicked his tongue bitterly.

“Damn you’re still dancing….”

Even with her face now completely sunken Elisa continued to bend her joints showing a horrifying appearance.

Do you really need a magic deal?

“Dwalky! Use magic!”

“but….”

But what is but.

There is no need to speak kindly to these kids.

I have to speak strongly to be heard.

“Hurry up and write it!”

As soon as I shouted Dwalki started chanting a magic spell.

And that moment.

“I can’t die!”

Hans C turned his back and started running away.

It was a useless thing.

Before he could even run a few steps a crossbow arrow fired by Rotmiller hit Hans C in the back.

Phew!

Hans C collapsed miserably with his back turned.

I muttered briefly as I watched that miserable end.

“You idiot.”

If I hadn’t been given armor I wouldn’t have been able to withstand a single arrow.

If your intelligence is low your body will suffer.

Soon I moved my gaze to look at the last remaining spearman Tayson and asked.

“Aren’t you running away?”

“Because that doesn’t mean anything.”

His eyes and tone of voice seem to have already given up on everything.

However my warrior blood sensed a strange sense of heterogeneity in that voice just like Hans C.

It was that moment.

Ssaaaaaa-!

Suddenly a black glow emanated from Hans C’s body.

To be honest I was scared so I hurriedly hid behind Dwalki but nothing much happened.

The light disappeared after about 5 seconds and only then did I unfold my crouched body and check what was ahead.

“Nimiral?”

I don’t know what kind of strange combination this is but Hans C’s body which was emitting light was transformed into a mummy.

Water is a body that has lost all moisture and is dry and has lost all vitality.

Naturally the group’s attention focused on Rotmiller who fired the crossbow.

“Rotmiller what on earth have you done….”

“I didn’t do anything! “Really!”

I know this guy.

Perhaps this is definitely related to (old) Eli Love. In the first place hasn’t he turned into that guy even though he hasn’t done anything to that guy Tayson?

Wizard Dwalki urgently expressed his opinion.

“The vitality extracted from those two was absorbed into that woman’s body over there!”

Hmm I guess that’s roughly what it feels like.

After playing the game for a while I can get a general idea of ​​what type it is.

There was one thing I wanted to point out.

“Gigig Giggitt Gigigit….”

Soon Elisa stood up dancing with her joints.

The face is still half crushed.

In that state Elisha’s mouth opened.

“How did you know?”

“what.”

“That we are enemies.”

“Oh that.”

I was in a dazed state and tried to answer calmly.

“They all smell rotten.”

Was it a satisfactory answer?

I guess it’s like that.

Seeing Half Head Elisa laughing so loudly like this with her head half crushed.

“Ki hee hee hee hee!!!”

Damn why can’t I just let this one thing pass what about my life?

“….”

The current situation was similar to the Corpse Golem War.

Everyone in the group froze at the scene that was far from reality so I shouted like I did then and woke up the dazed team members.

“Everyone come to your senses!!”

If you’re not careful it all looks like a mess.

***

I have been playing [Dungeon & Stone] for 10 years.

Although it was not a popular game I am proud that I don’t know anything about it.

Actually it wasn’t wrong.

“Ki hee hee hee hee!!!”

“Oh what happened? “Why is the dead person…”

The body was resurrected.

However according to my knowledge this is not a miracle performed by Rheatlas the god of exploration.

Regardless of what those who serve him do Rheatlas is a god with a good nature.

I briefly explained the conclusion I had drawn.

“I am a priest of Karui.”

Priest of the dark god Karui.

A type of hidden class that can only be selected when starting as a human and changing to a priest.

It has the advantage of being able to use divine power and dark spells at the same time but the penalty is large.

“He’s a priest of Karui!”

“Are you saying that she was the slave of an evil evil spirit?”

When changing classes to become a priest of Karui the moment his class is discovered he is taken to the execution ground.

Therefore you need to form a team by making Malicious NPCs subordinate and in order to maintain your job you need to offer live sacrifices periodically.

‘Maybe that’s why he acts like a looter. ‘It would be safest to seek sacrifice in the labyrinth.’

This solved most of the causal issues.

But one question still remains.

Why did it have to be us?

Why have they been targeting us so persistently?

But I guess there’s no time to discuss things like that.

“I lost a precious dependency because of you.”

Did he digest all the vitality he absorbed from Hans C and Theyson? Elisa who had somewhat regained her original appearance looked at me and said.

Perhaps because my brain has recovered from being crushed my vocabulary seems to be better than before.

In other words intelligence has returned.

but….

‘What are you talking about you crazy bitch?’

Are intelligence and personality really separate?

I answered briefly.

“You must not have received proper upbringing at home to blame others in a situation like this.”

“…what huh?”

It’s all this woman’s fault that Hans and Theisen died so tragically at such a young age.

If I had just accepted my fate with a broken head nothing like this would have happened.

Soon I made up my mind.

“I will avenge Hans and Tayson.”

And I will take away all the equipment and valuables I have.

Well it won’t be easy.

When has my life ever been easy?

***

“Elisa Behenk cast [Death Call].”

“Look over there!”

The dwarf called and pointed to a place.

There mummified Hans C and Theyson were slowly getting up. I wasn’t surprised because I had played the priest of Karui a few times before.

‘Death’s Call.’

A basic and core skill for the class.

Originally it only summoned undead-type monsters but by using a corpse as a medium it became possible to handle stronger minions.

Those eyes are proof that there is no reason to be found.

“Grrrrr….”

Before long Hans and Tayson or ‘Hanson’ for short who had completed their transformation to undead looked at us and rolled their eyes.

and….

“Destroy the enemies my servants!”

Following Elisha’s command they rushed towards us.

Kwaang-!

The battle began in earnest when Hanson’s charge came out and collided with the shield wall formed by the dwarf.

“Lol Warb Dwalki casted the level 8 attack magic [Ice Lance].”

“Misha Karlstein casted [Strengthen].”

“The effect of active skills used thereafter increases in proportion to soul power.”

“Misha Karlstein casted [Improve Poison].”

While we were getting beaten up in front Misha and Dwalki tried hard to deal but there were no effective hits.

A high level of physical resistance that does not even leave a scratch even when struck with a mace with strength exceeding that of a human.

It even became undead and was given resistance to poison and cold.

I guess it’s not a good match.

Clink! Grumble-!

Of course Rotmiller who had a lot of experience fighting the undead used firebombs generously…

“You are acting nonsense!”

“Elisa Behenk cast [Dead Man’s Fire].”

Black flames flickered in the air and began to absorb all the surrounding fire.

‘Shit.’

The situation has become a headache.

Next to divine power fire which is the opposite of undead does not work.

‘In the end will we have no choice but to destroy the core?’

Even if the undead’s entire body is slaughtered they will not die as long as their core remains intact.

For reference the skeleton’s core was hidden between the ribs and Deathfiend’s was the brain.

So what about these guys who were reborn with the power of the Dark God?

The answer is simple.

“Missha can you kill that woman?”

The core of summoned creatures usually resides with the summoner.

In other words if only Elisa can be killed ‘Hanson’ can also find light and return to the embrace of the true God.

“Uhm….”

“You don’t have to be able to kill. “If we just do some damage things will get a lot better.”

“I’ll try.”

Soon Misha nodded her head.

And immediately she stepped on my shoulder and leaped high toward Elisa.

Movement is agile and flexible enough to outwit even a fairy. However she was not someone to be dealt with helplessly.

“Elisa Behenk has summoned [Shadow Guardian].”

Shadow-shaped soldiers rose from the ground and blocked Elisa’s surroundings.

No matter how much Misha did it seemed difficult to break through them and take off Elisha’s head in a short period of time.

but….

‘There’s no reason why we can’t go to a long game.’

What if Hanson had a weapon in his hand?

Since it has already been confiscated Hanson who has been transformed into an undead is not much of a threat.

In fact just the two of us the dwarf and I can take as much time as we want.

After making my judgment I redistributed the personnel.

“Dwalki Rotmiller you two too help Misha.”

“but….”

“It’s okay. “The two of us will try to do something here.”

“I understand! “Then please!”

Soon as Dwalki and Rotmiller joined the tide began to slowly decline.

Of course the Shadow Guardians were regenerated as soon as they were destroyed and as if they still had some power left they showered us with various curses…

“I feel like I’m slowly losing all my strength! Cheer up!”

From that moment on the number of shadow guards that were constantly summoned began to decrease significantly.

Even if one worships an evil evil spirit the source of power is limited.

But couldn’t this situation have been expected?

“These damn things…!”

Elisa who was on the defensive became embarrassed and began to tremble.

However he gritted his teeth and quietly muttered as if he still had the reason to survive.

“I will not forget this humiliation….”

The Shadow Guardians whose numbers had been reduced over the course of about 20 minutes were left with less than five.

Realizing what I was going to do I shouted urgently.

“what? “Fuck no!”

I’ve almost caught everything now so where are you running?

I dashed with all my might pushing Hanson who had been stuck throughout the battle.

but….

“Elisa Behenk has cast [Heroicization].”

Soon Elisa’s body turned translucent and she floated into the air. And in that state he glanced around at us.

“You will never return alive.”

It flew far away and disappeared into the darkness.

Whiiiiiiiit-!

I looked in that direction in vain like a dog chasing a chicken and sighed heavily.

“Shiba….”

The boss mob that caught everyone escaped.

And that too with a grudge against us.
