TL Note: Here’s the Sunday chapter that should’ve been posted last week. Sorry for the delays, I ate something very bad that made me very very sick. I still don’t know what exactly it is that I ate that made me sick though. It’s a mystery.
Also, I forgot to include something in the last chapter. The numbers for the orcs that were given at the end of the previous chapter:
Orc Total Number: 85
Heavy Armored (Sword, Shield, Armor): 16
Clubs: 43
Long Spears: 19
Short Spear: 8
Goblin Name Cheat Sheet:
The [Goblin] is to make it easier to CTRL+F.
[Goblin] Gi Ga
The goblin in that estranged group that was with the protagonist when he defeated an orc. He is currently a noble class, the highest amongst the protagonist’s subordinates. He prefers to use the spear.

Gripping the Iron Second that was over my shoulder, I ran as I cut through the thickets, exposing myself to the enemy. Following from behind me was Gi Go with his curved sword, the stealthy Gi Ji, and the 5 groups of 15 normal goblins.
The orcs that had spread out before the village were already aware of us.
They faced our direction, and they arranged themselves into a wall. A literal wall of flesh.
If it was a while ago, we would’ve run upon being spotted, but… this time is different.
“GURUuuuAaaAAa!!”
With a yell, the [Skill] <<Overpowering Howl>> bellowed, giving the signal to the noble class, Gi Gu, and the long armed, Gi Ga, on the other side.
I saw the orc before me swing his club the same time as I held my great sword in a side stance.
––––You’re slow!!
“My life is like a cloud of dust (Accel)!”
There was no hesitation.
A wall of air pushed me from behind with crushing pressure, propelling me toward the attacking orc as I thrusted out my sword.
In the blink of an eye, my body crashed into the orc as my blade pierced into its flesh.
“GuRUoOOOoOa!”
In the same instant, the [Skill] <<Soul of a Crazed Warrior>> activated.
In exchange for the madness brought on by the crazed warrior’s soul, physical strength 30% UP, Agility 30% UP, Magic Power 30% UP.
The orc’s club hit me from the side, but thanks to the damage reduction of 20%, it wasn’t fatal. Then with my great sword still pierced into the orc’s body, I clad that same great sword in magic power, and then swung it up to cut through the orc’s head.
“Turn me into a blade (Enchant)!”
My blade moved through the orc’s body, cutting it as if it were a mere sheet of paper. And when the sword clad in black flames exited through the orc’s head, it descended once more onto a nearby orc.
“PyuGUa–––“
The orc tried to use its club as a shield, but to its dismay, both the club and its chest were cut through by the great sword. And as the sword moved back the course it had gone, it cut through the orc that was just right behind that orc.
–––Move! We have to go even deeper!
That was the only thought in my mind as I continued on my way.
“GUuRUuoOAAaa!”
–––Everything that stands before me is an enemy! Move!
–––Cut Cut Cut Cut Kill Cut Kill Cut CCCCCCCut.
“–––OOAGOOaGAa!”
Two orcs stood in my way as they swung down their long spears.
As their spears descended, I struck with my sword, sending their spears flying away.
The moment the orcs lost their weapons, they brought their fists up, and they rushed toward me. Meeting them, I rushed toward them as well, and I swung my great sword up from below. The tip of my sword met with the nape of one of the orcs’ neck, cutting it and decapitating it.
The [Skill] <<Swordsmanship B->> had fully demonstrated its abilities, bringing forth a sword that knew no hesitation even in the fury of one’s emotions.
I forcefully swung down the sword that had been raised up high, drawing a line like a meteor toward the other oncoming orc. My blade met with the orc’s thighs, piercing all the way to the core of the orc.
As I removed the great sword from the orc, I fixed my posture. Then with a flash of my blade, I decapitated the orc that had lost its balance and was falling down with its back turned toward me.
––––There are enemies! Enemies! Enemies! Enemies!
I swung my sword at the behest of the maddened <<Crazed Warrior’s Soul>>.
Everything around me is an enemy. Concern is needless. So bring forth your power, bring forth your magic, bring it all out and cut them all down!
“GURUuOoOaAAAaa!”
Magic power once again gathered behind me.
“My life is like a cloud of dust (Accel)!”
I opened a path by crashing my body into the orcs that tried to block my way.
Then as I finished off an orc that toppled over, I swung my blade toward two other orcs that were approaching me from both of my flanks.
I managed to cut off one of the orcs’ arms, but he didn’t stop, only continuing to charge toward me even more. So in response, I grabbed his head, and using all of my body’s strength, I flung the orc away.
Then suddenly, I saw it from a distance. A body that was considerably big even amongst the huge-builds of the orcs. It was the Orc King.
“FoUUUuunNd YooUuuUUu!”
––––Move!
Using only the surrounding orcs’ presence, I grasped their positions, and swung my sword according to instinct.
Left, right, in front, back…? Back…?
“Tch!?”
When I turned around, what entered my eyes were the goblins desperately defending against the orcs, surrounded.
I had gone out too deep, and the goblins couldn’t follow.
–––Not good.
The moment I thought that, a club came sweeping at me from in front, sending me flying away.
<<Soul of a Crazed Warrior>> was released, and the power that had brimmed in me withered.
I fixed my grip on my great sword with my right hand. Then with the other hand, I grabbed a short sword that had been prepared beforehand from my armor, and I threw it toward the orcs that were surrounding the goblins to contain the situation.
“Follow ––The king!”
At Gi Go’s command, the goblins began to pursue my back even at the cost of sacrifices.
The moment we stop, we die.
We cannot stop until we reach the Orc King.
If you want to live, then run like you want to die.
“Move!! Turn me into a blade (Enchant)!!”
I clad my blade in magic power, and I swung it against the orc standing in my way.
The blade cut through the orc’s large body, causing blood to spurt out.
The rain of blood fell on my, dying my body in its hue. I continued on my way.
10 more steps until the Orc King–––
Three orcs wielding a shield and sword appeared before me.
“Leave this to us!”
But then a voice came from behind me, and Gi Go and Gi Ji faced the three orcs.
With only ten of them now, it was questionable whether they’d be able to even handle three orcs, but even then… I left the orcs to them.
Because of the [Skill] <<Soul of a Crazed Warrior>> and the consecutive uses of <<Magic Manipulation, my concentration has been waning. It feels like I could lose focus at any moment even now.
Gi Go rushed toward one of the sword and shield-wielding orcs.
He jumped at the middle one from the three, and he struck out his sword twice, aiming for the orc’s knees. He focused only on attacking the middle orc while his goblin subordinates followed right after him.
The orc fell down to its knees, leaving the shield it wielded easy to deflect. With an attack, the orc’s sight was shut down, and the last goblin finished off the orc with an attack to its face.
The following counterattack from the remaining two orcs were then stopped by Gi Ji and a nameless goblin. Although they were blown off, their efforts were not wasted. For right after, other goblins came in to attack the two orcs’ legs, stopping the two orcs’ pursuit.
–––Well done!!
As I yelled that out loud, I stepped on the orc’s head, using it as a stepping stone to jump ahead as I kicked myself off it.
I looked down on the ground in mid-air. As I descended, I struck my flame-clad sword out, cutting an orc from its shoulder to its chest. The force of my fall was all completely transmitted into that blow.
As we rolled on the ground, I took my sword out of its body. When I looked up, I saw the Orc King’s giant body before me.
A gray-skinned giant was looking down on me. The pressure it gave off was completely different from when I saw it from afar. Moreover, its body was so big that the great sword it wielded looked like a long sword.
Inside the Orc King’s eyes shone a light different from the normal orcs’ desire muddied eyes. The Orc King’s eyes gleamed wisdom.
Moreover, those two eyes of it carried with them scorn!
