Chapter 218
Chapter 218 - Let's be Counterattacked by the Ogre
◎ Minshiana Kingdom, The Skies
The Kazane parent and child journey on the dragon Ao continued unchanged today as well .
「Ugagaga . . . 」
And Kazane felt like she was going to die . The reason was muscle pain . Kazane's entire body was aching .
『Mother, are you okay?』
After Tatsuo spoke with a worried expression, Kazane said「I'm okay」and stroked his head . In any case, now it was simply muscle pain . There were no problems .
『As expected, fighting that Ogre is dangerous . After it went that far, I never thought it would end decisively . 』
So Ao said, but he had a horizontal burn on his own cheek .
「Well, he's my partner . It was a quarrel . I didn’t think he would rampage to that degree, though . 」
Kazane said . Her body was back to normal now, but it was in an awful state after last night's intensive training . That was the result of combat training with the Berserk Ogre . Although it was a victory, she was tattered after the battle .
It was on the third floor of the Cottage that Kazane took out in Minshiana's forest last night .
The Berserk Ogre was peaceful when Kazane first summoned him . The jet-black giant had silently stood there with an imposing stance . He had a muscular body that was as hard as the Black Rock Dragon's scales and had Black Rock Dragon claws on his hands and feet .
Even though Ao was an adult dragon who had lived for 800 years and had entered the domain of a God Dragon, his intimidating air felt threatening, but the Berserk Ogre obeyed Kazane's words . On the surface, he obediently nodded and took a stance to accept the practice match . That was how Kazane understood it, and that was what Ao saw .
But that was just on the surface . How did Kazane's order appear to the Berserk Ogre? Could the Berserk Ogre consider it acceptable? Being told to lightly strike each other by the girl frivolously smiling in front of him? No, there was no reason he could do so . There was no reason he wouldn't be angry with the master who requested such a foolish thing from him, a member of a species made for battle .
Moreover, learning that Kazane was going to challenge him with only kicking techniques was probably the last straw . Would the Berserk Ogre do as he was told when he was going to be challenged by loose techniques she had practiced for at most a day?
No . Absolutely not .
The Berserk Ogre acknowledged Kazane . That was why he could now be summoned . But that was because of her strength . Kazane didn't understand that a lukewarm master was nothing but an unpleasant existence to the Berserk Ogre .
So the Berserk Ogre smashed that down . Just before the declaration of the start of the match, Kazane received a sudden blow and was sent flying . If Kazane hadn't promptly blocked that fist with her Drake Gauntlet, her internal organs would have almost certainly been crushed, and if that gauntlet wasn't made of Black Rock Dragon scales, she probably wouldn't have that arm anymore . Ao tried to rush out when he saw that, but he was slow . Or the Berserk Ogre was too fast .
The next thing Kazane saw after striking the wall of the training ground were the soles of his feet . She guarded the powerful hit, the wall behind her was immediately destroyed, and she was thrown outside . Furthermore, the Berserk Ogre immediately jumped out to follow Kazane .
Kazane promptly released an omnidirectional Material Shield after seeing his figure, but that was cut to pieces by the invisible shockwaves from the Berserk Ogre's dragon claws that she could only sense by intuition . Kazane was astonished by that, but she used Air Jump to correct her posture and do a midair kick . However, the Berserk Ogre's heel drop came first . Although she avoided a direct hit with『Intuition』and『Air Jump』, simply being grazed cut up her left shoulder .
Kazane felt like screaming from the pain, but Kazane was currently in midair after being thrown from the third floor . As it was, she would crash into the ground, her movements would stop, and she would be killed . Therefore, she fired a Material Shield to soften the impact just before she hit the ground and took a defensive posture thanks to her『Nimble』Skill . However, the Berserk Ogre was approaching from above . Kazane clenched her teeth against the threat from the sky . Even with『Intuition』, there was no future where she could avoid him . So the Berserk Ogre entrusted himself to the momentum of his fall and gouged out Kazane's heart with the dragon claw growing from his fist .
Ao and Tatsuo's scream resounded in the night forest at that scene . But reality didn't change . The caster died due to the runaway of her summon . That common result was before their eyes, and just before the Berserk Ogre's war cry of victory,
The Berserk Ogre's right arm was sent flying .
The Berserk Ogre was probably the most astonished . After all, Kazane, whose heart should have been pierced, who should have been before his eyes, was in a counterattack posture after kicking up with the released dragon claws on her greaves .
The Berserk Ogre's attack couldn't be avoided . In that case, she wouldn't avoid it . 『Intuition』had been telling her to defend with the Skill『Cheat Death』that warped causality to prevent a blow when there was no escape . It had been telling her to use the Skill Diablo formerly possessed and used against them . Therefore, Kazane let herself die once and planned her next move .
And the blow that pierced the Berserk Ogre's momentary gap perfectly reflected Kazane's determination . The Berserk Ogre's body was endowed with defense equal to the Black Rock Dragon's scales . Even the same Black Rock Dragon's claws couldn't easily cut them down . However, the joints were slightly soft .
The right arm of the Berserk Ogre was gone, and Kazane was recovering with her Regenerate Skill . However, her amassed Skills weren't useful in a close combat situation, and there was no way to use Kazane Neobazooka . Also,『Cheat Death』had a 7 day cooldown and couldn't be used again .
Furthermore, her posture was already corrected, and she could cancel the summoning of the Berserk Ogre at any time . But Kazane understood from the Berserk Ogre's eyes that he would never appear before her again if she canceled the summoning today . She had to be a strong person if she wanted to be the master of the Berserk Ogre . She was being demanded to demonstrate that .
Ao on the third floor was considering whether he should jump in or not, but he realized that Kazane had no intention of cancelling the summoning and decided to watch from where he was . Tatsuo next to Ao was staring at his mother's figure . His wings were flapping and he was crying kuee .
The offense and defense continued for an hour after that . Kazane was able to avoid a clean hit by freely using her『Nimble』and『Intuition』Skills, and when she was wounded she could recover with Regenerate, but the Berserk Ogre's muscles were a thick wall . Although it wasn't as powerful as Kazane's Regenerate, the Berserk Ogre had the『Super Recovery』Skill, so he could recover from some attacks . Having said that, Kazane didn't have any immediately effective attack methods . Kazane had fallen into the quagmire that occured during anti-dragon battles where she couldn't break through his Health and defensive power .
In that case, what should she do?
Kazane made a gamble . While avoiding with small movements, she kicked the Berserk Ogre . It was blocked by his left arm, but that didn't matter . As long as she hit, it was fine . Then she jumped up a step with Air Jump and once again kicked right, then left; she started continuously kicking while staying up with Air Jump . The Berserk Ogre seemed annoyed and tried to shake her off, but Kazane smoothly slipped between his arms with her『Nimble』Skill and fired a point blank Material Shield .
