Manowa 375

 Chapter 375 - Let's Defeat the Boss


At this moment, monsters called Odo Eater Leeches were approaching Trade City Uumin, but by nature, they weren't monsters that stayed in places exposed to sunshine for long periods of time, so they usually hid in places like the shadows of trees, mountain cavities, thick grass, rock crevices in dry riverbeds, etc.

Therefore, they weren't the kind of monster that would appear on a plain like this in such large numbers, but monsters, including Odo Eater Leeches, had a habit of obeying orders from superior species, so they would sometimes gather around Boss monsters that had gained high intelligence and attack cities.

And in front of Kazane and the others, a wall of Odo Eater Leeches was currently blocking the way to the huge black leech that was the Boss of this swarm. Kazane thought it was likely an individual that had been eroded that was being manipulated by a devil, like the Beared Dragon they previously encountered.


「Nyaaa」

「GUooOOOO!!」


The Berserk Ogre swung his club against the approaching monster swarm, and Yuuko-nee's claws tore them apart. An Odo Eater Leech's rank as a monster wasn't high. Therefore, when the high-ranking monsters Berserk Ogre and Yuuko-nee attacked, the leeches would be killed with a single blow. But even still, the vigor of the monsters didn't decline.


「Ah, jeez, they're truly innumerable, aren't they.」


While repulsing the Odo Eater Leeches with kicks, she grabbed a Tonfa by the long end to make it like a pick and started tossing away the Odo Eater Leech corpses. Even if they kept defeating the attacking monsters, the corpses of the defeated monsters would become a wall. If they didn't push them aside, they would steadily pile up before their eyes.

However, repeatedly disposing of them like that was fatiguing Kazane and the others a fair bit.

No matter how outstanding the power they possessed was, their stamina was finite. If it were Yumika using God Wolf Transformation, it would be a different story, but if they continued fighting like that, they would become exhausted and fall prey to the leeches.


「Well, that's why we have no choice but to go a little forcibly, though.」


While saying that, Kazane activated her『Boost』Skill and started recklessly attacking. With so many enemies, her Kick Devil combo would build up immediately.

Kazane kicked the leeches approaching from the front up into the air and swung her tonfas to brush away the enemies approaching from the left and right. The movements of Kazane's entire body had improved due to『Flexible』, so with suppleness like she was made of bamboo, she used high kicks to send the Odo Eater Leeches flying before immediately using an axe kick to smash two into the ground.


「Nyanyaa!!」

「GUoo」


Kazane wouldn't have been able to completely handle the Odo Eater Leeches alone; Yuuko-nee came forward and tore them apart with fire claws while the Berserk Ogre swung his club and forced them back. Kazane continued crushing them with combo kicks.


When the 8th attack was reached, both arms and legs were dyed red due to gathered Fighting Spirit. When she thrust out both Tonfas for her next attack, a few Odo Eater Leeches burst due to the impact, 10 more nearby were blown away, and...


At the time of the 10th kick, the red Fighting Spirit was released all at once and became a huge blade that chopped up the monsters in front of her.


(Skill added? Kick Decapitation Wave?)


When a Window suddenly opened, she confirmed that a new Skill had been added. Kazane guessed that the technique she had just released was a Skill derived from『Kick Devil』.


And since the front had suddenly extended, Yuuko-nee wouldn't miss that good opportunity.


「Unyaaaaa!!」


Yuuko-nee swallowed a golden fireball from her tail to boost her ability. And with her entire body wrapped in golden flame, she pushed out her claws and rushed forward without pausing. It was a charging technique similar to Kuromaru's Black Bullet and Silver Bullet called Golden Bullet. That golden bullet cut through the monsters and burned them to nothing.


And after the monster wall started opening further,


「Berserk Ogre. Crush them!!」

「GUooOO!!」


After Kazane's successive command, the Berserk Ogre loaded power into the black club and made it grow bigger. There were cracking sounds as many dragon fangs started growing from the interior of the expanding club, which the Berserk Ogre forcefully swung to widen the path that Yuuko-nee had cleared.


「Alright! Let's advance without stopping!!」


Kazane plunged forward along the path her servants had created. The Odo Eater Leeches that jumped onto that path and forcibly approached her were sent flying by Kazane's kicks. She ran through the air with『Air Jump』and continued kicking the Odo Eater Leeches that approached her.

While fluttering through the air with that momentum, she flapped the wings on her back, used kicks accelerated by Boost on the monsters, forcibly repelled them with her tonfas, crushed them with her heels, kicked them into the air, struck, kicked, crushed, and,


「Uuuryaaaaa!」


She cut through the last wall with the『Kick Decapitation Wave』she learned earlier.

As she thought,『Kick Decapitation Wave』was a Skill derived from『Kick Devil』. It was a kick-only Skill that activated at the 10 count combo threshold.


(Maybe more techniques will appear as it grows?)


While thinking about that, Kazane walked down the road they had opened and finally came before her target opponent.


「Fu, we finally meet again.」


Then Kazane said that. In that place was the devil-controlled black『Giant Mana Eater Leech』that had been protecting itself from Kazane and the others by single-mindedly throwing its subordinate monsters at them ever since it showed its figure at the start.


Kazane was standing before it.


There were no longer any obstacles between the two. Now that she had slipped through once, the Berserk Ogre, Yuuko-nee, and the Dark Ogres were encircling them to keep the surrounding Odo Eater Leeches away.


When Kazane and the black『Giant Mana Eater Leech』faced each other, the giant leech immediately started attacking. It attacked with the tentacles sticking out from its entire body. Those slimy and wriggling things approached Kazane faster than she had imagined.


「Skill・Wire Cutter」


However, Kazane had no intention of resigning herself to tentacle play in such a place. Being on the likes of eroticism duty was absurd. Therefore, those outrageous and profane things were cut to pieces by hardened spider thread.

Although『Wire Cutter』hadn't seen much use so far, it seemed to be tremendously effective on the『Giant Mana Eater Leech』. This Skill demonstrated an absolute effect against gelatinous monsters, so it could be called the natural enemy of monsters like this『Giant Mana Eater Leech』.


「Ah, it's working better than I expected.」


So saying, Kazane continued cutting the tentacles that rushed toward her with『Wire Cutter』. Her way of using it was more like a Kamaitachi than steel thread. Then Kazane threw『Fireballs』at the places where the tentacles were cut off.


『PUGYuRUAaaAAA』


The monster's scream resounded. As the black leech's abdomen burned and it rolled across the ground while uttering a strange scream, Kazane launched a further attack on the downed enemy. Charging with the Skill『Boost』, she empowered her kick with『Killing Leg』and hit its head upward with all her strength.


「Uwaa, gross!」


Kazane's face contorted. It felt like she had kicked a giant slug, but now wasn't the time to care about that.

Then Kazane released the dragon claws at the tip of her foot. After her armor evolved into Dragon Eating Ogre Army Armor (True), those had also become longer and sharper. Since she'd had to send the Odo Eater Leeches flying away, up until now, she had prioritized using normal kicks, but there was no need to hold back against this opponent.

With those dragon claws added onto her kick, Kazane cut further into the black『Giant Mana Eater Leech』.

Even after the black leech looked like it would collapse at any moment, she rotated her tonfas while strengthening her arms with『Monkey's Strong Arm』and struck it upward.

The black leech no longer had the power to resist that violence. Its tentacles had been chopped off, and its subordinate Odo Eater Leeches were being held back by the Berserk Ogre, Yuuko-nee, and the Dark Ogres. From the start, it was a commander monster that didn't have high fighting power. The moment Kazane stood in front of it, the battle was practically over.


The combo attacks amplified by the power of『Kick Devil』further weakened the Giant Mana Eater Leech, and when Kazane sensed she had reached a ten-count combo with the activation of a『Kick Decapitation Wave』that included her dragon claws, she spread her wings, flew in the sky,


「HOWACHAAA!」


And unleashed the『Kick Decapitation Wave』in the form of an axe kick.


When the giant Mana Eater Leech was thrown violently against the ground by that giant red blade, its body was cut in half, and it died.

Not only that, the Odo Eater Leeches behind it were also swallowed up, cut apart, and blown away.


「Yes, done!」


So saying, Kazane landed on the ground.

Then, a Window appeared to inform her that her Level had risen, and at the same time, another Window reported that the Skill『Odo Absorption』had changed to the Skill『Magic Power Absorption』. It seemed the Skill she obtained from an『Odo Eater Leech』had been overwritten by the superior Skill from the『Giant Mana Eater Leech』.


(It seizes and absorbs Odo, absorbs Mana, and increases the amount of Magic Power recovered from sleeping?)


Apparently, Kazane could now not only absorb magical power from someone's body, but could also absorb natural magical power. Kazane thought that Skill was probably born to maintain the Giant Mana Eater Leech's large form. It looked like the natural magical power absorption doubled her Magic Power recovery from sleeping; it didn't seem to be something usable in battle.


「Tch, too late?」


And as Kazane confirmed her own changes, a voice reached her from behind.


「Oh, Jinrai-san. You've already come this far?」

「Naturally. Well, I didn't make it in time, though.」


When Kazane turned around, Jinrai was there with a vexed expression. It seemed he was lamenting that he couldn't fight against the biggest opponent.

A little behind him, it seemed the Lindo Kingdom soldiers, who had also advanced this far, had witnessed Kazane's battle, and they shouted「Ohhhhhh!」


「That angel child cut up such a huge monster with a single kick.」

「What is that kid? A monster?」


Such voices were also raised, but overall, their surprise was positive.

The soldiers of Lindo Kingdom were scared when they witnessed the monstrosity of Jinrai's Thunder God Cannon, but this event was still within the bounds of their common sense. They were fired up from seeing Kazane's battle prowess.


Boss extermination when subjugating a monster horde had an important meaning.

That was because it would destroy the monsters' order, making their abilities drop significantly. Then messengers ran among the soldiers. The name of the angel Kazane started spreading on the battlefield.


At the same time, inside the city, the fame of『a different angel』began spreading around the feudal lord's mansion. Naturally, that was...

Yumika:「Kick Decapitation Wave... a special move? Where is my special move?」

Kazane:「Yumika has quite a variety of techniques, but they're used at the normal combat level, so they aren't very conspicuous. Well, that means you use your special moves as normal attacks, but when they're used like that, they're seen as plain, right?」

Yumika:「Well, that's fine, isn't it? Being conspicuous isn't necessarily a good thing.」

  2. I can totally see Kazane's fame being mixed with Fuune's.

  3. Can anybody tell me the reason why kazane can get a skill from the monster she defeated? I forgot, too lazy to re read from ch 1

    I don't think it's because she's a player since naoki dan yumika (I think) can't do the same. Is it because of her in game character's class or something?

    1. I think this is unique skill, Yumika has talented spear, and Naoki has sword operator. Sorry I am not goodd in English grammar.

      Delete
    2. The reason hasn't been explained. There was speculation in the story that it was her Unique Skill, but she has a Unique Skill now, so what could it be?...

      Delete
  4. Welp only one more level before she finally becomes a dragon (hopefully)...
