ALL NOVEL The Strongest Solo Gamer with Terrible Social Skills Reincarnates as a Hated NPC in a VRMMO Chapter 60
60: Werewolf Battle ②
Ah, that was close――ッ!?
Finding Mushakouji was a good thing, but it was a close call――ッ!? If I had been a little slower, Mushakouji would have been killed…
As I mentally praised my own quick thinking, I couldn’t help but think, “What am I even doing in this situation?”――and then I heard a mysterious voice scolding me.
That werewolf was too much! This monster was going overboard――ッ!? I’ll make it pay for making me so angry――ッ!!
The werewolf’s motion pattern had three types: a dash attack with a low slash, a mid-air combo, and a powerful attack with its body twisted.
The lower slash had a high hit rate and was difficult to dodge because of its quick startup. Even if it was a weak attack, it still hurt if you weren’t careful. If possible, I wanted to handle it skillfully.
If I were to take a safe approach, I would do it like this.
I took a wide stance with my feet and held my rapier in my left hand, preparing for a large swing. As I did so, Mushakouji behind me let out a surprised cry.
“What are you doing, crouching down like that?! The enemy is right in front of us――ッ!!”
…This guy is really annoying.
I had no choice but to respond.
“…I’m disrupting the pattern.”
“Pattern?”
“My actions affect the monster’s behavior. If I openly prepare for a low slash like this――then!!”
A strong attack interrupted our conversation. I dodged it with a backstep and quickly countered with a dash attack, striking the werewolf’s right shoulder as it stiffened after the attack.
“You can induce the desired attack――it’s basic battle strategy, so remember it.”
“――”
I said it with confidence, but the damage itself was quite shallow. The enraged werewolf retaliated with a flurry of punches, and I dodged them with ease. I only counterattacked with a quick slash to show the enemy that my attack was meaningless.
――However, our overall strength was still lacking. A regular attack wouldn’t deal significant damage to the werewolf.
We have no choice but to aim for the critical…
In the game “Legasion Sense,” there are no concepts like HP or defense power. What exists is the durability of armor and the “hardness” set by racial values. In a system where a level 1 human can kill a level 100 human by stabbing their heart, it’s up to each individual to decide whether it’s irrational or rational. Personally, I think it’s good that the system doesn’t relax, allowing us to feel tense all the time. I quite like it.
We can also aim for giant killing…
This time, our prey is smaller than that, but it’s just right for practice. The weak points of beastmen are the same as humans – the head and heart. The chest is an easy target, but I’m not sure if I can pierce the heart with my current strength.
That leaves the head.
The skull of a werewolf is harder than a goblin’s, so we need to come up with a strategy.
“Ah, ah…”
“You’re in danger!!”
Mushakouji, who’s been pushed against the wall, is giving me an over-the-top reaction. Don’t worry, it’s all an act. I’m trying to provoke an attack. Did you forget what I taught you earlier?
Seeing an opportunity, the werewolf charges at me.
While leaving myself open, I raise the silver chain in my right hand in front of the werewolf’s eyes.
“――Gah!!”
What I raised was a silver chain. I took the sword belt I had around my waist and brought it close to the werewolf’s nose. Werewolves have a weakness to silver bullets, so I thought Legasion, which is known for its faithful recreations, would have a special motion prepared.
Did it raise its face as I expected?
I thrust the tip of my rapier into its exposed “throat.”
“Gi…”
A short cry of pain escapes the werewolf.
The blade enters the brain through the throat. After confirming that the tip has reached the brain, I twist my wrist and pull out the rapier, and the werewolf collapses, losing its strength.
When the light of life goes out, a crystallization light appears. The defeated werewolf also produces a phosphorescent light, which transforms it into a small magic crystal.
“Is it over…?”
Mushakouji approaches me, trembling with fear.
As I absorb the werewolf’s magic crystal into my portal, I turn to face Mushakouji, who’s been waiting.
“It’s finally over…――Ah!!”
“!”
I involuntarily let out a silly voice.
“What’s wrong? Why did you suddenly make a strange noise?”
“What’s with you…!!”
When I turned to face Mushakouji, I finally noticed her state.
Her uniform is torn open at the chest. It’s probably because of the werewolf’s claws, but her ripped bra reveals her white, plump breasts, exposing her soft skin to the air.
“…? What’s wrong with me?”
“Oh, oh…!!”
“Opa opa?”
――Come to your senses!! The fantasy zone has opened up!!
“――Boobs…!! …Oppai!!”
