Tenkomori: The Homecoming Club Conquers Another World-Chapter 92.4 - The Second Year at the Academy - Another Craftsman (4)

Did it go?

Concealed in the shade, I used [Presence Sense], confirming their passing.

Shortly after beginning the pursuit, I encountered a hairless monkey-like demon called Declama.

Fortunately, the wind was in my favor, and the 3 Declama, enhanced by the [Eternal Explorer] skill, couldn't perceive my [Stealth], so they passed by.

I could have taken them down, but there were orcs nearby, and I didn't want to draw unnecessary attention with a needless battle.

Still, it was my first time seeing a live Declama.

I wonder if there's any material I can gather from them. I should ask Rebecca about it later.

I regained my focus and resumed the pursuit.

And within a few minutes, I clearly sensed orcs ahead in the forest.

I approached cautiously and observed their behavior.

The orcs had made a nest in a hollow in a large rock.

There were five of them and no females in sight.

All of them were young—perhaps I mistook them for females.

While concealed in the shade, I pondered how to proceed.

Should I take them all out at once or engage in some training?

It would be quite challenging to chase them down if they scattered and escaped.

Let's go with a test run.

I revealed myself and unsheathed my Shamshir, showing it off.

In response to the sound, the orcs all grabbed their weapons.

Four of them had clubs, while one had a two-handed mace.

Not magical weapons, but they were in good condition and didn't look too shabby.

Gemma would probably be delighted if I brought them back as souvenirs. Though it would be quite a hassle to carry them.

The two in front raised their clubs and charged at me.

First, I needed to slow their movements down.

I activated [Penetrate Gale], and invisible wind bullets struck each of their right eyes. fr eeweb novel

The orcs made strange noises and fell forward.

With one eye destroyed, it would be difficult for them to escape.

That made it easier, but…

Both of them convulsed a few times and then stopped moving altogether.

"No way, a single blow?" freewebn ovel.com

I couldn't help but exclaim.

[Penetrate Gale] doesn't have the power to deplete an orc's health to that extent.

But if it pierced the eyeball, it meant it reached the brain. It was a plausible result, but almost impossible with bolt-type skills.

It must be thanks to the high penetration power of the sniper-type skill.

I should keep it a secret that I've learned it. I might get targeted as an assassin.

While I was surprised, the remaining three orcs were in a state of confusion.

It was no wonder they were confused when their comrades suddenly died.

And somehow, they seemed to conclude, leaving only the orc with the mace behind.

"Isn't it a bit early to give up?"

I activated [High-Speed Movement], and while dashing, I used [Heavy Blow].

I cut one orc's torso halfway, changed direction, and used [Heavy Blow] to sever the other orc's leg.

Really, how am I supposed to do some training like this? It won't be worthwhile.

After slashing the necks of two orcs and finishing them off, I faced the orc with the mace.

As expected, he was like the group leader with a good weapon.

However, he couldn't keep up with the continuous attacks and stood there dumbfounded with the mace hanging by his side.

"Hey, pull yourself together. You're going to accompany me in training. If you still want to run, I can make it easy for you. I don't have a taste for torture."

I pointed to the remains of his comrades, and he roared and attacked.

It seemed like he took it as a provocation. Well, that's mostly correct.

With confidence in my abilities, I used [Rapid Sword Dance] while parrying his attacks.

It was more suited for weapons like Shamshir and could be a good practice for using skills.

I had switched my mindset but suddenly realized that the mace attacks had stopped.

He seemed to have run out of energy before his health. The orc sought an escape route and desperately looked around.

It seemed that he understood he couldn't win because he was a superior individual.

Monsters also seek safety when they're in danger. Very few fight to the death, like goblin leaders.

Oh, there was a goat too, right? Huh, was it a monster?

While tilting my head, I approached the orc, sliced through his thigh, and activated [Heavy Blow] while he bent over, beheading him.

In any case, you monsters that feast on humans are enemies.
