A Greatsword Warrior and a warrior wielding a claymore that’s slightly smaller.
The Turtle Sword I snatched earlier, it’s probably the right size since it’s similar to a longsword.
“Oh, now that you mention it, I have one too.”
I stowed my spear in the inventory and pulled out the greatsword.
The greatsword of Kroctus, obtained from the first clear of the Hobgoblin Dungeon.
Unlike back then when it was dull and damaged in places, the repaired greatsword of Kroctus was impressively stylish.
The gray blade was sharpened like teeth, and the leather-wrapped handle was rugged but had no flaws.
Whoosh-! I swung the greatsword down from above.
The heavy weight felt perfectly balanced in my hand.
“This is the pleasure of wielding a blunt weapon.”
“Uh, are you going to use that greatsword?”
“Yes.”
I liked it.
If it were a gigantic hammer, that would be even better, but for now, I had to be satisfied with this.
[Greatsword Lily…]
[Lily can use the greatsword too?]
[Without a job, there would be hardly any buffs.]
[Greatsword?]
[Is Lily being ignored? Ah, LOL, Lily is good with all weapons, LOL.]
[Spear and greatsword are a bit different, aren’t they?]
[From what I’ve seen of her cooking wild boar with a sword, I wouldn’t say it’s impossible.]
[More importantly, why aren’t those guys coming in?]
[The one who became a couple with the greatsword, may you die by the greatsword.]
Whoosh!
“Then let’s go.”
I slung the greatsword, which was more than half my height, over my shoulder.
Yena stared at me, dumbfounded.
Why the sudden change?
“Are we not going?”
“…No! Yes! Let’s go! Let’s kill them!”
I dashed forward with the greatsword in hand, leaving the suddenly confused Yena behind.
Yena snapped out of it and quickly moved her body.
“I’ll target the woman at the back! Lady Lily, you aim for the man in front!”
“That was what I was hoping for.”
Bigger weapons are a bit more fun to deal with than smaller ones.
I gripped the greatsword I’d been holding in one hand with both hands and leaped.
I didn’t use a jump spell, but it felt like I soared through the air as I slammed down on the opponent.
Boom! Crack…!
“Ugh!”
The greatsword warrior hurriedly flattened his sword to block my strike.
However, it was comical that he had managed to block it; the strength in his legs gave way, and his posture began to falter rapidly.
Sweat streamed down the face of the warrior who was now kneeling on one knee.
A shout rang from behind.
“Darling!”
[Darling?]
[?]
[Darling, are you kidding?]
[That’s really crossing the line, that’s really crossing the line, that’s really crossing the line, that’s really crossing the line, that’s really crossing the line, that’s really crossing the line, that’s really crossing the line, that’s really crossing the line, that’s really crossing the line, that’s really crossing the line.]
“Wow, that’s definitely crossing the line, like, seriously crossing the line!”
“Can’t believe they’re still talking like it’s all cute and stuff!”
“So, this is Deoen? Then what the heck am I doing…?”
“Yena, don’t just follow my neck like that!”
“Why is that still alive?!”
Is it really that they can’t bear to see their lover in trouble?
The silver claymore that was fooling around in the back is now aiming at my neck.
“Where are you attacking while not even looking at me?”
“Ugh!”
Kaboom!!
But the sword didn’t even come close to my neck and had to quickly retreat instead.
That’s because Yena’s dagger was attacking the woman.
The dagger and claymore clash.
The woman is taking continuous damage from the two daggers but is still managing to cope reasonably well.
“Oh, I’m purposely not using my job skill, but you’re doing pretty well.”
“Thanks… Ugh!”
Ka-Kang!
Even though the opponent is a ranker, it’s a closely matched fight.
To be honest, Yena is helping her out, but even considering that, the woman’s skills are pretty impressive.
Yena isn’t just any ordinary ranker; she’s a named ranker in the top 100.
Eventually, the woman can’t handle the pressure and gets pushed back.
Yena glances at the dagger in her hand and asks with a genuinely impressed expression.
“Wow. What level is your bond?”
“…Level 7.”
“Whoa. Did you like get married or something?”
“Not exactly…”
[?]
[7?????????]
[Wait, the max level is 8, but you’re at 7?]
[LOL endless laughter]
“Considering you’ve basically been glued together the whole game, that’s something.”
“What the heck were you doing?”
“That’s it; I have to rip you apart!”
“Seriously, what have you been doing?”
“That bond is crazy, haha!”
“Given that level, it’s on the pro scene level, haha!”
“Well, you can’t just kill them.”
“Most pro duo combos are around a 6, but 7? What the hell is going on?”
They’re quite the inseparable couple, huh?
Have I just been watching too much?
The guy who was holding the line below suddenly lets out a shout.
“Ugggghhh!”
Suddenly, the man’s muscles swell as he starts to resist.
In an instant, the greatsword shakes, and as the man activates his skill, the long-standing balance of confrontation breaks.
“Haah!”
“Wow!”
The mana of the bond thickens.
Not long after, the man shook off the greatsword completely and corrected his stance.
“Phew… You’re really amazing. A Spearman with this much power, huh?”
“…You don’t seem so ordinary yourself.”
I thought I was putting in some effort, but he just brushed me off.
The power of love seems quite extraordinary.
If there were people like this in a possessed world, maybe there would be more of them.
‘…Or maybe not? Then the Celestials and Demons would have caused even more havoc.’
One thing’s for sure, no way he can stop me and Yena at that level.
Yena is showing him some mercy, and all he can do is hold on.
If he had gone all out, it would have been over in three moves.
The man charged forward, burning with will.
Brown, gentle magical power seeped into the greatsword, swinging up high.
An attack that’s pretty obvious, maybe using combat support.
I ducked easily to avoid it and twisted my greatsword diagonally to counter.
His abdomen was wide open, except for the neck and heart that were securely protected.
The man hastily tried to block, but his movements were too exaggerated, leaving him with too little time to react.
Finally, the blade of the greatsword aimed to pierce through his abdomen without hesitation.
Ka-KANG-!
“Shield!”
A heart-shaped chain shield that was closer to light pink suddenly appeared and blocked the greatsword.
As the greatsword and shield clashed, the shield transparently vanished as if it had done its job.
The caster wasn’t the greatsword warrior in front of me.
The shield had flown from that woman who was struggling against Yena.
It seems to be a one-time defense… maybe something like that.
Having seen so many peculiar skills and equipment, I’m used to it now.
In such a desperate situation, I doubt she summoned it seeing her lover in danger; it was probably the man who activated the skill.
[Heart Shield, huh?]
[Heart Shield is freaking OP, LOL]
[A skill that blocks just about anything, what a cheat!]
[Bond needs to be nerfed; does it make sense for couples to get stronger?]
[Oh, LOL, the power of love, right?]
[Nerf the Mage too, let’s go!]
[For real, LOL]
Anyway, the attack was blocked, and the man seized the opportunity.
Suddenly, I felt a completely different kind of mana from the man’s hand as he pulled back the greatsword and his body.
Dust swirled around him, and the earth slightly settled.
It seems to be a technique that looks like his ultimate move.
“Crush.”
The greatsword, powered by fierce energy, struck down onto the earth.
With a pretty intense explosion, fragments of the rock mountain soared into the sky before settling back down.
Dusty smoke filled the surroundings, and for a moment, the warrior hid in the mist like an assassin.
Creeeak!
“…Crazy.”
“Not very warrior-like.”
A Greatsword Warrior doing a sneak attack.
If it was a tactical move, I could respect that, but if he was just panicking, that was pretty foolish.
Honestly, calling it a sneak attack was laughable.
‘When you scatter your energy like that, even if I wanted to ignore it, I can’t!’
Screeek… The sound of metal grinding tickled my ears.
This time, I deflected the greatsword, exchanging blows briefly.
Once. Then twice.
Three times… might be pushing it.
That one strong blow was pretty powerful, but that was about it.
The greatsword could handle a few exchanges, but from the third hit onward, he couldn’t keep up and was pushed back.
“Ugh… ugh… what kind of stamina…”
Clang~ The man breathed heavily and dropped his greatsword to the ground as if throwing it.
The Greatsword Warrior ended up sitting down, then collapsed flat.
My greatsword, which was preparing for the third exchange, paused its attack.
I wasn’t holding back fully, but I didn’t go easy like Yena either.
Being considerate on the battlefield means death, and it’s not good for the opponent either.
If someone keeps surviving due to others’ consideration, someday that could become poison that kills them.
But seeing him give up like this was unfortunately frustrating.
The difference between having one life and many is too huge, and these guys are just playing a game.
Dying is fine; winning the fight with your life on the line is fine too.
Only a few were fighting seriously here.
‘Professionals would be a bit different.’
Whoosh.
The greatsword pierced the man. Yena’s side seemed to have already finished up.
Come to think of it, I heard that pros also participate in mock siege wars…
Is that even allowed?
