How did I turn my victim into a phoenix-like hero?

Page 55

The premise is that the opponent is an enemy who has "eyes" and uses the "eye" function.

However, it doesn't matter where the Maple Knight strikes, because his swift and powerful high-damage polearm will cripple anyone who gets hit.

However, even the sharpest long-handled knife is only lethal when it comes into contact with its target.

What's the difference between a weapon that can't cut people and a toy?

Seeing the Maple Knight seem to pause for a moment as the long-handled sword missed his neck, Sirocco couldn't help but smile with emotion.

Even with a large gap in skill, experience can compensate for it...

Sirocco didn't finish speaking.

He heard the whistling wind.

That was the sound of a sharp weapon tearing through the air.

The long-handled sword did indeed miss, but the Maple Knight did not change his move or retreat to reorganize his attack.

The Maple Knight simply loosened his grip.

He let the long-handled sword fall freely.

The Maple Knight took another step forward.

Sirocco is one step closer to death.

"Gan".

Before the words of greeting could be uttered, the Maple Knight's selfless charge shattered Sirocco's chest with pinpoint accuracy, his bones instantly crumbling.

—If a weapon attack misses, there is a chance to choose to attack with bare hands—

Sirocco secretly noted it down.

At the moment of fading consciousness.

A powerful force pulled Sirocco's soul back from the road to the underworld.

"Pfft! Cough!"

Water poured into his mouth, and Shilock splashed around twice before standing upright in the lake.

"Cass, your timing is getting better and better."

"Well, after all, he's pooped so many times..."

Sirocco was soaked to the bone, while Cass was only wet on his lower body, while his upper body was dry and refreshed.

Damn it, is this how protagonists are treated?

After 13 attempts, Cass successfully defeated the Maple Court Knight once.

So he gave Sirocco more time to practice.

Sirocco felt both jealous and somewhat relieved.

Cass's genius adaptability and combat instincts are even more formidable than in the game.

He is also quickly becoming proficient in using his talent for friction.

It has enormous growth potential.

So the rest of the time was spent helping Sirocco pull the rope.

The current score between Sirocco and Maple Knights is—

24:0

Sirocco is 0.

They didn't win even once.

fracture.

Facial disfigurement.

The liver was perforated.

Neck deformity.

I withstood all the damage, including the damage from the previous rounds.

The ground beneath the Maple Knight's feet, stained red with a radius of 2 meters, was a mixture of Sirocco's blood and body tissue.

"Sirocco, let's try again tomorrow..."

"No, again! I must win this time! Cass, what time is it?"

"...9:32. You lasted 17 seconds this time, that's great."

"Great, I'll continue."

Sirocco's clothes were so tattered that he looked like a vagrant or some kind of avant-garde art.

"I'm fucking here!"

Wading through the water, Sirocco ran towards the Maple Knight, whose back was turned.

"Honestly, she's acting like a child, so unwilling to admit defeat..."

Cass gripped the rope tightly, his gaze fixed intently on Sirocco, who had already fought the monster countless times.

He licked his dry lips, suppressing the slightly twisted thoughts in his heart.

"...Calm down...I absolutely cannot miss the opportunity. Yes, I am just worried, I have no evil intentions whatsoever."

This safety rope connects him to Sirocco.

Sirocco's life and death are in his own hands.

Whenever Sirocco is in dire straits, pull him back.

It felt like I had other people's lives in my hands...

Cass didn't want to admit it, but his feelings wouldn't lie to him.

A pleasant feeling.

41. Paper ball

"This time, I'm almost there in 30 seconds, let's keep going!"

"Come on! You wooden doll!"

.....

"35 seconds."

"Come again."

.....

"A new move? No, it was my mistake in responding; I shouldn't have blocked it!"

"Come again!"

.....

"Not bad, I've forced them to attack with vines!"

"the last time!"

.....

"Huh? Sirocco, aren't you going to fight anymore?"

Cass didn't understand why Sirocco had stopped at this point.

The Maple Knight was reduced to a single vine, and Sirocco stopped attacking and retreated back into the lake.

Sirocco's level didn't increase, but he repeatedly brushed with death against Maple Knights who were stronger than him, causing his AGI (Agility) value to skyrocket.

They were able to wear down the Maple Knight without taking any damage, leaving him with only one vine.

Unlike Kas, who can use his talent "friction" for defense, Sirocco, who is afraid of pain, has no room for error.

A single attack will render them essentially incapacitated.

Burning nerves constantly increase reaction speed, fighting the Maple Court Knights with only a 60R broadsword.

Pushing the limits of the physical body.

“Karas, it’s your turn. I deliberately pushed it to stage two.”

"What?! It has a second form?!"

Cass looked at the Maple Court Knights on the shore; the monster was indeed acting strangely.

Instead of returning to the Rune Maple Tree, the Maple Knight suddenly bent over, and the two red phosphorescent flames on his bucket helmet swelled up.

As it straightened its body again, fueled by battle aura, the deep green vines around it grew wildly, turning crimson as if coiling around a living flame, and its body swelled to twice its original size.

"------"

The Maple Knights silently gazed down at Cass and Sirocco in the lake.
