Chapter 52: Chapter 52. Facing Orc King
"Thank god, Sylphid is okay, if something happed to her I don\'t know what we do after that," Aisha said finally taking a breath of relief.
"Well, yes you are right, but I don\'t think she will last much longer. Although her shield looked powerful, but it might also have some limitations like her own ergy capacity, wh she runs out of ergy, her shield naturally couldn\'t protect her, and still if she manages to save her own life, but the main question still remains the same, and that is, how will run away from the Orc King?
Now she made him more angry after blocking his attack, so in my eyes, her chance of escaping from the Orc King\'s evil hands doesn\'t look much high," Myne said calmly while analyzing Sylphid\'s situation like a professional.
"Don\'t you have a little bit of shame? How can you say something so wretched with such a calm face? Don\'t you ev have a little bit of sympathy toward her? Aisha asked nervously while holding her bow tightly ready to ter the battle to help Sylphid anytime. Ev though from the bottom of her heart, she just wants to run away with Myne from the Orc King as soon as possible.
After all, she is still young and she wants to live till her old age, also she has no wish to die a virgin, but does she have a choice?
If she uses Sylphid a princess as cannon fodder to distract the Orc King so she and Myne can escape without any trouble, th it won\'t be long before Royal guards would be knocking on their doors, and with Royal\'s not-so-good attribute towards commoners, there is 99.9% chance that she and Myne defiantly lose their head, for abounding their princess behind to die.
So now she can only try to distract the Orc King by herself while letting Myne go, at least he can save his life, this is also the reason why she didn\'t want to reveal Sylphid\'s Idtity as she knows that in eyes of most of the commoners, Royal family is like symbols of God, for whom they can do anything to make them happy, ev if they have to sacrifice their life to protect or do something dangers for them ev though they might be unwilling and only meet them once.
"Huh? Why should I feel shame for not helping a stranger? it\'s not like I owe her anything, and I have to consider the gap betwe myself and my oppont before messing with him. Do you really want to see my dead body so depressingly that you continuously courage me to sd my head under the Orc King Axe? Also don\'t you notice anything strange about your frid?
Although she was about to kiss the lady death but still not ev for once she asked for our help, I can only think of two reasons behind her this weird behavior either she\'s giv up and knows she can\'t be saved so she\'s trying to buy you time so you can run away, or she still has some trick in her sleeves about which we don\'t know," Myne said with a frown while using Appraisal skills on Orc King...

Wtf! What kind of skills are those? And his levels it already cross 50+, ev Ormanulunas whose levels were just 44 already gave him a fire shear of trouble, th what about this Orc King, who is not only levels higher than Ormanulunas but also has more weird skills than him, and what the hell is this Unique Magic skill?
I never heard about it before, Myne thought confusedly but after seeing that Sylphid\'s shield was just about to break, he quickly steals all Orc King\'s skills, he should try to study them later, currtly, his survival is the most important matter...
Just wh Myne was about to hold Aisha\'s hand again and wanted to escape, behind his back, Aisha also draw out her bow and was ready to shoot an arrow toward the Orc King to distract him, suddly Sylphid who was hiding in her turtle shell-like shield while cold sweat dripping from her forehead, took out a small baby fist size small silver color metal ball from her blouse pocket.
"Sigh, such a precious thing, and I had to use it in this kind of a place, what a big loss," After saying that Sylphid looked at the Orc King with deep hated, who was still continuously attacking her shield, trying to break it.
"Die for me you dirty worm" Sylphid scouted and before jumping back with her all strgth, she threw the small silver ball in her hand at the Orc King\'s face.
Just as the small silver ball which wasn\'t ev the size of the Orc King\'s small pinky toe finger touch his face, suddly some weird and mysterious pattern appear on the small silver ball for a momt, and soon they start shining strongly...
*Boom...
As the pattern on the small silver ball fully charged, a loud explosion happed in front of the Orc King\'s face, which blasted away both the Orc King and Sylphid.
The Orc King who was just bullying Sylphid, finally tastes his own medicine, because the silver ball blasted right in front of his face, and he was completely defseless, not only the Orc King threw a 0 away but half of his face also become a mess.
His first front big teeth were already brok by an emy in a battle some years ago, and today his second teeth, with most of his right face also left him alone. Now betwe his appearance and a third rate horror movie\'s ghost villain\'s appearance, the only differce is that he is still alive.
As for Sylphid, because her shield still has some ergy left, it absorbs most of the impact of the blast before it shreds like glass, but in the d, Sylphid\'s luck was quite good, and other than some scratches, burn marks, and loss of her not so expsive cloak, she was completely fine.
Because she doesn\'t have her cloak covering her face, Myne also saw her face for the first time, Sylphid has short shoulder-lgth gold hair, big blue colors eyes, a beautiful doll-like face, .-meter height, and disappointingly B-cup size boobs.
Sigh, such a beautiful girl but... anyway, do her assets have anything to do with me? I already have my own big soft mountains, Myne thought with a satisfying smile while looking at Aisha\'s giant boobs.
"Myne! What are you looking at? Hurry up and quickly help me, we have to get out of here before the Orc King comes to his sse, do think that such a small blast can kill him," Aisha hurriedly said while helping Sylphid to stand up.
"Sorry, I was distracted a little bit because of the blast," Myne replied, and quickly help Aisha to provide some support to Sylphid.
Soon with help of Asiah and Myne, Sylphid, a delicate little princess who was beat up by the Orc king, stood up on her two feet, and start running.
While running Aisha uses her healing skill on Sylphid, which quickly recovers her injuries, and after recovering Sylphid breaks free from Myne and Aisha\'s grip, and said, "I can run myself now, you guys don\'t have to hold me anymore, just run quickly the Orc King already starts catching behind us," After saying that she took out a yellow color potion battle from her blouse pocket, which only god knows just how big her blouse inner pocket is and drunk it without any hesitation.
"Isn\'t it the potion that increases a person\'s speed for a short period of time, without any side effects?" Myne thought with wide-op eyes, after seeing what Sylphid had drunk.
"F*ck! Such a waste, that thing\'s worth is more than 50 platinum coins," Myne mumbled unhappily. Although the price of this speed-increasing potion is sky-high, but how many potions are there in the market which don\'t have any side effects?
So in eyes of rich people medicines that don\'t have any side effects are always placed on their \'Must buy in any condition\' list, and rarely one or two such potion battles without side effects can be se in the market for an tire year, most of them sell before they could ev reach to the shops.
Myne knows about it them thanks to his Alchemy teacher Jin, who is trying to teach him potioning but Myne always avoids that because he felt it is too boring, and before awaking he doesn\'t ev have the Alchemy skill which is a most basic requiremt if you want to learn alchemy, so he never takes it seriously, and his that habit still not leaving him.
Roar...
Just Sylphid\'s speed suddly skyrocketed and she left Myne and Aisha in the dust like how they did before, the Orc King with his record-breaking speed, quickly caught up with them, if Sylphid also gives Myne and Aisha speed increasing potion, th it would be a piece of cake for them to run away safely from the Orc King but Sylphid clearly not have such a big heart that she can give two strange whom she just meet a potion bottle worth 50 platinum coins in free, ev if she is a princess reality is always cruel from imagination, and there is no such thing as an instant fridship just because everyone is in the same situation.
Aisha was slowest among the trio, and the Orc King soon come behind her like a grim rapper, he rise his big Axe high and was just about to smash Aisha\'s head wh a big red fireball comes from the front and hit on her face, which allowed Aisha to ran away from the Orc King attack range.
"Aisha, you go ahead first, I am following you, also after we reached home remind me that I have to train you, your running speed is really too slow, it seems like your always sitting in one place and eating without any discipline habit made you a lazy bum, it is really a miracle that you don\'t become a fatty," Myne said with a smile while shooting a fireball again toward the Orc King.
"Don\'t talk nonsse, I never eat without discipline, okay, also If you dare die in the Orc King\'s hands, th remember I will never forget you, we just have to escape, there is no need to unnecessary fight, got it?" Aisha said with concern but she didn\'t stop Myne from doing what he wanted to do, as now it is not the time to have a chit-chat, and she knew very clearly that if Myne can fight with an Orc Priest th it shouldn\'t be impossible for him to escape from the Orc King.
Seeing that Aisha accept his proposal without any hesitation, or any drama, Myne felt a little lost in his heart.
Those damn novels were just a branch of nonsse, there is no such thing as absolute bond/love betwe two people just after meeting some days like in those novels, where wh a boy asked a girl to go ahead while stopping the emy, the girl starts crying or begging to stay with him and wanted to fight till her last breath together with him but didn\'t want to spread from him, but here, she didn\'t ev think for 5 seconds before she responds.
Sigh...such a poor soul am I, Myne thought while shooting a wind tornado toward the Orc King.
What\'s going on here? How can this guy use wind and fire magic skills? He clearly does not have those skills in his awaking list, th where does his skills are coming from? Does he also have a magical artifact? But those are ev rare for the royal family th how can a poor orphan like him, who spd the most time hunting in order to earn money, can buy such an expsive thing?
Sylphid thought with a shocked expression, she come here especially to meet Myne so, of course, she have read all his backg data, but now after seeing Myne using skill after skill about which she have no information, this made Sylphid lose her calm.
"Princess! What are you looking at dumbly? Let go we should quickly get out of here, so Myne can also find a chance and escape from The Orc King\'s pursuit," Aisha spoke worryingly while pulling Sylphid with her. But she still once in a while looked back to see Myne\'s situation, clearly, she is worried that her first-ever boyfrid would die before they could ev spd some romantic nights together.
"Sorry, I was diverted by Myne\'s explosive powers," Sylphid said while again making a calm face as if nothing has happed.
...
"So big guy, after killing so many of your kin, we are finally in front of each other huh, but still who would have thought that a weak chick like me, who can\'t ev beat a damn sheep two weeks ago, know going to fight with an Orc King?" Myne said with a smile while casting all his defsive skills, but after looking at the Orc King\'s giant body, he felt like he really need to get some more defsive skills.
"So that was you who killed so many of my people? Damn you ant, no wonder I felt like I have se you somewhere... The Orc King roared again but this time anger in his eyes was clearly visible, and he raise his big axe and smash it on Myne\'s head with all his strgth.
Myne seeing that he successfully moves his death closer, crushes his luck and big mouth, and hurriedly dodges, the Orc King\'s attack.
Boom...
Myne looked back where he was just standing and saw a big meters deep crater in his original position, which fright him to death.
F*ck! So strong, ev without his skills, this guy is literally a walking disaster for normal people, no wonder, Aisha and that flat-chested girl were so scared of him, Myne thought and after standing up from the g, without any hesitation he turns a and starts running toward the town.
No way, he defiantly isn\'t a fool, who thinks himself overpower just after killing some cannon fodder> and he would never put his life on the line and fight with such a dangerous monster like Orc King without absolute advantage over his side, in order to save someone else life.
He already gives Aisha and that flat-chested girl opportunity to run away, ev now if they still get caught th he can only pike up Aisha and sacrifice that flat-chested girl for the greater good. As for why he is running toward the town?
That is because he believes that a town which just some hour\'s distance from the capital city probably has one or two super strong people living in it who can do some hand-to-hand communication with the Orc King, and ev if he is wrong, and there are only weak chicks like him, th it is okay too, till the Orc King ter the town just relying on his physical strgth while destroying that big and solid trance gate, he believes that The King defiantly sd someone strong ough to deal with him, so he doesn\'t have many worries.
Just as Myne decided the next course of action, from the corner of his eyes, he a big sharp axe coming toward him to chop him in half, seeing this Myne didn\'t think and quickly roll down on the g.
Just as he did that The Orc King\'s axe pass from the top of his head, like a gust of wind, while cutting some of his hair, and a big tree next to him like a knife cutting butter without any resistance.
Bang...
"Shit, shit, Myne quickly think something, otherwise next will be your head, instead of this tree, which was laying on the g," Myne said to himself and quickly use double jump skill to make some distance betwe himself and the Orc King, but how can the Orc King let Myne goes away from himself so easily, seeing that Myne jumping like a monkey on top of trees and going farther away from himself, he quickly aimed his axe at the back of Myne and with all his strgth, he throws his big axe at him.
Myne who was continuously using double jump skills and running from the top of trees, suddly felt a chill from his back, so without any hesitation, he who was just about to cast a new of double jump, stop all his magic power immediately, and fall behind the big bushes, in front of a meters tall big giant tree.
The Orc King\'s axe like a spinning tornado, while leaving behind its afterimage, quickly pass Myne\'s position, but at the last momt, because Myne cancels his skill, and didn\'t use the double jump skill just like the Orc King predicts, the axe after passing from the top the bush, got stuck in the tree.
This damn axe, I have to do something about it, Myne thought and suddly an evil idea come into his small head. Since he like throwing his axe so much, th he probably didn\'t care about such a low-quality axe, right?
After making the decision for someone else item, Myne hurriedly runs toward the Orc King\'s axe which got stuck into the big tree, and after coming in front of it, Myne quickly grabs its handle and put it into his invtory.
The Orc King, who was catching Myne, after seeing that his most beloved battle axe, which was also the royal symbol of his kingship, and the most powerful weapon of his tire Orc Tribe, vanished because of the little ant whom he trying to kill, suddly felt like he received 000 points of damage instant.
First Orc King for some reason, lose his connection with his skills some momt ago, which was quite weird for him, but he still didn\'t think much about it because to kill some weak ants, he doesn\'t need skills but seeing Myne stealing his most important weapon in front of his eyes, the Orc King who was already angry suddly let out an ear-piercing roar, and like a mad bull, rushed toward Myne.
"Damn thief, retune back me my axe!"
Dream on, If you really care so much about your axe, th why the hell are you throwing it a nonstop? Now since it is in my hand, th you can only say goodbye to it, because your axe now is mine, and I rarely give my things to others, hahaha... Myne mocks the Orc King oply and after waving his hand to him, he uses double jump skill and runs away.
