Sara has already caught up to the three others, standing on a space left intentionally by Motan.
Together with Yina and Double Leaf, the four of them have managed to create a diamond-shaped formation.
The Lizardman Martial Monk is at the very front, with Motan and Double Leaf on the sides, and Yina at the back, her bow drawn against a handful of encroaching enemies.
Ned is positioned furthest away, but also has the least amount of enemies close to him.
Krab is situated inside the diamond-shaped formation made by Ned and the others.
The number of enemies and amount of attack he’s taking are the highest, but with Motan’s focused support in this short period, he manages to hold his own.
“Good,” Motan observes, focusing intently at a few enemies from the four o’clock direction, approaching Krab’s back, he muttered to himself: “Just a little bit further…”
Another resilient prayer buffed Krab, and in the meantime, his previously used Blood Rage once again reached its limit, with his bulkier than usual figure returning back to its original size.
“Captain, fall back to assist Krab!” Motan shouted, “Yina, keep those behind us checked for a moment!”
Ned, carrying his longsword upside down, vaulted to Krab’s side.
He spun mid-air before landing and struck down a Beastman warrior who was just about to swing his hammer.
Thin lines of blood have been drawn on Yina’s slender fingers from the bowstring, but her wickedly aimed arrows kept several enemies at bay, unable to progress.
The next second…
“Sara!
Rush to the front!
Knock out the closest idiot among the ones in front of us!”
Clang!
The Martial Monk’s explosive power allowed Sara to deliver a punch to the target in less than a second.
The Beastman warrior who was knocked up in the air crashed into two of its allies who were trying to flank Krab, making them collide into a chaotic mess.
“Double Leaf, move in parallel to me and use your instant-casting spells to block those guys getting up on the right!”
“OK!”
Motan followed closely behind Sara.
He watched as several fireballs brushed past his body and scattered, tracing blazing arcs in mid-air before curving to hit the enemies who just got up.
Well, actually, they hit them right in the buttocks…
“Yina, ignore the ones behind us!”Emitting a soft golden glow from between his fingers, he healed Yina using the Holy Healing Technique and shouted, “Take care of the one on the right of Double Leaf.
Don’t let him get close.”
Five seconds later, all members of the Fenrir squad had gathered, and the once dense, though somewhat uncoordinated, enemies’ encirclement is being torn apart.
“I don’t suppose you mind if I cross your path a bit?” Motan said with a slight smile at Ned.
Ned rolled his eyes, “Hurry up; there’s a chance we might be able to drag your ass back alive today!”
“No problem~” Under the setting sun, Motan spun around where he stood, a soft golden holy light emitting from his fingertips, his expression calm and comforting, his eyes brimming with laughter.
“I can do it as long as everyone’s here!”
The talent effect ‘Devotion’ was activated once more.
[Of course, I can do it~]
“Krab!
Fall back, you have less than a minute to rest!”
[Even if all I am now is a mediocre, lazy, commonplace, uninspired, ordinary…]
“Captain, swap positions with Yina.
Don’t charge in, let them come to you!”
[Human being!]
“Double Leaf, sweep the ground with your Fireball technique!
Go easy on using the mana!
Yes, yes, I know you’re keeping track…”
[But it doesn’t matter…]
“Yina, open your angle of attack!
Shoot anyone who comes within five meters of the captain, er…
stand on Krab’s shoulder?
Alright, if you insist…”
[Being special, yet ordinary, is enough.]
“Sara!
Cover Double Leaf’s right side!
What?
Why am I not using directions?
Because I can’t find North!”
[Isn’t it great!]
“Don’t worry about the creep trying to get behind us, I noticed him a while ago!”
[I can do it!]
“Let him in, Captain and Sara will swap targets in a bit!
Yes, it means switching to the one at the back!”
[Even the most ordinary ‘me’ now, it’s fine!]
“Double Leaf, take two steps back, leave a spot for Krab.
Those guys are starting to get disoriented!”
[Or maybe, some things…]
“Rush forward, cut them down!”
[Only I can do it right!!]
…
[You have voluntarily disconnected, please select whether to reconnect.]
“Don’t reconnect.”
[Execute the wake-up program?]
“Yes.”
[Received, it is now 1:30 AM on January 4, 2049, you will wake up in one minute.]
Motan didn’t leave the gaming cabin after waking up, but sighed contentedly, then quickly closed his eyes and didn’t regain consciousness until ten minutes later.
An expected headache hit him, causing him to frown uncomfortably…
“This pain really doesn’t make me happy at all~” He hummed lightly, but then showed a smile of pleasure.
“But seriously, I am impressive…”
After a bit stretching, he reactivated the recently idling gaming cabin, laid down in a comfortable position, murmured ‘the timing is just right’, and entered a deep sleep state facilitated by the simulation system for logging into the game.
…
[Your mental connection has been detected, synchronizing personal information…]
[Connection completed, reading role information]
[Welcome back, neutral chaotic Tan Mo, about to enter the Realm of Innocence, good night to you.]
The view before Motan remained pitch black as he regained consciousness, but he was unfazed, subtly adjusted his position and saw a glimmer of light.
The light came through a small hole in front of him, originating from a long-lasting magic crystal lamp.
This was a not-so-large reception room, and Motan was currently inside a wardrobe in the corner.
Sweet Orange Walk 107, Dave.
In the wardrobe at Sagel’s house.
“Looks like he’s not back yet,” Motan whispered to himself: “I never thought my first time in a wardrobe would be in such a place and in a single man’s closet.
Life really is full of wonders and nonsense.”
For the next five minutes, Motan stayed bored in the closet, occasionally peeping outside through the hole he had made before logging out, and then grumbling constructively.
Until…
A creaking sound of the door opening reached Motan’s ears…
The master of the house has returned.
This was the first time Motan saw the ‘live’ Dave.
He was wearing a plain long robe, his face was rather pale, and although he wasn’t handsome, his thick eyebrows and big eyes left a good first impression.
If you disregard the evil glint in his eyes when he’s alone, just his honest appearance would earn Dave extra points in the knight assessment…
A square face and thick eyebrows with big eyes are always the characteristic of knights.
To be a holy warrior requires more — at very least, they must have a background music…
Motan activated his stealth skill first thing after logging on, reducing his presence to the lowest.
Coupled with his hiding in the corner wardrobe, Dave, of course, was unaware there was an uninvited guest in his home.
A very…very…very troublesome, unexpected guest.
So, after locking the door, Dave let loose.
Specifically, he ripped off his top, and just when Motan was considering blinding himself due to some wrong assumptions…
He tore off the bloody bandages all over him.
Yes, his upper body was almost entirely wrapped in these things, looking like a mummy when he first undressed…
From Motan’s angle, it was clear that although the bandages were soaked with dark red bloodstains, Dave’s body had no injuries at all.
Not only that, but his body had a healthy glow…
A glow that was…red, with a hint of black…
