Chapter 76: Warlord: Easy with Spear
The two Trolls looked at Ji-woo, who immediately got up after being hit by the Whirling Axe.
“I told you to sharpen that weapon. Look, it can’t even cut those human hands. Pathetic!”
“Whatever!”
Ji-woo could felt his hands shaking from the pain. He did not expect those two weapons to be powerful. The spear sharpness was capable of cutting through his skin while the Whirling Axe was sturdy as f*ck!
“Okay. Now. I have the attention of both of you. Next, it’s my showtime.”
The Emerald Troll unceremoniously jumped at Ji-woo, while the Crimson Troll ran to pick up his spear first before he also charged at Ji-woo.
Ji-woo smirked and stepped forward as well. He moved his body slightly to the right side to dodge the Whirling Axe’s massive swing by the Emerald Troll. He kicked the ground to add more power to his punch.
The Emerald Troll defended with his right hand. However, the impact managed to send him flying backward and destroying several tall trees on his way.
The Crimson Troll didn’t stay still either. He thrust his spear several times with a faster speed when Ji-woo hit the Emerald Troll.
Ji-woo managed to dodge the spear thrusts. However, his hunter gear suit didn’t fare very well with it. Not only that, but the spear thrusts also left marks on his skin. He had a hard time closing the gap with the Crimson Troll because the pull and push movement from the spear was remarkably fast.
On another note, the Crimson Troll was able to keep their distance and didn’t let Ji-woo get close. In the meantime, the Emerald Troll joined the battle again.
In a two-on-one situation, Ji-woo undoubtedly became passive. He solely moved and dodged the two Trolls’ attacks simultaneously, unable to fight back. Every time he wanted to land a punch at the Emerald Troll, a spear thrust would come at a rapid speed. It was the same the other way around when he tried to close the gap with the Crimson Troll. A swing with a blunt weapon would instantly get aimed at him.
Kikikik–
“It’s not bad to be able to match our attacks with difficulty.”
“Interesting.”
The two Troll grins seemed forced even though they currently had the upper hand. It still hurt their pride to fight two on one. After all, their opponent was just an ordinary human, the lowest and fragile race.
Ji-woo gritted his teeth and chose to hit back at the Whirling Axe with his bare hand. His fist bounced off the weapon, and he had little room to move. He also kicked the Emerald Troll in the leg and tripped him up.
Of course, Ji-woo wouldn’t have that luxury when it came to dealing with that Troll. A spear thrust was coming to his shoulder with rotation. He lowered his upper body to dodge. But he couldn’t do it perfectly. His left shoulder got slightly cut, and he didn’t let that wasted. He grabbed the spear before it got pulled back with his right hand and then followed by his left, ignoring the wound on his shoulder.
The Crimson Troll gasped, seeing that the spear couldn’t get pulled back. The Emerald Troll got up and jumped low to push Ji-woo away to release the spear.
Ji-woo quickly jumped up and kicked the Emerald Troll’s back. At the same time, he rotated the spear the same way and pushed it at the Crimson Troll.
The Crimson Troll got shot in the stomach and flew. He bounced on the ground several times and destroyed several trees in the way.
The situation changed in a matter of seconds. Ji-woo got the upper hand now with the spear in his right hand. He ignored the bleeding on his left shoulder. His right hand that punched the Whirling Axe earlier also felt hurt. It left a red mark on it, and the skin got torn a bit.
The Emerald Troll cleaned up the mess on his body after falling to the ground twice in a short period of time. The Crimson Troll also got up and massaged his abdomen. The blow clearly hurt him.
The two Trolls were no longer relaxed. The human before them had proved, again and again, that he was a force to be reckoned with it. Now, it was their turn to grit their teeth.
Ji-woo and the two Trolls looked at each other with killing intent through their eyes. The Trolls knew how determined that human was to win the battle for daring to sacrifice his body until it bled. They needed to fight with all they had.
The Emerald Troll opened his mouth to converse with the Crimson Troll.
“Our Lord Warlock wouldn’t be happy if something went wrong here. This place is important to him.”
“I know that. But, more than that. I’m more worried about the Savage Monger than the Warlock.”
“True.”
“Even though it’s beyond our expectations. We can kill that human easily. We only need to let out our full strength.”
The Emerald Troll began the fight. He dashed at full speed toward Ji-woo. The Crimson Troll also followed behind.
Ji-woo immediately changed his body position after saw those attacks. He moved his left leg to the front and his right leg to the back. Then stretch it, which made his upper body lower. His right hand moved to the back a little while holding the end of the spear and moved his left hand at the same level as his shoulder. Put the part of the spear tip in the palm of his left hand at the front.
Ji-woo widened his eyes then the invisible spear thrust was released and directed at the Emerald Troll in front.
The Emerald Troll’s eyes pop out in surprise. He tried to dodge the notably fast thrust attack. But, the timing wasn’t quite right to did it flawlessly. So, he had to block the thrust with the Whirling Axe.
Bang!
The Emerald Troll flew backward at a tremendous speed. And the Crimson Troll stopped his movement after receiving a shock from the thrust attack.
When the Crimson Troll looked back at where Ji-woo was. He found nothing. Ji-woo had disappeared. Suddenly, there was a spear thrust that came from behind. He quickly spun around to dodge the attack. It worked. But, his shoulder got cut very deep. He might not be able to use his left hand properly.
The Emerald Troll returned to the battle area. His state was really worse. The Whirling Axe that blocked the spear thrust attack was totally crushed and shattered. His chest was also bruised all over it.
Contrary to both Trolls’ appearance, Ji-woo seemed quite fine despite his hunter gear suit almost torn apart with so many slashes and cuts. The visible wounds that he had were only on the right hand and his left shoulder.
“Oh, my. Did your mouths get stitched up? You two seemed a lot more talkative before than now.”
The Emerald Troll couldn’t take the insult, charging again without giving much thought. The Crimson Troll also jumped.
Ji-woo spun and advanced with the help of a spear thrust into the ground. He hit the Emerald Troll with his knee in the face. And then, gripped the Troll’s neck with one hand.
Haaa!
Ji-woo threw the Emerald Troll toward the Crimson Troll, and the two collided. He took the opportunity and threw the spear forward.
The Emerald Troll had time to move his head fast enough to dodge the spear and only got a scratch on the cheek.
Meanwhile, the Crimson Troll was not as lucky as his comrade. The spear pierced his chest and fell to the ground.
The Emerald Troll wanted to help pull out the spear. But, it got stopped by Ji-woo, who appeared instantly in front of him.
Both Ji-woo and the Emerald Troll exchanged blows. However, most of the punches went to the Troll instead of Ji-woo.
In the end, one Troll couldn’t keep up with Ji-woo. He hit hard enough and made each blow to cause the Troll to spur green blood from the mouth.
The Emerald Troll fell on his knees and then laid on the ground. Unable to move anymore, and his breathing was heavy.
Ji-woo jumped up and delivered the final blow with his knee to the Troll’s neck from above. He then looked at the body with an icy cold gaze and smiled.
“Heh! Trolls, Werewolves, Elves, Dragons, Demons, Beasts, or whatsoever. All is still below me, the Nullifier!”
The ground cracked when Ji-woo said those words. Next, he headed toward that Crimson Troll in his last breath.
Kikikik–
Huk, Huk–
The Crimson Troll smiled and coughed up green blood.
“You’re strong.
“Even though we failed to do our job here due to underestimating you too much. You still can’t do anything with this place. It’s not supposed to get closed!”
Ji-woo held the spear that was still stuck and moved it slightly.
Huk, Huk–
The Crimson Troll coughed again.
Kikikik–
“You think it’s over!? Huh!? This place is under the surveillance of the Savage Monger, Troll Chieftain!”
Huak!
Ji-woo penetrated the spear deeper and caused the Crimson Troll to die instantly, shutting the babbling mouth.
He exhaled. ‘Is it because of the weights? In the previous Red Gate accident, my body would give off steam after using a lot of my strength.’
Ji-woo returned to where the previous dimensional space was. He tried to study its characteristics. After all, he needed to restart his exploration due to the spatial dimension.
