Chapter 815 The Hidden Ace



Chapter 815 The Hidden Ace

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

—The 'Crimson Witches' have killed the [Elite Goblin Knight]. All members are rewarded with 10 Gold Coins and 100,000 Experience Points.

—Received [Cursed Broadsword] x 1

—Received [Random Evolution Stone] x 1

The Goblin King didn't react much when the giant goblin swordsman finally fell helplessly to one of Crystal's light arrows, and just waited 'patiently' for Emilia's response.

Based on what he'd seen so far, he didn't believe that she could remain calm for long when faced with the 'well-being' of her 'friends'. It was such an obvious weakness, to the point where the Goblin King felt it would be a mistake to not make use of it.

As he expected, the na?ve little elf in front of him really wavered once she realized that the fate of her teammates was also on her shoulders, and slumped her shoulders in defeat. "I-I… If I do as you say, will you really let them go…?"

The Goblin King grinned. "Of course."

Watching her trudge over to the boss, Danielle, Nico, and Robin couldn't help but panic.

"Emilia?!"

"No! Don't listen to him!"

Although this was only a 'game', and they wouldn't really suffer 'physically' no matter what they went through in this 'world', the sensations and feelings that they experienced within Arcadia were no different from the real world.

If Emilia was really 'humiliated' by the monster in front of them, it would definitely leave some deep scars in her mind. And knowing that it would all be because of them only made them feel a hundred times worse.

"That perverted monster is trying to trick you!"

"Y-You… idiot!!!"

Of course, Crystal was a lot more calm, though perhaps the intensity of her next shot betrayed her real feelings.

Infused with almost double the amount of mana that a player of the same level should have, the gleaming arrow tore through the air like a missile as it made its way to the Goblin King's face in the blink of an eye.

Unfortunately, the Goblin King's confidence when facing them wasn't unfounded.

The moment Crystal's arrow was about to reach him, it seemed to crash into an invisible barrier that absorbed it with barely a ripple, as if such an intense attack was no different from a drop in a lake.

Going by their gob-smacked expressions, it was obvious that none of Emilia's teammates had expected such a thing to happen.

And as if to rub salt to her injury, the Goblin King even laughed.

"Kekeke… it looks like your friends also value you very much. Really worthy of you offering yourself up for them, wouldn't you say?"

The invisible barrier was in fact nothing special. It was just a spell that greatly boosted his [Light] element resistance and reduced the effectiveness of 'harmful' spells aimed at him as they passed through it. Of course, as he had an endless supply of mana from the 'dungeon', unlike his subordinates, this meant that he was pretty much 'invulnerable' to the otherwise terrifying attacks of the blonde archer.

"… If you keep hesitating, I don't mind going back on our deal, you know?"

Emilia shivered, then quickly picked up her pace. "N-No, I-I'll do it!"

Danielle and the others could no longer help but try to stop Emilia physically, but unfortunately, they were also stopped by a thin film of strange energy that made them bounce back.

In desperation, the drill-haired girl tried to see if it was possible for them to log out, but the grayed-out button soon confirmed her worst nightmares. Since the option wasn't available to her, it was impossible for Emilia, who was much closer to the boss, to have it either.

The boss relished in their desperation, and laughed hysterically as his sought-after 'prize' finally came to his arms on her own initiative.

This crimson-haired elven beauty that he'd been so desperate to taste was now finally his, and she even surrendered to him on her own initiative!

At this moment, all the 'trouble' that he had to go through before seemed very well worth it.

The Goblin King grinned. "Good—?!!!"

Suddenly, there was a dull 'thud!', and the Goblin King's eyes widened in fear and horror as intense, unbearable pain exploded from the back of his head.

He instinctively tried to jump back in shock, though it obviously only made everything 'worse'.

'What happened?!'

His desperate thought was soon answered by a system prompt, but it didn't bring the boss any relief. If anything, it left him even more dumbfounded.

—The [Goblin King] received 6360 points of [Dark] damage.

—The [Goblin King] has been afflicted by [Lethal Poison], and will receive 1% of his own max health as damage every second until cured or dead.

"!!!"

"Nice one, Sylvia!"

"Good job!"

Whether it was the massive amount of damage that shaved off a good chunk of his health, or the fatal 'curse' that had now seeped into his blood, neither of them seemed to make any sense to the Goblin King.

It was true that he had forgotten about the dark-haired girl who attacked him, but how could she deal such a ridiculous amount of damage to him with just one hit? Even the much stronger enemies from other 'invading' teams could only deal a thousand or so damage at a time, and that was after using some skills, at least.

Obviously, he had no idea that Sylvia's high conceal, when combined with her own skills and sense, allowed her to look for the perfect opportunity to deal the most critical strike that she possibly could. And when combined with the bonus attack and poison damage from her bow, [Sylvan Strike], the effect was even more astonishing.

Moreover, Sylvia had also done her best to sneak in a few shots on the distant goblins at the start of the fight whenever they'd been 'distracted' by Emilia, so she also had almost a hundred stacks on her [Ring of Purity], increasing her [Dark] element damage by nearly a hundred percent.

The most 'tragic' of it all, however, was the fact that the Goblin King himself had given Sylvia her greatest 'damage boost'. After all, greatly amplifying his [Light Resistance] wasn't without its trade-offs, one of which included reducing his [Darkness Resistance] to negative.

It was only now that he realized that the price he paid for being able to stand confidently in the face of those arrows was really too steep. But unfortunately, it was too late.

Emilia was too close to him now, and easily took advantage of the opportunity, her previously 'delicate' mood nowhere in sight. And even the dark-haired girl who ambushed him dealt another strike while he was too stunned to move.

This time, the damage was much more 'sensible', but when the effects of Emilia's [Poison Fang] combined with the two 'poisons' already on the Goblin King, he really panicked.

The 'death' of his subordinates had always felt like a trivial matter to him. After all, they should all 'revive' soon after, anyway. But when he faced the 'reaper' himself, even the King of Goblins couldn't maintain his composure.

"You annoying little fly, how dare you?!" He screamed hysterically, swiping wildly with his claws while compressing a huge amount of magical energy within himself.
