Chapter 19: 18. Monkey busniess.

Two of these monkeys come at me on the roof, their movements were slow since they needed to grab onto the roof to move.

As they swung closer to me they tried to hit me with their feet. I avoid their attacks and run around one of them to bite and kill it.

More of these stones were thrown up here and I couldn't manage to attack one of them. Meanwhile, the other monkeys were slowly trying to get up on the roof, they threw each other to try and get up on the roof. Some of them made it, and some fell off and died from the looks of it.

The number of monkeys up here is slowly increasing, but they'll stop coming once the ladder gets too short, hopefully. Since I also can't get close to them, then how about this?

I breathe fire towards one of the monkeys, apparently there was still flammable poison on it, since it practically exploded ablaze and fell off.

[7 exp was added.]

That's one less monkey to deal with, but there were still tons of them. Damn, they keep on multiplying!

I start to run away from the rocks and weave around the monkeys, spraying more flammable poison on the big pillar of monkeys. Then I shoot a fireball towards the pillar of monkeys.

The monkeys start panicking and disbanding now that an attack was approaching them, but the fireball still catches one of them, causing a chain reaction where a ton of monkeys exploded and caught on fire.

I was feeling exhausted because of all the poison that I created, and I start feeling really faint. But soon those monkeys will die, and then I'll level up.

I continue running as the gorrilas start firing more rocks, and the monkeys on the roof get more violent.

I look at my EP to see how much I can fight with techniques.

EP: 27/32

5 points lost huh? That's lower than I expected, I wonder which skills used EP and which didn't.

Oh? So the monkeys started dying huh? But there is a massive barrage of exp notifications that it's distracting me, please stop with those notifications.

[Applying changes of the user.]

Suddenly, the exp notifications stopped coming in, I don't care how it happened, but thanks.

One of the monkeys manage to grab on me because of the exp confusion. More monkeys start to latch onto them to bring us all down. The weight was heavy and I started feeling that we were slipping off from the wall.

One moment of carelessness, that's all it took for this situation to go this terribly.

I hold on for dear life, trying to knock off the monkey. And when I look down, I see that the gorrilas were planning to crush me with more rocks.

If I stay here, I'll be pelted with rocks. But if I fall, then I have a high chance of dying. No time to think, it's either guaranteed death or possible death.

I let go of the roof as I see the rocks hit the roof and bounce off away from us. I wrestle with the monkeys to reposition them under me, which was fairly easy seeing that all of them were already below me.

We crash into the floor with me being on top of them, I feel some of my bones bend in places where they shouldn't. But that feeling quickly disappeared.

I got enough experience to level up again. But I was still feeling intensely tired, and could barely even move. But the gorrilas were coming closer to me, and also some of the monkeys, so I need to move now!

Some of the monkeys in this pile were still alive, luckily they couldn't move though. To regain energy, I take one of the monkeys nearby and immediately start eating it. No point in complaining if you want to live.

[Biomass procured, 3 evolutionary points were added.]

I feel my energy replenishing when I eat one of the monkeys, but it still wasn't enough. I grab another corpse from the monkeys and lift it in my mouth as I escape from the pile.

When I was out of the pile, I see that around 80% of the monkeys were still up and running towards me, the gorrilas had also gotten deadly close. 

I don't have enough energy or strength to take them while on the ground, so I need to get back to the roof.

I run towards one of the pillars that lead up and was stopped by the rock throwing of these gorrilas, I avoid the rocks and then climb over them towards the pillar. Then I start running up the wall as the monkeys continued throwing rocks at me. When I was up, I finished eating the monkey in my mouth and dropped the remaining parts down.

Now that I regained more of my energy, I'm able to continue with my strategy of raining down on them.

As I got closer to the roof, I saw what these monkeys were doing now, they were climbing up one of the pillars. Very badly might I add, but they were slowly getting better at it.

Soon, the eight gorrilas start climbing up, with their immense strength, they were able to shove their hands into the rocks and throw themselves upwards.

One of the gorrilas looked extremely sick and was significantly behind the others though. The poison was finally working its magic now.

This might seem like a bad situation, and it is one. But there are positives here, the gorrilas were no longer throwing rocks at me, and I totally had the advantage here.

Now that I regained more of my energy, I break off parts of the wall under me, and I fire flames at them.

The rocks hit them, doing pretty minimal damage, but the fire that fell on them had ignited one of them, and it was the one who was poisoned, he must be having one bad day.

Another level, this could be the gorrila but it could be some of the other monkeys.

Speaking of monkeys, some of the gorrilas started throwing monkeys up here, the monkeys tried to get a swipe at me and then stuck towards the wall, now they were a lot closer to me than earlier.

I could use my claws on this wall unlike the roof, although only very briefly. But for any monkey that got close, I slashed them and they fell down.

While I was focusing on the monkeys up here, the gorrilas had got even closer. Way too close! There was now just a ten meter gap between us, I start running up the wall more to make some more distance, but they throw one more monkey which latches onto my back.

The monkey kept on trying to hit and stop me, and I was trying to throw it off as I kept going up.

Get off of me you stupid monkey! I'm not a tree!

I finally manage to shake it off, but the gorrilas now got too close to me, one of them had caught me by my tail, and started slamming me into the wall. The wall started breaking, and I was rapidly losing conciousness. Pain rung out everywhere, and I was nearly turned to mush.

The skill notifications went mad as the gorrila slammed me into the wall, I was dazed and stunned, but I knew one thing was necessary. I need to let the gorrila let go of me.

I start cutting off the only part that the gorrila was holding onto, namely, my tail. The pain was immense, but I was getting really used to it now.

[Proficiency of skill "Hard-willed" reached the required amount. Increasing "Hard-willed" to lv. 6]

As I was about to be slammed again, I finally cut off my tail, and I was freed from the grasp of the gorrila and was thrown further upward. I could barely stand, and was about to faint. But I was alive, and that is what mattered.

The gorrilas were firstly confused, but had then started focusing back on me. I use the opportunity of their confusion, to create more poison, I created poison and made it go down the pillar, I had also used my own blood to put down the pillar, just so I could slow them down.

Then, I start working as hard and fast as possible to create a fire beam to shoot on these gorrilas, pouring almost all of my energy on this one attack. I'll have to gamble my life on this one attack.

[Proficiency of skill "Energy perception" reached the required amount. Increasing "Energy perception" to lv. 3]

A bunch of level ups are indeed welcome, I'll need everything for this.

Finally I had charged it up, then I fire a beam of fire down on the gorrilas and monkeys, engulfing them and making them vanish from my sight.

I lost all my strength and I started falling down from the wall.

And then I felt all of it surge back, I start scratching against the wall to stop myself. And there I stood on top of the wall. Feeling perfectly fine, as if all what happened earlier was a lie. The mental damage, of course, hadn't disappeared though.

When the dust clears up, I see that they were knocked back, with a few of them being dead. They get back up and prepare for more combat.

Don't expect that it'll go your way. Because now is my time to beat back on you.
