Chapter 33: CH 33

Chapter 33: The Awakening of Takumi


Afterwards, while fighting the occasional goblins, we were confident that we were getting closer to the colony.

「It’s there.」
「Yes, it’s a Goblin General like we thought. Luckily it isn’t a king.」

We discovered a mid-sized goblin colony, and the site had about 300-400 goblins. There were superior species such as Goblin Archers and Goblin Mages, with 4 Goblin Knights and the Goblin General as the head.

「The Goblin General is huge.」

Compared to goblins that were the size of elementary school students, the Goblin General is over 180 cm tall. You wouldn’t think they were the same race.

「I’ve confirmed with the Wind Spirit. There seems to be no people here.」

We sighed in relief at Sophia’s report.
The fate of women kidnapped by goblins and orcs is tragic. But with this, we can freely launch magic.

「Then let’s match up our timing.」

Sophia and Maria nodded and began kneading magic power.

「Oh Spirit of Wind, turn to blades and cut the enemies before you.」
「Solid piles that pierce through all, Bloom.」

Sophia and Maria recited incantations.

「Spirit’s Riot Blade」
「Rock Pile」
「Firestorm」

Blades of wind overran the colony.
Piles of rock burst forth from the ground like a mountain of swords.
A maelstrom of fire swirled in the middle of the colony.
A stream of skill level announcements flowed in my head, but we rushed into the colony with spears in hand.

The surprise magic attack of three people reduced the goblins to around 100, 1/3 of their original numbers. And originally, challenging that amount in melee combat with just 3 people is unreasonable, but we were confident we could win.
Unscathed goblins were few, and injured goblins that couldn’t move well were stabbed with the spears we wield, killing them one after another.

Enemies in front were mowed down by stabbing them with the spearhead, enemies from behind were hit with in the face with the butt end of the spear.
While using the spear, I scattered stone bullets with Earth attribute magic 「Rock Bullet」.
We stabbed with spears and swung with swords. Goblins fell to the ground each time.

The minute it turned into a melee, Sophia changed her equipment from spear and sword to sword and shield, and performed what seemed like a sword dance in the crowded areas.

Maria sometimes shoots out a fireball while using her spear.

Kaede’s tough invisible threads make the surviving goblin’s heads fly soundlessly.

The movements of Maria and I, who were low leveled, quickly grew sharper and stronger as we fought.

「Gaaaaaaaaaa!!」

Roaring and carrying a large sword, the Goblin General appeared with the four Goblin Knights.

Sophia began fighting two of the Goblin Knights.
Maria and I confronted the remaining Goblin Knights, one-on-one.

When the Goblin Knights started running, holes were made with Earth magic. With the ground underfoot suddenly collapsing and opening up, the Goblin Knights that started sprinting lost their balance. [1]

「Ha!」
「Yaa!」

Maria and I stabbed the necks of the fallen Goblin Knights and swiped sideways from there, and the Goblin Knights’ heads went flying.
Then I saw that Sophia was struggling in her fight with the two Goblin Knights.[2]

「Maria! Support Sophia!」
「Yes!」

When I thought about it afterwards, I fail to understand why I, who was aiming for a peaceful life as an artisan, challenged this clearly superior opponent alone.
I confronted the wounded Goblin General.
Flinching from the tremendous pressure that lashed at my heart, I tightened my hold on the spear to recover and started running.

Booon!

I avoided the large sword that the Goblin General swung while lunging with my spear.

〈The 「Insight」 Skill has leveled up〉
〈 The 「Evasion」 Skill has been obtained〉

I distributed magic power to my whole body and strengthened it.

〈The 「Enhance Physical Abilities」 Skill has leveled up〉

Gin! The large sword hit the spear.

〈The 「Spear Handling」 Skill has leveled up〉
〈The 「Taijutsu」 Skill has leveled up〉
〈The 「Matoujutsu」 Skill has leveled up〉

I instinctively read and avoid attacks while lunging with the spear.

「Guuooooo!!」

The Goblin General whose injuries were increasing began brandishing his large sword recklessly in irritation.
The movements of the Goblin General, which were lacking liveliness, and mine, which were gradually stronger and faster, were ever-changing attacks and evasions interlaced.

The Goblin General’s power and speed were superior in the beginning. But that made a reversal as the fight continued.
I wonder if I’m in the zone right now. I could see the Goblin General’s breathing perfectly.

〈The 「Swordplay」 Skill has leveled up〉
〈The 「Spear Handling」 Skill has leveled up〉

Before I had realized it, I was already holding the spear in my right hand and the sword on my left.
I enveloped the spear and sword I held with magic power and began repelling the Goblin General’s large sword.

〈The 「Matoujutsu」 Skill has leveled up〉
〈The 「Body Control」 Skill has been obtained〉

The wind pressure from the large sword cut my cheek but I dodged while slashing, dodged while stabbing, and kicked when I saw a chance.

My level rose during the surprise magic attack, and my skill levels increased during the battles. With my senses catching up to the sudden changes in my body, the discrepancy between my body’s capabilities and skills were resolved by my abilities and awareness that have improved. And so I became aware that my movements were gradually becoming refined.

〈The 「Enhance Physical Abilities」 Skill has leveled up〉

As I was exposed to the pressure of the enormous sword, my concentration was boosted to its utmost limits, and I overpowered the Goblin General.
And so the difference between the Goblin General and I had become decisive.

Zashuu!!

「Haaaaaaaaaa!!」
「Guoooooo!!」

Piercing its heart with the spear, I let go of the spear and jumped sideways, going around while gripping my sword overhead with two hands and swinging downwards at the Goblin General’s neck.

Gan!! Goto!!

〈The 「Spear Handling」 Skill has leveled up〉
〈The 「Swordplay」 Skill has leveled up〉
〈The 「Mage」 job has leveled upped and has become 「Magus[3] 」〉

Seeing the Goblin General’s head go flying and spurting blood, I searched for Sophia and Maria.
Sophia and Maria had already disposed of the 2 Goblin Knights and were watching over my fight.

「「Takumi-sama!」」

The two ran over to me and embraced me.

「Good work.」
「You were amazing, Takumi-sama. That style of fighting was unthinkable of an artisan.」
「You were so cool.」

Even Kaede returned to my side.

『Master, Kaede, Evolve, Start』


「Ooh, isn’t that great? Then, in that case, evolve safely in the subspace.」
『Un.』

Kaede went back into the Subspace.

I checked my status; It’s become amazing.
First, the level of Mage capped and changed to Magus. Looking at the detailed explanation, it’s a job that has a higher correction to magic circle mastery and influence on magic compared to Mage. Warrior had also capped, but because it has diverges into several higher jobs, it is currently on hold.
Aside from that, I obtained Evasion[4] and Body Control Skills, and there are skills that leveled up, but the biggest change is probably that my level increased. Like the title also says, it seems that the difference between the Goblin General’s and my level was quite large. I understood that my title and win against the Goblin General is thanks to it being injured by the surprise magic attack at the start.

「I wonder, why did the cowardly me challenge the Goblin General alone………」

I was in a trance at that time, but thinking about it now that I’ve calmed down, I don’t get it.
