Minorous suddenly slammed its giant axe onto the ground in front of it, creating a crack spanning a radius of 10 meters. Concurrently, the air waves from the axe brought forth ultrasound with it. There was no space to dodge. The thin white wave simultaneously struck Hiro, Jacob, Noah, and Liberty and heavily flung them to the wall. “Ughh!” Hiro groaned while covering his sharply ringing ears. He was trying to stand with the help of his greatsword, but the piercing pain was causing his legs to…-

After finding out that the number of players required to enter the boss area was four, Noah asked Hiro, Liberty, and Jacob to disband their party and join him as he wanted to be the party leader. Of course, Hiro disagreed. As a veteran gamer, Hiro understood how important the position of party leader was. “I already have three in my party, so I can just look for another player to enter my party. As for you, good luck looking for three more.” Hiro’s last sentence successfully affected Noah’s…

The monster in front of them had an unusual charm. Its form was akin to a fox the size of a Maine Coon cat with a body as gray as a rock. It had a tail shaped like a branch with a low-rank fern on it, spreading to cover the back of its body. Ding! “How beautiful!” Liberty exclaimed. “Beautiful indeed!” Jacob said in agreement. In the meantime, Hiro, who felt that they had no time to play around, had pulled out his sword and pointed it toward the fox’s direction. “Sword Combo…

to enter the dungeon.] Hiro retracted his hand upon knowing the requirement for entering the dungeon. In the meantime, Liberty and Jacob were already walking toward him. Jacob, whose curiosity was piqued, imitated Hiro’s actions, put his right hand on the invisible barrier, and received the same notification. “Heat Resistance? I’ve heard of that before,” Jacob muttered and tried to recall where he heard that term mentioned before. Liberty only waited in silence. Meanwhile, Hiro felt that he…

The distance between the player named Jacob, a knight, and Hiro was getting shorter. However, Hiro did not budge from where he was standing. He waited with his greatsword ready to be pointed toward the incoming crowd of monsters. Jacob shouted repeatedly at Hiro for him to run for safety, but Hiro ignored him. On the contrary, he felt grateful to the player for bringing nine free medium-level monsters to him. Finishing those monsters off as a warm-up would be perfect as well. When the remaining…

Hiro checked his android bracelet intending to change his mode back to ring mode, and he was surprised when he saw a pile of notifications of messages from the same sender. “Huh? Just what did she do? Sending me this many messages… is she in danger?” All messages sent by Liberty contained only one sentence, which made Hiro even more dumbfounded. Hiro massaged his head after he finished opening all the messages Liberty sent containing the same sentence. He didn’t miss anything. However, the…

Uneasy waiting for his item to sell, Hiro decided to take a short nap. And because his body felt sore after spending so much time in-game, he fell asleep fast. … Gasp! Hiro jolted awake. He slept like a log, and his bedroom was dark since he didn’t get to turn on the lights. “Jeez, eight hours? You’ve got to be kidding me.” Hiro hurriedly got up from his bed and turned on the light in his room. He was really annoyed with himself for sleeping too long, and he was in a bit of a daze due to…

Hiro’s first quest was finally completed after he successfully brought the NPC little girl back to her father, NPC Ron. Liberty burst into tears of joy seeing NPC Ron’s reaction when they brought his daughter out of the Dark Forest. As for Hiro, he was a lot more relaxed as he knew that they weren’t real humans. “What a tiring day,” Liberty said with a sigh. This time, Hiro and Liberty walked together back to Beginner Town. Hiro’s mind was still distracted by his discoveries about the…

Hiro dashed toward the boss monster, intending to launch a direct attack. Desmodus did the same; the monster let out a loud hiss as it dashed toward him. And thus, the real fight between Hiro and the boss began. Whoosh! Splat! Hiro’s blade managed to slash through the monster’s chest, causing a slimy green liquid to gush out from the long streak that spread to its sunken belly. However, as he had to advance to injure the monster, Hiro couldn’t avoid the creature’s sharp claws attacking his…

Because of how dark it was in the dungeon, Liberty had been keeping herself close to Hiro as the two walked further into the forest area. The distance between the trees was almost nonexistent, so the two had to walk on roots that spread to cover the ground. “How further is it?” Liberty asked in a choked voice. “I don’t know, but what I do know is there’s still a boss to fight.” Hiro sighed. His head was still throbbing from Liberty’s merciless punch, this time because of his unrestrained…
