Chapter 71.3. My Name Is Thunder Gale


Let's go for the last attack. This is the end of the battle. Holding up the Queen Dagger with its brilliant red light, Miu smiles wryly.

As she was about to fold, something different from the game happened. King Mantis, having his power stolen, staggered backward. Why do I feel fear in its body? Why? It's a king.

"You're the king. Don't run away. A king who shows his back is finished. A king who falls into cowardice can only die."

Squinting, I lean forward on the Imperial Ant. King Mantis backs away without attacking me, but perhaps remembering the king's spirit, it quickly regains its composure and launches an attack.

[Red Flat]

[Hide IV]

Again, 6 consecutive strikes. Red flashes attack the Imperial Ant, but the king mantis' attack, deprived of its power, cannot bring my Imperial Ant down. One more of the same attack is needed.

Imperial Ant is hovering while holding its great platinum shield, it takes all of King Mantis' attacks and doesn't move an inch. But its HP is less than half. It's a dependable ant, I think it has more guts than the king.

But I should be able to defeat King Mantis just as the Imperial Ant sinks. Hiding in a space rift, I try to get an opening, but seeing it can't defeat the Imperial Ant, King Mantis spins around and flips its body. As if in a panic, it runs away.

"You're trying to run away. This isn't like a game, is it?"

Well, that's right. It realized it was losing, so it'd run away, even if it was the boss. It's learned its lesson. But it's the king, right? To turn your back on me just because you can't beat me isn't a king way.

"But there's no way I'm letting it get away!"

With the smile of a ferocious beast, Miu catches up to the fleeing king mantis' back as it takes flight. With magic power circling her body, she changes the reason of the world and unleashes her martial arts.

She unleashes the strongest martial arts of the dagger technique.

[Phantom Dance]

Jumping out of the spatial rift, Miu passed through King Mantis' torso at high speed, wielding Queen Dagger. Queen Dagger in her hand formed a red blade that could cut through King Mantis' body, and with a single swing, King Mantis' huge body was cut wide open.

Before King Mantis' body was cut, and the wound opened, another Miu leaped out of the spatial rift and passed through King Mantis, wielding Queen Dagger.

Soon another and another, and then 6 more, flying in fast, unseen movements, waving my Queen Daggers at King Mantis' body, and then disappearing as if melting into space.

Then Miu lands softly on the hovering Imperial Ant's head, tilts her body slightly, exhales softly, and flashes a smile.

"6 consecutive attacks aren't your exclusive property. If you're not happy, go to the patent office."

Before it could speak, the fleeing king mantis' body wobbled and cracked, falling apart and landing in pieces of flesh on the ground.

I patted myself on the chest, thinking I had won the bet. It was a bit of a risky bet.

[Phantom Dance] is the strongest dagger technique, with 6 phantoms slicing the enemy to bits. The damage multiplier is also moderate, and the enemy is defeated with 6 consecutive blows.

The feature of this martial art is that it's a strength-dependent martial art. It's a dagger's martial art, but it is power-dependent. It's regrettable as the strongest martial art because people with low-strength Thief jobs couldn't use it. But if you take your enemy's strength with [Status Steal], its power will increase.

King Mantis' HP is around 4000. It's a burly warrior type without automatic HP recovery, it has high HP but is weak. If I take away its power, hit it 6 times in a row from [Hide IV] with the insect special dagger. I calculate two critical hits would be enough to take it down.

King Mantis' next attack would have defeated Imperial Ant. So if I couldn't defeat it, I would have been in trouble at once, but it escaped instead

It turned out to be an easier fight than I expected. I guess that's another thing Mii-chan does daily. But even the boss is frightened. I see. Well, it's okay. Now that it's real, I'll have to be more careful.

I got some drop items, but I'm curious if I can use raw King Mantis material. I order Imperial Ant to land on the ground.

The Imperial Ant lands with a straight face, and I land with a whimper.

"Now, who are you?"

The tornado's effects disappeared at just the right moment, and I was called by someone who came running up to me.
