The Extra's Odyssey Chapter 131 Sometimes Life Doesn't Go The Way You Want It To

Chapter 131 Sometimes Life Doesn’t Go The Way You Want It To

The dome of shields that the tank created, to protect himself, wasn't impenetrable.

At the areas where the two shields met there was a small gap.

? Using that gap, which wasn't thicker than a few inches, I thrust my sword and stabbed his skull.

The shields started dissolving after their owner died.

I didn't wait for others to recover and swiftly moved.

Phzzzzt-

Swish- Swish-

I shot two swords at the warriors, while I ran toward the archers and mages.

Even though I had killed the tank, it was still very hard to kill those two warriors.

Besides, the archers will skew me alive while I kill them.

I had to kill the archers now. While everyone was shocked due to the effect of skill and the tank's death.

Fwish-! Fwish-!

The archers swiftly pulled back and shot arrows at me.

"No, you don't"

Phzzt-!

Two greatswords, pointing downwards, materialized before me and blocked the attack.

The archers' attack was simple due to them being startled, so I was able to construct the greatswords in time.

I swung my arm and threw the sword in my hand.

The archer dodged the sword. However, it pierced the support mage, who was standing behind him, killing him on the spot.

Phhhzzzzzzzt-

5 swords materialized near the ceiling and shot down.

The archers had to look up to defend.

Simultaneously, I constructed 4 daggers near the floor.

Clang-! Clang-!

The two archers managed to block while also shooting arrows at me.

Puchi-! Clang-!

I only blocked the arrows aimed at my vital areas and didn't stop running.

"Got you."

I grabbed their heads and bashed them into each other.

Covering my arms in ether I tightened my grip and swung their head at the floor.

Puchi-!

But, suddenly, a thin stream of water pierced my abdomen.

Before I could eliminate the archers, the other warrior also attacked my neck.

I hurriedly rolled onto the ground.

"f.u.c.k…"

Blood flowed through the hole in my abdomen from the attack of Lvl.15 warrior.

I used my left hand to put pressure on the wound.

"Did you have to give up the chance–"

Two daggers again shot down from the ceiling.

Puchi-! Puchi-!

Before the warrior could end his sentence, the archers were killed.

"–of surrendering…."

I stood up and dashed at them.

I didn't need to worry about the mages, and I was still pressed for time.

Eliminating the warriors was the utmost priority.

Both of them stood with their back stuck to each other.

'I guess I can't attack from behind.'

The Lvl.15 warrior was facing the other direction while the other warrior was facing me.

Despite their quick thinking, their legs were quivering.

Fear seeped into their hearts when the tank died. Even the one who was supposed to block me died at my hands.

The death of their comrades had opened a crack in their mentality and it was enough for [Domination Decree] to work.

The warrior blocked my attack.

Thud-

I raised my leg and kicked him in the chest.

Both of them fell over. Their movements were rigid, and they weren't able to retake their stance quickly.

"[Pierce]"

The tip of my sword pierced the Lvl.18 warrior's neck.

"You!!"

The Lvl.15 warrior shouted in rage and thrust his sword.

A thin stream of pressurized water shot out.

I twisted my waist and dodged the stream.

He swung his sword in a frenzy.

His movements were rigid, and he was attacking in fear. It wasn't difficult to block someone like that.

Schwing-!

Finally, after a few clashes, my blade pa.s.sed through his neck, and he stopped moving.

I looked around and found that the mages weren't here anymore.

"Did they run away?"

Their attacks were harmless to me, so it wasn't a surprise that they decided to ditch the battle.

The best choice would be to follow them and kill them before they could alert someone.

However, I wasn't in the condition to follow after them.

(Use the elixir and chase after them)

I shook my head.

The reinforcements were already on their way. There was no point in stopping the mages.

'I haven't even taken the 'Mermaid's Tear' yet. What if I met the reinforcements while running away?'

There were several paths to leave the building, but the chances that I'll meet them while escaping on a random path weren't zero.

(Can you move in that condition?)

'Yes'

My condition was bad, no, it was very bad. But it wasn't something I couldn't bear.

Besides, it wasn't affecting my combat capabilities.

I should only use Elixir if I get an injury that is detrimental to my battle prowess.

As I looked at the corpses, I was reminded of the battle.

"Being calm in every situation is the key to victory."

I smiled in relief.

The comment best described the reason behind my victory.

"Let's go. That's was only warm-up if I don't hurr-"

Clap- Clap-

"Calling that kind of fight a warm-up. Should I say as expected of an Irregular?"

The torches lying on the ground illuminated someone.

A man wearing a slightly different sentry outfit came into the light.

"Will you also call me a warm-up?"

Thick energy exploded outwards from his body.

Sensing the energy, my face lost all color.

"High Enma-rank"

I was once again reminded of one fact.

Sometimes life doesn't go the way you want it to.

--(Huntress POV)---

"Why aren't they coming?"

Huntress's expression turned grim when she realized that only a few sentries had come out.

"Did Seer trip on some traps?"

But Huntress shook her head. She had thoroughly instructed Isabell about the traps.

Also, Isabell was incredibly lucky.

The only way that Isabell activated a trip or alarm was if she did that on purpose.

"But why would she.."

Huntress's eyes widened.

"Is she thinking of using the sentries to corner the other perpetrators?"

She grew tense as she realized that this was the most possible answer.

"Why is she doing something so dangerous?! That will only make the infiltration longer!"

Schwing-!

Boom-!

Huntress brandished her b.a.s.t.a.r.d sword.

With a single swing of her sword, a 10 feet deep and 70 feet-long gash appeared on the ground!

She ignored the splitting of ground, as if it was something common, and increased the intensity of her next attack.

Huntress had been slowly increasing the intensity of attacks to call the sentries out.

So far, she had been unsuccessful, as only a few of them came out.

However, she knew that Isabell wasn't in danger. Besides, Isabell could use her intercom to call for help.

The only time Isabell wouldn't be able to call for help will be when she was facing someone so strong, that before she moves her hand to activate the intercom, she would already be captured.

Huntress was getting worried because of Psychic.

"Why isn't he responding?"

Now that there was no device working in Underworld, Psychic was free from obstructions. His job was to maintain a link between every member and he shouldn't have problems without the obstructions.

This way, even if Leon or Isabell couldn't use their intercom due to some reason, Huntress would be able to know about it.

The only one who didn't know about this was Leon. Huntress wanted him to do his best, thinking that there was no backup.

But Psychic had gone offline ever since he removed his limiter.

Schwing-!

Clang-!

Suddenly, someone blocked her attack.

"I didn't know Miss Huntress would be coming here herself."

An old man with a monocle over one eye and a butler uniform.

"Iris' butler? Why are you alone?"

"Milady is asking you to stop creating a ruckus in her backyard."

Huntress' eyebrows twitched. Iris' att.i.tude was as shameless as she remembered it to be.

"Then ask her to come here and it herself!"

Boom-!

This time, the butler was forced to dodge, as the strike wasn't something he could block.

Huntress decided to focus on her job.

Creating a divergence and stalling for time.
