"This is really bad," Acht muttered as he started retreating slowly while keeping eye contact with the orc.
It was most likely the dungeon boss and for his bad luck, it ended up in front of him.
What are the chances of meeting this exact creature by coincidence in a place the size of a country? Well, not that high except if Acht was involved, then the chances wouldn't be the same.
But, he didn't care about luck at the moment since he was in a very dire situation. A confrontation with such a beast will be extremely dangerous if not lethal.
'I can't fucking run!' he looked behind him and hordes of creatures moving on the other intersection he will have to pass in order to escape.
The orc lord looked at Acht with its huge red eyes that were filled with anger. It saw how this small human killed a lot of its subordinates.
So, it was now eager to shred that human to pieces and swallow him whole like a fish.
"Ywahhhhhhh!!!" It screeched again and grabbed its huge club made out of hardwood before charging at him like a mad beast. Its speed was tremendous even though it weighed almost 10 tons or more.
When it reached him, the orc lord smashed down with the club.
*BOOOMMM*
The road got destroyed and a whole was created, then, like a chain of dominoes, the cracking continued until it reached the other side of the road and hit a building making it sway left and right from the sheer impact.
Acht was able to dodge it but the gush of air coming from that hit alone made him hit the building behind him roughly.
"Fuck." He gritted his teeth and stood up immediately. The orc was already in his pursuit when he was pushed away.
The monster reached him again and tried to grab him with its free hand but Acht jumped on top of it and ran all the way to the top so that he could hit a weak point that he thought the orc had…his eyes.
However, the moment he took a step on his shoulder, the creature did something unexpected.
It didn't try to hit him or grab him but instead decided to fall down to the ground.
When Acht saw that he had no choice but to jump from it before he got squashed like a bug.
'This piece of shit is smart.' He looked at it with a serious look.
He then pulled out 4 black Ooze balls and held them tightly in his hand.
He still didn't find an opportunity to make the orc swallow the black Ooze balls since it didn't seem to be giving him any chance to move. In fact, The moment Acht jumped away, the orc stopped its free fall and stood up as quickly as possible before charging at him again like a mad bull.
"Dammit! I can't keep on dodging non-stop!"
"Ywaaaaaaaaahhhhh!"
*Booooommm*
The orc was getting stronger and stronger with each hit as if its anger was fueling the energy it had.
It kept chasing after him and hitting whatever takes his place after he dodges.
In a matter of minutes, the main road they were standing on turned into mush and the building beside them was threatening to fall down at any second.
Acht didn't find one single opportunity to hit back in all of this time. The only thing he could do was to dodge and dodge endlessly.
But, even if he was skilled enough, injuries were bound to happen.
He looked at his bloodied left arm that lost its utility and then touched his forehead that was now oozing blood unstoppingly. He was in a really bad shape and he was also exhausted.
'Dammit! This fucker doesn't stop.' He thought to himself.
'It doesn't even think when it….'
Suddenly his eyes widened as an idea struck his mind like a bullet train.
"Right! Why didn't I think of that? I'm such an idiot!" He chuckled at his own stupidity.
He had the solution in front of him all this time, he just didn't look at it.
So, immediately, he went to work.
The orc was almost 20 meters away from him, so he could reach the place he wanted before his opponent strikes back.
So, he dragged his injured body with great difficulty. The blood loss had made his eyesight hazy and his consciousness was slowly drifting away.
He reached the exact position and then looked back at the monster before saying.
"You weak fucker! How about this instead of me?" He then showed him his middle finger as a sign of provocation.
The creature didn't understand what that sign meant but it was sure the human was provoking it. So, like any other monster, it lost its mind and howled in anger.
Then, it charged at him even faster than before and jumped up high in the sky.
Acht knew that it totally fell into his trap so he smiled slightly and readied himself.
The moment the creature was a few meters away from the ground, he needed to jump to the side as fast and as far as he could.
'If I miss by even a millisecond, it's over for me.' He thought to himself as a big smile appeared on his face and adrenaline rushed through his body.
It was the first time in a very long time that he felt like that. The feeling of his whole body aching with pain and the looming death that kept watching him with eager eyes.
This was the feeling he was addicted to. People liked to gamble with their money but Acht liked to gamble with his life because that's when he feels the most alive.
'It's been a very long time indeed. I hope this won't be the last time I felt like this. I better fucking live!'
"Come at me you little fucker!" He shouted with all his might.
"Ywaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh!!!!!!!"
*BOOOOOOOOOMMMMM*
