《Breakthrough》Chapter 6: Fighting enemy stronger than you is not good
Advertisement
One month IGT (In Game Time) has passed away.
Now I think, I already strong enough to defeat those knight inside the chamber.
My level is twenty one now. Most of my skill already reach Intermediate, and I obtained some new skill.
I learn Mana Flare magic skill from Mr. Joshep. I thought nobody can teach me about magic but when I ask Joshep why he didn’t teach me in the first place, he said “don’t be so greed, you are already a magnificent warrior” well, that is true but when I tell him about I need to defeat monster in the darkness and I can’t fight while bringing torch he teach me immediately
Also I manage to learn some book which previously I can’t learn it, like Transmutation Skill
Dark Flame is like a magic skill. This skill came from Darkness Control.
Dark Mass is like a substitute of human muscle for me, it gave me like flesh muscle surrounding my skeleton but that just a darkness, without creating any new body. This skill also came from Darkness Control.
I obtained Mind Perception unintentionally when I learn something from Mellisa, that happen when I put some more concentration when learning some book.
And the last is Tailoring, I learn from normal citizen, his name is Teon. He used to be sewing just for his family clothes but he is not really a Tailor so he only know some basic sewing.

‘Now- I will defeat those knight and I hope I can find some clue about the curse’
My gear already improved a lot. Now I’m look like a giant knight.
If people outside this city saw me like this, they might be mistaken me as a boss mob, that can’t be helped since my body is so colossal.
My equipment set is Templar armor. I made this equipment with real Templar armor as my reference, so I name it Templar armor set to be precise Heavy Templar Armor Set.
Made by mixed metal that I found since if I only use recycle material it won’t be strong enough, luckily I found some titanium weapon nearby The Castle so I use it as mixed material.

‘with this should be enough’
I have been train for two months in total.
This place already made me feel like my second home. Everyone in here help me develop and train me to make me stronger. They greet me every time I met with them, They thought me about this place. They are truly kind. It’s make me wonder, ‘is everyone outside this place is also can be this kind?’.
This place might be dead but everyone lives in here … is so lively. I want to treasure this place.
Before I go to the chamber once again I was greeted by Restia and Lina.
“Hi Selamet, are you about to go to the chamber?”
“yes, because I think, I already strong enough to challenge those knight”
“I wish you luck and I wish you find about the clue”
“yes, thank you Lina”
“Selamet, do you mind I accompany you ‘til the city gate?”
“of course you can”
“then I will leave first, I will at the adventurer guild if you need for anything”
So, we walk together to the city gate. When we are on the way to there and she began to talk.
“uhm … Thank you Selamet.”
“for what?”
“for trying your best to lift this curse and you made people inside city more lively again”
“don’t mention it, I want to thank you to them also, I want to repay those kindness and all the skill that they are teach and train to me”
“but without you here, they won’t be so lively again like that … it’s like they are forget about the curse …”
“is that so? Then I’m also glad to hear it, but don’t worry … I will find the way to lift the curse”
“hehehe, thank you once again … for doing your best to lift the curse”
“as I said, don’t mention it, I also doing this to repay all of you”
When we already arrived at the city gate.
“good luck and please come back safely”
“don’t worry Restia, even if I lose I will get resurrected in four days”
It was feels like a Hero about to depart to defeat an evil kind but too bad, I’m the one that people thought ‘the evil kind’
When I pass at the graveyard, this place is already swarmed with undead creature, but no sweat since I can’t sweating … I defeat them all just by one swing.
It’s good to manage some exp because my level is haven’t much rose up since I only defeat small creature at nearby city, only a few chance the undead bear is showing.
When I clean the graveyard, I manage to get 4 level.
The entrance of Catacomb is also swarmed by undead mob.
The hallway is already clean, I get another 2 level so total my level right now is 28.
‘my level is already above the paladin knight, maybe I already can see the boss level’
The large door is still the same, I open it and the Undead Hero still stood at the middle of the Chamber.
I check my Status Window

‘My mana and health regeneration is high, with this I’m surely okay to put some more mana flare to make my surrounding more visible’

I summon more Mana flare and put it at few corner.
With this, the battle begin.
I step forward following the ten Paladin knight marching towards me.
I activate Dark Flame and put it on my Greatsword, and began to use Heavy Slash horizontally.
CLAAAAANK
Paladin Knight use their Shield to block my slash, they manage to block it but they are flew away because they cannot withstand the blow.
Their shield is broke, some of them only leaving deep scratch but all of them now is burned in Dark Flame. Their HP began to decrease more and more with the Dark Flame.
The Undead Hero is still standing at the middle of the chamber, ignoring Paladin Knight which is still fighting with me. I wonder why.
With this chance began to charge to scattered Paladin Knight and kill them one by one.
I thought this gonna be so hard defeating those Paladin Knight but yet I don’t know about the Undead Hero capability.
When I see Undead Paladin Knight body disappear, they drop a Silver coin and some armor.
‘what kind sorcery is this? Oh yeah, this is just like commonly RPG game then’
When I thought about how realistic this game, in the end this is just commonly RPG game system but with realistic interface, oh well.
Undead Paladin already gone and now Undead Hero began to move.
With his huge Sword, he drag it to my position and leaving scraping sound
SREEEECK
Since my body is too big and my speed is not fast compared to him, so evade his attack is useless then I take my guard to try withstand his attack
His sword glowing in bright orange color and then He swing his huge sword diagonally.
I block it with my sword, however I almost lose my grip because of his attack is so strong.
You have lose 254 Health
My health decreasing even I block his sword. It seems he also using skill like mine, by applying magic to sword.
I jump back, bend my body forward and trust my sword.
He dodge it by lean to left, he about to attack again. His sword glowing and slash it to my body.
“ARGH!”
I get hit at my chest and It’s so painful.
You have lose 1536 Health
I shoved back few meter. I try to stand again.
My Weapon Holder is falling from my body because of it and his attack leaving huge scratch at my chainmail.
‘His body might be small but he can swung his sword like a feather’
His level is 40 so our gap is 12 yet he is so strong.
Or maybe not … after he attack he didn’t attack me immediately. I began to realize that he need time to charge the next attack because after he attacking, his sword is dimming.
TAP TAP TAP
He charge to me, his sword began to glowing again. I took defend potition.
He swing Horizontally and I block it with my sword.
CRACK
My sword is cracking because it’s cannot withstand his attack.
I jump to my right and try to swing my sword but yet he manage dodge it again.
He jump back, he began to charge again quickly after it.
I can’t defend it …
SWUUUUNG
My head is flying in the air leaving my body
You have lose 2560 health
I-I lose …
…
Just kidding, I’m still alive.
When my head landed, I see my body is still standing and I still can move it.
I jump back. However with this headless body I have an idea how to defeat this Undead Hero
My health point is still 32% it should be still fine even if I failed with this plan I can still run with the remaining Health point.
His sword is glowing, he about to attack me.
I take my position.
He charging toward me. He swing it horizontally from left to right.
I try to block it with my sword, more crack from my sword.
With this he cannot evade my plan.
I grab his head with my left arm.
He jump back … however, my left hand is still stuck at his helmet.
Leaving him like that I began to muster all my strength, with only my right arm I swing my sword to his left armpit.
SWWUUUNG … CLAAANK
My sword now is broke but I manage to attack him.
He flew in the air and hit the wall … and dropping his sword.
‘as I thought, he will drop his sword’
Without thinking twice I took his sword.
He began to standing, I apply Dark Flame to this sword and began to swing it.
He was blinded with my left hand, with this he cannot evade this attack
As result, his body is splitting into two part.
His body burned in Dark Flame and turn him into ashes.
You have level up
You have level up
You have level up
Ignoring level up window, I see his remaining armor is not disappear and also his sword.
‘is he dropping loot an armor set and this sword?’
But now His armor is splitting into two part … well, I guess I will remake it and mix it with other material since my armor is also need repairing.
With this … The battle is end.
I put my head back on my body and also my left hand of course.
I check up what kind sword it is.
Currupted Sun Greatsword Type:GreatswordDurability:231 / 400Quality:HighSword made by mixing Adamantium and Fire gem

STR +100
AGI +60
‘Woa, even though this is just half of its power, this is really strong, I guess I will keep it and if I could, I will remake this sword with other material’
When I look around, I found at the end of chamber, there is another room.
‘I hope I will not met any more trouble’
Leaving me feel anxiously instead of curiosity. I open that door.
I see a normal room, it seems like a resting place … I meant not a tomb it just normal bedroom.
‘So dusty inside here, how many years this place was not cleaned!?’
When I realize I see something glowing at the bed.
I walk to there and I found someone has been stabbed at her heart.
I see remaining of female body because judged from her clothes, and also it seems she is witch.
A White sword emitting dim white light.
‘is it okay to pull it?’
I look at the remaining dead body … it’s only skeleton left.
‘I guess it’s okay to pull it’
Because of my curiosity at the limit, I grab that sword but then … something unexpected happen.
The white sword began to glowing, after that … something flashing at my mind, it’s made my head so hurt.
It’s hurt a lot. I scream in pain while seeing some vision.
I barely can see it but overall, I know this is her mind or to be precisely her vision when she is alive.
I see a girl growing at farm village but then that village is burned, then I see many books, I think she tried to learn something. I see more and more memory flashing at my mind, but that’s it made my head hurt so much
The last memory that I saw is when she tried to resurrect something, but then I saw a king like person, he is cursed by her. When she already apply the curse to the king, she loose him but it was a mistake … because of it, she got stabbed by White Sword from the king, and then my vision is gone … I began to faint.
before I completely fainted, I was thinking that ‘Curiosity killed the cat’ after all.
…
Slowly I began to regain my consciousness.
I slowly open my eyes …
Guess what I found? … I found myself at the heaven, sitting in comfortable chair and many angel serving me! … well, that would be really great but instead of that I found myself lying on floor.
I feel something different about my body.
I try to stand up but my body feel limp, the chest area seems heavy.
I cast mana flare and try to look around, I see a mirror at the corner.
My vision is still hazy but after a few moment … I find myself turned into something.
I have been turned into girl
“WHAT THE FUCK?”
I shout it loud when I found myself become a girl.
‘This could not be any worse?’
…
