《New World: The path of an avenger》Chapter 4: People
Advertisement
I picked the gold on the floor and proceeded to the ogre's spawn point, before I could only see a 'stay away zone', now I can see a gold mine. I hope they drop some nice equipment too, although I've killed 12 so far, but they still didn't drop anything but gold, it just shows how hard it is to get good items and skills, I was probably pretty lucky with the goblins.
This time, I was finally able to get in front of the door without be scared by an ogre. I could count 7 in the room, 6 common and an Elite, one probably just respawned.
Berserk Ogre - Level 16
350/350
This guy will sure give me some trouble. 'Sigh'. Let's do some hit-and-run here, my killing speed is most likely faster than their spawning speed, let's give it a try.
I cast 2 Arcane Bolts and aimed on 2 different ogres, successfully gaining their aggro, too bad for me, my 'luck status' that should not exist, just turned out to be an 'unlucky status', and all room's ogres, including the boss, came at me, swinging their weapons. All ogres but the Elite one, that was using a great sword almost my size, used a maul, so it was a pretty much scary scene, maybe not right from a terror movie, but enough to make me run while crazily casting spells.
It wasn't long before I was in front of the bathroom's door, with 5 ogres wanting a taste from my flesh, since I was only able to kill 2. The Berserk Ogre was behind them, and had put his sword on the ground, If we were in the corridor, I don't think he would be able to swing that giant sword well, since it would just hit the wall if swung horizontally, but here is a different story.
He started saying something that I couldn't understand at all, and the ogres came after my life, just 4 cursed ogres, nothing that I can't take head on! I was able to cast a Fireball on the closest ogre at my left side, pushing him backwards, two ogres jumped on me, but I was able to dodge moving to the left, and pierced my sword on the ogre's eye that was just hit by my Fireball, next kicked his balls, I think he was already dead, cause I didn't hear a scream that was suppose to come from such a dirty attack, or he just didn't have enough balls to face my beautiful kick, at least didn't have anymore.
2 ogres came at me at the same time, in an attempt to prevent me from escaping their attacks. They swung their mauls diagonally in my direction, my sword was too short, so I wouldn't be able to stop both attacks, I'm sure going to change this to a longer sword, maybe even getting 2, when I have the chance. I decided to jump onto one of them.
I pierced the ogre's heart and pushed him to the floor with me, sadly, I didn't have time to wait, since there were still 2 ogres on my right side, just waiting for the opportunity to kill me, if its agility was a little bit higher, I would sure be dead meat by now.
I jumped to my left just in time to dodge an ogre's attack that was aimed to my head, coming from my right, too bad for the ogre that I was just dancing on the ground with, that hammer finished the killing job.
2 ogres left, the Berserk Ogre probably isn't going to move before these 2 die. I cast 2 Arcane Bolts and run to the ogre that just tried to kill me, when he swung his maul vertically, I moved to the left side, distancing myself from them, and horizontally slashing him, even with his dense muscles and hard bones, I was still able to do a nice hit, I could see he was losing a lot of blood, too bad, he HP was still on the high side, with 50% left.

I distancing a little myself, coming close to the girl's bathroom, and cast a Fireball on the ogre's new injury, this way, the Fireball would do more damage. He screamed in pain and was slightly pushed backwards, but one second later, he came in my direction swinging his maul vertically, with his friend right behind him.
I distanced myself as I cast 2 Arcane Bolts on the same injury. He couldn't sustain himself any longer, falling to his knee, losing the grip on his maul. I didn't let the chance go, and pierced his eye with my short sword, ending his life, too bad, the last alive ogre didn't let the opportunity go either, and attacked my left arm. I wasn't able to dodge and had to take his attack head on, it was strong enough to push me to the ground, hitting my back on the wall since I have a lack in defense.
My sword was still within the ogre's head, so I didn't have a weapon to attack right now, and a furious ogre was coming at me. I cast a Fireball, that successfully pushed him backwards, giving me enough time to recover my balance and cast more 2 Arcane Bolts on his eye, He lost his eye's capabilities and started screaming in pain.
I went past the ogre that didn't want to stop screaming and got my short sword back. I pierced his heart from the back and his HP went down to zero, ending his life, at this moment, the Berserk Ogre that was quietly seeing the bloody show, decided to get his great sword and walked to me. This is bad, this place is too wide, he'll be able to use his sword efficiently, but I don't seem to have a choice at all!
I threw a Fireball on his torso, but he didn't seem to feel it at all, and just lost 5% HP, what a cheat-like guy, his defense seems to be on par with his strength. I strongly gripped my sword and tried attacking his torso, but his giant sword descended too fast, his attack range was too wider than mine, since I wouldn't be able to hit him before he could crave his sword on my shoulder, I decided to move to the side, dodging it.
I was able to dodge it on time, and cast 2 Arcane Bolts on his ribs, I couldn't see any pain reaction, but he lost more 12% HP, I think this guy doesn't have pain sensors, seriously. I launched myself onto him, but this time I was prepared for his slash, and dodged to the side-front, closing the distance between us, and attacked his ribs once again, this time piercing it and reaching his right lung.
The big guy's HP went down to 35%, a nice hit, it seems. Only to end my happiness, the ogre gripped my sword and gave me an elbow attack on my head, I was pushed to the ground and could see the world spinning, but i didn't have time to relax, he slashed his weapon vertically, trying to finish my remaining 30% HP. I was able to roll close to the bathroom's door, dodging what could have been the strike that would end this battle, but I lost my sword again.
He took the sword away from his body, and tossed it behind him. It was too far away, I think I'll have to finish him bare-hand. I cast 2 Arcane Bolts, since it would be more efficient against this particular guy.
I aimed on his pierced right side and was able to shoot right at it, this time, I'm pretty sure he felt pain, since I could see his face distorting, leaving him with only 18% HP left. The ogre started getting redder and redder, till his skin was complete blood-red, his HP went down to 5% and he jumped onto me, but he was just too fast! he closed a 4 meter distance in less than a second, I almost couldn't react at all!

I rapidly jumped to the side,my back did a contact with the wall as I saw his sword completely crushing the door and the ground beneath it. Oh my god! Thanks goodness! It wasn't me right there. I tried to cast another 2 Arcane Bolts, in an attempt to end his life, but he was just too fast and didn't let me finish the spell on time. He furiously came at me and destroyed the wall behind me, since I wasn't planning on stay standing and let him fuck me up. While he destroyed the wall I finished casting, ending his life once and for all.

Bonus for destroying the spawn point
+ 12 Status points
+ Exp
+ 500 gold
I proceeded to collect my reward from the ogres' body, if I take too long, they would just disappear with all my hard-working efforts. Among the common ogre's loot, there was only 2 pieces of armour, one I couldn't use and sold it for 120 gold pieces, the other was a pretty good armour, so I decided to equip it.
Bloody Gloves (Uncommon)
+ 10 INT
+ 5 AGI
+ 5 WIS
Restriction: Level 11
Pretty good status, and since it was a cloth armour, I could use it, this seems to be the only kind of armour I can use after all. The Elite ogre was a little bit nicer to me, and gave me his sword, which I found too big, so I decided to sell for 340 gold, and a tunic, which I was very thankful for, since I had now 2 pieces of equipment.
Bloody Robe (Uncommon)
+ 20 INT
+ 12 AGI
+ 10 WIS
Restriction: Level 12
Now I could be considered pretty rich, with a total amount of 1570 gold, too bad, the shop's armours and spells weren't really that good, but since my sword is pretty terrible for my level, I decided to change it, and at least I won't have to endure hunger, since necessities I could just be bought with gold. I have 24 status points without allocation, so I decided use them after peeing and taking a 'Renew Potion I'

I decided on using 4 status points on 'Magic Resistance (MR)', although it won't reduce magic damage, it would help me reducing the spells' effect, like for example, my Fireball capability of pushing the enemy, or the Arcane Bolt, that had a piercing effect, even though I have yet to come in contact with monsters that are able to use spells.
I went to the corridor once again, leaving the bathrooms' local, this time, I was able to walk past the ogre's room without problems, and proceeded to the next room, that had nothing within it. After going past another 2 rooms, I saw a large place that used to be the school's cafeteria, the closest stairs were somewhere around here.
You could ask, why a lone guy like me would go through the trouble of going up to the next floor, instead of going for the exiting.
Firstly, I had a younger sister that studied at this school, secondly, I didn't know how were things out there, being alone may not be the best thing to do right now, so it would be better to find my sister, and leave with some of her trustworthy friends, since I didn't really have neither friends nor people that I trusted here, excluding my sister and other girl from my classroom, oh, I hope to find her too, she's a pretty nice person.
As I was getting closer to the cafeteria, I heard a noise that seemed to be from blades clashing, there were some people fighting here, about 17,I couldn't see any bodies lying around, maybe they could still be stopped before anybody die, since their levels weren't so high anyway, ranging from 1 to 3 I could scare them a bit. The 2 guys in front fighting with swords are the strongest of each group, and seem to be the leaders.
Tatsuo Saitou - Level 4
89/122
Haruki Kimura - Level 4
90/118
I invoked a Fireball that already had 27 cm in diameter, since it had already leveled up to Beginner - Level 3, while my Sword Mastery is still Beginner - Level 2, probably thanks to my 100% Fire Affinity. I fired it between their feet, causing a high enough sound to gain these people's attention, that stopped fighting and looked at me with fear.
"Wh...Who are you?" - Haruki.
"You know, you don't have to be scared, I was just trying to stop you guys from killing yourselves, and you can just use identification, if you want to know my name."
"What the fuck, you are level 12, how's that possible?" - Tatsuo.
"I just killed some monsters, and if you kill all monsters, you'll destroy the spawn point and win lots of extra exp. Haven't you guys been you fighting against monsters as well?"
"uuh, ho... How is that possible, Elite monster are just too strong, and they always have other monsters near them too, we lost 6 people trying to kill one" - Said a little pretty girl that was just my type! A Lolita with big breasts, nice ass, and a long red hair that was close to her ass. I could see the some guys looking once in a while at her, seems like I'm not the only one with the wrong thoughts, her prettiness will serve as a double edge sword in this new world.
"You can try killing the smaller ones first, aggro them away from theirs spots and kill them separately. When there are just a few normal monsters, or none, go and kill the boss."
"Are you crazy? It's impossible for us kill those monsters! We are just normal people." - A plain looking guy shouted at me, well, it's not like you have to do that for me to be able to hear you, I'll control my impulse to kill you, since it would be a bad example. The surrounding people seem to agree with him.
"You guys will all die." - They didn't like to hear that, and looked at me with a furious gaze, too bad for them, they are just too weak to do anything to me. - "Why were you guys fighting to begin with?"
"We had a little disagreement about what to do with the remaining food and water, and ended up fighting. - Haruki.
"Wow, are you guys dumb? fighting for food? you can just buy it in the System's shop, didn't the monsters dropped some gold?"
"They did, but a day's worth food and water is 10 golds in total, the wolfs that we killed just drop 2-5 gold per death, and we can't kill a lot, since it will end up calling the Alpha Wolf's aggro to us, so we had to depend on the cafeteria's provision, but it'll only last a week at best."
"Just group up and kill the small fries till you have enough level to kill the boss, food shouldn't be the biggest problem here, it should be leveling up, you guys will die for sure this way." - I could only sigh, guys without much hope it seems.
"You are strong, kill the monster and give us food please, with your level, it shouldn't be a problem!" - The plain looking guy again, he's starting to get on my nerves.
"Why should I do it?"
"Wha... What? You have obligations as a human begin to help others!" - The surrounding people seem to be agreeing with him again, I ignored them and took a glance at the Lolita, she was shaking, probably scared about what I would do, she seems to have noticed that I'm a little angry, and I simply don't have any obligations to help these idiots.
"No, thanks, I'll be leaving now, see you around." - They started to panic when I said that.
"Ple, please, don't leave us, I, I'll do anything!" - The Lolita Gripped my arm and squeezed my left arm between her mountains, she seems to know how to use her body uh, too bad, it may be a good idea to do this in the old world, when the law was still somewhat working, but right now, I could just rape and enslave her if I want too, since nobody here could detain me anyway. I'll be a nice guy and warn her.
"You know, trying to seduce me is really a bad idea, if I really wanted, I could just enslave you, nobody here would be able to do anything." - I could see despair on her face as she noticed that what I just said was pretty much the true. The surrounding people looked at me as if I was a monster.
"Take it easy, I won't be doing that, just warning you, I am pretty sure that there would be guys here that would do what I just told you if they had the chance." I was always good at analyzing people, and I noticed 2 guys peeking at the Lolita with crazy and lustful gazes.
"Although I think you are right, humans have to depend on each other in time of crises, alone we won't be strong enough to fight off those monsters." - Tatsuo.
"Maybe yes, maybe not, but I certainly prefer to be alone, fighting against the monsters, than be with people that cannot be trusted, and would back stab me at the first desperate situation that may come." - This is getting quite troublesome, I'm already regretting for having meddling in their affairs. Nobody said anything so I decided to leave. As I started to go upstairs, the I felt somebody gripping my robe and calling me.
"Ple, please, take me with you, I want to be strong too, to defend myself." - It was the Lolita once again.
"I'll right, you can come with me, but don't expect me to defend you."
"Hey, why are you taking her and not us? So you really intended to rape her as you said to us, but don't want to show your true colors, isn't that right?" - I could see the guy panicking, he was one of the 2 guys that I was pretty sure that would rape the Lolita' if they came to have the chance, it seems he didn't like the idea about her coming with me.
"Well, it's not I am really taking her, she is just following me, you shouldn't make a fuss about it." - I decided to not respond him any further, and went upstairs with the Lolita, leaving the others behind.
