........or not!

The moment I thought that, the BOSS frog glared at me for a little while and then started charging at me full speed while attacking me with its

Come on, I’m tired you know? Why can’t we just be friends? ... ... I don’t care anymore, I’ll just kill you and rest!

Kukekekekeke just die, just die already you damn stupid toad kukekekeke~ I’ll kill you! I’ll kill you!

Ha!?

Wh-what did I just said? Gyaaaaaaaaaaaah!?........ guh s-something inside of me is starting to come out….. s-something must have been woken up inside of me!!

Good vibes! Good vibes!

Phew~ I manage to suppress it somehow!

Did I have a sadist side? I-I never thought! ... better to forget it … !

“Hey you idiot frog! What would you do if a strange door open inside of me!? I wouldn’t be called handsome or cool

Hero anymore you know! Kuuu if that happens what will you do?”

Lowering my stance, I started running towards the BOSS frog while avoiding the barrage of with the grey lines acting as a trajectory line of those attacks, dodging it is no problem.

Blink!

I immediately teleported at the back of the BOSS frog. As if I will fight it head-on again. Don’t you know it’s very tiring!

Baaaaaang!

I slammed the claymore directly into the BOSS frog’s ribs.

A fatal hit!........or so I believe~

The claymore was perfectly wedge into its flesh but it was still too shallow. It remained strong and its stupid expression didn’t even budge. Oh well at least its health declined.

But if you thought that this is all I can do, then this will be your end!

I thrust my claymore again. This time I precisely aimed the part where I attack it.

Phew~

‘This BOSS frog’s defense is too troublesome. Prolonging this battle will be fatal, how the heck can I kill it?’

I was thinking when a sudden memory popped out from my mind. It was a memory from a long time ago when I was still in that old man’s dojo.

---00---

“Fumu I feel like I can cut anything now! Hahahaha”

Holding my long sword; a Nodachi which I named ‘the Great Holy Sword’ just kidding~ its name is ‘ShiroYuki’ a beautiful sword with a white colored hilt, which is given to me as a present from my master, I was laughing as I constantly swing it.

“Hey idiot disciple”

Unbeknownst to me, I was not alone. Apart from me there was a big middle-aged man with a well built body. He was my master.

Master suddenly told me while sitting at the dojo’s entrance while looking at me. Sanzaemon Makoto, my martial art master. He was a little bit weird and lazy old man but he was an excellent martial artist it’s just that he will only teach me when he was on the mood; usually he will just make me do footwork training.

“People who calls idiot are the real idiots!”

I answered thus,

“Cut that tree with that sword”

I was left dumbfounded, what he was pointing to was a big tree. It was so big that one cannot wrap it with their arms. More or less cutting it with my sword is definitely impossible!

“Haaaaaaa~ are you an idiot, old man?”

“Didn’t you say you can now cut anything with that sword? Why don’t you prove it by cutting that tree?”

“Don’t be so unreasonable old man! Don’t you see how big and thick that tree is? Maybe I can cut it but how long do you think I can do it? jeez my treasured sword isn't a double-edge sword but a beautiful katana, you know~”

“Don’t blame me; you’re the one who said you can cut anything not me!”

“…..”

“Sigh~ you see, idiot disciple no matter how sharp swords are, there are things you can’t just cut easily. That tree is an example of it, although you can cut it you will need a tremendous effort and time to do it”

“In other words…..”

“In other words, you should never be overconfident and become arrogant!”

“Tsk!” I could only click my tongue in displeasure because I could not deny his words. From others point of view, my actions and behavior from before is really that of an arrogant bastard.

“…….then what if, this is only what if okay! What if my opponent possess tremendous defense? What should I do?”

“Hm?”

“Y-you know, like he was wearing full-body armor or something like that! Obviously slashing with a sword is definitely impossible, I think. So how can I deal a huge damage?”

“Really?......hm let’s see…it will be hard but not difficult.”

“How?”

“It’s like ‘cutting nothing’.”

“cutting nothing? What’s that?”

“There’s a legend I heard about. There was once a master swordsman who said ‘in both heaven and earth all things possess their own breath. Whether it's living or not; stones, leaves, metal. These things have their own breath, so you’ll just cut it. Just like cutting nothing ... Exerting less effort you can cut down anything you want. Even if its rock or metal, as long as you cut along this breath it is not difficult to cut it down.’ It was once called the ‘Death Lines’ well it was just a legend though.”

“Tell me something I can use in real life not some legend where it was unknown whether it is possible or not!”

“Such a self-important brat you are….oh well, there is also that method”

“Method?”

“Yeah. After many years martial artist discovered a best method through science. This method is actually for decoding secrets and cracking codes but it one swordsman thought that it was actually applicable as well in martial arts.

That swordsman developed a way; basically concentrating your attacks and hitting the same place all over again, although this method is very hard to perform for it needs tremendous experience.”

“Hitting the same spot all over again?”

“Oh yeah? yeah that Crypto, no Clyptano …“Cryptanalysis, right ?” yeah Cryptanalysis. You will only hit one part so that you can cause greater damage to some extent towards your enemy”

Firstly forgetting the name of that technique, master simply laughed after I corrected him and then continued speaking casually.

“So I just need to precisely hit on the same spot?”

“Oh you’re quick to understand, as expected of my idiot disciple”

“What you’re saying doesn’t make sense old man. How can you call someone who’s quick to understand an idiot? Are

you an idiot?”

“Don’t sweat the small stuff!”

‘AS IF!!!’ screaming in my head, I maintained my calm expression without letting out my personal retort as to not interfere with what he’s speaking.

“The place once attacked will severely weaken thus after attacking again it will result in a bigger damage than before. Even if the previous attack only resulted in a small wound, when you focus all your attacks to that point it will become big and then became deadly.”

Even though I’m listening to him, I knew that this technique isn’t something anybody could use. One need to wield a weapon with all his might and attack a point smaller than a grain of rice repeatedly is something very difficult even if he was an expert martial artist. More or less if it was against moving targets, there are times it was bound to fail.

To use it against someone or something, you must predict and understand the relative movements in advance and the decisive moments and you must focus so that you can align every action to explode simultaneously.

Finishing his lecture, the old man once again lied down in the dojo floor.

“Now that I taught you something, go and buy me some fried chicken wings for dinner and clean the place!”

“ehhh~”

---00---

‘I must match my breathing to it, calm mind and heart. Relax the muscles. Forget everything else!’

“HAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!”

Baaaaaaang!

This time there was an even greater resonance.

- Fatal blow struck. Adds 29% damage

Wielding the Claymore in my right hand and the short sword in my left, I continued hacking and slashing the monster frog in front of me.

“I won’t stop until you die!!!

Way of the Dragon God 1st form: Swallow Beheading Mountain Revised edition: One point Destruction!!!!!”

Swinging, Chopping, ramming and stabbing. All my attacks were concentrated into one location.

“Crooooaaaak!!!”

At the end of my attacks, the BOSS frog screamed in agony.

“For the sake of my experience needed for me to level up, DIE!”

Attack filled with my deepest emotions, I slashed my swords at the body of the BOSS frog. The BOSS frog swung its claws but it was too late for I had already jump away to take some distance.

From reading its movement, I reached to the conclusion that it finally reached its limit after receiving tremendous damage from my previous attacks because the BOSS frog’s movements became sluggish as it tried to walk towards me. Its actions have become slower compared from before creating a small gap to aim at.

This is the chance I’ve been waiting for! It’s now or never! It was the right time to give this BOSS frog a nightmare it’ll never forget.

“Kekeke my attack has only just begun! Take thisssss!!!!

AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!”

“Crooooooaaaaaak!!!”

The BOSS frog shrieked with rage and attempted another but this time I used in the last moment to avoid it. I might be able to avoid it by just dodging normally but I choose to use the skill because I want to teleport and attack from its back without it confronting head-on. it might be cowardice but in this life and death moment only idiots would only think of this baseless nonsense.

Successfully landing on its back, I slashed the claymore horizontally towards the red line on its body which is the part

I was attacking before. Then I followed by my short sword which I swung vertically into its body. Right, left, right then left again. Swinging my swords as if the emotion parameter in my body was going overdrive and it took over my body and slashing the monster’s body in madness.

“AHHHHHHHHH!!!”

The sounds of metal clashing coupled with the monster’s shrieked in agony resounded loudly one after another as white and red lights flared through the air.

PENG! BANG! PENG! BANG!

- Fatal blow struck. Adds 46% damage

- Fatal blow struck. Adds 95% damage

- Fatal blow struck. Adds 129% damage

- Fatal blow struck. Adds 167% damage

- Fatal blow struck. Adds 215% damage

…………..

Bullseye! Hitting the small point successively really increased the damage exponentially! The BOSS frog’s tremendous defense almost disappeared completely, making its health falling below 20%.

Nevertheless, it was still a BOSS monster. If it was a normal monster it would have already lost its will to fight but as expected of a BOSS monster. The more it became cornered the fiercer it gets. It was still fighting back but this

time its attack was fiercer and sharper than before. Some of its attacks were slowly hitting me, reducing my

slowly.

‘Just like the saying goes [A cornered rat will bite the cat] there’s nothing scarier than a wounded beast, just like this BOSS frog. This BOSS monster is very tenacious that it’s scary. I need to end this fight immediately or I will be the one to kiss the arriving Death God’

“AHHHHhhhhhhh!!!”

Paying no attention in my own which is slowly reducing, I kept on creaming as I hacked away relentlessly with my swords like a madman. My eyes heated up as my vision was fully concentrated on the monster in front of me.

Although the BOSS monster’s claws still struck my body every now and then, its impact felt like it was only a tug in my body as I didn’t mind it and only focused on swinging my swords. As if adrenaline continued to rush through my body and my brain waves spiked every time when my swords hit their mark.

The rhythm and movements of my sword swings have already exceeded twice the normal speed but for me I still feel it was slow due to my heightened senses so I pushed beyond my limits and continued to attack at faster pace that seemed to overtake even the system’s assistance.

“……AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!”

With this shout I launched the last of my attacks which penetrated the BOSS frog’s chest.

“Crooooooaaaaakkk!”

The gauge of the BOSS stained in deep red and decreased toward the left edge.

Thinking I finally won, I smiled but……

It stopped!

The gauge of the BOSS stopped leaving only ten percent…

As if the BOSS frog showed a cruel smile, it drew its claw high up in the air. Because of the attack I just made, my body was left hanging in mid-air!

I’m dead!?
