The Author's POV

Chapter 306

—Bang!

"Huek!"

Blocking the attack of a demon, Hein let out a groan. Even then, his footing remained glued to the ground.

Solid and unmoving.

tootle-too~

Right as Hein blocked the attack of the demon, a melodious tune sounded.

Following this, three wolves suddenly appeared out of nowhere as Ava stood behind them with a green flute in her hand.

A subtle golden glow exuded from her body.

"Ava, get one of the wolves to aim for the leg."

Standing behind, Leopold squinted

"Get your other two wolves to attack the other legs and arm. You don't have to worry about finding the core."

In order to kill a demon, they needed to destroy their core, and finding the core was the challenging part of killing a demon. However, this only applied to titled demons.

Untitled demons were not powerful enough to develop a core, and therefore, they would die by simple decapitation of the head.

SHIIIING—!

"Khhh!"

On the other hand, standing next to Leopold, I slashed towards every demon that came my way.

Usually, I would've gotten rid of every demon in my vicinity with just a simple movement of my sword.

Unfortunately, I could no longer do that.

At least for now.

From the moment I had left Malvin's workshop and heard his words, I realized just how flawed my swordsmanship was.

Simply put, I could no longer act as I did before.

I needed to change, and what better opportunity than right now?

This being the first wave, and the wave filled with the weakest demons, I had to make good use of this opportunity to get as much practice as possible.

Spurt—!

Slashing forward, my blade slashed through the body of a weaker ranked demon, cutting him into two equal pieces.

"Ueek!"

Black blood spilt all over my clothes, and face.

Clenching tightly onto the grip of my sword, I stomped my foot on the ground and twisted my torso.

Then, releasing the tension in my torso, I slashed towards another demon.

"Ueeeek!"

Slowly, my body count started to increase, and so was my scope of time.

I just killed, killed, and killed.

My emotions started to dumb down, and my body started to move on its own. Moving towards wherever a demon was.

Unbeknownst to me, before I knew it, I had lost count of how many demons I had killed, and standing in front of me were three demons.

Of the three, one stood out particularly, as a pressure rivalling mine exuded from its body.

"Oy, ye two follow me."

Bemus beckoned Smallsnake and Ryan with his hand.

"…yea?"

Though confused, both Ryan and Smallsnake followed Bemus's instructions and walked to where he was.
