Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

Chapter 471 Slaughterer Duo



[Rein's POV: ]

Alright~! We were finally inside the dungeon with proper fun monsters!

'Good, good ~! They look stronge-strong!'

============

[Poison weasels] ✗

~~~> Goood! They are better than the previous ones!

~~~> There seems to be a hundred and twenty-three here~! And they are just the replica of their original (Yellow) ranked self!

~~~> Go on master! They are easy and their poison skills are nothing before your amazing poison skill!

============

Even my eyes had the same thoughts!

"Hehehe… hahaha! Let's go Nept!"

-Kuuuuuu!

Just like every time I called my dear weapon out, a sharp stream of water gushed out of my hand and molded in a form of a scythe.

We had really come a long way after bonding in that tomb.

"Let's start~."

The area around me was a plain grassland and the cute small creatures with black eyes and poisonous purple bodies with white stripes all over their body looked attractive!

But this was their last day~.

-Swish!

-Khachak!

-Booooooooom!

"Done~!"

The creatures were like vegetables so cutting them with my sharp Nept was pretty easy and fun!

This was a good start and as I moved through the grass, and sliced their bodies with the scythe, the sensation of the realistic bodies being sliced, the thrilling feeling of flesh being cut down by the edge of the blade… ahh~!

'This is what I was talking about bitches~!'

"Muhahahaha!"

The tingling flesh and poison of the little creatures felt good too but more than this sensation, the heartwarming feeling as I saw my darling use his bow in this appearance once again was…

"Ah! Yes~!"

There he was, standing with one of his countless bows, in a stance that I hadn't seen for a whole damn week after our engagement, and as I looked around, there they were, dead bodies of more than two hundred creatures, similar and different from the cuties I sliced.

He was starting, so it would be more fun than I thought!

"Challenge." He said, a smile of pure excitement painted on his hot face.

"Numbers?" I asked as I moved away from him with my shadow travel skill and reached another group of creatures, this time, a group of (Orange) ranked (Blue earthworms).

[[ "Numbers, types, time, and… headshot." ]]

[[ "Headshots hmm? Let's add creatures sliced in a number of pieces too, bastard." ]]

[[ "...ok fine. No headshots. Reward? Three?" ]]

[[ "No thanks. We already have one with two coins going on. This will reflect in points so two for this one too. Now start!" ]]

-Swish…!

I moved, my speed so fast it created a gust of winds, and as I moved, the force that was generated was all transferred to the tip of my scythe.

-Swish, swish, swish!

I moved, the creature before me, the disgusting looking creatures… yak. I just cut the creatures off and used my darkness attribute (Earthquake) to pull the blue squishy creatures out.

-Shhhhhh-shak!

-Thud, thud, thud.

They were disgusting but easier to deal with even with their hard bodies and earthly defense.

So, quickly finishing these some hundred small fries, I moved on to the bigger one that I found some distance away while searching the area through Branwen from the sky.

Eon, that bastard, I was seeing from above so I knew he wasn't moving from his place and just killing creatures of any and all fucking rank with his absurdly powerful arrows.

'That cocky bastard!'

This plains were too favorable to him! And the fucking creatures were also just roaming the plains like this was actually some kind of dungeon!

It was disadvantageous for me but I wasn't going to back down. At the very least, this match would be a tie!

So, I moved and found the (Hollow Ox), a (Blue) ranked creature, and quickly used my enchanting speech skill to freeze the creature on its spot.

-Swish!

Killing it in two slashes, I moved ahead and reached a (Grassland viper) roaming around some thick bushes.

But before I used any magic or skill to attack the creature, I heard something moving through the air, and as soon as I perceived that thing…

-Swiiiiiiiiiiiish-Khachk-Boooooom!

A blue arrow of light flew past me, went straight inside the open mouth of the snake, and then its head blasted.

[[ "Fuck off bastard! That was mine!" ]]

I knew he was smirking as I shouted that but I couldn't waste time here.

And from as much as I knew him…

'Alright, darling.'

-Swish!

-Shhhhhhhhhhhhh!

-Pitssssssssss…!

-Khachak!

[[ "Oyyyy?!" ]]

I moved to the very other side from where I found the viper and there was another same snake but this one was a (Grass cobra). Its weakness was fire and I knew the next arrow releasing from his bow would be just that.

'If you steal mine, be prepared for the consequences. Hehe.'

-Swish!

I moved to the back this time, and there was a cluster of (Green) ranked (Bloody wasps).

"[Air steps]!"

There were somewhere around fifty of them but I just moved through the air, used them as steps when needed, and sliced them into pieces. They weren't ugly but their eyes weren't pretty!

-Swiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiish~!

-Booooooooom!

It was close by and this time, that bastard used some kind of explosive arrow. Must be a group.

[[ A band of black gazelle master. All were obliterated in that explosion. ]]

See! I was right!

'Anyway… an explosion hmm?'

-Swish!

I moved to the northwest this time, and there was a family of (Yellow deers) having their peaceful time.

There were ten or so creatures here and excluding the three babies, all of them were (Blue) ranked.

They were weak too so… well.

(Blue darkdrop)

-Boooooooooooooom!

They weren't much work with my special water-darkness explosive spell. This amazing cutie could very well even destroy an (Indigo) ranked creature.

'Sadly it eats up a lot of Mana…'

Anyway, I finished them with that explosion. Wasn't as fun as I thought though.

-Swish!

Welp, after that, we continued slashing, blasting, ultimately killing whatever fall into our sight.

-Swish!

I moved through the plains on the northern side and when there was nothing to kill from his spot, he moved to the south and continued killing the creatures on that side.

Our goal was to finish the creatures as fast as possible. Preferably before nightfall.

It was difficult but midway through our killings… I forgot we were doing something like this competition.

I just moved, and moved, and just moved from place to place, slicing, slashing, bisecting, chopping, and blasting creatures, and bathing in their illusionary blood.

It was too realistic though. Unnecessarily realistic.

I didn't think much though. It was fun slicing these creatures.

Most of them were weak but there were many fun ones too.

The (Silver leopard), (Guardian toad), and (Black mane lion) that I encountered were all (Indigo) ranked and were all pretty tough.

The fight I had with them was genuinely fun!

Sad thing these all creatures were illusions. Had they been a bit more realistic and had their wills intact they would have been even more fun to play with~.

I killed them. It took a bit longer than others though.

It was fun but… that was the end on my side. I had reached the boundary of this illusion dungeon and I had to go back at this time.

-Swish!

My side was empty but my dear darling was still going on, covering the whole west part with his south one. That bastard was ahead of me but sadly for him, I was going to win~!

"Hehehahahah!"

I knew he was seeing me and that bastard had killed creatures without leaving his place most of the time.

He called it his hitzone. And the fucking thing had a radius of more than a few kilometers.

Just the fact that he could hit and kill things with his magic arrows, practically magic spells molded in a form of an arrow that could travel that far and have an even greater effect than normal, was practically absurd~.

'The spectators must definitely be bleeding tears of absurd excitement, hehe.'

Anyway, killing was fun and the sun was only setting so I moved to the eastern side and started finishing the creatures there.

It was fun~. But the night was near.

He was on his killing spree, uninterrupted by things like speaking in the middle like me right now, haaa…

Anyway, I went to the other side, killed a bunch of weak creatures, a bunch of flying creatures, a bunch of crawlers, a lot of cute ones, and a lot more ugly ones.

It was a fun kill time and though he wasn't having fun like me he sure was serious about winning this one.

'Sad for him, hehe.'

It wasn't his fault but both of us knew I had won this round with just the sheer number of creatures I killed.

There were more of the weak ones on the path that I took so it was easy to move faster.

It was a fact that he killed stronger ones than me but I knew from how my current area was filled with stronger monsters, I was going to match his strong headcount.

'My bastard luck showed its powers this time, hahaha!'

This was fun, and I knew he would try to interfere with me but I had already taken care of that.

[[ "It was cheating sister Elle~!" ]]

Celes was angry but it wasn't like I was doing anything.

I just used my [Shadow clone] skill and I only ordered them to hinder him, so the clones were acting on their own.

He was having difficulty as he had to kill multiple of my fake clones that although weren't as good at copying me as the perfect doppelgangers we killed in the forest, they sure were strong enough to hinder my beloved darling.

So he didn't steal my prey this time and when our little competition ended, and as the strange moonless red sky of night greeted us, we were standing before each other, his hawt face sad from losing their little bet.

I killed with fun I won, he killed without fun he lost. Simple mathematics.

The slaughter had ended from our side and I knew, we both knew, the spectators must have had quite the heated debate among themselves.

We did slaughter a few thousand creatures in these plains after all. 'Shock' would be a little word to describe their reactions.

But that was them… I won our little match but the dungeon wasn't cleared yet.

We definitely had killed the thousands of creatures here, but, the main boss, the last part of the dungeon clearance, was now going to start…

'And I'm not going to talk with you bunch for a loooooong time! Hump!

It's too much distraction!!'

Alright. Ba-bye~!
