Reincarnated into a Game As the Hero’s Friend

Chapter 72



Chapter 72

Mazells sisters POV

What happened? Why am I here?

These two questions crossed my mind when I first woke up as I tried to move my body but to no avail.

I remember being abducted by a non-human creature but I dont know why. I can see many feet on the ground but I cant tell how many people these feet belong to.

The place where they hit me when I resisted was still throbbing in pain.

I know that Im currently outside the village and Im being carried on the shoulder by someone. But the second I tried to think about what was going on, it was like a mist covering my thoughts.

Dad and Mom were seriously injured. I wonder if they are fine.

Even since a person wearing a hood touched me I can barely gather my thoughts. Just what has happened to me?

After running through the bushes for a while, they stopped in a place quite far from the village and threw me to the ground. Ouch.

Around here

The time

They are saying something Are they talking to each other? I dont know.

The heros.

Yes, Im sure shes

Ouch. I think my hair was pulled to lift my head.

Make her drink

Using her body

My mouth is forced open and a stone-like something is slowly getting close to me. Whats that

.and thats the end of this girl

resurrection of

Huh? End? Am I going to die?

No! Mom Dad I wont be able to see them again

Bigbrother.

Immediately after I muttered that, I heard a thud and I fell forward.

Welners POV

As I ran, I noticed something. The direction Mazells mother was pointing at is in the opposite direction of Finnoi.

That means their destination isnt Finnoi but then where? Think! In the game, whats in that direction

.The Counting Star Tower!

Currently, the Counting Star Tower is still the demons den. There is also no human settlement in its surroundings. That means if shes brought there, only the hero party is strong enough to rescue her.

For better or worse, they were running through the bushes so they left a lot of trails like broken branches and trampled grasses so following their track isnt difficult. However, if I just kept chasing them, I dont know if I could even catch up to them.

If their destination is really Counting Star Tower, they will need to go around the village. Rather than continue chasing them like this, it will be better for me to take a shortcut. I ignored the scratch on my cheek caused by a branch and kept running.

She must have gotten kidnapped right around the time I arrived in the village. The enemies probably dont think that they are being chased so they will hopefully lower their guard. As long as I dont give up, I will make it in time.

After running for a while, I found freshly stomped grass. I saved a few minutes using the shortcut! Im lucky that the moon is shining brightly tonight so the road isnt pitch dark.

Then I finally spotted them. A robbed figure is lifting a girl by her hair. Maybe shes unconscious, thats why she isnt resisting. The girl and the robbed figure are surrounded by 3 other figures. Two of them look like they are swordsmen. I dont know about the last one since hes wearing a hood.

The other hand of the robbed figure is approaching the girls face. He must be planning to do something bad to the girl. Without stopping my track, I raised my spear

REACH HIM!!!

[Spearmanship] skill exists in this world but [Javelin] skill doesnt exist. That means [Spearmanship] skill must also include the ability to throw a spear. The design of a throwing spear or javelin is different from the normal spear. Im taking a bit of a gamble by throwing a normal spear but it seems like it went well.

The tip of my spear precisely pierced the robbed figures face and he fell backward. The girl caught by his hand also ended up falling with him though, so I need to apologize to her later.

I drew my sword, rushed to the confused hooded figure, and slashed at him. Swordsmanship isnt my forte but since my sword is of high quality, it easily slashed through the hooded figure. Blood or rather bodily fluid splattered on the ground.

It seems like I failed to kill him with that strike, but if I try to attack him again, I will leave a huge opening on myself.

Thinking so, I just kicked him far away from the girl. I heard a groan similar to a frog being stomped but I ignored it.

The remaining two figures also drew their sword and attacked me but I dodged them reflexively. This must be the result of my training. For now, its good as long as they didnt try to attack the girl.

I felt that the movements of these two were strange but I dont have time to think about it. I closed the distance and punched one of my enemies in his face with my hand that was still gripping the hilt of my sword. Then, I swung my sword to the side. Fighting with my fist reminds me of my school days.

Sparks fly as my sword hits the sword of my last opponent. I used the momentum of the blow to move to a position where I can protect the girl behind me. The guy that I punched earlier stayed silent. Its best if he was unconscious. Im not that good at using swords so I want to reduce their fighting force as much as possible.

I smell a rotten smell coming from the hand that just punched my opponent. Wait, the rotten smell?? The face of the creature I just punched was finally revealed as the moonlight shone on him.

WWhy are they here!?

Dead Swordsman. They shouldnt appear here. No, wait. They did appear as rare monsters in the Counting Star Tower in the dungeon unlocked after the hero defeated Beliulace. Does that mean these guys arent Beliulaces subordinates?

But the demons that attacked the village are reptile-type demons that appeared in the Great Temple dungeon so they should be Beliulaces subordinates. Something is going on here.

Though puzzled, I kept swinging my sword. When one received my sword, the other attacked me. Damn it. They are undead so hitting their face is useless. Whats done is done though.

Im using a sword, not a spear. I also didnt bring a shield, and am now facing 2 opponents at the same time. This is tough.

The battle continues with me attacking my opponent and dodging their strikes. Sparks flew and crisp sounds resounded as my opponents swords hit my armor.

Argh.. damn it! Fighting two rare monsters with my bad swordsmanship with this tired body, are you kidding me!?

5 strikes, 10 strikes, 15 strikes, sparks flew as our swords kept clashing. My hands are going numb but I kept attacking without faltering. I parried any thrust, and when a sword was swinging down at me, I twisted my wrist so that I could break my opponents stance. I must say that considering that Im fighting two-on-one, Im putting up a great fight.

When I focus my attention on one opponent, the other will immediately rush to me so I must pay attention to both of them. Its mentally taxing. Gradually, Im being pushed back and my sturdy armor is the sole reason I havent gotten any injuries yet.

But stamina-wise Im definitely at a disadvantage. Maybe I should bait them by showing an opening on purpose. I might get injured, but at least, I can also cause them to suffer damage As this thought crossed my mind, I heard a faint voice, like a roar.

I quickly swung my sword, turned around, and then let go of my sword. I grabbed the girl who was still lying on the ground with my left hand, grabbed it with my right hand, and moved away from the place.

Immediately after, a thunderous roar struck my ear followed by shock waves and heat hitting my back.

With the girl still in my arms, I rolled on the ground while distancing myself. Ouch. I saw the guy I kicked earlier standing up and pointing his palm toward me. So, hes a Lizard Magician. The earlier attack was probably fire magic.

Hes a reptile demon so is he Beliulaces subordinate? Well, that doesnt matter though.

Right after I stopped rolling on the ground, the Dead Swordsman rushed at me. I can understand their reasoning, but they played a bad move. While enduring the pain in my back, I found a place where I can stabilize my foothold and aim properly.

The reason why my body moved right after I saw the Dead Swordsman rushing over here must be either the result of my training or the effect of my Skill.

Slash

My spear pierced the armor and torso of the Dead Swordsman coming from my right side and went through its back

Yup, this is more of my style.

My back hurts but I can handle it. I grinned as I readjusted my grip on the spear.
