Ch 3. Waking up

Waking up

 

“Where am I?”

 

I  shout out instinctively.

 

“Your in the soldier`s first aid station. Its good that you woke up, are you feeling any pain?”

 

The person who responded to my question was my friend Wayne.

Kimble Wayne.

Just like me, he was also 15 years old with a height of around 185 cm tall and had golden hair that sways in the wind.

 

“Yo Wayne! I`m feeling some serious pain in my side”

 

When I responded like that

 

“I thought you would say that. Although it was the wooden part of the axe, your lucky that you didn`t die from the Orc King`s blow.

 

Looking at me with his blue eye, he smiled.

 

“What happened to Orc King”

“Afterwards, because my spear pierced its eye, somehow everybody was able to kill it. Otherwise, I wouldn’t`t have been able to carry you all the way here”

“Wow, that’s incredible! Wayne, looks like you have the number one achievement!”

“No no no, I think its you, Pat, if it wasn`t for your action my spear wouldn`t have that effect. You were even praised by the commanding officer”

“Noo, I was blown away and lost consciousness. I was so uncool~, perhaps I would have been alright if I was muscle macho like you~”

“I don’t know what a muscle macho is but it sounds like your complimenting me. Well, no, it was impressive that you were able to reach behind the Orc King.”

(Cool guys don’t worry about the minor details!)

“Its thanks to my presence being small, that allowed me to reach its blind spot!”

“Certainly it’s always hard to tell where you are,  Pat!!”

“Right”

 

Two people laugh

 

“Ahh it hurtss”

 

When I laughed, it made a stir in my side

 

“Lie down and get some rest! I’ll tell the captain that you woke up.”

 

Saying that Wayne leaves.

When I look to my side there was a considerable amount of injured soldiers. In addition to the back, there were also soldiers covered with a woven mat.

I wonder how many persons got killed or injured?

A group of Orcs was discovered by some adventurers so the kingdom`s 1st Army 3rd Battalion was issued an order to attack because the group of Orcs needed to subjugated quickly so the people of this nation could be rescued and prevent any injury.

While thinking of that I closed my eyelids again.

Ch2 . Blown Away

I don’t remember how much Orc`s I cut down.

The back of my head was still throbbing with pain.

The corpse of my comrades and Orc`s litter the ground.

Finally, we reached the point were almost all of this group of Orc were defeated but from the back, something came before us. Compared to normal Orc`s this one was twice its size, roughly 3 meters tall, it had a strong man-like figure, additional where did it find that weapon, it held an axe like a lumberjack.

 

“Orc King……”

 

Someone muttered.

 

“Archers!! Shoot your arrows at that bastard!”

 

The commanding officer of this squad shouted.

The archers nock their arrows quickly and fired.

The arrows reached the Orc King however they never pierced its skin.

 

“Im-impossible!! How the hell is its skin so hard”

 

Someone muttered feebly.

 

“Its…. Its coming! Everbody charge!”

 

The Orc King slowly walked this way with a confident stride.

Raising its axe overhead, it’s certain can cut off a soldier’s head in one swing.

A soldier receives the full force of the axe with their sword.

However, compared to what the soldier was expected, the strength behind the axe forced down his sword down towards his head, smashing open his head like a  crushed pomegranate.

After that, I thought the scene was like something from hell.

My comrade’s lost their lives one after another. Like this Orc king was unstoppable.

 

“Its eyes! Aim for that bastard’s eyes!!”

 

At the commanding officer orders, the archers and spear soldiers changed their strategy and aimed there but it won`t hit because the Orc King moves quite well and is also tall.

 

“I seriously don`t know whats going on?”

 

I observed my surrounding while speaking to myself, a thought suddenly came to mind. I have my eye on that thing.

I saw one large Orc that was already killed holding a similar axe.

Taking up that Orc`s axe, I run forwards the Orc King in a roundabout way, stealthy creeping up towards the Orc`s back.

(For heaven sake please don`t make its Achilles tendon hard!)

I aimed for the back of the Orc`s King left ankle with a golf swing, swoosh!

 

“Gyaaaa!”

 

The Orc King for the first time shouted out in pain, its left knee fell on the ground due to

lack of support!

 

“Yesssss!”

 

Instinctively I shouted out in joy due to succeeding.

 

“Hurry up and escape!”

 

Wayne shouted.

Before I knew it, in pain the Orc King`s axe was swung around and it came just before my flank.*

(I`m in his blind spot! It’s not like I`m in front of him!)*

The Orc King aims and charges with an instant thought.

It seems it wasn`t perfect though, as it was the handle not the edge of the axe that violent sank into my side.

I was blown away and my comrades spear​ pierce the Orc`s eye.

I then lose consciousness due to the pain.
