A Girl's Life in a Gaming World

"Five goblins breached on the left!!" Elise exclaimed as she threw a dagger to kill one of them. Time passed, the numbers of arrows and magic flying from the sky were gradually dwindling. Yet there are still plenty of goblins charging at them. It was as if they weren't dying. 

"There's no end for them..." Akkar muttered as he cleaves the space in half, splitting the goblin's bodies that breached their frontline. 

"Commander, our attacks can't keep up!!!" The tanks on the front are on the verge of collapsing. While their main force is short on mana. 

He knows... He can see it... But there is nothing left he can do. He already used everything he could think of just to survive this long.

And things got even worse when Elder Jin has told him that they may or may not win this fight any longer. Since Elder Jin's perspective is hampered by the forest fire. They can no longer determine the situation of Alex and Ezekiel. 

He has told him that it's fine if everyone leaves the village when the gates haven't fallen yet. While the village guards will hold the goblins off so that they can have enough time to evacuate. 

Elder Jin asking him to retreat must be the sign that the tutorial has ended. And it should be fine to leave the village since the villagers who evacuated first are already safe. So he thought that the battle they are fighting right now is no longer a tutorial. They must have triggered something like the goblins going berserk. That changed the flow of the game. It might be a hidden quest or a special scenario. Yet they will only know when the fight ends. 

"Commander, what do we do!!??" A tank getting pushed back cried out for help. 

Akkar did not answer and just lifted his great ax from his shoulders. He is exhausted, everyone is... his voice is already hoarse from all the shouting he is doing. But after all they have done, how can he tell everyone to give up and run.

He hasn't even lost his faith on Alex and everyone around him. So he chose to gamble everyone's lives instead. A lot has already been sacrificed and died. The people left in here probably wouldn't mind dying once. 

That's why Akkar stood behind their, frontline stopping all the goblins that entered. It will be a race of time; can they kill the commander first. Or will their tanks break first? And right now, he is their last line of defense. Once he falls, it will be a feast of slaughter. 

"I'll take care of it. Tell them to keep attacking. But if I die, tell everyone to retreat and leave the village in an instant. I'm bringing 500 explosive potions with me. It should be enough to hold them for a while." Akkar muttered to Elise as he pushed her back to the rear. He then strode towards the rampaging goblins alone. 

All this time, he's been keeping his health at 50% in case he gets careless and dies. But this time, it doesn't matter; he can go all out. He'll show them what a berserker in death's bed can do. 

The strength he will show this time will be different from the strength he showed on the duel. He did level up quite a lot in this battle. 

While marching Akkar's gaze hovered deep inside the enemy. He shouted. "Hey, you're still alive!!??" Unexpectedly he could see Hal's sword dancing between the goblins. Hal's armor was already broken and his clothes was in tatters. There were no uninjured spots on his body. Cuts, stab wounds, and broken arrows were all over his body. If this wasn't a game he won't be moving an inch by now. 

Hal was so focused on fighting the goblins that he did not even notice Akkar calling for him. 

He is using all resources he has just to survive this long. The wounds all over his body made it harder for him to stand. However, he can endure it!! He can still keep going!! He will fight till the end!!!

In just a short amount of time, Hal has already grown stronger. He laughed as he brandished his great ax. He did not hold back as his great ax crushed the goblin's body like a bug on the ground. Deadly blows after deadly blows were dealt against the goblins as he slowly strode towards Hal.

"Hey, not ba..." Akkar arrived behind Hal, but before he could even pat his shoulders. Hal's sword came flying at him clashing with his weapon. 

"Calm down, it's me!!" Akkar uttered as he brought Hal's weapon to the ground with his strength. And lifted his ax up to kill a goblin coming behind him. 

Hal exclaimed as he continued fighting the goblins "F*ck, don't scare me like that!! I thought I was done for." He suddenly got goosebumps when he felt something tall appear behind him.

"I couldn't stand watching you alone." He laughed as he kicked a goblin to the side. 

"But not, bad... How did you survive??" He asked as he stood shoulder to shoulder with Hal. 

"Sister Elise grabbed a lot of healing potions and mana potions and gave them to me. If it weren't for those, I would have died already." Amongst the melee fighters that charged ahead, he was the only one remaining. Sucking up to someone strong has never failed him yet. That's why he's trying to be on the good side of Akkar. 

"How many did she give??" Akkar asked. With Hal on his side, he isn't having that much of a hard time as he thought. They were still being hit from time to time on all sides. But having someone watching his back has lessened the burden of fighting on all sides. 

"100..." Hal mumbled as he moved a little further away from him. 

BANGGGG!!!!

A poor goblin was crushed to the ground with a vertical slash from his great ax. "Huh!? Isn't that too much!!? They only gave me 20 healing potions and 100 explosive potions." It felt like they were expecting him to die and kill as many as he could. 

Hal was suddenly covered in cold sweats as he killed goblins around them. It was as if he was caught cheating with Elise. 

"I'll give you half I only have aroun..."

BOOOOMMMMMMMM!!!!!!! 

"What?" Hal almost stumbled to the ground. When he was suddenly interrupted by an ear-splitting explosion like a loud clap of thunder in the distance. 

Their heads simultaneously turned to where the sound came from. But what met their eyes was a bright flash of light. Accompanied by a rush of heat and was followed by a huge pressure wave and the rumbling sound of the explosion. 

Hal's leg shook and came to a stop as he stared at the incoming explosion. It was like a nuclear bomb that no matter how fast you run, you'll still get hit by it. 

"F*CK!!! WHAT ARE YOU STANDING THERE FOR!!! RUN!!!" Akkar clasped Hal's clothes and ran with all his might.
