Chapter 10: The ‘Reinforcement’ Arrived
Chapter 10: The ‘Reinforcement’ Arrived
In the end, having felt my impending death before, I still climbed up this rock.
As I stood on the rock, I suddenly felt like I had survived a disaster.
The Ghoul's large hand was less than a meter away from me. Just a few seconds more...
And I would have been captured by the Ghoul and slapped to death.
I touched my forehead and wiped off the sweat from my nervousness.
I slumped down the rock and let out a long sigh of relief.
"Roar"
After the Ghoul saw me climb up the rock, it started to roar angrily.
Looking up at the summit of the stone, it started brandishing its big hand.
Wishing it was possible to attack me.
However, after brandishing his hands a dozen times, it realized that it didn't have any effect on me who was on the rock.
As for me who was standing on the stone, having seen that the Ghoul couldn't do anything to me no matter what...
I felt a pleasant feeling in my heart.
"Ho ho ho ho ho ho"
In my good mood, I found that even my laughter had started to become more human-like.
After noticing this change, I became even more proud.
I saw that the Ghoul under the rock couldn't catch me and was going crazy.
I even started to dance.
"Come and catch me, idiot! You can't catch me, right? !"
As I danced, I used my hands and feet to make an insulting gesture.
When the Ghoul saw how pleased I was, it became extremely angry.
It began to slap the rock fiercely in front of me.
"Dong, dong, dong"
Such a large yellow granite stone, weighing at least tens of tons, started to tremble from the impact.
I, who was standing on the stone, almost fell from the trembling.
I quickly lay down on the stone to stabilize my body.
Just when I thought I was safe and wanted to pat my chest, something happened to the stone under my body.
I noticed the Ghoul attacking this hard granite rock at all costs. Unexpectedly, it started to crack.
And the cracks on the rock were getting bigger and bigger as the Ghoul continued its attack.
Faced with such a change, I started to feel afraid.
After all, there were many natural undead creatures in this world.
There were high-level undead creatures like the bone dragon, as well as low-level undead creatures like the Ghoul.
Compared to high-level undead creatures, low-level undead creatures had extremely low intelligence.
Whenever they encountered an enemy, they would always use the most primitive method to fight the enemy. Even if the enemy was stronger than them, they wouldn't retreat until it was a matter of life and death.
This kind of behavior was described as stubborn and tenacious, or, to put it bluntly, one-track-mindedness.
Obviously, this Ghoul in front of me was such a creature.
I did not doubt the purity of its bloodline.
I believed that even without using external force under these circumstances, the Ghoul would continue to smack the rock.
Until it had shaken me off the stone.
Seeing that the cracks on the stone were increasing, I became more and more anxious.
I even began to put my palms together and say to the Ghoul, "Brother Ghoul, stop slapping. I'm afraid of you, so please let me off!"
However, the Ghoul turned a deaf ear and continued slapping the stone with its palm that was as big as a banana leaf.
"Dong, dong, dong"
It was as though it was a merciless slapping machine.
As I watched the cracks on the stone grow larger and larger, I calculated in my heart.
There were less than three minutes until the stone completely disintegrated.
"Kacha~ Kacha~"
Just as I thought I was doomed this time, a sound suddenly entered my ears.
I turned my head and saw a figure suddenly appear in the forest 300 meters away.
That figure was repeatedly rubbing his muscular body against a large tree.
Seeing this familiar action, a name immediately appeared in my heart.
The Wild Boar King!
I looked down at the Ghoul that was continuously smacking the rock and then looked at the Wild Boar King that was clearly marking its territory in the distant forest.
I rolled my eyes. I've got it!
If I don't do anything and let the Ghoul continue slapping like this, the rock will break sooner or later.
I might as well give it a try.
Find an opponent for this one-track-minded Ghoul.
So, I estimated the distance between me and the Wild Boar King.
Hmm, less than 300 meters!
With this distance of 300 meters, I was confident that the Ghoul wouldn't be able to catch up to me.
After figuring out a way, I decided to act quickly.
I didn't want the Wild Boar King to leave this place quickly and go to another place to mark its territory.
I stood up on the rock and walked toward the other side of the rock.
Looking at the height of four to five meters, my heart trembled.
In the end, under the threat of the Ghoul, I finally gritted my teeth.
I closed my eyes and jumped down.
"Pu"
After jumping down, my first reaction wasn't to check if I had any hands on me, but to run.
I ran toward the direction of the Wild Boar King!
That was because I also heard the sound of the Ghoul hitting the rocks after I jumped down.
"Roar"
As expected, before I could run a few meters away, I heard the angry roar of the Ghoul behind me.
"Dong, dong, dong"
After the roar, I heard the heavy footsteps of the Ghoul.
I didn't choose to turn around when I heard the heavy footsteps.
Instead, I resolutely ran in the direction of the Wild Boar King.
300 meters... 150 meters... 50 meters...
The short distance of 300 meters was like a natural chasm to me.
In the end, because of the tension and intense movement, sweat even dripped into my eyes. It was very uncomfortable.
But I didn't dare to reach out to wipe it away. Instead, I quickened my pace.
Because I knew that behind me was the Ghoul that wanted to kill me.
50 meters... 30 meters... 10 meters...
"Hey"
When I was less than 10 meters away from the Wild Boar King, I shouted loudly.
When I saw the Wild Boar King raise its head, I immediately fell to the ground and rolled.
I rolled into a small pit beside the road.
The small pit was just big enough to fit my entire body.
After the Wild Boar King heard a sudden sound, it raised its head.
When it saw that, its eyes turned red.
'The Ghoul next door actually ran into its territory without permission!?'
'Normally, that one and I wouldn't get into each other's business, but today, not only did it leave the cemetery, but it also charged at me aggressively. It looked like it was going to start a massacre.'
'Was it provoking me?'
'Or was it trying to kill me and snatch my territory?'
The Wild Boar King didn't see me hiding in the pit. It only saw its old rival, the Ghoul, challenging it.
The Wild Boar King was furious. It immediately lowered its head and kept stomping on its front hooves.
Following that, it charged forward.
"Dong-fu-dong-fu-fu"
The Wild Boar King's thick limbs were moving at a high speed. It even shook the ground.
I, who was lying in the pit, felt as if I saw a car running at 80 mph.
