Chapter 7
Not easy way to kill
The dust arose like clouds of smoke, trailing behind the soldier’s back as they rapidly dashed forward to clash with their enemies.
Wasssaahhhhhhh!!!
Their screams of courage envelop the land of blood.
Before the two assaulting forces came in contact with each other, the arrows and different kinds of magical attacks were raining overhead towards the opposing sides.
People cried in pain and monsters were howling in agony when the arrows pierced their flesh and fireballs burnt their skin.
Bang!
The impact was so strong that it generated a loud collision when the vanguards of the opposing team finally made contact with each other. The scraping noises of metals, claws, and any solidified magical energies of weapons and shields were like melodies of death.
They knew that at this moment, their lives weren’t in their hands. Just a single mistake and it would end their breaths.
.....
Swoosh!
An arrow passed in a hairsbreadth distance from his eyes. Yeman felt the death-god’s hand was embracing his heart as the chill of death crawled upon his spine. Any moment from now, with a single mistake, that hand would squish his heart into a pulp.
Without stopping, he rushed forward like a mad lad.
He knew that it was a ‘do or die’ situation. And for him to survive in this unknown world, he needed luck!
“Much, much luuuuuck!”
Yaaaaaaaaaahhhhh!!!
Perhaps the warcry coming from everyone around him aroused his determination to survive; he also screamed while strengthening his hand’s grip on his spear, then summoned his strength for a purpose of doing a sudden stab to the leaping [Ratman] in front.
The tip of the spear hit and pierced the monster’s chest. It then dangled on the spear-tip while black muddy blood sprayed onto his face— painted it with gruesome blood from the monster.
In his red agate eyes, the scene of the battle reflected on it, the fireballs and colorful magical powers were like the firework display from his former world. But at this moment, these seemingly beautiful fireworks were not fun to watch as it brought death to everyone who was unlucky enough to get hit by it.
Yeman twitched his brows when he noticed that the monster was still alive.
-42
Yeman saw the red text again. But right now the damage was much higher than the first time he fought one of them. That’s not all, he felt a little stronger now.

It piqued his interest when the monster’s health points were unceasingly decreasing as more blood splattered around.
He remembered the game he used to play. He believed that the monster was under the effect of bleeding.
But Yeman couldn’t wait for long for it to empty. He retreated his spear and stabbed it again.
-38
0/100
The monster’s health points finally reached zero points.
And bright green energy which only he could see was absorbed by his body. And the number, +50% Exp appeared in his vision.
The battle continued. Everyone of them shouted and summoned their courage to steel their resolve.
Not far from him, he saw the beautiful cold-looking girl quickly hacking every monster around her.
Her figure from time to time would disappear and reappear behind the enemy. Maybe because his eyes weren’t sharp enough to follow her movements that’s why she looked like she blinked every time she moved to kill the enemy.
Her two gleaming daggers were splattering muddy black blood every time they trailed the monster’s body, drawing two horizontal wounds.
Her face was as cold as the glacier in the north pole on his former world, while her eyes glinted and screamed for survival.
He saw her figure disappear again. No, she kicked the ground and leaped into the air. When she descended, her foot landed on the monster’s head. It tried to get rid of her by twisting its head but she already leaped again and landed at the back of the next monster, without wasting time, her two daggers dig deeper into the monster unguarded back.
Yeman wanted to warn her when another monster leaped behind her, but before his mouth produced a sound, she already kicked the monster’s back to unbury her daggers.
Blood splattered once again after she successfully retreated back her weapon. She let herself rolled backward on the ground to evade the leaping monster that was coming to sneak behind her.
Yeman wondered if she had eyes on her back.
The monster passed over, and the cold-looking beauty, without wasting time, stomped her feet on the ground and hopped in the air. She threw her dagger above her to empty her hands and produce fire from both.
Then she fired it towards the monster who recently tried to sneak behind her. The monster was charred in a second when its body was devoured by fire.
Her figure was rotating in the air and she landed on the ground on her knee. The two daggers were expertly caught by her hands.
She proceeded to kill another monster. Yeman gulped when her cold eyes caught him gawking.
Her cold eyes were sending chills to his spine. He resolved himself and strengthened the grip to his weapon then rushed to one of the monsters. He didn’t want to be the next victim of those two gleaming daggers of hers.
However,
“Fodders! The fallen town gate is in your face! Bring your squad and let’s proceed to our deathbed!” They heard the commander’s pulsely shouts.
“Eman, let’s go!” Uncle Ronny called.
“Y-Yes!”
He responded, and saw the guy named Leo and Stonehard followed after Uncle Ronny. The cold looking beauty also did.
Yeman was about to follow when he saw a soldier currently fighting a [Ratman] monster 15 metres from him, on his left. The soldier’s shortsword met the slashing dagger of the [Ratman]. They tried to push each other using their bare strength but the result was a stalemate.
Another Ratmen appeared at the soldier’s back. The soldier didn’t notice it as he was still trying to push back the enemy in front. Everyone on the soldier’s squad was busy fighting with their enemies.
‘No one can help him,’ Yeman thought. His brows wrinkled as he imagined that the soldier was in danger. Using the spear in his hands, he quickly dashed forward to the [Ratman] that appeared behind the soldier.
The [Ratman] stopped his motive of stabbing the back of the soldier when it noticed someone dashing while pointing the tip of the spear.
“!!”
Exclamation points appeared above [Ratman]’s head.
Kueee!?
The [Ratman] was slow to react and got stabbed in the chest. 𝑓𝙧𝚎𝑒𝔀𝙚𝑏𝑛𝑜vel. c૦m
-42
He saw a familiar number. An icon at the right of the [Ratman]’s HP bar took his attention. He tapped it then information appeared before his eyes. It shows that the [Ratman] HP was 100 in numerical value and its defense was 20.
Even though he pierced the [Ratman] on the chest, it was still not enough to kill it. The [Ratman] tried to struggle, but it was useless. It couldn’t even reach him because the spear was longer.
Bang!
Yeman pulled back the spear and kicked the [Ratman] on the abdomen at the same time.
-2
“Eh?” He exclaimed in disbelief after seeing his bare strength damage.
His kick could only manage to take 2% of its life. Yeman figured out that no additional damage from the weapon if not using it to attack.
The soldier glanced at his back and saw a person stabbing a monster behind him.
‘Did he save me?’ With a bead of sweat on his forehead, he asked himself, then returned his gaze at the front.
After pulling out the spear, the [Ratman] came charging again. But, Yeman quickly stabbed it again.
-22
‘Not so deep, ‘ he thought.
And another monster HP loss, now it’s current HP at 34%.
The [Ratman] tried to struggle and whip his tail like a madman. But the struggle was in vain, its 2.5 metres tail was nothing against the 3 metres spear in Yeman’s hands.
He smirked at the simple-mindedness of the [Ratman]. Yeman decided a spear was a better choice for this type of monsters who only know how to slash their daggers in hands, and also use their tails which are shorter than a spear. The monster can’t even reach him.
‘What an easy way to kill this monster,’ he thought.
He pulled back the spear with a purpose of finishing it in a next stab. It let out a grieving yelp.
But without a second thought, he hastily stabbed it again.
Swoosh!
The sound of hitting the air reached his ears. Yeman was shocked, the [Ratman] had moved in a zigzag and dodged his attack. The [Ratman] dashed forward when Yeman missed his attack.
He felt a chill. The [Ratman] with a dagger in hand came dashing towards him. He calculated that he would be late to block the slash that came speedily towards his stomach.
He figured out that because the spear was too long, he would be slow to react. Out of reflex, he unconsciously stepped back.
.....
KeeeEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHHH!
But another [Ratman] appeared behind him.
KeeeEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHHH!
And another one appeared on his left side.
“Shit!” He cursed. Three monsters came stabbing him from three directions. Yeman closed his eyes in resignation as he knew he f.u.c.k.i.e.d up!
He regretted it deep inside. What a waste of life to die very early after he reincarnated.
The three monsters pointed their blade at different parts of his body. One at his stomach, the second at the back, and the third on his left waist.
He knew that a moment from now he would die. He decided to close his eyes and wait for the painful stab to come.
Even though the [Ratman] was only level one and had a simple attack pattern, he shouldn’t have let his guard down.
But, this was natural to someone like him who was not a real soldier and knew nothing about these monsters around him.
A moment later.
Zing zing zing!
Three sound of stabs reached his ears.
