Chapter 24: Holding Back is Hard with Weapons

A serpent lunged forward.

「Gagau, ga gyu gau!」 (A sparkle! I found a sparkle!)

I guess that sea serpent really loves shiny things. What shiny things to serpents might be what silvervine1 is to cats.

I brought the whip down towards the approaching serpent. This is the first slash. I wonder if it will hit.

Squelch!!

[Log: Golem dealt 150 damage to Sea Serpent.]

Oh, it hit. It even dealt damage. Although I can’t do AOE2 attacks, ranged attacks would now be doable. Though, I wonder if I can still hit it again.

It seems that the sea serpent was frightened. General Bowman is shouting something behind. I hope you all would attack altogether so that it will be a little more challenging. And then, become my whip’s guinea pigs!

Ah, the sea serpent released a breath. Since behind me is the main road, this way, no one would get hurt. I’m glad there are no pedestrians.

Ah!?

My whip was swept away. This guy’s breath is even more troublesome than himself. Stop it, would you. Although there is no damage, my whip is big so it is easily swept away.

Grrrrrr! I will not lose!

O-oh! It finally stopped. Since its breath is troublesome, let’s sink that serpent down faster. Hya!

Squelch!!

[Log: Golem dealt 150 damage to Sea Serpent.]

[Log: Sea Serpent died.]

Fuu, with this, I can now fight without worries.

Oh? It seems that the fishmen were scared. Fufufu. No, it’s just like this before. It was like this that I somehow acquired that weird title.

With a calm gait, I head towards the central square where the fishmen are gathered. The fishmen were surrounding me, albeit within a distance. Yep, they’re taking a safe distance where my whip can’t reach them.

The fishmen suddenly attacked in unison. Those at the front throw harpoons while those at the back fired magic. Tok tok tok tok tok, one by one I parried the harpoons. Though I was directly hit by their magic but with my metal body, there is no effect whatsoever. With this, I am not afraid of taking massive damages.

Next is my turn. I think I will kill them if I did it carelessly so I’ll hold back as much as possible. I neared the fishmen and slashed the whip slackly.

Swish. Bang, bang, bang, bang.

[Log: Golem dealt 180 overall damage to the Fishmen.]

[Log: Fishmen died.]

[Log: Golem leveled up to Lv. 11.]

This… Even though I slashed slackly, why did it dealt so much damage? Seriously? I have killed over 20 fishmen now. But this is a battle that decides life and death. I had no choice.

On the other hand, I just proved the effectiveness of my whip’s swings. Until now, I was only doing punch and kicks but with this, I can attack them altogether!

Well, when I was stuck to punch and kicks, my enemies then can’t also retaliate.  Though this time, I properly held back. When using a whip, it is a bit difficult to control the minute force.

It turned a little bit to the right, hitting a group there.

Swish. Bang, bang, bang, bang.

[Log: Golem dealt 120 overall damage to the Fishmen.]

[Log: Fishmen died.]

The damage was reduced. I was able to hold back. Well done. It’s a progress!

Yet, they still died. Guess I’d practice better. I’ll swing it more.

Swish. Bang, squelch, squelch, squelch.

[Log: Golem dealt 95 overall damage to the Fishmen.]

[Log: Fishmen died.]

Is it all pointless? Even though it was tremendously weakened… I wonder how much damage will I deal so that it won’t kill them. Holding back is hard.

There are still many fishmen. Even with the situation, General Bowman is still sending instructions to attack me. Even though the soldiers were clearly afraid, they still braved it out by heading towards me.

Alright. Since you’ve already resolved yourselves, let me be your opponent for today. But, don’t die easily okay?
