“I’m going to take you down as fast as I can and show those incompetent employees what I’ m made of! They deserve to be fired, and I’ll get in the way of them transferring somewhere else. They’ll never work in a decent place again…….”
This guy has become a small fish character at once. I was expecting him to say something more like a president or a big boss. I’m disappointed. I guess he was always giving off this kind of vibe and intimidating his employees. That’s why he had no popularity at all and was easily betrayed.
My sister also told me that some of the former employees were complaining that they wanted to go back. I could cut the call with the other person, but I’ll just leave it at that. I typed away on the keyboard, ignoring Chosokabe.
“Are you trying to perform a miracle? There’s nothing you can do about it now.”
Oh, that’s a bit of a villainous way of putting it.
“Well, let’s see. Then, I’ll go with [Summon Golem].”
I breathe life into the divine statue and activate it. At its feet was a silver basilisk – Gochupicchu. I manipulated it and made it turn its petrifying gaze to the god statue. In an instant, it changed from a wooden statue to a stone statue. This made it more resistant to fire, and increased its durability and attack power. I hadn’t used it until now, but now was the time to give it my all.
The statue of God leaped over the altar and headed straight for the battlefield. I could see the villagers cheering and praying as the statue cut through the wind and sprinted. To live up to their expectations, I raised my sword arm toward the sky.
I plunged headfirst into the oncoming monsters without fear and swung both swords. With each swing, the monster’s head and upper body flew around in the air. Before the spurting blood could fall to the ground, new corpses began to appear one after another.
“No, no, no! It’s much more powerful than the previous statues.”
Hearing Chosokabe’s impatient voice made me feel a little less exasperated. I want to get on a roll here and provoke him, but my points are still dwindling at a brisk pace. Unfortunately, I don’t have time for that.
“Don’t get carried away! Surround him!”
Following his instructions, the monsters all rushed towards the statue of God at once. The other side seemed to be in a great hurry, and his voice had a hint of impatience in it.
This is a good thing, because it would be a disadvantage if I were forced into an endurance battle. In addition, the crowd was conveniently dense. I kicked away the monsters as I approached the dragon that seemed to be the enemy boss, but the wall of flesh was too thick for me to move forward.
Even though the god statue’s movements are inhuman, the power of numbers is great. It was impossible to avoid the opponent’s attacks. If it were still made of wood, its arms or legs would have been broken. But now that it’s made of stone, it’s able to endure.
However, if I take too many hits, it will eventually shatter. While I was struggling, the once clear sky was covered with thick clouds. The area became dark and the rain began to fall with force.
“All right, keep going and crush them all at once!”
Chosokabe’s voice shouted happily. Objectively and subjectively, the other side seems to have the advantage, right? But…
“I have come, God of Fate!”
The villagers brought a long spear with a special shape on a large cart. The dark elves didn’t seem to know what it was, but most of the villagers understood what it was. The statue of the god leapt backwards and picked up the spear-like object.
The villagers lightly clapped their hands together in prayer and fled back into the village at once. The dark elves and newcomers to the village who did not understand the situation were persuaded by the villagers who had experienced the previous battle to retreat deeper into the village.
“What’s with the strange weapon? Is it a special item obtained with points? Even if it is, don’t think you can reverse the tide!”
The monsters seem to understand that it is a powerful weapon and surround the dragon as if to protect it. They are taking a misguided precaution against this spear. I’d like to say that we’re all set now, but it’s not enough. Now it’s time to show them the results of all our hard work!
“God of Nature, please!”
“Yes, I invoke my miraculous powers!”
“Miraculous power?”
A cheerful reply and a surprised voice came from the speaker. Immediately, water gushed out from underneath the monster’s feet at an unnatural rate, and they were immersed up to their ankles. By the way, I paid for this miracle!
“Just a puddle of water, huh? You scared the shit out of me.”
I’m not denying that it’s a puddle, but to say it’s just that is underestimating it.
“Too bad it’s not……!”
The statue jumped into the enemy territory again and leaped high, using the spear in his hand as a pole vaulting stick. Then, with the spear raised, it flew down at the dragon.
A single-eyed red devil jumped forward to protect the dragon from the spear. Without hesitation, I stabbed the spear into its large eye and kicked it toward the dragon without pulling it out. Instantly, a roar echoed and the screen filled with white flashes!
“My eyes, my eyes!”
“Ahhhh! This is the one!”
Chosokabe and the God of Nature player screamed. I looked away, but forgot to warn him. When I looked back at the screen where the flashes had disappeared, I saw that most of the monsters were either killed instantly or stunned by the power of the lightning strikes.
“I guess it’s true what they say about salt water having a high conductivity.”
What was spreading under the monster’s feet was not just water, but seawater. I used the knowledge I had gained when I was researching how to power up my favorite lightning attack.
There is a miracle of God of Nature called “generating shallow water”, and I thought it might work, so I tried it, but it was more than I expected…….Well, the expense was also more than I expected.
“You’ve come this far, and you can’t stand the lightning strike.”
I used《weather control》to create a thunderstorm, narrowed down the range, and made a suicide attack with a lightning rod in hand. Then lightning strikes, it’s like a ranged attack in a game.
If the statue had been a living creature, it would have been rendered immobile by the lightning strike, just like a monster. But it’s just stone.
The dragon was still alive, but it was writhing in agony, its eyes and ears damaged by the lightning. It was no match for such an opponent. The dragon’s scales were blown off by the lightning strike, and the blackened skin was exposed at the base of the neck. The dragon’s head fell to the ground with a dull thud.
I would like to declare victory here, but just in case, I’ll stick my sword into the vital points of the large fallen monsters. Standing majestically over the dragon’s corpse I stopped moving, poised to thrust my sword into the sky. The statue of God is illuminated by the sunlight that comes in as the dark clouds clear.
“Okay, it’s visually perfect.”
It’s also important to have a closing pose. Recently, I’ve started to pay more attention to how I end my stories. If it looks good, I get more points from the villagers, so it’s pretty important.
In this case, the reason it went so well was that I turned Habata over.
“My eyes are finally………What the hell is this……?”
A stunned voice comes from my phone. His eyesight had recovered and he could finally grasp the situation.
“I’m sorry, President Chosokabe. It’s over.”
“Damn it, damn it! You’re such a coward!”
What kind of talk is that? How dare you call me a coward after attacking me with that many people? Your heart and face must be made of steel.
“Don’t you think it’s a good thing to have a strategy?”
It’s not like I’m just going to sit and be told what to do.
“Would you be satisfied with……?”
His voice was calm, a complete change from before. As soon as I heard it, a chill ran down my spine.
“Habata is a scumbag, but he’s been giving us valuable information as well. I’ve already known the strength of your divine statue and your secret plan with the last thunderbolt.”
What? You knew about this fight in advance? I didn’t get that information from Habata!
“That coward must have thought he’d be lucky to get you and me to go at it.”
It’s possible. I mean, he’s not wrong.
“But what does it matter? You’re now annihilated……”
“That’s what I’m talking about. You let it run rampant in a remote location so that it wouldn’t harm the village. You were so focused on this that you didn’t even notice that another squad of……monsters had attacked the village. What do you think is going to happen now? If the village is destroyed, I win!”
Indeed, I was concentrating on manipulating the statue and took my eyes off the village. While operating the statue, the screen becomes the statue’s point of view and I can’t see the entire map. When I checked the village on my PC screen, I saw that it was still well. There was only a new corpse of a monster lying near the log fence.
“……we’re safe.”
“What? Why? I didn’t see it directly because my vision was damaged by the lightning, but I had already given the order! I’m sure the village didn’t have the strength to prevent it!”
What Chosokabe is saying is not wrong. After being attacked by dozens of powerful monsters, there was nothing the exhausted villagers could do. But in front of the slaughtered corpse of the new monster was another statue of God.
“Thank you, God of Nature.”
“Thank God I put on my sunglasses, as instructed and managed to hang on!”
I heard a happy voice coming from my computer speakers.
[Temptation of the Evil God ends. There will be no more enemy attacks today.]
The fanfare and red letters of the end of the event sounded.
