25.6% Reincarnation of a Failed Author: I Hate Clichés / Chapter 31: First Floor, III

บท 31: First Floor, III

Helis Roadgray POV:

A Mob of monsters suddenly resurfaced on the sand after reading the text on the hologram plank.

As a person who lived through Earth and a fantasy world, I wasn't typically phased by the unusual appearance of different beings, but that was different for the people of my former planet.

A faint squeal was heard from Haruka, she didn't seem much of an outside person, and uh, she was hiding behind Sean... did those two become a thing already?

The monsters in question, I'll just call them bat-spiders, as the name explains, it seems that they have the body of a spider and the head of a bat.

They screeched while moving their creepy body which appeared to be full of fur and had eight appendages. Their height seems to reach up to our waist.

"Kragh–!" The first bat-spider to approach me screeched, its maw opened unnaturally much, distorting its face.

"Hah..." I let out a sigh. Be calm, rational, and breathe.

My hand instinctually went down to my katana which was with me when I got sucked into this place, I grabbed the hilt which fit perfectly for my hand.

Damn, I hadn't given it much thought when I first got it but It seems this sword needs both hands to hold it and unleash its full potential. Right now though, it doesn't matter. I thought.

Smoothly, the sword slipped out of its sheath, with both of my hands, now, holding its dark and purple hilt, I pointed forward toward my target, the bat-spider.

I started circulating the mana inside my body, the multicolored motes moved up to my brain and became colorless. I then began to envision the now grayish particles receiving a color I hadn't tried before, amethyst.

The amethyst mana surrounded the whole surface of my body and came to be a new skin, in other words, my mana cloak or aura.

The katana, the tip of the blade, was now being aimed towards the forehead of the bat-spider, with my augmented body, I moved to the highest speed my body could accumulate in an instant and severed its head cleanly.

***

Everyone panicked after seeing the monsters, except Sean, Luke, and Helis that is. Around one minute after the horde of monsters started to resurface in the desert, the unexpected happened.

After everyone was almost ready for the incoming attack, the first to make his move was Helis himself, the supposed "Leader". The atmosphere shifted and Sean noticed the new aura surrounding him, so intense and fierce, like a flame that would disintegrate you the moment you were to touch it.

In the duration of a blink, the purple-clad mage was seen after the monster, as if he teleported.

The next instant, he raised his right arm unhurriedly in which he was holding his katana, and then the movement from the monster stopped.

Cleanly, unusually slow, the head of the monster fell with a weird noise like a wet towel hitting a surface.

Next, blood gushed out of the center where the head of the bat-spider used to be three seconds ago. No gasps were heard, and no movements were seen.

Silence. Just an eerie silence overtook the whole of the expanse they reached.

The body of the spider finally became limp, and soon all the other bat-spiders went berserk.

The first one to take action after watching Helis was Luke. He, with a rose-colored blade he had acquired from the corpses of the slaughter, tried to also help and amount to the group. Though, without mana and the boost of abilities that offered it, Luke seemed to be like an amateur with just a slight amount of experience.

So did Sean get into action as well, he had an advantage here, like Helis, he also could use magic, and the way he built his mana cloak and used magic was quite a unique one.

He visualizes the atmosphere mana getting sucked into his body, the translucent mana claws around his skin and takes a tinge of light blue, like a charring blue fire. In other words, Blue Whirl. The first Transcendental Spell he ever got to use.

As Luke sliced off the limbs of a bat-spider, he voiced his thoughts, "Ew, this is disgusting..." Soon after, everyone got into action.

These monsters weren't particularly strong and tough to beat. The main dangers that ooze from them are their claws and fangs when they open their mouths.

***

It took around six minutes of constant battle, everyone had been included, and the teamwork of everyone got better and better every moment they managed to survive.

Helis blocked the claw of a bat-spider and without looking he gave his orders, "Sean, you stay next to me in front. Luke, Haruka, and Mai, I'll trust you with the center. Ren and Soo-bin, you will stay in the rear. Hmph–!" He let out his breath when he finished off his orders and murdered another one of these senseless monsters.

The team formation was made and is now put into action.

From when the monsters appeared, up to now, Helis has already killed off fifty-three of them. Sean didn't do half-bad either, he had cut off thirty-eight already. The one who seemed to have done worse off than everyone here was Haruka Maki.

She didn't have enough confidence in herself and so Mai had to also cover for her, being dragged down.

That was ticking her off, she wanted to do more. To be considered an equal to him. To be able to stand next to him.

She knew... Mai knew, that it had only been two days in the dungeon. She knew what she was doing was irrational, she knew she shouldn't develop feelings, and yet, she couldn't help but look at him with awe in her eyes.

His hair, like the night sky. His eyes, sharp as a knife. His movements, fast as a bird soaring through the air. His attention, looking out for everyone while being in a pinch himself. Everything about him put Mai Sakaguchi in a trance.

***

Well, anyone who witnessed this sight would've been put in a trance, the reason for it being the two boys in front of everyone else.

"Hmph-" Their exhales were heard, "Switch-". They kept switching positions, Helis was in the front, Sean swung his dagger towards Helis's back, and then "Switch," was heard again. Helis shifted one-hundred-eighty-degrees, just barely evading the blue-blade daggers.

The same happened to Sean, getting out of the way at the last moment, covering for each other, within seconds, dozens of them were being killed off one by one, two by two.

Their trust and bond were truly one to be envious of.

"The head," Sean spoke and Helis tilted it to the left, avoiding the blade again.

"Left heel," Helis voiced, with that call, Sean smashed another bat-spider's head with that left foot, steering clear of the blade again.

Their coordination was astounding to the point it left everyone shocked.

Astounding to the point the mother of the bat-spiders themselves decided to show up and intercept them by the fear of her bloodline disappearing into nothing.

OH MY DAYS, I tried using the Third Point of View this time and damn, I'm not very used to it, but having to write all that action and battle really managed to tire my brains out, and for that I hope you support me and this little story of mine, but most importantly, Enjoy!

บท 32: First Floor, IV

It has been another four minutes since the fight began for Helis, and the crew currently has over fourteen minutes of doing nothing but slaying and cutting up monsters.

Their stamina is being used up, and they're also getting thirsty and hungry.

They let out a breath of relief as the number of monsters started to dim visibly.

The ground was full of blue blood that gushed out from the monsters. Corpses of bat-spiders were all over the tract.

The engulfing stench was also no-less easy to endure.

Cuts were also visible on the bodies of the whole party.

Just like every other bat-spider ruffled and appeared from under the sand, a being much more powerful than the other pests had appeared.

Finally, this moment arrived.

Under the two scorching suns, Helis and Sean were now face-to-face with the mother of the bat-spiders.

She looked even more dreadful and nasty. Her height reached well over 3 meters, her body was like that of a tarantula, covered with fur, and she had a pair of bat wings attached to her back.

The bat-spider's face had six eyes and two mouths agape enough for them to fit in, the half-arachnid and half-microchiroptera monster, was smarter than its mindless children.

***

Clearly, the mother of the bat-spiders was now declaring war on me and Sean.

"Everyone, run south of here!" I yelled out, they started to move immediately only to be blocked by a tremendous web amount shot by the mother's rear.

"You won't let them run that easily, will ya?" I scoffed, my teeth showing.

"Sean, let's do this," I said resolutely.

He smirked and said, "Heh, you already know!" with a firm tone.

After a little bit of scanning the mother's movements and behaviors, I thought of something I tried to practice with Sean.

"Wanna try that thing I was talking to you about?" I asked him while nodding my head.

"Eh? Do you want to try that here, against the boss? What about the people?" he started bombarding me with questions and I interrupted him.

"Chill, take it easy. After all, the mother's willing to be lenient enough to give us the first hit." I glared at her, and a huff was heard from her snout…

He sighed, "Hah, I don't know if this will work, but I guess I've got to use both daggers," Sean's shoulders slumped, "Let's try to finish it with one hit. I'm lazy, I don't want to drag this on longer." He barely got a little of his vitality back again.

The plan to finish the mother with one hit was this.

He jumps upwards and lands on my palm with his heel which I'll send him flying with wind magic at an immense speed. When he reaches the mother he will try to sever her head or her torso with his golden daggers, the moment the blade touches her skin, he would try to use wind magic to quicken his slashes or a fire spell… which can now be replaced by the Blue Whirl he has awakened.

***

"Here I come!" He said loudly and jumped in the air.

I went under his silhouette, pulled my right arm upward, and aimed it under his attached heels.

As I was holding my right shoulder with my left hand, He landed on my right palm. I had to support my arm considering I had to hold over sixty-five kilos with it and move it around too.

Instantly after his heels landed on my palm, I redirected his whole body towards the mother, I moved up the green particles of mana up to my brain and now down to the hand supporting Sean's body.

In a glint, a massive compressed amount of wind was gathered under his feet, I pushed my hand forward, outstretching my arm, and finally–

I said the move's name in my mind.

Canon Blade.

The whipping of air was heard and instantly the cutting sound reached the mother. The clinking of the blade was audible as Sean severed her torso in two while still flying, and soon after the scent of burned meat could be smelled.

In other words, we had been successful.

We managed to beat the boss of a floor with one hit.

The bisected body was now being grilled by blue flames. By Sean's Blue Whirl.

"We… we did it!?" Ren's celebration of victory was heard.

"Y-Yeah!"

"I can't believe it!?"

I just slumped on the ground, strength gone from my legs, I started devouring whatever water we had, chugging it down my parched throat.

Mai Sakaguchi approached and sat next to me, "You really are amazing. You and Sean looked like you were in a movie earlier, and what's with that pushing power? How did you throw him that fast? Why did the mother's body catch on fire? How could you move so fast? Did you train before… blah blah blah…" She bombarded me with questions, but after all that mana usage I couldn't bare listening to her questioning, so most of it didn't enter my brain.

"The mother's body caught on fire as a defensive mechanism…" What a blatant lie I said with a straight face. "As for pushing Sean, I just have too much muscle power, and um, yeah, I've been at the doctor for it. They said I miss the limiters of the strength I can send to my arms and legs, though I shouldn't overuse them because I can destroy my muscles fully." What am I even saying!?

"Where's Sean?" I heard Luke.

I raised my brows, "He should be back by now–" I started to reply but the person in question reached and interrupted my sentence.

"What the fuck!? Ahaha, the amount of adrenaline I had, man. It was so exciting, and that speed, oh my god. It felt like I legit was flying or something like that, I literally covered over fifty meters of distance. Thank god there's only sand here, otherwise, if it was concrete or something, my body would be splattered all over…"

Sean kept going on and on, I guess that was a great ride for him considering he spoke that much without trailing off or feeling awkward.

I couldn't help but smile.

"Woohoo! Nice then, good job at the monster extermination too." I raised my hand and we did a fist bump as I approached him.

I blinked my eyes and felt a sudden quietness from which, in the next moment I looked behind, only Sean and I were to be found in this desert.

Yahoo, idk why but I felt so hyped writing that special, combined move between Helis and Sean.

As I always say, any type of support is appreciated, but most importantly: Enjoy!
