A Reincarnated Person With a Sub-Dimension - A Reincarnated Person With a Sub-Dimension chapter 25

Episode 25

It’s been three days since I left.

“stop.”

Wilmot, who was in the lead, raised his right fist and signaled the party to stop.

“Ian. Can’t you sense something?”

“I don’t feel anything special.”

Wilmot asked me to be vigilant during the journey, apparently recognizing my excellent senses.

After advancing about 20 meters, the corpses of orcs with their limbs and torso severed were scattered in the clearing.

Looking at the clean cross-section, it looked as if the bone had been cut at once.

Wilmot went to the clearing and inspected the orc’s corpse.

“It looks like it’s been dead for about two or three days. Grab the by-products and move by bypassing the existing route.”

Curious about why the orcs were dying, I asked Thalia a question.

“It’s probably something left behind by the silver plated mercenaries. Starting with the silver plated mercenaries, you have to catch at least a large species to be recognized as merit points. You can get points for free and reduce useless battles, so there’s nothing wrong with that.

By the way, the reason they bypass the route is because mercenaries don’t like it when someone follows them. In fact, the silver shield mercenary’s movement speed is much faster than ours, so we’re unlikely to encounter them, but we’re prepared just in case. Shall we go collect by-products then?”

Talia and I collected orc teeth.

before heading out.

Talia told the party that I was planning to quickly raise my rank.

Wilmot’s party also had almost filled their mission points, so they readily agreed to give up the demon’s teeth.

Nick asked why he didn’t tell me on the last trip and regretted not being able to buy a drink with the money he had left over.

I put the collected orc teeth into the bag.

Inside the sturdy bag made of fine leather was a strong rope for hunting trolls.

After collecting by-products, we started moving again.

Two days have passed since I detoured the route.

As I made my way through the woods, I sensed several signs approaching and called for Wilmot.

“Mr. Wilmot. Something is approaching from over there.”

“What about the numbers?”

“At least ten.”

Wilmot immediately looked around.

“It’s not a good place to hide. First of all, organize the ranks in the direction Ian said.”

After some time with formation.

From the other side of the forest, a group of about 20 orcs appeared one after another.

‘It’s not like they just eat and exercise.’

The orcs were taller than 2 meters tall and boasted powerful muscles like bodybuilders.

Kreuk! Kreuk! human!

Humans are delicious!

The group of orcs who found us couldn’t control their excitement and rushed at us with their noses wide open.

An average Orc can produce 2 mana.

Assuming the fighting skills are the same.

To beat a person with twice the strength, at least three or four people will have to stick together to predict victory.

In a word, it is almost impossible for a human to defeat an orc barefoot.

However, humans have hard and sharp equipment that orcs do not have.

Even an ordinary person could slay an Orc one-on-one if he had good equipment.

If you were an introductory warrior, you could easily stand up to two or three orcs by yourself.

While maintaining formation, we dealt with the charging orcs one by one.

I slammed my shield against the flying ax and cut it off.

Empty!

No matter where he got it, the orc was holding an ax that looked quite sturdy.

However, it was far from being able to pierce my thick shield.

The orc’s ax hit the shield and bounced into the sky.

The orc, whose grip was torn by the strong repulsive force, lost the ax and panicked.

Although the orc had a heavier body than a human, compared to me armed with steel equipment, it was much lighter.

From the Orc’s point of view, it would feel like swinging an ax against a solid iron wall.

I hit the orc’s head with a mace without missing an opening.

The orc’s forehead was shattered and red blood splattered in all directions.

The orc, whose forehead was completely sunken, died as it was.

‘I have to get up to proficiency quickly.’

From noble mtl dot com

It was a taste of swinging a mace, but it was quite embarrassing to see his whole body covered in blood every time he fought.

It was a job that he had no choice but to endure until he moved his hunting grounds to the open field.

Retreat did not exist for the ferocious orcs.

Even though nearly half of their comrades had already died, they roared even louder and attacked without a hint of fear.

But that was then.

“Keugh!”

A moan erupted from Wilmot’s party.

“Get behind Taric! There’s a guy using mana! Watch out everyone!”

cried Wilmot in a furious voice.

I turned my head slightly to see that Taric was stepping back, clutching his side.

The wound was so severe that blood flowed from his side.

Taric is a taciturn man, and I have no special acquaintance with him.

Maybe that’s his original personality, but he didn’t show any signs of pain even though he was seriously injured.

At Wilmot’s cry, we increased our strength and pressed the orcs.

The fight didn’t last long.

Most of the orcs are not wearing armor properly.

Fist fights can be resolved in a matter of minutes, but it was more strange that the battle with the ugly weapon was prolonged.

After a while, the orcs fell one after another.

Wilmot’s party was struggling against the two remaining orcs.

I quickly moved my body and pierced the back of the head of the orc Roy was facing.

There is only one thing left.

‘You don’t have to help me.’

Judging by the situation, it seemed that there was no need to intervene.

I stood behind the orc and watched the fight.

Maybe it was because he used mana, his movements were definitely different from the others.

Demonic servants have inferior mana talents compared to humans.

However, based on their vigorous fertility, they produce more geniuses than humans.

Due to the low intelligence and simple nature of the demon beasts, it is very difficult to teach someone the mana psychic method.

In other words, most of the demon servants who use mana are those with natural talent who realized mana on their own.

Even the orc in front of us had better mana talent than anyone else in our group.

When it became a 3 to 1 fight, the orcs could not resist and were put in a precarious situation as if they would die at any moment.

‘It will be over soon.’

Mana produces the same power regardless of race.

If the troll reaches the introductory level, it can use mana to increase its athletic ability by 2 mana.

An introductory level orc would have had about 4 mana, so the odds of winning against three armed introductory warriors were extremely slim.

If an orc had mastered martial arts to the limit, he might have a chance to win the battle.

During battle, life and death could be divided by a short attack distance equal to a fingertip or a minute difference in strength, so if the wide attack range and strong power were used well, the orc had a chance.

However, when he saw the reckless attack of the orc, it seemed unlikely that he would return alive.

gurgling.

Wilmot’s two-handed greatsword sliced through the orc’s throat.

The orc screamed in agony and collapsed.

“Because I’m out of luck, I’m meeting this guy here. Era.”

Nick spat on the orc’s body and spat.

Meanwhile, Wilmot approached Taric.

“Are you okay, Taric?”

“I drank the recovery potion and took a breath.”

Wilmot removed Taric’s armor and examined his injuries.

Taric suffered a major wound in his side and a broken bone.

“The wound is almost healed, but the bone is a problem. Roy, take one of the advanced recovery potions.”

When Taric drank the Greater Recovery Potion, the remaining wound healed in an instant.

Taric, whose physical strength was depleted due to the side effects of the recovery potion, soon passed out and fell asleep.

“Rest until Taric wakes up. In the meantime, take time for personal maintenance.”

At Wilmot’s instructions, I took my orc teeth and cleaned my armor.

A few hours later, when Taric woke up, we had a quick meal and set off again.

“Mr. Thalia! Pull more!”

Five days after entering the troll habitat.

We were in the midst of hunting against the trolls we had lured.

The troll screamed and whipped its arms and legs to free the ropes from its body.

However, since both arms and one leg were already tightly bound with thick ropes, there was no significant effect.

I wrapped the rope Talia and the others had pulled tight around a large tree.

thud!

“Now!”

Finally the troll fell with both legs tied.

“Nick. Peter. Attack!”

At Wilmot’s cry, Nick and Peter rushed at the troll with battle hammers and maces.

They slammed their weapons down on the troll’s head without mercy.

Kurouk! Human bastards!

The frozen troll roared in rage.

At that moment, the hook of Nick’s battle hammer pierced the troll’s palate deeply.

With brain damage, the troll stopped fighting and twitched.

After a while, the troll’s head became muddy and stopped moving.

“Good job everyone!”

The hunt ended with Wilmot congratulating the party.

A few days after the troll hunt.

Our party was returning to Erita in a pleasant atmosphere.

The troll caught this time was an adult male troll, and the expected price of the by-product was 6 gold coins.

Even after deducting taxes, more than 40 silver coins were returned.

I had a feeling of regret because of the memory of my first hunt, but everyone in the party was satisfied.

After a light lunch near the stream, we started moving again.

Before long, however, Wilmot stopped the group.

Wilmot seemed to stare ahead for a moment, then looked back and spoke softly.

“Found trolls ahead. All ready for battle.”

You can’t set traps with trolls in front of you.

Since it is not always possible to fight the best battle, the party immediately took a combat posture.

We formed formation and advanced slowly.

But as I got closer to the troll, I felt something strange.

‘It’s like I can’t even breathe. Aren’t you dead?’

As we approached, the troll lay dead on the ground, unmoving.

Wilmot picked up a large rock and threw it at the troll, trying to determine if the troll was alive or dead.

puck!

Despite being hit in the head by a stone, the troll did not budge.

After approaching the troll several meters, we were finally convinced that it was dead.

Some time had passed since he died, and the troll’s eyes had turned cloudy.

“Seeing no wounds, he must have died a natural death.”

Wilmot raised his greatsword high and plunged it into the troll’s forehead.

The thick sword cut through more than half of the troll’s head, but the troll didn’t shed a drop of blood.

“Ha, this is true. Maybe it’s because of you Ian, it seems like I’m always lucky.”

Nick said to me with a smile and a excited face.

“What have I done?”

Whatever the reason, so far our expedition has been quite lucky.

According to Thalia, there are often cases in which trolls are not found even after leaving the original destination and return.

This is because the expedition is not alone, and if someone goes on a long journey to an area where trolls have been hunted first, they will not be able to find the trolls after searching for a hundred days.

And even if he somehow managed to hunt one, it wasn’t easy to hunt two.

Since trolls occupy a fairly large area as their territory, you need to catch and search for at least ten days to hunt another troll.

But on the way back, they find a troll who died of natural causes?

All I can say is that this is really lucky.

That’s when everyone in the party was delighted with the unexpected windfall.

‘Who is it?’

I sensed a quick approach and spoke to Wilmot.

“Wait a minute. Someone is coming. It’s not a demon servant, it’s probably a person.”

Hearing the overlapping sound of metal clashing, it seemed that several people in armor were approaching.
