Chapter 11:

Satoru's decision

The Legend Of Black Knight


Three years ago they discovered what was that monster that he feared so much until now, telling Hilda everything that had happened, her explanation helped him to understand the level of his opponent.

According to her, orcs were green beings, tall and strong by nature, had no hair or hair on their bodies, for someone who didn't know the difference between monsters it was easy to confuse an orc with a hobgoblin who were similar but weaker, a foolish mistake that would cause the death of those uninformed.

The face was the key to telling the difference between them, Hobgoblins had sharp noses, and their teeth were sharp but fine. Orcs were the total opposite in that sense, their noses resembling those of humans and their teeth were sharp but thick and tough enough to chew on the bones of smaller animals like glass.

They didn't usually live in groups, however, some mostly lived alone, because for the orcs strength was respect, living alone for years and thus killing countless prey, was enough for no other orc to want to mess with him.

Unfortunately for Satoru and Victor on that fateful day, they came face to face with a very terrible monster, Satoru couldn’t win alone, that is clear if he was an ordinary human, but he wasn't even human anymore.

The two opponents faced each other, Satoru dropped his coat on the ground and pulled his greatsword, his sword had 180 centimeters of length and 30 centimeters in width.

It was an imposing weapon that Satoru could wield with one hand in case he thought it necessary. But the Orc seemed surprised, they could not be considered intelligent beings, but, the vast majority did not know is that they always kept a face that marked them in some way, either through the difficulty of the fight or prey that fled, Satoru was a specific case, which the orc remembered when he failed to kill a mere human.

It was a flaw to his pride, to have let a human out alive, even if he didn't understand how this fragile being had survived two blows with such force.

There he was now, wielding a sword in his direction, clearly calling him to a confrontation, even though he didn't understand what feelings were, the Orc seemed to laugh excitedly, for them facing an opponent who wouldn't die easily was often unique in life. from them.

Happier and happier at finding an opponent he thought worthy, the Orc banged the two sticks together and shouted excitedly as if declaring that he accepted the challenge.

Seeing the enemy scream, Satoru couldn't help but feel a little intimidated, it was the first time he had fought in a real 1-on-1 battle.

"Since you want this so badly, then come!" Raising his guard, Satoru spoke, hoping the other side would understand.

Furious, the Orc ran raising the club in his right hand, he was then in front of his target in a few steps, with all his strength he delivered a blow with all his strength towards the ground.

Making the ground also shake with such force injected in a single blow.

But Satoru was no longer there, noticing his opponent's obvious intentions, he moved to the side in advance before the blow hit him, then jumped up swinging the sword, thus leaving a long cut on his opponent's arm.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!!" Screaming in pain, this was the first time someone had managed to hurt his body, even though it wasn't deep, it still hurt.

Fixing his hand, Satoru will never face something so difficult, normally he would cut a person in half with that level of strength, but now only a mere cut that was wide, not deep to hit vital points, the opponent's muscles were rigid as iron, something the young man had never felt.

This fight wouldn't be as fast as he expected, but for some reason, he didn't feel afraid, but happy to be able to fight, after all, that was the dream of many teenagers, facing monsters bravely, something that Satoru hadn't experienced until At the moment, there is nothing heroic or exciting about their fights until that day.

Finally adapted to pain, the Orc saw his opponent distracted right behind him, with that he turned his body and the club of his left hand went with him, thus being a direct blow.

Satoru suddenly felt something hit him from the side, unable to dodge in time, but as much strength as he could, but felt his body being dragged, doing what he could, he suddenly stopped and the ground below his feet rose with the force he applied.

Seeing his blow was stopped, the Orc looked in disbelief even though he put in more strength, Satoru did the same with that the two reached an impasse of strength.

Frustrated, the giant drew back his hand and tried to strike with the club on his left. Satoru seeing this blow coming, would not have time to counter-attack using his current weapon, so he modified the form creating two katanas thus cutting the club before hitting.

Confused, the Orc raised his weapon and saw that it had been split in two, not understanding how a human would change weapons so quickly. Taking advantage of the advantage Satoru changes the weapon again, for a giant war ax running, he jumps aiming at his opponent's head, however, the Orc instinctively seeing that he would be killed if hit, used half of his old weapon to try to topSatoru who changed the ax's trajectory and landed the orc's blow so the two collided once more.

Seeing that heavy weapons only hindered the fight, Satoru decided to use another type of strategy, exchanging the ax for a pair of gauntlets with skulls where his fist should be, he had no reason to be skulls, he just liked them.

Without understanding what he felt now, the Orc for the first time in his life felt fear of death for very little the fight does not end in the previous movement.

With his enemy moving away, he took the entire destroyed piece of the stick and threw it away, he would also have to take it seriously so he held the last weapon he had left with both hands, of course, he didn't wait to be attacked, so how if it was a baseball player, he raised the club and then swung it as hard as he could towards the human.

Not bothering to run away, Satoru spread his feathers and bent his knees, bracing his feet on the ground, waiting for the enemy to arrive. When the two finally met, the next sound defined the

Satoru's advantage, as it was the sound of the club being broken when receiving a punch from Satoru's right hand while using the gauntlet, it was as if the weapon simply exploded.

Not stopping in such a simple movement, the human stamped his feet taking up momentum, then threw a direct punch to the belly of the Orc who didn't have time to react or scream, when he also received an uppercut to the chin, that punch coming from below made him his whole mouth felt like it was going to break.

Its body weighing more than 200 kilos had its feet taken off the ground, then the being fell back on the ground, its head shook and its mouth throbbed. Yet the Orc stood up even in pain, his eyes bloodshot, looking angrily at the human standing in front of him, so he decided to just start punching several times in the direction of Satoru who chose to receive all punches.

It was a surprising strength, for Satoru the punches of this monster should be the same as being hit by several buses at high speed, with the guard raised, the gauntlets still managed to hold the impact.

With those frantic attacks one after the other, the human was slowly being dragged back towards the edge of the mountain, which gave him a good idea.

All he needed was the opportunity, seeing that the enemy's strength and frequency were fading, Satoru then expanded every muscle in his body, it was as if his skin suddenly inflated and hardened.

Wasting no time, in the first gap the enemy opened, Satoru passed him and grabbed his leg, with all his strength, Satoru began to spin on his own axis while holding the Orc's leg, when he got enough strength, he let go of the big enemy towards the cliff.

Satoru knew very well that while it wasn't difficult to climb this mountain, it was certainly impossible to free fall, so he took as much strength as he could at the throw, so the orc wouldn't have a chance.

Approaching the edge, Satoru looked down, barely able to see, there was the Orc's body, he didn't know if his enemy had died so the young human took distance and jumped. As it landed on the floor, a huge curtain of ash rose, there were so many now, that it covered anyone's feet completely.

Approaching, Satoru didn't see any sign of the Orc still alive, so he sighed, that feeling of excitement was still in him, but now it was gone, so he turned to go.

However, before he knew it, a huge figure got up, and something hit him in the side, knocking him against the mountain, feeling his whole body tremble, the pain was horrible, like being hit with a sledgehammer, only much stronger.

Shocked by the sudden onslaught, Satoru saw the figure of his enemy who he thought had died, only his muscles looked like they were going to explode from being swollen, it was the worst thing that could happen in a fight against an orc.

According to Hilda, the orcs, in general, had their survival ability, it was almost like a suicide measure, but that still wouldn't result in death only in extreme exhaustion causing the one who uses it to fall unconscious right away.

Using this unique ability of theirs, strength and stamina doubled, yet another disadvantage was reduced brain capacity, making them attack like mad.

This was similar to a famous gaming skill, berserker status.

Seeing the Orc walking towards him the ashes were almost expelled upwards, with the force that that great being squeezed from his muscles. With his body already being healed, Satoru could no longer hold onto anything, it was all or nothing at this point, so he undid the gauntlets and armor of his body, reshaping it all over, covering most of his body, and using a simple look. more intimidating, he is the head part he decided to protect only the mouth.

Raising the strength of his own body, especially in his arms, Satoru made his muscles once again inflate and then harden.

Thus began the end of the dispute between the two. With the limited time of his state, the Orc roared and ran throwing a punch with all his strength. Satoru only dodged to the side making the blow hit the wall of the mountain that cracked entirely and broke, raising dust and ash everywhere.

But of course, it didn't end so quickly, with a second punch he went towards Satoru who didn't dodge but defended holding the opponent's punch.

With his eyes emitting a cold glow, it was Satoru Seigi's turn to show the result of 3 years of training. So he let go of the opponent's hand that tried to hit him with another punch, but that missed badly as Satoru dodged by sliding through the ashes, stopping right below the opponent, he supported his own body on a leg that served to drive the stretched leg that kicked the Orc's chin.

Amending then, second kick in the side of the face, turning his body the leg that before thrust now hit full. Surely the force should have been enough to hurt, but given the Orc's frenetic state it was impossible to know how effective it was.

Landing on the ground with his back to the enemy, the black-armored being flexed the muscles of his entire arm and hitting the enemy with his elbow, but without seeming to feel anything, the Orc landed a full punch.

But this time, Satoru didn't seem to get hurt, so a punch was towards him, but he already expected it and with his right-hand punch against the Orc's left hand.

When the two punches collided and generated a strong blast of air that swept all the ashes away, when he realized the Orc's hand had lightened, Satoru moved quickly to kick his foe's knee, who went down for support. on the right leg.

Seizing the chance, with a leap, Satoru stopped high as he spun into a mortal and his heel slammed into the top of the Orc's head, which screamed in pain.

"AAAAAAAHH!"

Seeing that the effect of the unique skill was wearing off, Satoru badly rolled on the ground and ran supporting his left leg on the monster's right knee while putting his hand and pulling the monster's head forward, then sinking his right knee into the face. his.

Feeling that something had been broken, Satoru backed up a little, dizzy without being able to move right anymore the Orc insisted on continuing to fight, noting that Satoru decided to honor his opponent's wish, he had also given himself fully in this fight, it was time to put an end to that.

Gathering the rest of his forces the Orc began to attack incessantly again, Satoru chose to follow suit, letting his enemy hit him, he also returned the punches.

A bang echoed for every punch that was thrown, if anyone from the outside watched they would tremble in fear at such savagery and raw power they both had. The true brute strength that so many crave was now demonstrated in excess, no normal being of any race would survive even a punch from either.

With no more strength left, the Orc suddenly lost all his strength, so he didn't even dodge his opponent's uppercut and he got totally bewildered, he finally fell back to the ground.

Mentally exhausted, Satoru didn't expect it to last that long, but the fire in his body going out seemed to have been enough for him to see, the feeling of a real fight.

His muscles weren't so tense before, straightening his posture he undid the armor and went back to his usual appearance putting the greatsword in its scabbard again.

Looking at the enemy, it was possible to see a line of blood running from his mouth, however, to be sure, a small tentacle came out from under the nail of his right hand and entered the Orc's ear, using his brain to make sure, death was confirmed. of your enemy.
