Chapter 108: The Point-Blank Fireball

The orc leader’s third axe came down like a falling concrete pillar and carried enough kinetic energy to turn a small car into flat scrap metal.

At least that was what he imagined when Eren saw it from close view!

Eren didn’t have his scimitars anymore. His bare hands were completely empty, but his brain wasn’t panicking.

Thanks to his Combat Mastery, he didn’t see a giant green brute trying to split his skull in half. Instead, his eyes processed the incoming giant axe as a simple motion vector, almost exactly like the glowing red trajectory warning him of the incoming danger.

His body moved without a single conscious thought, shifting his weight effortlessly and slipping smoothly right under the thick wooden handle of the descending weapon.

The thing in front of me isn’t a warrior, it’s just a massive wall of green muscle and bad breath.

Eren thought a new plan on that second while keeping his eyes locked on the target as he slid past the immediate danger zone.

I can’t pierce its thick armor with a sword and I don’t even have a f*cking sword anyway. So the only possibility is using that finally..

He needed a perfectly clean opening. Eren pushed a surge of mana into his eyes and activated Lovely Eyes, aiming straight for the orc leader’s tiny, rage-filled black pupils.

If this didn’t work he would run away for a while and look for another kind of opening because the two-second charm wasn’t %100 sure-hit. But fortunately his active skill worked this time!

The charm hit the giant creature right in the middle of its savage downward swing. The orc leader blinked, its massive body stiffening as a sudden wave of unnatural affection scrambled its tiny brain.

The terrifying momentum of the heavy axe completely broke and left the creature’s thick chest wide open for exactly half a second.

Eren closed the distance instantly. He didn’t try to punch or kick the iron-clad monster. He felt like even with his strong body, this orc wouldn’t die with his amateurish punch. He jammed his right hand directly into the narrow, dark gap where the orc’s heavy chest plate met its thick neck protector. It was the most vulnerable spot on this ugly creature!

He was trusting his Ember Necklace in this important time.

“Explode,” Eren whispered and commanded for the magic to work in his mind at the same time against the cold metal armor of the Orc.

He activated Minor Fireball and the skill wiped five hundred mana from his mana pool in a single heartbeat.

The fireball didn’t fly through the air and detonated directly inside the enclosed space of the heavy armor. The muffled, booming sound was absolutely disgusting, like an explotion happened violently inside a sealed tin can filled with meat and blood!

It was disgusting…

Thick black smoke and violent orange flames shot out of the narrow eye slits of the Elite Leader Orc’s helmet, accompanied by a wet tearing noise that made Eren’s stomach tremble.

It just swayed for a second, dropped heavily to its knees and collapsed face-first into the dirt while his upper body didn’t exist anymore.

Eren had blood, intestines and inner organ pieces all around his body.

[You took the 100% energy of Level 52 Orc Vanguard Chief]

[Congratulations! You have reached Level 44]

-All stats are +1

-You acquired 1 Stat Point to use

Eren let out a harsh, ragged breath as the notifications rolled in.

He didn’t magically feel totally refreshed or experience some mythical warm glow washing away his pain. He would like that but Evon was a bitch..

He still felt the deep ache in his shoulders but the sudden influx of raw stats forcefully injected fresh power into his exhausted muscles like something was forcefully changing his body. He was undeniably stronger than he was ten seconds ago even if it was a minuscule change.

The entire camp froze completely.

The surrounding orcs stared at the burning corpse of their invincible leader with wide, uncomprehending eyes. Watching their Vanguard Chief drop dead in less than three seconds broke their aggressive rhythm completely.

Eren didn’t waste the shock. He stepped over the smoking body and ignored his broken scimitars or other bloody pieces around and instead, he ripped the leader’s secondary weapon from its heavy leather belt.

It was a massive, weirdly designed metal dagger that felt heavier than a cast-iron skillet, looking a lot like those overpriced, impractical tactical knives he used to see on online shopping sites back on Earth.

He gripped the heavy handle and looked up at the thick branches of the nearest tree where Griks the kobold and the camera drone were still hiding.

I should climb up, throw Griks over my shoulder, grab the drone and run like hell.

It was the logical, safe Earth-guy plan. But as his fingers tightened around the rough metal grip of the orc dagger, his brain simply deleted the option to retreat.

The Nullified state of his emotions left a massive vacuum in his mind, and sheer, unadulterated bloodlust flooded in to fill it. Every passing second amplified his ferocity, replacing his usual cautious Earth mentality with a dark, heavy desire to kill.

If he didn’t wear strong and chabby shorts under his body, his erection would be shown to the whole Orc camp. It was weird but he couldn’t lie about his overly excited body or his new huge half elf erection.

He was glad his new pants that he got from Earth hide it well.

Strangely, the adrenaline and the violence were doing something crazy to his other hormones. His suppressed masculinity roared to life, and his libido spiked his killing intent.

His mind briefly flashed to Emily, picturing her sweaty, flushed face and her smooth white legs wrapped tightly around him after a long night in their bedroom.

God, I love her. If Emily was here to see this, she would definitely drag me into the nearest tent and jump me right on top of these corpses.

He pushed the horny thoughts aside while the killing intent continued to pulse and grow while his manhood fueled the fire burning in his chest.

He didn’t want to run anymore. He wanted to wipe this entire camp off the Evon universe!

“Come on then!” Eren shouted with charming voice passive skill and charged at the nearest frozen orc.
