Became an Extra in a Youth JRPG Game

27 – Attacking the Fortress (1)

I woke up like a psychorobo, but it felt good to be alive.

Until now, there was no Psychorobo, so I became a young jjuguri. However, that was goodbye for now.

I was now an ‘Awakener’.

Humming a song from a famous animation about moving toys, I put Pinocchio on a wooden horse.

“You go, friend on me~ You go, friend on me!!!”

I can’t stand this song.

“Uhhhhh”

Taiga immediately grabbed his stomach and squeezed it.

“I sang unnecessarily well and got king…Keuhuhhehehehe!!”

Umi also laughed.

Laugh to your heart’s content. The friendship between me and Pinocchio won’t disappear because of that.

“Anyway, let’s stop talking nonsense, let’s go in.”

Sasiceth said.

“That’s right.”

I picked up the sword right away. I wanted to try how sharp the new sword would be.

Anyway, this is an important operation. It was natural for everyone to be nervous. We went inside the citadel with rather serious expressions.

————

Entering the fort, I checked the status window.

‘Pinocchio’

‘Level: 1’

‘Strength: 1’

From noble mtl dot com

‘mana: 2’

Simplified stats were expressed. I wasn’t expecting much, so it was surprisingly calm.

‘Skill is…’

Of course, there was no basic skill.

However, there was one passive skill.

“This is…!”

‘Overwhelming Presence: Enemies’ threat level is greatly increased. Enemies try to attack Pinocchio and you first.’

This was a pretty good passive in the game. Just hard to get Did you wear this from the start?

‘Finally… I’m staring at the perks of being a possessor. f*ck it.’

I muttered that.

In a word, it was a skill that definitively drew aggro. It was a very good passive in that the enemy attacked first without using a provocation skill. Because one person was hit by an attack, blood management became much easier. It didn’t work against bosses, but it worked well against rubbish mobs.

“Everyone trusts me.”

I immediately became elated and told everyone.

“Sorry…To be honest, I’m not looking forward to it.”

Taiga looked at me with sad eyes.

“Uhhhhh. Shota. Are you talking nonsense again?”

Umi seemed funny when I opened my mouth now.

Anyway, while talking, we walked down the hallway on the first floor of the fort.

Overall, the fortress had a medieval appearance. The first floor of the fort was the lobby.

“Crooleruck…!”

“Cruck!!”

Of course, monsters appeared. They were monsters dressed as knights. Tree trunks hung in clusters beyond the armor.

“Fight.”

Sasitth immediately drew his sword.

“Everyone save your spells!! The SP is limited!!! The dungeons are long!! Use spells only when you need them. I’ll do something for these guys!!”

I shouted that and immediately ran towards them. Shooting magic against rubbish mobs with ignorance in dungeons was the flag of annihilation in JRPGs. There was nothing left to do later.

“Wait… Shota. What are you doing…”

Umi looked at me with worried eyes as I rushed into the middle of the enemy lines.

“Pinocchio!! Come out!!”

I called Pinocchio right away.

“Zuin-nim! Please give me an order!! There’s nothing I can do.”

Pinocchio immediately followed me and flew through the sky.

“No!! There is anything I can do!!”

Terok-!

I immediately grabbed Pinocchio’s head.

“Zooin-nim?!”

Pinocchio shouted in a puzzled tone.

“Ughhhhh!!!”

I threw Pinocchio right away like throwing a dodge ball.

Then Pinocchio landed in the middle of enemy lines.

“Krurruck!!”

“Good!!!”

The effect of the passive skill ‘Overwhelming Presence’ was activated immediately. The monsters were relentlessly beating only Pinocchio, relying on their instincts.

Bubbubbubbuck-!! Buzz-!! Whoops-!!!

The monsters began to unilaterally beat Pinocchio who had fallen in the center.

“Oh, ah ah!

Pinocchio immediately crouched down and screamed. He was almost being mass-lynched by monsters.

“Be patient!! I’ll save you!!”

I immediately stormed in with a sword.

Anyway, Pinocchio had all elemental resistance. He can’t block or deflect certain types of attacks, but he gets hit less painfully. One toughness is awesome.

“Keee!!!!”

I swung my sword at the monster right in front of me.

Shhhhh-!!!! Pushak-!!!

A clean blow, sharpened with a kendo sword, cut through the monster’s body.

“Geeuheugh!!!”

With that, the monster’s body split apart.

“Ughhhhh!!!”

Pushak-!!!!

With another swing of the sword, I cut the guy behind me.

“Kiooooo!!!”

Woowook-!!

After sticking a knife into the stomach of the running guy and putting him to sleep, I threw myself at the last remaining monster.

“Look around!!!”

Pushaaak-!!

The black monster I swung neatly cut through the neck of the monster. With that, the monster’s neck fell to the ground.

With this, all the enemies have been cleared.

“Pinocchio! Are you okay?”

I immediately raised Pinocchio up.

“Yeah…”

Pinocchio seemed distraught because he was beaten so badly.

“Damn…. How many times did your nose swell up so much… You bastards.”

I touched Pinocchio’s long nose.

“My nose is originally a royal nose!!!!”

Pinocchio immediately took a bet.

Anyway, the junk mobs have been sorted out.

“Okay. Let’s go like this.”

I said to the party members.

“Hey… He looks like an idiot, but he’s strong. I forgot about it because of his usual eccentricities.”

Said Taiga scratching his head.

“It’s an excellent swordsmanship.”

Sasitth said with a slight smile.

“Well… He’s the ace of our kendo gym. But, what did he do? He only attacked Pinocchio.”

Umi asked.

“Ah… When monsters see this guy, they seem to intentionally attack first. It must have that characteristic.”

I said so.

“Uhhhhh. You look like the owner, so you’re a neighborhood drum?”

Taiga laughed and said.

“Uh huh!! It’s a neighborhood drum!!!”

I was about to run right into Taiga. After Taiga avoided my charge, he immediately punished me by linking his headlock. I felt the touch of Taiga’s soft breasts on my cheek. Uh oh oh oh… It felt like I was about to become addicted to it.

“Ah!! He’s laughing like a shota pervert!!”

Umi immediately went into tears and tried to drop me.

Anyway, I decided to proceed with this strategy. If things didn’t go well, his colleagues would fire their magic and provide fire support.

——–

Kurlureuk-! Keruk-!!!

After all, a dungeon is a dungeon, and the inside is teeming with monsters.

“Go!! Pinocchio!! Tighten your stomach and endure!!!”

I threw Pinocchio away.

“It doesn’t hurt at all!!!”

Pinocchio shouted confidently and threw himself among the monsters.

Joo Woo-wook!

At those words, Pinocchio’s nose stretched. Ah…He lied. Actually it hurts I felt a little guilty about that.

Anyway, Pinocchio landed in the center of the enemy camp almost like a mortar shell.

“Gerrr.”

“Kreurreureuk!!”

With that, the monsters relentlessly attacked only Pinocchio.

“I’ll go get it!!”

I immediately took up my sword and charged.

The battle was easy because the enemy’s attention was focused on Pinocchio. I just had to step back and hit the back with the sword.

Pushaaagh-!

After going around behind the enemy, I put a knife through his neck. Among them, cut down the one whose aggro was released. It was simple. Although I was level 5, there is a real combat experience that cannot be packed with levels. Due to his swordsmanship training, he was able to strike enemies more effectively because he knew how to fight.

Wow!

After swinging my sword to blow the monster’s earthenware pot away, I looked around. Hmm. All clear.

“Come on. Let’s all go.”

I waved at my colleagues. My colleagues followed me. Mana and spells were also completely saved. At this pace, it would be possible to attack all the way to the final floor. There was almost no loss of party members.

Responsible for team members’ physical strength!!! Wooden doll Pinocchio!!!! So reassuring!!!

———

Anyway.

We broke through the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th floors in turn.

Since there were so many enemies, the level went up steadily.

I reached level 6. It’s definitely more efficient than catching monsters you meet at random encounters outside.

And Sasit is level 10.

Taiga is level 8.

Umi reached level 7.

Yes. I became the weakest again.

“Shota. You were overtaken?”

Umi said with a grin.

“Le, there is a strength that cannot be explained by the level…!!”

I protested like that.

“Huh? I can’t hear what the level 6’s best friend is saying?”

Umi teased me with an exaggerated attitude of opening her ears.

“aaa!!!”

I was even more frustrated that I couldn’t say anything.

“Can I use Shota as a ttakari now?”

Umi said with a somewhat dark smile.

“Hey. Is he my pick?”

At that time, Taiga said with an uncomfortable expression. Umi and Taiga exchanged fiery glances.

It was Sasitth who dispelled such a futile argument.

“Hey. We’re on the 5th floor now. I can feel a strong presence.”

Sasiceth said.

“Uh. There’s a boss on the final floor. It’s a game rule.”

I said so.

“Honestly, everything is in good shape. The SP is fine too. Let’s go.”

Sasiceth said.

“Okay!! Let’s go!!”

I immediately screamed.

“Keee!!!!!”

I immediately smashed the huge gate blocking the 5th floor with my sword. No one can stop me!!!!

Inside the 5th floor, there was the boss as expected. It was a humanoid monster wearing a green uniform.

“Guo oh ong… Guo clothes…”

The monster caught me right away.

And in a cage in the corner of the wall, there were people trapped there. Strictly speaking, it was the soul of the people. It only took away the soul. It was the principle that a person who lost his soul would become a disabled person.

PABABABABABAAT-!!!

After a brief exchange of glances, the monster rushed towards me. The fight started like that.
