Episode 11 – Accompanying Serin Ekatos (3)

Two days have passed since I left Oak Tree Village and headed to Belsarem.

I walked a lot of distance in two days, but I have never encountered a monster or a group of thieves.

In novels and games, don’t you usually encounter a thief or monster at least once in a situation like this?

Some people say that meeting robbers, bandits, thieves, and monsters while traveling is a fantasy romance.

However, since I had almost no combat power, it was better not to encounter thieves or monsters.

For this purpose, she hired Serine Ekatos, who is active as a mercenary, as her escort, but it is unclear whether she will show her overwhelming skills as she showed in the Erasto Chronicle.

In the first place, I never saw Serin fight in person, so I just assumed that she was a strong person based on her appearance and abilities in the game.

Because I had not yet seen her skills with my own eyes, I could not fully trust her.

Of course, even as someone who was not very knowledgeable about the black sword she was currently wearing at her waist, it looked very expensive and good-looking.

If I were to put it my way, even though I have never fought before, I feel like I could take on one or two people with that sword.

Well, you might be lucky enough to defeat a couple of people, but you never know what will happen next.

‘The only weapon I have ever handled was the K2 used in the military.’

To be honest, the weapon I needed most right now was a type of gun like the K2.

Hasn’t every healthy male in Korea been to the military or a training camp at least once?

So, the weapon I could handle best was an assault rifle like the K2.

When I was discharged from the military, I heard that an improved version called K2C1 was being distributed.

‘I wonder how much time has passed since I died in that world.’

It’s only been three days since I arrived in this world, but I can’t believe I’m thinking like this.

But there is definitely something strange. Why am I not so surprised that I came to this world?

‘Isn’t it normal to deny death? Or am I actually abnormal?’

My head hurts if I think deeply about it in any direction, so I decided not to think about that part any more.

No matter what, the most important thing is that the world I live in now is the world of Erasto Chronicle.

It is possible that Epitrina, the goddess who governs this world, lied to me, but at least she gave me abilities and I can actually use those abilities, so the possibility that she lied is infinitely reduced.

Actually, I don’t know. What if it’s a lie, and what if it’s true.

The fact that I am alive is important.

While I was lost in thought while walking down the street, I felt something passing over my head.

―Ujistring!

This is the sound of a tree breaking. What just passed over my head?

I turned my head and looked back, and I couldn’t believe my eyes.

‘Did a shell fall?’

Obviously what was behind me was a tree.

But now the tree had disappeared from exactly above my head.

Under the circumstances, it is presumed that something fast and heavy flew in and blew off the upper part of the tree trunk.

Once a problem has occurred, you need to stop thinking about it and understand the situation and what is happening.

I kept my head still and just turned my eyes to look at my surroundings.

When I looked closely at the surroundings, I saw something in the shape of a man made of rock, standing in the way.

[…] ….]

The person blocking the road was someone I knew very well.

“Why is the golem here?”

“Damn it! Pathos, step back! “I’ll deal with that guy!”

After Serin confirmed that it was a golem blocking the path, she stepped in front of me and drew her sword.

The sword she pulled out was something I had seen many times somewhere.

‘Where did you see it a lot?’

I racked Serin’s brain to find out what the sword in her hand was.

And I was finally able to find out what the sword in Serin’s hand was.

Before the limit was broken, it was the famous sword ‘Diamant’, the exclusive weapon of 5-star heroine Serin Ekatos.

‘I never thought I would actually see that.’

Her sword, Diamant, was a weapon whose abilities were amplified when Serin equipped it.

However, after she was promoted to 6 stars, she was used as a sacrifice for strengthening, and the reason was simple.

This was because Serine Ekatos, who was promoted to 6-star, was given additional settings and a new exclusive weapon.

The name of that sword was probably ‘Stormbringer’.

Diamant was also a famous sword, but Stormbringer was a truly divine sword according to the in-game description.

The game description stated that a weapon created by a craftsman and given a name through his activities is called a famous sword, and a sword used by a hero who achieved mythical achievements is called a new sword.

Honestly, I didn’t think I would remember all of this.

Perhaps Epitrina passed on her abilities and her knowledge of the Erasto Chronicles helped her remember them well.

Anyway, that’s not what’s important right now, I guess.

“Haaa!”

After putting her blade back, Serin held on tightly to her own sword, Diamant, and was attacking her golem.

I can clearly see the faint blue light gathering around her sword.

Perhaps that is the sword aura that a swordsman who has reached a certain level can implement.

For Serin Ekatos, Sword Aura exists as a passive skill, and its effect is ‘ignores a certain percentage of the enemy’s defense and inflicts damage.’

However, even though her sword is surrounded by a sword aura, the golem is basically made of hard rock or metal.

What this means is that because Serin’s basic defense is high, attacks made by Serin do not inflict proper damage.

‘However, even golems that seem sturdy have weaknesses.’

Including golems, all monsters that appear in Erasto Chronicle have weaknesses.

If you attack its weak points properly, it would not be difficult for Serin to defeat the golem.

“Serine! “The golem has a weakness!”

“What? Really?”

After exchanging attack and defense with the golem for a while, Serin seemed in disbelief at what I was saying.

Her navy blue hair was soaked with sweat and clinging to her face, showing that her physical strength was reaching its limit.

I think the reason she is pushing herself like this is to fulfill her contract with me.

So, as much as she fights for me, I also have to help her defeat her golem.

“Poke out the golem’s eyes! “There’s the golem’s core!”

From Noble mtl dot com

“What?”

The main body of a monster called a golem is very small, and it is called a ‘core’.

The golem communicates, learns, and judges the situation through its core, which can be considered its main body.

But what enables a golem to judge a situation and learn?

“Snow! Eye!”

That is the golem’s eye. The golem’s core is very hard when it is in the shape of a bead.

However, when a body is formed around the golem’s core, the core becomes very weak to maintain it.

Therefore, in order to catch a golem, you just need to attack the golem’s core.

It may seem easy to say, but in reality, it is very difficult.

If it were possible to attack and destroy the Gaena Sona Golem’s core, the Golem would not have been a difficult enemy to deal with.

No matter how weakened the golem’s core was, it could not be scratched by any significant attack.

So, in Erasto Chronicle, the golem was a newbie slayer for newbies who did not know the strategy, and a good source of funds for those who knew the strategy.

So the only way to catch the golem was to destroy its core.

It is impossible for an ordinary person, but it is possible for Serin, who is fighting hard in front of me.

Because Serin Ekatos is the savior of newbies and has the ability to unleash explosive damage against bosses.

“You mean the golem’s eyes are its weak point? Okay!”

Serin ignored my words and took a step back, as if she had to make up for it, and then took a familiar posture.

I knew what posture she was taking to cast it.

“There is nothing that my sword cannot cut, and my will is the sword!”

What she wants to use is the unique skill of the 5-star Serin, ‘Sword of Will’.

It was a technique that ignored the opponent’s defense and inflicted damage.

Thanks to this skill, she was able to unleash explosive damage on a single boss.

As soon as a flash of light shined from her sword as she took her stance, the spot where the golem’s eyes were was split exactly in half.

Her sword skills, which cut only the part where the golem’s eyes, which can be said to be its core, were located without any damage to the golem’s body, could truly be considered a work of art.

The golem’s body, whose core was destroyed, was shattered, and the split core of the golem fell on top of it.

And Serin’s sword, Diamant, which cut out the golem’s core, split in half.

“My, my sword?”

Serin looked embarrassed at the fact that her beloved sword was broken.

But as I looked at her broken sword, I realized that it was finally time.

Now was the perfect opportunity to build up Serin’s favor through my abilities.

“Hey… Serin…… ?”
