Beat the Boss Mob chapter 11

11 - Hydra Hunting

11 – Hydra Hunt

The battle between the cadets and the Hydra is described as follows.

Hydra and Encounter, the cadets take the first attack, and after exactly 1 minute, all are incapacitated.

Are you kidding me? I’m a candidate for a hero, but does a 1-minute cut make sense?

‘f*ck. I’d rather be joking.’

It is impossible for the candidates to handle Hydra perfectly.

However, it’s not difficult to do quite a lot of damage.

They are not bad spirited people, but they are excellent at one skill.

I thought I’d do well since it’s not enough to deal with the beast.

I thought that the time would come naturally for me to step out after a while!

‘I didn’t know that everyone would retire as soon as they started.’

Hydra was stronger than the others. It’s different from the smell of the poison right now.

Still, I thought I would last 10 minutes, but 10 minutes ended in just one minute.

I realized once again. The only hope is Enlil!

Kwaang!―

Its gigantic tail swung once, devastating the area.

If you hit it right there, the power of the main body can be revealed without even realizing it.

Then the hydra will jump right away and Enlil will know who he is.

Rion isn’t worried about ‘If you get hit, you die!’ Like the others.

I was worried about ‘If I get hit, I might get caught!’.

Kyaaa!!

“Instructor! Don’t worry about the head! That’s-“

I know. Nine heads, but only one thinking head.

Since the nine heads don’t play separately, the attack with the head is slower than expected.

If you pay attention to that, you’ll get hit by the tail and die.

As Leon dodges the Hydra’s attack, Enlil steps aside.

“Even if you cut off the heads, they will all regenerate. Except for one guy who is the focus. To find it, cut off all the other necks, and cut the cross section….”

“You can apply heat. You can burn it whole if possible.”

As Enlil looked at him, Leon immediately added the following words.

“I saw it in a book. As soon as the instructor came, they said that it was essential to study witches.”

Actually, as the owner of the tower, I know everything about the Witchbeast.

“In the current situation, it would be absurd to light a fire….”

“We need to raise more mana. Like the hottest flame in the world!”

Quarre!―

A translucent red flame emerges from Enlil’s sword.

The stage where mana is raised to the maximum and finally enters the aura.

You have to do that to be able to fight demons in the tower.

“….”

I have to summon mana to summon that aura.

I can do it, but I’m worried that the main body’s power will intervene without notice.

But what can I do? If we back off here, the picture will look very strange.

‘Please. Please don’t use only your body’s strength.’

I pray a few times and try to slowly generate mana.

Although the main body is the owner of the tower, another shell created thanks to restrictions.

Inside it, the mana accumulated one by one by the method of practice stretches.

After a while, a huge flame rose from the sword in Leon’s hand.

It’s much darker and more brilliant than Enlil’s, not red, but blue!

“Ah… !”

Enlil sighed involuntarily even in a battle situation.

At that wind, Leone said, “What is it? Did something else go wrong?’ I even thought about it.

Fortunately, the Hydra did not run away and Enlil did not rush to aim his sword.

It was clear that the power of the main body, which I had been so worried about, did not intervene.

Relieved by that fact, Leon smiled briefly at Enlil.

“Come on. Then, let’s see some skills. Warrior.”

*

Wields a sword. One of the heads of the attacking hydra is cut off.

I immediately tried to use mana to stop her regeneration, but the other head turned it back to no avail.

At the moment you think that you have to get rid of that part quickly before it can regenerate.

The blue mana that flew like lightning quickly wiped the cross section.

“The next one.”

A man who does his part without saying anything.

Attack when an attack is needed, follow-up when a follow-up is needed.

Sometimes he acts as bait and even sets the timing for an attack.

It was a battle that would have taken over an hour had I been alone.

But now, less than 10 minutes later, he was able to win.

His head is now three. One of those three is real, so it won’t be long.

“….”

Except for the moment he was a cadet, something he had never felt before.

Belief, trust, and security that someone is looking after me.

Suddenly, I have this thought. What if I climbed the tower with this person?

Didn’t he defeat the arrogant and terrifyingly strong owner of the tower?

I’ve never had a thought like this before.

Why do you suddenly feel that way at this moment?

Kyaaa!—

At that time, the hydra’s movements became a little strange.

When put on the defensive, he struggles and swings his tail once.

Because of that, both Rion and Enlil distanced themselves from him—

Guuu!—

“Ah! Instructor! Be careful! It’s a breath!”

Poisonous air poured from the snouts of the remaining heads all at once.

No matter how much mana you detoxify, if you get hit properly, you’ll get a fatal wound.

Enlil hurriedly turned around and instinctively sensed something strange.

The direction is strange. He obviously had a poison breath, but he is neither himself nor Rion.

The hydra is aiming for none other than….

‘Cadets!’

Alas, Enlil blocked the students with his mana raised to the fullest.

In front of him, a huge poison cloud with a mixture of purple and green light rushed in.

‘The cadets’ mana is weaker than poison! If you get hit, you’ll be annihilated!’

Biting her lip, Enlil divided my mana into two, one for detoxification.

The other decided to build a barrier around the cadets and hold on.

Soon after, her poison cloud began to overtake her and her students—

“Coke!”

As soon as he faced the poison, dark red blood flowed from Enlil’s mouth.

It seems that the poison it spewed out was several times worse than I thought.

However, even if he raised his mana to the maximum, he even divided it into reverse.

From noble mtl dot com

Of course, Mana couldn’t overcome it, and some of the poison had to enter the body.

He hurriedly turned his mana to expel the poison that entered her body, but it was not possible.

An unexpected poison level. Enlil realized his mistake, but it was too late.

He can’t collect mana, and even if he could, he has no intention of doing so.

If I did that, it would be like killing ten people with my own hands.

“Stop… !”

It was at this moment that Enlil was about to burn his miasma with all his might.

Quaaa!―

The pouring miasma reconciles with blue flames and burns brilliantly.

A flame so beautiful that it could instantly steal even Enlil’s gaze.

In the meantime, Leon appears and immediately grabs Enlil by the shoulder.

“What a mess!?”

For a moment, a hot and spicy sensation flows through the whole body.

Rion’s mana passed through and circulated through my body, burning away all the poison.

Enlil tried to admire the mana that was so fast and so brilliant.

“Are you crazy?”

A cool voice flowed from Leon’s lips.

“You just almost died. Know?”

“Ah… Ha, but the cadets….”

“It’s not that important… ! … Woo woo-“

Leone let out a sigh and turned her head as if it was okay.

At that reaction, Enlil involuntarily flinched, and his body shrank.

“I ordered detoxification, but if I move carelessly, there will be internal injuries. From here on out, I’ll take care of it, so stay calm. You could get permanent mana damage if you move around.”

After Lyon finished her words, she swung her sword once.

The huge blue mana burns up again and removes all miasma.

With that gap revealed in that moment, Leon advances like a flash toward Hydra.

“….”

Once again, someone saved my life.

As the owner of the Black Throne in the Tower did, to the stronger one.

With a clear realization of her own helplessness.

‘By the way… why….’

Why don’t I feel humiliated or ashamed like back then?

Why do emotions of anticipation and joy linger now?

*

The Hydra Subjugation ended in a ‘successful’.

It is amazing that there are no casualties while catching such a monster.

Even skilled hunters often lose their lives against beasts like the hydra.

So the word success was right, but the atmosphere of the party was not good.

“….”

“….”

First of all, the cadets didn’t even play a role.

I was feeling ashamed that I passed out after leaving it to others.

Especially since he harbors self-blame and resentment towards himself as a candidate for the hero.

“….”

Originally, Enlil would have freed the cadets who were like that.

You are still candidates for the hero, there is a lot to learn and a lot to go through.

I can’t let this happen. Rather, I should eat my heart to become stronger, while saying.

But now even Enlil was focused on returning without saying anything.

Unexpectedly, the reason for such behavior was because of Leon.

‘Instructor, you seem to be in a bad mood….’

I turned some of the mana to myself and the cadets, and even caught a hydra.

It is said that he lost more than half of his head in a joint attack, but he was still a powerful monster.

Looking at the level of poison, he was by no means easygoing.

Wasn’t even the person himself instantly poisoned by the breath?

Leon had finally finished it alone.

“Get out of the woods. The cadets also seem to have come to their senses. It is difficult to recover mana here.”

I tried my best to pretend nothing was wrong, but in Enlil’s eyes I could see it.

He was a very tired and weary man who had to stand at the forefront for himself and his cadets.

Thank you for jumping forward without hesitation and saving my life.

‘Look at that. Your expression is also very bad. It’s clear that he spent a lot of mana after all.’

The symptoms of mana exhaustion that I myself have experienced many times.

It’s so hard that it can’t even be compared to being hungry.

It feels as if vitality is draining from the whole body.

Leon did everything in his power to reach that state.

In doing so, he saved himself and his students.

‘An act not for one’s own pleasure, but truly for the sake of the other person.’

I wanted to say thank you so much for saving my life.

Rion’s complexion looked too bad, so I gave up.

Later, later, when things get better, let’s say thank you again.

Quietly following Leon, Enlil made up his mind.

On the other hand, Leone—

‘I leaked. Leaked sh*t.’

The moment the hydra was dealt with, the suppressed power of the main body burst out.

I was wondering if Enlil had noticed that.
