NOVEL NEXT Chapter 24: Chapter 24: Forbidden Skill
Being surrounded by Gepard, Pela and a large number of Crinargenta Guards, we had no choice but to fight.
-Go my brave heroes! Fight for me!
-Again you will be staying behind?!
-Silence March, don't you see I have the hostage? How do you want me to fight with Bronya in my arms?
-Is it me or am I being told to shut up too often?
While Stelle, Dan Heng and March were facing the guards, I stayed behind them with Bronya unconscious in my arms. I can feel Gepard and Pela's gazes on me, they seem to be very cautious of my movements; very good intuition! Unfortunately, I don't intend to do much yet.
As I am carrying Bronya in my arms, no Crinargenta Guard dared to shoot me carelessly. This forced them to have to approach me to rescue the hostage.
When a guard tried to attack me from behind, I spilled a cup of coffee on him and he started screaming.
-Gyaaaaaaaaaah I'm burning! And it's so bitter! Ugh...
Wow, he passed out. I didn't think the effects would be immediate.
Then, a brilliant idea crossed my brilliant mind....
-Wait a minute...
-And now what did you come up with?
At this point, March's intuition about my random impulses became extremely acute. She felt a bad feeling again....
If that's the case.
With a graceful motion, I pulled out numerous coffee cups from my inventory and tossed them into the air with a rotating effect.
-Forbidden skill: Rain of Bitter Disappointment!
-What a creative name but what a disappointing skill!
Coffee began to spill everywhere and the Crinargenta Guards began to drop like flies.
-Aaaaaaaaaagh!
-H-help! So bitter!
-I can't stand bitterness! I'm going to die!
-H-help! I'm caffeine intolerant!
-Did it really work?! Wait...! Kyaaaah! He's messing me up too! Dan Heng, Stelle, please someone stop Nadie!
Leaving aside the only one in real danger (the caffeine intolerant one), Dan Heng and Stelle watched the absurd development with their eyes rolling. Only March 7 found herself preoccupied with the rain of coffee that threatened to spill on top of her.
-More than half fell. As expected of the great me, I am too strong.
-Nadie, stop throwing Himeko's coffee, you're wasting food!
-Good tsukkomi, March. At this rate, we might even become professional comedians after we retire.
-In your dreams!
Stelle and Dan Heng watched March gasp breathlessly from the side in silence, this made March feel uncomfortable....
-What?!
--Nothing...
With no choice, Gepard and Pela stepped forward to block our path.
-That coffee turned out to be much more threatening than we thought. Intelligence Officer Pelageya, please take care of the fallen soldiers; I will take care of the criminals.
-Please be careful Captain Gepard, there is something very strange in that cafe. I don't detect any poison in the liquid but everyone falls unconscious at the slightest touch. Luckily, the only one in danger is a guard with caffeine intolerance; the rest are just unconscious.
The fact that my improvised attack worked so well left a strange taste in everyone's mouth.... Ah, no, it's coffee.
-Crinargenta Guard, follow me! We will stop the criminals here and now!
--------Yes Captain Gepard!
It seems that here Gepard will replace Bronya as the middle boss of the game.
-Well, the result will be the same anyway. Come if you dare!
Again, I pointed the coffee threateningly at Gepard again and this time I intimidated all the guards a bit.
-I can't believe Nadie is intimidating them with coffee for real...
At this point, March was done screaming. She just sighed in surrender to the absurd situation and silently accepted the reality...
-Ha!
I made the first move, I threw a cup of coffee at Gepard but he blocked it with his shield.
-Too slow!
-Tsk.
Because the liquid spills out when you throw it, I can't throw them carelessly or I won't hit my targets where I want. This made my attacks very easy to block.
-Although your coffee is very dangerous, you seem to have trouble throwing them. That leaves a lot of openings! Take this!
-Shit!
Gepard charges towards me using his skill: Overwhelming Strike. At this close distance I won't be able to dodge it!
This is bad! I'm gonna get hit! Unless...!
At that very instant, another brilliant idea flashed through my brilliant mind! I blocked Gepard's attack using Bronya's body!
-Hyaah!
-What?!
This made Gepard, Pela and everyone else's eyes widen in disbelief. As for March, she spat, coughed roughly and reacted furiously.
-Pffth! He did it! Nadie really used the Supreme Guardian's daughter as a shield!
Things didn't end there. As a Chinese saying goes: "the best defense is a good offense."
After using Bronya as a shield, now I used her as a spear to attack!
-Ha!
-W-wait!
I ignored Gepard's protests and attacked without stopping using Bronya's head as the tip of a spear.
*Kang! Kong! Bam!*
The sound of metal and head colliding with each other went on and on.
-O-okay! I give up, I give up! Please stop using Commander Bronya as a spear!
-Ha! You think I'll fall for your lies?! How naive of you Gepard, I won't fall for your mind games!
-Please stop!
At this point, even March was crying. Stelle was laughing out loud while holding her stomach and Dan Heng was massaging his eyebrows in pain.
-Tsk. As expected from the Captain of the Crinargenta Guard, no attack works, but at least I destroyed any chance of counterattack.
-Please someone stop this guy...
-But don't think it's all over here!
My sudden statement made both Gepard and March break out in a cold sweat.
-The ultimate skill of my 5 star weapon Bronya Rand can increase the attack of all allies up to 59.4% and increase critical damage by 16.8% of Bronya's critical damage plus 21.6% for 2 turns!
-What is this madman saying...?
-Charge!
-Please wait!
When he was about to attack Gepard again using Bronya as a weapon and Gepard blocking with his shield, smoke bombs exploded everywhere.
-Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to ruin the intensity of the moment!
A mocking voice echoed throughout the place.
-What is this?!
The Crinargenta Guards began to fall asleep; Stelle, Dan Heng and March as well....
-I can't breathe...
Only Gepard was standing with difficulty thanks to his talent: Iron Will.
-I have to say... Sampo never lets the friends who have helped him get hurt. I say what I think and I think what I say...! Hey! Wait!
As Sampo made his entrance, I took advantage and grabbed his ankle. Then I had unlocked it, the ultimate attack!
-Forbidden skill, Nitōryū: Cross of the Divine Tempest!
-Auch!
Sampo screamed in pain and Gepard fell before my power without even having a chance to make a single sound.
