OVERLORD: The Second Supreme Being

Chapter 29: Chapter 29: The Giant Basilisk



After three days of grinding, Peroroncino's humanoid character had reached level 15. However, his combat ability had already surpassed that, equating to the strength of a typical level 20 fighter. Moreover, he had mastered five skills:

[Slash], [Flowing Acceleration], [Fortress], [Draw Slash], and [Flame].

"It feels like hunting these ogres and goblins isn't yielding much experience anymore," Peroroncino muttered.

"Lord Chino, Lady Nabe has sent a message. There's a Adamantite-level mission she's transferring to us. Once completed, it might elevate us to Adamantite-ranked adventurers," Yulia informed him.

"Oh? What's the mission?"

"To eliminate a colossal magical beast—a giant basilisk."

After Shalltear's demise, Momonga had Mare repair the area. Transforming an entire basin was too conspicuous, so it was adjusted to a more modest 100-meter radius. Upon investigation, the Adventurer's Guild awarded Momonga the title of Adamantite-ranked adventurer for his efforts.

"Let's head to the Adventurer's Guild to accept the mission," Peroroncino announced.

The trio made their way to the Guild. After taking the mission, they also registered Nana for an adventurer's ID. At first, the receptionist hesitated, unwilling to issue a license for such a young girl.

That changed when Nana casually snapped a wooden chair in half with her bare hands. With a shocked expression, the receptionist finally handed over an copper-tier adventurer's tag for Nana.

As they prepared to depart, Nabe arrived.

"Lord Chino, Lord Momon has tasked me with temporarily handing over Hamsuke to you. It will assist in tracking down the giant magical beast," she said.

"I, Hamsuke, will faithfully carry out my master's orders!"

"This fur is amazing! It looks so comfy—I bet it's perfect to lie on," Peroroncino said, immediately sprawling across Hamsuke's back.

"Alright, Hamsuke, let's find that giant beast."

The trio and their new companion quickly reached the marked area, a desolate wilderness.

Peroroncino dismounted and addressed Hamsuke:

"Hamsuke, can you locate the beast?"

"It will take some time, my supreme lord. Please wait; I shall drive it here shortly," Hamsuke replied, darting into the distance.

"Chino-niisan, Hamsuke is so cute!" Nana exclaimed.

"True, she really is adorable," Peroroncino replied, patting Nana on the head.

"Nana is getting cuter and cuter. I almost… Wait, what am I thinking? She's only seven!" Peroroncino scratched his head, trying to clear his mind.

"Peroroncino, control yourself. Wait until she's at least 14," he thought, shaking his head.

In the meantime, he kept absentmindedly stroking Nana's hair.

"If you're bored, Lord Peroroncino, feel free to play with me as you wish," Yulia interjected.

"I also brought along the lace stockings—black, white, fishnet—the handcuffs, candles, and ropes you ordered. Which would you like to use?"

"Ahem! Not here! This isn't the right place for that!" Peroroncino coughed awkwardly.

"Isn't this kind of place what makes it exciting?" Yulia responded, her innocent expression contrasting with her bold words.

"I don't like being watched, especially by Hamsuke. Let's save it for another time—there's work to do now," Peroroncino replied, dodging the topic.

"My lord, I've driven the giant magical beast to this location," Hamsuke announced, returning.

[Eye of Insight]

Giant Basilisk

Level: 34

Skills: Petrifying Gaze, Corrosive Venom

"Yulia, make sure to leave it alive, but just barely," Peroroncino instructed.

"Understood."

[Sword Shadow]

Yulia split into two figures, attacking the basilisk from both sides. Despite being larger than Hamsuke, the basilisk seemed terrified of it, desperately fleeing while Hamsuke thumped the ground with its tail.

"Slash! Thousand Sword Shadows!"

Yulia and her clone relentlessly assaulted the basilisk, severing its limbs and tail. Deep wounds crisscrossed its massive body.

Peroroncino approached the weakened beast, ready to deliver the finishing blow.

The basilisk's eyes glowed white, focusing its [Petrifying Gaze] on him in desperation.

"Too bad for you. I'm wearing an item that grants immunity to control and negative effects," Peroroncino said with a smirk, raising his blade.

With one swift stroke, he decapitated the basilisk, watching as its enormous head fell to the ground.

His level rose to 23.
