form.
She seems to be enjoying herself.
Well, it’s fine.
I’ve gained Slyphy’s approval that my defense has increased dramatically.
Let’s defeat the enemies quickly and be done with it.

 

“Bell, please cast Wind Wall.”

 

“Yes!”

 

Bell chants and a cocoon of wind forms around me, about a meter away.
At first, Wind Wall reacted even to my weapons, making it quite problematic.
But through repeated improvements, it no longer responds to my attacks.
I don’t understand the logic behind it.

 

“Thank you, Bell.
I’m going in now.
Please watch my back in case I’m in danger or if we encounter enemies I can’t defeat.”

 

“Leave it to me!”


 

“Kyuu.”

 

“I’ll protect you.”

 

“Okay.
Thanks.
Let’s go!”

 

As a precaution, I approached the entrance and quickly placed a rock that I had stored away, then retreated.
As soon as the sound was heard, a barrage of magic and arrows rained down, pulverizing the rock in no time.

 

“Wow, if we had just walked in, we would have been hit by that attack.
It’s a good thing we reinforced our defense,” I commented.

 

“That’s true.
But what will you do now? Even if you try to enter, that attack will come.
With your current defense, it should be fine, but do we charge in?” Slyphy asked.

 

I don’t want to.
But what else can we do?

 

“Slyphy, if they keep using arrows, they will run out eventually, but do undead creatures run out of magic?”

 

“Mages can run out of magic if they use spells repeatedly, but Liches have abundant magic, so it’s difficult,” she explained.

 

“I see.
Well, let’s try to make the mage run out of magic then.
It would be great if they also ran out of arrows,” I said.

 

I placed another rock at the entrance and quickly retreated.
The same thing happened as before, with the rock being pulverized.
How many times will they fall for it? I hope they get impatient and break formation.
I placed a third rock and retreated, but no attack came.

 

“Slyphy, how long do you think it takes for them to run out of magic?”

 

“I don’t think that’s enough.
They haven’t broken formation and are still attacking, so they’re probably trying to identify their target before attacking,” she replied.

 

Right, with intelligence, they’ll take measures.
What should we do? Even if it’s safe to charge in, I don’t want to.

 

“Um… I got it! Slyphy, since they were attacking the rock, they don’t know my exact location, right?” I suggested.

 

“That seems to be the case.
They probably don’t have the ability to search,” she agreed.


 

If that’s the case, then it’s okay.
Ask Slyphy for detailed information on the enemy’s positions and layout and move to the adjacent room.
Take out the magic saw and make a slit in the wall silently.

 

“Oh, that’s a good idea.
There’s no need to be foolishly honest and enter head-on.
It’s better to rush in from where they’re not cautious,” Slyphy says, nodding in agreement.

 

From here on out, they should be surprised.
Rush in and beat them up all at once.
Yuta swings his hammer to its maximum size and strikes it with all his might on the wall he just cut.

 

A deafening roar echoes, and the fragments of the wall fly towards the enemies inside.
At the same time, he charges in and knocks away the zombie knights and skeleton knights that are guarding the outside, while heading straight for the Lich.

 

As expected of someone on par with the King’s level.
Not only skeletons but also zombies, and knights are thickly packed.
He wants to reach the Lich as quickly as possible before recovering from the chaos.

 

He moves forward with all his might, passing through the knights, knocking away archers and mages, and preparing to strike down the Lich with his hammer.
At that moment, a spear is thrust out from both sides simultaneously.

 

He panics and rolls to avoid the attack.
Seeing the spearhead hit the wind wall and bounce off, he grits his teeth, realizing that he should have just charged straight ahead.
In the meantime, the Lich has hidden behind the meat wall.

 

Both the Zombie and Skeleton General, who came to attack him, are difficult to deal with.
It seems that higher-ranked enemies have faster responses.
He has stopped, and now he’s surrounded by enemies.
If he stays still, he’ll be hit by a coordinated attack.
He decides to take out the General first.

 

He swings his hammer and charges in with full force.
The Skeleton General and General Zombie both thrust their spears out, but he had seen them bounce off the wind wall earlier, so this time he doesn’t dodge.

 

He aims for where the wind wall had deflected the spears and swings his hammer horizontally, knocking both Generals away with a single blow.

 

He trusts in his defense and uses his skill, “Hammer Spin”.
The giant hammer starts to spin around him in a circle.

 

…The skill doesn’t make him dizzy, but the zombies that are caught in the high-speed spinning hammer get minced and blown away, which is gruesome.
He moves while spinning and sweeping up the enemies to escape from the encirclement.
He feels a little unsteady, but it’s not a problem.

 

However, two consecutive failed assaults.
Until the battle with the General last time, he could usually take out the boss by charging in, but it seems impossible against intelligent enemies.

 

What should I do? Go back to grinding them down bit by bit? Honestly, there are a lot of enemies, and it’s troublesome.
While thinking, I run around and dodge the magic and arrows that are flying towards me.

 

Even if I defeats both Zombie and Skeleton Generals, the enemies won’t be disordered, and I still needs to defeat the Lich.

 

While thinking if there’s a better way, I keeps running around and chipping away at the enemies.
Should I ask Bell and the others to use magic or keep grinding them down? The wind wall occasionally deflects the magic and arrows that almost hit me, so grinding them down is not a problem.
I decide to keep grinding them down and work hard again.
