Volume 7 Chapter 61: Put On The Helmet!
"Let's do this, everyone!" Keith cheered! They were at the front of the dungeon; he was raring to go this time.
He wasn't the only one.
"Yeah!" "Let's do this!" Herrick and Melor were the same as well. Everyone could see the fire in their eyes. Alfia and the others shook their heads.
"We haven't even entered the dungeon yet. We're not going to fight the bison any time soon." It would take some time before the group arrived at the monsters. They would need to take out the bulls to get there.
"Mgh." That definitely burst the two fighters' bubble. Keith couldn't help but chuckle, "Come on, we got this. Let's go in now." Everyone nodded in agreement as they made their way down.
When they arrived on the first floor,
"Moo!" Not even a second, and the group heard multiple powerful calls. The grass started to tremble from how strong it was. Keith shouted,
"Prepare!" And that was what everyone did. They raised their weapons and chanted. Those voices came from one direction. Suddenly, the ground vibrated as they charged!
"Why are there so many?!" Faelyn blinked as she noticed the massive number of bulls rushing at them. That was when Keith smacked his giant shield with his blade. The bulls' attention was directed to this as they rushed at him.
Raising his shield, the man was prepared to take the brunt of it. Horns collided with metal, creating a resonant sound. With as much force he could muster, Keith swung his shield, sending them back.
"Our time to shine!" "Yeah." "Hmpf!" Herrick, Melor, and Krystal swung down. That moment of hesitation was their chance to pounce! And that wasn't the only thing. A rain of magic spears and swords fell upon the bulls, piercing them.
While the front was destroyed, some bulls tried to get through from the side. However, what awaited them was a steel arrowhead piercing through their head and spears of earth running them down.
It was quite the sight. There was no escape for the bulls.
"Good job, everyone." Keith sighed. That battle didn't last even a minute!
Pure obliteration!
"We killed it faster than last time." The speed at which the group defeated the bulls was shorter than the first time they faced off.
"I think it's because we grew in that time." The entire group was practicing instead of resting and relaxing. No wonder they took them down faster.
"Also, we have two more members as well." Carolyn sent magic flying at the bulls while Krystal sliced them left and right. The extra firepower would definitely make the group go forward quicker.
"Also, there's you as well," Jack muttered. Having Keith as their tank was helpful. The one difference that was apparent to everyone was the big man in front.
"The shield really helps out." This was one of the things he commissioned from Skar. The shield was made out of chromium steel. It wasn't as heavy as black iron; however, the durability was about the same.
Bright colors really do draw their attention. The shield used bright colors. Keith got a tip from Craig and the rest of Steel Crusader; bright colors were perfect for attracting monsters.
"I'm more surprised you can still move with all that armor on," Carolyn commented. Besides the giant shield, Keith wore black armor. Unlike the armor he wore before, this one was more bulkier. It was clear to the others that he emphasized defense over everything.
"Don't you have a helmet as well, Leader?" Arlo questioned. He remembered the armor came with a helmet.
Keith's face scrunched up, "Don't need it. It blocks my field of vision."
"That's because you don't want to wear it because it's ugly." Jack retorted.
"...I don't know what you're talking about."
"Literally, if you wore it, you could be encased in flames, and you would survive."
"..."
"I got it right here." Herrick then brought something out. It was a black helmet with two horns.
"I thought I left it at home!" He swore he tossed it to the side.
"I saw it, and it looked cool."
"..."
"Put it on." "Yeah."
"..." Keith sighed deeply before nodding, "Fine." He placed the helmet on. And the moment he did,
"Yep, you should wear that from now on." Behind those comments were giggles.
"..." Keith took a deep sigh before shouting, "Let's head down to the third floor!" That was the destination they needed to return to.
"Vengeance!"
"…" Okay then.
…
Cadmus groaned, "Hah, that kid really is going to be the death of me." How could he make random decisions like that? There was no preparation at all!
Sohma entered the office, and Cadmus noticed, "What's the matter with you?"
"There's a letter here for us."
"Eh? From who?"
"It has the Rustchil Emblem."
“…”
