Chapter 210 Ascending the Dragon and Slaying the Orc
Upon reaching the third floor, Yui Yuigahama and Yuki Suo witnessed an incredible scene, and they immediately forgot about the danger.
"It really is sunlight?"
"There's also soil and flowers...it's just like a grassland."
The two looked around the third floor, their expressions filled with awe.
After all, they knew very well that they had come down from above, but here, the scenery on the ground was appearing.
That's incredible.
"You've both read so many isekai novels, why are you still so surprised?" Xia Sheng looked at the two of them with amusement.
The two of them looked completely dumbfounded, as if they had never seen anything like it before.
Although, he arrived here around the same time.
"Of course! Cousin, you have to understand, novels are novels, and reality is reality. How could we not be surprised?" Suoh Yuki emphasized.
"Hmm...it's just because I read the novel that it's easier for me to accept," Yui Yuigahama added.
"Alright, but as much as you're surprised, don't forget the danger!"
"That's right!"
Yuki Suoh snapped out of her daze and immediately ran back to Natsuo's side, hugging his arm tightly.
Even through the sportswear jacket, Xia Sheng could clearly feel his arm being squeezed by something soft.
It seems I have indeed grown up.
I don't know if it's because he's been helping me these past few days.
"Cousin, good luck! Don't get hurt. I've already given you a reward." Suoh Yuki tilted her head up, staring at Natsumi with a serious expression, and commanded.
"Okay." Xia Sheng smiled and rubbed her head.
"Natsuo..." Yui Yuigahama came to his side and hugged him.
Xia Sheng felt that the softness was more intense on this side.
That's quite normal; Yui Yuigahama is a year older than Yuki Suo.
"You must prioritize protecting yourself," she whispered, her eyes pleading.
"Okay," Xia Sheng nodded in response.
"Yui-senpai, why don't you give your cousin a reward now?" Suoh Yuki tilted her head and looked at Yui Yuigahama, suddenly saying.
"A reward?" Yui Yuigahama looked at her in confusion.
"You should have read that book, right? It's the one where the princess gives you a blessing when the male lead is about to go into battle."
"That...."
"Yes, now is the time when my cousin needs your blessing."
"I... Natsuo... do you want it?" Yui Yuigahama looked at Natsuo, her eyes asking.
"If you don't mind here." Natsuo lowered his head and leaned closer to her. Yui Yuigahama released Natsuo's arm, raised her hands to cup his face, stood on tiptoe, her cheeks flushed, and kissed his forehead.
The soft touch on his forehead made Xia Sheng realize that he seemed to have truly received a blessing, and he felt inexplicably motivated.
That's really amazing.
However, he felt that it wasn't the kiss of blessing that was effective, but rather Yui Yuigahama's blessing.
Of course, the same would apply to Yukino Yukinoshita and the others.
After all, they were different in his heart.
"Yui-senpai, a kiss on the forehead isn't enough!" Suoh Yuki said unsatisfied.
"Feed?"
"It's not a novel, let's kiss!" Suoh Yuki urged.
"Uh, this..." Yui Yuigahama said, feeling embarrassed.
"Yui-senpai, what are you shy about? What's your relationship with your cousin? And didn't you kiss in front of me before?"
"Ugh..." Yui Yuigahama's face turned even redder.
"Don't you want your cousin to receive your blessing and win big?"
"Of course I want to!"
"Then let's act boldly, there's no time to lose."
Yui Ubihama bit her lip, looking shyly at Natsumi who was just staring at her, her gaze involuntarily falling on his lips.
"Is it...okay?"
"Do you even need to ask? Cousin, take the initiative." Suoh Yuki released Natsuo's arm.
Without hesitation, Natsumi wrapped his arms around Yui Yuigahama's waist and kissed her.
"Ugh!" The intense heat hit her face, and Yui Yuigahama involuntarily closed her eyes.
She wrapped her arms around Xia Sheng and took the initiative to open the gate, allowing him to take things a step further.
After all, it's not unfamiliar anymore.
Natsuo, naturally, didn't stand on ceremony. Ignoring the curious onlookers, Suoh Yuki rushed into the checkpoint, entangled the target, and obtained the blessing.
He held Yui Yuigahama tightly; her body was soft and yielding, and he wished he could pull her inside him.
The two of them acted as if no one else was around.
Yuki Suoh stood beside her, observing with bright eyes. She didn't feel jealous at all, only a sense of accomplishment.
Yui-senpai is too easy to fool; she falls for his tricks with just a little persuasion.
Hmph~ With her helping out like this, won't her cousin be even more touched and love her even more?
Natsuo had no idea about Suoh Yuki's scheme; he only knew that she was indeed helping out and was a good cousin.
After receiving a large amount of blessings, Natsumi and Yui Yuigahama parted ways, but Yui was already too weak to stand.
"Yuki, help Yui up."
"Cousin, are you satisfied with this?" Suoh Yuki helped Yuigahama Yui up.
She glanced at her face, which was already flushed, and her eyes were glazed over.
That must be really fun.
I wonder if Yui looks similar to what she experienced when she was a mother.
"It's definitely not enough, but the orcs are coming." Xia Sheng explained, turning to face the depths, his brows furrowed and staring intently.
The alarm bells in my heart are ringing frantically, but the fluctuations are much lower than yesterday.
The threat to him has decreased.
"The orcs are here?!"
Yuki Suoh was startled and immediately adjusted her attitude, helping Yui Yuigahama back to create some distance.
They can't be of much help; the best they can do is not cause trouble or hold us back.
"Natsuo...do your best..." Yui Yuigahama said in a weak but powerful voice.
"Okay." Xia Sheng nodded without turning his head.
With her blessing, he is now in high spirits and full of fighting spirit, as if he can overcome anything.
He drew his katana, pulled out the blade, and stared intently at the spatial fluctuations deep within.
Soon, a huge, pitch-black orc emerged. It was no different from the one from yesterday, and it had no weapons.
Xia Sheng observed it and found that its face was still slightly different from yesterday's.
I don't know what its personality is like. Is it as arrogant and conceited as others, or is it cautious and prudent?
Xia Sheng gripped his katana tightly and took small steps closer to it, intending to test it.
However, this half-orc behaved completely differently from the one from yesterday. It went straight at Xia Sheng, clenched its fist, and adopted a fighting stance.
Xia Sheng became more vigilant, maintained his distance, and released his magic.
A fireball quickly condensed and slammed directly at it.
Boom—!
But the orc wasn't going to ignore it; with a swing of his arm, he slammed the fireball aside.
The fireball exploded, and a wave of heat surged, but it ignored it and continued walking towards Xia Sheng.
Xia Sheng lowered his hand and stopped using magic to test them. Orcs were indeed resistant to magic; their skin, forged through countless trials, was indestructible.
There's only one weakness left.
Xia Sheng took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and knew that he only had one chance and couldn't rush things.
He charged towards the orc, activated his body-enhancing magic, and unleashed his katana technique, Cherry Blossom Blade Slash, rapidly advancing and delivering a powerful strike.
Xia Sheng suddenly accelerated, becoming a blur as he passed through the orc in the blink of an eye, a flash of white light passing by its waist.
A clanging sound, like metal clashing, rang out, but the orc was unharmed. It turned around and stared calmly at Xia Sheng.
Xia Sheng also turned around and stared at it, his breathing steady.
It's a good thing that this orc hasn't set his sights on Yui and her friends yet.
Yesterday, that one was so impatient with his harassment that it planned to attack Yukino Yukinoshita and the others to lure him into a trap.
They are thinking beings too.
Xia Sheng wasn't sure what the dog was thinking, but he didn't intend to delay; it was just a simple gua sha treatment.
We must resolve this quickly and defeat the enemy in one fell swoop.
He walked towards the orc again, his steps slow and steady.
The orc also approached him.
The distance between the two continued to close, from ten meters to five meters, getting closer and closer. Just then, Xia Sheng's figure suddenly disappeared.
The orc was taken aback.
The next moment, its eyes were pierced and black liquid burst out.
Xia Sheng's figure appeared, standing on the orc's shoulder, his katana held in both hands, only inserted into the orc's left eye socket.
"Hoichi!
The intense pain caused the orc to roar instantly, a roar that was deafening.
It cried out in pain, twisting its body and instinctively flailing its arms wildly, trying to grab Xia Sheng and crush him.
But how could Xia Sheng let it catch him? It gripped the hilt of the knife, twisted it around, and smashed the orc's eye sockets to pieces. Then, using the hand that had grabbed him, it kicked off and leaped high into the air.
In mid-air, he gripped the sword with both hands, his eyes fixed on the orc's head, and then brought it down heavily.
A shimmering white light enveloped the blade, imbued with magic, and the katana technique, Dragon Ascension, was unleashed!
This is the ultimate move that Xia Sheng mentioned.
The katana drew a white line in the air before slashing down hard into the orc's head—in its mangled left eye socket.
Bang bang bang!
A series of explosions rang out from inside the orc's body.
