The Only Daughter of Japan’s Greatest Blacksmith, Blacksmithing in VRMMO

Chapter 67

Cain’s side

「――Now for the real deal」

He has a black body that looks as if it will burst at any moment, and his eyes glowing red as he looks down from a height of 3 meters. The axe, which he could only hold with two hands before his madness, is now held in one hand. In addition, another axe taken out from his inventory turned him into a dual axe wielder.

「Fuu. That’s your way of being serious」

「Yeah. That’s right. No expense spared」

「That sort of thing」

「That sort of… that! !」

「Gu! !」

――Gaaaaan! ! ! … Dokooon! !

The attack was so heavy that the ground caved in. It was just a one-handed swing, but it was this powerful. I lost 30% of my HP at once. This was not good. If I had taken it straight, I would have died in three hits.

「Fun… Nuu! !」

「There’s more! !」

――Gaaan! Gaaaan! ! Gaaan! !

Mao started to attack repeatedly, a complete change from earlier. I avoided them and deflected them so as not to be hit head-on.

「Nuu… I can’t hit you… !」

「It’s going to get worse if things don’t change…」

「I’m gonna win!」

「I got someone I want to see, too!」

We exchange casual conversation as we attack each other. Both of us were slowly losing HP, and we were really running out of steam. But the thirty percent I lost earlier was huge. If we keep going like this, no matter how slow the pace, I’ll lose at some point.

――Should I use it… ?

But I want to use it against Ayane. She’s a shapeshifter like me, too.

Then, what should I do?

Even if I wanted to use my skills, I would be cut down and thrown away in the process.

If that’s the case!

「O… Raa! ! !」

I used the brief opportunity I had to flick the axe and throw my great sword at Mao’s chest. I’ll have to apologize to Ayane later.

Then, underneath the great sword I threw… I sneak into Mao’s chest from a position where I’m just out of sight of him, and climb up his body. The great sword was deflected, but I got here, so I won!

「Wha! What! ?」

「Shut up!」

「Gu! !」

I punched the bewildered Mao in the face and went around to his back.

「Fun! !」

「Ga! ?」

――Baki… ! !

――Shuuu…

Hearing the disgusting sound of bones breaking, I got off his back and picked up the great sword I had thrown earlier while watching Mao turn to light.

――……

――Uoooooooooo! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

A loud cheer breaks the momentary silence.

『An unexpected neck snap! ! It was a brilliant neck snap by player Cainnnn! ! ! ! ! ! !』

『Fumu! I didn’t think he’d try in that situation! ! I’m impressed! !』

『 Player Mao was great, too!』

『That’s right! Using his size to his advantage, he’s able to use two two-handed axes with both hands! ! I don’t understand what’s going on here, but there aren’t many people who can do it! !』

『That’s right! ! I wish I could be a muscle macho too! !』

「Stay as you areeee! ! ! ! !」

「We won’t let that happennnn! ! ! !」

『Ah, haha. Why are all my fans so enthusiastic… ?』

『I don’t know. People with fans are stra――』

「Brakija-san is cuter, stop screwing around or I’ll kill ya, you idiot!」

「Ahh! ? You’re the one who’s screwing around! Kyou-san is the greatestttt! ! !」

「――― ! !」

「― ! ?」

『Strange……』

『Hmm? ? ? Someone who has fans is what? ? ?』

『N- Nothing! !』
