Reincarnated Into A Human? Chapter 70 - Getting Stronger

I held onto the minotaur's horns as tight as I could. Blood started to trickle down the side of my mouth. Like a heartbeat, every so often electric shocks were being sent through my body. I couldn't hold on for much longer.

The minotaur had its head stuck out towards me, it's arms and legs grounded so it could use all its strength to try to push me further into the wall. Thankfully the minotaur's arms were quite short making it unable to reach me.

Just then, Gary, Monk and Noir appeared from behind it. They jumped on it's back and started to climb towards its neck. Gary was using his full strength with sword Ki but as soon as his blade went against the minotaur's neck, his blade completely shattered.

Monk was next with his two daggers, he was using Ki in his legs, enabling him to build up as much speed as possible before he struck. He too went for the neck as it looked like the softest place on the beast. As he dashed forward Monk went to stab the beast but his daggers just bounced off not even leaving a mark.

The last attempt was made by Noir, Noir managed to sink its teeth into the beast neck but the beast didn't even seem to react. Eventually, a pulse of electric ran through the minotaur's body shocking both I and Noir causing Noir to let go.

"We have to run!" Gary shouted!

"We can't even hurt the thing," Monk said.

To be honest, I was surprised the two of them didn't bolt it the second the plan didn't work. What was making them stay here? clearly, we were outcla.s.sed and there wasn't a chance we were going to survive this. If they left now I wouldn't even blame them.

"The second I let go of its horns it will pierce my body. You two just leave now, let Noir take you out of here!" I shouted.

"We can't do that! We are all getting out of here alive, this is all my fault, to begin with, I was the one who brought us here." Gary shouted.

Gary and Monk then quickly tried to gather their Ki and barge into the beast hoping it would fall over. When they collided into the minotaur it felt like they were trying to push a mountain. The beast didn't budge. Then a pulse of electric ran through its body causing Monk and Gary to be sent flying in the air.

The two of them quickly got up and attempted to try again.

Watching the two repeat the same thing over and over made an odd feeling rush over me. They didn't deserve to die in a hole like this. There were many humans that deserved a death like this but not them two.

"YES!" I shouted.

Suddenly notification screens started to sound like crazy.

"YES!" I shouted again.

Suddenly, the mana started to supplement mi Ki causing it to grow bigger. I moved the Ki into my hands as I was getting stronger, the minotaur electric felt like it was getting weaker.

Eventually, it seemed like I was winning in this tug of war with the minotaur. I was starting to push it back.

"Hey, can you see what I'm seeing?" Gary said.

"Yeah, for some reason it looks like the minotaur's getting weaker."

The minotaur's physical strength hadn't decreased as it looked like from the outside. The use of mana drain had drained the beasts mana and I was using that to strengthing my Ki.

Just when it looked like I had a chance to make some sort of comeback, the minotaur flung it's head in the sky, causing me to lose grip and fly into the air. Before my body had touched the ground, Noir had grabbed me in the air and brought me towards Monk and Gary.

There was a big problem now, I could no longer move. My body had received too many shocks when holding on, the only thing that had kept me going was the mana form the minotaur. Now that I was no longer holding onto the beast I could feel every bone and cell in my body screaming with pain.

As we all looked towards the minotaur it seemed to have regained some of its electrical powers back.

"We have to leave, let's just go down one of the holes." Gary looked at the closest one need by.

We quickly dashed towards one of the holes in the chamber but the minotaur could see our intention and had dashed over to block it before we could even get halfway towards it. It was far too fast with the electric charging it.

The minotaur then charged towards us. We all closed our eyes knowing what our fate was.

*Clash

The room began to shake as if two giants had just crashed into each other. The three of us slowly started to open our eyes, we half expected to see another beast had come and the two started to fight each other.

But what we saw was a human figure, he had a black scimitar held in his hand and the blade was currently pus.h.i.+ng against the minotaur's horns.

"Sir K!" Monk shouted.

Sir K was currently in front of our eyes fighting against the minotaur. He quickly removed his blade from its horns and slashed down cutting one of the minotaur's horns clean off. The minotaur roared in anger and manged to grab Sir K by the leg, slamming him into the ground. Blood shot out form Sir K's mouth.

Sir K then managed to slice one of the minotaur's fingers off, forcing it to let go of Sir K. It was a risky move to do, he needed to have the exact control and strength to pull back at the right time otherwise he would have sliced his own leg off.

The minotaur quickly charged at Sir K powering its legs with the electric, it was lightning fast. As the beast made contact with Sir K's body it seemed like it had phased right through him. The minotaur stopped also confused by what just happened.

What we thought was Sir K's body was an after image, Sir K was already on the beasts back. Before the minotaur could notice what had happened, Sir K brought his blade down slicing the Beast's head clean off.

As soon as Sir K had finished slaying the beast he started to walk over towards us.
