The Death Mage that doesn't want a fourth time

131 The spider-san's request to kill her

"W-who is this guy?! A monster tamed by one of the guys worshipping the gods on Vida's side?!" the Noble Orc blurted out in agitation.

"Leaving aside who is good or evil, I've now figured out who I need to defeat," said Vandalieu, understanding that the ones he needed to defeat first were indeed this Noble Orc and the Orcs that were his subordinates.

Keeping Princess Levia and the others hidden so as to not reveal his hand, but not wanting to fight on his own because everyone would worry, he had produced the enormous centipede monster Pete, and it seemed that he had successfully disturbed his enemies.

"Gishaah!" Pete hissed.

Incidentally, Vandalieu was not simply attached to Pete's belly. To be more precise, Pete was protruding from his own back through the Insect Binding Technique skill.

"K-kill him bugih!" the Noble Orc commanded his Orc subordinates with words of the Orc language (?) mixed in his speech, but the Orcs had also been shaken by the sight of Pete. And the Orcs present here were those that had been gathered hastily. Their ability and loyalty were several levels below what could be called elite standards.

They couldn't be blamed for backing away from the powerful-looking Pete. They were surrounding Pete with a semi-circular formation, but there weren't any that were willing to attack without any hesitation.

But Pete didn't hesitate as he charged at them.

"GISHAAAAH!"

"BUGIH?!"

Pete's body, which was covered in a shiny, black carapace, passed between the bow-wielding Orcs and Gizania, who was likely unable to move after having lost four of her legs, and lightning shot from his horns at the Orcs.

Saliva dripped from Pete's mouth at the delicious smell of burning flesh. However, it seemed that the Orcs' fighting instincts had been ignited after their allies were attacked.

One by one, they roared and charged at Pete, raising their heavy weapons.

However, the defensive power of Pete's carapace in its normal state was greater than knights wearing full suits of armor. And he was currently using Stone Form, a martial skill of the Armor Technique skill, so the Orcs' poor Axe Technique and Club Technique skills couldn't even scratch him.

In fact, their attacks only caused their own ends due to the electricity flowing from his horns.

"Bugigih!" the Noble Orc cheered as he saw a crimson fluid gushing from Pete.

"Bururururu!"

The crimson fluid flowing from Pete was not blood, but Kühl, who was now a Deep Blood Slime, emerging from Vandalieu.

"Bugurururu!" Kühl said as it attacked the nearby Orcs. It was complaining, as it seemed to have been electrically shocked by Pete.

"Gishaah..."

"Bugih!"

Watching an Orc be dissolved alive and absorbed by Kühl as he let out a dying scream, the Noble Orc realized that his subordinates could not win against these enemies no matter how much the numbers were in their favor, so he raised his trusty greatsword and joined the battle.

The Noble Orc was indeed of a superior race; his agility far surpassed those of his subordinate Orcs.

"BUGOOOH!"

He avoided the part of Kühl's body that had been extended like a tentacle and then released a Swordsmanship martial skill superior to Triple Thrust – Hundred Furious Thrusts.
