Aldred stood up in front of the pair of large, black gate. It gave him the chill just by looking at it. Something ominous lay beyond it—the dungeon boss. He took a deep breath and let it out. He felt nervous like he had to give a power point presentation in front of the class. But he knew he had to advance forward, if not then he wouldn't progress in his path to power. His father, Hujarar, became the king of hell at the age of seven, while Aldred still weak as fly at the age of ten.
Comparing himself to his father made him felt like shit. He sighed again. 'Comparison is the killer of all joy.'
But before he could fight the boss, Aldred had to increase his skill first. He currently had 42 skill points and 10 stat points. For stat points he put it all on intelligence as it would increase his magic damage. That bring intelligence at the total of 46.
And for the skills, he upgraded fireball to Lv. 4, Fire bullets to Lv. 4, Fire arrows to Lv. 4, and Flame Jet to level 3. That consumed all of his skills points.
He stepped forward, reaching out with both palm to push open the door. The gate creaked with a heavy strain, and thud when it was fully open. The gate open up to an arena at the tip of the mountain.
"Where is the boss?" Aldred asked.
"I don't know, man. I just want my fish," Pongo said. "I've been meaning to ask."
"What?" Aldred still looked around.
"You're a ten year old right?"
"Yeah?"
"Then why are you still drinking breast milk?"
"Is there any laws that says I cannot do that?"
"Fuck. Grow up, man. You wouldn't be a proper man if you keep drinking breast milk."
"Said the talking penguin who had human feces in its stomach."
"Keep my stomach out of your fucking mouth."
"Or what? You gonna throw human feces at me again?" Aldred stared at him.
"Oh you wanna try me?" Pongo stared back.
Something landed on the arena, but both Aldred and Pongo did not realize it.
"Try you? You're you just a little penguin."
"Who you call penguin?"
"You, dumb ass. Find yourself a mirror."
Pongo gritted his beak. He vomited a small human feces, and threw it at Aldred.
Aldred grinned and blasted the feces with fire bullets.
"Fuck!" Pongo aimed with his beak and fired a series of feces at him.
Aldred dodged it easily and blasted a bunch of them. His godly eyes scanned their trajectory, and it made it easier to dodge all these feces.
"Take this! Pew pew pew."
Three fire bullets struck Pongo in the stomach, which made him winced in pain.
"Fuck you! Imma kill you right now! I am not known as Pongo The Conquerer for my generosity!"
Pongo vomited a slimy and smelly feces.
The beast on the arena roared.
"Shut up!" Pongo throw the feces at it.
It shot forward with great speed, and covered the beast's face with it. Some part of it trickled to the floor.
Only then did they realize the monster had already arrived.
The monster was enraged. How dare did this puny little creature throw shit at it.
[War Torn Ogre]
Level: 29
Power: Dunk master, Penalty kick, Dribble legend.
History: War Torn Ogre was a former professional sport players that play for the lakers, and the Manchester United. He had talent and fame, alas he was killed by a truck when he was having sex in his room at the 41 Th floor of the apartment. He was reincarnated as an ogre in a world filled with 99% hot female, but he also had to fight against alien invasion to protect it. Alas, the alien used their most powerful weapons— throwing truck from the sky. And once again he was killed and reincarnated as a dungeon boss.
Aldred was speechless. This War Torn Ogre had the time of his life. First he was a famous sport player, second he was reincarnated in paradise, but unfortunately, at the end, he became a dungeon boss that Aldred had to kill.
What a pitiful life…
No fuck that! This guy already live in paradise in two of his lifetime! For all the cultured men out there, Aldred had to kill this guy. And because this had become a personal matter, he decided to fight it alone with the exception of Pongo. Actually, the undead were just too weak to fight against the boss right now.
"Pongo, let's work together to beat this guy."
"Hell no. Let me throw shit at you first."
"Fuck you! I'm going to roast you if you don't comply."
Pongo clicked his tongue. "Fine! You confront it while I stay at the back. I will give you support whenever possible."
Aldred wanted to eat the penguin right then and there. "Fuck it!" Aldred stared at the beast and pointed at him. "Come here and fight!"
The War Torn Ogre stood at three meters tall with a large axe in his right hand. He had a pair of tusk coming out of his mouth, and green skin covered his body. When the boy taunted him, War Torn was enraged. He roared and charged before leaping supernaturally and raising the axe high.
"Dunk Master!"
"Shit!" Aldred activated Flame Jet and dodged to the side.
The axe landed, cracking the ground and creating a two meter crater.
"Pew pew pew pew pew."
Because Aldred had upgraded his fire bullets to Lv. 4, his rate of fire was similar to that of a machine gun. The storm of fire bullets flew at the beast, but it's thick skin mitigated most of the damage.
Aldred activated his fire arrows skill. Instead of shooting one by one, Aldred fired three fire arrows rapidly. The first two arrows deflected off the left shoulder, but the third one penetrated it slightly.
The boss ogre roared in pain. It struck, and Aldred flew to the side, stumbling before he balanced himself. He took a few steps backward, both hands raised ready to attack. The ogre stared at him with an aggressive posture. Despite its large size, it moved far nimbler than Aldred expected.
The small wound on the left shoulder was a start. Aldred wanted to focus his attack on that part. He sent fire arrows trying to enlarge the wound. The ogre ducked, letting the fire arrows zipped above its head.
It raised the large axe, six feet tall, and swung down, slamming onto Aldred. The boy aimed both hands to left and the flame jet pushed him off. He rolled on the ground before standing up. Damn ogre.
The boss ogre started running at him. Aldred decided to bring the fight closer and approached. Using his godly eyes, Aldred calculated the speed and trajectory of the axe, and dodged accordingly. Aldred ducked down as the axe came crashing. He put his palm on the right thigh of the monster and blasted it with flame jet.
Flame jet was upgraded to level 3, so the range and damage of the jet was strong enough to create a bigger wound on the monster.
The ogre staggered. Its right leg limping as it took a few steps back.
The War Torn Ogre roared to the sky and forced its broken leg to rush at him. Aldred panicked and quickly dodged away, but Pongo was standing behind him.
"Penalty Kick!"
The ogre's huge, green leg slammed onto the penguin's tiny, squishy body.
Pongo couldn't even say anything as blood came out of his mouth and then he crashed onto the gates. The gates were destroyed. Pongo was laying down with his tongue out.
"GOAL!" The ogre roared.
[War Torn Ogre has made a goal. Evolving…]
"Oy, what the fuck!"
The ogre's body swelled. It became larger and larger until it reached five-meter tall. Suddenly, a pair of green wings ripped itself out from the back of the ogre.
The ogre closed its eyes and took a deep breath. It then stared at Aldred with a hideous grin. "Time for stage two, bitch."
It grabbed Pongo, and then bounce him up and down to the ground.
"Dribble Legend." The ogre moved much more nimbly as it approached Aldred while dribbling Pongo with the left hand.
Its movement was so unpredictable. Even with all the calculations done by his godly eyes, his brain couldn't keep up. In the end, the godly eyes were just a tool. If he did not master how to use it, the tool would become useless.
It then flapped its wings, and jumped to the sky, raising Pongo high.
"Dunk Master!"
The ogre came crashing down like a meteor. Aldred dodged, but even with that, the force of the impact was too strong that it blew him away.
The arena cracked. Aldred pushed himself off the ground.
Pongo had both of his eyes rolling inside his brain. Yeah, he was dead for sure.
The ogre sprinted forward. Aldred released fire bullets at him. The ogre leaped to the side, rolled, and then flipped, shortening the distance between him and Aldred.
"Is this guy a fucking gymnast as well?"
Aldred was about to move away from the monster, but suddenly, its feet thundered the ground, leaving a mark as it shot forward with shocking speed.
The godly eyes calculated the force and suggested a possible way to survive. Aldred panicked and followed the instruction without thinking. He pushed his palm to meet the fist, and before both of them touched, Aldred activated his flame jet, blasting the fist as his face got punched.
Aldred's back dragged on the rough surface for a few meters before he raised his body, trembling in pain. His whole back was scraped, and it made it hard to stand. But he did. He recalled what Mary said about the empress. She stood up even when life struck her down.
He had to do it as well. He gave up on his last life, but not this time. This time he had to become strong enough so whatever life threw at him, he'd take it with open arms.
The ogre eyed him with determination as well. Its right fist was destroyed. Aldred could tell the ogre must be a man who never gave up. Aldred smiled.
"No matter who is the winner in this fight, let us respect each other."
The ogre nodded. It considered the boy as its peer.
Aldred activated the flame jet on his palm and feet. At level 2, flame jet already allow edhim to shoot out jet from his feet. He flew to the sky.
The ogre flapped its wings and followed.
They both stared at each other in the air. Then at the same time, they both bolted at each other.
The ogre swung its axe, while Aldred shoot it with flame jet.
They both went past each other and went at it again. The ogre kicked Aldred's stomach. He spat out blood and gritted his teeth as he aimed. "Fireball. Fireball. Fireball."
Since the fireball was upgraded to level 4, it was larger and more powerful than before. But that was not it.
The ogre flew to the side, trying to dodge it. But shockingly, the three fireballs followed.
Aldred laughed. He aimed once again. "Target locked. Ready to fire. Firing! Pew pew pew pew pew pew."
Dozens of fireballs shot out of his fingers and chase the ogre.
The ogre was overwhelmed by all the fireballs chasing it. It roared and slashed at one of them. It exploded, followed by the other fireball, and created a series of explosions in the sky.
Aldred did not want to let any chances go away. A hail of bullets whistled towards the explosion.
The ogre's body came out of the explosion, falling. Its body was tattered with wounds. The wings in particular were full of holes. It landed on the ground with a loud thud. The axe clanged beside it.
Aldred floated down before deactivating his flame jet. He approached the ogre. "That was a good fight."
The ogre smiled. "I have lost more than a thousand times. I have failed even more. But I keep going." The ogre looked at Aldred. "I hope you keep fighting as well. No matter your goal. No matter your dream. Fight for it."
Aldred looked at the ogre and sighed. "I know this is where I should be crying and hugging you, but you are too hideous. I am sorry."
The ogre laughed. "You're a funny kid. It seems like I got another chance to be reincarnated. Maybe we can meet again."
"Oh yeah? What will you reincarnate into?"
"It says here I am going to reincarnate as a tree."
"Shit! There's gazzilion of trees in this world, how would I know which one is you?"
The ogre smiled and started to dissipate into light. "May we meet again."
The lights flew to the sky and disappeared.
"Cough cough cough." Pongo woke up and looked around. "Where is that ogre? I am going to kick his ass for playing me rough."
"You still alive?"
"Why the fuck do you sound disappointed?"
"It's that obvious huh."
"Fuck you!"
Aldred ignored the penguin and looked at the screen.
