Chapter 67

*Thud!*

The iron mace struck Amukan's broad back.

“*Choke!*”

Amukan spat out blood.

“What? A worm? You're dead.”

Oto, with eyes gleaming with madness, began to beat Amukan enthusiastically.

“Is it because you have a wide back? There are so many places to hit.”

“*Cough!*”

“Straighten your back. Your spine will go out.”

“*Scream!*”

“Huh? Can't stand straight?”

Oto's brutal beating of Amukan was merciless to the extreme.

I can understand fighting to the death when they met as enemies.

But he couldn't tolerate the disrespect and the insult of being called a worm.

“*Scream!*”

Amukan, experiencing the first beating of his life, screamed and couldn't regain his composure.

The warrior of the Havre Plain, known for his ruthlessness and ferocity, even Amukan, who was at the pinnacle, couldn't withstand the relentless blows.

“Tsk tsk.”

Kairos shook his head as he watched Oto beating Amukan.

“What a wretched fellow.”

“Why are you doing that, sir? Perhaps….”

Camille thought Kairos was criticizing Oto's uncouth behavior, but she was very wrong.

“How can you properly inflict pain by beating like that?”

“Huh…?”

“Beating should be done,” Kairos said with a serious expression.

“Gently. With a consistent force. Quickly. Mechanically.”

“Huh? What do you mean…?”

“The key is to subtly send mana to activate the nerves of the one being hit. This amplifies the pain by at least three times.”

“...”

“That way, the one being hit won't be seriously injured but will only feel the pain. How can your lord not even know how to beat someone properly? Tsk tsk tsk. What a wretched fellow.”

Camille, hearing Kairos's words, felt dizzy and closed her eyes tightly.

‘He’s not a torturer or anything.’

The so-called absolute ruler and emperor who once ruled a third of the continent was spouting words like a cruel torturer….

‘This guy and that guy.’

Camille thought Oto and Kairos were the same kind of people.

And it was true.

Both Oto and Kairos were clearly nuts.

They were people who, lacking the dignity and decorum of rulers, acted on their whims.

30 minutes later.

“*Pant*, *pant*….”

Oto panted heavily, exhausted from beating Amukan like minced meat.

“Look at this endurance? He doesn’t even faint?”

Oto looked down at Amukan with a look of disgust.

“*Choke*, *choke*….”

Surprisingly, Amukan was still conscious.

Of course, he was battered and bruised, but thanks to Oto's controlled strength, he didn’t die.

If it were Kairos, he would have beaten him more technically (?)….

[Notice: You have defeated <Amukan>!]

[Notice: Your experience has increased!]

[Notice: Level 97 achieved!]

[Notice: Level 98 achieved!]

[Notice: Level 99 achieved!]

[Notice: Level 100 achieved!]

Thanks to defeating the lord character Amukan, Oto gained a huge amount of experience, raising his level by 4 to reach level 100.

[Notice: Amukan's potential has weakened!]

[Notice: The potential of the Korgirat tribe has weakened!]

[Notice: Amukan's storyline has been deleted!]

A notification window appeared in front of Oto.

The notification meant that Amukan had lost his position as a lord of 100 people and was removed from the game storyline.

This was a phenomenon that occurred when a lord was defeated by another lord.

It meant that he could no longer enjoy his unique storyline, various quests, and benefits.

Of course, this didn’t apply to Oto de Scuderi, a notorious trash character with nothing to his name.

“What do we do now?”

Camille asked Oto.

“What do you mean, what do we do?”

“Should we finish him off?”

Camille subtly placed her hand on the hilt of her sword.

“Me, me?”

Oto jumped back in shock.

“...”

Camille, irritated by Oto's whining, tried to calm herself and silently pointed at Amukan.

“He has paid enough, I think.”

After all, he had been beaten like dust in the rain, so he had paid his dues to some extent.

Now, granting him his wish to end his life wasn't such a bad choice.

“There's no need to kill him, so just heal him roughly.”

“Are you sure?”

“He’s not the type to seek revenge for a defeat. He’s quite a decent guy in that aspect. Don’t kill the other survivors either. There’s no need to.”

“Understood.”

As Oto gave the order, the swordsmen approached Amukan and the Korgirat tribe warriors, casting healing spells and providing emergency care.

‘Is it done now?’

Just as Oto was thinking this,

“Thank you very much.”

Edham, the chief of the Red Forge tribe and the village chief, approached Oto and spoke.

Above Edham's head, a golden exclamation mark (!) floated.
