Chapter 18 - Emmisary Of Church (conclusion)
The knight class did not have an inbuilt mana stat system unlike warlock and wizard hence it was best to sell the skill as it would fetch a great amount .... especially right now when skills were the most important part of the adventurer\'s strength and a complete deficiency of good skills in the market.
Rudra waited in the cave for 2 hours resting untill his stamina was back to full , he was not an idiot to start a fight in anything but his peak condition....The person in his previous life failed to get past the alpha stage soo the next room remained unknown to him. Soo Rudra was essentially going in blind having no clue what to expect.... He did however have 3 darkness dispell spells saved and his semi legendary Lich\'s Ring with him giving him confidence.
Rudra did not realize this yet, he felt everything he did was because of his reincarnation knowledge ..... but that was\'nt the case actually .... his skills honed over 20 years of playing the game had given him great reflexes and a subconscious anticipation of how to fight, a warrior been through countless dungeon runs and facing players, monsters and even NPC\'s had an edge to his moves only experience could give.
His reincarnation knowledge + His skills + His drive to be the best and hence his step by step plan to rise to the top was all playing a part in making him stronger.
As he stepped through the gate ... what greeted him sent chills down his spine ... there were young girls of five races tied to a log forming a pentagon
The pentagon was drawn in blood , it seemed like a demonic ritual ... In the centre of the pentagon sat a man?... or was he a dark warewolf? it was hard to determine .... if one were to accurately say he was a half man half beast ... he was adding herbs and chanting incantations as the ritual was progressing.
An elf , an orc , a human , a demonkin , a mermaid the members of the five great tribes were gagged and bound ... their eyes widened as they saw Rudra bust through the door .... Some cried some desperately shouted through their gagged cloth to make muffled noises.
Well it was a natural reaction soo noone could blame them but that alerted the man in the centre... Who Rudra assumed was the Merchant .... But why would a cult worshipper poison a village of innocent people?
Nothing added up .... The environment ... the motive ... it all seemed absurd .... But there was no time to ponder .... The merchant looked at him with bloodshot eyes and picked up a beheading blade that was beside him and charged at Rudra
Rudra parried the first strike with his silver sword but his hands felt numb from the impact
Just how strong was that guy?
[ Blood merchant ] (mutant creature) ( Lv 28) ( Boss Rank ) :Think twice before engaging him ... equipped with a high quality slaughterer blade.
Whoa that guy was no joke... Rudra had absolutely no chance of fighting him one on one ... with each subsequent clash his hands felt heavier and his movements slowed down untill after the seventh clash that his sword snapped in two.
Shit! Im toast thought Rudra as the attack landed on him square and he was sent flying
-800 Critical hit
With one hit His enemy took 4/5th of his total HP
Darkness bind!
Summon knight Durahal !
He quickly bound him as well as summoned Durahal , Durahal was lv30 he was a match for this guy ... and thankfully his sword did damage the enemy this time.

His windslash did a puny damage of 200 yet he was satisfied as he was doing something atleast ... He drunk a health potion and restored 400 Hp
Durahal was engaging in a fierce combat and was having a very slight advantage however the situation changed fast
The Merchant executed the Berserk skill and his attack power experienced a mad increase... Durahal was started being pushed back!
Nonononono Durahal is my only chance at clearing this quest ... he cant recieve soo much damage... With that he decided to Enter the fray
He with his windcutter sword engaged in close combat against the Merchant... Berserk skill lasted for 2 minutes hence he needed to make sure that Durahal was safe for that time...After the 2 minutes ended the enemy would be in a weakened state and Durahal would steamroll him .
The problem was Rudra was no match for the Merchant....He was not even strong enough to parry his attacks... With each clash he took damage from brunt force alone

Finally after what seemed hours, Durahal was at 30% Hp when the Berserk of the Merchant ended and he was heavily debuffed
BOOYAH!

Durahal steamrolled him thereforward , making quick work of the Merchant... when the Merchant had less than 5% Hp left he frantically ran towards the bound girls trying to harm them
Nonono ull not do that

Rudra stopped the Merchand and stabbed his heart using windcutter
The Merchant looked at him with his bloodshot eyes and before dying said
" He will come back....." .
