I Became the Demon King of Lust

I carefully observed the Blue Ogre and I could see that there was even this snot bubble that was coming out of its nose.

It seemed like it was in a deep sleep and no noise would wake it up.

But even then, I still didn't approach the Blue Ogre.

I wanted to observe the Blue Ogre first to see if there was anything that I could use against it. At the same time, I also wanted to observe the room around me to see if there was anything here that I could use.

However, the room didn't seem to have a single thing in it.

It seemed that the best way to do this was to take down the Blue Ogre before it woke up…That meant using one attack with unparalleled power to take it down right away.

Or else it would be messy if I had to fight the Blue Ogre head on.

However, it wasn't as if I could waste too much time thinking about this.

The rounds only lasted ten minutes each and I had already spent a fourth of my time observing this room. If I wasted any more time, I would be the one that suffered in the end.

It seemed that this was one of those cases where it was better to act instead of thinking too much.

Luckily for me, I had something that gave me the confidence to take down this Blue Ogre in one move.

I looked down at the sword that I was holding in my hand and revealed a confident look.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Right, if it wasn't for this sword and armour that I received as a reward for placing first in the first round, I really wouldn't have been confident in taking down this Blue Ogre. But with these incredible items in my possession, I was feeling confident enough to take it down.

Taking a deep breath, I calmed my mind before locking my eyes on the Blue Ogre.

If I wanted to take it down in a single blow, I would have to make the perfect strike in just the right spot to kill it in one shot.

So even if it took a bit more of my time, I wanted to make sure that everything was perfect.

I took the time to move closer, as close as I can without waking the Blue Ogre up.

When I was close enough, I looked carefully at the Blue Ogre to see which part of it would be the best to attack. In the end, I settled on the neck since that was always the best way to attack.

There was nothing that could survive after its head was cut off.

No, there were things that could survive after their heads were cut off, but I wouldn't ever want to meet those things.

After making sure that everything was prepared, I took my stance and brought my sword up.

Taking a deep breath, I said in a soft voice, "A lot faster and stronger."

I could feel the power filling my body when I said this. It was a kind of power that was far beyond anything that I had ever felt before.

With this power, I was certain that I would be able to take down this Blue Ogre in one shot.

So once more, taking a deep breath, I prepared myself.

Then with a single step, I found that I was flying forward towards the Blue Ogre. The speed at which I charged forward was almost too fast for me to handle, but I was able to keep up in the end.

With one single swing, the sword came forward to cut the Blue Ogre's neck.

To my surprise, I found that there was no resistance at all from the Blue Ogre.

It was as if I had a hot knife that was cutting through butter instead of a sword cutting through thick Blue Ogre hide.

When it was over, I saw that there was something that was spinning through the air.

Then when I came to a stop, I looked at it to see that it was the head of the Blue Ogre.

The body collapsed behind me with a large 'thud' and a splashing sound.

The moment that I heard that splash, I quickly moved out of the way.

As expected, there was a spray of blood that came out from the Blue Ogre's body hitting the ground. If I had dodged a bit late, then the blood might have splashed onto me.

Looking at the Blue Ogre's head and body, I couldn't help revealing an amazed look before looking down at the sword in my hand.

I had already known that this was a very sharp sword, but I never thought that it was so sharp that it was even able to cut through a Blue Ogre this easily.

But without it, it might not have been as easy for me to take down this Blue Ogre, so I was grateful for this sword.

That didn't stop the painful feeling from filling my body though.

This painful sensation was the backlash of the ability that I just used.

It was the muscle ache that came with releasing my limits.

Of course, it wasn't as bad as ripping apart my muscles by fully releasing my limits, but my muscles would be sore for a bit without being healed. I would need healing to reach my peak form quickly, which was a problem since there were still the next forty six rounds to deal with.

It seemed like the guide was right, this really was impossible if this was the rate that the difficulty of this trial increased at.

What was waiting for me should be an A Ranked Monster, right?

Well, let's see how this goes…

But of course, I wouldn't head into the next round right away.

Before that happened, I would use the break time to heal up.

Fifteen minutes wasn't a lot, but it was better than nothing.
