Anime: Re:Zero - Jobless Reincarnation

Forcing himself to be alert, Naoki Kiritani began to look around the terrain and soon spotted a lone Piranha plant.

After silently calculating the hatred range of the Piranha Plant in his mind, Naoki Kiritani retreated to a safe range, held a stone in his right hand, and began to aim.

The stone in his hand flashed with a blue glow, a sign that the sword skill had been successfully activated.

The whistling sound that broke through the air carried the wind and swept towards the carnivorous plant in the distance.

The Piranha Plant was hit by a stone, roared angrily, and began to attack Naoki Kiritani. Once the monster is attacked by the player, it will have the ability to search for the enemy.

Naoki Kiritani initially expected one Piranha Plant, but it was obvious that there were two Piranha Plants running over.

The more monsters there are, the harder it is to deal with them.

As the saying goes, two fists are no match for four hands. This is exactly the reason.

Within a certain range, the increase in the number of monsters will increase the pressure on players exponentially.

In short, Naoki Kiritani was under pressure.

In fact, it is not difficult to deal with two Piranha Plants.

With his current equipment, it wouldn't be so embarrassing that he couldn't even break the defense.

The mechanism of the Piranha Plant is also extremely simple, with no special attack mechanism, which makes it much less difficult to deal with.

The most important thing to watch out for is the carnivorous plant with the enchanting red fruits. Anyone who doesn't know the information will basically die if they touch it.

The Piranha Plant ran along the mountain path towards Naoki Kiritani.

Naoki Kiritani held the sword tightly in his right hand and took a deep breath. A large amount of oxygen was inhaled into the boy's lungs. His heart beat violently and blood rushed into the whole body along with his heart.

Naoki Kiritani did not rush forward to meet the enemy.

He placed the sword against his waist, still using his familiar sword-drawing method.

But this time he wants to build up his strength.

The violent force began to gather, and the young man condensed the force into the sword body.

The Sword God Style itself is based on the approach of killing with one strike. Although it is impossible for Naoki Kiritani to really kill the opponent by crossing the level, the damage of this strike is definitely considerable.

The azure light flashed again and again, and Naoki Kiritani stepped back with his right foot and stepped forward with his left foot.

When the carnivorous plant rushed within five meters, Naoki Kiritani suddenly rushed forward.

The momentum has been condensed to the extreme, even the right hand holding the sword is trembling slightly, this is caused by the excessive power.

In just a breath, the boy rushed to the front of the carnivorous plant. The huge vines stretched towards Naoki Kiritani, and the mouth in front of its body opened, revealing hideous and sharp teeth.

It didn't matter before, but now it seems extremely awkward.

It's not hard to imagine what would happen to Naoki Kiritani if ​​he were bitten by this thing.

Before it was a game and could be ignored, but now it’s different.

Rushing in front of the Piranha Plant, Naoki Kiritani's speed suddenly increased again. The sword in his hand no longer flashed a blue light, but a pitch-black luster.

The pitch-black slash was drawn out, and in just a moment, the boy's sword had been swung out, and the vines of the carnivorous plant were directly cut in two by the sword.

The sword's momentum continued, the blade flashing a deep black light as it pierced into the bloated trunk of the Piranha Plant. The sharpness of the weapon was beyond the boy's expectations, and with the powerful force, it pierced the opponent's thick wall almost effortlessly.

Green liquid flowed out, and the HP of the Piranha Plant dropped rapidly. The originally green and healthy health bar directly turned into a red area.

But at the same time, the second carnivorous plant behind the one in front of him had arrived in front of him.

Naoki Kiritani gritted his teeth, not caring about anything else at the moment, and directly connected with his sword skills. He ignored the other Piranha Plant, grasped the hilt of the sword with both hands, and swung the sword hard.

Two hits.

Another ferocious slash appeared, this one was obviously not as strong as the first one, but it still failed to take down the opponent.

The vines of the carnivorous plant entangled Naoki Kiritani, and he had to pull back.

He let out a long breath, his right arm trembled slightly, and the blue bar above his head had been consumed by more than half.

Naoki Kiritani did not retreat, but raised his sword again. There were only two small monsters now. He had killed a lot of these monsters during the closed beta period, but he didn't expect that he would have to deal with them for so long now.

Without using the sword-drawing style again, he raised the sword forward, and the Sword God Style's moves flashed through the boy's mind.

Raise the sword and stab.

Faster.

The blue bar was consumed again, but this time it was not just the sword body, Naoki Kiritani himself was wrapped in blue light.

An indescribable power surged through my body again.

Naoki Kiritani was very familiar with that kind of power. That kind of power was exactly the power possessed by the world of Reincarnation: Jobless.

Use magic power to strengthen yourself and increase your basic attributes to a terrifying level in a short period of time.

He had this idea when the game was in closed beta, and tried to use the blue bar to strengthen himself.

Of course, it failed unsurprisingly.

Because the rules of the SAO game are sword skills.

Only when releasing sword skills can all attributes be greatly improved.

But now, he tried again and succeeded.

Naoki Kiritani vaguely guessed what was going on.

It is estimated that the system converts the in-game world into reality, which causes certain rules to change.

I looked at the blue bar above my head and saw that it was decreasing at an alarming rate.

Naoki Kiritani no longer hesitated, and his sword turned into blue light and stabbed the opponent directly.

This is not a sword skill, just an ordinary stab.

But this sword was extremely fast. Only a sound of breaking through the air was heard, and the sword blade pierced into the blood-remaining carnivorous plant. Its huge body twitched and fell to the ground, then turned into a blue light and disappeared.

After killing the carnivorous plant, Naoki Kiritani did not stop. He kicked the carnivorous plant with such great force that the carnivorous plant was kicked three meters away.

The Piranha Plant fell to the ground and struggled to get up. Naoki Kiritani raised his sword and stabbed it out. The muscles in his right hand bulged, and he pressed his center of gravity down and rushed forward.

The dirt flew everywhere, and the three-meter distance was covered in an instant. He stepped hard again with violent force, and the middle of the Piranha Plant's trunk was directly dented. Green juice splashed, and the HP on its head dropped rapidly.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 36 The Beginning

Naoki Kiritani ignored the juice splashing on his body and stabbed directly with the sword in his hand.

A cold light flashed, and the sword pierced through the opponent directly.

But even so, it was still struggling. After all, the HP of the Piranha Plant was still a bit high. Naoki Kiritani exerted a little force with his feet, and the intensity of its struggle was reduced a little.

He stabbed out three times with his sword with an expressionless face, and finally defeated the opponent.

At the same time, a strong feeling of dizziness came over me.

Kiritani Naoki frowned and rubbed his swollen brows. He was a man of strong mental strength, so he didn't faint directly.

He glanced at the blue bar. At this moment, his blue bar was completely emptied, and that violent power also receded like the tide.

[Your level is increased to level 7]

【System prompt: Have you understood???】

【? ? ? 】

[Active Skill: Improve your attributes in all aspects as you inject magic power. The degree of improvement depends on the total amount of magic power injected.]

Naoki Kiritani thought about it and named the skill Berserk.

After resting on the spot for five minutes, a blue light suddenly appeared and enveloped Kiritani Naoki.

Forced transmission.

Naoki Kiritani put on a smile and murmured, "Is it finally starting?"

It was still the familiar square, and players appeared one by one on the wide square.

This is the town of origin.

Naoki Kiritani took advantage of the fact that there were not many people around and quickly looked around for Asuna and Kazuto Kiritani.

As more and more blue lights appeared, a large number of players appeared in the square.

The melodious BGM of the game is transmitted to the player's ears along with a breeze.

It turns out that if there is background music in real life, people's mood will be improved by several levels.

Naoki Kiritani looked around and finally saw a black-haired uncle in a corner.

He stepped forward and grabbed the other person, took a look at his ID, and said with a smile: "You haven't changed, you still use this name."

Kiritani Kazuto was wondering who was holding him back, when he turned around he saw his eldest brother.

He ignored his elder brother's teasing words and said bluntly: "Brother, haven't you noticed anything unusual yet?"

Naoki Kiritani suppressed his smile and thought to himself that he had been transformed from a pile of data into a flesh and blood body.

Seeing Naoki Kiritani's expression, Kazuto Kiritani said, "You must be aware that the logout button has disappeared."

Naoki Kiritani consoled him: "It should be a bug."

Kiritani Kazuto sighed and said, "If it's a bug, this game might face some bad reviews. We have such high expectations for this game."

Naoki Kiritani looked at the boy in front of him. It seemed that Kazuto Kiritani had not yet realized the seriousness of the problem.

After chatting with the boy for a while, he glanced at the huge skeleton holding a sickle standing next to him without saying a word. Naoki Kiriya smiled meaningfully, patted Kazuto Kiriya on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "I'm going to find Asuna, you guys chat."

As the square became more and more crowded, it became more and more difficult for Naoki Kiritani to find people.

However, every time he passed a place, many players would set their sights on him.

He has a handsome face, with almost perfect facial features, a high nose bridge, and a pair of sword-like eyebrows that make him look more heroic. His pair of red-gold eyes are bright and lively. Because he has been practicing swordsmanship for a long time, Naoki Kiritani always has a sharp temperament.

The boy was wearing a coarse linen shirt, which was just a gift for novices. Obviously, everyone wore the same thing, but it looked very different on the boy. He had bright and dazzling short hair and bangs parted in the middle of his forehead, revealing the boy's handsome features. He was an extremely handsome man.

In Japan, people's values ​​are basically determined by their appearance. When faced with such a young boy, even games can make those girls' hearts beat fast. The boy's temperament has a fatal attraction to those girls who have not seen the world.

Many male players even approached and asked Naoki Kiritani to reveal the secret of face-shaping.

Naoki Kiritani had an indifferent expression on his face. He looked around and said calmly, "I'm looking for someone. Please make way."

The girl was attracted by the boy's cold expression and blushed a little, while the male players were whispering beside them. Naoki Kiritani had good ears and could hear most of what the players were talking about.

"What's the point of looking good in the game? In real life, he might just be a fat otaku."

"That's it."

Ha, Naoki Kiritani shook his head and ignored the sour players. He finally found Asuna, who looked confused, in a corner.

She just stood there in a daze.

When he saw Naoki Kiritani, he grabbed the boy as if he had seen a savior.

Asuna said seriously, "Naoki, I noticed that the logout button disappeared."

Naoki Kiritani nodded.

Seeing the boy so calm, Asuna became a little anxious. She whispered, "It's almost seven o'clock now. My mother will definitely scold me when she comes back."

Naoki Kiritani shook his head, lamenting that even Asuna, who had grown up, was still afraid of her mother.

Although Asuna has not yet realized the seriousness of the problem, Naoki Kiritani does not want to discourage Asuna and consoles her: "It's okay, it should be a bug."

But Asuna still had a bitter face.

He led her to Kazuto Kiritani's side, and as more and more players came, the square gradually became noisy.

After all, there are quite a few players who have discovered the abnormality, and many people have found that the logout button has disappeared.

Loud noises began to be heard from various places, and the volume gradually increased. I kept hearing "What the hell is going on?" "Is this enough to log me out?" "Hurry up and let me log out!"

After a while, the noise from the crowd began to take on an anxious tone, and angry voices such as "Stop joking!" and "GM, get out here!" could be heard.

Suddenly someone's voice drowned out the noisy sounds.

"Ah... look up there!"

Naoki Kiritani looked up subconsciously and saw a strange sight.
