Chapter 76: VR Dungeon (4)
The Twin-Head Orc's roar thundered through the corridor, rattling stone and shaking the air itself. Both heads bared jagged tusks, saliva dripping onto the floor with sickening splats. Its axe scraped against the wall, sending sparks flying, while the club dragged behind it, gouging the ground.
The oppressive aura it exuded pressed down on us like a physical weight. Even though this was VR, my instincts screamed real danger. My hands trembled around my sword hilt, but I forced them still.
We weren't facing a D-rank beast. This thing was practically B-rank in strength.
Maria whispered, her voice tight. "This is… impossible."
Aurelia's expression hardened, her rapier blazing faintly with flame. "Nothing is impossible. We only lose if we surrender."
Sakura's violet eyes locked on me. Calm. Expectant.
And Sam… Sam was pale, clutching his staff tightly, lips moving in silent prayer.
All eyes turned to me.
Leader. Strategist. Commander.
