Chapter-59: hunting down the level 5 wild boar
Ratika has an idea in her mind to solve this matter. But this would be quite dangerous as she has to stand in the line of direct charge of the wild boar. If there is even a simple mistake then it is no different than death.
Technically she can perform this with the help of calculations of her other personalities. Still she cannot show her true capabilities directly in order to hide things in clumsiness in front of others and the protagonist. At the same time, she cannot get injured or invite others to help her.
So she has to perform one man show here. After putting on a frightened expression Ratika finally took few deep breaths and then walked in to the room after telling his group of people.
"Everyone, I will fight the wild boar but I cannot always escape. So collect few stones and through it at the boar when I wanted to escape. At that time I will send out a whistle and you through a stone at the boar before hiding.
This way I might have a chance to kill it. I know you don't want to get involved. But think about it. If I cannot kill it then you all will stay here to die. If the stairs leading to the next floor is behind that fork end then you will all die here.
There is no food and water. This is fifth floor that would take you 5 days of time to explore. Can you stay that long here without food and water? Also you know that if you did not step on the stairs leading the next floor before the given time then you will definitely die in this dungeon.
So you better think about it and cooperate." Ratika said and her eyes glanced at Robert and Aisha and said. "Also, don't let others meddle in the middle of the fight so that it would not kill me. If I die then you have to go and fight with that thing."
With Ratika's warning the faces of people turned solemn and they decided to do as Ratika told them to do. They collected the stones and ready to support Ratika. Ratika quickly got into the room.
She did not immediately went to provoke the wild boar but took out the treasure hunting compass hiding carefully with her body as cover. She checked and there is a treasure in this room.
The treasure is actually a treasure room not a simple treasure. This was originally found by the protagonist Robert. At that time she was fighting the wild boar and it charged into the wall to open up this treasure room.
Ratika doesn't want others to find this place. She just wants to use other places to fight and hide this treasure room. For that she carefully hid the room location when fighting. So she checked the place in advance and marked it in her mind.
Immediately after that she moved towards the other side and the wild boar was naturally attracted. Ratika held her steal spear carefully in her hands. Originally she wanted to let the wild boar charge at her and then place the steal spear in a horizontal position to skewer the big pig.
But this can only be done in surprise attack situation. If not she would be rammed and killed. Or the spear would be in wrong alignment and only leave a small injury on the wild boar without causing any real damage.
Finally she cannot show her power right now. So when the wild boar charged Ratika started to practice her dodging by jumping around from one place to the next without stopping. The wild boar naturally charged at her more and more.
When she was unable to dodge she would whistle and those men would throw some stones at the wild boar before hiding. Also she purposefully avoided a specific place intentionally. But she covered it up quite well.
After running around for nearly 20 minutes she finally took the chance to stand at one spot that she felt that the wall here is quite solid and stopped. The wild boar was charging straight at her and it is perfect.
This time when the wild boar came to her, she did not dodge like others expected instead she adjusted the metal spear in her hand at an angle perfect for it to plunge into the face of the charging boar. The angle is towards it eye instead of its nose or its mouth.
The angle was not set till the last moment and the base of the spear is based at the solid wall behind. With the inertia of the charging bore it would be poked directly by itself killing itself without letting Ratika perform more monkey tricks.
Ratika naturally dodged to the side leaving the spear that plunged into the head of the wild boar at this moment. This was the right opportunity and an accidental opportunity. Ratika looked at the wild boar and smiled softly.
The blood bar of the wild boar suffered a critical hit and only a small part of it left. Ratika pulled out a simple dagger from her waist and plunged it onto the other eyes of the wild boar that is struggling at its last breath.
This way the wild boar is finally dead. Ratika slumped down with exhaustion. At least that is what she showed them at this moment. Ratika panted heavily with her breathing ragged. But she smiled happily.
Others that saw the scene were stunned because they thought that Ratika would die this time. But the wild boar died this time instead of Ratika. Robert has some doubts but there is no proof. Ratika that completed killing the wild boar did not rest for long.
She slowly came to the treasure chest wanting to check it. This is still a wooden treasure chest but the benefits inside should be stronger. Ratika took her time to pull out her spear out of the body of the big wild boar. The spear is slightly bent because of the heavy work load.
