Ainz Ooal Gown: Noble Knight.

Chapter 116 Defeat the Eastern Giant

Deep in the eastern part of the Tob Great Forest.

Pandora Actor, no, he should be called "Flyfly" now, stood in a clearing that had been violently carved out.

At his feet lay the corpses of two ogres, both decapitated by a single sword strike.

"This is it." Narberal stood half a step behind him, pointing to the cave at the end of the clearing. "According to Lady Aura's information, the lair of the Eastern Giants is inside."

"Um.

"," Feifei replied briefly and strode towards the cave.

He crouched down, the sunlight from under his full-face helmet sweeping across the rough scratches and scattered bone fragments along the edge of the cave entrance.

A stench, a mixture of rotting flesh and wild animal fat, wafted from the cave, so strong it was almost tangible.

"It stinks." Naberal frowned.

"Ogre." Fei Fei stood up, her tone certain. "These scratches were left by an ogre. An Eastern giant—"

It looks like a variant of a troll.

It's not a rare or valuable monster.

However, it can at least be used to upgrade the team level.

"Let's go." Fei Fei drew the two great black swords from his back. "Be careful of the traps in the cave. Although the ogres are unlikely to be intelligent enough to set up any traps, we can't be careless."

Naberal nodded slightly and drew her sword.

The two walked down the gentle slope.

The cave was much wider than expected, with a ceiling nearly four meters high, allowing even a large ogres to move freely inside.

Occasionally, marks made by rough tools can be seen on the cave walls, and the ground is littered with cleanly gnawed bones, some of which still bear the cracks from being crushed by teeth.

"These bones—" Narberal's gaze swept over the remains, "mostly goblin bones—"

Feifei did not respond.

Heavy footsteps and hoarse growls echoed from the depths of the cave. Several blurry figures emerged from the darkness, drawing ever closer.

It's a cannibal.

Two ogres stood at the end of the slope, holding crude clubs in their hands, their bodies stained with blood, and chunks of meat still hanging from their mouths.

More footsteps were approaching from behind them.

"Enemy!" one of the ogres roared hoarsely, "Ironhide! Enemy!"

Feifei stopped and sighed.

He raised his hand, stopping Naberal from stepping forward to attack.

"I've come to speak to your leader," his voice came from beneath his helmet. "Summon the Eastern Giant."

The two ogres exchanged a glance, clearly not fully understanding the meaning of the sentence.

But the words "Eastern Giants" seemed to trigger some kind of instinct in them; they took a half step back and let out a threatening growl.

"Don't you understand?" Feifei shook her head. "Then repeat it. I want to see the Eastern Giant."

He deliberately pronounced each word slowly, while simultaneously slamming his greatsword into the ground.

This time, the ogres understood what he meant.

They turned and ran deeper into the cave, their clumsy steps making a dull thud on the stone floor.

Before long, even louder footsteps came from the depths.

The leader was an exceptionally large troll.

Standing nearly three meters tall, his muscular body was clad in leather armor made from multiple animal hides, and he held a massive sword in his hand.

It was a size larger than the greatsword in Fei Fei's hand, and a viscous liquid kept seeping from the groove in the center of the blade.

Behind him followed five trolls and about a dozen cannibals.

The eyes of these demi-humans held a mixture of hostility and curiosity, but more so a kind of almost undisguised appetite as they sized up the intruder's body as if they were looking at two pieces of walking meat.

"So it's you, intruder." The leader of the trolls spoke, his voice rough like two rocks rubbing against each other. "The King who rules the lands of the East—'Gu,' you are permitted to state your name!"

Feifei's helmet tilted slightly.

"Gu?" He murmured the name to himself. It really was a simple and straightforward naming method.

The thought only flashed through my mind for a moment.

"Feifei," he replied briefly.

Trolls consider the length of their names to be proof of courage; the longer the name, the less courageous they are.

Gu's expression froze for a moment.

A clear dissatisfaction surfaced on that ugly face, probably because the name was also very short, leaving him with nothing to mock.

"Feifei?" Gu repeated the name, staring at the full-face helmet for a long while before finally letting out a heavy snort. "Fine. Whatever your name is, whatever you want to do here!"

He gripped the greatsword tightly, revealing two rows of uneven, yellow teeth.

Feifei sighed, his tone becoming more forceful, almost commanding.

"Submit to me, and I will spare your lives."

silence.

Gu's face instantly contorted with rage.

"Idiot!" He raised the greatsword, its blade gleaming coldly in the dim light. "How could we possibly be food's minions! You're going to be eaten right here!"

The ogres behind him also became agitated, waving their clubs and various crude weapons, letting out deafening howls.

The roars echoed through the cave, mingling with the nauseating stench, making the whole scene even more chaotic.

Feifei shook her head.

"As expected, this is the result."

He turned his head to look at Nabella behind him. The battle maid stood a few steps away, her face still indifferent, but her hand holding the sword was already in a fighting stance.

"Feifei—Sir, what should we do?" Naberal asked.

"There's nothing to talk about." Fei Fei turned back to Gu. "The only option is to kill them all."

He said this in a flat tone.

But this calm only fueled Gu's anger. He could sense that the man in black armor in front of him truly didn't take him seriously.

"Roarooooo—!"

Gu let out a furious roar, raised his greatsword with both hands, and slashed it down fiercely towards Feifei's head.

The massive sword, nearly three meters long, crashed down with enough force to cleave boulders, and foul-smelling viscous liquid gushed from the groove in the center of the blade.

Feifei did not dodge.

The blade struck his helmet squarely.

"clang!

,

The dull metallic clang was deafening. Gu felt a tremendous force travel back along the sword, making his wrist go numb.

His eyes widened as he saw the black-clad warrior still standing in the same spot, not having moved an inch.

"How is this possible—" Gu took a few steps back, looked down at the sword in his hand, then looked up at the person in front of him. Then he turned around suddenly and slashed at an ogre beside him.
