Three months have passed since Aldis trained.
In the meantime, Cyril is trained daily by Aldis except on days when the school is closed. Basically, to learn the skills needed to get out of the forest alone-the escape technique-that was beyond Cyrill's expectations. Children's play The basic practical skills and exercises they receive at the school can be felt.
"Huh, huh ..."
Cyrill runs through the trees, breaking his breath. Behind it, the pursuers were seen and hidden.
But it's really different from two months ago. It was that the pursuers were not Rona but wild beasts.
A beast with a shiny black crust is the one who moves and pursues the six arthropods with a loud noise. Jaw The nickname is "" because it resembles two swords that have developed but curved inward.
Although it is about 80 centimeters long, the twin swords from which its name is derived have strong cutting power and can be easily cut off by human arms or legs. Although it is a weak class among the beasts nesting in the forest, it is a story compared to other beasts. For Kirill, who had no practical experience, he was still a life-threatening opponent.
Its moving speed is never fast. However, unlike Cyrill, who is slow in the woods with poor footing, this is the home ground for his opponent. Raw soft scaffolds and overgrown vegetation do not slow down the double-sword beast.
"This is the way it is"
――I can catch up.
Cyrill decided to start chanting while running.
Kanuki: "Ku, tsubu, become-"
Cyrill's feet tend to be late because he concentrates on the chant.
Incongruity "Knight's fluctuation, no,-"
The footsteps of the double-sword beast approaching from behind have shortened the distance at once. At that time, whether that sound would touch Cyril's back.
rock"!"
Cyrill fires an attack magic as he turns around.
From the feet of the double sword beast, which is approaching a breath, a piece of rock emerges from the ground. Neither could it respond to the rocks attacking from the blind spots, and the double-sword beast ate the rocks on its soft abdomen.
However, the magic she turned around seemed to have a weak aim, and did not lead to fatal wounds. He was a double-sword beast whose half of his belly was torn and shed its body fluids, but did not seem to give up Cyril's predation.
"Huh, huh, huh ..."
While breathing on the shoulders, Cyril measures his fighting power with the double-sword beast without hesitation.
The distance is short. This distance was dangerous for Kirill, who was not a close combat occupation.
But on the other hand, double-sword beasts are already in trouble. His biggest weapon, the fangs, is alive, but his six legs have already been broken. The abdomen from which body fluids flow indicates that the life is not long, indicating that time is on the side of Cyril.
Cyrill gets lost.
Nao If you continue to interlock this way, the twin sword beast will run out.
But I don't know when it will be. Arthropod-type beasts are often surprisingly tough. There is a danger that other beasts will come in if you wait eternally.
Is it better to leave this place quickly with a stab?
To do so, the magician, Cyrill, needs to recast and cast his attack magic. He is but the distance is short. The chanting itself stimulates the double-sword beast, which can trigger and attack. Until the attack magic is released, can you protect yourself from the double-sword beast that attacks you?
Normally it would be difficult to avoid the sharp attack of the double-sword beast. However, the twin sword beast has lost two legs and has been damaged. Inexperienced Cyrills had no guesswork at how influential it would be.
It seems long and short.
It was the twin sword beast that moved first. He makes a small rustling sound and slowly steps on the ground with his four still healthy feet to start narrowing the distance.
"Penetrating is brave-Wow!"
Attraction When Cyrill begins to cast that it is no longer looking, it attacks the double-sword beast.
Dodging the twin sword beast's fangs, Cyril throws his body to the left. The black body of the double-sword beast passes by in the place where Kirill was just a moment ago.
To keep himself away from the twin sword beasts that flew to the trunk of the tree, Kirill rolled away and gained distance, covering his body with soil and fallen leaves.
Rock "Penetrate is the unwavering contradiction of a brave knight ----!"
After checking enough distance, Cyril moves on to the next attack.
But the same is true of the double-sword beast. He shows a jumping power that he can not imagine, and goes straight to Cyril.
Cyrill's attack magic was the best to understand that the double-sword beast would have broken the trunk of a tree that had disappeared, but that it had no meaning.
"She ----!"
The twin sword beasts, with two shining black tusks open sideways, approaching Cyril to reap the neck.
Millet Kirill has skin that is the whole skin. A cold sensation ran on my back. When I was about to finish my life shortly after knowing the answer, where did I go wrong?
What I heard was a dry sound that cut through the air. Next, the appearance of a double-sword beast that instantly disappears from view, and the sound of something striking the ground.
Cyrill, stiffened, looks down at her feet. Sewing There was a figure of a double-sword beast that was pierced from above by a short sword and sunk to the ground with its momentum.
"A, Aldis ..."
Cyril, who knows the owner of the sword, calls its name. At the same time, he sat down without force.
How many times have you died this? Under the name of combat style, Cyrill was still trained to be a magician to shake the forest beast by himself.
Even though Aldis has refrained from it, he really can't reach out to the very end. The days of being cornered will surely lead to the growth of Cyrill, but at the same time, I also thought that my life would shrink every day.
Aldis, who has approached Cyril, begins to comment on the training.
"I was sorry this time. The decision to switch from fleeing to intercepting on the way is correct, but the timing was a little late. If I was ten seconds earlier, I should have settled down a little more and aimed."
Optimal Solution Aldis training is primarily aimed at escaping from the beast, but it is not always possible to keep running. If he can't escape or decides that a single blow is effective in closing down the opponent's movement, he has the option of fighting at his own discretion.
However, in fact, even the twin sword beast, which is said to be the weakest beast in the forest, can be reached by Cyril.
`` I need to be able to repel as much as a lactor
It's easy to understand how Cyril, who had acquired the knowledge of beasts in school classroom lectures, is how unreasonable the words of Aldis are.
Rocks: "The first shot was good with the choice of", "but the second shot that was farther away might have been better with the rocks than the rocks. Beasts like double-sword beasts had a fog of sleep. If you let it sleep, it can be disabled in a single shot, and unlike rocks, it's worth a try because it doesn't matter if you miss it a bit, and the fog of sleep works well for lactors. Remember it. ''
"But if it doesn't work, can you attack an intact beast?"
"Well. That's why you need to use them properly depending on the situation. You can only learn about that depending on the number of places."
Cyrill had a complicated expression. At the moment, I am literally thinking of dying every time in order to manage the number of places.
Cyrill swallows a sigh that seems to leak.
Aldis doesn't know, but Cyril is still called the top student in the school. He was a natural student and attended classrooms, and had good results on campus regular examinations. In practical skills, it is almost at a glance from the instructors.
But the confidence he had gained at the school was broken shortly after his nose was raised.
Every day she flees to the beast in this forest. Misty Even with a little pride, it was inevitable that I would go somewhere with my physical strength while running.
Lost As usual, Cyril, who was confident as he did today, had Aldis dabbing with a pom pom.
"He has enough physical strength, and magic is at a level that can be used in actual battles. There is no reason to try against monsters. I've never done it. "
"No big deal ..."
The twin sword beasts didn't know, and the school taught Lactor "a dangerous beast that could only compete with skilled mercenaries." Confrontation At least not that the students can be decent.
The place where Lactor appears is strongly nailed to prevent students from going alone unless escorts accompany them. In the past, it seems that school students went to the Caucasus forest without hiring an escort and inconvenienced many people. He was eventually rescued by a mercenary on request, but he had heard from a rumored classmate that he seemed to have spent a considerable amount of money rescuing him.
"Instead of being an escort, I'm just being thrown into the forest alone ..."
Aldis reacts to the murmur spilling out of Cyril's mouth.
"What? What is the escort?"
"No, not really ..."
After telling Aldis what he heard at the school, he couldn't change his mind. Deviation In order to stop wasting things, Cyrill has stopped thinking about the concept of "common sense" that is large in schools and forests.
