by fnovelpiaIt happened in an instant. Agnes flew behind the monster, making it difficult to save her, and Linda collapsed while giving Flora and I time to drink the potion.
If things continue like this, even if you drink the potion, someone else will just buy time to drink it and then collapse.
Anyway, all I had to do from now on was to quickly go to Linda and hand over the potion I had received from Veronica, and what Flora had was to give it to Agnes, but I was keenly aware that it was not that easy.
Naturally, the monster rushed at me as if it wouldn’t give me any chance, and I swung my sword at the monster as if it were hitting a baseball.
At that moment, the snake-like neck snapped. I thought it was a fastball, so I swung it, but it turned out that I felt like I was hit by a ball falling downwards, so I felt like my mind was instantly bleached.
The monster’s head, which had deflected the sword, was pointed straight at Flora.
For a split second, I recognized it, but I resented my body not following suit.
However, in the midst of this, there was someone who moved his body, Veronica, who had told him to take refuge for a while during the fight.
I hope I become strong enough that Veronica doesn’t have to fight. But that wish was blocked by the wall of reality and only made me suffer.
If I had violated her by saying that she would become strong enough to not need help and she had lost her strength, I wonder what would have happened to me and this party at this moment.
In the end, my words turned out to be irresponsible and put her on the battlefield again.
And again.
Suddenly.
The monster’s mouth bit Veronica. Veronica tried to stop Flora from biting her, but was bitten instead.
Flora kicked her ass, but my eyes turned to Veronica.
Veronica’s flame exploded from her mouth once more as her long neck, which seemed to be several meters long, soared into the sky.
Seonghwa eats demon energy and expands his body. As a result, the monster, which was struggling in pain, raised its head upward and at the same time let go of Veronica.
I was thrown higher than Agnes.
Derrr! Deddd!
My neck began to squirm, and now I could hear a deep, pulse-like vibration.
Veronica rolled over behind the monster and soon disappeared down the cliff.
Veronica fell off a cliff! The moment I thought that, four trembling fingers at the edge of the cliff caught my eye.
As soon as I saw it, I couldn’t help but grit my teeth.
It is unknown how high the cliff is below.
“Flora! I’ll deal with the monster, so quickly heal Linda or Agnes and then head to the cliff!”
At this moment, I was the one who could at least face the monster on equal footing.
Actually, I don’t know if they are equal. If that monster ran honestly, it could win, but this wasn’t a sport in the first place.
There were no equal fights or formal fights, and it was truly scary not knowing how it would play out as it was a place where you would do anything to survive and kill your opponent.
“Rise, light!”
It was originally a large sword, but as the aura of light surrounded it, its size increased further.
The weight didn’t increase, but I felt more confident as I got bigger.
The moment it swung with a boom, the lion’s body put the brakes on itself and the snake’s neck jerked backwards.
The moment I clicked my tongue for being needlessly flexible, as soon as I reached the end of my swing, my neck quickly darted in again as if I was being driven into a wedge.
I turned my body half a turn and let the neck hit the floor, then turned half a turn again and swung the sword with rotational force towards the neck as if slashing.
Quang!
Crunch, crunch. I ran hard over the valley with flowing water.
This was because the monster twisted its body to avoid my sword with its neck.
I just couldn’t figure out why it was so agile.
If you’re big, shouldn’t you be reasonably fast? I wanted to complain, but when I thought about it, I realized that that wasn’t the right thing to say, considering that bears are also very big but very fast.
Even though it is suffering from the fire, it does not lose sight of its hostility towards me.
Perhaps this is the last struggle. In the end, I ended up being indebted to Veronica all the time.
Out of guilt, all I could think about was that I wanted to immediately drop everything and say sorry and save her.
But I had to rule out the threat at this moment, and I couldn’t do that because I was the only one here and now who could do that.
I ran, kicking the watery floor and swinging the sword of light towards the monster. The monster opened its reptilian eyes and howled at me.
Clang, Crack, Crack!
I furrowed my brows and moved forward at the howling, which now seemed like a completely unpleasant noise.
Quang, quang! The floor is dug up at will by its painful struggle, covered in blue flames. I repeatedly dodged and parried it, then swung at its neck with a kick.
Wow! The moment you hit it hard, suddenly? I realized that it was starting to get eaten by the sight of the monster writhing in pain.
At first, it was durable, but the more it fought, the more it seemed to have less power to protect the outside of its body. Or maybe the fire has weakened the thick skin that covers the outside.
Anyway, it was a good thing.
So all I could do was move forward.
I knew it instinctively even without looking in the mirror.
As my vision becomes brighter, my eyes are glowing blue.
Hope for light, shine. That was what I could do as a warrior.
Suddenly, my vision cleared through the light that obscured my vision.
I believed that if my driving force was not wanting to burden the person I cared about anymore, I would be able to exert even more strength.
moving forward And swing it.
Light rushed towards the monster engulfed in blue flames.

It was difficult to support one’s body with one hand.
Even more so if you don’t have anything to hold on to properly.
Still, isn’t the reason why I can survive in such a situation because I become desperate because I know that if I fall, I will definitely die?
Isn’t there such a story sometimes? It’s a story about people using superhuman strength to escape danger when an accident occurs.
That also happens in an instant, so for now, you may be able to hold on even if you grit your teeth desperately.
But in the end, it was clear that there would come a time when I would run out of strength and not be able to endure with just my mental strength, even if I didn’t want to.
My trembling right hand supports my body. Wouldn’t it be easier to hold on with both hands? I tried to lift my left arm, but perhaps because it required a lot of strength, my right arm began to tremble violently.
While I was holding on with my right arm, my left arm was hanging down, so I realized that lifting my left arm was not an easy task.
My teeth were ground. My eyes were tightly closed.
After holding on like that for a while, I could hear the ground trembling, perhaps because Kylon was exerting his strength.
I wish I could finish it quickly and come to help. As I was thinking that, the veil I was wearing on my head fell to the floor.
Can not help it. It rolled around hard and there was no way it could have been fixed properly.
As I was losing strength, I felt footsteps coming closer. Agnes’ voice seemed to sound shallow in the background.
It looks like Kylon is still fighting, but he came to save me, but he still cares about me. I was relieved to learn that this was true.
I was hoping that he would pull me up from this cliff quickly.
“Saint?”
“Yes, yes… Well, yo… !”
I desperately answered Linda’s call.
It was a signal for quick rescue. It would be impossible to say more here.
So, for the last time, I held on with all my strength, hoping that he would grab my wrist and pull me up, but although the voice was close, there was no hand holding my arm.
help me… .
I desperately hoped that it would reach my hand. I heard my wrist being grabbed.
The feeling of my arm being held tightly made me feel like my body was relaxing.
I immediately felt like my right shoulder was going to fall off, but I relaxed because I knew without calculating that it would be less painful than falling and dying.
I was slowly lifted up, and at the same time the ground shook violently, Linda’s hand, which had been holding me, fell with a thud.
“… Huh?”
I stretched out my hand, but I could see that everyone had lost their balance and fell because of the vibration.
Linda’s expression caught my eye. Flora couldn’t be seen because she was looking back, and Agnes’ small face flashed by for a moment.
I had a devastated expression on my face, but for a moment, my body remained the same.
*
I finally caught the monster.
What came out of the monster’s body was a blue reinforcing stone. It was implied that only indigo and purple were now left.
I sighed and headed towards the cliff.
I approached where the kids I had sent to rescue Veronica were.
But there were only three people there.
“… What about Veronica?”
Flora answered that question.
“… … Sorry, I guess it was already too late.”
Did you lose strength and fall?
It was a situation I didn’t want to believe, but it could have been so.
Because Veronica didn’t have very strong arms.
However, the feeling of wanting to blame me for not being able to save me quickly grew, and the anger only piled up in my heart.
This is why I don’t want to see Veronica.
But at the same time, there was me running down the mountain to save Veronica.
