Survivor Saijaku no Ore wa Hazure skill “Faker” de Tenshina Kanojo to S rank wo Mezasu - CH 63
Unfortunately, I don’t have the confidence to defeat the orc, which seems like a mass of fat, with one shot left of [Ice Javelin].
Anyway, I have no choice but to stall for time by bluffing and running.
The orc tried to charge at me with a roar. In response, I retreated backward and kept my distance.
I used my everything to force the enemy’s attention to my knife so that it wouldn’t realize that I was just running away, but this couldn’t last forever.
In this situation, if only the orc were to run out of patience and come charging, I wouldn’t be able to put up a fight.
I retreated a few steps while feeling the pressure coming from the orc. It was then that the distance I’d been keeping with the orc up to that point was broken.
The orc came rushing at me by throwing caution to the wind.
“Damn it! [Ice Javelin]”
Activating my last skill, I damaged the orc and stopped its charge.
With this, I truly used up all my moves. From here on, running was my only option left to stall for time.
While pretending to be calm, I retreated a few more steps to keep my distance without looking away from the orc.
Although the orc was bleeding due to [Ice javelin], it didn’t seem like a fatal wound. And it was about to come at me again.
My weapons were just two survival knives held in my hands. And the current me couldn’t even think how I would be able to give that giant a fatal injury.
Should I draw its attention and run? … … The moment I thought that –
“I will take over! [Wind Cutter]”
The original wind blade from Aoi severely wounded the orc.
“Thank you, Rin-kun. You are a great help. I am okay now, so leave it to me.”
I-I barely made it……
Aoi finished defeating another orc at the last minute and came rushing to help me.
“You’re barely on time, Aoi. I don’t even have a single shot left. I was seriously thinking about turning my back and running away.”
“Fufuu, Rin-kun is honest. Even so, thank you for coming along with me. This might have been a difficult fight if I were alone.”
“I don’t think so, though. Anyway, finish that guy first.”
“Understood. Burn to ashes [Explosion]”
Engulfed by the explosion, the orc was caught by flames and was cremated as it was.
“As amazing as always.”
“No, it is thanks to Rin-kun.”
I am glad that this has ended safely.
“Iyaa~ you saved us, Wakaba-san. I am truly grateful. If only I was in my right physical condition, there wouldn’t be that many monsters left.”
“I’d like to thank you as well. Wakaba-san, thank you so much for this time. You see, we rose to F-rank yesterday. But, due to a mistake in the setting, four F-rank monsters ended up coming out. There is no way I would have lost if it was just one monster.”
Aahh, did you make a mistake in the terminal setting just because you rose to F-rank? Aren’t you being too careless?
“We are now F-rank, and this is also a good opportunity. Say Wakaba-san, why don’t you join our party too?”
“Ooh~ this is a great idea! This time, we are going to help Wakaba-san~”
“No, thank you. I have Rin-kun here with me.”
“Rin-kun?”
“Yes, Rin-kun.”
“By some chance, you mean this guy? This Bocchi, the incompetent?”
“This guy was no big deal at all. He was just running away from an orc, right?”
No, although I might have been running away from the orc, haven’t I defeated a hobgoblin before that? Did both of you not see it?
“Are your eyes just for decorations? Both of you still haven’t seemed to realize that you are saved thanks to Rin-kun. Rin-kun defeated two E-rank monsters just a short while ago. In the first place, F-rank monsters can’t even serve as his proper opponents. He is incomparable to you guys, who have to escape for life from just four F-rank monsters!”
Ah~ This is… She is getting angry again. Or rather, ‘completely snapped’ would be the right term.
Whether it is Atashiro or Honda, I wonder how they can easily enrage Aoi, who is usually like an angel, to this extent?
