Isekai ni Kita Boku wa Kiyoubinbode Subaya-sa Tayorina Tabi o Suru Chapter 49

Chapter 49

The fight had begun . The adventurers’ offensive attacks seemed to be going rather smoothly . I could not help but be impressed at how they fought while still staying mostly out of danger . They would avoid overly risky moves and took advantage of their numbers to attack from all sides . The wyvern’s energy was easily being drained, just as the number of wounds on it began to grow .

The first part that they attacked were its wings . They were likely trying to cut the membrane there to prevent it from flying away . One adventurer who carried a great shield, acted as a tank in order to parry the oncoming attacks . While the wyvern’s attacks were wild, it also stood firm and would not break its stance . But there were still gaps in its defense . And those did not escape the eyes of the adventurers, and they boldly pushed it back . Once the wyvern had regained its balance again, they would quickly back away and allow the shield-bearer to slam it in the face again to draw attention .

A lot of this strategy seemed straight out of a modern video game . Though, it seemed that there wasn’t a healer about . Perhaps they would use potions? And while there was a shield-bearer, it wasn’t as if he was absorbing all of the attacks . I had seen him drink from small vials and toss them aside several times right after receiving an attack .

You could make especially high-quality potions from good herbs . Herb gathering happened to be my specialty . And I suspected that the potions they were using were of high-quality . As it did not look like any of them had any serious injuries .

Even the occasional damage that was inflicted on them was light . The wyvern was wild and reckless, but that wasn’t doing it any favors . Eventually, the wings were so damaged that it would not be able to fly . There was something very grim about watching the frayed membrane toss in the wind every time its wings would beat, but it was a clear sign of their effectiveness for the adventurers .

The next part that they targeted was the tail . The tail that swung through the air was able to deal heavy blows just like a mace . You would probably be knocked unconscious as soon as it hit you .

The shield-bearer now blocked a blow of the tail, which allowed one of the swordsmen just enough time to come in and strike at it . But the scales were a tough shield as well . Try as they might, they were unable to sever the tail completely, and time continued to go by .

Then all of a sudden, the wyvern moved to take in a deep breath . It was a breath attack . I crouched even lower over the ground until I was practically lying down . The adventurers seemed to have anticipated this move and decided on how they would react in advance, because they quickly moved behind the shield-bearer . The shield-bearer drove the spike that protruded from the bottom of the shield into the ground, preparing their defense .

“GGGGGGgggRRAAAAAAAaAAA!!!”

An overwhelming roar accompanied the wind of its breath . It was a massive discharge of magical energy that shredded nearby trees and plants and blew them away . There was no doubt that they would have died if they had been hit directly…

I had to squint very hard to avoid getting sand in my eyes from the hurricane that was caused . But by the looks of them, the adventurers seemed to be holding up . I could vaguely see them holding the shield-bearer from behind .

Eventually, the magical discharge stopped . There was so much dust in the air, that it was difficult to see . The shield-bearer was hidden behind his shield, but it seemed like he wasn’t moving . What happened? Wasn’t this their chance?

“Hey, hey!”

The wyverns torn wings beat in the air . It wasn’t an attempt to fly, but a way of pushing away the clouds of dust . Once the dust was gone, I was able to see what had happened .

The shield-bearer’s shield had not fulfilled its purpose . Unable to withstand the breath attack, there was now a gaping hole in the center . Was the wyvern’s attack just that powerful?

No, judging by that hole, I feel like the wyvern had deliberately concentrated its attack into one small point . It wasn’t a blast that covered a wide area, it was a high-density blast . But even so, the waves of magic had affected their surroundings and brought about a dust storm . That was probably why I had thought it was your typical breath attack .

I could hear the adventurers become frantic . What happened? They shake the shield-wielder . I could see it clearly now, there was a hole in his armor as well, and a large river of blood was running out of it . His face was completely pale . It’s…too late…

“Hey, Danny! Damn it, the blood won’t stop!”

“Carry him and fall back! Hurry! Use the potions!”

The archer orders . And the man with the greatsword picks up the shield-bearer and moves away . Several others also fell back, potions in their hands . But could the rest handle it with these numbers…?

But there was no one to answer that question for me, and now that the wyvern had recovered after using such a taxing move, it roared once again, and the fight continued .

“Damn! We have to kill it!”

The swordsman who had dealt the first blow roars in return . He picks up one of the swords that the other adventurers dropped and challenges the monster . But it seemed that it was only a matter of time before he crumbled . He was dodging the wyverns attacks by a hair’s breadth as he tried to strike at its legs . It did not look very effective . If he was somehow able to succeed, that would greatly hamper the wyverns ability to move . But that was something they could do because of the shield-bearer . Having to attack and guard at the same time was insane . The other remaining adventurers were also putting in shallow cuts with their swords, but the wyvern would not buckle . This was starting to look very…bad?

“Damn-damn-damn it!! All of you! Run!! We won’t last any longer!!”

The adventurer who carried two swords shouts . The man with the greatsword was running as he carried the wounded shield-bearer . It looked like the flow of blood had at least stopped . But the wyvern was not in a forgiving mood . It quickly found the prey that it had injured . Every other adventurer that surrounded it seemed to suddenly become invisible as it began to madly run towards them . Oh, this was very bad . There was no point in your wounds being closed if you were going to be eaten by a wyvern . What to do? I could try using “Legs of the Forest Wolf’ to help them…

“DANYYYY!!!!”

The voice startles me . Did the need to hide my skill outweigh a person’s life? Sure, they should have had more than one shield-bearer, and where the hell was their healer? And this would be difficult to explain later on .

But, I had no choice really . If someone was dying in front of me, I had to help them .

“AARRGGGHAAA!!”

Silver and emerald wind rushes around my feet as I fly in the air . I pull out my steel swords as I descend down over the wyvern’s head . My voice is raised like a battle cry just as I plunge the swords down into the wyvern . They do not pierce through, but it was enough to distract it .

“GGGGURAAAGAGHHH!!!”

I jumped again and landed right in front of it . In other words, I was now between it and the adventurers .

“What…how? You were…just…?”

“Nevermind that . Run! I won’t last long here either!”

That seemed to shake them out of being stunned, and they quickly moved away .

“You, are you trying to die!?”

“Of course not! I’m out of here as soon as you are!”

“Alright, see you in Spiris then!!”

I quickly look over my shoulder and nod .

“Yeah, catch you later!”

“You better make it! I’m Rex! And you!?”

“It’s Asagi! Now get out of here!!”

This time they run without answering me . But I didn’t have time to confirm it anyway, as I concentrated on the wyvern . It seemed to be a little confused, as I had appeared out of nowhere . But it’s suspicion did not change the fact that I was its prey . We glare at each other . My grip hardens around my swords .

“Let’s go!!”

“GGGggGRRAAAAAA!!!!!”
