“Oh,………… shit……. I haven’t heard about this……, but…….”

I can hear Huey’s voice.

It’s weak, and you can’t feel the vigor of the time we met earlier.

The voice, which resembles resignation, is taut and conveys a sense of frustration.

“Hey, are you okay!?”

Nina runs over to Huey and crouches down to look into his face.

Huey, bleeding from his arm, leans against a tree and looks up with vacant eyes, breathless. Then he raises the corner of his mouth slightly.

“Ha! …… commoner and …… sheltered girl, you’re here ……. I don’t want to be seen …… but, you’ve seen ……. You’re …… here for a laugh!”

Huey looks at me with vacant eyes.

The wound is deep. Is it the same monster as the supervisor student before? There are two lacerations…… on the arm that look like they were bitten by a bite. It is quite a large monster.

“I’m not going to be able to laugh at a dying person. It’s just that for a guy who talked so much, Huey.”

At my words, Huey manages to smile.

“…… You’re so sweet. …… Gosh! ……–oh …… you guys had better get the hell out of there. Now …… behind that ……”

Huey slowly points to the shade of the grass.

A thud, thud, thud, and the sound of stomping on the ground can be heard.

From the direction that Huey pointed, something is approaching.

“Haha, there’s …… out there. …… Listen, you’re here because you saw ……, right? Even our …… director student …… look like that. …… You guys can’t do anything about it, not even ……. So get your tail between your legs and run away …….”

“Thanks for the advice, but I wouldn’t leave you here dying.”

“Don’t pretend to be cool……! It’s coming…..”

The head emerges from the trees.

Golden hair that grows back. The head of a lion. A large mouth with fangs peeking out of its red-glowing eyes.

With a thud, the body comes into view. The hairy body. A snake’s head wriggles from the tail attached to the end of it. Sharp claws and fangs. At a quick glance, its body length easily exceeds five meters.

It’s a pretty big monster.

“–Chimera ……!”

Nina says, aghast.

“It’s not the kind of monster that lives in a place like this.”

“Chimera is a B-class monster that is difficult to defeat, I believe ………… ……! It’s no wonder this is so hard to get your teeth into, even if you’re a raw director……!”

“Yeah, …… is a bit too strong an opponent for a student to fight against.”

“So, but why is the chimera ……? This forest is managed by the institute and there are no stray monsters in it……”

It is true that Nina is right about the chimera being a B-class monster. But I’ve never seen a chimera this large before. It’s hard to imagine it growing so well in a forest with so few monsters.

Did it wander in from somewhere? …… Even so, there is no way that such a huge body has not been seen by anyone. This should be done as soon as possible. It’s a rare thing for a B-grade to be in the vicinity of the capital.

I’m not going to be able to say that this guy’s presence is completely irregular.

I’m not sure how much of a surprise they would release a chimera, even though it was just an exercise. In fact, the casualties were on the supervising students’ side. I don’t think the academy would go out of its way to disrupt the exercise.

The other thing that’s interesting about the chimera is that it’s ………… quite exciting.

The eyes are red. It’s rare for a chimera to look this deadly. It’s insane. I’m not sure if it’s witchcraft or medicine–.

A moment.

The chimera moves its huge body as nimbly as a feather. In an instant, the chimera leaps into the space between us with ease and leaps past me to the front of Nina.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]

And then it swings its huge paws and swings its claws down at Nina.

“Eh —-“

Nina finally noticed where the chimera’s shadow fell on Nina, and just stunned, unable to move, just look at the chimera’s huge body.

“Gluaaaaaah！！！”

“Damn……!”

The swinging claw smashes the tree behind it in half with a violent sound.

Its destructive power is truly astounding. The tree, completely gutted of its trunk, makes a loud cracking sound and falls to the left.

But Nina is no longer there.

I hold Nina in my right arm, grab Huey with my left hand, and instantly move around behind the chimera.

My body goes numb with a bang, leaving a scorching trail behind my feet.

“…… Ouch! …… I’m an injured man! …… Over here!”

“It’s better than being ripped in half by a nail.”

“Surprised……”

Nina gulps and swallows her spit when I hold her by her side.

“That was a close one…… If I’d be in there, just like that tree…….”

“Haha, you okay? Did I hurt you somewhere because I couldn’t afford to adjust your grip?”

“Uh, no, I’m fine. ……! You saved me again.”

“Don’t worry about it. Anyway……”

That move of it. It was behind me in position and aimed at Nina ……?

It would have been impossible to aim at Nina from that position. Did it react to something in Nina……? Genie…… not without the possibility of ……. The movement is strange.

And–as I thought–something is going on. It could be a mad magic or a potion or …… either way, it can’t be in the wild. I’m sure it would normally be class B, but this guy’s threat level is pretty close to class A. It’s no wonder the supervisor was dying.

I’m sure I’ll be able to find a few …… Clarice or thereabouts that can manage to fight this class of chimera with a decent degree of success. But I’m not sure there’s anyone who can stand up to this crazed chimera.

I lightly stretch and take a step forward.

“Hey ……, what do you think you’re doing ……. You can’t do anything about ……! The director’s students are also getting hit by ……!”

“So?”

“Haha …… hey hey …… that’s why commoners are ……! I told you to run. We can’t …… it with us. We can’t …… against a freshman who can fight.”

“Yes, that’s right, Noah! Let’s wait for Mr. Hollow to come back! As expected, B-class monsters are too different! It’s been working for me so far……”

And Nina also looks at me with slightly moist eyes, clenching her fists a little shakily.

“If we don’t do it, there’s a chance that the rest of the party will be killed. I don’t care if they are injured or killed by the goblins, but it’s a pity that they have to deal with this irregularity. I’ll get rid of the vermin.”

“Yes, but …………”

“You can’t get away with it if it’s just me and Nina, but Huey’s wounds can’t withstand my magic. I’m sure you’ll be able to find a way to make it work. We’re going to have to do it with this guy anyway.”

“But…………”

“Well, don’t worry.”

“Huh?”

I chuckle lightly and put my hand on Nina’s head with a plop.

Nina trembles a little and looks up at me with a troubled expression.

“I’m the strongest. You’ll see that you’re on a big boat, as usual.”

“Noah……”

“Haha…… you just want to dress it up when you get here…….”

Huey painfully suppresses the wound and breathlessly squeezes out the words.

“I don’t want …… to do any of this. Leave me and go …… quickly. I can …… wipe your own ass …… by yourself.”

“With that wound? Haha, you’re a good joker.”

“You ……! Ah……!”

Huey painfully suppresses the wound.

“Oh yeah, just let it happen. Don’t put it on me because you can’t compete with it. You don’t want to die here either, do you? Huey.”

Huey sighed emphatically as if he had given up on my unbreakable attitude.

“…… Damn it …… I don’t know what’s going to happen ……. There will only be three …… graves here …….”

“There is only one grave to stand on.”

I crunch my fist.

“Well, let’s go slay some monsters for the first time in a while, shall we?”[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
