Chapter 32 . 1 : First Experience + Final Trump Card = Taste of Soil

I chased after Shnji who was running toward the boss at full speed . Naturally, Shinji understood my intentions .

If I were to run at my full speed, I’d arrive in front of the Jiisha first due to the fact that Shinji had no speed increasing skill . In addition, as long as that happened, due to me gathering all the hate of the boss, we are guaranteed to fail . The key to this strategy is timing . Thus, I’m always behind Shinji, waiting for that timing to come .

The Jiisha isn’t moving from its place . It might be planning to ambush us during our run . In the end, I’m forced to take a stance to intercept any ambushes .

Then, Shinji entered the boss range―― Nay, the moment that guy entered Shinji’s range, our operation commenced .

「――HIGH ALERT! 」

The hate of the Jiisha completely switched over from me to Shinji upon hearing his loud voice .

「DEFENSE SHIELD! 」

While running non-stop, Shinji invoked his defensive arts .  Firmly holding onto his shield with both hands, he prepared for the paw attack that seemed strong enough to crush a giant tree .

「GUUUUUUUUUUORAAAAAAA! 」

He managed to parry it!

But, the Jiisha’s attacks won’t stop with just that . Using the residual force caused by his paw attack, the Jiisha executed another attack with his tail .

「UOOOOOOOOO! 」

But, Shinji also stopped that attack from the front . Along with a creaking sound from the now deformed shield far away from its original form, Shinji managed to stop two consecutive attacks without even flinching away from his place .

「It seems this is all I can do . I’ll leave the rest to you!」

「Yeah, leave it to me! 」

At that moment, I jumped over Shinji who was falling onto the ground and dove right into the Jiisha’s bosom at full speed .

「GAAAOOO!」

The Jiisha seemingly hated the fact that I was in its bosom, and did a sweep with his other paw to brush me off to the side .

「AS IF THAT KIND OF ATTACK WOULD WORK ON ME!」

Dodging the paw wasn’t that hard . Though it’ll be a different matter altogether if that paw attack had came along with a whip-like tail attack . The only difficult thing right now is my own posture .

「Don’t worry, since you seem to be lonely, I definitely won’t leave your side!」

I never expected that the first one to whom I would use those words would be this monster . Come to think of it, my father has said before, that the feeling of meeting a formidable opponent that you approve is closer to the feeling of meeting someone you love . Though I used to think that there was something wrong with his brain at that time, the me right now can under—- NOOOOOOOOOO, I DEFINITELY WON’T ACCEPT THIS! Yeah, those words aren’t for this monster . That was close, seriously . What was I even thinking?

「GUU……GAAAAAAA」

It’s as if this guy was opening his mouth to express his greed in worldly materials . Here, eat this present from me for now . It’s your beloved lead bullets! Fumu, should I say “Safe” for this situation?

「GYAAAAAA！」

The Jiisha who had eaten plenty of bullets raised an agonizing wail again .

Blame on your stupid brain . Well it’ll be check mate for me if it has the ability to learn, especially with that large build . Well then, here I come, your Reaper! It seems it’ll become real red soon .

But, gradually, chances began to appear . Maybe it’s because the Jiisha switched strategy from trying to mow me down to swinging down his giganting paw right from above my head . I was saved by that fact as the mowing down attack is harder to dodge .

After dodging that huge paw, the way to the Jiisha’s face became open in front of me amidst a cloud of dust .

「――Oops! 」

While running toward the Jiisha’s face by using his forelimb as my scaffolding, I drew the knife on my hips and thrusted it right into the right eyeball of the Jiisha .

「GYAAAAAA！?」

I see, though attacking from mid range is useless, when in close range, it is effective . Jumping down from my rough scaffolding, I then sent a parting gift in the form of a hail of bullets into the Jiisha;s mouth who was showing its beautiful set of carnivorous teeth . [TL : Opening his mouth]

Moreover, when I did that, it showed a pained reaction which was obviously different from the ones it had shown so far . His HP bar was also below 25%, in short, the red area . To make the matter worse, this guy has also lost half of his field of vision . I decided to dispatch him with my last trump card .

Using the moment when his attention is distracted from me due to overwhelming pain, I climbed the Jiisha again, till I was right in front of its nose .

――EAT THIS!

Grasping the long sword that I borrowed from Shinji in my right hand, I used my entire weight into stabbing the sword into its nose, even twisting it at the end . The red light effect that had never came up till now bloomed rather magnificently .

「――GYAAAAAAOOOOOOOO！ ? 」

I knew that this was the most effective attack so far . Yup, once again the-Eh, it won’t come off . I’ll do it this way then!

While hanging onto the sword that had pierced too deep into his nose, I  mindlessly fired bullets into the wound on the Jiisha’s nose .

But as expected, I couldn’t maintain that posture for long . The Jiisha shook its head to the side as if to brush off a fly-which is me-from its head . He succeeded .

「――Oops!」

Though we were separated again, this time the Jiisha suffered greatly . . The pain which came from me driving in hails of bullets after nailing in the sword . Now to finish him off .

「――【Polar】 , Activate! HERE I COME, JIIISHAAAAAAA!」
