Chapter 53 – Defeat The Slime With Continuous Attacks
A fireball from the Burning Slime is approaching… D*mn, not again! It’s too big to dodge!!
If things continue like this, I’ll end up like Alfred…!
“What are you standing around for?! Big brother, you have the ‘Uninhabited Island Development Skill’!”
――That’s right.
I have the strongest ability skill I received from Havamar, don’t I! Don’t lose heart, me. I still have enough power to fight back!!
In an emergency, I use “stone” and “soil” to set up a “pitfall” on the ground. I jump into it.
The fireball grazes overhead.
That was close~!!
If I had been a little slower, I would have been completely charred.
Waiting for the right moment, I escape from the pitfall. I leap high into the air and aim towards the Burning Slime.
Then, I imitated Alfred’s sword skill—I stabbed the Lightning Rapier above the enemy’s head, and deliver a critical blow with a wind attribute attack. …It worked!!1
――Aaaah!!
However, it wasn’t finished yet. The Burning Slime resisted and rampaged. Just… what kind of “treasured sword” is this? It’s not doing anything at all… No, I did deal damage, but it wasn’t fatal. I didn’t have enough power.
Then, this is the next one――!!
“Simultaneous attack with Gale Tulle and Falling Rocks!”
I struck the Lightning Rapier with my pickaxe, fully embedding it. Then I activate the defensive equipment, “Falling Rocks,” and dropped a large amount of stones.
The continuous attacks paid off, as the Lightning Rapier within the Burning Slime exploded. It had also eaten a large amount of stones, and was in a state of chaos.
Finally, the slime couldn’t maintain its form and exploded into scattered pieces and turned into dust…
Is it over?
I obtained the drop items: “Belliose Gold Coin x3” and “Mysterious Map x1.” …Huh? Gold coins. Why did that slime drop gold coins…
No, more importantly…
“Alfred!! Skor, what’s Alfred’s condition?!”
There was Skor, healing Alfred a short distance away. From what I could see, he doesn’t seem to have suffered any major injuries.
“He’s fine. He had a minor bruise, so I healed it with Heal.”
“A bruise!? Can you get away with just a bruise after taking such a powerful fireball…?”
As I tilted my head in confusion, Alfred regained consciousness.
“Y-young master… I’m glad young master is safe.”
“You idiot. Right now, I’m more worried about your body than mine. Are you alright?”
“Yes, thanks to Skor-sama’s Heal.”
As expected of Skor.
If there was no Heal, it might have been bad. Also, Alfred is a holy knight. His body is more trained than mine, and he has a lot of combat experience. He might have skillfully protected himself.
“I’m glad. Anyway, I’ve defeated the Burning Slime. Let’s go home.”
“You’re truly amazing, Young Master. Even without my assistance, you confronted that formidable enemy. You’ve truly become brave and fearless… I’m truly delighted.”
He’s still as emotional as ever, this butler. But hearing those words made me feel my own growth as well. That’s right, even back when I was in the castle, I couldn’t have imagined myself taking such actions. I’m no longer the person I used to be――.
