Me and the small, medium, and large Great cat tigers glared at each other.

The prince watched us from the side.

I dont like the calm attitude theyre exuding. Well, I can shoot Lightning magic continuously with room to spare but doing it excessively in front of the prince is also a problem.

Because, since a little while ago, I felt someonesGazebesides the prince from somewhere.

Since I cant confirm it on the map, if Im being watched, it seemed not to be from nearby. A level 4Information magicsTrackingor theres also a possibility of it being a magic I have no knowledge of.

So, I decided to useWater magic.

I took out three bottles from the inventory and opened the lid. I manipulate the liquid contents usingWater magicand formed a sphere.

Great cat tigers (small) and (medium) spread to the left and right. While *Stomp stomp* Great cat tiger (large) charged straight.

I ran towards (Large) along with thesphereI created, and then with aGaon, it opened its huge mouth wide, during which, I threw thespheredirectly into it. The great cat tiger (Large) was surprised and bewildered, it jumped over with a leapfrog while forcibly closing its huge mouth.

The great cat tiger (Large), who had water shot inside its mouth, violently coughed with a strange sound ofGahon gahon. Suddenly, *dizzy* its body began to sway and immediately after, it collapsed, toppling sideways. (Small) and (Medium) rushed over anxiously while the Prince had a surprised look.

Great cat tiger (Large) , while being watched by (Small) and (Medium), stood up slowly. But, *stagger* its steps were unsteady.

The liquid I threw into the mouth of the great cat tiger (Large) was a liquor. Besides, it has a concentration of 96, it was a liquor with the worlds highest concentration. I bought it for the time when we plan to make the Elixir. It wasnt needed immediately, so I will just buy it again later.

Great cat tiger1 (Large) staggered and bumped into (Small) and (Medium), it had to have support each time. Its steps were completely tottering. Seeing how things were, it began to coil itself around (Small) and (Medium). (Small) and (Medium) tried their hardest to soothe it. Great cat tiger (Large) trampled on the tail of Great cat tiger (Medium). And finally started to fight. (Small) was at a loss, circling around the two fighting animals.

The pets, your last ray of hope, are like this. What will you do? Useless pets.

As the prince said so, *walks slowly* it approached the Great cat tiger and swung the huge club from its waist.

The Great cat tiger (Large) and (Medium), who were fighting with each other, received the Princes blow and collapsed. The Great cat tiger (Small) was frightened with the sudden occurrence and fled into the forest.

What a cheap bastard, doing such a thing! Pet abuse is a felony!

It was only entertainment thus far. Ill flatten you immediately. Try it if you can!

Inside the forest where trees burned in the surroundings, there was only the Prince and I. The mortal combat will finally begin.

***

While the face-off with the Prince continued. I tried to check up on Elena.

The towns adventurers followed Elena and fall back near the towns entrance. The battles situation is reflected. Her MP is running low, without using magic, the enemies are sent flying withMagic rod.

But, when I tried to check the map, the small fries decreased to the extent that it seems they will soon be annihilated. I can now face the Prince in a mortal combat with a peace of mind.

***

The Prince who had become irritated, brandished his huge club and attacked. But, as it was a huge weapon, its speed was slow. I quickly moved to the side and dodged it. The huge club directly hit the ground and the ground shook.

Uh-oh.

As the ground shook, I lost my footing The next instant, I was blown off directly to the side!

I set up a barrier just before it hit and suppressed the power. Since I blocked it with the Replica sword, there wasnt that much damage.

But, an attack that shakes the ground is troublesome. My timing is going to be delayed when I lose my footing.

What kind of? Cant do a thing?

The guy prepared the same attack again.

I dodged it to the side in the same way and at the moment when the ground was about to shake, I jumped.

Fool!

The guy stopped in the middle of his first attack, at a trajectory like the character , unleashed his second attack. I can avoid it quickly withTeleportationif I like but I intentionally usedWind magics wind gust and dodged the upward attack. And, as it is, I swung down the Replica sword towards its defenseless head.

*Thud*

With a dry sound, the helmet that the Prince was wearing, split into two.

What!?

Riding on the momentum, I destroyed the Princes armor in the same way.

Curse you!What a cheap bastard, doing such strange movements!

Then, aiming at the Princes body that has become bare, I slashed using the Replica sword.

But. The Replica sword, which cut the Princes body about 1 cm, stopped.

Was that an attack? With such an attack, you cant damage this body of mine!

The Prince triumphantly laughed loudly.

I give up, the attack doesnt go through, theres no choice but to attack using magic. But, I dont want to reveal too much of my magic.

I put away the Replica sword and took out theKnifemade in japan instead.

Whats that small weapon?

The Princes laugh immediately ceased.

*Pierce pierce* I approached while dodging the Princes club and kept stabbing the Princes body producing spattering sounds.

It hurts!How can you pierce my body with such a weapon!?

In this way, I could defeat him if I just kept on stabbing *splatter spatter*. Just when I thought so

The prince, at the moment when the knife pierced, contracted its muscles on that spot making the knife cant be pulled out. I was puzzled for an instant on how to pull the knife out. The Prince having completed its aim, swung down its club.

I promptly throw aLightning fist. The Prince became paralyzed, stopping its attack. I hastily pulled out the knife.

Dangerous!

After that, it became a one sided development.

The Prince gradually lost the sharpness of its attack from bleeding and pain. I can now easily get close. After attacking with a stab, I paralyzed him usingLightning fist. As for pulling theKnifeout, rather than pulling it out as it is, *grind* I rotate it and pull it out after the wound expanded.

I considerably get used to handling theKnife. Not only stabbing, I can now also use it to cut.

When such a thing continued for a while The Prince, who was covered with blood from all over, knelt down at last.

I, I

Leaving those words unsaid, the Prince fell on his face and didnt move anymore.

I dealt the finishing blow and cut off the princes neck. When I put the knife away in the inventory

TheGazeI felt all the while, finally disappeared.

Level went up to 35. Short blade techniquesacquired. Short blade techniquesis now level 4.

As there was a level difference, I leveled up at once.

But, battling while hiding the trump spells till the last moment was really tiring

When I checked the map, with Elenas participation, the monsters had been nearly wiped out.

I can now finally let out a breath. And I returned to where Elena is.
