Chapter 40

Although the black lizard has slightly slowed down he tried to compensate by doing quick maneuvers . He would quickly turn right, go past to the left, then right, and surely there was another tree in the way .

Sometimes doing strange sandwiching movements and feints in order to shake me off, but he was not even able to stall me .

He did not hurry and make a mistake but assess the situation calmly .

Such a person is strong . I sometimes immediately get hot headed when a situation seems impossible .

Black Lizard was a better user of the〖roll〗skill than me .

But now it is different .

The number of unstable footholds of wood, and the arrangement of the demons horrifying scene causing the black lizard to repeatedly keep decelerating as to dodge them .

At this point in time, I’m accustomed to doing this because of all my practicing and prior experiences .

The running Black Lizard which previously lead his target in a secluded area never needed to try to avoid obstacles while drawing his opponents because he had the home field advantage . Now though, I took control of the pace,the direction, and speed we were going .

So no matter how complicated terrain gets I will never lose sight of him again .

Oh, wait, that was my mistake!

When you are rolling at this kind of speed it becomes hard to control . I end up crashing into three big trees rapidly decreasing my speed .

Well this is still a completely difference experience for me because so far I have been the one being chased but this time I am doing the chasing .

Letting the black lizard escape would be the worst outcome for me . If I caught him though, all he will have to look forward to is death .

Of course it is life threatening if I can’t detoxify the poison . I won’t let him escape .

But once I know I’m cured then I am of course immediately changing him into experience points on the spot .

The thing is he should also understand this so he should do whatever it takes not to get caught .

My impatience and fear plus other thoughts started to build, because rarely do things ever go my way .

while I ran I worried whether my arm could grow back, and if Black Lizard feared death .

I can still roll very quickly despite my mistake because I can easily judge the positional relationship of the lizard and myself in the dense, difficult terrain .

This can also be said one of the advantages of being considerably large .

I perfectly tracked the black lizard keeping a mutual distance of about 8m from each other .

The black lizard accelerates desperately probably trying to shake me off .

He keeps trying to evade by rapidly changing directions, but is continuously making the mistake of underestimating me .

The lizard’s speed started to drop so I slowed also as to maintain a little distance .

There is no need to be hasty and make a mistake .

If I drive him to the cliff then I’ll try to catch and secure him .

[ Normal skill 〖roll〗 of Lv 4 went up to Lv 5 . ]

It rose!

With this I won’t need to use the element of surprise to win next time .

Looking around I have a good view of the surrounding and spot the cliff, It’s closing up fast .

Already, just a little distance and that solves it .

There is an opening, now is my chance!

Between me and him is only about 5m left and it will all be over .

Yes there is just 1 meter left, patience is a virtue .

The monster is now slowing down, but if I collide into him and knock him off then this would have been a complete loss!

Time and time again his attempts to avoid me ended in his loss!

Furthermore it is only 1m .

Yes he is not slowing down!

There is no way he could overcome my speed!

I pity the black lizard-kun .

If he met me after he grew a little more then he’d have probably been a good rival .

The Black Lizard’s speed started to decease .

Did he gave up on escaping?

“kishi and kishishishishishi!”

From rolling Black Lizard threw a large amount of stones .

These sand like bullets must be the black lizard〖pottery craftsmen〗skill .

How skillful do you have to be to be able to do this .

Hit ratio is low because he is rolling, but the sheer number makes up for that .

Unintentionally I am pleased that I get to fight on equal terms in my own field of expertise .

What are you going to do now?

First, it makes a big right turn .

In a moment, my consciousness faded .

I then noticed that I fell sprawled on the ground, I then noticed that I was face-to-face with the sky . Looking at the sky I realized my dwarfishness and the vast emptiness of it and a smile unintentionally leaked .

It took me a few seconds, to understand my current situation .

Watching his counterattack for an instant stopped keeping my awareness on the speed of my〖roll〗, and so I crashed into a tree .

When I raised my upper body the black lizard was barely visible, and was still running far far away while laughing .

Hohhohho .

Damn Yyyyoooouuuuu! !

I got up in a big hurry, and started chasing the black lizard with all my power .

If things stay as they are now I will lose sight of him!

This is an emergency I will have only one arm! This is absolutely not a joke! !

Finally I realized why I made that big of a mistake .

Simply put, when there is a high chance of victory then there is a risk of being too overconfident .

Thinking back during the cliff I should have tackled him from behind .

In the first place I did not know much about Black Lizard!

I am an Idiot! I am such a fool!

It is not supposed to feel like doing lengthy tag!

Immediately I put my maximum effort into〖roll〗 .

Right, left, right!

Because I increased my speed too rapidly to control I was unable to avoid all the trees!

But not slowing down I bounce off tree after tree and slowly shave them, receiving the recoil and being forced forward!

It is not a clean run, I know .

I prepared myself for the damage and keep pushing myself even though the risk is very high!

I used the trail left behind by the Black Lizard’s roll as a reference, what do you think about that you bastard?!
