Fake 71: A Tiger At The Front, A Wolf At The Rear
I kept activating and firing my skills one after another at the giant ogre while keeping distance, but it hasn’t died yet.
“Not dead yet?…… Isn’t this guy way too tough?”
In the end, even my [Explosion] has reached its skill-usable limit.
Unfortunately, my firepower is insufficient.
It isn’t enough to finish off the enemy.
No matter how tattered its body became, the giant ogre slowly approached me step by step.
I’ve thought about retreating further backwards, but Aoi and the others are fighting another giant ogre at my rear.
I can’t retreat any further.
If I do so, it will affect Aoi and the others.
No choice but to fight here.
I tightly grasped the survival knife with my hand and bombarded the incoming giant ogre with the remaining [Wind Cutter] and [Ice Javelin] until I couldn’t use them anymore.
“So, this didn’t do any good either, huh?……”
No matter how I look at it, the giant ogre is tattered.
Even so, it was heading towards me without collapsing.
Of all the skills I have, the firepower of the skills imitated from Kamiki-san are by far the best, and it doesn’t seem like the giant ogre can be defeated with my other skills either.
Now that all my skills are completely used up, I have nothing left but the survival knife held in my hand.
I don’t think my close combat ability, which falls short even to a goblin, will be effective against the giant ogre.
However, if I back off here, Aoi and the others will have to face great pressure.
Although they currently seem to be pressing the monster, the situation will be completely reversed if they have to face two monsters simultaneously.
That’s why I can’t escape here.
This is the exact situation of ‘a tiger at the front and a wolf at the rear.’
“Haha……”
An old story suddenly came to my mind; I felt strange at the thought that I let out a laughter unfit for the current situation.
However, Aoi won’t be able to escape if I die.
To prevent that from happening, I set my brain to full operation in this extreme situation.
Is there something, or any methods, I can use to overcome the current predicament?
Without averting my eyes from the approaching giant ogre, I searched for clues, which could lead me to victory.
I wouldn’t have noticed this slightly peculiar thing if I were in a normal situation.
But because my concentration was currently pushed to the limits, I noticed it.
But, there is something strange when I think about it carefully.
The skill-usable limits of both [Ice Javelin] and [Wind Cutter] were one use more than usual.
I usually fight while keeping track of my skill-usable amounts.
But earlier, I was repeatedly firing my skills until they ran out because I was driven into a corner.
So, I didn’t have any leeway to keep track of my total uses.
But now that I think back on it, the number of times I used my skills since this raid started was one time more than usual for each skill.
Skills could never be used beyond their maximum uses.
No matter how much you concentrate or how hard you try, it is impossible.
Therefore, there are only two possibilities.
The first is simply my counting mistake.
If that is the case, I am truly finished.
Checkmate.
I’ll have no choice but to launch a sucide attack with the survival knife.
Another possibility is an increase in skill-usable times due to mid-battle level up.
