Chapter 103 (1/2)

“I want to ask you one thing” (Laboras)

While grasping the haft of the knife tightly, Laboras asks without drawing the blade out

“Why did you come to this forest?” (Laboras)

“I heard that the demon race is deep within this forest I came to visit them” (Hifumi)

“You plan to meet the demons, huh?” (Laboras)

“That’s what I said” (Hifumi)

Hearing Hifumi’s reply, Laboras swiftly draws his knife

“That means there’s even less reason to let you leave this place alive” (Laboras)

While having a stance of ai at the eyes with his katana, Hifumi doesn’t move

“The deerous I don’t knohat you intend to do, but even though we are i unnecessary turmoil” (Laboras)

Laboras kept his left hand free to use ht hand

The five elves who saw that change, similarly set up their bows and knives

“Get out ofant to escape! The ones who are to stay here are only the elves who have the resolve to protect this forest and world” (Laboras)

Having started to retreat bit-by-bit, the elves stopped their feet

Hifu to see which choice they will make

“For me… impossible”

“For me as well”

One after the other two elves ran away, however the re three elven youths readied their weapons

“The actors have assein?” (Hifumi)

“Don’t talk such crap!” (Laboras)

The beginning was a ic attack by Laboras

Several tens of fist-sized pellets which had sharpened points assault Hifuun

Taking a stance with his legs in a L-shape, Hifu the katana as support to shi+ft their trajectory

Although Hifureeted with a thrust, Laboras roughly repelled it with his knife

“Humph!” (Laboras)

Laboras drives his free left hand into Hifu knife

Kicking the ground at thehit, Hifu struck to take some distance

Once again they face each other at the same distance

Due to the sudden close coive cover or to do anything else Even though they have readied their spells and arrows, they have no choice but to watch attentively

“You are quick and you are even able to hit me, huh?” (Hifumi)

Hifuain

The hit abdomen is painful to the extent that I can at least expect a bruise though it’s unlikely to have reached as far as ans

“An incoic isn’t fit to act as mediator between men It seems that you avoided it skilfully just now, but next time that won’t work” (Laboras)

Changing his hold of the knife to an overhand grip, Laboras takes a stance of curling up his back

Holding out the knife he held in his right hand, his left hand supports in a style of enabling hiic at any time

“It’s a different stance However, it looks like you are familiar with it” (Hifumi)

“Indeed This is an elven technique we have fostered in this forest It’s at a different level in skill, weaponry and ic in comparison to you lowly humans” (Laboras)

Making sure to slide his feet, Laboras slowly closes the distance

Hifuht

A wind spell burst open underfoot the spot where Hifule step

“… Avoided, huh?” (Laboras)

“Don’t leak such easily detectable signs It’s a kill-joy” (Hifumi)

“Humph… do it!” (Laboras)

Upon Laboras’ command arrows and spells attack Hifumi all at once

Their speed is much faster than that of the elves who attacked Hifuher as well

Hifu the the saturation attack, Laboras adds attacks with his knife and wedge-shaped stones with a perfect ti

“You are doing nothing but avoiding!” (Laboras)

Laboras increases the speed by stacking up even more attacks

Hifu those bloith his bare hand, turned around and ran off

“Are you running away?” (Laboras)

“Certainly not” (Hifumi)

Swinging his arht of an elf with his blood

“Ugh?”

The elf, who tried to fire an arrow, faltered only for an instant due to his abruptly dyed red field of vision That became this man’s final moment

Alongside the wooden bow he grasped in his hands, his body as bisected into two parts at the waist in a flash

“It’s only vaguely, but…” (Hifumi)

As result of their co killed by the opponent as showered with a saturation attack, they unintentionally cease their attacks

“The style of the archery is harder to grasp than the ic No, it’s the other way around I reached the point where I can soic” (Hifumi)

While saying that, he struck the wind spell approaching from behind with the hilt of the katana and scattered it

“… You bastard, are you really a human…?” (Laboras)

Due to the subdued voice of Laboras who spilled drops of sweat, Hifumi answered with a smile,

“That’s obvious You, uys will die if we are cut by a blade We are normal people Just like him” (Hifumi)

He points at the corpse which had its body split in two

“That’s probably e get thrilled by killing each other, because starting over is not possible” (Hifumi)

Without htly with both hands and assule 八相 to see pictures I explained it in soot where and can’t be bothered to check through over 100 chapters :p)

“I will kill you here by all means” (Laboras)

“I see Do your best” (Hifumi)

Once again the ic attacks concentrated on Hifumi who muttered that as if it was someone else’s problem

Different to before, Hifu around as he pleases He slips through the spaces between the lined-up elves just like a ind

“Auu!”

“Guaaa?”

The elves in all directions raise screams and collapse in fountains of blood

While being hindered by their brethren ot killed

Suddenly noticing so, Hifumi pushed the back of an elf

“Eh…? Eh…”

The elf didn’t comprehend as done to him for an instant, but once he lowered his look due to an intense i into his own chest

“Why…?”

Once the dead elf collapsed without even understanding the reason, Hifuht of Laboras who released the spell

“L-Laboras-san!?”

An elf, surprised by the friendly fire, shi+fted his attention from Hifu directly into his heart

Laboras fires one stone after the other at Hifuot skewered, in the line of fire

While pulling out the katana, Hifumi, who decided to use the corpse as shi+eld and kicked it flying, dashed in an extre out the power of his knees

He doesn’t head towards Laboras, but to another elf

“D-Don’t come!”

Although he tries to face Hifuht, he is too slow

As he tried to finish hional shoulder slash, Hifumi fell onto his back this time

At the moment the elf felt relieved with a “I’m saved,” his entire body was riddled with holes by the stone bullets, similar to finely sharpened shells, fired by Laboras

“Tsk” (Laboras)

“Don’t sweep away my prey from the side” (Hifumi)

Hifuue due to Hifu his shots
