70 – The Dungeon of Test 4 (1/2)

70 – The Dungeon of Test (4)

It is the giant bats’ attack which disrupts your sense of balance.

Be that as it may, there were only 2 more giant bats remaining.

Taking them down should solve this. We just have to calm down and endure through the dizziness.

「This is those guys’ magic attack. It disrupts your sense of balance, so be careful」

「It feels really unpleasant, but I am fine!」Rosetta said.

「Yes! I will not be defeated」

Rosetta and Tina resumed their attacks.

However, Rosetta’s arrow and Tina’s magic all miss their mark.

It must be the effect of the dizziness.

「Rosetta, Tina! Are you alright?」

「I am fine!」

And then, Rosetta lowered her right knee to the ground and kept her left knee upright.

She most likely took that position to prevent her body from wavering due to the dizziness when shooting the arrows.

「With this!」

Rosetta shot three arrows but only one hit the target. But one arrow is not going to take down the giant bat.

Following Rosetta’s example, Tina dropped both knees to the ground and launched a fireball. But it missed the target by a small margin.

「Urgh! A little bit more! The next one will definitely hit!」

Tina got impatient and tried to launch a larger fireball.

If you miss by a slight margin, then you should simply expand the range of the attack.

That judgement itself is correct.

But, the giant bat reacted to Tina’s rising magic.

From high-altitude, the two giant bats shot magic bullets aimed at Tina from their mouth.

Tina, who has both knees on the ground, can’t dodge it.

「Hii-!」

Arti carried Tina, who had her eyes closed, and leapt sideways.

「Although I understand what you were trying to do, it is dangerous to go down to both knees during combat」

「A-Arti, thank you」

「Don’t worry about it」

The giant bats rained down additional magic bullets aimed at Arti who was carrying Tina.

Arti skilfully dodges the attacks while carrying Tina under her arm.

As a result, the distance between us and Arti grew larger.

Unintentionally, we were separated into two groups of Rosetta and me, and Arti and Tina.

「「KiiiKiiii」」

At that moment, the giant bats which had fallen down, rushed at us simultaneously.

「Uwaa!」

Rosetta threw away her arrow and pulled out the short sword which she had fastened at her waist. She used the bow and dagger to stop the blow from the fangs and claws of the giant bat.

The other one rushed at me, so I leapt sideways and dodged it.

The giant bats that had fallen down, had been approaching us slowly.

They had erased their presence and were playing dead so as not to alert us.

They seem to be considerably smarter that a normal giant bat.

Rosetta cried out in a slightly panicked manner.

「The bow has been broken!」

Even though it happened in an instant, naturally the bow would break under the pressure of the fangs.

「Leave it to me… oops!」

「Eh?」

I purposely fell down.

「KiKiiKiii!」
