As I was dealing with the one-eyed wyvern, I received a shock from behind by shooting wind magic and being kept in check.
What!??
I felt severe pain in my left shoulder and immediately understood what had happened to me.
The other wyvern flying in the sky had attacked me from behind.
I was so focused on the wyvern in front of me that I ignored the wyvern flying in the sky. I want to punch myself in the head for forgetting about the other wyvern, even if only temporarily.
My body, whose shoulder was grabbed by the Wyvern, floated.
This is bad.
I tried to move my body, but Wyvern’s claws were digging into my shoulder, and I couldn’t escape. Moreover, when I moved my body, I felt severe pain in my left shoulder where I was held. Thanks to the chainmail I’m wearing, at least it’s not digging too deep into my shoulder, but it still hurts.
Moreover, the force was to the wyvern’s claws. I could only grit my teeth and endure it.
“You shouldn’t grab a girl’s soft shoulders so tightly. If you do that, she won’t like you. You should hold a girl’s shoulder gently.” (Shinobu)
I don’t know if this Wyvern is a male or female, but I still say that.
With the tantō in my right hand, I slashed the wyvern’s leg that was clutching my shoulder.
As Wyvern shrieked, the claws on my shoulders loosened. I almost fell off, but I grabbed the Wyvern’s leg and extended my arm to slice through its lower belly.
The wyvern violently failed and shook me off.
The height was higher than the building.
When I fell to the ground, I used wind magic to land so that the magic lessened the impact successfully. However, the landing impact caused pain in my left shoulder.
‘U~u’
Ouch.
I looked up and saw a wyvern with its leg and belly cut off fleeing.
All that remained was an angry wyvern with one eye and one wing missing.
The one-winged wyvern would dash as if it had found its prey and tried to hold me by the shoulders to keep me still.
I’d like to get some rest.
It put strength into its heavy legs, and so I readied my tantō.
Wyvern stretched its long neck and opened its mouth.
I dodged at the last second and slashed its throat with my tantō.
I was able to cut the wyvern’s head off, but the wyvern’s momentum did not stop, and it bounced off and rolled on the ground.
My body hurts.
But now, there is only one left.
I tried to stand up to fight, but my legs, my arms, I can’t move them, I have no strength left.
My legs trembled. I tapped my foot with my arm, which has no strength, to stop my leg from shaking.
I need to move a little more.
Once again, I stood up on my feet.
Somehow, I could stand up, but my legs were not strong enough.
When I hit my knee, it started to move a little.
And I think I can move some more.
I wiped the blood from my forehead and looked up at the other one-eyed wyvern circling in the sky.
It would be nice to go somewhere, but it doesn’t look like they will.
It’s circling the top of the building.
After all, the seal was what they were after, wasn’t it?
At the very least, I would like them to stay in the air until someone comes here.
Such a wish was not heeded. The wyvern descended towards the building.
I have to move my screaming body and run.
I won’t let you break the seal.
I shot a blade of wind with magic power flowing into my tantō. It’s not powerful, but it hits the wyvern.
The wyvern that was hit by the wind blade changed the target into me, not the building.
Only a fool would call in a wyvern himself and put himself in danger.
I have no magic power left in me.
I lowered my posture and held up my tantō.
This is the last one.
I took a direct hit from the wyvern’s charge.
