Fake 59: Imp

Since we were nearing where the monsters were located, we carefully proceeded until we reached a place where small outlines of the monsters could be seen.

“Rin-kun, this might be a little bad.
Looks like there are a lot of monsters.
Although there seem to be only 2 E-ranks, the number of F-rank and G-rank monsters isn’t something we can make light of.”

“Then, I will take on E-rank monsters.
In the meantime, I will leave the other monsters to you.”

Except for E-rank monsters, which we had limited to two, we deliberately didn’t set a limit on the number of monsters to get more requests.
That was why the number of monsters became more than we had expected this time.
However, unlike before, my level has risen, and my coordination with Aoi has gotten better.
So, it wouldn’t be a problem for us to face this number of monsters.

As for E-rank monsters, there is one ogre, and… is the other one an imp?
This is my first time actually seeing it.
But, that monster with a peculiar appearance must be the imp I’ve often heard of.

“Rin-kun, that is an imp.
Even though it is small, it is quite a devilish one.
It is also ranked highest among E-rank monsters.
Please be careful.”

Sure enough, I wasn’t mistaken that it was an imp, but was it also the strongest E-rank monster? Although I couldn’t see it from its appearance, it was undoubtedly a formidable opponent.
I pumped myself up and faced the enemy.
I fired [Explosion] as an opening move and started the battle.
There was no way the enemies would spread out conveniently for me, so I fired [Explosion] again toward the goblin ahead of me and exterminated it.
Simultaneously, Aoi also fired [Explosion] and opened a path ahead.

Leaving the unfamiliar imp for later, I ran toward the ogre.
Since I’d fought with an ogre previously, I could grasp its pattern to some extent.

“Here I come! [Wind Cutter]”

I released a wind blade aiming at the ogre’s leg.
Even though the previous ogre avoided it by jumping, this time’s ogre ran sideways to dodge it.
This wasn’t what I expected, but there was no way the intelligent ogre could only perform uniform moves.
So, I attacked again without panicking.

“Try evading this! [Explosion]”

This time, I released explosive flames directly under its feet, and the ogre jumped to evade it just as I intended.

Then, I fired [Vortex Fire] and exterminated the airborne ogre that dodged my attack.
One down.
Once again, I fired [Explosion] at the monsters approaching from my surroundings and changed my target to the imp.

“How about this! [Lightning]”

A flash of lightning was released to kill the imp, but an unbelievable thing happened at that time.
The moment I thought the imp had spoken something, it was wrapped around by the green light.
The lightning struck the imp immediately after that, but the imp stood still at its place without collapsing.
Looking at it carefully, it didn’t look like it was unscathed, but it seemed I couldn’t give it a fatal injury.

Did that green light protect it?
By some chance, was that a skill?
I have heard that some high-ranked monsters use things like skills, but is this guy one of them?
Thinking simply, it was a defensive skill.
Furthermore, it could resist skills, huh?

“Then, how about this! [Explosion]”

I fired today’s third [Explosion].
(T/N: It should be fourth.)
With this, I can only use it once more.
Considering the remaining monsters, I’d like to preserve my skills as much as possible.
Having been engulfed by the explosion, the imp looked to be in pain.
