When the Giant Skeleton Knight leveled his sword, he unleashed a horizontal strike.

It’s impossible to shift the trajectory with wind magic. The sword is too big. There’s a big hole behind me and there’s no way to escape backwards. Timing is important. I jumped just as the thick blade was about to cut my body in two.

That was a close call. It was a large and unskilled attack, but it was so incredibly powerful that even a slightest scratch of it could prove to be fatal. It’s strength is several steps above that of a goblin or an ordinary skeleton knight. It’s not a monster you want to encounter in the area before you enter the dungeon!

The low quality sword I have can’t crush a skull or destroy it until it’s incapacitated.

「Should I use magic?」

The question is, what kind of magic should I use? An «Ice Ball» would be useless. A high-powered— Dangerous!

As soon as I stood up, there was a huge fist in front of me.

「«Magic Barrier»!!!!」

As soon as the transparent membrane appeared in front of me, the Giant Skeleton Knight’s fist collided with it. A strong wind was generated around it with a violent collision sound.

The Giant Skeleton Knight doesn’t seem to have given up yet, and more power is put into it in an attempt to destroy the magical barrier. When I think that I made an unpleasant noise at the last minute, I heard a cracking sound like Parin~, Parin~.

The magical barrier that was protecting me had cracked.

This is not good! If I don’t do something, I’ll be pushed over the edge!

I try to repair it with all my magic power, but it’s too late. The cracks just keep increasing. No, no, no! I can’t hold on like this…!

With the sound of breaking glass, the magic barrier was destroyed. At the same time, I backstep and float in the air, using wind magic to blow my body backwards.

I ended up falling towards the entrance of the dungeon— A large hole.

The Giant Skeleton Knight is just standing at the edge of the big hole, looking down.

「«Falling Control»」

I used a non-attribute magic to slow down the fall.

Now all I have to do is fall slowly until I reach the ground.

Suck it up! No matter how strong you are, you’ll never get this far!

「If that’s the case, then you can come here!」

I laughed, provoking him.

You can’t even use the stairs with your huge body! You’ll just have to stand there and watch your prey run away!

Hmm? Why are you squatting down as if you’re gathering strength?

Hey, hey. No way! And then he flew away!!!!

The Giant Skeleton Knight’s huge body floats in the air and falls according to gravity. It’s also aiming to crush me.

Don’t you dare take me up on my provocation, you empty brained bastard!

Damn it, I’ll have to run!
