Chapter 1 E 13 (Fleeing) 5

After dismantling the wild bee, Ryouma moves out of the forest.

Since he asked to make lunch box at the Inn, he has plenty of time for searching.

(Anyway, it seems like I’ve gotten used to battle eh.)

Now, if only the weapon he owns is his beloved katana then.

He thought of such thing…

It seems like he can at least use the chakram using shuriken technique. However, it is unfortunate that he still finds it hard to use the sword.

Usually, pull then cut = using power to cut, while the sword is hard to use due to the difference in using it.

However, right now is not the time for him to worry about such a thing. Anyway, there’s nothing he can do other than crossing the border with this equipment.

Probably the empire pursuers have already searched Ryouma at a faraway place right now.

Given they have a horse, it was natural.

The problem is whether the pursuers choose to go toward the eastern direction like Ryouma did or not, Ryouma then have a slight expectation.

(If it were up to me, if I have to find someone that I don’t know what kind of face the person have then, I won’t be stingy at using how much personnel to search. Then I will make the guard at the border much thicker so that no one suspicious goes out of the country. Then narrow down the net, from the imperial capital to the borders.)

Ryouma’s thought continues as he went through the forest.

(Just this time, I was able to win by not getting captured at the imperial capital narrowly. The advantage of my face being not known by them is only up to that point. However, how will I cross the border later…?)

Ryouma suddenly opened his eyes wide with the spectacle in front of him.

The trees in the forest are being cuts and only left a vast open space.

*Gurururu*

Suddenly howling sounds can be heard.

There’s a dog as big as 1 meter long there. Dozens of them.

Probably they are one family. Among them, dog’s Childs can be seen too.

(Are those guys the wild dog…?)

He cannot yet make a move since the other party seems to be very vigilant.

Perhaps because there’s the dog child, he feels a little bit hesitant.

(This is a chance…)

Ryouma quickly took the chakram and aimed at the dog parents who are currently guarding the child.

*Fon*

The chakram flew cutting through the wind.

If the wild dog were to dodge that, it would hit the child.

If the wild dog did not avoid that, it would hit.

One after another Ryouma threw the chakram.

*Zashu*

A sounds cutting some flesh.

*Kiyui~~*

A howl of agony.

Ryouma then quickly pulls his sword and run toward the wild dog immediately.

Eight wild dogs are coming toward Ryouma.

And some take crouched stance with their body being wounded by the chakrams,

The first one that sprung attacking Ryouma is the one standing in front of him by 2 meters.

(Damn it, I guess they are still a beast…)

Ryouma plunged his sword to the dog open wide mouth.

One can say, jumping is not a good strategy.

Because if you don’t have wings, you won’t be able to make any good maneuver in the air.

The story would be different if it were an ambush, but if it’s frontal battle like this then, it is not a good idea.

In the first place, the wild dog doesn’t have much of intelligence.

It jumps toward Ryouma based on instinct.

The seventh, eight, then ninth.

He avoided the wild dog who jumped consecutively toward him, and when they passed him, he knocked them down.

While he handled them mechanically, Ryouma make a careless move.

One of them did not jump and rushed toward his foot with its fangs.

*Dogun*

Ryouma kick out his right foot toward its neck and broke the neck.

And then, Ryouma pierced his sword to the wild dog head that he kicked.

(Fuu, That was dangerous. I was careless…)

The are only three left.

They are the Childs of the wild dog.

As expected of a creature called a monster, even as a child they seem to be quite ferocious.

They raise threatening groan toward Ryouma.

The distance is around 5 meters.

Ryouma prepare his swords on the left side. It is a stance that aims from the lower left to the upper right.

Both of them then glared at each other, and gradually the air around them become heavy.

Ryouma vs. three of them.

At the time the wild dog’s blood thirst was going to explode, Ryouma erases his blood thirst all at once.

Due to that, the three wild dogs hesitated to attack him.

There, Ryouma cuts down their distance quickly.

He draws the sword from the lower left to the upper right in a flash, then one of the dog head flew.

Then the raised sword drew the same trajectory and cut the second.

Maybe because it feels danger being alone, the third one immediately turn around and began running.

(As if I let you escape!)

Ryouma pierced the sword into the ground and took out chakram and threw it.

(Fuu, 13 of them in total…)

The battle itself took around three to four minutes.

Because all of them are being done just by a single strike, thus he didn’t need much time to finish.

He wiped his sweat that appeared on his forehead with his hand, then Ryouma breathed out deeply.

(The chakram is not bad… the bad point is the need to collect them after using it…)

Because there’s no handle and all the outer circle of the chakram is the blade, although the power is significant but, because of that the chakram always stuck buried inside the meat.

He cleans up all the blood from six chakrams and put it back inside the bag on his waist.

(Now then, let us begin… let’s see…)

According to the beginner’s guide book, the valuable part of the wild dog is only the canine that grows from the upper jaw and the fur.

Although Ryouma can do it by hands, he decided to used the sword to peel off the fur of the wild dog.
