Chapter 46

――Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr

No mistake, it’s a pack of wolves. Last time, I used vines tangled in the trees to set a trap, but that won’t work this time. This place is indeed dangerous.

“Guess we have to face them head-on.”

I whispered for it to hide, and Myu obediently burrowed into Nelly flower bed.

The plucked red petals danced in the wind.

――Grrraaaaaah!

Three wolves attacked simultaneously. I lowered my stance, pivoted on one foot, and drew my blade――slashing across the snouts of all three. From their shadows, two, then three more claws came rushing at me. I took a step back to create distance, and the wolves collided head-on――seizing the moment, I beheaded two with a single strike, then used the returning blade to cut through the waist of the remaining wolf――all while fully utilizing [Appraisal] to locate the Wolf Commander. As long as I take down their leader, the rest will scatter.

As the battle continued, I quickly found the Wolf Commander. Fighting in an open area had its advantages for me――but.

“One… isn’t enough!?”

Five Wolf Commanders――not only were they attacking from multiple directions, but they were clearly using their past experience to try and kill me. This was the first time I’d faced such a large number of S-rank monsters.

“Damn it, guess I have no choice…”

The pack of Wolf Commanders inched closer, closing the distance.

I raised my mithril sword into a high stance.
