Chapter 39. Boss Battle

It’s just as I had planned.

My [Rock Bullet] hit the goblin shaman, and Kodachi-san’s [Wind Slash] hit the hobgoblin.

And Yuzuki’s fire-attribute range attack magic [Burn Blaze] enveloped all the monsters.

After the wide-area fire ceased, the only monster left was the boss, the goblin ‘ord.

The other four small fry: goblins, hobgoblins, goblin archers, and goblin shamans: were neatly extinguished and turned into magic stones.

“Woohoo! Perfect!”

“Not yet. Here we go! Don’t let your guard down, Hotaru-chan!”

“I know, I know!”

“Kodachi-san, we’re going to stop the road together!”

“Yes, sir!”

Kodachi-san and I hold weapons and shields in both hands and stand in front of the goblin lord.

The three weapons we hold are all infused with magical fire.

The [Fire Weapon] used by Yuzuki has the effect of increasing the attack power of our weapon.

Not only that, [Protection], [Quickness] effects are also applied to my and Kodachi-san’s bodies.

These are magic spells that increase defense and agility, respectively.

Everything has been done perfectly up to this point.

I quickly disposed of the troublesome small fry, and my reinforcement magic is now in full effect.

But we must not let our guard down.

From this point on, it is a pure contest of strength and power.

The monsters under its command are defeated, and it takes damage from the Burn Blaze, but the goblin lord does not stop.

Raising a huge sword as tall as it, it rushes toward Kodachi-san and me.

Despite its large size, it’s quite fast.

Putting aside Kodachi-san, who was originally a ghost of agility, after receiving the effect of [Quickness], it’s still agile over there.

“Damn..!”

I charge at the goblin lord, who comes at me with the force of a runaway car, with my long spear clad in flames.

But the lord evaded my attack with a quick sidestep that didn’t match its huge body, and without a moment’s pause, he swung his greatsword at me.

The speed of the sword was too fast for me to avoid.

I tried to block the blow with my bronze shield.

“What? Ugh..!”

I had blocked the attack, but the goblin lord’s great sword was too fast for me to avoid.

However, the goblin lord’s greatsword cut through the bronze shield, and even cut the Cuir Bouilli, and the [Protection] protection, leaving a deep wound on my torso.

The wound was not fatal, as I had defended myself with my shield.

However, if I were to be hit by a few more of the same attack, my damage would be too severe to stand.

“Kuh! It’s hard ……! ───Musou-san, are you all right!”

Taking advantage of the gap, Kodachi-san slashed at the goblin lord from its blind spot with two flame-covered daggers, Baserd, but of course, one attack was not enough to make a decisive blow.

The goblin lord, perhaps recognizing Kodachi-san as a greater threat, half-ignored me and swung its greatsword as if to sweep Kodachi-san.

Kodachi-san quickly backsteps to avoid it.

However, she didn’t have the usual leeway, and her evasion timing was paper-thin.

“I’m here too──[Fire Bolt]!”

Then came Yuzuki’s magic attack.

The fire magic hit the goblin lord and set him ablaze.

However, the flames quickly faded away, and the Goblin Lord looked at Yuzuki with a glint in her eye.

“Heh…! Don’t aim at us! If you get hit like that. You’ll be blown away in one hit!”

Yuzuki, like a cockroach, scurries away, but doesn’t make such a move, but stays where she is and cloaks her body with magic power to launch further magic attacks.

To use magic, you need to stay still for a certain period to increase the magic power, and you can’t use magic while running away.

“I won’t let it get to you, Hotaru-chan!”

Kodachi-san slashes at the goblin lord again.

There is a gurgling sound, and two daggers clad in flames cut through the goblin lord’s body from above its armor.

The single blow does not inflict fatal damage, but it must be a steady cut.

The goblin lord’s attention turns to Kodachi-san again, and it launches a furious attack.

Kodachi-san was able to survive the attack.

“Yuzuki! What’s its HP!”

I shouted to Yuzuki, who had [Monster Appraisal] while using [Earth Heal] on myself to heal my wounds.

“I can do it! I’m less than halfway there! ─ ─ [Fire Bolt]!”

Yuzuki’s second fire magic hits the goblin lord.

The goblin lord burning up with flames does not slow its attack on Kodachi-san.

“Kuh ……!”

Kodachi-san’s on the defensive, couldn’t resist, and jumped backward in a big leap.

But the goblin lord changed direction as if it had been waiting for it.

It rushed toward Yuzuki.

“Geez, is it coming?

“Shit….! Hotaru-chan!”

Kodachi-san rushes after him, but the timing is just too late.

Yuzuki herself also could not have escaped even if she escaped now.

“Huh, [Fire Bolt]!”

Yuzuki’s third fire magic hit the goblin lord.

But the lord’s momentum did not stop, and it swung its great sword down at Yuzuki, drowning out the flames that clung to its entire body.

“Yuzuki!”

The timing was just in time.

I was between him and the lord, protecting Yuzuki, and was catching the Goblin lord’s great sword blow with my shield.

But it was the same as before.

The goblin lord’s great sword cuts through the bronze shield and slices from my left shoulder to my right side over my defense.

“Ugh ……! But…!”

What was different from the previous time was that the spear I had thrust out also pierced the Goblin Lord’s torso.

That was the killing blow.

The goblin lord’s body staggered and fell to the ground.

Like the other monsters, its body turned into a black haze and disappeared, leaving only the magic stone in its wake.

“I won.”

I breathe heavily with relief.

It was a little silly, but I think it’s something like this because I made full use of even the tricks.

The goblin lord’s magic stone that fell to the ground was much larger than those of other monsters, about the size of a ping-pong ball.

I picked up the heavy stone and tucked it carefully into my pocket.

Then I healed my wound with [Earth Heal].

“I-I’m glad you’re safe. Senpai, what are you doing right now? Are you a hero!?

Yuzuki, who was behind me, made a complaint that I didn’t understand.

I turned toward Yuzuki, squatted in front of my kouhai who was on his buttocks and patted her head as usual.

“Are you okay, Yuzuki? I’m glad you’re okay.”

“Boom! What’s going on, senpai? Are you trying to make me fall in love with you?

“No, I’m not that kind of a guy.”

“Ugh…… well, that’s true, but… But thank you, senpai …….”

“You’re welcome.”

I patted Yuzuki’s head again.

My kouhai accepted it, narrowing her eyes.

Kodachi-san rushed over to me.

She seems to have picked up the magic stone from another monster.

“I’m sorry, I’m so inadequate that I made the goblin lord turn toward Hotaru-chan. ……”

“What are you talking about? You were the main wall and attacker and had the lion’s share of the action. If it wasn’t for that last blow, I would have ended up with nothing good to show for it.”

“Oh, no, that’s ……! If it wasn’t for Musou-san, I wouldn’t have been able to move so freely.

“You two are all about modesty, aren’t you? I’m going to act arrogant. Hotaru, you did a great job with [Burn Blaze] and [Fire Bolt] in a row! It’s as if we won because you were there. You should both be thankful.”

“You’re not as wrong as you say, which makes me angry.”

“Nheehee?”

Yuzuki smiles.

Seeing this, Kodachi-san and I let out a laugh as well.

And so we defeated the boss goblin lord of the 4th floor.

At the back of the large cave where the battle took place, there was a large door similar in shape to the entrance, but now it was open, pointing the way ahead.

We nodded to each other and continued toward the door.
