“Glidedance Blade!”

I gave it everything I had from the get-go and unleashed the most powerful skill I was currently capable of. There was no time to test the waters. As I swung my sword, numerous invisible blades shot out of its arc and launched at the skeleton king.

I just hope this’ll do the trick, I thought.

Buh-buh-buh-buh-bam!

The echoing sound let me know that my attacks had hit their target. The impact made a haze rise from the ground, obscuring my vision.

Did I beat it, or only damage it? I gripped my sword warily, observing the situation.

However...

“Damn!” As soon as the haze cleared, a giant body twice the size of a normal skeleton sprang out like a cannonball.

Its target...is me. I’m glad it’s not going after the other three. I can take its attack. It’ll swing its sword down like before, and...

But looking again, I saw that the sword’s surface was glossed with a thin layer of mana.

Better not let this one hit me.

I managed to dodge the strike, and the black skeleton’s blade plunged into the ground. The spot instantaneously froze over, making crystalline blossoms of ice.

“It’s a magic sword!”

These weapons were a type of magic tool that could unleash special attacks by channeling mana into them. It was widely known that even the weaker ones were twice as expensive as regular weapons. And this skeleton’s magic sword seemed like a remarkably powerful one.

If I’d blocked, I’d probably have frozen over. That was a close call.

But it seemed that someone didn’t intend to give me a moment’s rest.

“Your back’s wide open!” Glydel called out.

He must have been sure that he had the upper hand, or he was simply trying to startle me. I wasn’t sure which, but even without turning around, I could sense a clod of mana headed straight for me. I took evasive action as soon as I found solid footing, watching a fireball pass through where I’d just been. This was unmistakably the magic of the mage’s guild leader.

The way things are going, we might get backed into a corner. Foreseeing this, I signaled to Cath with my gaze. I could’ve done it with Mataza or Liber too, but she knew me best after all the time we’d been together. As expected, she immediately understood my intention. She approached Glydel, her presence masked by her small size.

“Ho ho, let’s see how long you can last!” Glydel gloated, unaware of the small monster which had come up from behind him.

“Meow!”

Cath stretched out her front paw and forcefully smacked Glydel’s neck—a kitty punch from her <Catfight> skill.

“Ungh!”

I would be insulting a lot of people if I said this was typical of mages, but it seemed that Glydel wasn’t very good at close-combat. He was unable to counter, and Cath’s strike hit him. That single blow knocked him unconscious, and he collapsed on the spot. I’d instructed Cath via eye contact to avoid killing him if possible, so I appreciated that she’d followed through.

It went without saying that this wasn’t out of mercy.
