「『拳撃・深海』!! 」
青黒い水とオーラを纏い拳打が放たれるのを、鉄球砲弾を『流星・暗色』で投擲し、相殺とまではいかなくとも勢いを殺したところで体術スキル『流水』にて無理やり受け流しますが............。
「っぐぅ! 」
結構痛いですよこれは......二の腕が削り取られましたね、直ぐに三田さんが回復してくれますが確認している余裕もありません。
上からの殴り付けを首を横に反らして躱し、半ば滑るように足首を裏から引っ掛け転ばします。
「むぅん! 」
それをむしろ後方にバク転する形で利用して距離を取りながら蹴り込まれる。
それを寸前で躱しながら毒針と鉄球を投擲しますと、いくらかは迎撃されますが数本刺さります。
「『アンチドート』......むっ?! 解毒されない? 」
どうやら成功のようです。それは正確には毒ではなく薬ですからね、毒状態ですらありません。ポーションの肉体活性化作用を抽出して煮詰めた物で、常に筋肉が痙攣し疲労状態を継続させるものです。
「まだ隠し玉があったか......」
「さて......」
会話もそこそこに攻防が再開されます。短刀による振り下ろしをおそらくスキルで硬くした左拳で防がれるが、『溶断』によって半ばから断ち切る。
「ぬぅっ?!! 」
そのまま手首の返しで断ち切った断面に短刀を突き入れるが、咄嗟に腕を曲げられ肘までしか破壊できなかったうえに、逆の拳で胸を強かに打ち付けられる。
「ぐぷっ?! 」
寸前に後方に飛び衝撃を和らげるが、咳き込んでしまう。そこを見逃す彼ではなく、すぐ様衝撃と音を置き去りにして突っ込んでくるのを迎撃するべく構える。
下からの振り上げを受け流し、短刀の横薙ぎを首を捻ることで躱され、頬を薄く切るに留まる。
短刀の突きを逸らされ、振られる拳を躱し、水月への蹴り上げを防がれ、頭突きを腕をクロスして防ぐ............互いにまともな一撃は入れられていませんが、それでもHPがガリガリと削られていくのがわかります。
埒が明かないのでここで勝負に出ましょう............。
「ふぅ......」
一度呼吸を整え精神を統一し............一気に駆ける!!
「っ?! 」
自身に小さな針でドーピングを施し、一時的な超スピードを得ます。相手がまだ反応できてないのを確認し、そのまま短刀の柄で顎をかち上げ、姿勢を低くして足首を掴み回って遠心力を付けて投げ飛ばす。
そのまま追うように走り抜け、相手の背後から腰を蹴り飛ばしながらうなじ、肩、背中に毒針を刺しておく。
相手が崖際に倒れ込んだ好機を逃さないためにすぐ様追撃しましょう、短刀を顔の横で構えて『闇刃』で首を狙って―――――
「――――――舐めるなよっ!! 」
ロノウェさんの両腕の刺青が青白く輝き、残った右腕による正拳突きにより短刀ごと左手首から先が吹き飛ばされる。
「終わりだ、ここで死ね――――」
さらに輝きを増した腕に水を纏わせ、私の心臓目掛けて打ち込まれるが―――――
「死ぬのはあなたですよ――――――」
「―――――がぶぅっ?!! 」
――――――――ロノウェさんあなた、まともに短剣を扱ったことないでしょう?
「ごふっ! ............まさか自分の武器で殺られるとはな、だが」
「............一緒に死んでもらうぞ? 」
..................なるほど、すぐ後ろは崖、下は荒れる外海ですからね? 死なば諸共というやつですか............。
「死ぬならお一人でどうぞ」
「いいや、一緒に来てもらう」
腕を引こうとしますが全然離れませんね。物凄い握力で握られています............仕方ありません。
「......山田さん」
私が呼びかけると後方に飛んだはずの短刀がその場で浮き、こちらに向かって飛んでくる。そのまま短刀は私の残っていた右腕を切り飛ばす。
「なっ?! 」
「............では今度こそさよならです、とても楽しかったですよ」
身体が離れると同時にロノウェさんの腹を蹴り飛ばし、崖の下へと突き落とす。
「..................本当になんでもアリだな」
その最期の言葉を呟きながら、ロノウェさんは海へと落ちていきました。少しして着水の音が聞こえたのを確認し、その場に座り込みます。
右腕と左手を失ってなんとか勝てました......やはり現時点ではプレイヤーよりも特殊なNPCの方が強く、楽しめますね。今も三田さんたちが回復してくれてますが、強力な身体強化の代償に回復効率が体感十分の一程度に落ちていますね............。
「少し休んだらすぐに街に戻りますよ」
そう山田さんたちに告げ、しばし戦いの余韻に浸るのでした。
"<Deep Sea Fist>!!"
The punch emitted blue-blackish water aura and that was countered with an iron ball bomb <Dark Meteor>, but it was not enough to cancel the attack out, so to lessen the impact, I used the physical skill <Stream>.
"Ugh!"
This was quite painful... both of my arms were almost scraped off. It could be treated by Santa immediately, but I have no time for that.
I dodged the punch from above by moving my head to the side, I hooked his ankle mid-air to trip him.
"Mun!"
He took advantage of that and tried to place some distance between us by kicking me and making a back flip.
I avoided that by inches and tried to counterattack with poisonous needles and iron balls. Most were deflected but some were successful.
"<Antidote>... Ugh?! I can't nullify the poison?"
It seems to be a success. Well, to be precise, it's not poison but medicine, so he's not in the state of being poisoned. The potions' physical activation effects were drawn out and condensed such that it could cause muscle spasms and a continuous state of fatigue.
"So you had a wild card..."
"Well then..."
Enough of the conversation and let's continue with the attacks. I took the shortsword and tried to stab him, but he probably used skills to harden his left fist as defense. However, I used <Hot Severance> to cut through.
"Ugh?!!"
Just like that, I sliced his wrist with the shortsword, he immediately bent his arm so I could only destroy up to his elbow; he then used his other fist and struck my chest with great force.
"Gugh?!"
Moments before that, I jumped back and softened the impact but I ended up coughing from the pain. He did not miss that and immediately attacked me swiftly and I braced myself for that.
I received the swing from below and he avoided my shortsword's blade by twisting his neck to the side, leaving only a small cut on his cheek.
The thrust of the shortsword was deflected and I avoided his fist. I kicked his solar plexus with an upward kick but he dodged that. I crossed my arms to avoid his head-butt... Both of us were unable to land a decent blow towards each other, but even so our HPs were gradually declining.
Since the outcome's still undecided, let's put an end it soon...
"Fu..."
I gathered my breath again and stabilized my mind... it's time to finish him once and for all!!
"?!"
I doped myself with a small needle and gained temporary super speed. After confirming that the opponent could not react to me, I struck his chin with the pommel of the shortsword from below and lowered my posture before grabbing his ankles and throwing him off with centrifugal force.
I chased after him immediately and kicked his hips from the back while sticking poisonous needles into his shoulders and back.
I immediately continued the attack to keep the pressure on him. At this rhythm he'd either die to my damage, or by falling off the nearby cliff. I swung the shortsword towards his neck with the <Dark Blade> skill--
"---Don't look down on me!!"
The tattoos on Ronove's arms shone bluish-white and he used his remaining right arm to block my shortsword's blow and also tore my entire left wrist off.
"It's the end, you'll die here---"
To increase the light intensity, he poured water onto his arm before aiming straight for my heart next---
"You are the one who's going to die---"
"---Gah?!!"
Ronove probably hasn't dealt with daggers before. Even though he kept one in his belt, it was probably just for appearance's sake... You need to properly place them in your belt, otherwise you risk having it stolen by your opponent mid-battle and used directly against you... Like this. "It's my win." I twisted the dagger that was stuck in Ronove's heart as I talked to him.
"Gofu... To think that I'd be killed with my own weapon, but."
"... I'll have you die with me."
... I see, the cliff is right behind and there's the rough open sea below. He's the type to take others down when he's going to die huh...
"If you're going to die, go ahead and die alone."
"No, you are coming with me."
I tried to pull my hand, but it wouldn't budge. He's grabbing me with tremendous force... it cannot be helped it.
"... Yamada."
When I called, the shortsword which should have flown far from us, floated in the air and headed towards me. Then, it sliced my remaining right arm.
"What?!"
"... Goodbye for good this time. It was fun."
While separating from Ronove, I kicked his stomach, pushing him down the cliff.
"... Everything's really possible."
While muttering his last words, Ronove fell into the sea. After confirming the sounds of water splashes, I sat down on the spot.
I managed to win somehow by losing my right arm and left hand... It seems that at the moment, special NPCs are stronger compared to players, so I had fun. I will recover soon due to Santa's help, but because I used the physical reinforcement, the recovery efficiency has dropped to one-tenth of what it was...
"I'll take a short rest before returning to the streets."
I told Santa that and basked in the aftermath of the battle for a while.
