Chapter 25 The Lesser Dragon’s Lair challenge with Emily, 2
”Ohhh!!!”
”O, oh…”
””…””
Two days after the discussion.
This time, the quest was led by the guild, and they were completely supported.
When it was time to unload and gear up, Emily shouted, followed by Alvin and Milis. Shinji and Renka were watching in silence.
”You’re not in high spirits, are you?”
”That’s right! Shinji, Renka!”
”Huh, Emily and Alvin are not a good combination for me.”
Shinji looked at the two hot-headed men with a pouting face and let out a sigh.
”Look, don’t be silly, let’s go!”
Renka tried to lead the way.
However, Emily turned to Shinji as she stepped further forward.
”Can I kill the monsters when we heading to the nest?”
”Ah… yes. Renka, let’s leave it to Emily. Alvin, since you have the opportunity, you should take a closer look. I hope you find something useful.”
Renka seemed to want to say something, but if it would be helpful to Alvin… she quietly backed off.
With Emily at the front of the group, followed by Alvin, Renka, and Milis, and Shinji at the back, it was decided to set off.

”Oh, Scorpion.”
Emily, who was running in the front, stopped, and everyone stopped behind her.
Everyone saw the
The monster also seems to recognize her and opens its scissors to threaten her.
”I’ll do it quickly.”
Emily, who carried a spiked iron club on her shoulder that was longer than her height, turned back to Shinji and looked at the scorpion. (*Note: Spiked iron club -> Kanabo)
Don! There was a heavy sound and vibration that shook the ground slightly.
In the blink of an eye, Emily, who should have been right in front of them, had moved several dozen meters away and was swinging her iron club in front of the giant scorpion.
A single flash of her powerful arm.
With a tremendous crushing sound, the scorpion was crushed.
It was an instant kill.
”I’m back ♡”
”Thanks for your hard work. Here’s your potion.”
The same sound was heard again and Emily came back to Shinji in an instant.
He handed the potion to Emily as if he was used to it.
In the meantime, Alvin and the others were silent.
”What was that…?”
”The application of self-strengthening magic… I guess. I’m using it in a somewhat unique way.”
Alvin muttered in disbelief at what had just happened.
Milis and Renka remain silent.
”Common self-strengthening magic is used to cover the entire body like we do, right? Originally, it is a magic that strengthens the whole body evenly, and if you want to run faster, you can generally add more magic power on the legs to increase the strengthening factors. But for me, When I just kicked the ground and accelerated, I just concentrating only on my legs, and cutting off all the strengthening except where I needed it.”
Shinji understood the theory, but he couldn’t put it into practice.
Shinji has asked Emily what she does with the recoil from that speed, and how she stops, which is sure to hurt the place where the strengthening was cut.
The answer was.
