Chapter 266 Part 2
After several battles with the Tyrannosaurus, we finally encountered it.
Today’s ruler of the sky.
Quetzalcoatlus Lv.2
Demon Enemy Target Active
Battle Position: In the air
I feel like I’ve heard of this somewhere.
But there’s no time to think about it.
It’s a little bigger than a Pteranodon.
Its ferocious appearance is also conspicuous, but its beak is amazing.
Its head is also rather large and its neck is long, but it doesn’t look humorous.
Its intimidating power is ruining everything.
What should I do about this?
Of course, I’m going to intercept it.
As usual, Gravity Prison is fundamental.
It’s fundamental.
It is fundamental.
That should be working, but it keeps flying?
Well at least it’s better that it’s flying low now.
I’ll aim for his wings, drop him to the ground, and finish him off.
That ended it, but this thing is also tough.
It can’t even be compared to a Pteranodon.
I checked with Call Monsters, and this guy seems to be the least common.
That’s why I think we should ignore it.
After all, no item dropped.
Let’s hurry on.
What time is it?
It’s 11:40 a.m.
There was clearly a suspicious place there.
It was just a bunch of rocks lying around.
In the plain covered with scattered trees, it’s the only spot that stands out.
The rocks were quite large and obstructed my view.
Is it unsuitable for mounted combat on Zangetsu?
The foothold is too bad for charging.
Then there was a place where the rocks were piled up.
Suspicious.
I mean, there are already spirits floating on the rocks.
Let’s retreat for now.
Let’s have lunch first.
I’ll deploy an Instant Portal and have lunch.
I’ll recall Zangetsu and summon Bunraku.
I’ll have him cook up some of the Ravenous Dinosaur Meat we got.
But anyways.
What should we do about the formation?
Probably, or rather, definitely, we are going to fight dinosaurs.
But I don’t know.
What will we be fighting?
What could be scarier than a Tyrannosaurus?
Was there a dinosaur bigger than the Tyrannosaurus, something like a Spinosaurus?
Well, I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s something as big as a sphinx or a spinx.
I’ll have to think hard about what to do with the team.
The resulting dish was a Ravenous Dinosaur Meat steak, huh?
It was really good, with a good amount of pepper.
There was a nice amount of it, and I’m very satisfied.
Mm.
Let’s devour the dinosaur with this burning spirit!
Well then.
Let’s change the lineup.
Leaving Kyokuya behind, I recalled Volff, Helix, Obsidian, and Bunraku.
I summon Senki, Heather, Shishiku, and Raibun.
What’s the goal of this formation?
I tried to arrange it with Predator Fusion holders.
Heather is in the rear guard as a support role.
Hmm.
The vanguard is huge!
I could be in the rear guard, but that depends on the situation.
《Hope is here》
《But at the same time disaster as well is here》
《Blessed are those who directly face it, for they will never give up hope》
《Blessed are those who avoid it. For they will never know disaster》
《But know that both are unhappy》
The piles of rocks are collapsing.
Although the rocks that come tumbling down seem to disappear one by one.
Something quite large seems to be appearing.
What is it?
Tyrannosaurus Tyranno ???
Event Monster Enemy Target Active
Battle Location: Ground ???
Yeah.
It’s definitely a Tyrannosaurus.
But only one of them.
What’s the difference?
Its size.
No matter how you look at it, it’s more than twice as long.
Its weight is comparable to that of the Sphinx, Spinx, and their Elders.
It’s clear that this is no ordinary Tyrannosaurus.
A monster?
It’s truly a monster.
「True Practiced Spirit!」 「Bless!」 「Meditate!」
I use martial arts and select and execute spells.
But.
Did the demon that’s still far away, stop its legs?
What are you accumulating up?
What’s coming?
What came was an attack that could not be avoided.
It howled.
Cut off hearing in sensory settings?
Probably not worth it.
From just that, damage is coming.
It’s not a normal attack?
A sonic attack!?
You mean it’s not a normal dinosaur?
What about the damage?
Of course, spell enhancements have been applied.
And yet everyone took damage.
It’s not fatal.
But it can’t be ignored.
If they keep doing it, the damage will be incalculable.
Should I come at them head on?
No, that’s impossible for me.
If anyone could, it would only be that guy.
Senki.
But that wouldn’t make up for the size difference.
Fighting a Sphinx or a Spinx is one thing, but this is impossible.
What’s my weapon?
The Petrified Wood Staff.
But I hang it on my back and pull out the Lion Sage’s Foil at my waist in my right hand.
In my left hand is a Tokkosho.
I deploy a blade of ice.
Am I shooting for close combat from the start?
There’s no way!
「Pitfall!」
Let’s start with a classic.
Of course, since the Tyrannosaurus can jump, I’m half expecting it to do so.
But if I’m lucky, I might find an opening.
After all, there are rocks scattered all around.
Is it a hindrance?
No, we should take advantage of it.
We’re dealing with one opponent.
It would be nice if we could prepare an attack while keeping it in check.
As expected, the monster has come out from the bottom of the hole.
Not by jumping, no.
It just normally bites the edge of the hole, lifts its body, and climbs up by hooking its hind legs.
And then I knock it off.
The Shishiku, Kyokuya’s breath, and Raibun’s lightning strike all converge on the monster.
In addition to those, Heather’s rock clumps hit the monster’s head.
I repeatedly jab the foil into its legs.
And then Senki strikes the leg of the monster and knocks it down to the bottom of the hole.
But.
It immediately climbs up to the edge of the hole.
What a guy.
But as long as we keep up this offense and defense, do we have the advantage?
For the umpteenth time, he’s in a poisoned state.
I’m stacking Defense Fall, Offense Fall, and Delay on him.
His defense, offense, and agility should be decreasing.
And yet, I don’t feel like the threat is diminishing.
Our side has also been enhanced with Enchanted Ice.
And the steadily becoming staple Magma Field, Acid Shower.
And Instant Simoon.
We’ve been able to cut down the HP bar.
But it’s not good.
In order to knock it into the bottom of the hole, we need to get in close combat.
Taking some damage was inevitable.
The demon’s front legs, or rather arms.
They’re poor when compared to the back legs, but still large.
Its claws could do quite a bit of damage.
Not just me.
Everyone except Heather.
Still, I want to take advantage of the terrain.
The monster’s HP bar had still fallen by less than 20%.
I have a feeling this is going to be a long battle.
Regenerate on the whole vanguard.
Pitfall also lost its effect halfway through, but I used it again.
The burden on Senki is no joke.
It’s basically throwing boulders that roll by occasionally.
Of course, I’m using recovery spells, but.
I’m not getting away unscathed either.
In fact, Foil had been knocked away.
It took me a while, but I took out my Snow Beast Mace and hit him with it.
It still won’t go down.
When the HP bar was finally half full, some of the effects of the spells I had cast on everyone were about to run out.
Even for a long term battle, there are limits!
We somehow continued the battle while somehow adding new spells.
What’s time?
I can’t worry about that right now!
The demon bellowed.
This is the third time.
We don’t seem to get frightened by this, but the roar seems to have a certain effect.
It randomly cancels out the effects of spells.
What a pain in the ass!
While I’m dealing with it, I can’t fire offensive spells.
And the efficiency of cutting down its HP falls in accordance.
If I don’t make some sort of breakthrough am I in trouble?
But that breakthrough has arrived.
The Snow Beast Mace’s attack that I unleashed.
It hit the monster directly in the jaw, but it seems to have been a critical hit.
Did it faint?
No, it was clearly in a state of intoxication.
At the same time, the effect of Pitfall ran out.
Is this an opportunity?
We surround him at once and go in for a combined attack.
Don’t worry about the damage, just push through.
The Shishiku, Kyokuya, and Raibun are all eating away at the various parts of the demon.
What about me?
I aim for the head.
Another blow, a mace to the chin, and I climbed onto the overturned monster’s head.
My aim is: the eyes.
The overturned demon still couldn’t move.
It has big eyes!
I strike it with my mace first, and then thrust the Tokkosho into it.
Did it stop moving?
It stopped, didn’t it?
The demon doesn’t seem to be trying to roar.
Oh.
It seems that we’ve finished it off, huh?
《At the end of despair is hope》
《At the same time, there are further disasters》
《Face the truth of the conflict》
《To be troubled is also the fate of man》
《Know that the path to liberation is a long one》
Hm.
It looks like we got him.
The monster’s corpse disappears.
Did we really finish it?
I still can’t believe it.
But.
I’ve been beaten up pretty badly too, you know?
《S4W2 Map’s Area Portal cleared!》
《You have gained 8 Bonus Points. You currently have a total of 24 Bonus Points.》

《Please add 1 point to a desired stat》
As expected, she’ll level up, right?
No, I’d be done if she hadn’t!

How’s Heather doing?
Has she grown a bit taller, again?
No, more importantly her MP bar is depleted.
It’s already at 20%.
I don’t think we can push her any further.
Alright.
For now, I’ll let her lick the honey.
Hmm?
I feel something staring at me.
What is it?
Shishiku, Kyokuya, and Raibun are standing around me, giving me a heated stare.
Only Senki seems to be playing with a rock, lifting it up and throwing it.
What’s with the eyes?
No, I know.
I know, but wait.
Until Heather finishes licking the honey from the spoon in my hand, please wait!
I- I know.
I’ll give you Ravenous Dinosaur Meat!
Yeah.
It just dropped today and all, so I’m sure it’s still fresh and tasty.
