Although the skill was blocked, the heat from [Explosion] damaged the imp, and it could be seen that its skin was burned and inflamed.

Nevertheless, it was still far from being a fatal wound, so [Explosion] alone wasn’t enough to defeat it.

“I will finish with this! [Vortex Fire].”

I fired my strongest skill at the imp from a few meters away.

Baaam.

[Vortex Fire] directly hit the imp. The imp went rolling on the ground after being sent flying by the impact.

“It went well.”

I was able to make good use of the experience from the previous battle.

I felt that the reason why I was able to control the battle as I had planned was because I understood the abilities of the imps and their combat patterns.

Since I succeeded in defeating the imp, I looked at Aoi, who was fighting on the right side ahead of me. She was still engaged in the battle against the myrmecoleon, so I immediately joined the battle.

“[Ice Javelin]. Sorry for the wait, Aoi. Let’s fight together.”

“Thank you very much. Rin-kun, that monster spits out corrosive fluid from its mouth. The attack range is also quite wide, so take care to not get too close.”

“Understood.”

Corrosive fluid, huh…… Indeed, when I looked carefully at the surroundings, there were several spots on the ground that had unnaturally dissolved.

If you were to be hit by the corrosive fluid that could even melt asphalt, you definitely wouldn’t be able to deal with it easily.

If it somehow hit your face, it would be a great disaster.

That being the case, my only option was to keep a distance and defeat it using skills.

“[Lightning], how about that?”

I tried to see the myrmecoleon’s reaction by using a different type of skill from Aoi.

“Rin-kun, that monster’s body is covered with an exoskeleton like an ant. Maybe because of that, it seems to have a high skill resistance. Moreover, it also spits out corrosive fluid from the mouth. It is really troublesome.”

“I will draw its attention. So, Aoi, you go around behind it and target the back of its head.”

“I understand, Rin-kun. Also, please be careful.”

If it is hard to face the opponent head-on, strike the part where its defense is weak from behind.

While keeping my distance, I stood in front of the myrmecoleon and started activating my skills.

“I am here. Come over here if you dare. [Wind Cutter] [Explosion] [Ice Javelin].”

I launched my skills one after another.

The myrmecoleon evaded my skills with unexpectedly agile movements. But, my role was to draw the enemy’s attention and get Aoi enough time to go around behind the enemy.

I activated my skills regardless.

“Hey, you can’t look away. [Wind Cutter] [Ice Javelin].”

Timed with my skill activations, the myrmecoleon spat out some bluish fluid that looked corrosive.

The moment the ice javelin touched the fluid spat out of its mouth, the ice javelin vanished in an instant.

That corrosive fluid… It can even dissolve the skill attacks!?

Is that the reason why Aoi couldn’t defeat it head-on?
