Fake 77: A Battle Under Snowy Sky

It has been almost an hour since we left home.
How much destruction have the monsters caused by now?

“Rin-kun, we are about to arrive.”

“Okay, I understand.”

It looks like we will arrive at the scene soon.
But, the problem is that we can’t see far ahead due to the extremely poor visibility caused by the snow blowing slightly violently, on top of the gloomy weather.

“I can’t see anything.”

“It seems so.
I never thought the snow would be this troubling.”

“Aoi, don’t stay far from me.
Since monsters can suddenly pop out, let’s advance by keeping a distance in which we can cover each other.”

“Yes, I understand.”

Of course, I don’t have any experience fighting in a snowy situation.
But I have some experience fighting in the rain, so I thought it wouldn’t be much different from that.
However, it seems I’ve been thinking lightly.
This is completely different.
Since it was impossible to confirm the positions and movements of the monsters, we advanced while readying ourselves to shoot our skills at a moment’s notice.

“Crunch, Crashh.”

As we kept advancing, we started to hear something like the sound of breaking something.

There are monsters.
I focused my attention forward; I could hear the sound but couldn’t see anything.

“Aoi, do you see anything?”

“No, I can only hear the sound……”

The sound was getting louder and louder, so there was no mistake that we were heading in the right direction.
Judging from the sound, it shouldn’t be that far, but we still can’t see anything.
We closed the distance by relying on sound.
And finally, we could see a faint silhouette moving.
It looked like a monster, but we were still unable to distinguish its species.
Only one is visible for now, but is this the only enemy we have to face this time?

“Aoi……”

“As far as I can see, there is only one enemy.
Although it is hard to get precise aiming, my [Explosion] should be able to cover some deviation.”

“Understood.
Then, let’s activate [Explosion] at the same time.”

“Got it.”

“ “[Explosion].” ”

We activated the skill by aiming at the faintly visible monster; an explosion spread out in our front, dying it in red.

“Did we do it?”

“Probably……”

The silhouette we could still see until a short while ago had disappeared, so I guess it was defeated.
Since we were able to defeat it in a single blow, I don’t think it is a high-ranked monster.
Anyway, I am glad that it went well.

Thinking so, I released the tension in my body.
As soon as I did that, a black shadow jumped into my field of vision.
Although I tried to activate my skill immediately, my reaction was delayed.

“Not on my watch! [Explosion].”

Before I could react, Aoi activated her skill toward the black shadow coming at me.
The blast interrupted the incoming black shadow, giving me enough time to get ready for another battle.

“[Lightning], get down, Aoi!”

Although I didn’t see clearly, it seemed that the enemy managed to avoid the direct hit from Aoi’s [Explosion].
So, I set my aim and fired my lightning attack at its approximate position.
Since the surroundings are moist, lightning-related skills should be getting an increase in power.
Still, I can’t let my guard down. (T/N: I don’t want to hear that from you.)
In the first place, I don’t know how many monsters are here.
