Chapter 48
“Crap――”
Three seconds――[Power Strike] deactivated.
With my current strength, I couldn’t pull the sword free.
And then, a sharp killing intent from behind――the last one.
The Wolf Commander’s claws were incomparably stronger than a regular wolf’s.
One wrong move, and I could be done for.
All hope was lost.
Bracing myself for the end, I tried to pull the sword from the dead beast――when suddenly.
――Gyaaaah!
The Wolf Commander let out a scream.
In that instant, the mithril sword was freed from its jaws――I turned around.
“You!”
The one who delivered the blow to the Wolf Commander――was none other than Myu.
It must have been a powerful strike, as the Wolf Commander foamed at the mouth and collapsed. I thrust my mithril sword deep into its throat.
――Gurgle, grrrrrrr
All the Wolf Commanders were dead.
It was a close call.
“Are you hurt?”
From the way Myu happily bounced around, it didn’t seem to have taken any damage.
“I told you… to hide…”
If it weren’t for it, I would’ve been dead for sure.
“…Thanks.”
No wolves were left. I sheathed my mithril sword and picked up Myu.
“You’re truly my partner…”
I muttered those words. Then――.
“Aibo!”
It spoke!
