The Peerless Kobold - Chapter 49
Her father reached for the weapon on his waist as he ran past his daughter, who was coming towards him.
“Eh?”
“Gua, garuh!” (Hey, watch it!)
From their perspective, it seemed like Liz was being chased by a bunch of macho kobolds. As the screams of the evacuees were heard from behind, a roar rang out as if to drown it out.
“Uoooooooooo!!”
The slender, black-haired, and delicate looking cat-eared man vigorously took a big step forward as he pulled the blade from the scabbard and pointed his saber at us.
“Guruoh!?” (Uoo!?)
*clash*
I managed to somehow make an abrupt stop and leaned my body backward as I blocked the attack with my short war hammer. At the same time, I moved my right foot forward and kicked my opponent in the stomach.
“Gahah!?”
The delicate-looking man who had indiscriminately fired a series of slash attacks at me jumped back and maintained a stance to mitigate the impact he received from my block.
Furthermore, the cat kin warrior who rushed in as a follow-up confronted Dagger, who, while looking for a slip in her defense, readied the buckler[1] on his left hand and pulled back the sword on his right hand and tipped it down… and from there, it seemed like he was trying to parry Dagger’s attack and then follow up with a sudden upward slash attack.
“Garuukuon!” (As if I’d let you!)
【Activated: Leap Enhancement】
Dagger, who got the better of him, crouched low and leaped forward, and delivered a full-body kick to her opponent who crossed his arms to block the attack!
“Naah!? Guuu!!”
“Wuonh!!” (Take this!!)
He bent backward, unable to withstand the attack, and my sister quickly sent a right uppercut to his jaw from close range and the cat kin warrior stumbled back with a groan.
Meanwhile, the spear-wielding cat kin warrior who was a little behind sped up and unhesitatingly rushed towards the similarly spear-carrying kobold, but…
“Ruaku auooh!!” (You’re not fast enough!!)
The goblin spear in Lancer’s hand knocked away the cat person’s iron spear and caused it to miss its mark as the tip of the spear stabbed into the ground, and the opponent, unable to resist the inertia of the assault, followed it.
“Uwah!? Gaah!”
Without missing a beat, Lancer kicked his oddly thrust-out chin with her white, furry legs, and sent the cat man flying, knocking him out cold.
And so, under the setting sun, facing the four of us were the delicate, black-haired cat kin warrior, the unconscious cat kin spearman, and the cat kin warrior who glared at Dagger as he rubbed his bruised cheek while holding up his shield……
As the screams of the other cat people behind them grew louder and the other warriors who just came from patrolling the perimeter appeared one-by-one, Liz finally raised her voice.
“Hey, Dad! What the hell are you doing!?”
Surprisingly, the one who Liz had been calling her father since earlier turned out to be the delicate-looking cat person. Well, he just looked young, but he might actually be quite old.
