Fake 52: Vortex Fire

The next morning, the survivor terminal rang while I was eating breakfast.

“ “Bee~Bee~” ”

Unlike the usual ringtone, it was an evacuation alarm.

Furthermore, it was not only mine but also Aoi’s terminal that rang the same sound. So, the enemy was D-rank or higher.

“Aoi, I am going. This is a chance.”

“Understood. Since it is dangerous, I am coming with you too.”

“Alright. However, absolutely don’t approach the monster, and we’ll immediately run away if it gets dangerous.”

“Fufuu, I know.”

We immediately finished our preparations and rushed our racing bicycles to the destination.

We arrived there soon because it was closer than we had expected. However, we seemed to have arrived earlier, and there wasn’t a single shadow of other survivors.

“Aoi, let’s wait by hiding so that we won’t get discovered by the monster.”

“Yes. Rin-kun……that’s probably the dragonet, the monster of C-rank.”

“C-rank!? Is there anyone who can beat it? In the first place, a dragonet is also a dragon, right? Except for some survivors, aren’t they raid targets?”

“No, it would be a different story if it was bigger, but that isn’t the case here. Although it can be called a dragon, it is small. However, when it comes to survivors who can defeat it, I am afraid there are only a few around here.”

I saw a C-rank monster for the first time.

Moreover, as small as it may be, it is still a dragon.

Although it seems small for a dragon, it is far bigger compared to a goblin.

“Nobody has come yet. Will that be alright?”

The dragonet started rampaging and was about to destroy the surrounding buildings.

“We can’t defeat it. We have no choice but to wait patiently.”

I understood what Aoi meant. It was just impossible for me, who was merely an F-rank, to face a C-rank monster.

Most likely, I would literally get insta-killed. It was just that I was worried about the surrounding damages.

Why won’t somebody come sooner? I, who could only keep looking, was starting to get impatient. It was then that I heard the sound of a bike coming from a distance.

Did somebody come here at last?

The sound of the bike was gradually getting closer and closer.

This sound, don’t tell me………

This was the sound of a bike I’d heard before.

A while later, I was able to see the familiar bike and the survivor who I’d seen before heading in our direction.

“Kamiki-san……”

Riding the bike, the person coming in our direction was Kamiki Hitoshi, the bearer of the overwhelming strong [Lightning] skill.

After gallantly passing in front of us with a motorcycle, he stopped the bike and got off.

“Fuu~ A dragonet, huh? It looks pretty agitated, but~ Well, that won’t be a problem~ I guess.”

While saying that, he casually walked toward the dragonet.

“Well then, although I just arrived here… Go to hell! [Lightning]”

The original [Lightning] skill that I saw in a long while emitted an amount of heat incomparable to my degraded [Lightning] and stuck down.

Now that I could use [Lightning], precisely because of that, I realized that this person was bad news.

Even in front of the C-rank dragonet, he kept his aloof composure. Just how strong is this person exactly?

“Ah~ It won’t die with one shot, huh? Even if it is rotten, it is still a dragon. As expected, its skin is thick. Then, I’ll end with this. [Vortex Fire]”

The next moment, Kamiki-san fired a mass of flames coiled by lightning, a skill called [Vortex Fire], instead of [Lightning].

Was that person a double skills-holder……?

When the flame thunder with overwhelming firepower directly hit the dragonet, the dragonet disappeared in an instant alongside the sound of the explosion.
