Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

So, the skills that I had saved all this time will be the important ones in this situation.

[Shadow dive]

I vanished and freed myself from the restraints of these black, Mana-sucking hands.

Going back, I prepared my weapons for the scariest fight I would have to do in my life.

My whole life... because the chances of me dying here were 90%.

The highest odds of death I had faced in my time, I had been to this god-forsaken hell.

This was torture in itself and aside from me, if that slime with dead Mana radiating hands had touched anyone, it would heavily poison them and they would almost be on the verge of death.

It was a difficult thing, and I had to do anything in my power to at least save my life.

This was a dark forest, and I had two dark-related skills.

Though it can easily see my disguise and perceive me, it can\'t do anything in my shadow dive form.

I dived into the shadows and can travel some distance so I had a pleasant situation before me.

The other skill, [Nightfall]. It was an (Orange) ranked skill that I got after killing a (Night hound), a darkness-type dog monster with deer-like horns.

It was an easy opponent against my light arrows, so I could get this special skill.

============

[Nightfall]

-Create a dome of darkness around your 30-meter radius.

-You will enter a realm of assimilation and mix with these shadows.

(Mana: 30)

[Time: 1 minute.]

============

This was also a skill that saved me many times in this forest of darkness from creatures like that crying spirit I had seen the first time entered this place.

Now, I had nine skills, including the skill stone I just got.

That protection skill that creates barriers was also something I needed in this situation.

If I could, I was desperate to just run away from this death-guaranteeing place at this very moment.

But this bastard\'s skill, those bloody spears, was something that worked as a border, too.

Just like my skills, I can check others\' skill information to some extent with appraisal so, this was a bigger threat than I was reacting.

This slime was as strong as Gaar the Orc in terms of pure strength.

And this was still in the normal state.

If I\'m destined to die today and this shit creature goes berserk, I was sure I will die any moment I looked away.

The plane was simple now.

Just keep dodging his attack and try to get as far away from this place as possible.

Though he was definitely going to chase me, I will have more space to fire my arrows here.

And, the most important thing...

Destroy his nucleus at all costs… if I can.

Nothing will hurt this partial immortal piece of shit but, it will die in an instant if I destroy its core.

This was something that was showing its giant red body like he was proud of it, and that black core in the chest area was something that clearly entered my eyes.

Though fake, it was a focal point to find the constantly moving core inside his body.

This was a difficult one and, by its movement patterns, I might figure out his death point.

Well, all those things had to be done during my time I run and make distance with this monster.

"Here goes my potential life."

-Squishhhhhh!

The slime that was now a monster had a disgusting voice and, just hearing that one made me noxious.

This was something like his trait and knowing all this after the preparation was a bad thing.

Bad... very bad.

"Shit." I cursed and took out a glass bottle with yellow liquid from my dimensional storage.

This little thing will at least block that stomach-crunching feeling from his voice.

============

[Motion potion-(Beginner)]

-A potion created with light and water attribute flowers with adequate Mana.

-Helps to maintain the stability of internal fluids.

============

I was almost at a beginner level in potion making, something that I had close to no profound knowledge about.

Well, there were many useless potions in my white crack that came into existence during my boredom and the kick of doing something.

I… should remember them later if I successfully survive this monstrosity.

Looking at this creature with a disgusted look, I took out my bow as I exited the shadow on the opposite side of him.

His perception was acute and as I predicted, the moment I came out, a red spick of blood… shot towards that very place.

[Quickstep]

This time, I was alright, and this fight was in my favor in one thing at the very least.

His intelligence was almost as high as mine, but I had a better understanding and thinking ability than this mass of flesh and dead Mana energy.

This creature was just not going to go down by normal means and I was not going to die by his hands.

This was the very being I was admiring.

A creature that I saw for the first time in this great forest and then... the creature that I consider beautiful, turned into a monster that coveted my body more than anything right now.

I knew why it was doing that and, once again, I remembered just how precious my body is.

Every beast was after this small body with hunger oozing out of their eyes.

Well, sure, I had a well-built, toned, muscular body with abs.

This was definitely a body other girls would fall for but, beasts like them had no stake in this.

I wasn\'t into them, not even a little.

If I do decide to give this body up, I will do so after using every bit of my strength.

Not for \'the one\' I might find in the future. That will be different.

If I do survive this fight and live to tell the tales to her, that is.

-Swish!

[Quickstep]

-Swish!

[Quickstep]

-Swish!

[Quickstep]

And so, the cycle continued, and I dodged the blood-red spicks coming out of thin air or ground or directly from him.

The creature before me was almost a ten-meter tall demonic beast and the best way to deal with this one would naturally be through the light elemental attacks.

But... I can\'t just rely on those to pierce that thick body of blood and reach its core.

I needed power. Pure power that can pierce through thick trees or smooth bodies like this creature.

Now, this was the time I use the resources I gained to get away from this chick that wanted my sweet body.

I\'m not saying these words in the wrong way, so please, try to understand this little kid who was facing death itself.

-Squishhhhhh!

Once again, that disgusting voice.

This was the horn of his debut as a newborn demonic beast.

Why was this creature so hell-bent on killing me when I admired its beauty?

Was I the fool here, or did the world itself have some kind of plot to force me in?
