Chapter 8
[GaaAaOOOoo!]
The dragon in front of me triumphantly roared .
It seems that I arrived too late .
In comparison to the dragon we are small, the dragon in front of us is at least 3 meters tall .
The middle of the dragon’s body seems to be covered by a rugged rock .
Since the moment I saw him I wanted to escape .
From his silhouette and footsteps one can tell that that guy clearly isn’t a normal existence .
While I was hiding myself I noticed that under one of his large feet was Miria, she and the other two adventurers have blood coming out of them .

Title Skills:
[Final Evolution: Lv--]
(TL/N The kanji’s for this one meant something like “The final evolution person”, and i thought to name it something like “One who reached the final evolution” but i decided just to left it as “Final Evolution” because it can be understood that he got it because he reached the final evolution, and because it’s shorter . )

So far because of its low level [Inspect Status] couldn’t display successfully from far away, even so this time I still could clearly understand this guy’s status .
Besides being twice my size, his status were thrice of mine .
When our eyes meet my I begin to be attacked by fear making my body tremble all over .
Did the thought that I would be able to win against such guy with just me and the three humans ever crossed my mind . There was no injury to be found in his strong-looking body .
His defense is high enough that a direct attack wouldn’t faze him .
[GaaAaOOOOOo!
It was a dull low cry but that same cry made the air inside the forest tremble, after that came the sound of silence
[Run]
[Away] [Please] [Run] [Away] [It\'s] [Impossible]
God’s Voice words are displayed in my head .
My brain felt as if it was shaking, making me nauseous .
No .
I don’t have any skill to beat this guy, none .
My best skill is [Dragon Punch], but against him it would be powerless .
From my experience, even if I hit him thirty times on the head with [Dragon Punch] I don’t think that that would bring him down, that’s how much of a difference there is between us .
Even if i were to hit him with wider swings, by my calculations he wouldn’t even need to use [Self Recovery] . In the first place just by taking in account the height difference I would not be able to aim for his head, also my MP is not enough to use [Dragon Punch] thirty times .
In short, my chances of winning against him is a perfect zero .
And to make matters worse, the three who I expected to serve as additional force were lying on the ground without consciousness .
Thanks to [Inspect Status] I can see that none of them are dead, their status show [Fainted - Bloodied] .
The one who protected me and who had a kind smile was also losing blood while lying on the ground expressionless .
Fortunately, the speed of the opponent is slow .
If I hit him in order to aggro him and get him away of the other three, that way I hope that they will be saved .
If that’s the case .
I remember my certain kill technique which consisted on using my agility and strength that I learned during my egg era .
I approach him with a run and then kick the ground hard .
Without change my hands and knees folded, making a circular shape .
Even when I evolved it’s still useful, the [Roll] skill .
I ambush the Little Rock Dragon and swing my arms .
Right, left, jump, I splendidly evade .
The ground made a sound as if breaking, but he didn’t care, didn’t even care about it .
Now i just simply focus on his movements .
Evade, evade, evade .
I look around while searching for a chance .
He attacks from both sides with his claws!
I use my strength to jump and with that I just barely evade his attack by a paper thin difference .
[Title Skill [Evasion King: Lv1] was acquired . ]
Here it is!
With all of my strength I tackle the rugged face of that monster .
When it hit his head, his forehead raised backwards thanks to the force .
After that I fall on to the ground and involuntarily begin to roll away from him .
It seems that it was a bit effective .
Come! follow me!
I felt an overwhelming killing intent on my back .
Immediately after that, the ground in the vicinity was overturned .
Iya, even I felt that . My vision is blurred because of all of the dust around . I only see the trees in front of me fall down .
What happened .
That probably was his [Earth Tremor] skill .
He must have hit the ground strongly in order to cause that .
Luckily I was far away, but those who were near would not be safe .
The area of effect of the skills seems to depend on the strength of his body, because it’s relatively low was that I was saved .
(Actually in this part the skill uses another set of kanji which aren\'t listed on his status so i linked it to Earth Tremor . 〖地鳴らし〗)
Because I fell to the ground the Little Rock Dragon comes at me at ease .
Damn it…
I can’t lift myself up, my body is heavy .
Iya, this guys is really negligent .
Rather, this is a good opportunity . For now I should obediently stay down .
The rock dragon approaches me, he opens his big mouth and brings it near me .
I aim inside open mouth and with all of my strength I throw a [Dragon Punch] .
As my fist enters his mouth it grazes one of his tusk opening a cut on it, but still the hit was a success .
As expected the inside of his mouth wasn’t rock .
[GugyaaAa!]
The Little Rock Dragon loudly cries while he steps back, seemingly in pain .
I did it, I did it .
That had to be fairly painful .
However, it’s still impossible for me to beat that guy .
I run towards the other three .
I check the old man’s status, but it’s already too late his HP is already 0 .
I can’t think of anything for a moment, however I get away from the old man .
Next I find Douz .
With my claws I cut open his chest plate and from it blood pours out .
And because of [Earth Tremor] it seems that one of the trees that fell down crushed his legs .
I try to lift the tree with my hand, but I wasn’t able to .
With only me it’s impossible .
ShuuUu, a sound as if water evaporating is heard .
I look turn my head to look at the source of the sound, and I see that there is smoke coming out from the mouth of the Little Rock Dragon .
My instinct tells me that that must be his [Self Recovery] .
The attack that I risked my life on was recovered just like that .
That’s unreasonable .
That’s stupidly strong, Is that really just a [Little] rock dragon?
In what way is that a rock dragon .
I immediately use [Roll] to run away, I find Miria who had fallen in a remote location .
Her body was about to be swallowed into the broken ground, I found her too late .
I take her out by grabbing her by the neck with my mouth, since my body was too small to carry her on my back .
And then I run with all of my power .
I run through the forest with all of my strength .
I’m still able to heard the sound of the humans being crushed, but still I never turn my head back .
