My Beloved Dog is the Strongest in Another World

I helped with the last part of the hunt

---

It would probably not be impossible for Phillip, Nicholas and me to work together to hunt down the Audhumbla, but it would definitely not be this easy.

And it was even more impressive, since she had not undergone any training.

“Ms. Delia! This way!”

“Mr. Takumi! Are you alright!?”

“I’m fine! So don’t hesitate!”

“Well, we might as well do something in the end.”

I shouted to Ms. Delia while waving my sword.

After realizing my intention, Ms. Delia chased it in my direction, but seemed worried.

Phillip and Nicholas sighed, but judging by the way they held their swords, they were enthusiastic about it.

I suppose they wanted to fight too… There had been no encounters during the trip to the village, so they might as well relieve some stress now.

“Nicholas and Takumi, take the left and right. I will meet it head on. Alright?”

“Understood.”

“Fine. But are you fine with it charging straight at you?”

“Bah, it’s quite slow now. Besides, you two prefer it this way, don’t you?”

“Well…I suppose.”

And so we nodded and took our positions.

After being chased by Ms. Delia and the wood cutters, the Audhumbla changed directions and came running towards us.

As Phillip said, it had been slowed down. Its charge was not even as fast as an orc’s now… It was no wonder, since all of its legs were wounded.

“Here it come. Nicholas and Takumi. Match my moves.”

“Of course.”

“Understood.”

The Audhumbla seemed to hesitate once, but then it quickly started running again. Straight towards Phillip.

In the meantime, I held my sword as if it was a baseball bat. And I was going to hit a low ball. Well, I had never actually played baseball.

In any case, I then focused on striking so that I would hit its legs.

“Bumo! Bumo!”

The Audhumbla was so close now.

So close that I could hear its excited voice.

And even though it saw me and Nicholas, it continued to run towards Phillip.

Just a little more… Now!”

“Hyah!”

“Ahh!”

“Bumo!?”

At the same time as Nicholas, I swung my sword at the Audhumbla’s leg with all of my might.

While my swing didn’t land perfectly where I had intended, it still seemed to cut deeply into the bone.

I then quickly pulled it out so that I wouldn’t be pushed back.

“Bumo!”

“Phillip!”

“I know. You both did well! Hmmph!”

Apparently, Nicholas had also been successful, as he pulled out his sword.

The Audhumbla let out a cry and charged towards Phillip…but it was clear that it could barely run.

Phillip lept lightly in the air as it came crashing, and while holding his sword with two hands, he brought it down between the creature’s eyes.

“Bu…mo…”

And like that, the strength left it completely.
