They grasped their weapons tightly as desperate yet determined expressions emerged on their faces, a single thought resonating in their minds.

\'Fifteen minutes! I will live if I can hold on for fifteen minutes!\'

As the party started to make moves to defend themselves, Shye heaved a sigh of relief, refocusing on the opponent in front of him.

The charging koala drew closer.

Raising its long right arm, the ripper koala swiped its claws diagonally, aiming to rip Shye apart into three pieces.

However, how could such a basic attack hit the ace representative of a champion academy?

Recognizing the swipe attack as nothing but an opening, Shye charged forth, kicking up clouds of dust as he disappeared from his original position, reappearing close to the koala by using his skill, [Dash Lv.4], to skillfully dodge the koala\'s attack and place himself in a position to counterattack at the same time.

\'Let\'s test how tough this thing is.\' he thought as he ferociously swung both greatswords downwards, aiming to sever the koala\'s extended right arm.

*SPURT*

As nimble and strong as the koala might be, it seems like it wasn\'t blessed with a quick reaction time, allowing both greatswords to slash deep into the koala\'s right arm, prompting purple blood to spurt out of the horrifying wound.

The larger Ripper Koala howled in agony as the synergizing elements of water and lightning momentarily paralyzed it, giving the loathsome ashen-haired adventurer in front of it ample time to retreat to safety.

Successfully making it through a momentary suffering, the koala\'s scarlet eyes locked onto Shye.

The darned thing was absolutely furious.

However, Shye wasn\'t intimidated. Not a single bit.

Why would he when the koala\'s dominant arm was limping, just a few muscle fibers away from completely separating from the rest of its body?

Although his [Power Slash Lv.4]-powered attack failed to cut through the creature\'s right arm completely, it achieved his desired result.

With one arm basically useless, the koala struggled.

Having just one arm for offense made it simple to anticipate the creature\'s assaults, enabling Shye to elegantly evade and dodge its subsequent attacks.

However, the koala already learned its lesson.

It refrained from extending its arms too far, wary of another lethal blow, thus opting for slightly less forceful yet more compact attacks.

Realizing that its partner was in trouble, the slightly smaller koala stopped attacking the gold-ranked adventurer party, promptly turning its attention towards Shye to help the larger koala who seemed to be losing the battle.

As he noticed a huge shadow charging at him from his peripheral vision, Shye turned his head to look.

\'Crap!\' Shye inwardly cursed upon recognition that the other Ripper Koala was out for him.

He swiftly jumped backward to reposition, ensuring that both Koalas would be in front of him as it would be hard for him to fight both should one manage to position itself behind him.

Gnashing his teeth as unpleasant memories resurfaced in his mind, Shye resolved to fight the two monstrous creatures by himself, not expecting any help from the adventurer party.

\'Come then, you damned koalas!\' Shye inwardly scowled, fiercely gazing at the koalas as he opted to take an aggressive approach instead of a defensive one—just as he had always done.

Without waiting for the charging koala to close the distance, he fiercely dashed towards the injured one, aiming to either incapacitate it completely or inflict severe wounds before fighting both of them in a two-versus-one.

There was no room for holding back.

Transparent and decaying mana wings materialized on Shye\'s back followed shortly by a hair-raising howl that reverberated across the savanna, capturing the attention of other predators.

However, since such a howl couldn\'t come from prey, the monstrous creatures who heard it opted to stay away.

As for the charging smaller koala whom Shye inflicted with a few stacks of [Fear], it was momentarily stunned, unsure whether to continue charging for a short single second.

Short as it may be, the slight hesitation was a difference maker, allowing Shye to arrive in front of the wounded koala, dodge its bite attack by jumping, and cleanly land one of his trump cards: [Draconian Roar Lv.2]

With yet another terrifying roar reverberating across the savanna, the few creatures who decided to check things out threw their instinctive plans out the window.

The draconian roar seemed way too dangerous after all.

As for the poor wounded Ripper Koala, it was trembling in fear.

Naturally, Shye, who knew what would happen should his roar hit its mark, was able to swiftly capitalize on the opening, cutting deep into the neck of the larger, one-armed koala.

Unfortunately, his strength attribute was still a bit lacking.

Since he was only able to cut through around two-thirds of the koala\'s neck, its head tilted to the side, threatening to fall off anytime soon.

Shockingly though, the koala…was still alive and was able to activate one more skill, [Ripper\'s Rage Lv. (N/A)], as it hovered around the edges of life and death, unsure of which side it was on.

The following bone-chilling scenes appeared as though they came straight out of a nightmare.

With its head harrowingly tilted to one side, the larger koala\'s eyes turned pitch black.

The fur in its body then fell off revealing its muscular marsupial physique which suddenly turned red—muscles bulging as though it would escape the confines of the scarlet skin at any given time.

Shortly after, the koala, who didn\'t know whether it was dead or alive, charged towards Shye, its tilted—almost decapitated head hung nearly upside down, shaking disturbingly as the koala\'s not-far-from-headless body unnervingly advanced towards him, making his hairs stand on end.
