(From MC's perspective)
This time, when the snake monster dashed towards me, I used a black dagger to counter attack. And when the snake monster inched closer towards me, it opened its fangs to bite me.
Seeing that, I moved at full speed. When the monster was inches away from me, I side stepped enough to avoid its frontal attack. At the same time, I gripped the dagger and made a vertical slash at the snake.
CLANG small metallic sound resonated when the blade touched the scales.
Seeing that, my expression hardened further. How am I supposed to fight this thing? The next second, I moved away from the spot without further ado.
Only after a certain distance from the snake monster, I turn back. Then I stared at the black dagger in my hands. I realised the problem lay with my dagger. It was a basic-quality product.
