From The Strongest Job of Dragon Knight, To The Beginner Job Carrier, Somehow, The Heroes are Depending on Me - Volume 2 Chapter 27
Volume 2 Chapter 27: To Observe The Observer
Realizing that my spear was controlled by someone else, I timidly let go of it.
And looking up at Axel’s face asked in a shaking voice.
「E-ehm, Axel-san? W-what was that, right now… Did you move my spear?」
Being asked, Axel lowered his gaze over here and nodded.
「Yes. It’s narrow here. I just judged that instead of pulling out a replacement weapon from the transportation bag, it would be faster and more certain to do it this way. It would be better than allowing for additional injuries……Sorry for using your weapon without permission.」
「N-no, I don’t mind you using my weapon, but…」

「Really? That’s nice. Well, then I will be using it for just a few seconds more, okay?」
Then, the moment Axel finished speaking—
「Hyaa?!」
The spear in front of me moved at a tremendous speed.
And in a split second, surrounding Jackalopes were turned to shreds.
……What, what is this speed……?
A burst of precise attacks, each one of which brings complete annihilation.
Despite him using the same weapon as me, the speed and destructive power are in a completely different league.
To the extent that I began to wonder how the weapon can withstand such fierce movements, despite being the one most familiar with it.
And it seems that I wasn’t the only one to think that—
「W-what, what is this absurd strength and technique…」
Just a few meters away, George was looking at him with wide-open eyes.
「This is crazy… I can’t see a damn thing…」
Uttering those words under his breath, he was sitting with his knees on the ground, looking, as if hypnotized. However, in response to him—
「Hey hey, George, snap out of it. The fellow sleeping over there is still alive.」
「Eh?」
With those words, Axel hit with the spearhead near George. Laying there was the Jackalope that George had defeated by crushing its head, but—
「GEEE…!」
「Wha?!」
The wrecked Jackalope that should have been dead, jumped in response to the approaching spear. And with its sharp claws tried to attack George’s foot, who was nearby, but—
「Told you. Their toughness is dangerous.」
Before that, Axel’s spear split the Jackalope in two.
「Wha… Eh? I surely crushed its head…?!」
While swinging the spear, Axel replied to George’s surprised remark.
「Because Jackalopes have a retractable horn, the skull is thick. A little crack won’t take it down. They might faint from the concussion, but with their brutal nature, as soon as they wake up they will look for a chance to attack again. The one who was struck on the head with the spear by Cecile was also alive and tried to attack me.」
「H-How can it be…! A-Axel-san, were you injured?!」
「Nah, I finished it off over there, so there is no problem. If you are aware of it and keep your guard it’s not hard to defend. For monsters like this, that don’t turn into magic stones after death, it’s important to confirm their death or escape, otherwise, it might turn into a problem. —— And, with this, the fight is over.」
「Eh…」
For a moment I doubted the words Axel delivered with a sigh but soon realized that that was the truth.
「Ah… E-everyone is… Already dead…?」
「In such a hard to move place, he did it all while talking at the same time…」
In such a short amount of time, Axel has defeated all of the monsters that were surrounding us.
