A massive explosion erupted, shaking the midnight forest.
A flashing glare and sparks leaping with a threatening roar followed.
Nearby birds took flight all at once, fleeing into the sky.
Anne, of the E-rank mercenary group escorting the client Louise, checked the site where the explosion had just occurred.
The object called an "explosive potion" thrown by Louise had certainly caused a tremendous blast.
However, contrary to its momentum that seemed like it would tear dozens of Gnolls to pieces, it merely sent up impressive-looking embers without much actual power.
The flames scattered and vanished into the air, leaving nothing behind but a few scorch marks on the ground.
"…It's too weak!"
"What? Honestly, how could I carry anything stronger than this? What if it went off in my bag?"
The only silver lining was that the monsters were all intimidated by the formidable-looking explosion and drew back.
