Chapter 55 – Ep.4 – One Pursuer, Two Fugitives
“Kheeng! You’re still numb…!”
Kaede, who had been sniffing and crying in succession,
When she finally calmed down, she opened her eyes again and looked around.
“They… They’re like bad people!”
Oh.
She growled, forgetting even the concept of her self, but she soon calmed down her voice while watching the other adventurers who were moaning and collapsing around.
“Big, big… What a disappointing attitude.”
No one particularly paid attention to Kaede, but anyway, she was conscious of others’ eyes on her and once again showed off her dignified figure as an S-class adventurer.
Stormy Kaede!
So she clears her mind again and sets out to pursue her.
The proud silver-maned wolf has already made a firm decision not to let go of the two criminals who are accused of all kinds of crimes.
Treason…?
Rebellion (disobeying orders)…?
Besides, theft? Or law? Order? Violation? Kaede, who had crumpled up their endorsement letter with very difficult words written in her jumbledly, crumpled it up and put it between her breastbones, took it out and unfolded it again.
“The heinous ones! But I already remembered all the smells, so I can’t escape!”
A tightly clenched fist!
A symbol of her fighting spirit soaring high into the sky!
“Let’s see! I, Kaede of the Gust, will condemn you!”
————
Kaede sniffed at her with her nose pressed against the ground.
Her tail is sharp because she is so focused.
“!!!”
Kaede found something!
The hairs sprout from her tail in that silver mane that is fluffy!
“This way!”
While chasing the body odors of the two women through her wonderful sense of smell, she swiftly pursues them at a speed worthy of the nickname of a gust of wind.
The beast never gets tired. Even if you’re tired, just take a short nap and you’ll recover.
Of course, not all beastmen are annoyingly strong and persistent like Kaede. She’s just a special case.
Normally, a beast person would be far ahead of others in terms of her physical abilities, but Kaede surpassed that limit.
The lively mana that seeped into her is always boiling with her passion.
She is strong
Strong, beautiful, yet noble? She is a wanderer.
I’m not sure why Sarah the Wanderer insists on her title, but she always presents herself as Sarah the Wanderer to her adventurers and her companions.
I guess he thinks that’s cool.
Elaborate,
Let’s look at her pursuit together again.
“You don’t take a break even for a moment! The dwarf already knows that if you keep going, you’ll surely get tired!”
Consistently sniffing at her and chasing her, she is full of confidence.
Knights and rogues are obviously very strong women,
As far as she goes, Kaede is also very confident.
You can spend an entire day running without sleep.
She chases after women with stronger stamina than children who ask adults to play with them.
The lonely wolf wandering knight will never let go of the woman!
However, the sun is setting and the moon is starting to stick its head out.
Kaede has a moment of doubt as the chase continues, crossing two small villages, a large forest, and a wide river.
‘That’s strange. After all, are those who made a name for themselves different? How can a human body run for so long…’
It seems that they have been running for almost five hours, but the knights and thieves are still running without a sign of fatigue.
Kaede could feel it. Their body odor is gradually moving away from them at a steady pace.
A headwind is blowing.
The smell of knights and thieves is carried by the wind to Kaede.
“Sniff, Kreung…”
The smell conveyed this time is somewhat different.
A little darker, a little clearer…
‘You’re right! Tired at last! I ran very well for a human, but I can’t surpass this Kaede-sama!’
Kaede judged the thick smell to be [The two tired sinners slowing down and resting for a while], So she continued to chase.
“Kyaung… Kyaewung…”
However, I ran into a very small problem.
Didn’t the smell suddenly split into two and reach Kaede?
On the left, the smell is a bit more intense and realistic,
From the right side, a faint, faint smell emanates.
‘There’s no way this can’t happen… What’s the matter! How could God’s trick!’
Kaede stops chasing for a moment and squats in her seat, rolling her head. Her tail scans the ground very slowly… Very slowly during her serious thoughts.
A prudent wolf!
The best chaser ever!
S-class adventurer Kaede of the storm, you are always the best!
If you use your smart brain well, you will be able to figure out the answer!
“Sniff, kreung-“
She sniffed her nose a few times, then jumped up from her seat and grinned.
That said, you’ve got a very good answer!
“Let’s run fast and go to both of you!”
…Yes.
A very good judgment that doesn’t miss anything…!
First of all, it would be wiser to chase the clear smell coming from the left, but it wouldn’t be too bad to figure out the truth of the smell coming from the right!
She wanted to draw her best conclusions and act right away… But then she sat back down and began to ponder, wagging her tail.
“Where should I go first? Hmm…”
Careful considerations that follow again.
I’m already wasting 10 extra minutes because of that prudence,
Kaede doesn’t care at all.
“Right! That’s it!”
Finally, she solves her troubles again and stands up!
‘My tail is pointing to the right, so let’s go to the right first!’
I don’t know what the logic was, but she headed towards the smell coming from the right direction anyway.
Unfortunately, that feeble logic completely alienated her from Neva and Philmarck.
Ironically, she met a new relationship…
———————————–
“…”
“…”
Chi-Chi trudges silently, and Delrin follows her.
Since sending Arwen back to her hometown, the two have been accompanying each other.
However, a strange current flows between the two.
Awkward, yet depressing, and sagging atmosphere…
“Where are you going?”
Delrin asks.
He can’t get away from her because he’s riding on her Chi-Chi’s broom now.
There must have been an option to stay in Arwen’s village, but if Neva and Philmarck invaded while staying like that, wouldn’t it be possible to harm the good villagers?
So, Delrin eventually chose to leave with Chichi. Of course, the save point was already made near [Arwenne Village Entrance].
“I don’t know either.”
There is no energy in Chi Chi’s voice.
She is a woman who lost the meaning of her own life overnight, so she deserves it.
Exhausted, depressed,
I wonder what the hell did I do to live so carelessly until now,
I’m worried about what to do with my life now
Still, she won’t let go of Delrin…
“Just. Let’s go to another city for now.”
“But why don’t you fly with a broom and walk?”
“I want to take a walk.”
“…Well, yes.”
Delrin looks at Chi-Chi’s weak back for a moment.
She doesn’t have her good feelings for her, but I pity her to see her so weak.
“You can just teach me how to ride a broomstick and leave. You don’t want to be with me anymore anyway.
“…”
Delrin’s work with Arwen made her determined.
A selfless decision to devote oneself to wandering around, rather than men in other worlds going through the same hardships as he did!
Maybe another world summoning perk? If it’s the same, her own body seems to be strong enough to attract the attention of other women and to receive their sexual desire.
So let her go through her world based on her sturdiness (or brilliance).
It’s better for me to suffer. Rather than living with the trauma for the rest of your life because other people suffered…
What, and in fact,
He is getting used to the pleasures of women.
The mental rejection she felt at first had long since been washed away by repeated rapes and gangbangs,
Now I can take care of myself even in the situation where I am being beaten by them.
In a way, it could be called a kind of [Growth].
Or you could call it a [Defense mechanism] To stay sane…
“But you should know one thing. It was not me who was at fault, but Chi-Chi and the other witches. I just did what I had to do. I’ve said everything, so now do as you please.”
“I don’t mean to bully you. I don’t want to bully you. I’m just worried about what to do next…”
Chi-Chi has no intention of giving up on Delrin, the only one who lifts her up in her empty void.
Chichi can no longer ignore the strange feelings she has for him.
However, there is one very big problem in following that feeling and accompanying Delrin.
If he was with the other witches, he could have protected Delrin from Philmarck and Neva, but now he is alone.
No matter how well you fight, you won’t be able to avoid death or similar injuries.
Neva and Philmarck are not easy opponents.
You cannot stop them alone.
“…It’s a big deal. Really.”
She doesn’t want to die
That said, she doesn’t want to give up on Delrin either.
The empty life before…
Unlike the life at that time when I was not afraid of death and just lived as it was,
The empty life now wants to survive somehow.
Losing her original life goal, Chi-Chi’s new life goal is,
It’s just a man riding a broomstick.
There was no desire to survive in a life that was always absorbed in magic,
A bizarre desire to survive is included in her heart for her manly love.
“…!”
Is it because of the desire to survive?
Chi-Chi widens her eyes and puts his broom in her hand again.
“Aww!”
Because of that, Delrin knocked her on the buttocks for a moment and made her fall to the ground.
Now there is no time to pay her attention to such mild pain.
She warns of the sharp gaze felt in the dark grass.
“Make your appearance. Now.”
Its strong presence, like that of a beast, is comparable to Philmarck and Neva.
Chi-Chi instinctively blocks Delrin’s way and comes into her battle stance. In front of her, three or four blue magic circles are drawn showing off their perfect figure…
“I’ll just count to three. One. Two…”
Just one second before countless mana crystals poured out from there!
“Stop it. Small men do not harm you. I always hope to fight against the strong, but I don’t think this is the time to fight.”
Along with a fairly polite voice, a long tail and perky ears poked out from the grass.
“But I’m curious. Could you explain why I can smell the sinners I’m chasing?”
