Chapter 122 – How to Save the Race.
“This way. Boo.”
As Inaba continued to lead the way with a weak voice, Anis was whispering and talking with his colleagues.
“Do you look listless?”
“It’s worth it. I was openly fooled.”
“The water spirit was also truly evil.”
Even saying that the water spirit’s behavior was shocking would be an understatement. What is it like to openly have a relationship with a boy, and to use that as an example to show how the chief was manipulated is behavior that a monster or demon would show.
“This is definitely not the way of thinking of a normal spirit.”
As Tiaran muttered, their voices stopped. When he looked up, he could see them all looking at him.
“Hmm? Why are you drawing it?”
“… No, what should I say? Does Tiaran know the way of thinking of a normal spirit?”
Yes, because he spoke as if he knew what a normal spirit was like. When Krusha came forward and asked, Tiaran shrugged his shoulders.
“You said you lived with an elf when you were young, right?”
Certainly, it would not be unreasonable for him to know about the ecology of spirits. Elves have excellent magical abilities and also have a very high affinity with natural objects, so they often interact with spirits.
“Well, the name is obviously the name of an idiot.”
“Wait a minute. Then there’s something wrong with the water spirit here…!”
Lucia was talking about something unexpected.
-Quagaga River!!!
“What?!”
“What is happening all of a sudden?!”
A loud noise echoed through the forest and the ground shook as if there had been an earthquake. When they turned their heads to check the place where the roar came from, they saw Inaba, who was ahead of them, looking there blankly.
“Inaba, is there something wrong?”
“That’s our village! Boom!!”
“Wait a minute.”
Anis tried to catch Inaba, but as if she was not a rabbit beast for nothing, she ran toward the village at high speed, crossing the obstacles in the forest before Anis could reach her.
“Uh, what should I do? If I do this, there will be someone to guide me…”
“I don’t need it anymore.”
“Yes?”
When Lucia muttered with a troubled expression, Tiaran simply denied it.
“Hmm, hmmm.”
“What are you doing lying down there?”
Therefore, when I looked at him, I saw Tiaran lying on the ground and making strange noises. They don’t seem to care about the humus piled up on the ground and small bugs crawling around.
“I’m listening to the sound of the earth!”
“Are all ears like that?”
“There’s something strange about Tiaran. Maybe…”
Since the people who raised him were elves, their guess that they were the cause of his misfortune was getting closer and closer to certainty. Tiaran, whether he knew it or not, quickly got up.
“Is the location around 22.5 km northwest? Inaba is about 5 km away. It’s fast, isn’t it?”
“What are you talking about…”
There was no time for Lucia to ask what he was talking about.
“We can’t be late either! Newbie! Catch the newbie!”
“Yes.”
“Eh?! Eh?! Why are you doing this all of a sudden?!”
Because Anis captured Lucia without a single question about Tiaran’s words.
“From now on, we will fly in the sky!”
“The sky?”
As Tiaran spoke while lifting Krusha, she tilted her head as if she still didn’t understand the situation.
“The leader is a hotgu!”
“Me?”
“The tiger goes first and turns off the aggro!”
“Now, wait! Why is it me?!”
“You are the strongest out of all of them.”
That part was also acknowledged by Luciana Anis. Despite her small size and delicate appearance, Krusha had an unusually tough side.
‘Thanks to this, I complain that I roll the most during training.’
As for Tia Ran, it was not a secret that he liked her more because he liked her the most. In any case, it is true that since he is the youngest among the party members, he has many shortcomings.
“The next batter is a newbie and a rookie! The newbie receives the newbie in front and the rookie attacks with all his might towards the target!”
“I understand.”
Anise nodded her head without thinking, but Lucia did not. Aren’t there fundamental problems with this operation in the first place?
“No, no no!!! Flying! How?! We don’t have any tools, let alone markers!”
Flying was an extremely rare skill without special tools or associated markers. Even if Lucia was Macacia, it was impossible for her to fly in the sky unless she was related to Maca.
“Tsk, tsk, the problem is that our newbie thinks too much. In times like this, you don’t understand with your head. You feel with your body.”
“No matter how cool you try to gloss over it, it’s useless!!!”
“See it for yourself and think about it!”
“Det?”
However, Lucia understood the next scene. Tiaran lifted her arm that was holding her Krusha back.
-Paang!
“Ew!?!”
It was thrown straight towards the northwest sky.
“Oh, the angle is good! I think we can arrive safely at that level!”
“Seo, can you really fly?”
I had to understand.
“Newbie! Come on!”
“Oh, no! Anis! You can’t go!!”
Lucia struggled as best she could. To be honest, she thought that this was the first time in her life that she had struggled with all her might.
“I’m sorry, Lucia.”
“Eh.”
“I don’t listen to orders from bitches.”
“You, you! Still?!”
But she had no time to think anymore.
“Oops! Prepare for artillery fire! Confirm!”
Tiaran was already ready to throw Anise and Lucia in each of her hands toward the sky.
“Check the shells!”
“Huh?!”
“Kya!?”
“Clear!”
Clap! Until I finished checking by lightly hitting their buttocks.
“Shelling?! Shelling!? Even treating it like a shell?!”
Lucia tried her best again, but she couldn’t escape Anise’s power, and there was no way she could escape Tiaran.
“Two shots in succession! Launch shelling!!”
“I hate it!!!! I will definitely blame you when I die!!!”
“Don’t worry! Adventurers don’t die like this!”
What on earth does that have to do with adventurers!?! Lucia’s cry could not continue.
“Fire!!!”
“Caaaaahhhhh!
Before that, they had become two cannonballs and were flying away. Lucia screamed and closed her eyes as the wind blew.
“Huh?”
For some reason, she woke up to the feeling that the wind blowing towards her was strangely weak and not reaching her, and she realized that the sound of the wind blowing strong was not reaching her even though she could hear it.
“This couldn’t have been made by Krusha?!”
When she lowered her head to check, the small jewel embedded in her pendant was shining on her chest.
“You need a tool to block the wind? Why that?”
“Make it because you will need it someday. It will be useful if you make it according to the number of people in our party.”
It was a special weapon with a wind-blocking function that Krusha created despite being puzzled by Tiaran’s request and shared it with each of them.
‘I wondered why you made this!’
He had already been thinking about doing something like this someday. Lucia, who had regained her composure as the wind stopped reaching her, was able to check the surrounding situation.
“Anis and… Even Krusha?”
She had Anise flying in the sky beside her, but further in front was Crusha, who was thrown first. There was something more noticeable.
“What is that again?!”
“Cooooo!!!”
In the center of the forest, in a small clearing, a light-colored slime that looked almost like a large hill was destroying the forest by swinging tentacles protruding from its body.
Come to think of it, didn’t Tiaran say to attack with all his might toward the target before Lucia is thrown?
“You actually noticed that on the street?!”
“Aaaaah! What on earth did you teach Tiaran, you bastards!?!”
As if responding to Lucia’s astonishment, Crusha, who was flying ahead, also took out her mace in her haste and prepared herself. Meanwhile, Lucia was preparing to use Maka as the giant slime was getting closer by the minute, but she realized that the slime was attacking something.
“They are rabbit beastmen.”
When Anis noticed and spoke first, she also saw the sight of figures wearing rabbit ears running away in panic from under the tentacles wielded by the slime.
“Could it be that water spirit?!”
“Lucia, think about it later. Save yourself first.”
Even though I was still a spirit, I wondered if I would do something like this, but Tiaran’s advice came to mind when I heard the story of Anis who approached me.
“Ugh! Really! I’m being selfish! [Explementum]!”
What she used this time was a Maka that she was able to use after her hard training, and it was not a Maka that had a particularly direct attack ability. If we were to look at the type, should we call it a self-buff?
“Guooooo!!!”
Is it really some kind of spirit? Perhaps sensing Maka’s energy, the giant aqua slime that was attacking the rabbit beastmen raised its head and began extending numerous tentacles.
“Anis! Krusha!”
“Yes.”
“Even if you don’t say it, I know it!!”
It may seem simple and even slow, but you must not let your guard down.
‘It’s actually closer to shooting a huge amount of water!’
Unlike what was visible, the tentacle movement sensed by Lucia was shooting towards them at a very fast speed. Its power was too overwhelming to be considered simply a large slime.
