Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

"No, you know, waltz? No matter how much I like hunting, n--"

Ghhhhhhhh!!

"Ah! Already! I love hunting!

Zubaba!

The hunter ran through the town, a battlefield full of monsters, with two pairs of daggers in both hands. Every time she waves her arms, she turns into one more, one more, and just a lump of meat.

"Taaaaaaaaa!!

Spa pan!!

The appearance is exactly like that of a demon god. A whirlwind in human form just passed through the gap of the monster, and the path of a bright red blood tide was created.

Still, there was no sign of a decrease in the number of monsters. Even though the number of monsters was originally high, 80% of the monsters injured by the hunter were automatically recovered and moved again.

Looking around town to see if there were any wounded soldiers or people on the spot, and checking the outcome of the battle, the hunters finally realize that their actions are in vain.

"(Kh! I don't know what you're talking about! Is slashing healing you? Shouldn't it be slashing? Then there's only poison... I don't want to use it very much because the part where I can't eat comes out... just because I don't feel like eating these guys is good)"

The hunter who made that decision bounced up to the roof of the building without a sound... And there he took out his bow, his arrow, and a vial of poison.

As soon as that happens, Waltz contacts me. Apparently, they were observing the hunter's movements from the sky.

"Ah, hunter, can you use your bow?!

"Ah, I'm a hunter, so I'll use it. Birds, wyburns, no bows to drop, huh?

Sure... But if you're a hunter, you'll be happy enough to drop the birds with just a dagger.

"Hahaha! Don't be ridiculous. Waltz. That's... natural, right?" Sparkle

"I see... (I'm just kidding, but I can do it... well, I don't think I've ever actually seen you hunting before...)"

And when Waltz shows a stunning reaction, something moves towards the hunter. However, we are not ready to shoot the bow.

"Hmm? What is this..."

The vial I took out of the bag —— that is, the poison bottle -- I think I had something to think about.

"I don't remember putting this in..."

Though not used in normal hunting, she always carried the same bottle of poison, assuming it would be used in the case. Therefore, the label and lid of the bottle should have had a small scratch on it that rubbed against other tools... The vial that the hunter took out of the bag was an unfamiliar one with a poisonous red dot mark on it.

Cortex answered the hunter's question as he watched the war from the sky.

Ah, eh ~, that vial was given to me by me. I thought there might be times like this, so please don't hesitate to use it. "

"What, Cortex got it in... So, what's in it?

As the label on that bottle says, it's like poison ~? Just put a little bit on the tip of the arrow and shoot it with one thought. "

"I see....."

However, please don't drop it on your hands or feet even if you make a mistake ~? Your hands and feet will be gone ~

"... okay. Be careful (is it so poisonous? No, Cortex put it in. I guess it's more intense than what I use for hunting...)"

With that in mind, the hunter opens a bottle with a red lid. At that time, she seems to have a strong bad smell from inside the bottle, but that's not true... The contents of the bottle are odorless. I didn't feel anything particularly vaporizing.

"(Is this really poison? Well, where it sticks, it certainly seems poisonous...)"

What was in the bottle was a colorless, clear springy liquid. The poison that hunters usually use is dark blue, which can be said to be almost black... From that point of view, it still didn't look like poison.

But because Cortex is poisonous, the hunter decided to believe it. The hunter pointed an arrow at the prey, taking care not to get the poison out of his hands.

The first thing she noticed was the giant shell tortoise, a turtle-shaped monster with a large body that seemed to be heavily retarded. Once it's pulled into the armor, it's a monster that can't be done with a blade... Dealing damage to the head before pulling it back is a common countermeasure.

"(It would be better to try shooting him. Oh, my God, they're hurting me!)" Bunn!

The hunter threw an arrow as usual. But think after you shoot the arrow.

"(Ah, was this seen by the waltzes? Oh, shit! Show me what's really cool--)"

... you can't show me. Whether or not the Hunter's thoughts reach such a conclusion, but the arrows released, as she thought, hit the weakest part of the Giant Sheltertus -

* Giggle *... dogoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!

--Giant Sheltotus exploded and scattered from the inside.
