Disciple of Immortal
Lesson 5: Heketo, King of Shrimp
I'll check my belongings.
Mysterious apples...... and possibly three curable red potions and dots, and a magic bag where you can put them in.
I unfortunately can't take a sword that looks kind of awesome, so I leave it.
And the skills that had been given to me… The Low Crore Language seemed to work fine in my dialogue with Renaele.
Then… "Status Check" seemed to be observable from the skill of possession to each parameter when used against itself, but apparently only levels, HP, and MP could be seen for use with others.
My life was too close to me to afford to be discussing it then, but apparently it's the limit to seeing the information to that extent.
It is the limit to extrapolate the strength of a slender enemy.
"Ma... this is all I have, I'll do it. Find items while successfully outnumbering your enemies... and find ways to kill them, regardless of my level."
I speak up and think.
We were talking about a variety of items here.
There's got to be some way to take out the outside enemy, regardless of the owner's power.
And if I can defeat the whole thing... the level and the dots will increase dramatically, and I will be able to resist demons somewhat too.
I don't know if I can do that.
But Nialotope wouldn't have thought I'd be able to get a healing item in contact with Renaele at least.
Connecting lives and gaining experience is a great advantage.
I'll do it, I just have to do it.
- Five minutes later, I was captured by a frog monster.
The frog's monster had a blue translucent color and was about five meters long.
There were eyeballs all over his body, six legs, apart from which his tentacles were finally stretched out from around his body.
From the center of her back, the half of a woman with pale skin is stretched out.

I was a frog monster... a tentacle of heketo, raised high in the ceiling.
While I was checking Heketo's status, I was wondering if this number could only be confirmed to 9999, but apparently I felt strange relief when I realized that it could be displayed even in five digits.
"Because it's better to let them have fear and then eat them... I won't kill them easily... Let's melt it from the edge of our arms and eat it...... Glad to be one with you."
The woman's half laughs.
An eyeball-coated frog attached below was drooling from a thick blue-white tongue painted on the warts.
It's over... I'm really dying this time...
My hands and feet dissolve in various places.
Ouch. Hot rather than painful.
But I didn't have the leeway to just scream and sue about it.
"Brittle, brittle... but my mucus is powerfully acidic, and has the same power as high healing magic? Because I would never reduce my HP to less than one. Rest assured... you will remain selfless until you dissolve into the brain marrow. What do you say, it's getting scarier than that?
At that time...... I could see Lunaere flying from the edge of my own sight as it melted, holding the long sword I had just given up.
"You are an impeccable guest... which is the 16th floor of the Junction Magic" The Great Vortex Mirror Water Cage (Kalubdis) "
A magic formation unfolded around Heketo, and suddenly the water appeared covering the perimeter hemispherally.
"A stream of water isolated this space... A little magic, but this won't allow any of us to enter this space. It's a rare meal... you taste it, eat it, kill it..."
A cut runs into the water stream and explodes to raise the splash.
The Great Vortex Mirror Cage (Kalubdis) collapsed.
On the other side, there was a Lunaere with a sword waved.
"You're only trying to interrupt me! You're unforgiving, little Rich girl......!
The face of the Heketo woman turned to a ghostly face, looking back at Renaele.
Before an exasperating heketo, Renaele quietly unloaded his long sword.
"What are you thinking? I'm offended, now I'm reconciling..."
"It's over."
With that word of Renaele, a vertical line ran on Heketo's body.
Mucus leaks out from between.
"Impossible... Are you telling me you slashed my thick body surface for every" Great Vortex Mirror Cage (Calubdis) "on the absolute wall? Stupid, thousands of hours of living shrimp queen doomed here......!
Heketo's body swayed and collapsed on the spot.
My body is dropped to the ground with digestive fluid.
I thought this shock would kill me if I was bad, but Renaele moved down and caught me.
Renaele, who showered his digestive fluids all over his body because he helped me, was silent and stiff for a while with me in his arms.
... Renaele's faceless face looked just a little nasty.
After this... I had my body regenerated again with Renaele's magic, Healing Retrograde, and managed to gain my life.
"Thanks again and again...... it was a really dangerous place"
I bow my head as I go into the ground.
"Not thank you... what are you doing? To see how things went a bit...... I thought I'd give it a look even where I was suffering and chase after it, I didn't think I was about to throw out my sword and Aunt Shrimp was killing me. If it wasn't for the prey type of demon, you'd be dead by now, wouldn't you? Are you stupid?
Renaele says quickly.
It's faceless, but it still conveys me somewhat angry.
"I didn't pull through..."
"I can't pull through... I just poked him gently"
Lunaere wants you to understand that you are a fool.
Normal people can't turn that frog into two pieces with a single sword.
"So why didn't you call me at a time when I wasn't going to pull through? Were you confident you could beat Heketo with a round waist? It looked a lot different for me..."
"It was something I wasn't at the time I tried to pull through... Honestly, I was wondering if it would help if you could help me out a little bit more... but, you know, I was wondering if I could get eaten if I did you a very bad favor and I was in a bad mood."
"Nothing. Rich doesn't eat humans. I'll be angry."
"Yes, no, I'm so sorry! I don't know anything!
Thinking that I might have said a lot of rude things... Renaele was blinking her eyes and touching her fingers in her own mouth.
"No, but you also have that..."
Ya, I knew you'd eat it.
When I pulled myself back slightly, Renaele shook her shoulder tingly and opened her eyes slightly wider.
"Because I'm not."
... Renaele has a small facial change... but I may be able to pick it up just a little bit.
"If you could have come down this far, you could have crawled up enough to get out on the ground with weapons and items. Don't be ridiculous, just go for the ground."
Lunaere gives me a long sword.
The moment I received it and Renaele let go of the long sword... I lost the weight of the long sword and my arm was slapped down to the ground.
The long sword falls on the ground.
I had my elbow crushed and my jaw was crushed and bloodstained when I was finally slapped to the ground.
Lunaere looked down at me crawling to the ground with no expression.
Consciousness is retreating away….
"" Healing retrograde "
In my darkening vision, I heard Lunaere faintly activate the magic of regenerating my body for the third time.
