"... hey, it was a strange man who did that at all. Not only is he cool in front of that humane species, but he even seems happy somewhere."
Uhm, roaring Eve.
"But now we know why we decide that humane species attacks can't reach this far. But then the safety of this one was only secured. Unless we can figure out a way to take him down, we can't move from here either."
Eve's words are good.
I look in the back room where I stayed last night.
We can't expect any other escape route.
There were no hidden doors in that room.
There was just something behind the room that looked like an altar.
Maybe this ruin has no more role than sacrifice.
So it's unrealistic to go back inside and look for another escape route.
"Do we all live together in that stinking room for a while?
I said it like a joke.
Eve makes my ears pick.
"Mm? Does that mean waiting for the humane species to leave?
"... even after a long war, the food problem seems to work out."
Food sent to the leather bag.
Once a day.
We all share that.
Long-term survival there may be possible.
"I'm not going to, though. I don't care if that bastard dies on his own while he's relaxing."
I'm not talking about a vengeful opponent to Eve.
So I'll blur it out here.
Sellas, gently clamped aside for nervousness, raised his hand modestly.
"Um, what about the matching moves with the example Lord Pigimaru?
"Pi"
Gnocchi
The protruding piggy circle faces out of the robe.
I gently stroked the tip.
"Piyu ~"
"Even if you use the combined moves as they were during the Knights of the Black Dragon or the Battle of Asynt - maybe you lose speed. They'll knock it all off."
Those two wars also contained elements of surprise.
On the other hand, this current situation has no element of its unintended strike.
It was also unlikely that it would be possible to paralyze the tentacle attack.
If the tentacles are to be part of a humane species, the paralysis reaches far enough in range.
You can release your skills to match your approaching tentacles for an attack.
but the ”return” of the tentacles is unusual and fast.
Hypervelocity hits and away, so to speak.
The tentacles fled out of range earlier than I finished paralysing.
The velocity drops guzzly just before it is stored in the mouth of the sewing surface.
No more state abnormal skills will arrive by then......
The opponent moves faster than finishing the skill name of the activation condition.
This place was experiencing the same problems as soul eating.
That's where the neck was then, too.
The ”speed loss” I said just now included that.
The point is,
"Opponent, no gap"
Yes, we need to make a gap first.
Cellas doing white hands to her mouth with a strange look.
"Mmm... gap, is it..."
"Cellas."
"Huh? Yes."
"Will you prepare the bow and arrow?"
- I understand.
Cellas to start preparing bows and arrows.
Eve asked.
"Toka, are we releasing arrows at the humane species again?
"Sort of. But the next thing I know, I'm going somewhere else."
I point a little further away from the humane species.
Sellas, who was finished prepping, stepped forward and set up a bow.
"Do you want me to let you go over there?
"I'm not giving you a signal this time. I'll take care of the timing."
"Okay."
Cellas squeezing arrows.
…………
No matter how many times I look at it, it becomes a painting that I make just by shooting a bow.
Beautiful trunk, I mean.
I don't feel distortion.
Is that the hallmark of an elf that specializes in bows and arrows?
Or is it also a gift of undistorted character?
It is very different from me in a warped way.
The next moment,
Huh!
An arrow was released.
Zuuuuuuuuuuuu!
Again, the arrows were shattered and scattered.
"... heh"
When the humane species first crushed the arrows with tentacles, I was looking at the range.
And the position where the arrow was released as much as now specified out of his range.
How would you react if you took action there?
The humane species reacted to the flying arrows moved a little before crushing the arrows.
Doesn't seem to keep you seated on that spot.
And the other thing I wanted to make sure...
"All right, all right... hold on, you're moving."
the speed of movement.
We've never seen humans move.
Is that quick?
Are you blunt-footed?
I wanted to make sure of this.
So,
"It's going to be hard to take a fugitive proposal..."
Fast and fast for a big fat ass.
If it was super blunt-footed, I couldn't even get a plan to escape.
Alternatively, it would have been easier to take the hand to use the wax.
"That's a humane species… a spec that doesn't shame the name of the most fearful demon. Just..."
Something caught on when he moved.
”Something" that could be a thread to kill a humane species...
Put your hands on your mouth.
Move your fingers, crunchy.
What the fuck?
What's gotten into me?
Remember.
The moment the humane species moved and attacked...
"... - Right"
Ok.
I found it - a gap to follow.
Cellas looks at the tentacles of the inhumane species with a zip.
She murmured thoughtfully.
"Now, it's time to slap down the arrow... something's wrong, different from the first time..."
That's the famous princess knight.
I hear Sellas didn't miss ”that moment”.
"Cellas."
I said as I saw the tentacles going back to the mouth of the sewing surface.
"That intuition is right"
Pick up the pebble at your feet.
I throw the stone as it is and with momentum.
When the pebble hit the ground below the stairs, it jumped and fell just a little.
"Huh?"
Cellas inexplicably frowns.
"Now, don't move...?
The humane species did not even respond to the flying stones.
"Mmmm... Mmmm..."
And I'm just roaring creepy as ever.
"I see. Too far from the range of the tentacles, will it not respond"
None of this beats off with tentacles reflexively, he said.
Or whether there is a willingness to attack here.
He may be deciding if it moves after he identifies it.
Then this one needs to strike a hand that will make you judge it an "attack."
"Pigimaru"
"Pigi!"
I instructed Pigimaru, and I started prepping.
"Lord Toka? Again... do you use that power?
- Mississippi.
"Surely you can't win if you do it with the same hands as you did with Civito or Asynt. It's just... I saw the human species move earlier and came up with one hand"
A hands-on attack also seems pointless to that humane opponent.
Therefore, this battle is determined by ultra-short battles.
- Mississippi.
If you can see the light of the winning muscle, you no longer need to spare any effort.
The division of the battle, just for a moment...
"Mm... I heard it from Cellas alone."
"Hmm? Speaking of which, is Eve the first to see this form of amalgamation"
"Ugh, um. Can we even call it a fusion of people and demons... well, this is the power that devastated that asint"
"Maybe it feels more like a" connection ”than a fusion. I think fusion is better."
- Mississippi.
All right.
Ready, ready.
"Cellas, ask for an arrow over there again"
"Again? Okay."
Cellus brightly removes the arrow from the arrow barrel placed on her shoulder.
I stopped by her ear,
"Outside range critical, can we go? I want him to think he's willing to attack us as much as possible."
Lurk your voice and listen.
For once, to be heard and not understood by the humane species.
Cellas answers hissohisso with his bow up.
"No problem. You just have to be willing, don't you? I'll take care of it."
As reliable as it can be.
After my signal, Sellas let go of the arrow again.
The place I let him aim is the same as earlier.
Slightly off the tentacle range of the humane species, to a critical position...
Sellas with the arrow released hacks.
Meanwhile - my attack, which I was getting ready for, was also underdeveloped.
"Pi?"
".............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
The first arrow was knocked off with a tentacle.
but it didn't respond to the second arrow.
Bastard,
I decided this didn't have to move, either.
Maybe I perceived this one measuring something.
Unlike the pebble earlier, it should have conveyed enough warfare......
I see.
That humane species, he's not even blunter than I thought.
"I mean..."
I looked back - with Slay, behind me.
"From here, we need an attack that deserves tentacles."
A ”real attack" not a fake.
I have no choice.
And that's when Slay walked over to Tokotoko.
"Pacqui ~"
Turn the crystal part of the magic supply towards me.
…………
This guy, no way......
You figured out what I was going to do?
"... Slay, I apologize first"
"Pacqui!"
It was a voice of excitement.
Without dissatisfaction, without fright.
Huh, and.
The laughter spilled out unexpectedly.
In this phase, how dare you.
Thankfully, the liver sits still......
There's only trust in Slay's eyes.
That's absolute trust in me.
…………
I remember a little chest pain, but now I just have to rely on Slay.
I turned around.
"Selas, Eve, from now on, I 'm--"
"Toka."
Eve grabbed my shoulder.
"That role, let me take it"
He figured out what I was thinking as soon as possible.
Eve walks around his neck outside the ruins.
"In a half-breed deceiver, he will no longer move"
"... good guess"
"Hehe, this is because I was once called the” strongest ”bloodfighter in Monroe. And..."
Eve sees Slay.
"I treat horses better than that."
That's an irrefutable fact.
"... it's dangerous."
"Pfft - no matter, it's above my knowledge. And you know it. It's better to concentrate on one hand, but the odds of winning increase."
Phew, exhale.
"Okay."
Slay, Eve.
Readiness, it seems.
Connect with Pigimaru again, deep (...) ku (...) ru (...).
- Missi, Miki, Pici -
You can't lose these two here.
Absolutely.
"Slay, Eve"
With an oath, say.
I'll make up my mind.
Begin the magic feed to Slay.
Special.
Must (...) not (...), kill (...) su (...).

Against the humane species, the offensive begins.
