Isekai Taneuma

Boom boom and a loud wind chirp kept passing through my ear. An unusual number of silver flies flew endlessly across the square, and a large number of worms spilled from the belly of the viscerally removed corpse.

My stomach reacted to a strong strange smell like sticking my nose, and I almost blew out all the contents, but I managed to cope with it by picking my nose. I should have sniffed it many times before, but I was not used to the rotten smell of creatures. Feng and the others were utterly silent in front of a pile of built-in, tall cat carcasses.

Enchantment of the devil. The sun began to set in the western sky, dyeing the square red. The red was mixed with the red of blood, and looked terraced and glowing white. I wonder if the black lines that crawl around the ground show signs of dragging the body. Perhaps they were brought here after they were taken out of the built-in. Every corpse was distorted by the expression of anguish, and his eyes, which had lost light, stared into the air without warning.

They were kept on the ranch... and with the working cats, Feng went into the woods to make a request to exterminate the goblins. It was supposed to be the scene where the cats were fighting each other for their prey, an unjust catfight.

It was almost such that cat breeders compete for the number of ranchers they own, and wild cats each hunt goblins for the day's earnings (?) I imagined the scenery... but in the forest square where Feng and the others entered the forest shortly afterwards, there was a pile of corpses that had nothing to do with Merchen.

"Jaya!? I've seen him before! You're always mean to me....."

When one of the cats said so, the other cats also pointed out the pile of bodies, saying that they were all faces that they had seen. The number is roughly ten. Their voices tremble because even if they don't like each other, they only know their faces. If I made a mistake, this might have happened to me. The possible future makes you feel an unspeakable sense of oppression, like pressing a cold iron rod into your stomach.

"But why! Cats must be strong!?

Feng shouted impatiently. The cats are no less hunters than werewolves, according to the stories we've had before. No matter how bad the group behavior is, there is no way that this number can be done at once. Or are you saying that dangerous monsters inhabit this area so that we can do this?

"No, that's not true. If that's the case, the villagers will have been killed long ago. It's too close."

"Then who did this to you?

"I don't know. Anyway, we need to find the body first."

And Guillaume said so, and drew near to the mountain of corpses with his nose. Feng couldn't ignore the conversation before he shook it, and he didn't mind, but it followed him.

All the piles of carcasses piled up tall were intact. First, at a glance, the cause of death is a scar like being beaten with a powerful blunt instrument. Some corpses had their heads broken and their brains peeked through a slightly open wound. There were other signs of considerable pressure being exerted when the arm was bent in a strange direction or bent in a curved shape.

There were no other noticeable traumas, but what could never be ignored was that all the bodies had been torn from their stomachs and dragged out of their organs. None of the corpses seen appeared to have a longitudinal wound from the dovetail to the lower abdomen, from which the gastrointestinal tract was removed. I didn't feel like digging my hand into my body to investigate, but from the way my body was crushed, it seemed that my heart and lungs had been removed by penetrating the diaphragm.

There can't be any wildlife that does such a strange imitation. Obviously, people's hands have been added. But who has a reason to attack a cat who lives like this? I know someone who has a grudge against them.....

Looking back, the cats are losing their identity in shock. I didn't think they were doing such a terrible thing to me. Then who else would do such a thing?

"... speaking of which, this country is at war, right? You think a spy is infiltrating in an attempt to assassinate my grandfather?

"It may be possible, but why should we attack a wildcat? You can go directly to Leo's house."

I see. There's no way I'm going to stick my legs like this... so why do you have to pull out my guts and kill me like that... "

"That's right... hmm?

Guillaume, who reacted to Feng's words, suddenly forgot to pick his nose and braced himself. He had a serious look on his face and told him to be alone without looking at Feng.

"Hey, you... when do you always pull your guts out?

"Hah!? I've never imitated such a mess. Don't tell me you doubt me!?

"There's no way! Not really, but I think they're scattered in the woods. Whether you catch a deer, a bear, or an oanness."

Feng blinked his eyes. Of course, when you catch an animal, you take out its guts. Unlike the body's meat, the internal organs are perishable because they are packed with digestive fluids and things like E. coli. If you want the meat to last a little longer, you should take out your stomach and bowel, and if you don't eat it right away, throw away organs like your heart and liver....

Why does Guillaume suddenly hear such a thing...? When I thought so, a shivering chill ran down Feng's spine.

"... no way. Whoever did this is going to eat it!?

"I don't know, but at least I didn't want it to rot. If you think so, it wouldn't be unnatural for the bodies that have been slaughtered to be put together in one place."

"Speaking of unnatural, I've been wondering since I got into this square. There's too little weed here. It's like people are managing it...."

"Is there something based here?

"What is it?"

"I don't know."

Actually, that's not necessarily the case. But if this were some kind of nest, it might not have been a good idea to have a long conversation like this.

"Oniisan! Oniisan! I hear something!

At that time, the mani, who was staring at the interaction from afar, screamed with his big ears twitching. Looking back happily, the cats who had been so relieved that their fellow brethren had been attacked before also scratched their ears.

"... really! I hear something!" "Dosuhn, Dosuhn, footsteps?" "Even though it's still far away, it's so loud!" Should I run away?

As I listened to the noisy cats, I finally heard the sound in Feng's ear.

At first, it feels like you're even doing construction from a distance, and it's gradually... dong!... thump! It turned into a vibration as if the fireworks tournament had even begun... Eventually, I felt the noise of the dump car thrusting down the trees, approaching us in a straight line without hesitation... Shit... better run away... Feng felt intense anxiety.

Of course, everyone was in agreement, but it was too late. The nearby trees swayed without the wind, and Feng looked back. Then the huge shadow jumped into his eyes.

"Ghhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!

A huge creature with green skin appeared in front of her with a roaring ear. It was like a giant mountain with a backlight that I had never seen before.

Thoughts don't keep pace with completely unexpected events. Was Goblin this big? When I was thinking like other personnel, the giant body moved.

It swings up its arms in quick motion to split the giant body. The human, fat arm that seemed to be about the size of a man's torso, was stationary in the air, and was swinging down towards the feng in front of his eyes.

Feng was stunned by a sudden event and couldn't move right away.

"Asuka!!!

As soon as the voice called, as if it were natural from the beginning, the body jumped backwards on its own.

Giggle!! A slightly earless wind chirp passed by him, thump!! There was a sound echoing from the bottom of my stomach, and incredibly, the ground was shaking.

Soil stripped from the ground hits the bee and face like a machine gun jab. Whether the adrenaline was blowing out or the red vision dyed at sunset, it was moving slowly.

When Feng receives the rear body almost reflectively, he floats his body with only his arm in the course of a backward flight, and the moment he lands in one rotation, he pushes his arm forward.

"Fireball!!

and shouted.

But nothing happens where you scream. He's not a wizard, he's an Alchemist. I can't cast ancient spells if I can't use my magic tricks.

And yet, I made such an incredible move aggressively because the memories of my previous life made me do so.

Good job, VRMMO. When the ambush took place, it was a collaboration that was practiced many times to replace the front and rear. As evidence, Jeanne is now in a straight line where Feng has just stood.

"This OOOOOOOO!!!

Gyahhh!! The sound of hitting a metal stick made Jeanne's sword hit the monster's arm. After a sudden incident, it seemed that Jeanne had pointed the blade in the wrong direction and slapped it in the belly, but it seemed like it was enough.

"Gwaaaaaaaaaahhhh!!!

A monster took a heavy blow to his little hand, holding his wrist and pounding it. Just a little bit late.

"Fireball!!

Mary's chant echoed from behind, and the fireball flew straight towards the monster.

"Gyaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!

The upper body of the monster burns with the screaming of the demon. The magical flame never disappeared, as I swayed my arms and rolled around the ground to get rid of the flame. As we've tried before, it's burning the subject's fat into the fuel.

A giant body with green skin rolls around the square. The superiority finally allowed me to calm down and observe the opponent, but it was a fantasy creature that appeared in the game that Feng and the others used to play.

My face is crushed flat and my nose is pointing up. Sharp, giant teeth protruded up from the lower jaw and crossed the upper jaw canine teeth. The eyes are red, the green skin has dark green hair, and the body hair looks dark and black, but it is probably the same color as the hair. The huge body was musculoskeletal and looked like a body builder.

"An oak...."

Feng murmured to no one. We'll have to check later, but it certainly belongs to a species called Orcs. It is not a Japanese RPG familiar boar head, but a monster with an evil face like that of an overseas fantasy. The size of the body was about twice that of a human, and it felt like it was two or three times bigger than Jeanne's.

As you can see, a low-level adventurer like Feng, with incredible power, can't complain about being killed in a single blow. But in the game, there were supposed to be monsters appearing in that high level hunting ground, but in this world, would they appear so close to people...? If so, the damage would not be a goblin ratio.

Feng thought of that and twisted his neck.

"An orc...? That's it? That's stupid. I've never seen it before."

He told Guillaume to murmur behind him.

"Huh? You've never seen an adventurer like yourself?

"Oh, I've never heard of an orc in the Empire or Bray Brand. All I know is that orcs are giant demons that sometimes appear in the woods."

"But this is how it actually appeared."

"Are you sure it's an oak? Is that a mistake? I'm not one of those demons who can show up in this world."

"Er... what do you think of Jeanne?

It was in the game of the previous life that Feng had seen the monster. Therefore, even if I was asked whether it was true, I could not say that it was definitely true. Except Jeanne, who was playing the same game. When he asked, Jeanne nodded.

"I agree with White, too. But that's probably because we played the same game in the old world. It may not be the same in this world."

"You're talking about your predecessors again... so the magic tricks and ancient spells were the same as your games? Then maybe it's true."

Guillaume decided to consider it an orc for the passive reason that it was hard to convince, but there was no other candidate to say this. Rather than that, it doesn't matter what the status quo is or how it is called.

"Anyway, let's get back to the Alliance and report back. This isn't about what we can do alone."

I see. Neither are the orcs... nor the cats' bodies. You cats okay with that?

"Nyaaa... I'll leave it to you." "I'm sick of it." "I want to make a grave soon."

The cats replied powerlessly. A fellow of the same race was tragically murdered, if not disliked. Besides, you won't stand being attacked by such a monster. Feng thought of them when he looked around to try to make flowers at least.

Feng felt something in the corner of his vision that he shouldn't have seen. Like when he inadvertently looked at something he didn't like, he tried to get away from it in an instant, but he immediately remembered that it was no good and turned back to the person he was concerned about.

That can't be happening.

It's impossible.

I can't believe the monster that was just defeated by Mary's magic... has never even seen Guillaume before...

"Wait a minute, everybody! Something is approaching again... no, it's already surrounded!!

The trees of the forest groaned as if they were responding to the screams of mani. Soon, the giants with green skin stood around the square of the forest. Moreover, the number is unusual.

"... are you kidding me?

Even though it was enough to despair people, Feng's eyes now reflected at least a dozen orcs on a rough count.
