It's all one flower.

0149. Running down the hill

I saw a sign after noon.

If you get off here, you will exit to the Zolata district of the barn zone of the city of Zerneau. Zolata District was not damaged by air raids because of the small number of private houses or as far as it could be seen.

Should we continue westward through the mountains and descend in the city of Kulbunika?

The city of Kulbunika is also a farmland with a mountain hem. I don't think I was hit by an air raid.

Amiella had no land surveys around here and didn't know where the next branch was.

Think hard bread.

If the bridge on the river Njefried is falling, you can't go anywhere.

It still looks like you should walk down the mountain, over the river, and then down the mountain.

In the distance, I can already see the city of Kulbunika. If there's a way down the mountain, you'll still be able to get out of the city by the end of the day.

Lift your hips and carry your luggage.

Something moved at the edge of my vision.

I thought it would be a cluttered demon, but I look you in the eye somehow.

……

Between the trees, the eyes (yes, they are) different from those of the Miscellaneous Demon.

My knees trembled before I recognized what it was. Instinctive fear prevents you from looking away.

Encourage your feet to retreat as they lose strength and are about to enter.

That's what sneaks out of the rock shade on the slope. A long neck followed on the head resembling a frog. The whole thing looks like a piece of mud as a lump.

Clouds flow and the sun shoots from the gaps in the branches.

There was no shadow under the anomaly.

A lot of legs firmly support the slightly swollen torso, with an ambiguous presence in the world.

... of the night...?

I didn't see her, but Amiella intuitively thought it was the thing that walked around the cabin in the rain.

The demon moves slowly, but one step closer to defining her as a prey.

Amiella retreated as soon as the demon approached.

An unusually large eye shines in the joy of finding prey.

... I have to run... Quickly!

He squeezed his strength and turned his back on the demon. The sound of stepping on the fallen leaves follows.

Amiella raised a voiceless cry and ran down the mountain path.

I don't even care about the weight of my luggage.

Many times they take their legs off by wet falling leaves, twist (not) on the stone, and stick to the trees and rocks when they are about to fall.

I can't think of anything and go down a winding slope to slip half way down.

I can't afford to turn around. My breath is disturbed and my legs snap.

He was sudden, and his core leg was heavy as it went in the mud.

"Ahhh!

It piled on a rock and my leg slipped on a falling leaf containing water. The body is thrown into the universe.

The steep slopes of the mountains flow strangely slowly and through sight.

A clump of miscellaneous demons ripples like a mockery (bruise) on either side of the slope.

I felt it for a very long time, but in fact, it's a moment when I can't even take it.

Shortly after he raised his voice, he was beaten to the trunk of a large tree a few meters down.

I stop breathing in severe pain.

He was thrown over a damp fallen leaf and exhaled thinly.

The demon still walks quite a bit up the hill.

Amiella put her hands on the ground, trying to get up.

"... ugh!

My throat is tightened to such severe pain that my breath is clogged, and I don't cry. My left arm lost its strength and drooled.

... I have to run.

Root your right hand, let it crawl into the trunk and it's time to get up.

It hurts everywhere, but my legs seem to move. Forced to take a step, the cluttered demon surrounding Amiella wanted to retreat.

Return to the hiking trail.

Eat your teeth out of the severe pain that strikes you every step of the way and go down the hill again.

The taste of blood spreads in your mouth and a red drop falls from your lips. Amiella didn't mind her cut lips, she only looked under her feet and moved on.

Your own footsteps to escape.

Is it the footsteps of the demon you chase?

Will the Miscellaneous Demon sound the deciduous leaves?

The deciduous leaves make a damp sound, and each time the heart beats hard like another creature behind the chest. Speaking of winter, because the sun came up, the demon's movements were dull, and he had to fall and not be driven.

Unexpectedly a wooden fence appeared on Amiela's way down how long.

... traffic stop...? You're lying, aren't you?

The wooden fence completely blocks the hiking trail.

On both sides of the road, large rocks can be like walls. The slope around it is steep and it is unlikely to climb without injury and luggage.

The damp sound of stepping on the deciduous leaves approaches.

Amiella tried to push the fence. The center moves slightly.

There's a candlestick on the other side.

At the moment I noticed, I put my right hand in the gap of the fence and grabbed the claw. Right... no, left. He slipped out to the side in an unexpectedly smooth movement. The stops make a high noise due to excessive momentum.

I immediately pulled my arm out and slipped myself into the door.

He hangs back with his trembling hands and raises his face.

The demon looks down from the rocks beside it. Stretch your long neck this way and distort your flat face like a frog into the shape of a laugh.

Amiella retreated.

A nail-like tooth peeks through the demon's mouth. There are about three adults with a body like a pinch of mud. Can you handle it with a wooden fence like this?

The demon was blind to the fence and let himself leap from the rock. Unexpectedly, close both eyes tightly.

There was a roar that could not possibly be emulated on the hem of the mountain.

Open your fearful eyes.

The demon hikes across the fence.

I must have jumped straight from the rock to Amiella. How can I go wrong and fall to such a place?

I couldn't afford to think about it.

Amiella turned her back on the fence and dragged her aching body away from the scene.
