Jujutsushi Wa Yuusha Ni Narenai
Episode 169: Red Raptor
Jazeera was eaten fast by a large underwater monster like Mossaurus, and then we decided to go into the woods and camp similar to the previous jungle area, which extends across the coast. I want to avoid camping on a spectacular coastline because Zilla often abounds by the sea. Or, it's hard to say it's safe in the woods, but this time, it means prioritizing the Zira threat. The fishmongers shouldn't bother to split into the woods and explore.
Our camp is a large spider's nest strewn among the great trees. Or the Arakune nest itself.
If Arakune, a big spider demon, nests, naturally, there's no breaking when humans get on top. That means it can also be used as a fine scaffold for us. If you use the full capabilities of the Lem II, Arakune's corpse doll, you can nest just like you did in your lifetime, and for convenience, it is possible to make you nest only with non-adhesive yarn.
It will be laborious, but it will be worth it. This is outside Fairy Square, where security from demons is guaranteed. You should be prepared for bedtime as much as you can.
"Okay, you can do this"
Working with Arakune, when I finally saw the completed camp of the day, I nodded contentedly.
When sleeping, climb to the upper spider's nest. If you tie a rope ladder with black hair, you don't even have to bother climbing a tree.
Me and May will be up there, and Arakune will be waiting. For night protection on the ground, Black Knight Rem and Unit III. For once, let's get Skeleton Squad out too. If you're a mud doll and a mud puppet, no one will bother to come after you as a prey.
Kotaro Kun, we're ready for dinner.
And, as usual, May will call me to serve you a delicious evening meal.
Today's dedication is full of crabs, crabs and crabs. I happen to have a big crab. To be exact, it's a crab-shaped demon.
He was a fierce looking crab with a thick crust like a Luke Spider and a scissor with a slashing flavor sharp blade like Nightmantis. In fact, it is a fine active monster because when you look at us, you come roaring and attacking us.
But such a horrible crab is also capable of a full course of crab exhaustion if it is in the hands of our mad warrior Mae. Hey, eatable demons, they're thankful, aren't they?
"The flavor is... quite protein, but with a hint of flavor"
Yeah, yummy. The peeling, boiled with guts in a witch pot, felt like slightly thinning the tarabagani.
It's not meat, it's not fish, this feels delicious, the guy called Crustacean.
"If it's this big, you can take a lot of miso too."
"Hey."
Saying something like that, he was fully indulged with a sharp thorny offensive head of methyl on a plate, with crab miso attached to each other.
After dinner, I take care of my gear, I study ancient languages, Mae studies new ingredients, and so on, and then I go to bed. Although we can secure the lights with fire, there is no point in staying up until we purposely set the fire on fire. If the sun sets, he falls asleep and wakes up with the dawn. This is the basics of Nojuku. Well, it's an indoor in a giant dungeon.
It's a wax, and it's totally dark around here, so I don't need a rest.
"... Kotaro-kun"
I wake up with that voice whispered in my ear. [M]
Dark. Dark. It's not dawn yet, or it'll be midnight altogether.
I don't see anything. But I can tell there's Mae right next door. Maybe, face, so close.
"Uh, what?"
I just woke up, and I feel like I'm falling asleep.
What are you doing in the middle of the night? What's up, finally the night crawl event? Give me a break for dreaming ochi or something, will you?
"The enemy is coming. Maybe they're already surrounded."
"Seriously!?
My head awakens at once to a report of a truly fractional enemy attack, without any shards of colour. Reminds me of a simulation if I detect a night attack by an enemy while increasing the turnaround of my thoughts with surprise and haste.
"The enemy."
"It's definitely a demon. Quite a few of them... but it looks like they can move pretty quietly"
So I guess Lem hasn't sent out any enemy assault signals yet either. I was asleep. Did I just tell you not to be afraid of Mad Warrior intuition that Mae would detect enemies first? Rem can't skip in case.
"I guess it's just not my classmate. But you sound like a mighty enemy."
Rem hasn't noticed the presence of the enemy yet, or since I heard the report, he's already passed it on and moved on to alert, but anyway, it's different from just a bunch of goma at a time when he can act to quietly siege us. Have you even attacked Special Forces by Zira's elite? Like Navy Zeelaz?
"Throw it away here. Let's get out to the coast."
The fact that they've set me up at midnight like this means they're nocturnal. Now, I'm used to acting in the woods. It is also possible that if you go out to the open coast, you will not come after you by taking off your territory.
Having found out that the enemy is a herd and more numerous than we are, it would seem bad luck to go out on an open sandy beach that is easily besieged, but the sandy beach would be better than surrounded in the woods at night. In the woods, no matter how many pine lights you burn, you can't afford the darkness. The interests of the land are beyond.
"Well, I'll go, Kotaro!
Wear your gear quickly and Mae will hold me with her left arm with a shield.
Gyu can snuggle with a softer body to help, but soon, with momentum and flotation, the room to indulge is blown away.
The enemy is still going to attack us all at once. So from the top of Arakune's nest, Mae will hold you and jump all at once.
Zun, the impact of a landing called. But it's okay, because my head is guarded by the finest softness humankind can have compared to an airback. Wow, as a brun, I can't breathe for a moment with my face buried. Excuse me, can you do it again now?
"Retreat! Light the fire!
Even as I delude my heart, I yell out loud at Rem and Skeleton Squad.
In making them night guard, they are supplying pine lights to everyone. If only they could instantly kill enough miscellaneous fish approaching, we don't need them, but if we were to truly intercept them, there would be lights first. Rem's vision seems to work in considerable darkness, and Skeleton should also be called undead at the bottom, and the night seems to work. So, there's no obstacle to acting even at midnight, but look, I can't see, can I?
The pine lights for the number of people lit up and the area became quite bright. At least not to the extent that it won't stick to the roots of the trees at your feet.
Take Mae first, then me, next to Black Knight Rem and Unit III, right behind them is Arakune. Skeletons are all follow-on units. Almost a row of columns, and we start running through the woods at night.
"Khooaaaaaaaa!"
A shitty squeal echoing through the quiet woods.
"Humph!"
Shortly afterwards, a sharp Halvard blow was being fired along with the mood of a mad warrior's rip.
The sound of slamming off dull meat and a short scream. Have you broken into the corner of the siege, or have you jumped at us fleeing? It's hard to tell, but anyway, the enemy has finally begun to appear.
"Was he a raptor?"
The guy May tailored flew across the bush flashly raising a blood splash, but even if he just looked chilly, he clearly understood the silhouette of that carnivorous dinosaur.
Beyond the darkness illuminated by the pine lights, the gaggers and raptors can also be heard loudly from all over. Again, it's not my mistake, the target is confirmed by the raptor.
A known demon, a little relieved. It's always horrible when you see someone for the first time.
Raptors boast the highest strength among the herd's miscellaneous fishmongs. He has sharp nails and fangs for agile motion, and he has quite a scaly defense. Gore will be the only herd of miscellaneous fish Mons that can beat the others.
From Mae's mouth, this time the herd seems to be numbered like never before, but if she continues to grow as a mad warrior, with Rem, who gained the fighting power of a living armor, and positive alphas such as me and Skeleton, there's no element of losing militarily first. If I go through the woods at night, and I'm targeted from the blind spot by a pinpoint, and there's no chance of accidental death, so if I can get out to the coast, victory is the cornerstone.
"Kotaro-kun, out on the beach - Huh!?
Breaking through the deep bushes, May stops moving out to the sandy beach.
Before I asked, I understood the situation right behind me.
"You're lying, three big crabs... at a time like this!
On the beach, there was a big crab demon who jagged a big, sharp scissors for a yarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr dinner this evening. And three. There was only one when I counted during the day, but can they swarm plain as well?
If it was just one, it would have been an easy win. May will kill you instantly. You can have two. The first one is Mae, but the second one is Black Knight. I wish I had Rem.
But how about three? At least, it's not instantaneous. The third one will be free while Lem holds one at a time, Mae said.
The crab is a luke-spider-like crust. Normally attacking and smashing cracks is about a Mad Warrior and a Black Knight, which is difficult on Rem III to a degree that has been slightly enhanced over Normal. Still, there's me, Arakune and Skeleton Squad, so I can hold back... but from behind, there's a bunch of raptors looming.
Crab at the front gate, Raptor at the rear gate. It may be better than being sandwiched by a tiger and a wolf, but it's not a very good formation.
"I'll leave the crab to May! Arakune's got cover!
"Yeah!"
"Shaaaa!"
In the meantime, if I leave it to Mae, she'll also defeat the three big crabs in due course. The Arakune II is also on support, so it shouldn't be in case.
Later, with Black Knight Rem and Unit III at the avant-garde, Skeleton at the wall, intercept the raptor I'm chasing. I'd like to think that the Infinite Spring of High Zombies is an easy opponent.
I wish, at a time like this, a completely different demon named the Great Crab didn't show up as if it were waiting for us. Does your luck suck today? Bees on the crying surface, misfortune overlaps, so as to avoid going out, I don't know - no, wait, is this really just bad luck, coincidence?
"Kho-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o!"
"As usual, Rem. Spread out, 'Rotten Swamp'"
First of all, pull the 'Rotten Marsh', a stable method of warfare for the benefit of the land. Raptors are bouncing, so they create swamps in the mood to spread the word so they can't get past one foot.
Both the Black Knight and Unit III are perfectly handy to stand around utilizing poisonous marshes together. If anyone tries to jump over after putting on enough help, it also jams me first. Worst of all, you can drop it if you get in the way with your dark hair even if you fly.
Skeleton's can't be a very good move, but that's enough if you're fighting on poisonous marsh waters.
All I have to do is cover my enemies as best I can. Drag it into the swamp with "Dark Hair Tied," and apply a little bit with "Red Hair Brackets" to restrain it. Then, if you load the "wand of the fool" with the "magician", the Raptor can also unleash "Poison", which is almost instant death damage.
"Okay, I can go. I can beat you like this."
Even now, it has been mostly abusive in this formation. The more Poison I can afford, the more I can afford it. The crowd of pushing raptors was clearly attacking us in front.
Raptor, a wild demon, is no fool. If the number there is defeated, I will surely escape, presuming that it does not fit the bill. If it's a rule of thumb, it's time to give up and leave.
"Shao!"
For a moment, I felt a red shadow pass at the edge of my sight.
What, a mistake in sight, or an illusion in the eye - no, it's not.
"There's one red guy mixed up."
Is it a subspecies of the raptor? Or is Soytz the boss? Either way, there's definitely a red raptor.
Even if the raptor is a subspecies, it would be about as fortified as spitting flames or something at best. But I don't know what kind of hidden balls you have, so if you want to rule it out, it's top priority.
"Where?"
It's supposed to be noticeably red, but it's hard to capture if it's moving around at a fair rate. But there's no way you can hide yourself forever in this open place...... there he is, there he is!
"Shaaaaaa!"
The red raptor, if you look closely, was not only red in color, but striped like a tiger. The scales covering the entire body are bright red, where the same dark brown color as the original species runs vertically and appears striped.
But the biggest feature is not the color, but its head and tail.
On the head, two sharp, pointed corners stick forward, as if to pierce the enemy. There are no horns growing on the raptor, but the guy has a splendid two horns and a thick crust formed on his head, as if he were even wearing a helmet.
The tail has a shiny blade. Though the slashing flavour seems worse than the sickle of Nightmantis, it exceeds the length and thickness of the body and, above all, the distinctive scarecrow-like blade highlights the viciousness.
Definitely, he's the boss. Its appearance and signs are felt to draw a line with other raptors.
If that's the case, he'll do whatever it takes. I'll take the general's head. This is already the range of Poison.
"Eat it, 'Poison (Poison)'!
It does capture the red raptor standing on the edge of the poisonous swamp in the middle of his sight, swinging his wand to activate the invisible curse 'Poison'. This spell, which delivers poison in a straight line ahead of the stare, cannot be removed as long as the target is visible - it should have been.
"Shh, quaaaaaaaa!
With a sharp nose, the red raptor's body leans heavily. And when I realized it, he was out of my sight.
"You're lying, you avoided it!?
Could he see something like a wave of poison released? Or do you realize that if I hadn't exactly captured it in my sight, I wouldn't have hit it? If it's just a coincidence, that's fine.
"Oh, shit, that's too fast!
It turns into a red wind and runs through the outer perimeter of the poisonous marsh. I aim for the next one, but in addition to his running speed, he continues to escape the spell spectacularly by flying or entering the shadows of his fellow combatants.
No, I can't capture his movements with my kinetic vision. I don't even have confidence in the aiming Am in the first place. I don't hate FPS, but you weren't even very good at it.
"Shaaaa, shao!
Scratching my aim, the Red Raptor finally came out to fight back. To the skeleton that was nearby, he waves his scarecrow tail and slaps it all he wants.
Of course, Skeleton, who is only a miscellaneous fish, does not have the defense to withstand the blow of an intense scarecrow blade. The tail swayed by the horizontal giraffe splendidly crushed Skeleton's hips and made him try to turn them into two pieces.
But if you shoot Poison into that gap you attacked...
"Shaaaaaaaa!"
It was sweet. He wouldn't stop moving.
Flip yourself in a flowing motion, or put one foot on the upper body of a skeleton that fell to the ground, its sparse bone, and kick the beach thoughtfully with the opposite foot.
Then, what happens?
Slip.
Yes, he replaced the skeleton wreckage with a board and slipped over the poison swamp.
Basically, the 'Rotten Marsh' water depth is shallow. The depth of the water is also quite shallow, like a puddle of water. So as soon as the body falls, the water will be buried.
If we go deeper into the swamp, we need to prepare. Like when we defeated Basilisk in that poisonous swamp area, there was a magic formation and a preparation for offering.
Of course, I didn't do that this time, and let a few drops of blood fly from the curse to unfold, usually activated. Its depth is shallow as usual. And the strong acidic liquid that fills the poisonous swamp is drooling like blood, numbing more than water. I mean, it's slippery for the price.
"What is it, Koitz -" Poison (Poison) "!
It is now time to cast a spell on the Red Raptor, who crosses in an entirely unexpected way by surfboarding with a skeleton. All you have to do over there is slip into a straight line. If that's all the movement, even I can guess,
"Shaaaa!"
So the red raptor flew. It is a brilliant jump, a big leap.
"Shit-"
Shit, I took it off. The 'poison (Poison)' that I blew off thinking it was coming towards a straight line doesn't hit the red raptor who decided to jump high.
And here he is, standing across the poison swamp. Now he's flying straight at me.
Quick, the next "Poison," no, the shooting won't work. Then, with black hair tied up, shit, I can't make it, no more, just right in front of me with a giraffed raptor claw!
"Ggaaaaaaaaaa!"
With the ambition of temper, Lem III flew out of the sideways to the flying red raptor, teasing his full tackle.
"Rem!"
"Gugg, Guggaga"
Anyway, I guess you jumped in just to help me. I didn't have a weapon in my hand, I just hit the red raptor full of force.
With that aggressive judgment and action, I just picked up my life.
"Shut up, Kishaaaaaaaa!
How much did you dislike the fact that my prey was interrupted? [M] Falling over the poisonous swamp, the red raptor rises quickly, raising his voice of anger that does not make him feel any pain.
Opposite Rem III also tries to get up and respond further, but he was quicker.
In such a way as angry minds, the red raptor dramatically devoured the lem. Stick your fangs out at your shoulders and shake them wide enough to throw even more as you chew through each armor of your crust badly.
"Gugga!"
A special scarecrow tail is now wielded toward Lem, who has been slapped to the ground without the art of becoming. Like martial arts, a strong, sharp red flash caused the neck of Rem III to fly.
I feel disconnected from Unit III. Completely out of function.
"'Poison'"
Release to the red raptor with the lem attached. But you were angry and you didn't forget about my spell, and you were avoided in quick steps. Yeah, seriously, at this distance, you can avoid it at this time, too.
"Guishaaaaaaa!"
Finally, a red raptor peeling his fangs at me. Reach out and you'll never get there. "Poison" cannot be shot yet.
So I decided to throw it in a different way.
Sakurai has a poisonous smoke ball containing "Poison" made by Daisy.
Even at this close range, or throwing with my poor shoulder, I can't let a super evasive red raptor hit me, so I'll slap him right at my feet.
The poisonous smoke balls to which the shock has been added erupt all at once the purple smoke that is all the more poisonous on the cracked clap of what structure it is.
"Giiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
It's a red raptor that sounds alarming, but the poisonous smoke has already reached his time. The agile dodging power that escapes the rays is also pointless for poisonous gas attacks that fill the space itself. There's no way to avoid a guy who comes into this place full of poison smoke.
But this isn't the only way we can stop him completely. He may deliver his fangs to me before he dies of poison.
There are also simultaneous and parallel stoppages. The only thing I can use under this circumstance is the 'brunette tie' I'm used to using already!
"Stop, brunette tied - no!?
"Shh, shh, shh!"
From beyond the poisonous smoke filling his sight, a red blade flew as his scarecrow tail rolled out a poke.
When I recognized that, it felt hot running on my cheeks. Sharp pain. He cut my face off - but it's not fatal, is it? The enemy is right in front of us!
"Uh-oh!
Draw a melee red knife and a butterfly knife in the mouth, which you will rely on at the end while tying your black hair with all your strength. In the meantime, I'll have to attack you directly.
"Kotaro!
"Guru, gagaaaaaaaa!
May, our patron saint, thrust in with tremendous momentum, even leaving behind the voice calling me. Almost at the same time, Black Knight Rem, who had stopped a large number of raptors, rushes.
"Shah, quah, kiaaaaa!
The Red Raptor responded quickly. This is a situation where he could have cut me to death with one more hand, but he withdrew, honking softly.
On the other side of the thin, sunny poison smoke, scaffolding the body of a fellow fallen into the poison swamp, I saw a chilling red figure returning across the swamp.
"To, you ran away..."
After all, the wild demons are really clean. Soon the hustle and bustle of the battle had stopped and we were back on the beach on a quiet night.
Damn it, I'm still holding on to two knives, my heart beating so loudly as it excites me.
"Kotaro! Such a scratch on your face!?
"What... oh, I'm fine, because it's a casli wound"
Speaking of which, they cut off my cheek. With a sadder look than my injured self, Mae, even with tears, approached me with tremendous momentum, and instead I could calm down.
"So, but if it leaves any scars... then I'll take responsibility!
"No, it's okay. 'Cause the wound pills will heal you right away, just calm down."
For some reason, I just painted my cheeks with the constant medicine, A, as I lost Mae, who was more disturbed than I was. Ugh, it's been a while since I've used it, it stings in my wound...
"I'm sorry, Kotaro, if I could rush faster"
"No, that's okay. Mae didn't just go crabs, she went raptors."
She had served me fully as an avant-garde. The three Big Crabs are beautifully smashed, and they're paying back all the looming raptors.
"It was me who caught my guard."
A little more, if his tail orbit was uneven down there, I could have been slashed in the neck and fatally wounded. He must have missed his aim because he was full of poisonous smoke and had poor vision.
All I had to do was get my cheeks cut open with a cusli scratch, just lucky. Yes, I'm dying now. If it wasn't a boss fight, it wasn't a wack hostile to my classmates, just an encounter with Miscellaneous Fish Mons...... let's admit, there was alarm. When the raptor I was used to seeing was the opponent, I was lowering my guard one step.
You seem to have hit your best hand yourself, but if you had dealt with it more with a sense of crisis, the results would have changed. No nagging, no loss of Unit III, no unmatched injuries, and that red raptor could have been taken away without letting go.
For example, you should have switched roles with the Black Knight Rem instead of me targeting the Red Raptor, relying on the convenient 'Poison'. If we had used Unit III and Skeleton better, we would have been able to use the Raptor for what the Black Knight Rem had stopped.
No matter how clever Rem is, he can't figure out everything about the war more than he always fights as an avant-garde. At best, somewhat with my will, to the point where I know the information… I should have concentrated on directing and covering my allies, greedily, without taking part in the attack.
"In the meantime, let's move out of here. You should camp another time elsewhere and rest."
"Yeah, I got it."
We recovered a minimum of core and material, and we followed this perfectly bloody sandy beach.
