2-26 Encounters with the Unknown 5

Time went back a little bit. When Takumi and Iris fled into the woods without talking to each other about anything for a while, Takumi suddenly stopped running.

……

"Takumi...?

Iris tilted his neck and looked at Takumi, wondering about Takumi, who had suddenly stopped.

And Takumi answered Iris by meditating on his eyes and taking a deep breath once, then opening his eyes and looking like he had decided to be ready for something.

"Iris will return to the village first. I'm gonna go get some walnuts."

Iris flashed for a moment at Takumi, who spoke so with an unmistakable eye.

"Oh, hey, wait a minute! This time the enemy is strong enough not to compare to previous enemies...... If you take a wrong step, you could die, right? Isn't Takumi scared...?

And back to me, with a face of mixed anxiety and surprise, Iris asked Takumi with a trembling voice, and he began to hear a loud noise from the fountain as to whether a full-scale battle had begun.

Takumi laughed weakly at Iris, who clouded his expression when he heard the roar, pounding Iris' head.

"No, I'm scared. Honestly, I was so scared I couldn't move until just now."

"Huh...?

Then Takumi took her hand off Iris' head and turned her back.

"But if you think about it, Walnut dying is more scary than you dying. Now, if I don't go to the gym and Walnut dies, you'll never regret it."

"Oh no..."

Iris couldn't say anything like that. Iris looked firmly at the face of the walnut, who stood up to Takumi and Iris one man courageously from the Bundersnatch attack.

Hide your anxiety, the walnut face that made me laugh at myself powerlessly.

"It's gonna be okay! I'd rather not do it and regret it than regret it. Iris, do what you want!

And Takumi, who left that word behind, ran back down the original path and went.

"I..."

Iris could only drop off the hindsight.

- Whoa, whoa.

"Kuh!?

In the sight of Kasumi, he shrugged his teeth around the ground avoiding bandersnatch arm slapping at critical times.

Walnuts have been around for most of the battle defense since being attacked by Bundersnatch. Although I find gaps and repeat my attacks with magic and sidelines, the mental strength of the walnuts is still palpable because of the sturdy scales on the bunder snatch, and the wounds on this one have increased and my health has decreased.

"Ha... ha..."

(I knew that blow hurt...... I hardly feel my left arm anymore, and I have a broken bone. Right...)

I stood up in a hurry, but with no force in my left arm, I glanced at him.

Ignoring such a walnut state, however, Bundersnatch repeatedly beats Ogi in one blow if he hits even against the walnut with a roar.

And it was when Walnut tried to avoid the slapping attack on both arms by flying back.

Shit!?)

Walnuts, who were unable to move back than they thought due to fatigue and damage suffered or who did not successfully gain strength in their feet, stopped their feet by closing their eyes unexpectedly to the smoke that rose because they instantly stopped on the spot to avoid being blown away by the impact of the beating.

"Ah..."

Walnut, who took his eyes off the bunder snatch for a moment, looked at the bunder snatch again and opened his eyes. A face with sharp fangs and red and black eyes was approaching.

The bloody walnut protruded the sidelines forward reflexively, though in fear, but directly into the facial assault.

"Huh!!?

The sidelines were bounced off, and the walnut, which hit directly at the attack, blew down the forest trees with a scream that kept him from speaking.

Walnut, who was slapped on the back by a tree harder than earlier, felt his bones break all over his body, spitting blood out of his mouth and collapsing powerlessly from his knee whether his gut had been damaged.

"Uhhh..."

Walnuts falling down on the ground were cramping their bodies and could not help moving one finger of their body.

(... Takumi...... Iris...... brother...... sorry, I can't seem to do this anymore...)

The light was lost from the eyes where the tears flowed naturally, and the eyes closed and the walnuts finally lost consciousness there.

But mercilessly, Bundersnatch walks over to an already unconscious walnut, and when he shakes up both arms stretched out to temper, he slaps them with all his might to turn them into wood dust, roars and crushes down the fallen trees and there's tons of earthsmoke around.

Then I put my arm aside to see if Bundersnatch had finished preying, but the walnut figure that was supposed to have crushed it wasn't there.

And I was there with a walnut that was worn out and unconscious a man who wasn't even there until just now about five meters away who tapped him.

"Walnuts... Sorry. I'm just being impudent..."

The man, Kiryu Takumi, wiped tears that conveyed the cheeks of walnuts that were losing consciousness and then lowered them to the shade of the tree, glaring at the bandersnatch watching this one with so much anger and willingness to kill that he had never felt before.

"Terrible...... I will definitely smash you!!

Reacting to Takumi, whose voice was roughed with anger, Bundersnatch raised his roar with his arms wide open.
