Living in this World with Cut & Paste

Episode 166: CASE: Taylors

My name is Taylor.

A former Class B adventurer, he now represents the clan "Tamer's Ring" approved by the Kingdom of Augusta.

The purpose of Tamer's Ring is to serve and collect rare demons that exist in the world. In fact, we have succeeded in taming many rare demons. A man named Tamed Demon is quite useful.

Even where humans can't get their hands on it, or it's a dangerous place, demons often make the impossible possible.

As a result, there are quite a few people who want a demon that has been served (Tamed).

There is no such thing as a group for the purpose of serving as a demon (Tame) other than us in the circle of the devil (Tamer's Ring), whether it's a clan or a party.

That is why we are treasured or even recognized by nobility, royalty, etc.

Now the Tamer's Ring has risen to the point of being one of the top three clans in the kingdom.

I am now taking a rookie to Lucas, a country town away from the King's capital.

The rookie's name is Cappole, and he's from this town of Lucas.

I brought him here to show you around... but this guy took an interesting story inside.

I found a demon in the woods behind Lucas that I had never seen before.

I mean purple coyotes and pink fish-like demons floating through the air...

... It sure seems like a rare demon as far as I can hear. I'd say he's a demon who should be securing in our clan at all costs.

For your convenience, the town of Lucas has business.

They say for the first time in a long time a new clan has been approved by the state and will hold a completion ceremony for the clan house in the town of Lucas, where it is based.

The First Princess Sylphide is married to a representative, so the country seems to be backing up for a long time. He told me to come as a representative of the top three clans because the country was going to hold a ceremony for the completion of the home of the clan in Lucas.

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

"... well, we'll be on our way tomorrow soon"

Hmm? Isn't that alto? I didn't expect you to go all the way out to this one country until the next king.

What the hell are you talking about? Though how many royal clans have been involved, isn't it too easy to give preferential treatment?

And even though I've just done it, I don't like it when you say we treat the three biggest clans the same way.

... So, who is it? What about the hungry guy talking to Alto?

"... but are you sure this request is okay? I don't know how you guys can attack the Labyrinth (Dungeon)... isn't it too difficult?

"It's okay, brother-in-law! Thank you for your concern."

... Labyrinth (dungeon) attack, and "brother-in-law"?

To call Alto my brother-in-law... is that right, a bastard named Mine that this guy married Sylphide? Why, you're a little hungry.

... Are you saying that Sylphide married this one? You should marry me if you're going to marry such a hungry ghost.

"My father wouldn't be more dangerous if that labyrinth (dungeon) were further away from the king's capital..."

... I see.

You mean the King ordered a Labyrinth (Dungeon) attack directly from "Eternal Sunflower"?

Shit, fuck you. It's such a good position for a request to come in on Conne.

But where is the labyrinth (dungeon) close to the king's capital? When it comes to nearby labyrinths (dungeons), they are about the labyrinth of power (dungeons)...

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

"Dear Taylor! I get it! Anything, a labyrinth (dungeon) suddenly appeared about half a day west of the capital."

The Labyrinth (Dungeon) that Alto was talking about was also publicly available in the Adventurer's Guild, and he was able to find out soon enough.

"Hmm, the freshman labyrinth (dungeon)? Certainly not a good taste for a normal adventurer."

The disadvantages are greater than the advantages to be gained at the moment when there is not enough information.

It's not like there's any chance you can get a thousand bucks, but from the standpoint of being an adventurer, it's true that you want to shy away.

... but for us, Tamer's Ring, the benefits are greater. A freshman labyrinth (dungeon) may be able to discover demons that cannot be seen anywhere else. Even if it wasn't a new breed, if it was also a subspecies, it could be sold to the favorites at a high price.

Finally, if you don't like that hungry ghost coming, you can bury him in the dark by accident. It's a common story to die in an accident while exploring a labyrinth (dungeon).

If that's the case, we have to hurry.

If we don't get ahead of them, we won't be able to surprise them.

"All right, you guys! We're on our way with a new labyrinth (dungeon). Be ready in five minutes!

It's starting to sound funny. Look at you, you little guy who says Mine or something.

I'll teach him real combat as a senior in the clan.

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

"Chi, my God. The color is white, but isn't this Royal Bee?!?

Surely this guy has a nasty way of attacking. There's a wide range of needles that contain quite powerful poisons... and they should come out in large quantities.

Yabe, it's a demon you'll encounter in a place where there's a lot of shielding like the woods.

There's nothing like this. It's not like we're fighting in a big place.

Besides, it's a monster in the rare category.

I need to weaken my [Tame Pole], but I can't do Tame.

"Ganda, Upec! Let your dragonfly shoot wind magic from a distance! Kappole, come next to me! And your sparrow!

The only demons I'm bringing in right now are the Dark Spirit and two Black High Wolves. Black High Wolf is bad minutes to Royal Bee traveling fast through the air.

The spirits of darkness also hang on to decision making. Most of the good attacks of the Dark Spirit appeal to the spirit. Doesn't really work on insect-based demons that work with instincts alone.

Probably works about as good as sleep, but I don't know if it moves too fast to capture it.

"Kiriji, put both of Pong's mandragolas on your rock bird. Sleep him on [Sleep Radio] when he's in the air! The rest of them are waiting to see what's going on! Attack if you get a chance, okay!

In the meantime, I hit every hand I could hit right now.

I also give instructions to the Dark Spirit to act to put the Royal Bee to sleep.

"... no! Mr. Taylor! That's too fast! I can't catch up with Dragonfly."

Ganda started crying.

"You idiot! If you have time to cry, let them attack you!

... No, wait... no, no!? That setup for Royal Bee...!!!!

"Kirizi, Poon, get away from there!!!

"Huh?"

... Was it too late...

A large number of needles (possibly poisonous needles) … but pour down simultaneously with Kiriji and Pong.

Naturally, by the time the needle had stopped, without the technique of dodging it on the two of us... there was blood all over his body and two bodies rolling down.

As we were stunned at the spectacular end of Kiriji and Pong, Royal Bee stepped down on the wreckage of the two and pierced a needle that jumped out of their asses.

"... oh my god..."

Cappole next door sees how it is and vomits.

Yes, more importantly, he sucks body fluids and meat out of the wreckage.

Every time Royal Bee sucks me, Kiriji and Pong's wreckage dries up more and more.

And until just now, the clan members will no longer fully retain the prototype, and the Royal Bee will rise into the air again.

Damn it! But I see the weakness of that attack.

... The next time I use the arr, it will be the end of that fucking bug.

I see a cupole next door still throwing up, and then I give instructions to the clan members.

"All right! If he shows some weird maneuvers in the air, the current attack is coming! Get off the spot now!

That's because he heard my instructions, and he starts trying to strike again.

... The goal is apparently mine.

Capole's still obsessed with throwing up and hasn't noticed his behavior.... I'm sorry, you have to die for me.

I grab Cappole's neck gasp and throw it between him and me, who's about to unleash exactly the attack right now.

"Hey, what!? What is it!? Mr. Taylor!?

I just saw that his poison needle was pouring around the first person to land a bullet.

I mean, if Capole eats the first shot, I can get away with it myself.

"Guaaaaaaa!!!! Oh, no!!!! You're dirty. Wow, taylor doo!!

And while I'm releasing the poison needle, that bee bastard's movements... stop.

"Go, spirits of darkness! Get that bee to sleep!!

Hmm? You Cappole squire, why bother jumping into the poison needle?

Oh, you tried to save my husband... Beautiful subordinate love, cuckoo.

Cappole and his subordinate sparrow collapsed to the ground, at that moment.

My Dark Spirit succeeded in putting Royal Bee to sleep.

"... good for you, you don't have to suck a lot out of your body, fuhahaha"

Now, while you're asleep, let's give him a taste.

Tame him and you can pick up all the royal jelly you want that's a big deal. It's just a golden tree.

There were few sacrifices, but there was no choice. We're not getting paid for anything.

Now, if I tame the boss, will I defeat him?

In the meantime, let's get this over with and head to the next level.
