Monster no Goshujin-sama

Ten.

Having rested for a few more days, I decided to set up an opportunity to discuss my future policies with my colleagues in order to make the most of my time to fully demodulate.

Future policy… i.e. stay here, head north in search of people, or adopt the 'east' option in search of rendezvous with the First Expeditionary Corps.

"I guess we should visit people early. Fortunately, I have Gabella's testimony, and I know that there are humans in this world and how to get out of this forest."

Lily supported the proposal to head north through the woods.

"Thinking about your husband's body, I think it's better to replenish supplies as quickly as possible"

Until now, it's the same thing I've been thinking about. But Lily had her eyes turned somewhere else as well.

"Your husband has suffered several major injuries before, hasn't he? You'll need adequate rest and a nourishing diet to heal your injuries. But in these woods, it's hard to get what you need as much as you need. I'm worried I won't be able to do it at some point."

In fact, Lily pointed out that my body is a little thinner than before.

I don't know for myself, but she used to hug me, and she seemed more sensitive than she was to the minor changes that had happened to my body.

Perhaps the servitude that has continued to rely on the benefits of healing magic is looming behind me before I realize it. It is now deceptive, but it may not last forever.

It's too late to fall. It was the Golden Wheel that pulled Lily's legs, and I wanted to forgive you, that was the truth of me.

Rose and Gabella also heard Lily's point and supported her opinion.

If there was anything else to think about, it was about Mr. Kato.

Thinking for her, it didn't seem such a bad option to head east first, join the First Expeditionary Corps and ask them for her protection.

But Kato himself insisted that we should go north.

As you headed east, it's not necessarily possible to rendezvous with the expedition. This was her opinion and the best story.

Thus the destination was set in the north direction. All you have to do is decide when it moves.

Consciously speaking to Lily and the others, it was my job to make the same decision.

The day of departure is near.

For that day We prepared our hearts and our bodies.

I finally lost my tiredness from my body, that evening.

I had taken Lily and was right out of Arakune's nest.

Even in the dim woods, the ink-dropped evening melted all of the scenery into the dim darkness, obscuring its contours.

I dropped my gaze on the back of my left hand after turning my shoulder several times to see how my body was doing.

"Okay. Let's start the test. Can we go, Asalina?"

"Gosh, Sama!

In response to the noise of the trees shivering, the iron cannon spreading parasitic spreading - the name I gave in consultation with Kato, Asalina - stretches from the back of my left hand.

The figure is like a snake popping out of a nest hole. Then he stretches out and identifies his goals.

"Go!"

As per my decree, the green serpent turned himself over.

The tip, stretched five meters long, protrudes straight into a tree with a hug in my front. Fragments of the bark splattered, and the dull sound of stiff things spinning in the trunk echoed along with the sound of leaf ringing that echoed simultaneously.

"Gu...... OK, go back"

Eat your teeth off the load you hang from wrist to shoulder, and I'll get Asalina back.

When I approached him and checked the tail, the trunk of the raw tree I had targeted was worn with a hole about two centimeters in diameter and three centimeters deep.

"Not bad."

Nodding satisfied with the achievement, I stroked Asalina, who twisted herself and shook her head with the back of her left hand, with her right fingertip. Are you happy with that, Asarina rang in disabling words.

"Gosh, shh, shh, sama! Sama!"

Asalina can't handle some kind of bullet that belongs to the original cannon crawl. Because she doesn't have the organs that make it possible.

We do not yet know whether this is what grows from growing, or whether it is a sign that she is a new species branching out of the cannon crawl.

It was unfortunate that the seed bullets could not be used, but instead Asalina had a more powerful motor performance than the cannon crawl. The elasticated body can operate like a whip, and it is possible to make intense punches by protruding in a straight line, as is currently the case.

I was only worried that they would intercept me and disconnect me... but I had already found that to be a concern.

Because if Asalina's body is cut a thousand times, her head will grow again. Around here, it can be considered a nature that makes you feel the strength of life as a plant.

The tip of the plant body looks like the head of a snake, but it doesn't actually have a central nervous system living there. In other words, the body of Asalina is the root of my left arm.

Because of this, I am now slightly uncomfortable with the movement of my left arm, but this will get used to in time.

That's how Asarina, who has taken root in me, has been sipping my magic a little bit from time to time. It is both to sustain life and to serve as a source of energy for the movement when it engages in a successful battle.

Unlike before germination, aspiring Asalina is able to properly regulate the amount of magic she sucks away. For example, I absorb less when I have less magic, and more when I have more.

If you want to change the way you look at it, you can say that Asarina's role is like 'external storage that builds up excess magic that I didn't use'.

On the contrary, she cannot bring magic to me, but she uses my magic as fuel and my power.

This was groundbreaking.

Because now I can finally get as much power as I can get into battle on my own - the bud of that possibility.

Of course, this is only Asalina's power. Not my power.

But there was no point in separating the two as a unit of battle, as a real problem, than not being able to rip me and her off.

It's as pitiful as ever that I have to help, but I can't help being mean here.

The things Lily preaches to you and makes you cry must never happen again.

I'll do what I can. I could honestly feel that way right now.

"We can expect a lot of power."

Lily, who was sitting back and watching about me, stood up and came closer to me.

"And then there's how detailed instructions you can give using the path... seems to work something out?

"You're practicing."

There will be occasions when you are deliberately giving verbal instructions during the battle and you will not make it. In that light, the operation of a single body with Asalina was considered an essential technique in combat.

I was wondering if I could use a pass for this.

What we know so far about paths is that the closer the distance, the higher the conductivity. It's a guess from previous experience that a lot of information was exchanged when we were in physical contact, but it wouldn't be wrong.

In addition to that, I also know that I can intentionally increase the amount of information, albeit to some extent, if I am willing to communicate my inner self to the other person. For example, the way Lily did when she defeated Gabella when she was an enemy hits it.

Asalina is rooted in my body, so I can say that there is no further level of contact. All I had to do was train him to communicate the instructions accurately and quickly.

Of course, if I don't get my instructions in time, I'll have them move at Asalina's discretion. In that sense, she was expected not only to act as my weapon, but also as a semi-automatic defensive mechanism.

"I hope it works."

Playing with Asalina and her fingertips, Lily said.

"Being around your husband at all times is a big advantage."

"I can't physically leave you in the first place."

Among my family, the combat capability for Asarina is considerably lower.

For fighting from the front, it will probably even be difficult to cross with the whole monster normally.

But being with me all the time can be an extra advantage to compensate for my low combat ability. Lily was right about that.

However, what Lily had said earlier from there was a little different from what I had in mind.

"But you know what? Your husband and I have been together forever..."

Pulling Asalina and the hand she was playing with, Lily put her fingers together on her back.

She had her lips pointed just a little as she tried to look up at me.

"That might just make you a little jealous"

……

Unless it's something special, Lily is mostly near me.

But still, it didn't seem to be enough in person.

Well, a relationship between a man and a woman who have not bad feelings for each other is such a thing.

It's natural that we always want to be together. It's natural to find some excuse to want to stick around. It doesn't mean she's special or sticky.

... I'm something like that. Just that I won't put it in my mouth.

"You're getting dark. Dinner will be ready and it's time to go back."

I was forced by the poor trick to deviate from her cute and obstinate, suggesting in a careless tone.

"Right. Your husband's sick, and we need to make sure he doesn't push too hard."

Lily hugging me all the way to her right arm.

Even if I don't put it in my mouth, she knows how embarrassed I am. That was never, ever a bad feeling.

When I came back into the nest, dinner was ready.

In the enclosure made by Rose, the fire was burning red, and the ingredients stabbed on the skewers were on fire.

Today's menu is Big Sisters meat. This was something Gabella had been hunting alone.

When I actually put it in my mouth, the Big Sizzlers meat was paler and tasteless than I thought. Though it's a little better than Fire Fang's meat.

I can only cook it now, but I don't think it would taste good if I sprinkled it with soy sauce while it's raw. Kato seemed to think the same thing, and he talked about Japanese sushi and sashimi without other love against Rose, who would continue to work regardless of the meal.

I've seen them conversing a lot lately.

They've been alone for a long time without me. It might also have been an opportunity to deepen the interaction.

There were other sights that were a little different than before.

When I gratefully received the meat skewer that Asarina had stretched out her thin body and bit me off, I glanced at Gabella, who sat next to me to the left.

Above Gabella's head, a young fox child hung his short legs and crawled belly. This was also a common sight recently.

"This, stop. Why would your Lord want to ride on a concubine?"

Stop is the name I gave to a young balloon fox.

Looking up at the giggle over his head, Garbera was lowering her thin brow as troubled. I guess she doesn't really hate it either, though. With white Arakune's physical abilities, it should have been easy to catch a young refrain. At a time when I hadn't, it was easy to guess what was inside her.

"Kuh, kuh."

"I don't care if they sound unhappy there. I want to complain because I'm a concubine."

"Kuh."

"... he has no choice."

Apparently, the young girlfriend likes Gabella, and she was often with her.

I'm restless and slight as a child, but when I realize it, I'm on the flat abdomen of a Gabella spider or over a white head.

Neither Gabella nor I seemed to ever feel bad about the presence of my newly-formed sister, as I burned my hands at the act of quitting.

Now, as Akira jumped right off Gabella's head and ran out with some granny girl mesmerized whimsy, she got along well and Gabella stretched out her folded eight legs and stood up.

"Hmm. I was wondering if you'd sit still for a bit."

Even though he manages to say something like that, he takes care of himself and Gabella chases him away.

It was also a set, and it appeared in my eyes as a scene of a smiling routine.

Stop running around the nest so that you can get fucked by Gabella.

And finally, I rushed over to Rose, where I was talking to Kato.

"Oh. What's wrong, stop. It's not safe."

Rose worked as usual, so she had a knife on her right hand and a nearly sharpened sword on her left. It's dangerous to get caught badly.

Regardless of those Rose worries, she pressed her nose around the hard wooden knee, whilst she stopped and squealed her nose.

"You have no choice."

Rose interrupted the work and put what she was holding on the ground.

After wandering her hands a little lost, she stroked her wailing head with a clumsy hand.

There, Garbera came after the cessation.

"I'm sorry, Lord Rose. Stop interrupting."

"No. You don't have to worry about it"

Abandoning looking up at Gabella, she lay down on the spot as Rose stroked her.

Apparently, right now, I feel like sweetening up to a sister I don't usually touch.

She looked so awkward first, and Gabella stood up.

Rose, who kept stroking her wailing, looked up at her with a cheeky face.

"You're cute, don't quit"

"Ugh, um"

"Don't stand there like that, why don't you sit down?

"Uhm."

Gabella nodded, folding her eight legs and sat down.

……

……

Pinching the refrain, Gabella and Rose sat next to each other.

I look at them alternately and stop waving their fluffy tails.

……

……

The two of you don't talk. It's solidified perfectly.

"Ku?"

Ayama leaned her neck and Kato sighed.

"Why don't you say something without making out?

Kato, with a slight glance, said in a frightened tone.

"Look, stop. Looks like you two have a discussion, so you stay here."

Ringing his tongue properly and Mr. Kato called, Ayako slipped through Rose's hand and headed to her after comparing Rose to Gabella.

The two left, they looked at each other.

Standing without a single conversation like this was an impossible situation for each other. If this happens, I'll just have to keep an eye on it.

Most importantly, my youngest sister was staring at them with crushed black eyes.

Aren't you going to chat?

Why are you deceiving me?

... and I can't tell you how awkward it would be if you were seen with such a gaze that you could hear me.

"This is what your husband said."

After a few seconds of blanks looking for topics, it was Rose, my sister, who threw the ball of conversation first.

"I was wondering if I could combine my magic tool making, which is my stunt, with the technology of your weave to create better protective gear"

"Ho."

"I think it's a good idea worth considering. How about you?

"Really? I think it's a good idea, concubine. … for example, what does Lord Rose have in mind?"

"Right."

The conversation was starting to flow.

We both excel in the field of creativity. There are still some parts of the conversation that cannot be done, but when it comes to creations, the conversation seemed endless.

When I stopped making that cut, and got round on Kato's lap listening to the conversation between the two with a modest grin, I was starting to get a kuku sleep.

What a my-pace thing, but it was certain that the air had soothed thanks to the cessation.

Of our people, the weakest would definitely be her.

Exercise performance is the extent to which hair has grown in the puppies of the world where we once lived. It seems to be monster-like and durable, and it is possible to throw up a fireball, a characteristic of being a balloon fox, but that is not enough to withstand solo combat.

But the presence of the Abandoner gave us some peace of mind. This alone was a difficult quality, and she also became a necessity for me.

"I hope these days go on forever"

To Lily's words leaning aside, I nodded with all my senses.

"Oh. Right. I really hope so..."

I had a feeling that that would be an unfulfilled wish, though somehow.

Through these woods, my environment will change dramatically.

If I set foot in the world of men, I will have to confront my fellow human beings.

I am the Lord who leads the family monsters of Lily. Whatever happens, I decide to live with them.

I don't know yet how my qualities of leading a monster can be accepted by humans in this world.

My compatriots in the true sense that they will soon patrol… I don't even know how the Gentile students will relate to us.

I didn't need to be accepted at all, but at least I hoped you wouldn't just be hostile.

Still, if they were to be hostile... then I would be prepared to fight the people of my own kingdom. In front of you, to protect this sight.

I left the Arakune nest only a few days later.

Heading north - we began to walk toward the clippings of the forest and toward the world that should be spreading beyond it.
