"GYAHAHAHAHAHA!!
"... Huh!
The first small room on the second floor of the labyrinth.
I stepped in there and was greeted by a creepy laugh.
If you look at it, the giant pumpkin face is totally pointing this way, and its eyes look ridiculously narrow.
Unfortunately, I didn't seem to be able to unintentionally hit you.
"GYAHA!"
"Come on!"
A laughing pumpkin makes a sharp squeal and jumps something out of its mouth.
Fast.
I fly sideways, avoiding it.
What hit the wall and fell to the floor... is pumpkin seeds the size of tennis balls.
(This was also in the notebook, a Tane attack...!
Reminds me of the contents of the notebook as I run around to the side.
The best thing about laughing pumpkins is this method of attack.
Though I can't travel on my own, I fly the seeds at high speeds and make long-range attacks.
Exactly. They don't seem powerful enough to penetrate the flesh, but they're shocked enough to get beat up.
"GYAHAHA! GYAHAHAHA!
A giant pumpkin spinning on the spot trying to capture me in the front while making a mocking laugh.
I ran as hard as I could and managed to escape that aim.
It's like they're running away from a rotary turret.
The speed of rotation is not that fast, but not enough to keep you relaxed.
But there's no winning chance if you keep running away.
When I made sure I had some leeway, I rushed towards the laughing pumpkin.
"Shh!
"GYAHA!?
On the slightly lateral part of the pumpkin's face, a knife runs.
Hard response.
It feels just like a real pumpkin.
Laughing pumpkins raised their voices as if they were surprised, but they try to turn this way without even wandering at all.
He hasn't been through much damage.
"Damn......!
As the front of his face approached, he ran sideways again.
Due to the close proximity, it is easier to escape the aiming than just now.
The curve can turn faster inside.
But...
"Gu!?
The feeling of something tangling and pulling on my legs.
When I rushed to check, a twat stretching from under the pumpkin was grabbing my leg.
"GYAHAHAHA!"
The laughing pumpkin's face slowly spinning towards me when I stopped moving.
And that mouth finally caught my torso.
"GYAHAAAA!!
"Huh!!
Eggs, dull intense pain.
I barely got a hit on the dovetail because I twisted myself around, but it took a lot of damage to the flank.
I try not to worry about the pain, but I stick my knife in a pumpkin that opens up and laughs.
"Oh, this guy... Huh!
"GYAHAHA! GYAHA!
Attack pumpkin faces over and over so you can hate them.
Twice, three, four times......
But the seed was fired again from the pumpkin's mouth as he tried to make his fifth attack.
"Huh...!
I stop breathing.
Dull and deep pain in the torso.
It's a clean hit.
Unexpectedly the hand holding the knife stops and gets bored.
(sucks......)
My head, which is about to turn bright white with severe pain, alarms me in recognition of the seriousness of the situation.
If you keep taking this kind of damage, there's no way you can attack.
Even now, it's time to keep gripping the knife.
(We keep attacking each other with no-guards and I don't think we can win......! Damn... I can't believe you're so strong...!
Regret spreads in my head.
This is the first time the opponent has seen it, and three more LVs are the enemy above him.
Even though I really wanted the item, it could have been a monster to avoid.
"GYAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAA!!
You sensed my heart was breaking, and a laughing pumpkin shouts out loud.
Defeat.
Those two letters got to my head, and I accidentally glanced.
Pumpkins move their mouths to attack me again.
- But the operation was unintentionally interrupted.
"GYA!? GYAHA!?"
A giant pumpkin that cares behind my back, not mine, while shaking my body.
Hey, what happened...?
When I was confused about the strange condition of the pumpkin, I heard a voice I was used to hearing in the room.
"Saino, I'm going to help you now! Look, fucking pumpkin! Turn around!"
"Let, Doctor...!?
Unexpectedly, I open my eyes to Dr. Harumachi's voice heard from beyond the pumpkin.
If you listen, something burns.
Apparently, the teacher is pining the back of a laughing pumpkin.
"... Huh! Oops!"
"GYAA!?
Squeeze your strength, grip the knife with both hands and stick it against the pumpkin.
The laughing pumpkin, distracted by Dr. Harumachi behind him, screamed at the unintended attack.
I pull myself together and wave the knife down again.
A blow of the whole body and spirit.
A blade eats deep into the laughing pumpkin's forehead, and...
"GYAHA…"
After a slight groan, the pumpkin's huge body all turns into a swarm of light particles.
And those particles were immediately sucked into the floor of the labyrinth, and vanished without a trace.
All that was left was me, the teacher, and the chest.
The teacher still had a pine light and his body was shaking badly.
"Doctor... thank you"
I bow my head to Dr. Harumachi while still rubbing my painful stomach.
I definitely couldn't win on my own.
The victory is definitely due to the teacher.
But the teacher wasn't happy at all, and on the contrary, he ran over to me in tears.
"Simino...! You idiot...... Huh!
Soft feel and good smell.
I realized late that I was being held, and I finally lost my physical strength.
Dr. Harumachi hugs me hard like that and asks me in tears.
"Why are you doing such a dangerous thing...?
………… ... because there's a labyrinth there, can't you?
"You've decided no, you idiot...!
To my answer, Dr. Harumachi strengthens his arm like he's angry.
And while I left myself to it, I sighed one.
Apparently, it's made me quite worried.
Though it's natural because it has shown so much struggle.
Dr. Harumachi keeps messing with me over and over again.
My hugging hand won't let me go for long.
But with that scolding, I was thinking blurry and weird.
(Doctor, I wonder if it could be about me... I like it, it could be)
Lasts forever, reprimand and embrace.
That doesn't feel like just the kind of thing you do to your students.
I'm seriously worried about me, and I really care about you.
That's what I feel.
"Are you listening, Saino? I'm mad at you...!
"Yes, I'm listening."
You noticed this one is out of your mind, and the teacher puts a strong force on your arm.
While I replied to that, I felt somewhat happy and embraced my teacher back.
The teacher continued the sermon regardless... it was more than half an hour after I was finally released.
◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇
"... hmm"
After a lengthy sermon.
The teacher finally walked away from me and turned away from Puy.
My eyes and cheeks are red because I cried.
That's a look I've never seen.
(... cute)
I exhale one thing while I hold such feelings for obstinacy.
In the meantime, the battle and the sermon are over.
Now I can finally open the chest.
I originally came to the second level to get this contents.
"Oops."
Kneel in front of the chest and open the lid.
What's in it... What is this?
It glows silver, like a metal vessel.
Shape and size, close to the cup.
But there's a string on top of the bottom that's round, and obviously you can't put it on your desk.
It is also characterised by the wide spread of the mouth area.
I still took the instructions that were in there with me and read the contents.
"Dreamdemons make bells," striking and ringing with metal, can leave those closest to the user unconscious for ten minutes. The subject's memory of ”nothing” was fabricated and never questioned that memory. Also, the subject dreams of what happened during the unconscious state, that night. Number of times available: twice '
"... I see, was this a bell"
I know who the metal vessel is, and I squirm unexpectedly.
The teacher has been staring at me like that.
"... what the hell is that? Is Saino exploring this place to get something like that?
"Oh, uh... um..."
How should this be answered......
While I think about a lot of things in my head, I can appropriately pronounce meaningless voices and bring them to an end.
... In this item, it would be impossible to make the teacher forget about the labyrinth.
Besides, I can't force you to keep a secret.
Though I was expecting it, it didn't seem like a very situational item.
But...
Khan......
Take out the knife and ring the bell with it.
A high, metal-specific sound sounded in the small room… and at the same time, the light went out of the teacher's eyes.
(I don't know if this is okay, but let's do it anyway)
It comes to mind, one measure.
I had no certainty that it would work, but I had no other means to do it.
Complete gambling.
But, well, no, but it's based on.
"Doctor..."
I approached Dr. Harumachi, who was unconscious, and...
"I like it......! I can't keep this feeling down anymore......!
I whispered that and hugged him hard.
