Skeleton Knight, in Another World

Early in the morning, when the light of day was still hidden in the shadows of the Wind Dragon Mountains in the east, and the sky was crossed by shades of night and morning border, I had finished my breakfast early and came as far as the dragons of the Grand Canyon.

In front of me, the foothold of a stripped rock, which cannot even be called a path about the width of one person, continues down the cliff, as it snaps into a cliff.

As the morning mist hanging in the forest drifted down the cliff as if it were a stream of river water, the forest that was spreading to the bottom of the Grand Canyon that we saw yesterday had disappeared by a cloudy sea on one side. Its ocean, literally made of clouds, is incrementally changing its white pattern as if pulsed by the tide.

Occasionally, wind streams that blow up to the cliffside block sight at once by making sure they crawl up from the bottom and deliver cloud splashes to the cliffside woods.

The road leading down the cliff cannot be walked straight in armor with its shoulder-width width, and crabs walk down to the cliff. Ponta fits in Arian's chest valley for the reason that he needs to be flown by the wind, and he can't see it walking behind him.

Carefully descending down the road to the bottom of the cliff, keeping his body from being taken by the daunting 'Night Sky Jacket', he eventually arrived in front of the entrance to the cave halfway down the cliff.

In terms of the high and low difference from the cliff, it is a position about fifty meters down, with a snooping deep darkness as if to open a big mouth and invite it to the ground.

He looked up at the cave as he sighed in front of the cave where his feet had widened.

The entrance to the cave is quite large, about five metres high and more than horizontal, with a fairly large entrance open. In the back, mossy rock shelves seemed to staircase and lead to the back of the cave, to the bottom of the earth.

"There are warcraft in the cave, so proceed with caution."

That's what Arian said, and when he took the lantern-shaped crystal luminescent lamp (crystal lamp) out of the backpack he was carrying, he turned the light on and made it pay for the darkness in the cave.

Simultaneously, you and Chiyome remove the crystal light (crystal lamp) from their luggage and turn it on. The lights became stronger and the back of the cave lit up.

But still, deep in the cave, it remains closed to darkness, and we cannot look beyond it.

You can't even use the Dimensional Walking Method (Dimensional Move) to earn distance.

With a crystal light (crystal lamp) in one hand, Arian takes the lead and advances his foot behind the cave, followed by himself and Chiyome.

From time to time a cold air breeze blows out of the bottom of the ground, and there is a quiet space just for the footsteps the three of them walk in, apart from the creepy sounds echoing in the cave.

Besides the path of the cave, there were also narrow branches that deviated from some sides, but Arian did not go that way, but went down the road.

I had already come as far back as I could not see the entrance to the cave.

"We talked about the Warcraft living there, but you don't see it like that..."

Raise the crystal light (crystal lamp) as you gaze into the surrounding darkness.

Then when Ponta, who was on Arian's shoulder going to the head, rang with an alarming voice, she pulled out her lower back sword to react to it.

"Ki-yun!

"Giant bat!"

Ahead of Arian staring up, it was a large bat a metre long and two metres wide when he spread his wings, sticking to the ceiling in the cave. Its large bat, with ears similar to the fishes (eh), ripped out its long fangs and made a strange noise, dozens of them jumped and attacked at once from the ceiling.

The bats flying in irregular orbits simultaneously stripped their fangs: Arian, the leader, and Chiyome, who was in the palace.

Dozens of groups push toward the two of them without looking toward the one who was between them.

"That's depressing with all the numbers!

"Kicun!

Ariane slams the bats that came in in time with exactly a touch of armor. Ponta on his shoulder is rarely showing a jerk, providing cover to disturb the flight of bats approaching with wind around Arian.

The bats stirred by the wind are slashed and torn apart with Arian's sword where the movement solidifies for a moment. The fact that Ponta is fast may not be a very high threat as a bat individual.

"Water, water hand back sword!!

Chiyome in the rear slams down the bats coming at him with a brilliant body, and throws a backsword made of water at the bats who escape in time to shoot them off.

Speaking of himself, he was completely ignored, attacking some bats desperate to strike them, swinging a sword from behind, slapping and slashing them.

This is also an irregular way to fly, I'm not sure I'll let my magic hit me. Let high motion vision say things and force the bats to turn into corpses.

But no matter how great the sword, the bats in the air cannot reach it.

Looking at the bats flying around the perimeter, I recall a battle move that had previously marked one of the bandits.

"[Fei Long Slash]!"

When bats flying through the air unleash their battle skills to fly an invisible slaughter, the bats who were in orbit are severed and dropped to the ground.

It is a fairly good combat technique as a medium range means of attack, but an invisible attack is also difficult to use because it does not even look like an ally. Wrong isn't the move you use to cover your people.

For now, toward the bats in the air. Reduce the number of consecutive releases of [Flying Dragon Slash (Wyvern Slash)], the bats eventually scatter and leave.

"Huh, is that like a warcraft, too? For some reason, I didn't seem to see it..."

I wrestle my sword around my sheath and look around as I restock the luggage I was throwing out. There were more than a dozen bat carcasses on the ground around it.

"That's a normal animal, not a warcraft. The arc didn't look very delicious because it's a blood-sucking creature that lives by sipping the fluids of its prey."

Wiping the blood on his sword, Ariane turns her gaze to this side with her eyes that see something slightly ridiculous with the ecology of the earlier giant bat in her mouth.

It is certainly a convincing story that the exterior is made of metallic full-body armor, no water or air free skeletons in any of its contents, and for them it cannot be the object of predation.

Did you detect that there was no contents in the ultrasound?

Looking back towards Chiyome, who was in the rear, Chiyome was picking up the fallen giant bat and stretching out the bat wings.

Lord Chiyome seems to be fine.

"Yes, no problem. By the way, can you eat this? I sometimes eat something smaller than this..."

Chiyome tilts his neck and asks such a question as he shows this way the giant bat with his head slashed off.

I think there were surprisingly many bat-eating areas on the planet, but would she eat small bats?

The people of Yamano, a species that is persecuted and unilaterally engaged in slave hunting, will not be able to do large-scale farming, livestock, etc., so it may be the doctrine of eating anything that can be eaten.

A giant bat with long fangs, a face like that between a pig and a mouse, and ears that resemble a fish mole, doesn't look very tasty just because it looks like it.

Turning his gaze toward Arian, who was in front of him, he guessed the intention or shook his neck beside him and answered.

"We've never eaten either. It doesn't look very delicious..."

Ariane seems to agree with herself.

"If we don't hurry, we won't be out of the cave by the end of the day."

Ariane shows you the path that leads to the back with the crystal light (crystal lamp) in your hand so as to prompt you to go further than that.

"Right, sorry"

Plus Chiyome nods and gives it back, gently putting back on the spot the giant bat he had in his hand with a slightly unfortunate face and goes for a small run after Arian.

Then we crawl through the walls of the cave, a meter long. Haunted Yasde did it, slime familiar with the game's miscellaneous fish that accumulate at the edge of the ground and wait for their prey, etc., and went back, retreating the monsters whose spines get cold when seen in the dark.

They appear unexpectedly from the darkness of the unreachable light, a sight that would normally be quite loud. It may be, for one thing, the body of this skeleton that keeps you calm.

There is still an inept warcraft in front of me, drifting through the cave.

"Is that a warcraft, Lord Arian?

It drifts through the air as if it were a balloon, and there are several eye-like organs peeking into the bulky, soft sphere of the body, from which there are several tentacle-like objects hanging.

The drifting figure is a flying jellyfish sculpture.

I can see it floating everywhere in the cave where it's going. When the spooky figure tried to slash him off with his hand over the pattern of the sword, Arian, who was in front of him, controlled it with his hand.

"That's a spoil, a warcraft that's just floating if you don't hand it out. Instead, if you attack, you scatter poison, so don't get your hands on it."

Saying it's just a floating warcraft, but I guess bugs are the bait to see occasions where a few tentacles tangle and catch featherworms and such flying around that spoil from time to time.

Some eyeballs look around and tentacles prey on insects, which is a fantastic sight, but quite a spine-cold scene.

As he proceeded to the back of the cave avoiding those drifting spoils, a vigilant voice rose from Chiyome, who was at the rear.

"Lord Arian, you smell nasty from the start. Probably undead."

Ariane, who was walking in the lead, stopped her legs and raised the crystal lamp (crystal lamp) high in her hand to peek in the back.

Behind a cave out of light, mixed with the sound of the wind blowing through it, you get the sound of dragging something. Eventually things in the shape of many people crawled out of the darkness from behind.

"Zombies...?

Those eyes, in the shape of people crawling over with their dark-brown discolored skin hands and feet, are vain and show nothing, and strange blemish-like tentacles protrude from the torso and limbs and twitch spookily.

And when I slowly woke up that rotten body, my body cracked vertically left and right to stick from its center, and a large number of tentacles crawled out of it. The way it is, it's like finding a predator, Isogyn Chuck.

"Ha ha!? It's not a zombie, it's a goolworm!!

When Arian's nervous voice sounded in the cave, the other goolworms rose up in unison as if to signal it, kicking the earth and literally jumping on it.

"Jump!?

When I think that I have made a big jump to the outside of the light secured by the crystal light (crystal lamp) to make my appearance dark, I jump all the way down to this side in time.

Fly it back and pull the sword out with the crystal light (crystal lamp) in your hand at the foot of the spot.

Fighting in the dark inevitably comes to a limited extent for me that I can only fight around a light source. It seems okay to stay somewhat far from the light source if the night is as bright as Arian or Chiyome, but he seems to look dressed up if he makes enemies of himself staying near the light source.

Numerous goolworms jump and attack from the dark, wave their swords and try to slap them off, but there is a spoil drifting nearby and they rush back to draw their swords.

A great sword with a great reach is advantageous for fighting multiple battles, but it is a precondition that it is not a small space. If there is anything nearby that should not be involved, it would be a disadvantageous weapon, by the way.

I can't shake a long sword like Ariane, but I can't do the art of shredding and tearing Goolworms away from spoils in flowing trajectories.

"[Judgment Sword]!"

St. Knight's tactical skills that once finished Giant Basilisk with a single blow, slap it to the feet of one of the landed goolworms.

A magic formation unfolds at the foot of the goolworm to signal that the light has gathered and shined down on the sword, from which the sword of light rises toward the ceiling of the cave. But Goolworm jumps up again before that, and ends up just plundering the blade of the sword of light.

It's like a big bat or flea to jump around in the size of a human being, and it's hard to narrow down the target. In addition to not being as targeted as the Giant Basilisk, it is said that it moves quickly, and in [Judgment Sword (Judgment)], it is stuck at the point of momentary accumulation.

When you give up interception with a sword or something early and return the sword to the sheath of your hips, you get out ahead of Arian with the crystal luminescent lamp (crystal lamp) that was left on the ground.

"Firstly, consolidate the people in the way! [Whirlwind Invitational (Bling Warwind)]!!"

"What, Ark!?

He activated Arian elsewhere, who raised a flash of surprise, the Range of Wind Attribute Magic Skills of the Magic Instructor Occupation (Job) forward.

A whirlwind rolls from a point centered around me, and a strong wind blows into the cave toward the tip of the swept hand.

The spoil, which was drifting through the air, blows into the back of the cave by its strong wind. But the jumping goolworm comes this way to the extent that it is slightly stirred up by the wind and out of balance.

Now activate another magic skill without letting your hair in.

"[Rock Fang]!"

At the same time as the activation, a sharp fangled rock breaks through the ground on a hard rock bed, forested so that several of them grow to cover the ground and pierce the goolworm that was flying up and around.

The goolworms, dressed in their bodies in a fangled rock, clearly slowed down their movements and began to try to get out of that pierced rock somehow.

In this state, there is no making to stab a stop, so I tried to speak to Ariane and Chiyome who were behind me, but before that it was Ariane who raised his voice again.

"Hey, Ark! Activating ground-based magic in a cave like this...!!

He was Arian, who raised his voice somewhat like a rush, but the second half of the words were scratched off by the sudden sound of what had happened.

When the foot that has stood so far suddenly collapses and a large hole is formed, one's body rolls down with a crushed scaffold that collapses to be swallowed there.

"Wuuuuuuuuuu!?

The vision rotates hard and the speed at which it rolls off increases. I manage to calm down my rolling body and rebuild my posture, but I'm not going to be able to stop slipping down the walls of the cave like I'm on a jet coaster through a narrow hole.

I feel like an Indian Jones in a trap.

"The magic of the terrestrial system affects the ground, so it's not normally used in caves or closures!

When I tilted my body and looked back as it slipped into that voice from behind, I saw Arian and Chiyome slipping down the wall there as well as myself.

Apparently, they were both involved in an earlier collapse together. Ponta also looks safe on Arian's chest.

I honestly apologize for my fall when I never thought there would be such a topographical effect on the magic of terrestrial attributes.

"Sorry! Let's just find a place to stand and get back from there with transfer magic!

The crystal luminaire (crystal lamp), which was also firmly gripped when it fell, was able to secure the lights without losing its earlier impact, thus eliminating the darkness that slipped away.

Occasionally, a rock stuck out of his head hits him, but the rock is crusher and slips into the back without stopping.

Eventually the darkness around him suddenly cleared up and popped out into the great space as far as I could see.

The steep slopes that seemed to tumble and fall also weaken the speed at which they slip turning into a loose slope, creating further room to look around.

Its large space, which appeared at the bottom of the ground, despite being in the cave, the whole area was raised by blurry blue light, reflecting a fantastic landscape in its eyes.

"Look, there's a lake in the basement. And that...!?

A voice rose from Chiyome, who was at the rear, and looked ahead to her indication, and she saw clear water covering most of the bottom of the ground. At the bottom of that huge underground lake, the blue and white lights are lit everywhere, creating a strange landscape.

And incredibly, a huge ship docked on the shore of a lake right next to the wall that was just slipping off, even though it was an underground lake.
