The Dungeon Struggle of an Earth Dragon!

2. Ann's Dungeon Return! Part 2

In conclusion, Anne instantly killed the humans.

Even individuals possessed the power of generals, and further deteriorated the holy sword Levertine and Anne armed with the sword of the earth dragon, there was no way that merely armed men could come true.

Or perhaps the humans died without knowing what happened.

The torso and the detached neck remained solidified with a blurred expression.

I thought I was strangely dirty, but it doesn't matter.

Orders the termites and skeletons to disguise the bodies.

In the meantime, Ann approaches the falling goblin.

'... are you okay?

"Gi... gi...?

The parent goblin looks at this one wonderfully.

I guess it's strange that I was helped.

Goblins tilting their necks and looking toward Ann.

"Gah!"

From the gap in his arm, Hiccup Goblin makes a face.

It's so creepy.

"If I punish you for this, I will not come out of the woods. There's no such thing as an ex-child."

The parent goblin nods cocklessly.

If you were a child goblin, you wouldn't know what the situation was, you were laughing.

It's so creepy.

"Gi......"

My parent, Goblin, offered Ann something.

'Is this... a herb, is it?

Goblins snort.

I guess it means thank you.

I'll take it honestly.

Head down, Goblin parents and children left to the back of the woods.

"Now, do you want to resume the journey"

I wasted a lot of time.

Finally, Anne and the others stepped into the woods.

◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇

Is it normal to walk to the cave of purpose for about thirty minutes?

Ann's hometown should have been near it, too.

Walking in the woods for a while, I went out to a small lake.

'Well... there was a lake here...'

Ann breathes in admiration with a quiet view.

When I used to live here, I didn't know there was a lake like this.

The truth is that I didn't know much about this forest because it was caged in a nest, and since it was thrown out, I haven't remembered.

"Beautiful view......"

Fantastic views of the forest and sky reflected on the water.

Was the forest where I lived such a beautiful place......

Is this who you call home sad?

But I'll get back to you soon.

'Ko, I'm not here to see the view this time! Ahead -'

Let's hurry ahead - that was the next moment I thought so.

Suddenly, a blister came up from the lake and something appeared.

"Shaaaaaa......"

It was a giant water snake.

What kind of race was that?

I forgot, but it must have been a demon of strength fighting for one or two in this forest.

I don't know if I have to stay the way I was before, and I'm not a big enemy to Anne, who evolved into Imperial Ant.

The magic I feel is also weak.

It would be intermediate strength at best.

Even a few termites who refrain behind can win enough, but Ann lowers the termites and leaves in front.

He must have come out mistakenly thinking he'd been roughed up his territory for the most part.

I would never have gone beyond that if I could negotiate.

"Sher! Sher!

'You've been killing me for a long time. Don't you think we can discuss it?

Too bad.

Ann pulls out her sword.

I can't run much time.

Let's just kill him.

But it was the moment Anne tried to run away.

"Shah......"

Batan, and.

The water snake fell on the spot.

'... what?

Anne floats a question mark.

I have done nothing.

Looking back, the termites and the skeletons said, "I didn't do anything. Okay?" He shook his head.

So, what do you mean?

The water snake in front of me is sluggishly tongued and bicumbicum trembling.

... opium face?

"Xy, xy!

'Mm, what's up?

The whole termite thing complains about something.

If you look at the one facing the child, there was an arrow stabbed in the side of the water snake.

'... I see you were already fighting someone before we got here'

If you look closely, there are scratches all over his body.

It's a sign of battle.

More trembling movements in this little carving.

Probably had paralysis or some sort of poison on the arrow.

It's a smart human thought hand.

But when he saw Tokoro without the body, did he escape, or was he swallowed whole again?

Well, either way.

Now it's a water snake in front of me.

"Was the poison spinning and unable to move? I mean, how stupid of you to show up before us in that state. '

If that's the case, you should wait for the dive poison to fall out at the bottom of the lake.

I can only assume that we lack a sense of crisis when we cannot discern the strength of our magic.

No, was it poison and that feeling mahi too?

Either way, it's a dumb story.

I'm sure he was caught off guard in the battle ahead.

It probably wouldn't have ended like this if we had made more use of the local interest and stood around better.

'At all, how unusual...'

This is not the most powerful demon in this forest, unfortunately.

Leave it like this, it won't be long.

But I can't help it.

It's a natural dish too.

They are eliminated from the cautious, the weak.

I can't help it.

In the first place, they tried to attack us.

I don't have an in-laws to help you, and let's just leave it like this.

We should.

- If you noticed, Ann was pulling out an arrow and performing a hemostasis.

◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇

In conclusion, the water snake was helpful.

Herbs I got from an earlier goblin.

That herb has become a special effect on the poison.

"SHER! SHER! SHER!

A water snake that hits and changes and raises an energetic voice from earlier.

My earlier vigilance rubs my cheeks against Anne, like a lie.

Stop it, it's wet, it's disgusting.

"Grow up because you're sick."

When Ann says so, the water snake stops moving perfectly and looks at Ann.

Apparently, he totally trusted this one.

'... is that good? If you punish me for this, I will stop selling fights if I get nasty. It's good to be proud of your strength, but if you look at them wrong and die, you don't have a child. "

Cochri and the water snake nod.

"Shah......"

'Hmm? What is it?

The water snake has cleverly used his tail and offered something.

That was a giant egg about the size of a basketball.

'Is this... a madara water turtle egg?

I had seen it before when I lived in this forest.

Madara Water Turtle is a monster living in this lake.

A tortoise about four metres long, never a strong demon.

I'm very alert and spend most of my time at the bottom of the lake.

And the egg is rarely a high-end ingredient that you can't speak of.

Ann had only spoken once, too. I was delicious.

I guess you're going to thank me.

I'll take it honestly.

The water serpent bowed his head and went back to the bottom of the lake.

'... at all, I stopped by again'

The itinerary is a lot behind schedule.

But, well, I got a good souvenir for Master Earth.

Ann hurried to the cave of purpose.

◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇

Continue along the path of the beast.

Much closer.

It was an arrow tip that I thought I would get there in a few minutes if I stayed this way.

"Coon......"

Even then I could hear the beast.

Now what?

Ann looks at the voices.

There was one little wolf.

There doesn't seem to be any hostility.

'... are you a grey wolf child? Did you even go off with your parents?

The child of the grey wolf shakes his head as he sifts.

Then, Curlululu...... and a lovely belly sound rang.

Apparently, he's hungry.

Well, what do we do?

Hi, you wolf.

They expect Anne and the others to feed them.

What happened to your wild vigilance? There is no way to leave.

But what's going to be food on hand now...

………

Ann looks at the eggs she made Skeleton hold.

No, not that one.

I am a souvenir to Master Earth.

You can't do that to such a filthy wild wolf.

... but I don't.

"... Coon?

A wolf looking up at this one with a crisp and adorable upper eye.

Come on, bruise.

- If she noticed, Ann was breaking eggs and giving them to the wolf.

◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇

"One!"

The wolf is perfectly well.

He snuggles up to Ann as he waves his tail.

They seem to have completely missed me.

"Hey, come on! All right, lick where...!? Hi-chan!... Eh, I'm telling you to stop!

"One, one!

Pepper, pepper.

I'm nostalgic enough to think it's really a wild beast.

You must have liked Anne a lot.

'Ha... what shall we do? I just want you to leave...'

Even so, there's no persuasion around holding it tight and indulging in the furrows.

"One!"

Then the wolf rushes out of Ann's arms.

'Ah,' said Anne, raising a voice that seemed unfortunate.

The wolf turned to Anne as she went a little further away.

'Are you telling me to follow you?

"One."

I bark all the time saying yes.

'What shall we do?' And Ann turns back.

The termites and skeletons said, "Let's keep up, shall we? Isn't she cute?" She turns her gaze to Anne.

Right, well, we still have time.

I had no choice, convinced myself I had no choice, and Anne followed the wolf.

◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇

The place we reached was right off the cave.

The biggest tree in this forest.

“Uro" at its root.

The wolf sat there posing.

"Wow!"

'... here is'

Ann looks out for the place unexpectedly.

I'm not talking about where I look familiar.

'Cause that's - that's where Anne used to be.

Under that giant tree.

The uro there is the entrance to the nest.

What if that wolf lived in my mother's community?

It's not an impossible story.

My mother's community had many races...... I feel.

Blah, blah, blah. I don't remember when I was in the cage, but all sorts of demons were in and out of my mother's nest.

Most of them were the weakest demons, but they lived hand in hand.

What if the wolf's mother noticed her visit?

- Anne was running away if she noticed.

I panic. My legs are going to snap on the way too far.

But I'm forced to balance.

Run obsessed.

Immediately, I came to the root of the tree.

Give me this far and my former compatriots will soon notice.

What face should I look like?

What can I say?

Before you do, will you realize it's you?

Strange.

All that, I was breathing in retrospect, but when I actually saw it in front of me, that kind of chi had disappeared somewhere.

There is anxiety, and expectation.

Ann's chest was pounding.

To show my mother who I am.

And -.

"Ah."

I looked inside.

And I was out of line.

There's - nothing, there wasn't.

"Ah."

One ant, he wasn't there.

There were no other demons.

'Oh......'

There's no sign of him living there.

I don't feel magic.

There are no signs of soul...

"Ohhhhhhhhhhh......"

I noticed.

By the way, there were signs of battle.

Human weapons were falling all over the place.

That's it, Ann guessed.

I was able to find out.

The cold part of my head was telling me the answer.

I mean, that's what happened.

My mother's community was hunted.

- By the hands of humans.

'Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!'

- Ann's hometown was long gone.

◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇

"Ku..."

The wolf snuggles up on his feet, but he didn't even know the strength to pay.

More than that, Ann's heart was rubbing off.

It was surprising.

I can't believe I thought about my hometown by now.

I didn't think it mattered.

I was going to give it back to you.

But it didn't come true.

My former compatriots were gone.

- Well, it doesn't matter anymore...

I think that way for a moment.

That's right. Homecoming is not what it should be.

Head toward the cave with the transfer gate, which is the original mission.

Right around the corner.

Let's just get this over with.

Changing their minds, Anne and the others started moving.

The termites stared silently at Ann's lonely hindsight.

As I approached the cave, I noticed strange signs.

"... of people, signs?

That's quite a few, too.

Not only that. There are also many signs of demons.

And this sound.

The sound of a blade colliding with a kin, the sound of something being hit,.

Humans, and demonic screams -.

No way!?

Anne and the others rushed quickly.

In no time, we reached the front of the cave of purpose, where the sight was as wide as expected.

"... are you a bandit at the end..."

It was the appearance of the bandits fighting the demons of the cave that jumped into Anne's eyes on the verge of explosion in many ways no longer.

'I see, we finally have a point of convergence. Is the cause of the noise in this forest Aitsura......!

The identities resemble the first humans to wear goblins.

I'm sure those guys were one of them.

Goblins at forest entrances, water snakes at lakes, and former nests.

Various things combine.

The demons weren't the only ones who wanted to base that cave.

Surely here, it would be a hideout for the humans as well.

That's why I had trouble with these demons in the woods.

What are we gonna do?

Seeing as there is one strangely hand-worked among humans, the demons of the cave also seem to be fighting well there.

If we keep this up, we could fall together.

Further, Ann gazes at the war.

Then...

"Ah."

Unexpectedly Anne raises her voice.

But you won't have to either.

Because I was there.

Among the demons, Killer Ant.

I miss it terribly too, Killer Ant of Magic.

Definitely.

That fighting Killer Ant is definitely Ann's former compatriot.

... were you surviving?

There is a soldier ant.

That means the queen species... my mother, maybe.

Explore the signs.

- There he is.

From behind the cave, I feel the signs of my former compatriots.

... Alive.

He lived.

A feeling of insecurity that I can't help fills my mind.

'Hmm?'

Second, I'm worried about my gaze and turn around.

'... what are you nibbling at?

The termites and skeletons looked at themselves as they nibbled.

No, it's ants and bones, so there's no expression, but that's how it looked.

'Nothing, I don't mean to pinch personal feelings. Because it's a mission. This is a mission.'

Yeah, yeah, and the termites snort.

'So let's just help'

- Anne was running out with her sword in her hand with all her might.

Regardless, I didn't say I was waiting, but termites and skeletons followed.
