"Arienol, tell me more about Cocatrice!
"Become... Why should I ask you a favor... Even you know that's inappropriate as the person to choose..."
Arienol shows confusion in my attitude. Can't you just keep losing to me?
"I don't really understand the nature and characteristics of Cocatrice. But if we don't cooperate, at least until we defeat Cocatrice, we'll lose you too. If it weren't for Cocatrice, we wouldn't be in a decent mess!
"Mmm... that's right..."
Arienol also doesn't like the BBQ turning into hard bread.
"Cocatrice often acts alone. And he eats frogs, rats and little birds within his territory. What you're eating is close to an owl or something. If I petrify it, I won't be able to eat it myself. I generally fall asleep at night, but from day to evening, I look for feed and eat leaning."
"So now is your chance to encounter it."
"Conversely, if you fall asleep in a habitat, you can't find it first. So it's hopeless to catch you at night. Until sundown."
Great ingredient for the BBQ Games, I see.
"Thanks! I knew Arienol was only born in the woods and I know more about it!
"I don't have to say anything extra... I'm not happy to be complimented by you at all! Instead, you're just ignorant!
Arienol, of course, doesn't honestly say thank you, but it doesn't seem like a lot. Because of the compliments, my face is just a little red, too.
"If this stuff, my clan, makes black magic a business in the Morco Forest, it's self-evident... It's also my job to undo what was wrongly stoned by Cocatrice..."
Really? Even black wizards have different specialties depending on the environment in which they work.
There is no such thing as cocatrice in urban areas. So you don't need knowledge of it, and you don't deepen it.
But the forest based black wizard naturally has to learn more about forest life.
Aren't Arienol empty because he didn't know what he was good at? Sometimes I can't keep it alive because I hardly ever get the challenge of being able to use my forest knowledge.
"All right, let's decide on a division of roles. Arienol needs to find out where Cocatrice is. Instead, I'll take care of the danger."
"Are you sure? Even if you recover from petrification, you may still have sequelae. You know, your shoulder stiffness gets rough."
That's a plain nasty sequelae......
"And the recovery of petrification isn't 100 percent. Some people die just like that. So I can't really recommend it"
"Arienol, you're so sweet."
There was a weird time.
Soon after, Arienol's face turns bright red at once.
I also reflected a little bit on the poor way I put it. I don't know if it feels like I'm stirring you up...
"What weird things to say! I, the proud black wizard, will show gentleness to you, the enemy, and, oh, it can't be! It's not insane!
"Yeah, I don't know anything about Arienol's emotions, or maybe they resent him there"
"Well, don't be so gentle!
"But objectively, I think it's important to be able to say it's dangerous. Like this, even a guy I can't really forgive, but you're trying to reach out for the least for once... Isn't that one of those gentle things?
Did my explanation make sense? Anyway, Arienol could normally be a good guy. Well, even if he's a good guy, he's enemy certified, so it's troublesome there.
"You... you're a weird guy... I hate you more and more..."
Apparently, my remarks were a lot of failures. But I don't care now because the original rating was close to the lowest. 'Cause I'm not going down any further.
"Okay. If you want to die that far, you won't stop the role. But don't ever try to pin me down until I tell you to move, okay? Cocatrice is very alert. Halfway out is the most dangerous thing. If overconfident, even veteran caucatrice capture becomes stone"
That means don't move until you know it's safe.
I knew you'd show me around. I won't tell you because if I say that, they'll deny it.
We walked into the woods carefully, little by little. Even so, compared to the other pair, I think it was quite ahead of us. It seems that Cocatrice is not solidified somewhere, so density is not much different if it's in the same forest.
"Not here either. All right, next. Next!"
Arienol is removing two sticks for dowsing from the way out.
"Is that magic? And the one that finds minerals and water veins, you can't have animals..."
"Shut the fuck up! This is how ancestors last!
I was half-hearted, but I can't tell where Cocatrice seems to be, so I just have to obey.
But after about twenty minutes of walking, the dowsing bent stick circled around.
"Close, close!
"Is that such a fast, spinning thing!?
"Anyway, I'm in this heap! Just shut the fuck up for a second!
And it really had a tail like a Cockatrice snake.
I haven't noticed this one yet. He's got his tail pointed.
"Okay, it's my job from here on out."
I gently draw my magic formation with my wand.
Use "mental domination (moderate)". I used to be able to use bees even with another ranked power. If it works again this time!
Kuru, Cocatrice turns this way.
Why, you look like you don't know if you're coming this way. All right, it's working!
All you have to do is get him close to the front of you and put a knife to finish there.
But this one also uses mental power. Anyway, if it's a mouth or a puffy, it's a stone's throw, but it keeps its mouth close.
I managed to concentrate, concentrate... And that's about thirty seconds at most...
At that time, something hit the wand and blew away.
"Wow, bad! The dowsing stick spinned too much and blew it up!
Indeed, with one hand of Arienol, the leftover dousing rod is probably turning.
"There's something wrong with that!
But it was a bad thing.
Cocatrice is staring at us. You've also solved the magic of spiritual domination...
