Chapter 29

ISEKAI NI KANADERU DENSETSU – 29

Kanade Vs Kokkochief

After I <Identified> the details about Lexa’s ability, I glanced at her face before telling her about it, and she seemed unable to hide her unusual anxiety feeling .

She was very restless . Too restless, to the point she did something that she usually never did in front of me, she was continuously stroking her hair with her nail . She was continuously whirling the tip of her twin-tail with her fingertips .

I absolutely wanted to take a picture of her but, I wanted take a video more, after recording the video, then I’d show it to Lexa . Then, with her face dyed red she would angrily say “When did you take such a thing!”, I could easily imagine it .

As I thought, Lexa was very fun to tease right?!

Oops, it wasn’t the time to imagining such a thing . I should tell Lexa about her ability first .

“Lexa, I’ve understood the details of your ability . ”

“Ho- how was it? Could it be really something useless after all?”

“No, according to my conjecture, if you use it properly you could also use this ability in battle . ”

“For real!? Please tell me about the detail more!”

Oh, at last she smiled . This was the smile I wanted to see!

“Of course, Lexa, your connection ability is… . ”

At the time I was about to tell Lexa about its details…

“There are several Kokkopipos coming… desu!”

Runoir who was looking out the surrounding shouted such, noticing that there were some Kokkopipos approaching .

“Mou, even though it’s at the interesting part! Runo-chan, where do they come from?”

“From behind… desu, Lexa-san . The distance is around 30 meters… desu . ”

Runoir was even able to estimate the distance . She was so capable .

The kokko group was still a distance away . Since we wanted to raise our level too, it should be the time I and Lexa dealt with them .

“Lexa, we will take care of them . Runoir, you stay away for now . When there’s a change of the situation, I’ll leave the backing to you . ”

“Very well! Let’s do it!”

“Roger… desu . Please be careful… desu . ”

While we were waiting for them to show themselves, they were gazing at us from between the gaps of the trees, we could confirm the appearance of four Kokkopipos .

“Wai, there are four of it! I’ll take care the two at the left!”

“Roger . If it’s too hard for you then just tell me . I’ll definitely come to save you . ”

“T- thank you . It isn’t the time for chatting!”

“They’re coming . ”

Finally the Kokko groups came out of the tree’s shadow and made a move toward here .

…the one at the right end looked far bigger than the other Kokkopipos .

Since I was bothered by it so I <Identify> it .

Don Kokkopipo | Male

Level                         : 26

HP                              : 105

MP                             : 0

Attack Power         : 54

Defense Power      : 35

Agility                       : 49

Charm                      : 6

Luck                          : 14

Ability                       : Cut, skewer

What! Don Kokkopipo!

Its level wasn’t even comparable to an ordinary Kokkopipo .

“Kanade-san! That monster is the boss of these kokko… desu!”

Boss, was it something like their leader? Let’s called it Kokkochief .

“Giieeeee!!”

“!?”

Without overlooking the instant opportunity when I was <Identifying> it, Don Kokkopipo bent its body and stuck out its tusk . Then, with a powerful kick to the ground, charging like a rocket, it approached my chest .

“Kanade! Watch out!”

“Avoid it desu!”

Lexa’s POV

Eh?

 Without me and Runo-chan noticed it, Don Kokkopipo was already in front of Kanade, and while writhing in suffer, it rolled over to the ground . Bluish blood was flowing out of both its eyes and neck… . What happened?

Since the other Kokkopipo seemed not understand what happened either, they stopped their legs .

Then Kanade calmly stabbed his bronze sword at Don Kokkopipo’s chest, and finished it off .

“There are still three left, don’t let your guard down Lexa . ”

Wait! It wasn’t like I was letting my guard down, it was just there were too many thing to retort about! Wasn’t Runo-chan dumbfounded too!

“The remaining three, as planned I’ll take care two if it, and the last one should be dealt by Runo-chan . Kanade please just stand firmly there . ”

“…why?”

Afterward, without any much resistance, the remaining three Kokkos were subjugated by us .

Kanade’s POV

“Then, Kanade, what did you do at just now? For me, it looked like the Don Kokkopipo suddenly collapsed though… . ”

“I didn’t understand what happened too… desu . I’m curious about it… desu . ”

After subjugating all of the Kokko and stripped the Don Kokkopipo, Lexa and Runoir threw such questions to me .

What should I do? I just stopped the time and then stabed the kokkochief’s eyes and neck with sword but… . <Time stop>, since I could easily aim at my opponent’s weakness so it’s very convenient . Also, it would be perfect if I could extend the stopped time though .

Would it be okay if I just told them “I stopped the time”? I’d already quite trusted Lexa and Runoir, I even considered them as my comrades . But, this and that were something different . As a mysterious man, quiet and cool, now let’s just tell them that it was just something like special moves .

“That was something like my special moves that could only be used once in five minutes . ”

“Special moves?”

“What is it… desu?”

What, was there no concept of special moves in this world?

“In the first place, it was similar like at the first time I met you right, Lexa . ”

“Ah, was that about the time you instantly killed those two goblins?”

“That’s right . ”

“At that time I was too focused to fight the goblins, so actually I didn’t see it . And so practically it was the first time I saw it . ”

“An attack with… speed that couldn’t be followed by eyes… nodesu?”

Lexa, you once confidently said that you saw it, didn’t you? Well, whatever .

But I was grateful that both Lexa and Runoir were misunderstand about it . This, it was better to just follow this flow .

“That’s right, that was an attack that couldn’t even be followed by eyes . It’s okay if you want to praise me . ”

“As I thought you are amazing, Kanade!”

“Amazing… desu! Master(Shishou)!”

Both of them really believed it . They were too gullible which even made me worry .

What Runoir said, she said Master but, statuses-wise Runoir’s was still higher than mine though . The world sure was mysterious .

At this rate, it seemed like they would be easily fooled by a bad person .

Ah, come to think of it, after subjugating the Kokkochief, I heard a sound notification that my level had increased .

Come out, status .

Is seemed that my level had increased by two . What? Outside my prediction, my statuses values increased considerably high . Even with Celestial Being’s effect the increase was amazing . Was the status’s growth not constant? Like when my level increased from level one to level two, I thought the growth would be the same but that seemed wasn’t the case . Could it be, was it depending to the monster we subjugated?

Rather than leveling up by killing a lot of small fries, there’s a possibility that by defeating a strong opponent your status would increase more . Maybe it’s similar like a prize after clearing a trial . How’s that Dr . <Identify> . Please give me your enlightenment .

『The statuses growth at each levels up』

When you leveled up, your condition, place, luck etc, there were many elements that may affect your statuses growth . And, the stronger the monster you defeat, the higher your statuses would grow .

I see… .

At least, it was already a certain that the stronger the monster, the higher your status would increase! Thank you very much, Doctor .

Nevertheless, five seconds limit of the stopped time was very tight! Depending on its holder’s growth, when would it extend?

There was no one to answer my question .
