Kuishinbo Elf - Chapter 53

Chapter 53

Escape

Rare Beast Corner .

My eyes remain closed and for the most part, I grasp the situation through sounds .

The situation … isn’t good . I feel like I’m being pushed back and Hermit crab-kun appears to be tired as it doesn’t sound like there is much momentum in his swing .

“Danan, are the smelly people still coming?”

“Their number had decreased by quite a bit, but they’re still coming . But, damn it’s bright!”

Deal with it . If I don’t glow, we’ll lose .

However, even I am starting to get tired . Isn’t shining ball’s cost efficiency quite bad~?

…Nn? It seems to sound noisy somewhere else . I move my ears up and down, trying to pick up the sounds . Lots of … footsteps . When I concentrate on the sound … a conversation? What is it? Did some adventurers came?

… Its heading towards this way!

The ones who had came in after scattering the smelly people are …

“El ! !”

“Fua! ? Ed! ?”

Why is it that Edward had came?

Oiiiii! The general had came out! What is happening! ?

“Yo … Your Highness! ? Why are you at a place like this! !”

Alp-ossan was also surprised . Well, you would be surprised, wouldn’t you?  I was also surprised and ended up making a stupid sound .

“Everyone! Are you okay! ? … Uwa, what is that! ?”

Folbert also came! ? Even Ganzurok! There are also so many more! !

“Disgusting!” “Disgusting!” “So dirty! !” “This is seriously laughable!”

Words of abuse came from the students . Doggie, you may cry now . And by the way, who was the one who said, “This is seriously laughable!” ! ?

“Vuooooooo! !”

You see! Because everyone said things like that, it got angry! Quickly apologize! Quickly! Quickly!

“Restrain it with magic!”

Following Ed’s command, the students invoked their magic at once . A tremendous amount of offensive magic . Rioto and Linda leaped out of the way … and came running towards us .

The numerous amount of magic bombarded the doggie . As expected, the doggie had to stop its movement . However … to finish it, that wasn’t enough .

“What … is that thing?”

Ed’s face clouded when he saw that the doggie appeared to had taken zero damage .

“Your Highness! Half-baked attacks doesn’t work on that guy! Furthermore … it learns from the attack and take up appropriate measures against them!”

The students started to stir . I was so surprised that I had stopped glowing . It is definitely not because I got tired, okay?

… Sorry, I actually was tired . (Trembling voice)

“So if we don’t take it down in one hit, it’ll learn . It seems that there is no other choice, but to bring it outside the mansion and settle this there . If it is outdoors, you should be able to use advanced magic right?”

Ed immediately thought of a measure .

“Yeah, about that … we won’t be able to go outside if we don’t hinder this guy . ”

Hindering…

Nn? You said hindering it just now?

“I have a good idea . ”

“The pitfall?”

That’s right, senpai! I will show you the pitfall that I had improved since that day!

I confronted the doggie . And then … I prostrated towards the doggie .

“E… El?”

Edward called out to me worryingly . Hey! I’m up to the good part right now so leave me alone!

“Sorry! I would do anything, so forgive us!”

I begged the doggie for forgiveness . Everyone stares at me worryingly… .

I quickly took a glance at the doggie .

Apparently, it is slowly approaching with a face as if it had won . Does it have intelligence? However, that intelligence will cost you your life… ! !

When the doggie had came in front of me … the doggie’s forefoot sank into the ground and he fell forward into the pitfall . … Serves you right!

“Kuokuokuo…! You careless fellow … this is the improved pitfall . Enjoy you time in the quicksand!”

It’s not like I prostrated because I wanted to . That was a necessary action for me to use the improved version .

The original pitfall could’ve been made while standing, but …

It had the weakness of easily being spotted .

However, the improved version made to leaves a thin layer of the ground and dig under that thin layer, resulting it to be harder to spot . To leave the surface intact … in a natural looking way, I have to invoke the magic while touching the ground . Therefore, I prostrated .

If I did that, the doggie with intelligence will get cocky and get closer, thinking that it had won . That was what I thought when I acted, but … it fell for it perfectly .

And then, he was greeted by the refreshing sands . The you struggle … the deeper down you’d go . Fuhihi! Struggle … struggle as much as you want! ! (Evil Face)

“Now!”

Wa~! Hermit Crab-kun and us quickly retreated . The exhausted Linda rode on Hermit Crab-kun .

“Hermit Crab-kun is fast~!”

“Danan! Don’t lose!”

“Wha! ? Don’t be unreasonable! !”

I am getting carried by Danan on his back . Un, my legs are … damn slow . Excuse me!

“Edward-sama! The zombies had all been taken care of!”

We joined with silver drill on the way .

“Ou! Gluten … you appear to be perfectly fine!”

You guys had also came …

We also joined up with the mischievous three man group, Mafti, Gordon, and Bruton . We safely left the mansion … without losing a single person .

“El-chan! Welcome back!”

Oou … even Tanu-ko came! ? Being so reckless … (T . N . Tanu-ko is referring Preena, the tanuki/raccoon beastkin . She is a tanuki, hence being called tanu-ko . )

“Ah, I’m back, Preena . ”

I’ll pat your head for you . “Ehehe…” While laughing, she closed her eyes as it felt pleasant . Yep, so cute…

“Everyone listen! After awhile, a monster will show up here! Alphonse-sensei will be defeating it with advance magic … we would be sealing the its movements!”

“OHHHHHHHHHH! !” Everyone raised a cry .

Uwa, my tension is also riiiiiiiising!

“El, you would be healing in the back . ”

“Ahh, Gan-chan you meanie!”

And sure enough, I was sent somewhere else before I could cause anything .

Alp-ossan had started to construct his magic . It seems that even if you’re skilled a troublesome magic structure is needed for advance magic . If power is emphasized, the structure will be constructed in such a way . If speed is emphasized, the structure will be simplified . Of course, the power will drop .

Alp-ossan had chosen the former . It would take about 5 minutes … before the magic invokes .

Everyone swallowed their breath and waited . About 2 minutes later … that guy showed itself .

The mansion’s entire entrance was … destroyed!

“What … IS THAT! ?”

Someone raised a voice that is close to a scream . Well, anyone would .

What came out … wasn’t the doggie from before, but the tip of a incredibly large lump, a monster with a stupidly huge mouth attached . Due to its incredibly large body, its movements are slow, but we must not be careless because countless amount of tentacles are coming out of its body . And it is slowly coming towards me .

“It’s me again … why is it targeting me?”

“Isn’t it because you look soft and delicious?”

Rick … I will make you cry later .

“Kouhai, prepare for heal . Priority is given to those who injured their feet . ”

“Understood . ”

Instructions were given in my head . Now that it had come to this, the only thing I would be concentrating on is healing . And everything else … I could only leave it everyone else .

“It’s here! Battle start! ! Invoke the magics! !”

At Edward’s command, magics are simultaneously fired at the lump bastard . The magics continued to strike the lump bastard without a pause . However … it wasn’t able to stop it .

“Stop the bombardment! Then we will attack it directly! Let’s go! !”

Edward and the others held up their weapon and charged towards the lump bastard . The countless tentacles strikes back at them .

“Keh! I won’t be scared to fight something like this! !”

Ganzurok dodged the tentacles and delivered a blow to the lump bastard . Good job! Gan-chan! !

Everyone had started to divide into two groups . One that attacks the tentacle and the other one attacks the main body . Such coordination . These aren’t movements of seven year old kids … how dreadful .

2 minutes before magic invokes! Do you best … everyone! !
