My Entire Class Was Summoned to Another World except for Me - Chapter 77

Chapter 77

Now, I can't permit such a banality to take place .

That girl was somewhat in a fluster . Inside a somber room where discerning between right and down was difficult, that girl was watching the face of Kamiya Yato, who was still unharmed, in a reflection as she scowled .

"This is bad, Desu . "

The fact that the invaders were this competent wasn't included in her predictions . The girl couldn't help but feel astonished by her miscalculation . After all, the monster she sent in order to wipe them out ended up being the one that is quelled .

That monster was a precious creature which my master allocated to me for emergency use . He even told me, "Only use this monster when the proper time comes . "

When the girl asked her master back about 'the proper time', he answered: "it is the time when many young girls show up . If you deploy it then, I'm sure someone would be delighted . " The girl didn't quite understand what her master was trying to explain, however she believed that that time had come and released the monster . Although, the result was her ignominious defeat .

Was it because I used it incorrectly .

The girl contemplated for seconds before she gave up thinking about it . It was a shame as it was a monster bestowed to her personally by her master . For her to fruitlessly use it that way, the girl earnestly reflected on her hasty decision and decided to use it effectively next time .

"Next time I will do it better, Desu . "

The girl who ended her phrases in a strange way motivated herself . Now, that she put an end to that matter, it was time for her to come up with a new plan . With that in mind, the girl gazed at the image which reflected the figures of the invaders . They were seemingly conversing and they didn't show a sign of making any fishy move . Inside the room in which the girl was standing, various images of every corner of the island were reflected, in a way that they surrounded her in every side . The girl was able to see through the tiniest details of the island . She was an existence similar to the kernel of the island . Not even a single spot was out of her observation .

"Next is this, Desu . "

Apparently, making an appropriate choice this time, the girl grinned .

It should be alright if I use this . It's a monster which master left for me while saying something like "this is what true banality would look like . " Surely he meant that it would obviously assault them .

With such thoughts in her head, the girl gazed at another reflection .

"This side will get this, Desu . "

She then made another choice as she remained fixing her eyes on the reflected image . The girl couldn’t' believe that another invader entered from the other side, but that didn't matter . The mission she received from her master doesn't change . All she had to do was achieve that mission .

"I won't let anyone approach, Desu . "

Uttering with a serious voice, the girl kept observing the invaders . She had no intention of letting them make it to that place . With that firm resolution filling her heart, the girl began considering further plans and measures . All for the sake of following the order of her master .

——————————————————————————————–

From the moment we plunged inside the dense forest, we did nothing but walk and keep walking . Contrary the appearance of the trees concealing the ground from above, the inside was surprisingly bright and clear . The presence of insects and animals was absent and we couldn't hear a single bird chirping . It was totally quiet .

"This is strange……"

I felt uncomfortable with the eccentric state of the forest .

"What's the matter, Yato-kun?" "It's too quiet in here . "

Although the island was created in a mean to make it impossible to be detected, the complete lack of life inside it was unexplainable . Is something about to happen? I became warier of my surroundings, but still couldn't sense any reaction .

"I agree with you, this is weird . "

Feeling the same as me, Lina carefully looked around her .

"M-Maybe it's just your overthinking . " "You're just raising the flag of something actually happening by saying that . "

Just where did her high spirit go . The faint-hearted Saya fearfully expressed her thoughts . I can't blame her after what she had undergone with that giant octopus . On the other hand, Karen didn't show a sign of faltering and helped Saya to compose herself . Nothing less from my beloved little sister . She was as calm as a lake . While I bitterly smiled as I was listening to their conversation, I suddenly felt a magic reaction coming from the front .

"Everyone stop!"

I ordered everyone to halt their steps immediately after sensing the irregularity, and carefully stared forward .

"Chief~ something is coming . " "Got it . "

Receiving Rouga's warning, I replied with my eyes still fixed frontward . At that instant, a magic circle manifested within a few meters before us and summoned a monster after casting its light .

"H-Hey, is this…" "That's a slime…"

Having a slime summoned in front of our eyes, Lina and I dropped our jaw, overwhelmed by the shock . As for the reason behind receiving a shock from stumbling upon a mere slime, it was simply because it was clearly not a mere slime .

"…… too big . "

The slime standing before us was moving its slippery green, giant body . He was giant enough to absorb even the trees that were near its body, which made it look further more revolting .

"First was an octopus and now a slime…"

It was quite the clished type of monsters to have showed up in this place . As I inadvertently kept staring at the slime, I found myself imagining a certain situation . A situation where a slime was about to attack three young beautiful girls inside an quiet forest .

… that's no good . Things are about to become NSFW .

As I was optimistically imagining such a situation, the slime abruptly started to transform . A part of its body reshaped into tentacles that eventually turned to our direction almost as if they were establishing their aim . Those tentacles were brimming with energy .

"Saya-dono, Karen-dono! Move behind me!!" "I will protect you~ "

Lina and Rouga who guessed the danger of the situation smoothly moved Karen and Saya behind their backs . Taking a second glance, I noticed the trees which were splattered by the slime's body fluid gradually melting . Things will become risky if Saya and the girls were to be caught .

Nevertheless, I'm now facing a light novel-like development again .

Truth to be said, I was somewhat interested in seeing the continuation, Though I was forced to put the show at a stop .

"Freeze . "

Reaching my arm forward, I sharply enunciated that word to the slime . Immediately, a pure white wind, similar to a blizzard, generated from my hand and blew against the slime which started to gradually freeze . It then completely froze in the time of a few moments and didn't shift the slightest . I thrust my fist at the motionless slime . Countless cracks ran through its entire congealed body until it finally crumbled away and turned into dust .

This should fit the bill

After ensuring the utter defeat of the slime, I turned towards the girls .

"Are you okay?" "Y-Yes . " "Fine . " "Looks like you defeated it . " "Chief is amazing~ !"

They all nodded stating that they were safe . But I wonder what was all this about . An octopus, then a tentacle slime… Why are there only obvious monsters that show up?

"What's with this absurd place?" "It's a place made for fun, after all . I can see how everything here was created with the sole reason that it would be amusing . "

Lina responded to my complaints with a voice that seemed taken aback . It's only natural for her to feel that way after realizing that her boss is the type of kids who would set up such absurd antics . Feeling sympathy towards Lina, I moved my lips to call for everyone to move, but got interrupted—-

BOOM!!

A sound of explosion reached us from the far distance .

"W-What was this sound…" "An explosion?" "But why here out of all places?"

Bewildered by the sudden sound of explosion, the three girls gazed in the direction of the sound . I had the exact same thought as of Lina's remark . Why would an explosion occur here out of all places? Nobody is supposed to be here except for us . As I fell in thought, trying to figure out the cause of the explosion, Rouga stood before me and urged me to be vigilant .

"Something is on the way, chief!"

I tried using【Presence sensation】but I couldn't pick anything from it .

Is it perhaps suppressing its presence?

Another doubt appended to my already disordered brain and I could feel the explosions gradually approaching us .

Looks like it's really coming this way .

"Pay attention everyone! Something is coming!"

I declared to the three girls behind me before I turned back to find out the approaching cause of the explosions . Alright, come!

Tentacles

"Tentacles, slime, octopus…" "What's the matter, Yato-kun?" "Nothing, I just feel that the enemy monsters here an awfully inclined in a certain way . " "Maybe it's just your overthinking . " "Yeah, you're probably imagining things . " "Ah, I know~ ! they call it tentacles po—-" ← Rouga "I know what you're trying to say, but you need to shut your mouth . " ←- Yato
