282. An Army of Abyss

The horde of Abyss on the cliffside is targeting Lesser Treant and the spiders.
Hovering in mid-air, I fire〖Wind Slash〗in each flap of my wings, protecting Lesser Treant and the spiders from the Abyss that’s attacking them while also dealing damage.
The blades of wind cut through the Abyss and their bodily fluids splat all over the wall.

A level up already just from beating three Abyss.
D-Doesn’t this place make for a great hunting spot……?
The Abyss’s attacks won’t reach me in the air, and they can’t jump after me unless they can shoot webs like Nightmare.
No, Lesser Treant and the spiders we left behind are still in danger.

Why you…… Eat this!

I’m steadily scraping off the fifty Abyss number that was overwhelming us a while ago.

More and more Abyss approach Treant, stepping on the bodies of their dead comrades.
On my back, Alo shoots a full-powered〖Gale〗, crushing an Abyss to the cliff wall, while Nightmare spits out a web to one of them and slings it up, falling down the cliff.
Lesser Treant also shakes around its leafy branches, trying to attract more Abyss to come to it.

The spiders…… I mean, the Kid Arachne are all wrapping around sticky webbing on their foothold.
Whenever an Abyss steps on it, they get slowed down and that’s where I target them with my〖Wind Slash〗.

I was a bit worried about the spiders at first, but with the three of us in the air, me included, our long-range attacks have managed to keep them safe for this long.
Alo and Petite Nightmare can take care of any Abyss that my〖Wind Slash〗missed.
And, if there are still more that we missed, Partner backs us up with〖Death〗and〖High Rest〗.
One by one, more and more Abyss fall off from the cliffside.

My level is also going up from Lv 74 to 75 and from 75 to 76.
And before I knew it, I already reached Lv 78.

Despite a good fight that we’re holding up, Lesser Treant and the spiders are getting backed into a corner.
But, with the target even clearer on sight, it’s now more easier to aim.
Plus, the number of Abyss has greatly dwindled.
Time for the big finish.

“Gu~uooooo!”

I roar, signaling Alo and Petite Nightmare on my back.
Alo and Petite Nightmare stopped attacking and hung on tight.

I gather magic power on my wings and dive down at the cliffside.
Using〖Wind Slash〗on both wings at the same time is difficult to use, and there’s a recoil that leaves me wide open in the sky.
So, I’ll use the momentum from this dive to suddenly break in mid-air and shoot out〖Wind Slash〗.
Two large blades of wind slice through four Abyss at once and almost destroyed half the cliff.

【Obtained 450 Experience Points.】
【〖The Walking Egg〗skill gives you additional 450 Experience Points.】

【Title Skill〖Vermin Slayer〗has risen from Lv 6→7.】
【Normal Skill〖Wind Slash〗has risen from Lv 6→7.】

The area where the Abyss was cut down is now a large crack on the cliffside and their feet got covered in the rubble.

About less than ten Abyss are left.
The match is pretty much already in our favor, that is until an even bigger Abyss showed up from the crack I made.
It’s twice as large as a normal Abyss, no, it’s even larger than that.
It’s slow compared to the other Abyss, the way it walks, step-by-step, is giving off a mysterious proud aura around it.


Just when I was still trying to wonder what the hell this thing was, another one appears from another hole.
That timing, the other one appeared just above Lesser Treant and the spiders.
With their multiple legs, they crawl towards Lesser Treant’s general direction.

““Vu~e~e~e~e~e~ee~e~e~e””

That awful cry is like an old man’s.
What’s with these things?
Is it like their evolved forms or something?

【〖Heavy Abyss〗: Rank C+ monster】
【Only a heavy eater〖Abyss〗is capable of evolving into this large monster.】
【Their body surface is undeniably sturdy that it cannot be penetrated by normal means.】
【Their shells and carapace are often processed as shields.】

H-Heavy Abyss…… an Abyss that specializes in defense.
Wait wait, hold up, so you’re saying there are more varieties of Abyss out there? I’ve seen enough already, thank you!

When the other Abyss heard the Heavy Abyss’s cries, they also set their sights on Lesser Treant.
One of the Abyss tries to escape by climbing up the cliff while stepping on the corpses of its fellow Abyss.

“〖Gale〗!”

Alo absorbs more magic from me and fires a small twister on one of the Heavy Abyss.
The blast of wind destroys more parts of the cliff. However, the Heavy Abyss wasn’t fazed and continued its advance.
Even though Alo already leveled up, her magic power should have increased, yet it did nothing.
I hastily shoot〖Wind Slash〗next.
The blade of wind hits the Heavy Abyss’s back. A crack is formed and its bodily fluids gush out.
Yet still, the Heavy Abyss does not stop.
I add more magic power into my wings and prepare another powerful〖Wind Slash〗.

The Heavy Abyss approached the spider’s sticky webs that are now a wall of dead Abyss corpses, and it noticed that there are still more sticky webs that haven’t been stepped yet so it stopped just in front of it and begins to trample the webs.
It intends to remove the web’s adhesive strength by stepping on it.
But by then, a web was already attached on the back of its head.

“Vu~e……?”

It’s Petite Nightmare’s web.
Petite Nightmare held tight on my back and I shot my readied〖Wind Slash〗on the lower side of the Heavy Abyss instead, using the impact to fly up higher.
The web lifts the Heavy Abyss off the cliffside and into the air.

“Vu~eeeeeeeeeee!”

The Heavy Abyss lets out a savage cry as it gets swung to the other side of the wall and back again, like a pendulum, getting pierced and thrusted by sharp rocks in each swing.

“Kiki, ki~!”

Nightmare couldn’t hold on for long and the web was cut.
And just like that, the Heavy Abyss falls to its doom and a loud splat was heard down the bottom of the cliff.

【Obtained 156 Experience Points.】
【〖The Walking Egg〗skill gives you additional 156 Experience Points.】

…… This spider is quite the horrid fighter.
Since I also helped lift it up in the air, I received exp points too.

As for the other Heavy Abyss, I shot two〖Wind Slash〗at it and although the first shot damaged it a lot, the second one pushed it off the ledge and down it fell, leaving a trail of bodily fluid behind as it falls to its inevitable death.

“Vu~evu~evu~evu~evu~evu~evu~evu~e!”

It kept falling, and falling, and falling, until it disappeared in the distance.
And just like the previous Heavy Abyss, a loud splat noise was heard.

【Obtained 250 Experience Points.】
【〖The Walking Egg〗skill gives you additional 250 Experience Points.】

…… So, time to clean up the leftovers.
Or so I thought, but after seeing the Heavy Abyss die so miserably like that, the rest of the Abyss all turned tail and fled.

I’m also starting to feel rather tired, so I went back up the cliff to take a quick rest.
I don’t know how many dozens of〖Wind Slash〗I fired today.
Alo also used a lot of magic too.
I’d like her to fully recover her MP before we continue heading on.

“Gru~o~oo……”

As I stretch my neck and rest my head on the ground, Alo gets off my back and approaches me worriedly, gently patting my head.
Following Alo, Lesser Treant and the spiders also cuddle in close to me and Partner.
Oh, that’s right.
I need to check how much everyone has leveled up.
You all worked really hard today.
Everyone should have received some valuable experience points from this battle.
