321 # 304 Tonosama Frog Castle, Strategy Battle.txt (1/2)

The Japanese food culture is great. I've never felt it as much as I did today. Cooking with heat was such a relief.

I was in a bad way, but I managed to recover. I didn't eat anything... okay, login!

Are you okay?　Mr. Takut.

What's that?　Aeon?　What did I do?

No, no!　I didn't do anything!

Aeon adjusted to me. Good girl.

''Tact-senpai... are you okay?''

'It sounds like you want to pretend it didn't happen, so you might as well. Wouldn't Rian be tempted to do that if he was eating it too?

'Yeah, right!　I understand!

Rian seemed to agree with me. Okay, so let's continue with the quest.

To tell you the truth, the Frog King has been living in the Narral Swamp lately. He has been building some strange structures with his frogmen. You met some of the men you sent out on a scouting mission, but they seem to lose all sense of propriety and become feral when they approach the building.

Once it goes wild, it's irreversible. All we can do is try to put him to rest so that he won't be a nuisance to others. We have caused you trouble. I apologize on behalf of my family.

This is the chief talking to us. He's an old man, but he's a veteran.

”Aye. But what do you plan to do with the King of the Frogs?

It's a shame we can't help you. We'll ask the Guild of Adventurers in Freetia to help us.

Well, this is how it goes. By the way, it seems that the lizardmen are caused by the boss's Tonosama frog's ability to turn wild.

So why don't you let us take care of that request?

What?　Are you sure?

'Yes. I'm still a Freetian adventurer.

'Well...all right. I'll have faith in your strength.

Info comes.

'A special quest 'Capture Frog's Castle' has occurred. Do you wish to take it?

Requested Quest to capture Frog's Castle: Difficulty Level D

Reward: Lizardman's Spear

Capture the castle built by the Frog King.

I'll take it.

He'll lead you to the Frog King. Can you do that?

'Ha!　I'll be discreetly accepted as a guide.

The lizardman who had saved him acted as his guide, and they arrived at the castle of the Tonosama frog.

When he saw it, he said a few words. It's not a castle a frog could make... it's a normal Japanese castle design. Well, it's just a design and the size is the same as King Kong's fort.

Well, let's get to it, shall we? The members are Aeon, Livina, Locomoco, Aster, and Sinsu.

Aeon volunteered to settle the matter himself because he had heard the story. I respected Aeon's wishes.

Lokomoko, Astel, and Sinsu are not very good at fighting. But this time, I decided that it would be okay for me to fight the boss.

Because, I will find the enemy.

Retainer Toad Lv 8.

Normal Monster Target Active

A frog with armor and a spear in front of it.

”Who are you Geko!

Kaito's information has revealed that the enemy is only a rational male.

''Good evening!　Mr. Frog!　Do you want to come and have some fun with me?

Livina told him with a bewitching smile. This situation was the same as King Kong's fort.

......... ...

......

...

This is the top floor of the Toad's Castle.

”Lord~!　Sir!　Enemy attack Geko!

”Don't panic, Geko. This castle is impregnable.

He's already in the castle, Geko!

This surprises the tonneau frog.

'What Geko!　What the hell are the toads doing here, Geko!

'They're all lying on their backs, convulsing and dead, Geko!　The other retainer frogs are being defeated one by one, Geko!

What the hell is wrong with you, puke?　What happened?

Explosions!

It smells like trouble, so I blow up the door and enter the boss room.

'It's you, Geko!　It's Geko who's raiding my castle!

You're not trolling.

Yeah. I just ate it up.

I ended up arriving here with only Livina. Probably set the fastest time.

Now, let's go finish up.

”Don't think you're gonna make it out of here alive, Geko!

When the tonneau frog sounds, the retainer frog appears and comes towards us. So let's get this over with.

Livina, please.

Yeah. I'll help you find a guy.

The Tonosama frogs and their retainer frogs are instantly sucked out of their life force and magic by Livina.

Thank you for the meal.

What's the puke, puke?

The tree frogs find an ion.

'Geko Geko!　Fool!　I'll still listen to this, Geko.

The tonneau frog chirps. Aeon approaches the tree frog.

”Gekko gekko!　Now your dragon newt is just the way I want it.

The Ice Blade.

Ion stabs the tonneau frog with the ice blade.

'Geko!　Why isn't it working, Geko?

'How can your grating voice be effective against me being awakened by the blood of a sea dragon?

Kailu vomit?

This guy thought Aeon was just a water dragoneut.

'I was going to end it with a blow, but he tried to manipulate me. You're ready for that, aren't you?

Wait.

Sturm Edge!

Ion readies his sword and uses the Sturm Edge. As Aeon runs around the tonosama frog, the tonosama frog is trapped in a whirlwind, and Aeon spins around, sword at the ready, and cuts the tonosama frog.

So this is the Sturm Edge... a series of slashes while blocking the opponent's movements. That's quite a martial art.

Tonosamagael was overkilled by Ion's new martial art.

Thus, the Tonosamagael became the most crappy attack of our adventure.

Now, let's dismantle them. If this is the meat of a Tonosama frog, I'm going to be pissed.

Tono Frog Meat: Rare Level 4 Food Grade E+

Meat from the toad. It has a higher nutrient content and stronger flavor than regular frog meat.
