Chapter 94 (1/2)
「Gahhh, die, bugs!」
『Gyagiiii…』『Gajijijiiiii…』___The horns, bones, and shells which had been fermenting in my bag was thrown at the bugs with my full strength. The scene in front of me right now is even worse than when I first entered – a grotesque visual.
It was already rustling and messed up, but now all of its blown up body liquids and blown up pieces of flesh had glistening, slimy compounds added to them.
You could see how lame a guy that intended this to happen just by looking at it is.
「Hah hah hah, the bug is now just a worm!」
I had no idea what I was saying, but once I calmed down and looked at it clearly, it made me crazy again, and so I maintained that mentality of feeling absolutely insane. Being freaking insane makes you invincible!
Wait, what the hell am I thinking?
「Gyaaaaaa, yuck! Disgusting! No closer, these freaking bugs, I don’t want any bugs for breakfast!」
What the hell, she ate bugs for breakfast before? She seemed more disgusted by it than I was.
『Gijiiii!』『Byugaaabibi!』
「It’s rattling about, twitching! Disgusting!」
The redhead was screaming and running around like crazy shooting off magic everywhere.
Yeah, the same crazy tools as I have. Wait, if you’re crying does that mean you’re not running crazy anymore? Maybe the redhead is completely resisting doing an attack out of confusion?
「Whateeeever! Look, look, let this sink in! Ahah hah hah!!」
「Dammit, I’m the only one firing with a clear mind! Why is it that only I’m the one that’s fighting without going nuts? It sucks that you’re the first person I hate for having too high a magic resistance!」
「What did you say? I have a clear mind!」
「Shut up, baldy! You’re just making your eyes spin around, stop that and come to your senses! 」
「Whaaa?」
Slissshaaaah, a water ball suddenly fell on me and covered me with water.
It seemed to melt my slightly strange status of confusion.
「What are you doing!?」
「Since you have only a little endurance, you’ve gotten confusion so I’m trying to help! How long are you going to trip out like that?!」
「Stop bugging me! If you are telling me to fix it, I can so just leave me alone! That disgusting clear-mindedness of yours is disgusting! Bleh!」
Now that I had a hold of the situation again, it was more disgusting than I could ever imagine. It was a scene you’d wish you could fast forward through if it were on the TV or in a movie, and had a destructive force if you were forced to watch it clearly all the way through.
Maybe it was me, but it seemed like everything around me was stagnating. I mean, I was tripping out so maybe I didn’t notice, but because of the exploding bug juice, the glistening mushroom-looking like spore that began my confusion, and the worm-like bug spewing compatible dragon breath, I was trapped in a bunch of smells that made me want to puke.
Even though I had some endurance skill against abnormal statuses from leveling up, I didn’t get confused from all these remaining things that were around me, but it wasn’t like I could just ignore the smell either.
「D, dammit, this stinking smell from all that slime made me lose it…wait, bugs are cold-blooded right? Both their blood and internal fluids are cold right? Why?」
My five senses surged back as I ignored everything right up until I was clear-minded again.
I could see everything in this grotesque picture before me, things like flying bugs filling the room with buzzing sounds, and that nasty stench from before.
Also, it seemed like the temperature was rising as well, and it was getting more humid. Maybe that was because the redhead was using some fire-based magic or something.
Also, the redhead in question had placed a half wind sphere around her as well, so all the air was being cut off by it.
「Redhead! Stop keeping that all to yourself! Let me in too!」
There was something like an Iron Garm fang crawling closer with something like a centipede stabbed through it and two things that looked like flying ants that flew closer that got thrown by me as I got closer to the magic circle that redhead had set up.
「Wha? Don’t come closer! I don’t want any of that disgusting stuff near me! All that disgusting smell is all over you so don’t come closer!」
「You just splashed me with that ball of water though!」
「It still stinks though, here! I’ll wash you again!」
「Wha?」
An appearing ball of water covered my body again. This time it didn’t fall and drench me but spun in my location like a whirlpool.
(Whoa, a human washing machine.)
Redhead’s stone spear again stabbed through several winged bugs as they crawled over the floor. During that, the water-whirlpool spinning below my neck for 10 seconds ended with a mighty SPLASH which covered the floor right below me.
「Hey! Are you just going to leave me drenched?! I mean, this is how I was before!」
「Don’t ask for too much, you didn’t get hurt so you’ll be fine!」
「If I’m wet, that spore looking thing and all those flying ant scales are going to slime me all over again! You turned a minor problem into a disaster!」
「Don’t mess with me! There’s no way I’m letting you inside this wind zone looking as disgusting like that!」
During that conversation, in order to crush the five or six bugs that drew near during that 10 seconds I was being “washed,” I tossed the remains of a 10 foot stone golem on them and crushed them.
It was a weak dungeon boss meant for a novice player, so I killed it without really receiving a scratch.
The usually calm Yumis excitedly fought it and beat it as it was an important experience seeing that Aurelia Kingdom didn’t have many magical creatures like golem.
We had planned on sending it to Yumis’ lab in the next town we arrived at, Ermia, but it was a “Yumistake.” In emergency situations like this, you wish she’d lay off.
If you get a bit of bug juice on it, it’s going to mess up your research, right? Yeah, and if we can’t use it, we’ll just have to find another sample to use.
「Dammit, it’s stuck on my clothes and kind of disgusting.」
Not only did I not want to fight the bugs, but unlike the world I come from with decent clothes to wear, the clothes of this world really have a nasty feel to them if you get them soaked.
Your body heat will dry it off after a while, so I prayed that would happen quickly.
『Kishaaaaaaa!』
「Kishaaaat the f*** up, you stupid bugs!」
I was pissed at this nasty slug-like thing crawling up at me while making a high, squealing sound, so I started tossing stuff around again.
☆
After the battle continued a bit…
The immense numbers of bugs had been decreased to quite a smaller number.
After a little more, these bugs should all but be destroyed. As our view got clearer and clearer as we wiped the bugs away, the door being in the direct opposite from the door we entered had the same design but a different color of green. Maybe that’s the real goal, after all.
However, on the other hand, Redhead and I had a bad feeling about what was coming.
「…Don’t say it, I know.」
As the bugs were lain low, we glanced over and saw a shiny light pink egg looking thing, There seemed to be blood vessels running over the surface, and we could see from afar that it was twitching strangely.
I thought we were making it because the bugs numbers were decreasing, so I didn’t just fight with whatever but properly threw my throwing knives at it.
「Damn, still impossible.」
