Mumuroot-san ran quickly as the cockatrice followed him in the sky From not far behind, I realized that while his attacks were effective at attracting the cockatrice’s attention, they did little to no da the cockatrice froht now, but that could also backfire as itMuo to waste

Better to just keep following theed to close a bit of a distance to Mu a powerful wind attack against hi even for a second, Mu through the village, eventuallyit to the forest

Mu behind thee the cockatrice’s attacks

After a while of doing so, Mu with a small hill and readied to face the cockatrice, which slowly descended

Certainly, this spot was spacious and suitable for such a confrontation, but without the trees to shi+eld himself, his only option was to face it head-on

Well, our goal was to lure the cockatrice away, so this should do

The cockatrice again flapped its wings at the now stationary Mu dozens of sharp feathers his way, but Mu backwards to dodge any stray feathers

I, Mumuroot-san sent a wind blade at the cockatrice, but it swiftly dodged by flying back up The wind blade curved and struck the ground, leaving behind a deep graze

The cockatrice then began slowly beating its wings to gather up wind, but Muic to disrupt it

Wow, they were battling on equal grounds; Mumuroot-san was really cool

Wait, this wasn’t the time for me to stand by and watch theth, there was a chance that Muht now, the cockatrice had its back turned towards me, and all its focus was concentrated on Muathered a small Bear Fireball and shot it directly towards the cockatrice’s defenseless back The cockatrice didn’t notice it at all, so the ss

The cockatrice let out an angry shriek, i lady! Why are you here?!」

Munored him and sent another sae as you could while you still had the chance Still, the cockatrice wasn’t going to let s, sending red and black feathers directly atMumuroot-san, I created a all to block the feathers while Mumuroot-san took the chance to send another wind blade at cockatrices’s back Again however, the cockatrice sie it

「Why did you come here?!」

Mumuroot-san rushed up to me, clearly mad that I had disobeyed him

「To help you, of course」

「What are you saying?! Get out of here immediately while I distract the cockatrice」

「Don’t worry, I won’t get in the way I can handle ether」

The cockatrice now circled above, waiting for us to act

Mu back to ets too dangerous, save yourself at any cost I don’t want to see any children die today」

Children? Was that how Mumuroot-san saw h time for you to run away, at the very least」

So, he was just telling me “Don’t worry aboutlike that Sanya and Ruimin would be devastated if he died

For now, I decided to just nod in reply, so we could resuether, we looked up at the cockatrice flying in the sky It once again slowly descended towards the ground, this time a bit away froan to puff up

「Mumuroot-san, don’t move!」

As soon as I shouted, the cockatrice expelled a purple-colored breath, but I ed to create a wind-dome to shi+eld us just in tiame, a cockatrice’s breath would inflict a lethal poison status effect, so we had to avoid it at all costs

Once the cockatrice stopped breathing out poison, I expanded the dos

「Young lady, you really saved me there」

Mumuroot-san thanked me then rushed towards the cockatrice and threw a point-blank wind blade at it, slicing off a part of its wing The cockatrice was infuriated by this and blew a large aht at him However, Mu a strong gust of wind, he blew the breath right back at it

Just as Mumuroot-san tried to deal the final bloever, the cockatrice extended its wings and, with a wide swing, knocked Mumuroot-san away from it

「Mumuroot-san!」

「I’round

Still, the cockatrice wasn’t going to wait for Muet up, so I quickly shi+elded hi a small Bear Fireball at the cockatrice with my left I kneouldn’t hurt it, but I at least wanted to attract its attention

The s the er Bear Fireball be enough to defeat it? Well, if I used such a strong flaet steamed in the process

Was it just ht?

Then again, I couldn’t just tell him:「You’re in the way, so can you please just leave it tolady」

「Please don’t overexert yourself Since you’re hurt, I’ll defeat it in your stead」

「Huhu, you’re simply incredible To be able to re a cockatrice…」

Mu or anything; I was quite serious about this

The cockatrice once again took to the sky, taking its time to observe us

「Okay, then Could I borrow so lady?」
