V3C77 (2/2)
” …. ! I’ve sensed them too! It’s ants ‒ !!”
I was late in noticing because of the shadows made by the grass and it was night time.
Black ants — Huge ants the size of wild dogs were approaching us in large numbers.
“Petit Ice! Petit Stone! Petit Dark! Petit Wind! Petit Water!”
I would be troubled if lightning or fire caused the grassland to burn so I couldn’t use them. Light magic only has an effect on the undead in the first place so I didn’t use it either.
Ice chunks, stone gravel, dark beads, wind blades and water balls collided against the approaching ants.
“Slash!”
“Slash!”
From Haru’s 2 arms holding daggers and from my 2 empty arms, a total of 4 arms released 4 vacuum waves that hit the ants.
But, it didn’t look like the number of ants decreased.
“Carol! I’ll tentatively change your second job to a suitable job!”
“Ye, yes!”
I changed Carol’s job to Farmer.
But, it’s not like the ants will disappear just because of that.
Since the ants were already here.
I leaped into the center of the ants and while seated,
“Rotational Slash!”
recited the name of the skill.
With me as the center, the surrounding ants were shredded.
“Rotational Slash!”
Haru also copied me and shredded the ants using rotational slash.
“Slash!”
Since 10 seconds had passed, I once again defeated 2 far away ants.
It should be doable if it’s like this.
Just as I had that thought.
Something was expelled out from an ant’s mouth.
“Marina, danger!”
I flew in front of Marina who was beside Carol.
A certain liquid was spit out by the ant and hit my back.
Regardless of the light armor I had on, severe pain greater than I had imagined ran through me.
“Master!”
It seemed like Haru defeated the ant that spat acid at me. It’s presence disappeared.
“Ichino-sama!”
“I’m alright. Petit Heal!”
I used Petit Heal on my back.
It treated the pain but was my armor fine?
It’s the armor I got from Margaret-san but it might have melted.
“Slash!”
I rained Slash in the direction of the enemy.
After that, we continued to fight until the remaining ants fled.
