Vol 7 Chapter 110 (2/2)
“… That can’t be”
Understanding the present state from my Skills, I hurriedly raised my speed
From the Jewel as well, came a voice of surprise
It was the Fifth
『May…』

… Surrounding the animal, the boys looked over its lifeless body, and let out a collective sigh
“The hell? Not a single ic stone n’ it”
Splashed with a spurt of blood, one of the boys vexingly wiped off his hands and clothes with a cloth
The reason for their irritation was the tiible reward
“Told you ya’ can’t tell them apart”
“And wait, these guys attack us all the same, so why do we have to treat them with care?”
Passing by one of the traps they had laid a while back, they had coincidentally found a wolf snared
They had surrounded it and taken its last breath, but it was more tenacious and troublesome than any Gray Wolf
“How ain?”
“Ah~ I get the feeling I got around a large copper last I…”
When they leisurely turned to leave the area, a thunderbolt suddenly fell
It was followed by the ruhtened the area
Looking up, the saps in the branches and leaves was as bright as day
“What? What’s going on?”
“Oy, you’re not telling ht?”
“F-for now, let’s run!”
Aat that conclusion, they quickly turned to run But before they noticed it, in the gap between theirl of small build
She was a girl severely lacking in a sense of reality
Her clothes were of a sort they’d never seen before
Her white garments showed off the shoulders and navel No, it’s just that the spaces around the breast, hip, and down both arms were each covered by a separate piece of fabric
The cloth around her chest and wrapped around her hips gave quite a fir bust
A small rump at that
(TL: This is what happens when Lyle is not narrating)
Even with such gar over her arms was so loose that they even covered up her hands Her feet were in sandals, and down to her knees, a belt was coiled around like a web
Her short golden hair swayed, as she exited the gap between the three, destroyed the s, and held up the bloody animal to her body
The three boys couldn’t find it in thes locked with complicated sentiment
The ht her beautiful
And at the saht her impossible
What grew from her hair in the area above her ears, was a set of two horns
Watching the girl with golden horns, the three were trapped in beauty and fear
A all demi-humans, they had never heard of a variant that had horns sprout fronorant, and such a race did exist, seeing her for the first time invoked fear
Of all else, her atmosphere was different
One of the boys soed to squeeze out his voice
“W-who are you? An adventurer off to the village? Never seen you before, but…”
When she turned around, her eyes were blue and clear, but at the same time, they looked down on, and despised
“Eeek!”
The surprised boy fell onto his back, as the wolf’s conored the boys, drawing near her feet, and taking in the scent of their fallen comrade
The girl opened her mouth
“I’m sorry, I didn’t notice you in time… farewell, brave soul”
Saying that, the girl placed the wolf on the ground Its cos Some of the pups pressed their bodies to her
She closed her eyes, and when she opened them, the wolf’s corpse burst into flames
The pale blue fla, she…
“Go on, there is nothing left here”
After the wolf pack returned to the depths of the forest, she glared at the boys Walking around the fla them, she spoke
“You see, I have quite a hatred for ones like you Ignorant, yet prideful… right, tolike this, I’ll have one of you disappear The other two should return to the village nearby, and hand down the tale they saw today And that will be the end of the matter”
The girl spoke disinterestedly The boys exchanged pale glances with sweat strea down their faces
The girl
“So ill disappear?”
Disappear That’s all she said, but they could understand
A them, one was to die
“W-we’re sorry We’re sorry, so please let us off”
One of theirl tilted her head
“And what are you sorry about? If you can say it, then out with it”
They looked t one another
“F-for killing a wolf”
Hearing that, the girl burst into laughter
“Ahahaha, you’re right about that one Yep, you’re not wrong about that But you see…”
In an instant, her fored
Froolden mane A quilin
Her two horns disappeared, to be replaced by a single one in the center
One for offense, a sharp prong
“I won’t tell you not to kill lifeforms Even I kill to survive To be quite frank here, I wouldn’t even have a co it That’s your personal problem But…”
With a step forward, she caused all the boys to fall onto their backsides The one as on the ground already got on all fours in an attempt to escape
The first quilin they had ever laid eyes upon was directing malice at them
With that divine form, she showed hatred
Understanding that, the boys pleaded for forgiveness with teary eyes
But the quilin didn’t seem to hold any interest in that
“I just don’t like you on a personal level And you’ve pointlessly destroyed the balance of this forest That is your sin Now once more, who shall be the one to disappear?”
There was quite an off sense, hearing a young girl’s voice froe beast’s mouth
But s
“I told you not to do it! You’re the one who dragged me in!”
“Don’t screithit the most!”
“Well I sure don’t want it! I don’t want to die! I don’t want to die at all!”
They cried out and began cursing at one another The quilin was listening patiently, but…
“Who’s disappearing?”
Their pleas for forgiveness hadn’t reached her
But the quilin suddenly turner her eyes from the boys to a point to the side
“So you’re here I’ve been waiting…”
What the boys saas the adventurer with blue hair
Perhaps he had been in a rush, and twigs and leaves were stuck fast to his hair He was out of breath, and changing the dagger in his right hand to his left, he drew out a sabre
Lowering his hips, he took a stance and glared at the quilin
Unlike them, he had taken a posture to confront her
After raising its forefeet high in the air, the quilin leapt When she landed, she was in the form of a human once more
And looking down at the sobbing boys…
“I don’t care any ain, I’ll be sure to make you disappear”
The threatened youths hurried down the forest path from which they had come
They had thrown aside all the baggage they were carrying, as they frantically raced off
