Other World’s Monster Breeder

Chapter 96 – Finding the lair

After listening to Rust’s opinion, I decided to ride the Turtle Car in order to reach the “Hiryu Mountain Range”.

The price of the Turtle Car was still high, but we could not afford to take so much time to think about it.

If you can avoid combat, then that’s fine, but if you don’t take enough measures, you may find yourself in one of the biggest predicaments of all time today.

I want to believe that I will be okay because I have a group of people I can count on, but the thought of what is to come makes my hands sweat.

“…I see. So, the master is now going to face Kururu.”

If you want to know about demons, what better than to ask other demons.

With that in mind, I decided to explain to Carolina what had happened so far.

“Maybe you know something about Kururu?”

“Yeah. We were always together… we both worked in the same place. But… her bad behavior caused her problems, so much so that she was fired. Kururu’s unpredictable behavior used to bring out the best in me.”

“I didn’t know…”

I’m getting a better sense of the story.

So, I guess there was a time when Kururu tried to work seriously, too.

However, after she was fired from her job, her heart was corrupted, and she joined an evil organization known as the Demon Lord’s Army.

“So, in your eyes, is Kururu strong?”

“Yes. In terms of fighting ability, it’s the best among demons. I’m probably no match for Kururu right now.”

“…!?”

It’s a joke, right?!

Even in our group, Carolina’s status is peerless to others.

To be stronger than Carolina, how inflated is Kururu’s status?!

This is not good.

Should we turn back now?

……..

…………

No.

I must calm down.

No matter how strong the opponent is.

I have the Capsule Ball skill that allows me to have a 100% chance of capturing my opponent.

Even if it’s the worst battle, we have a good chance of winning if I can throw the ball to her while Carolina gets her attention.

Fortunately, she doesn’t know about my capabilities.

If you get into a fight, throwing the ball in a surprise move wouldn’t be a particular problem.

Meanwhile, we arrived at the Hiryu Mountain Range.

In my field of vision there was a huge mountain that extended like a heavenly impulse, just as it had been when I came here before.

“Kazehaya, Kururu’s lair is over here. Follow me.”

“Hey, but, that’s…”

The destination to which our guide, Rust, was heading was completely off the climbing route by a secondary route.

Isn’t it just the wild animals that pass through this place?

It was barely wide enough for a human to pass through and I could see the tall grass poking my skin.

“Kururu-sama dislikes uncomfortable trips more than anything else. She wouldn’t set up a lair on a mountaintop or anything.”

After a short walk, Rust pushed a pendant he had on his chest against a lumpy rock wall.

“Th-This is…?”

So, what do you think?

The landscape, which until now looked like a simple rock wall, changed quickly, and finally a large cave appeared.

“This pendant has the effect of temporarily lifting Kururu-sama’s illusion magic. It’s a special item she only gives to people she trusts.”

I see.

In other words, in principle, it’s similar to the casino poker scam.

No wonder Rikku-san couldn’t find Kururu’s lair.

“Master. From here, please walk as close to me as possible.”

“What’s going on all of a sudden?”

“You never know what kind of trick Kururu will use. I just want to be able to respond quickly in case something goes wrong.”

“Ok. Well, I guess one can’t help but be cautious.”

When I answered, Carolina squeezed my hand tightly.

That’s strange.

I had been anxious until a few moments ago, but when Carolina held my hand, I felt my heart calm.
