Demonstrating Power

 

“Guooooo!!”

My body was petrified upon hearing Leviathan’s roar.

It was way more powerful than the Goblin King, is this a joke?!

 

As if its roar acted as a signal, the ground then swelled.

Many of the swelling lumps cracked, and from there appeared monsters with forms that were akin to a fish, a human, and a four-armed monster.

 

Wait a minute. Isn’t that Malenti?1 Magical attacks aren’t that effective against them, and I feel like it was terribly hard battling it when I was at around level 50.

Since its movement is slow, we’d be able to avoid their attacks as long as we look at them closely.

However, at the very least, it’s not a monster that can be defeated easily by beginners. Moreover, from what can be seen, there are not less than ten of them here.

Can we defeat that many of them with just us alone?!

 

“What is that?”

After getting over his petrification, Frank-san looked around vigilantly.

 

“Sahuagin… but its arms are so many. Which means, a mutant? Good grief, what is happening? Recently, we’ve encountered lots of mutants.”

“Sahuagin is a monster that appears near the ocean, right?”

Ar-niisama stood as if protecting me as he readied his sword.

 

“Yeah. I have never heard of them appearing near the lake. Moreover, there’s a rumor that magic are barely effective against them.”

“In other words, Yuuri’s magical attacks won’t work against them, huh?”

“…From the beginning, we shouldn’t count on her like that.”

“Certainly.”

“Let’s just quickly defeat them.”

“Agreed.”

Amanda-san and Virna-san also participated in the conversation between Frank-san and Ar-niisama.

Karin-san who was staring fixedly at Virna-san was also there, so as long as all of us combined our power, we’d somehow manage, right?!

 

“Grrruuu…”

Noir was growling by using the voice that was deep in its throat.

Yeah, right. Noir as well, let’s all work hard!

 

Perhaps responding to the voice in my heart, Noir also raised its roar.

“Gyawrrr!”

 

The next moment.

The Malenti’s movement that was approaching us then suddenly stopped.

 

“Hoo. To be able to overpower my servants! So it’s not just an ordinary beast. …I see. Panther king, huh? However, why would a panther king be mixed with you lot and even yield to you?”

Noir shifted hits sapphire-like pupils towards Leviathan before averting its face away.

Then, it began attacking the Malenti whose movement was stopped.

 

“…I see it.”

Virna-san who was standing across me then carried a thin sword in both of her hands and in that instant—she ran towards the Malenti.

F-fast!

After Virna-san ran, there were around ten Malenti who sustained injuries…

Then all of them simultaneously collapsed.

 

Could it be that she was slicing them as she ran?!

Virna-san who had killed the last Malenti in the twinkling of an eye, whirled the swords that she held on each hand to blow away the blood that was on them.

 

Amazing… She defeated them in no time.

Virna-san is this strong, huh…?

 

“As expected of the [Dawn’s Seeker]’s member, huh?”

In response to Amanda-san’s praise, Virna-san readied her swords once more as she lowered her waist.

 

“I’m just getting started.”

As if it was a cue, Leviathan roared once more, causing the ground to swell.

 

“Noir, let’s go!”

As if it understood Virna-san’s words, Noir also roared, not wanting to lose to Leviathan.

Once it did so, the Malenti that crawled out of the holes in the ground simultaneously stopped moving.

Seeing that, Virna-san ran towards the horde of Malenti.

 

“As expected of the panther king, huh? My servants can’t keep it company at their level. …Then, shall I become your opponent?”

“—Don’t just forget about us!”

Leviathan was turning towards Noir, and Frank-san stood in their way.

 

“…Interesting. Show me your power to decide whether or not you’re all worthy to be bestowed with my power!”

Leviathan slowly raised its face and opened its jaws wide.

Something that was akin to a giant energy was gathering inside its mouth.

 

“Run from Leviathan’s sight! Its water spears are coming!”

Everyone simultaneously escaped to the side as Karin-san warned.

When I was thinking of escaping as well, Ar-niisama held me in his arms.

 

“T-thank—”

My word of gratitude was stopped by the raging stream that came attacking right after that.

 

The attack was just like a flock of small dragons.

Each of them seemed like they were carrying a will on their own, as they were coming this way.

 

“Move aside!”

Was it Ar-niisama or Frank-san who just shouted?

 

Ar-niisama’s body that was hugging me closely as if covering me from the water current then bounced from the impact.
