Chapter 73

Adding the total number of people in the Middle School and the High School, at least 100-300 females are missing .

According to the survivors from the middle school dormitory, the existence of the Mage Orc had commanded the orcs to bring the girls away .

Where?

Perhaps they are in this cave .

For what?

The scene before my eyes, is the answer .

The creepy mass of flesh, which is a reminiscent of a human internal organs that are about 5m long, are constantly wriggling in the corner of the room .

Around that flesh, hand-like things are growing out while wiggling and stretching towards the ceiling .

If it is under the sunlight, probably it will be bright pink in colour .

Because the brightness of 《Night Sight》 is around evening time, so now it seems like it is dyed in blood which feels disgusting .

In the lump of flesh, the missing female students are imprisoned within .

No, being eaten . This should be a more accurate way of saying it?

People who are groaning breathlessly, with only their face sticking out while the majority of their bodies are submerged within the flesh .

People are twitching in convolution with their hands and legs outside .

People who revealed their pale coloured breasts .

From where we are, we can see about 5-6 people .

Before the figures of the students who became sacrifices, Mia’s body and mine turned stiff .

Mia swallowed her saliva……

「Ten . . tentacle play . 」 . This girl……

My nervousness disappear in an instant .

「Behind that Shoggoth-like thing! Tamaki, Arisu, something is nearing on the left side! Mia, use magic to attack the Archer on the right side!」(TL note: Shoggoth = a creature in Cthulhu Mytho)

「Mmm, leave it to me!《Lightning》」

Mia released her lightning and like an arrow, the Archer on the right side is pierced .

The Archer’s body became numbed and fell backwards .

Tamaki used her backup dagger against the Archer who is nearing .

Arisu stabbed towards the Archer who is slightly at the side .

The 2 of them turned away after seeing what is inside in the left side .

To kill the Mage Orc, there are many enemies, but they are not that strong .

The trap here, has made the Iron Golem powerless but this fellow will be fine even if we fry it in oil .

But time is of utmost importance .

The 10 Archers closed to Arisu and Tamaki, and threw down their bows and took out their swords .

Even though they can’t defeat the 2 of them .

Though Tamaki also has a dagger, but even so Arisu still took out her tachi . (TL note: Tachi = a type of Japanese sword)

The Archers are defeated one by one .

When the 3 Archers are defeated, Tamaki’s level increased .

We entered the white room .

※

In the white room .

The 5 of us faced each other .

Yes, 5 of us .

When Shiki-san saw my paled face, she had a confused look .

We began to explain the situation before us respectively .

「I see…… that kind of scary thing……」

Shiki-san crossed her arms before her chest and began to think .

After a moment, she raised her head and looked at me .

「Is that fellow’s name decided to be Shoggoth?」

What……

No, names are important .

Everyone gave a bitter smile .

At the same time, their shoulders also relaxed .

Shiki-san winked at me and grinned .

Ahhh, it was deliberate .

「If there are more suitable names . 」

「Globster or something . A grotesque blob monster . I guess it is like a type of UMA, a creature with a body of flesh . 」(TL note: Globster = an unidentified organic mass that washes up on the shoreline of an ocean or other body of water, UMA = unidentified mysterious animal)

Woah so dependable .

This isn’t a monster in a game but a UMA?

No, but I can say that this is something that Cthulhu Mytho does not have .

「Globster…… There are many explanations for that as a whale’s corpse . 」

「Mia knows this . 」

「UMA is a NEET’s hobby . 」

Mia raised her thumb .

Maa… but how should I say it…… it is actually nothing much .

Thanks to Mia, the mood became better .

Just now thanks to her acting dumb, I had stopped to look .

She is probably not naturally dumb, but rather she had calculated it .

A rare talent .

「Just mentioning, Globster is not a UMA, but actually it is just an unknown piece of meat found at the beach……」

「Thi . . This time, I will listen to what you are saying . 」

Mia began to describe it delightfully, while Shiki-san was considering to interrupt or not to .

Maybe she is already doing it .

「Then if it’s that Globster… . . Kazu-kun, what do you think?」

「What huh…… I wouldn’t want to say about the situation that those girls are in . 」

「They are really unfortunate, but it is about the nature of things . In the worst situation, perhaps killing them is also a good thing . 」

Arisu and Tamaki deliberately gave out sounds of suppression .

Shiki-san announced the heartless decision directly, she must have wanted the girls to use their own words to leave their impressions .

The reason is very simple .

I, Kaya Kazuhisa, is a symbol of love and mercil, a leader should have the brilliance to light everyone up .

To Shiki-san, it is controlling everyone strictly, and at times overbearing .

Ah, though saying being merciful is myself, it send a chill down my spine .

No matter what this is necessary .

Hmm, my mind understands it .

A carrot and stick .

The 2 different ends in an organisation .

Even if Shiki-san got the short end of the stick, but this is what we have decided on .

Though I feel that Arisu and Tamaki are being lied to, and that my heart is aching… . .

But it is important that both of them have to understand it .

For instance, when helping those that should be helped, like saving the lives of the girls who went crazy . If 《Cure Mind》 cannot heal them…… then at that time .

Those who lost their 4 limbs, right .

There is a need to use《Cure Deficit》 to recover the lost parts .

It is fine during normal times, but now in the Cultivating Centre, there isn’t any excessive ability to support those kind of people .

No matter how merciless the decision is, this is something to be expected .

At that time, even if it is her own orders, Shiki-san will also raised her chest proudly .

Because no matter when, she has her power and her duty .

I will also definitely accept her courage .

Then perhaps this will be after this battle .

「Then, the problem is whether the Globster is eating the girls or is it doing something . 」

「Hmm, Kazu-kun, what do you think of it when you were there?」

「To be honest, Mia will know more details . 」

Everyone’s sight focused on Mia, while she deliberate coughed and looked around with a clueless expression .

「Anyway, is H included?」

「If possible, don’t let the mood settle down . 」

Then Mia used her hands to cover the edge of her mouth, temporarily in thoughts .

「In games, things that are summoned out with sacrifices, for example like Mana or monsters…… like evil gods 」

「Monsters……the wasps?」

「Girls who are trained by the monsters…… let alone giving birth… . . Then raped forever…… gulp . 」

Really, I don’t feel grateful to the monsters .

Just now we have also mentioned it, the large number of wasps that appeared this morning . Could it be that something happened?

But… . . what is it?

Currently in the place we are battling, there are no Giant Wasps .

If this is a nest, but yet there are no traces of it . What exactly is going on .

It could have just been a coincidence, but . .

「It seems that the highest possibility is that the Globster is using Mana to transfer targets?」

「So it is there?」

Shiki-san and I looked at each other .

We shall not talk such strange developments for now . Isn’t there someone who is conducting such a ritual? That was one of the scenario that Shiki-san and I have assumed for now .

Yesterday, I had discovered another stone monument .

As for why the orcs are coming out from this cave, things about these .

「I don’t wish to think about evil gods being summoned . 」

「If evil gods appeared, can we win?」

「If Spear Skill and Sword Skill are Rank 9…… then maybe . 」

Anyway, for Tamaki who has been only raising Sword Skill, she still needs to level up another 5 levels before Sword Skill reaches Rank 9 .

Today, since the beginning, Giant Wasps and Archer Orcs have been appearing one by one, perhaps there is really such a possibility .

Such a possibility, to be honest, I don’t even wish to think about it .

「Anyway, we shall move with such a basis first . I will move over there immediately too . 」

「Shiki-san, before the battle ends, it is fine to not show yourself too . 」

If that is so, then it will be a great help .

Without Shiki-san’s leadership, the gathering at the Cultivating Centre will disappear immediately .

Just by myself, I am unable to lead 30 female students .

If it is possible to let Shiki-san’s power increase here, it will be beneficial to the entire group .

After we discussed some more things, we returned to the original place .

Tamaki: Level 18 Sword Skill 7／Physical 1 Skill Point 7

※

We returned to the battlefield immediately .

The Wind Elemental on the right side is fighting alone, and after suffering a concentrated range attack from 4 Archers, it fell to the ground and disappeared .

But the Wind Elemental also brought an Archer down along with it when it died .

Then Arisu leveled up .

And used the skill points to rank up Spear Skill .

Arisu’s Spear Skill is now Rank 6 .

Arisu: Level 18 Spear Skill 5→6／Healing Magic 5 Skill Point 6→0

After simple discussion, we came out of the white room .

Immediately afterward, Mia’s 《Lightning》 killed another one .

Then there are only 2 Archers left on the right side .

The Archers without anyone to disturb them, began to release arrows with Mia and me as the targets……

「《Whirlwind》 . 」

Mia created a violent tornado along the line of sight as a hindrance .

At the front, Arisu and Tamaki began a rumble with the Archers who had a sword in their hands .

The 2 of them took down the Archers one by one overwhelmingly……

At that time, a Mage Orc appeared from the dark side on the right .

The Mage Orc’s staff pointed towards Arisu .

No, more accurately saying, it is the Arisu’s iron spear .

Shit, that is coming .

「Arisu!」

「It is fine……!」

Arisu grabbed the spear tightly with her 2 hands .

And bit her lips strongly .

She is desperately holding the spear that was heated red with 《Heat Metal》 .

「《Dispel》」

Arisu used magic on her spear .

Rank 3 healing magic 《Dispel》 can cancel any effect of magic .

This time, the heating effect of 《Heat Metal》 disappeared .

But it also charred Arisu’s hands black . .

Even so, the Mage Orc seemed shocked .

Not only was its magic resisted, but it was even scared of the 《Dispel》 .

This was the plan that Shiki-san had thought out .

《Heat Metal》 being removed, does not have much meaning .

But if it is a cancelling magic, then it will be useless for the enemy to use the same move again .

This is a psychological attack, that was what Shiki-san said .

Mia also nodded in agreement .

Such a dirty gamer, I scolded in a vulgar way in the white room .

「Words of praise . 」

「Hmm, words of praise . 」

Both of them raised their chest proudly .

Though I feel that it is not acceptable .

But I will leave it be .

Just as Shiki-san’s prediction, the Mage Orc changed to other magic .

《Stone Bullet》 of Rank 1 Earth Magic .

As it is only Rank 1, it does not have much destructive power .

Taking advantage of the gap, Arisu took the javelin on her back and threw it towards the Mage Orc .

Go .

The javelin pierced through the Mage Orc’s chest beautifully .

The Mage Orc vomited blood out from its mouth violently and collapsed .

Then we entered the white room again .

This time it was Shiki-san whose level rose .

※

「Just nice my skill point is 4, let’s raise Detection . 」

Shiki-san’s survival is a priority .

Of course it will be good with that . We nodded .

「Arisu, the plan after returning is to cover this side just like that . Settle the Archers on the right side . 」

「Yes, I know . 」

Over half of the monsters in front are killed by the 2 vanguards .

Tamaki should be fine alone with the 4 left .

The 2 Archers on the right side wanted to get pass the tornado to get into a shooting position .

To deal with the Archers’ plans, Arisu and I have decided to move .

On the left side, 5 Archers are fighting with 2 Wind Elementals .

It will be fine at here .

「Then, we will leave the white room . 」

Shiki controlled the computer .

Shiki: Level 8 Detection 4／Throwing Skill 3 Skill Point 4→0

The battle heads to its ending .
