VRMMO de Summoner Hajimemashita - Chapter 41

41st Critter -- vs. Fairy Eater


  Guided by a fairy befriended in the forest, we had arrived at the fairy's flower garden.

「Ooh~, it's a beautiful place.」
「Kyui~」
「Hoh~」
「Meeh, Meeh」
「~~! ~!!」

  Together with Boparu and Mizuki, I gestured toward the fairy dwelling and raised my voice in wonder at the beauty.
  The fairy was pulling on the ears of Aegis who was munching on the flowers at his feet.

  Oy. Aegis. Weren't you eating stew just before? Is it dumplings before flowers? No, maybe because he's eating these flowers, that doesn't apply...
(TN: This is a joke on a proverb that generally means to prefer food over frivolous things. I've also seen it used to refer to girls who would rather do boyish things and hang out with boys, something probably due to the manga Hana Yori Dango which itself a joke on the proverb by spelling 'dango' to mean 'boy' instead of 'dumpling'.)

  Good grief. Looking at this field of flowers, don't you feel anything, Aegis?

  Carried away by the wind, the pretty multi-colored flower petals beautifully danced in the air.
  While singing as they danced together, fluttering from flower to flower, the fairies danced and flew.
  While drool was scattering from the center of a huge flower splitting wide like a mouth, the enormous plant slashed with it's tentacles.

  ...nn? There's something strange, isn't there? One more time.

  Pretty multi-colored flower petals were flying up into the air, scattered and blown.
  Fluttering from flower to flower as if fleeing, fairies were flying and dancing while raising screams.
  Using its tentacles, a huge plant was trying to toss captured fairies into the split center of a huge flower that looked like a mouth.

  un. However I look at, isn't this is a crisis!?

「Boparu! Mizuki!」
「Kyui!」
「Hoh-!」

  Accurately understanding the reason I was calling their names, Boparu who had climbed on my shoulder to look at the scenery, hopped down and shot forward like a bullet, and Mizuki flew out to cover her.

Monster  Fairy Eater   Lv10
Status   Eating   Passive

  Too apt a name. Isn't it doing as it pleased too much?

「Aegis, you go too! This isn't the time to be eating flowers!」
「Meeeeh」
「~~!」

  With Aegis, and the fairy who led us here, I made my way through the flowers.
  Whether because the fairies moved by flying, the fairy garden didn't have hardly anything resembling paths, and the flowers grew densely up to about my shin height. It was nice and pretty to look at not long ago, but it sure was a pain to move through.
  I ran while tearing off the plants wrapping around my feet, resulting in a considerably decreased movement speed. Aegis was getting tangled up and falling over, and because something small like Boparu was almost completely covered in the flowers, I had no idea where she was.

「Guwaaaaaaaaaaa!!」
「~~!! ~!」

「Hoh-!」

  Mizuki let fly wind blade magic from her wings, severing a tentacle, and saving a fairy that looked like it would be eaten at any moment.

「Guwaaaaaaaaaa!!」

「Kyui!」

  While the Fairy Eater was trying to flail its cut tentacle around violently, Boparu who approached hidden in the flowers jumped with a backward spinning kick (somersault) launching the Fairy Eater probably twice my height into the air.

「Kyui~」

  From that. Clearly bracing her legs in mid-air, she jumped further. Giving a kick to the base of the flower petals, turning the face of the flower upward, and closing in on its fat stalk that had clearly become defenseless~ and...

「Kyui, kyui, kyui, kyui, kyui, kyui, kyui!!!!」

  Ultra-high-speed disorienting (chaos) kick. The opponent died.

  M-mid-air juggling... what the hell?!
  H-huh~? That's funny~. Was I playing a fighting game just now? Or rather, as expected, I didn't make it in time. Maybe it's just as well that Boparu took care of the opponent by herself this time, but I'm troubled that she's standing out too much. Aegis's motivation will decrease further... It would be terrible if we were isolated deep in the enemy camp, and if we got attacked while Boparu was charging, that would be troublesome too. And, she's not the main firepower.

  ...Well, in this case, because there was a need to rush in before the fairies were eaten, it couldn't be helped, but...

  Landing on top of the Fairy Eater which fell with a thud, Boparu, who was letting out a war-cry of victory while making a pose, was as cute as always~.

「O~y. Boparu~good work~.」

「「「「Guaaaaaaaa!!」」」」

「No way, a double push!?」(TN: From what I can find this is a gaming term related to two-stage battles or an extra spawn triggered by killing the first spawn.)

  No, since 5 of them came out, it's not a double, however...

  5 new Fairy Eaters rose up further away from us to surround Boparu who took down the first one.

「Let's crush them all! Mizuki, cover me and Aegis! Fairies, run away! Boparu... do something appropriate!」

「Hoh-!」
「Meeeh!」
「~~!!」
「Kyui!」

「The enemy just has a few low-rankers! We won't lose! Go!」

  Aegis turned around with me, faced toward the nearest Fairy Eater, and ran along a path made by trampling down the flowers.

  Kuh, since they were plants, Fire Magic seemed like it would be effective, but if I used it in this place, the fairies flower beds would get totally burned up.
  It was an utterly unusable magic!!

「『Water Ball』!!」
「Hoh-!」

「Guwaaaaaaaaaa!!」

  The quickly chanted Water Ball hit the Fairy Eater, but the damage wasn't great. Rushing to there, Mizuki let loose a follow-up Wind Blade, cutting and sending flying two of the opposite side's tentacles. Effective.

「Meeeeh!!」

  Having caught up with us, Aegis attacked with a tackle and started eating the thick stalk as it was.

「Guwa!」
「Meeh~~~」

  Aegis didn't let go, even when the remaining tentacles slapped at him. The tentacles were made to wind around the trunk, torn off and thrown away together with sections of the stalk that was being eaten.

「『Water Ball』!!」
「Hoh-!」
「~~!!」

  There, the second-stage Fairy Eater, hit by an Air Ball from Mizuki who prioritized the chant time... and a Stone Ball from the Fairies, was defeated.

「That's one. Aegis, nice fight. You were a big help!」

「Meeeh!」

  Clinging to the enemy and drawing the attacks onto himself, he gained time for the spell chants.
Just as a tank should. Taking distance from the enemy as the chants finished was also good. ...seems like a coincidence though.

「~~! ~~!」

「Fairy. You didn't run away? It's dangerous, you know?」

「~!」

  The fairy showed her spirit by doing a guts pose with both hands and puffing up the front of her small chest. Cute.

「It's like that, huh? Got it. If that's the case, how about assisting me? When it gets dangerous, you can run away, you know.」

「~~!」

「Alright! Then, let's go!」

「Hoh-!」
「Meeeh!」
「~~!!」
「Kyui!!」

「...nn?」

  In front of us who turned around to go take down the next Fairy Eater, the figure of Boparu came flying in head-first from the sky above the 4 piled-up Fairy Eaters...

「KyuiIiiiiii!!!」

「「「「Gu-, Gwaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!」」」」

  Flower petals scattered about the entire surrounding surface in the wake of Boparu's finishing-move like blow that tore through the tops of the piled-up Fairy Eaters and delivered a deathblow to all 4 Fairy Eaters' bodies at once.

  Woah, pretty~ ahhahahahaha.

  ...Boparu, she wasn't a cheat-type reincarnated person, was she?! She won't kill me in order to become independent, will she?! She'll continue to be our cute Boparu, right? Shiver.

「Kyui~」

  Extracting herself out from under the Fairy Eaters, Boparu came bounding at me saying, did I do great? did I do great? Praise me! Praise me!

「Yup~, alright, alright. You really did your best~! You did great~!」

  As expected, cuteness is an absolutely unchangeable justice! Because she's cute, isn't it fine~?
