Chapter Twenty-Eight: Yunmeng Spring Hunting
The little girl with red eyes and yellow hair kept a posture of a god and crumbled slowly down from half of the tree trunk and landed on the ground. Her dress fluttered and fell in accordance with gravity, covering most of her own body.
The monster faced the uninvited guest, and it even gave up eating for a while, and instead hobbled towards the little girl. The Yomi Youkai hurriedly lifted the dress from his face, and saw the expressionless dead face of the monster staring at him condescendingly between his legs.
"Ah...... Hello~"
The monster's little brain turned, but she couldn't find what to say with her simple thinking, so she could only say hello to the seeping monster in a cute way.
The monster stared at her for a long time, then stretched out a tentacle wrapped around her waist and lifted the little monster into the air.
"Well, thank you. ”
The monster withdrew its tentacles, and the youkai itself floated in mid-air with great skill. She stretched out her arms flat, and the whole person posed as a "ten", and she was carrying a panicked live rabbit in her left hand.
"My name is Lumia, what's your name?"
The monster had no concept of language in its mind at all, it just responded reflexively after hearing Lumia's voice.
“Guuuuhhh!”
"Hmm...... Is your name ga?"
“Guuuuhhh!”
"Is that all you have to say?"
“Guuuuhhh!”
"You can't actually speak......
“Guuuuhhh!”
"Is it~ so?"
“Guuuuhhh!”
"Well, it seems that it really is. ”
Lumia nodded, confirming her claim.
"So......" The Yotsumi youkai asked amicably, looking over the monster's shoulders and tentacles, looking at the remaining half of its body behind it, "Are you hungry?"
“Guuuuhhh!”
"Gollum"
Lumia looked down at her small belly that was coming from the voice, and nodded with concern:
"Me too. ”
"Let's eat. ”
Lumia floats towards the doe's carcass, but as she brushes shoulders with the monster, the monster suddenly opens its mouth and bites hard at the rabbit in her hand, catching Lumia off guard.
"Wow! wait!"
A layer of darkness instantly enveloped the rabbit and Lumia's palms, and the monster's indestructible teeth were blocked by that thin layer of darkness. The little monster pushed the monster's head away with his other hand, and said to it quite seriously:
"Don't eat the raw materials, Ling Meng told me that things will be more delicious after they are cooked, and we will eat them when they are finished." ”
“Guuuuhhh!Guuuuhhh!”
The monster was pushed away and still bit into the darkness, but it was never able to break through it. Although Lumia was not injured, she was disturbed by the monster and could not handle the food at all. The little monster stopped and asked helplessly:
"Are you really hungry? Don't bite, this is called the Zero Light Speed Black Domain, Ling Meng told me that this move will never be broken by anyone, even Reimu can't break it. So you can't just wait a little longer?"
Not only did the monster gnaw at that layer of darkness all the time, but it also wound its tentacles around it in an attempt to find the cracks in the zero-speed black realm. Seeing this, Lumia had to put her other hand into the darkness and pull off one of the rabbit's long ears and stuff it into the monster's mouth.
"Hey, you eat this first and pad your stomach, and you'll be fine soon. ”
“Guuuuhhh?Guh、Guh……”
The monster noticed the rabbit ears in its mouth, and it subconsciously crunched and chewed. Amazingly, the food that would have been devoured by its nothingness was always there this time, until it swallowed it.
The food fell through the esophagus into the stomach, and the monster wanted to experience more than ever, but Lumia was quite resolute, she hid the rabbit behind her back and pressed her right hand against the monster's forehead to prevent it from continuing to approach the food.
"It's okay! Don't eat it anymore! It'll be fine soon!"
“Guuuuhhh…… Guh!”
I don't know if I understood Lumia's words, or if it was simply because the zero-speed black field had cut off its perception, and the monster didn't try to grab the food anymore. But it suddenly turned to the corpses on the ground, and leaped to its feet to pounce on the pieces of flesh.
"Oh, that's not going to work!"
Lumia hurriedly stretched out her hand, and a semicircular layer of darkness shrouded the deer corpse. The monster's hands and face slammed viciously into the darkness, and its entire body slapped against the dark surface one after another, and then remained motionless, like a dead dog.
"Are you alright?!"
Rumia panicked, and she quickly flew to the monster, fell to the ground, turned his body over, and began to examine the wound.
“Guuuuuuuhhhhhhhhh…………”
The monster was unscathed, and even that dull expression didn't change, which made Lumia breathe a sigh of relief.
"Whew...... It's okay, I'm going to get some firewood, don't you try to steal it again, do you remember?"
“Guuuhh……”
Then the little monster laughed with satisfaction, and she stretched out her hand in recognition as if touching the monster's slender tentacles.
"That's good. ”
She shoved the rabbit in her hand into the darkness that protected the deer's corpse, and flew away.
After a while, Lumia returned to the monster with a large pile of dead leaves in her hand. She tilted her head and thought about it, then pointed her scarlet eyes at the ground, and half a black ball with a diameter of half a meter instantly appeared on the ground. When the black ball vanished, there was a perfect hemispherical crater, and the vegetation and soil were consumed by the darkness.
Lumia let go of her hands in the air, threw the firewood into the dirt pit with a "click", and clapped her hands triumphantly.
"Ling Meng told me that if you don't do this, it will be easy to burn the forest, and if you burn the forest down, you will have nothing to eat in the future. That's why I came up with this trick! I'm not very good!"
“Guuuuhhh!”
"Hehe~ yes, you think I'm awesome, right?"
Lumia landed slowly, pulling a lighter out of one of the pockets of her dress, and cautiously approached the firewood, lighting the flammable dead leaves.
"This is a gift from Reimu, she looks cold and bad, but she's actually a very nice person...... She also took me to catch the unicorn, but she had a very subtle expression when she saw me eat it...... Can't you eat a unicorn? Have you ever eaten a unicorn?"
“Guuuuhhh……”
"yes, you don't even know what a unicorn is. It's a big, crunchy bug with a single horn on its head. ”
When the fire was burning, Lumia grabbed food from the darkness beside her and threw it directly into the fire, but the little rabbit with the missing ear was not completely dead, and the desire to survive made it wake up from the dizziness caused by blood loss, and rushed out of the fire and ran as hard as she could.
The monster intercepted the poor little rabbit in an instant, grabbed the rabbit with both hands and put it in its mouth, and bit off the rabbit's head in one fell swoop.
