"Whoa, whoa!"

A roar like a broken gong rumbled, countless petals bloomed, colorful as if they were hiding poison, and in the center there was a huge mouth full of teeth, dripping with mucus.

In the depths of the living mouth, in the pale red body, the magic stone reflects the sunlight, and it is not dazzling when it flashes, but it attracts people's attention.

"It's not a snake...... It's flowers! ”

Seeing the monster reveal its true face, Tiona was amazed.

The slender body that makes people mistake it for a snake turns out to be a flower stem, and the head without a face is a flower bud.

The flowering flower monster that exposes its ugly appearance shows a clear will to Refia. It protrudes from the ground around it with countless tentacles branching from its body, and its body crawls towards its prey like a snake.

"Refia, get up!"

"Ouch - annoying, don't get in the way!"

Tiona and the others tried to run to her side, but they were attacked by the tentacles, and the yellow-green protrusions kept coming no matter how full of old fists they were, forming a jungle that was ready to move, hindering their progress.

Theogne's call was useless, and the monster was already close to Refia lying on the ground.

I don't want it! Move, move quickly! Refia yelled.

Covering the sun above, a long, large body. A black figure enveloped his body, which he had tried to get up several times. As for the disgusting man-eating flower, a mouth full of teeth dripping with mucus drooped next to Refia's face.

The screams around were so far away, the faces of the citizens who didn't have time to escape were pale, and they were so frightened that they couldn't move when they saw Refia about to be devoured, and they were in a panic and were taken by the guild staff and the imposters to take refuge.

I don't want it, I don't want it, Refia turned pale but didn't give up hope.

The girl thought in her heart: arms, legs, body, move quickly. It's good in any part, move quickly, stand up. She spurred her body, which could only tremble but couldn't get up.

However, time passed inexorably. Before Refia could cheer up, the ugly mouth was already in sight.

Ahh

The blurred eyes reflected the descending man-eating flowers.

Don't, don't, enough is enough.

The same. It's the same again.

Definitely.

I will, again-

"Ahh

Two rays of gold and silver light flew through the field of vision.

The fierce sword flash that beheaded the enemy and the brilliance of the beautiful blonde hair were imprinted in the eyes of tears of remorse.

I must have been protected by her longing for again.

The screams rang out, and the monster was slammed into a corner of the building with its severed head.

The thin sword that he swung with all his strength shone brightly, and Ace landed on the stone slab in a majestic manner, and then turned to the back.

Just as he was about to bite Refia, the body of the monster that had been cut off a moment ago leaned back, bent softly, and fell to the ground on the spot.

"Ace!"

The tentacles that attacked Tiona also fell to the ground as if they were out of force, which was really dangerous, Ace, who rushed here, thought Est.

As she struck down the four fleeing monsters, Ace saw this completely unknown and mysterious monster from afar—just like Theona and the others—and she was propelled by an invisible force to rush to the battlefield. She desperately drove the magic (wind) and slashed as soon as she rushed in, allowing Refia to save her life, but if she was a little slower, her life might be lost.

In the field of vision, Tiona and the others came towards them. Ace looked at Refia.

She was worried about the elven girl who was still lying on the ground, and wanted to rush to her side immediately, but the slight shaking of the ground slowed her steps.

The slight shaking then turned into a loud roar, and as Ace raised her sword, the nearby stone slab bulged.

"What's going on...... this?"

"Isn't it over yet!"

Beginning with Tiona's exclamations, the yellow-green body protrudes from the ground.

Surrounded by Ace, three heads, three heads of cannibals.

The closed buds bloomed in unison, and the huge mouth seemed to be looking down at her.

A warm exhalation landed on her cheek, and Ace raised her eyebrows, about to slash at the monster - without warning,

Crackling, after a cracking sound, the thin sword shattered.

“――”

"Ahh

"This—"

Seeing the destruction of the weapon in his hand, not only Ace, but even Theonne and Theona were speechless, and they were forced at that time.

Unable to withstand the output of the wind spirit and Ace's fierce sword skills, the slender slender sword finally couldn't hold it anymore and came to the end.

She's only been slashing and slashing until now - no, she thinks she's using this weapon as the Sword of Love. The broken blade of the sword broke like a taut string, creating a crack from the fracture and turning into pieces, telling it that it had long exceeded its limit. Suddenly, the silver light scattered.

Oops, I'll be scolded, Ace, who broke the substitute sword, the first thing that came to mind was this matter, and sure enough, we don't understand the natural worldview.

The man-eater squirmed, and in the face of three opponents attacking together, Ace dodged by jumping.

She slammed the bladeless blade hilt of her right hand into the monster's body, and it bounced back with a hard touch. Despite the wind force attached, the enemy's skin is only slightly dented and unwounded. After seeing this, Ace gave up her attack.

"Hey, why did it ignore us completely! This time it's time to target Ace? ”

"Is it a reaction to magic......

Although Theona and Theonne also joined the fray, no matter how they attacked, the cannibal only targeted Ace and disdained them.

She moves backwards from time to time, keeping the battlefield away from Refia, dodging in quick succession at the same time. The enemy pounced on the empty mouth and stabbed into the ground, biting the stone slabs. A large number of tentacle whips reached out to her, and Tiona met them, allowing Ace to dodge at the last moment.

"Ace, take the spell off! It's going to run after you! ”

"But ......"

"One person, one head, there will always be a way!"

The sinuous serpentine body slammed and beat along the way, knocking the vendors lining up on the side of the road into the air in one go.

Ace was forced to concentrate on her defenses against the monsters that pounced on her teeth and claws, and Tiona urged her several times as they passed by her, and she was about to undo her magic.

At that moment, a figure caught Ace's eye.

General public. Is it someone who doesn't have time to escape?

An orc child sits on the ground behind a roadside stand. She trembled with fear, and her eyes intersected with Ace's.

If you run away in the right hand side of the original retreat, the long and large body will definitely knock the little girl and the roadside stall into pieces.

Judging only for a split second, she turned on the wind currents to the maximum and wrapped them around her body.

Ace made a desperate attempt to retreat to the left-hand side that had been blocked, and then, being caught.

"Are you alright?" Refia fell to the ground in pain, and at this time someone stretched out her hand, and the warm voice came into her ears, and Refia, who had not been in such close contact with a man, turned red, and her pointed ears were already red to the root of her ears.

The slightly trembling hand was propped up on the ground, and the pain made Refia quickly calm down, and her body, which was trying to regain her posture, was slowly lifted up from behind.
